Hi,
We all know there's an update coming -- supposedly bringing basic multitouch.
The file you found is just the latest build (since 2.1.A.0.390).

no rly new version: x10_x10mini_X10minipro_x8_eclair_2.1.A.0.435.tar
not .390
uploaded today

With it being such a minor revision, I think it's just a patch to the v 024 root exploit. Remember, SE is committed to giving us the best 2.1 available!

not dev related (more fyi), therefore moved to general

I'd rather have an ok 2.2/2.3 than an excellent 2.1 lmao 2.2 just adds sooo many new features...you don't really notice what you're missing until you use 2.2

Android 2.0

Has anyone got Android 2.0 working on the hero? Seems "Steve Kondik" has got it running on his G1.
http://source.android.com/
the community there did it, among others also cyanogen ;-) and they ported it to g1.
You MIGHT have read about it, but:
1: The code ported to AOSP isn't complete yet, and there are a few things which still don't work, like calendar.
2: ROMs running on the G1 were either ported from droid/sholes or partly, from the SDK.
Than again, the G1 has a 2.6.29 kernel, which the Hero doesn't.
A.
and HTC has announced that there will be an 2.0 update for the HERO, but when it will be released only they know...
> darn connection; dbl post <
no1 is currently working on 2.6.29 for hero. isnt it? tht means we will have to wait for the official release.

Im learning about this stuff as fast as I can but HTC will probably release it before I learn enough to port it. That said, I'm trying to become an uberdev

{Information}CyanogenMod for the Play

A few of Sony Ericsson's newest devices are queued up to get CyanogenMod Custom ROM. Thanks to recent code submitted by Diogo Ferreira, the bits needed to bring my favorite custom ROM to three smartphones in the Xperia family:
- Xperia Play: r.cyanogenmod.com/#change,7126
- Xperia Neo: r.cyanogenmod.com/#change,7128
- Xperia Arc: r.cyanogenmod.com/#change,7127
Currently the code to add these phones to the CyanogenMod family is awaiting approval to be merged into the CyanogenMod repository. Once that's done we can expect nightly builds to follow not long after.
From that point it's just a matter of time before Release Candidates and a Final Build is available.

Woohoo! I am getting a bit sick of my SE ROM, I want a Cyanogen!
very nice, i wasn't expecting official nightlies for our play's
Great!!!!!!!!!
Official CM7 on my Xperia Play is Very very Great
Come on!!!!!!!!
I'd like to hear word from the FreeXperia team. Are they maintaining CM7 officially?
At any rate, I already ROM Manager ready for action ^^
This is only for plays that are bootloader unlockable right? Any progress on unlocking the bootloader on simlocked phones?

We're making progress on CDMA phones.
The problem is that simlocked phones don't have RCK_H key so there's nothing to crack the unlock key from. But as said, I'll check it, I have some people willing to test.
Looks as though it has now been merged. Really looking forward 2 flashing nightlies. Cyanogen best mod by a looooooonnnnggggg stretch.
And just in time so that Verizon users can join the party
Hi, I am Diogo Ferreira (submitter of these patches)
I think you'd be happy to know that they are now already merged and in a buildable state with nightlies following soon.
This is not an alternative to FreeXperia work, it is FreeXperia work. We've been all working together to make this happen.
I'd be happy to answer questions you might have.

Hi Diogo. Glad to hear from you. Does this mean Xperias will be listed on CM homepage under supported devices, and will get official forum's section?
Given that most of the features worked already in the betas (great job by the FX folks), the main question for the Play resides on the camera. What's the status on that?
And for those people who have ROM Manager Premium, will the nightlies come through it as well?
No ETAS on camera. It will be done when it's done but we're looking into it.
As for nightlies, they should be available soon.
deovferreira, is the team making an official kernel as well to compliment the nightly builds? If we are using ROM Manager, then CWM Recovery is essential, and it would be great to have a kernel that had this built in, like the FreeXperia's team does now.
Also, will the ROM be generic for all users? I had quite a few issues with the radio yesterday on my CDMA Play when I tried FreeXperia's latest build. I just wanted to make sure that builds would support all versions of the play, not just the R800i.

What is on CM today is on par with what we did for FreeXperia, the kernel has a builtin recovery. You'll see instructions on this soon when nightlies start to hit.
As for CDMA, I am not aware what the differences are. I support a CDMA device (desire-cdma) but it is a PITA since I have no real way to test. What would be good is if someone steps up and tried to maintain a play-cdma port, I imagine the differences would be fairly minimal.

Awesome. The only reason I asked is because of how its different from other devices. The kernel always has to be flashed with fastboot. So I just didn't know how the updates would work or anything like that. I assume we just flash one to start the process and go downhill from there.

I agree completely. It appears that the kernel was working fine, there is just something in the CM build that was preventing the radio from working correctly. Logcat was telling me that it detected a CDMA mode and enabled it but then the phone module would crash. It was late when I started looking into it though and didn't do a lot of research, but I imagine that someone has encountered this with a CDMA port from a GSM cousin before. I'll do some more investigation this evening.
The boot will always have to be flashed separately using fastboot due to the way the sony ericsson bootloaders transforms the boot image on flashing. System updates will be done using the recovery, as usual. At some point the kernel and system may get out of sync, the symptom would be wifi failing to enable, at which point people would have to flash a new kernel.
As for CDMA, the RIL libraries should be different as should some settings in build.prop.
Awesome. I'll see what I can do this evening, and maybe even pump out a working build from the source for CDMA users.
Guys, stay calm.
this is FreeXperia CM7 "just" as official CM
So that is what you all wanted.
We worked over some time now with Diogo, all of us 3 ( Diogo, jerpela and me) have commited our changes, put them together and worked together.
All will be good See it as a surprise
I'm working for over 1 month now everyday on camera support. For now nothing new, but new knowledge
currently i'm looking into camera for new 4.x Firmware release, maybe SE changed something in a good way for us...
Best Regards

Just google for "dexter folio". First hit is dexters homepage. You will find a link to his current support forum there... He is not inactive, just moved somewhere else.
@Jon2555: I am not working on a 3.2 port. I don't know much about porting (this is basically the reason why i have not answered your pm yet, sorry). I prefer android versions that can be compiled from source.
I know that you don't work on 3.2 version but you have some skills and android 4.0 will open source and you'll can compile it. We're hoping

What about this update?
Something better?
I used Folio3x before, but too slow for everyday use.
Poor graphic performances.
Functioning quite well. Especially those who suffered from the button crazy.
Neutralize the buttons on the right side and only use the buttons HC.
Moved to proper forum.

Telus Update Info

Just figured I'de post this info I found on the website:
Code:
Notifications and updates: HTC One™ X+: Software update
Keep your smartphone running efficiently by using the latest available software.
As of April 2013, a new software version is available for the HTC One™ X+.
The update provides the following benefits and enhancements for your smartphone:
Bug fixes to improve Wi-Fi connectivity
Improvements for the Camera application to enhance photo quality
Minor bug fixes to address internal system errors
NOTE: Google is releasing this update in stages. Your smartphone will receive a notification when this update becomes available to you.
I know AT&T received an update as well so I'm not sure if they provide similar or the same fixes. Later today I'll flash back to stock to check it out and try to get a copy of the update file uploaded.
Noob question here-- I've rooted and am running elegancia...I take it I will have to wait for these updates to be incorporated into to the ROM by the dev (Steve0)?

If the updates and fixes haven't already been accomplished by the aftermarket rom/firmware.
This software update is just like the incremental updates a developer may issue with their rom. It's just on a much larger scale, and these updates aren't really something you need to be concerned with if you are running a replacement rom.
Do Not install it unless you're stock and have no intentions of using a custom rom in the near term.
Not working with custom roms right now.

Root for marshmallow?

As the title states... Is there a process to root marshmallow for the Z4 tablet?
Yeah, do check the info board at your local butchers store. I'm sure it will be announced there first.

same procedure as ...
So far (March 10th) SONY have not posted the sources for the kernel.
Going via GitHub is too much work for me...
And the sources there might not be a good match for their released ROM.
EDIT (after seeing the NEW version number in XperFirm at 23:00):
they lumped many devices together: http://developer.sonymobile.com/dow...rchives/open-source-archive-for-32-1-a-1-163/
I will have a look at the m*ss.
And might roll my own root...
@DHGE what is the link that you share justnow ?
is it for rooting ?
