buddy who dont wanna move to arc..? lol..
Actually the neo will be better despite a smaller screen. It'll have a front camera and a music player with an equalizer for bass boosting (which I cant live without). Otherwise, it's the
Same phone. Though me personally ill be getting an optimus 3d because when my upgrade will be available, xda will be well equipped for it.
From my X10a running CM 6.1.3 by Wolfbreak and Swype Keyboard
this might imply that we will have an easier root method for our x10s when the 2.3.3 update comes =D

I don't... There are much better phones out there. The arc is a huge step backwards

I think that is a bit harsh. OK it may not be a big step forward from the X10 but it is better and is 'only' a mid range phone.

kudos to that too. Sony Ericsson has tried hard to make a good phone. but this year dual core android phones will dominate. With that said, I will still get the Xperia Arc if i can find a good deal.(under $500) Can't complain about the SE interface. =) With that said i'm very excited for the X10 gingerbread release and unlocking the bootloader. Hopefully we can utilize the full potential of the phone.
Well I just love the looks and design of it
Personally I just want to own it!!
And specs of the arc a lil better so I think once there are more devs for the arc then the development will be more progressive than the X10
It will be in my hands in the coming month or two

I dont think so, as the reason SE are not giving the update is that they need to "prioritise" on other SE products.
Thanks a lot SE....u suck!

Man i feel the same way too! Its just damn unfair. No more SE for me.
Anyway who cares about SE......devs at xda are doing a better job than them...and xda devs have already ported x10 arc firmware to x10...so basically who needs to crave for se support when owain the dude is at work.

Dude, if SE give the 2.3 update, devs might sit back and rest....as the only reason they were trying to crack the bootloader and all was to get the 2.3 modules/ kernels working on x10....now they are getting it, they dont need to do so.....though the update is coming in Q3, i hope we get to see our bootloader cracked before that...
Thanks to all the devs.
Even if se releases official update,devs would definitely continue to improve it.....and SE will definitely add a patch in 2.3 update so as to void the progress made my devs..but x10 devs do deserve a vacation in hawaii ;-)

You bet they do.
Hmm, I'm 99% sure, that dev's in our community will not abandon us. Well, from videos you can the laggy interface what Arc has...Running Froyo 2.2 on my mini, seems to be much better and fluid than GB on Arc.(Arc has also better hardware than mini does)
It might even benefit us as it might be easier to port X10 ROM to X10 mini/pro. Am I wrong?
I would think so too. Well - these phones did come in a rather turbolent time of the mobilephone market, so the fact that they drop the support isn't all that surpricing. They need to look forward like most other companies in these times - those who fall, is left behind

Dude it isn't easy at all..........the x10 has completely different modules......that is why it will be pretty difficult but not impossible though........hope to see gingerbread (with 2.3 kernels and modules) on x10 mini......

Hi all, since i heard the new xperia arc has its multitouch and 32fps cap removed, will the gingerbread upgrade come with it too? Will it also have a different kernal to allow wifi tethering? Will we also have like 16M colours?
I hope this would all happen

I don't know about the others but I'm pretty sure we will get the fps unlock. I would be stupid for se to lock it again

who knows? Anyone giving opinion here will be providing that, simply opinion. No one has any idea what the update will provide, as the press releases were very vague. Time will tell, I suppose.

Yep! Agreed!
And if you wanna stay on top of this gingerbread release follow Rikard Skogberg over at the official SE blog. He updates with new posts often, and when more news comes about what the X10 will and will not get with the gingerbread release you'll probably get it there first.
The only 2 things id like to see are 16m colors and 32fps unlocked. Oh, and hopefully they leave the EV control on the stock camera.

gingerbread in Q2/Q3 for X10 was planed not to impact ARC phone sale, given, clearing for X10 phone, without gingerbread, handly will ever clearing up the remining stock X10.
gingerbread already running with ARC, I do not see SE not able to deliever it, in my view, mostly, X10 gingerbread upgrade will end up same spec function with ARC. Also will never unlock bootloader to ensure, no impact to ARC sale business.

James
that depends if the boot loader gets cracked / sony unlocks the bootloaders
For all I know, I love this phone but all that keeps it down us the sluggy touchscreen due to the 32FPS cap and I hate it.
The colors would be good also.
multitouch was said to be impossible due to the screens structure, but in the update I would hope also that the dualtouch isn't add pathetic as it is now.
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
wifi tethering for sure as we can do that even now with apps like barnacle
and 32 fps cap would most probably removed..
but i am doubtful about 16M colors and unlocked bootloader
I just want root access in the gingerbread update.!
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
The modification on the camera department makes me worry that we will loose the goodies of the camera . But only time can tell what comes in and what goes out.
Hopefully the devs come up with a 2.3 mod so we don't lose the features.

A modified GB kernal would kick ass.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
The kernel for the 2.3.2 update should be 2.6.32pref9,the very same to the present kernel in the new Xperia products....
32fpscaps removal do not have too much hope.....SE will never give them such crisis.If we get it removed,most of us will keep our phone longer....They need people to butly their 3rd gan. Android phones.

Im pretty sure sony will modify the x10 add here in Australia, and I suppose other countries, the x10 is quite popular and common, and I do not think that a lot of people have heard of the Xperia arc yet.
The contract plan area here is almost dominated by there x10 and Iphone.
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
Is there a reason why the X10 comes with the 32 fps cap? Is it for battery life?
Yes,there is a reason.
The reason is that SE think that we will buy their new product by locking our phone

But this is not SE putting a fake limitation to their X10 Mini/Pro phones, Honeycomb was designed for Tablets by the Android developers themselves.
If they can do a fully working Honeycomb port, then all the power to them, but I won't hold my breath for it.
Well I would let a week or two go by..., maybe by then someone will have released sth..

I have to agree. Even if they fix the graphics, honeycomb is just gingerbread made big, with few new apps and tweaks. Don't expect that thing to fly.
Edit: now that i think about it, we would need apps to have tablet support too, and that would be catastrophic.

First I don't see the necessity of an OS made for tablets in our phones, second, honeycomb a big gingerbread ? Honeycomb is especially for tablets because it have a new interface, animations distribution, the android core is the same but campare it with gingerbread?
Finally honeycomb support both tablet optimized applications and normal ones.
Sorry for my English.

hi, ive saw some news about a new xperia line.
The xperia mini pro and mini.
you can see a vid here:
http://dailymobile.se/2011/05/05/review-new-sony-ericsson-xperia-mini-and-mini-pro/
the main diferences in x10 mini / pro and the xperia mini / pro is the CPU (1Ghz) and they come with android 2.3.
since they are very similar in others aspects... meybe some one can try to port the rom?
The new phones are using another hardware plattform and have more in common with arc, neo and even the x10 is closer related then the classic mini series.
They do have different arm generations, different camera sensors, different display resolution etc.
Porting their firmware to the classic minis is not easier then porting any other phones firmware

Yes but maybe we can do something, let's hope they have at least something in common ...
Anyway, our mini's/mini pro's rulz
they are build for ARMv7
i should say don't port it
that would be something like putting an 24 inch tire on a 22 inch bicycle rim

Hey, the new Mini have Multi-touch? LoL
Hey guys, first of all i want to thank all the developers for they help to make my x10 great. I dont know if I am writing on the correct place.. but whatever, i own a white xperia x10 and i want to change my phone and i am between Xperia x10 arc and Nexus S.. I dont know wich one to choose and wich one is better .. Which u think is better and why ? thanks
Id go for the arc, looks al lot better. And with the unlocked bootloader its got a nice future in terms of modding.
I'd agree, the Arc looks a lot better but out of the avaliable ROMs out there rdannar is coming up leaps and bounds.
He's doing a great ROM as part of X10Project that uses 2.3.4 and is based on the Nexus, but it easy to add the Arc filles that are dotted around through here using xrec like I ended up doing.
Arc for sure! And im not just saying that to be a SE fanboy. But if its possible, look at the galaxy s2 as well. Ive been looking at it more closely lately....and its got that "WOW" factor!

Believe me, it will be worth the wait to go with a dual core phone... The cpu in the arc will be outdated very shortly, better to go with a phone with some lasting power
+1 for sg2 although it hasn't got style but it's got substance, it's the opposite for Arc
Yeah im kinnda with you on this one arc as far as the looks go but s2 for its power (dual core nd all of that)
