[Q] SE x10 mini pro - some quetions - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Guys! And thanks for offering this great ressources.
I have to admit, I had an Iphone until a few days ago and all this stuff is pretty new.
For now, i managed to get root access install custom roms etc . i tried around and get comfortable with the phone.
My big problem, I got an x10 mini pro & for me its absolutely neccessary that the browser supports flash since i want to play rushpoker xD, on my phone.
So either i find a way to get flash running, or I must buy a new phone
I tried a lot of custom roms, but there are sooo many of them, and i am just stuck at all these informations, i just dont know what to choose etc. so i need a little help there from some of the more experienced users. And yes, im aware that there is something called a search function, but, hey, i just dont want to try & try & try.
Can someone tell me which version of custom rom is the best for my x10 mini pro to get flash working? thanks
model# u20i
2.1 update 1
baseband m76xxtsncjolym 53404006
kernel 2.6.29
build 2.0.a.0.504

SE X10 Mini pro help needed

I have just bought my wife a SE X10 Mini Pro I want to install full english firmware as there is some chinese language in the phone aswell as English. I have searched this forum and have found some stuff BUT I want to do it right. I dont want to screw it up so I would like to help if thats ok. Can someone link me up to exactly what I need, both flashing tool and the correct firmware. I have flashed a SE K850i with generic fw without too much trouble. I take it this phone is a whole different kettle of fish??? Any help with this would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance guys. Im not too worried about rooting it, I just want to change the FW.
To let you know, you will get the best answer from the xperia mini forum itself if you look there and post there.

You need to make sure your flashing a ROM from the X10 Mini section NOT the Mini Pro. They don't work on each other.

about phone model it's not problem, you can edit in buildprop if yuo want back to U20a.
For 3G problem :
1. Check if you not enable use only 2G networks
go to setting > wireles & network setting>mobile setting (don't enable use only 2G networks)
2. Check APN setting if that right
3. Check if you in 3G area.
Ok.. did some findin... u20a and u20i seem to differ in their modem only
READ PAGE 6 HERE FOR INFO
so i guess they'l have different basebands. I dont understand why it would affect ROM's...
Did you try what stiv8785 said in previous post?
EDIT1:
Regarding what the about screen says, dont worry about u20a r u20i. check to see if you have same baseband with stock firmware and minicmpro roms.

[Q] Downgrade

Hello all.First of all I would like to thank all the xda developers whos always hard at work improving our cell phones with bunch of cool programs
Im a complete noob at all this but with your instructions I managed to install GINGERDX on my Sony xperia mini 10a (american version)
Now my problem is my wifi could not find a network now after upgrading my rom. I was able to use my own network when Im here at home when I was running 2.1 on factory xperia
Is there a way to revert back to factory 2.1 like if it came stock on the mini 10 or before I upgraded to Gingerdx?
I might be selling the phone and just wanna make sure that I can downgrade it back to 2.1
Another thing that concerns me is that using my pc companion now when I plug in the phone it doesnt give me the option like charge phone and theres few more options on the screen and cant remember now..lol
Also when I look at the Phones info it says X8 on the model number ,could this be that I downloaded GINGERDX for X8 or both X8 and X10 share the same platform?
Any help is greatly appreciated guys
Thanks in Advance

Hi
If you're talking about the x10 mini, this might be the wrong forum...
Anyway, you could try the repair option using SEUS.
Good luck!

Here you go.

There is no official ICS firmware for our devices, SE never even gave us a frozen yogurt, so the only way to get ICS on your phone is either MiniCM9 or this one, which is based on ICS sources.
Oh, I thought that you was searching a kernel for android 4.0.4 . The thread i gave include's a link to a kernel that support android 4.0.4 (CM9).
great thanks SmG67 .... is there any way to adapt the SK17i file for the U20i ?

Nope, sorry, the SK17i runs on a newer SoC than ours, and they're not compatible.
You would have to recompile it all from source, which is what the provided links have already done for us , they are really the only options for our phones.
ok; we'll keep CM9 .... great thanks SmG67

upgrading new u20i
Hi guys, I'm new here. I recently bought new xperia mini pro u20i and I don't really like the old OS in it. Thought to upgrade to ICS but the problem is that I'm not experienced at all in these android update&upgrade things. (I'm mostly a computer guy ) I've read instructions how to upgrade etc.. but I'm not risking do it alone although I rooted my phone few hours earlier (whatever that means ) I need someone experienced to show me either on Skype or any other IM step-by-step how to upgrade my OS before I go crazy about it ICS seems like a cool upgrade and I want to try it out. Reply here or PM me, doesn't matter. Please just help me to accomplish this task. Appreciate it. Thanks in advance ))

Start thinking of your phone as a computer... It will make things easier.
Root access (which is easy to come by on Windows, but usually needs a password on linux) allows you to tinker with your system-files.
And there is a tutorial around here somewhere, where the poster has gone through the trouble of making screenshots for every step needed, so maybe you could search for that.
