Just got this great news from gsmarena.com. follow link.
www.gsmarena.com/pinch_zooming_now_available_for_xperia_x10_the_x8_is_bugfixed-news-2278.php
Sorry guys the gsmarena gave wrong info. The SE blog clearly says that the pinch zoom is only for the bigger x10. Mods, please delete this thread.
update maybe for the X10 family!
I've read this post on the SE site and it appears that the update is in fact,for the X10 family?The post goes on to state and I quote,"For the mini products and the Xperia X8 we also have enabled the ANT+ support in the chipset".The "also" probably points to my above reasoning.Hope is life!

I am also hoping for the best. But SE blog has specifically underlined the word "only" while stating Pinch Zoom available "Only for X10". But then again let's see.
se-first posted this article http://www.se-first.com/Dualtouch-Update-for-X10-rolling-out-now.html ...just today
In X10(the big one) you can have pinch zoom.
I asked SE UK on twitter and they said that only the X10 will receive pinch-zoom.

OK... I could not reply to a thread in the developers section as I have less than 10 posts but I have been reading through the forum for some time now and one member here interested me when he stated that he contacted the SE hotline in France and they confirmed to him that X10 Mini Pro would recieve the 2.3 update.
just call'em and you'll see.
They haven't been working on froyo but now they know that they can do a good ROM for the SE mini pro so it's comming soon.
the numbers to call Xperia custommers service is just right there...

Well basically I have done the same thing but in the UK and have confirmed to me that they will NOT be giving further updates for the X10 Mini Pro.
I believe the only thing we can do is concentrate on cracking the bootloader.
Let's stop kiddings ourselves here, armv6 doesn't support flash 10.1 and multi-touch is really not ideal for such a small screen for the X10 Mini Pro. I can see why SE would not bother updating our handsets.
Just as the title...
Can min Pro have double touch??
Thanks for answer...
from what I've read from previous threads, YES, it can, but not just yet.
THANKS...you give me faith...

Can anyone confirm Multi touch for x10 Mini NOT Pro
Saw the blog here.. Seems Xda team did it again. Is it supported on X10 mini as well?
nope. mini and mini pro have different hardware on MT so there should be a different script for the mini

you mean X10 mini will never have MT? I think both have the same screens. Am I right?
I saw an article on endgadget but cant port links since my posts arent yet 10 but I will quote it
However, this one isn’t your usual run of the mill rumor. Our friend Michell over at se-blog did a little bit of research on his own. He managed to contact Synaptics, who are a supplier of touchscreen technologies and learned that the X10 mini sports a ClearPad 2000 solution, which means it supports dual touch, which is the basic form of multi-touch. It may not be available out of the box due to the device launching with Android 1.6 onboard, but it’ll certainly be enabled once the Android OS is updated.
Strangely, Synaptics is the supplier for only the X10 mini and not the X10 mini pro. Is it because Sony Ericsson thought that the mini would be crippled due to the lack of a physical keyboard and hence opted for the technology to provide a better experience? No idea. Sony Ericsson do have a knack of taking strange decisions, this one being another addition to the list.

Actually the reverse is happening. Now I am seeing multitouch on X10 mini Pro but not X10 mini

I'm sorry, you will never have MT , engadget its the worse gossip publisher, and no, Mini pro have different digitizer (CYP-CY8CTMA300), better than mini, better than even big X10, capable with multitouch, and no dualtouch like X10 (Clearpad2000), or single touch like mini (Clearpad1000).. sorry, but let it die!

better than even big x10，capable with multitouch， meanting that pro can have more than two finger touch ？？？
Sent from my U20i using Tapatalk
? Why is Mini Pro capable of while Mini isn't?! I mean Mini relies only on its touchscreen whereas the Pro might even add functionality to some apps with the keyboard.
Anyone knows the answer why SE chose for that? (was mini released before the Pro i.e.? Or maybe loves the Pro more, like I do? ).
This was posted by Rikard in his blog...check out the comments section on the blog in the post named We’re Co-sponsoring 500Gs, Glu Game Dev Competition..this is what he writes...
Hello guys we are very sorry for not updating you, our beloved customers. Our developers finalize that on june 15, 2011 the expected Gingerbread update will be out. After this update our developers will focus on other models such as x8, mini and mini pro to be updated on 2.3

Hi all,
Removed a fake comment.. Like Shaggy said: It wasn’t me..
Sorry for keeping you waiting – I hear you! Unfortunately as I said in the post around Facebook inside Xperia a while ago I’m still waiting for the final details on scope to be able to get a more detailed post out on Xperia X10 Gingerbread. Will take a while longer before it’s all final but not more than a few weeks tops. Timeplan for the actual update being released is still around the shift from Q2 to Q3, i.e. end of June or July timeframe.
Should really just delete this thread, since it's a known fact that the x10 will get an update, and the only relevant part turned out to be false, this just makes people get their hopes up for no reason.
Damn, for 1 minute I dreamed with that.
hi read this & understand what they say
http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/2011/03/25/update-on-xperia™-x10/
Will you upgrade the XperiaTM X10 mini, mini pro and XperiaTM X8 to 2.3?No, we have no such plans. We have had to prioritize our resources and have therefore focused on delivering the upgrade to XperiaTM X10.
Well im talking about new launching xperia mini & mini pro NOT xperia x10 mini & mini pro
Guys i have a suggestion..... Let me know your views.
Well i think this way,
Since SE is not planning on giving any upgrade to xperia x10 mini & mini pro...But is going to give it to the new xperia mini & mini pro which SE is launching.....
I think we should all convince SE to give out an offer for existing xperia x10 mini & mini pro users to exchange their xperia x10 mini & mini pro for new xperia mini & mini pro (which they are lauching or i guess launched in some places) @ a minimal cost say between 20% - 50% of the new launching xperia mini & mini pro or whatever we all agree on???
Cant we trying doing this....?
XDA has lot of members & i think wid all this no. of members we can atleast try???
There's already rumours about the 1st gen mini & mini pro getting 2.3.
The newest source (Vodafone Australia Blog) has said they could be working on it within 6 weeks or less. So things are certinly looking good for those who have the older xperia range.
This is recived 2 weeks after it was announced that the x10 would get an update to 2.3 due to demand.

Odd, why would a carrier just drop a whole range of phones like that?
and oh yes, i heard it from vodafone staff too when i first bought my MP. but i didn't buy it too long after the 2.1 update, so i wasn't too fussed about the software, the design was what sold this phone to me
and then... i found you guys and all was good!
but now (mini pro) we have the full 5MP camera (not sure if the mini has it yet) in our custom roms im not sure that there is a point to getting it as on the x10 they didnt even update the kernel so i doubt there woould be any benefits unless they enabled multi touch further than we have from slades driver (e.g 3 point or the full 7)
Already have it.
Yeah to have the official one would be nice.
it's an aquired taste, some people don't want all the extra in the roms like Cyanogenmod. and just want the official upgrade

Dude thats just for x10 mini pro....
what about x10 mini???
i think guys we should all come together for this & demand together @ SE community site either for upgrade or my idea...
Hi!
Thanks svetius: we have separate forum for our devices. All relative threads will be moved here.
Please, use appropriate tags when starting new threads (only if the thread is device-specific):
[MINI PRO][SK17] for mini pro
[MINI][ST15] for mini
[ACTIVE] for active
Don't forget that there's "i" and "a" versions of the devices, e.g. SK17i and SK17a, which are a little bit different in baseband. If the thread is about particular version add appropriate letter to model tag (SK17i instead of SK17 etc).
For example:
[MINI PRO][SK17] Fastest custom ROM ever

Yes im agree with you, we need new subforum about xperia mini and mini pro, its really good phone with reliable price
yes i agree too...
i'm planning to buy this droid, and i want to customize it...
so please create forum for SK17i and SK15i...
thx...
i'm agree with you, sooner people will start to discuss about xperia mini / pro.
we need new subforum for better place to discuss and also develop this phone. so we didn't post in wrong subforum.
agree too...
Agreed!
Definitely need a forum because it's hard searching for info regarding the Xperia Mini and Xperia Mini Pro due to the fact that the name is near identical to its predecessor.
+1 ......................
Agree. New forum please.
I support +1
Just make a new forum it shouldn't take that long.
yup, this phone is mini but powerfull
I had bought SK17i. It was very good device for me.
I agree
I've got a new SK17i
I haven't bough it yet, but I want to bough it in few days later and it would be good if we had a forum for X10 Xperia Mini II (SK17).
cheers
New forum would be awesome! the sk17 is a damn nice little phone!
Should this thread be a poll to get numbers / worth of potential new forum? otherwise it just feels like spamming.
Have also recently purchased sk17i.
