installing a theme - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

hi there
.
.
will installing a theme wipe my phone!? do i need to back up everything before i install the theme?? i want to install via xrecovery
.
.
thank you

Hi,
as far as I know installing a theme will not wipe your phone but it is good to wipe your
phone before installing a theme.
If you want to go back to your previous condition-after installing the theme-you must
back up before you install the theme.

if i already have a theme installed . . and i want to change t . . just install the new theme via xrecovery over the old theme and everything will go fine?!

installing a theme via xrecovery doesn't change any system settings or wipe data

create a backup in any case have to be good gotona

Make a backup in xrecovery before you install the theme.
Better safe than sorry

thanx guys

I installed Gingerbread yesterday, and I didn't do any backup at all, only of my contacts. I found out later that it DIDN'T delete anything on my phone, not apps or anything.

Hi guys
Does your phone need to be rooted?
Or can i just use xrecovery to install a theme?

i downloaded it and install there is superuser install but how do i know my phone is rooted ?? can u say how to use set cpu ??
To see if your phone is rooted, a simple way is to access apps like Terminal Emulator. Type su and you should see a pop-up. For setcpu, just do a simple search on the internet
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
if u have superuser icon just open it and check if it loads properly while cpu can be obtain by downdaling set cpu from market but i am not sure if it works with froyo or u might get kernel panic frequently so install stock rom try mik cm7 2.3.3 gingerbread or if u want froyyo custom rom go for any u feel like there are many in devlopment but i personaly like cm 7 and u can set cpu its pre installed in the version and u can set cpu to above 800 but below 800 works awesome and most games are playable witout any lag proceed with installing recovery

look somtimes it does happen just download titanium backup and check if it is getting root permission or not.try 4-5 times if it fails then let me know. u do have superuser icon in application isnt it.
here are the procedure to install gingerbread root.
-copy all files from sd card to pc(backup)
-now format sd card fat32
-place the gingerbread apk 1.20 in sd card.
-now enable usb debugging settings-application-development -usb debugging (check the box)
-install gingerbread apk using file manger .
-press root and wait .the phone will reboot if it doesnt wait fr some time and see -if it works if not remove ur battery and reinsert ,switch on check if u have superuser icon in application.
-get titanium backup as it will ask u fr root rights if it install than ur phone is rooted or get terminal emulator from market and see if that works.
-now if titanium works proceed with installing recovery and then custom rom
it is working in p500 some user in xda had confirmed it so follow instruction properly if it doesnt than follow thw long process of downgrading and rooting with z4root

[Q] want to do my own rom... what do i need?

hello
i want to create my own rom for the xperia x10
what programs do i need for that?
and can i modify an existing rom? want to understand how making roms works first, so my question is if i download a custom rom, can i modify it for my personal purposes? for exampe by removing some apps...
thanks for ur help
Taking out apps is easy.. use titanium backup. Ifyou want to mix them use a kitchen. If you want to build one use linux and download google source and edit.
