what info do you want exactly?
It's a custom 2.3 rom
You need to root your phone, then install xrecovery, then flash the baseband with flashtools & then flash the rom's zip file with xrecovery
If you follow the steps in my first link (the one to Sony) you will be rooted and have xrecovery installed.
Then the fun starts.
The geniuses (geninui?) on here have Custom Roms which you can install through xrecovery.
The rom is basically your operating system. You are most likely on stock SE 2.1 which is OK but any time I have had to go back I ain't stayed long.
I recommend 2.2 its a good way to start and it's solid. Also sync your contacts to gmail.

Hi friends,
I liked the face detection and smile detection in the default camera app in the stock 1.6 ROM.
I presently installed a custom CM 6.1.3 ROM and i would like to revert back to 1.6 stock for the camera purpose.
Please let me know how can i possibily downgrade to 1.6 Stock.Pls provide any links with such information.
No need to go back to the shockingly bad 1.6 to get stock camera as the custom 2.1 ROMs have it. Try Bitsnacker as it is smooth, stable and has what you are looking for. There is a thread however with the 1.6 ROMs if you must - have a search.
so bitsnacker has a camera app with face detection and HD camera?Please provide me the link for the ROm as im facing difficulties in finding the correct one.
Im now using CM 6.1.3 gingerbread V01.so do u think i shud flash bitsnacker now

The theme is an awesome looking one,
but i would prefer flashing the stock rom and putting the bitsnacker theme in it instead of the bitsnacker rom itself.
Keep in mind that bitsnacker theme has a lot more features/icons that are missing in the rom.
do this
first of all download any global generic 1.6 firmware of x10i
it will be .ftp extention...
then put this file in flashtool/firmware folder
then put ur x10i in debugging mode and connect with pc with flashtool opened first ...
when it detects ur phone simply click on flash and select flash mode and then the firmware which u kept in firmware folder....thats it... let it flash
I am running freeX10-beta4_zdzihu on my x10i with android version 2.2.1, baseband version 2.1.54 and kernel version 2.6.29.

I saw upgrade procedure where requirement is stock SE 2.3.x fw.
But I am looking for upgrade from custom rom freex10.

I like to use FreeXperia Rom. My baseband is 2.1.54. I have not found a FreeXperia ROM for my baseband yet.
As far as I know there is no Gingerbread ROM that is running everything as FreeX10 does.
The developers are waiting for the open source stuff to be released by Sony Ericsson to complete their ROMs, it should be available in a couple of weeks after has released it, they already have working ROMs that lack some functions.
EDIT: Our friend zdzihu did it again!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208145

The best one is the one you like best and does the job for you. Anything anyone says here will be their subjective opinion. There's nothing wrong with that, but you should try them all.
Hi everyone.
I've been reading the new nAa's post about nightly MiniCM7, and it say we need the latest 2.1.1.C.0.0 SE firmware.
I'd like to know how to upgrade, because as i know, pc companion does not provide this firmware. Also i read about 3g and other problems after installing 2.1.1.C.0.0.
So, what do you guys know about 2.1.1.C.0.0?
Thanks a lot. I own an X10MP with 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware.

I'm not sure what problems 2.1.1.c.0.0 has as regards to data/3g networking, but if you want it there are a few roms based on this version that are just modded stock firmwares in the x10minipro dev section.
Try these on your phone, and if they pose no trouble for you, use them if you want to produce your own MiniCM7 build.
This one for example.
Ok..that *clean* rom is based on 2.1.1.C.0.0.
So there's a stock (official or not) 2.1.1.C.0.0 firmware? That's the thing i need to try de nightlys MiniCM ?
Thanks buddy. You allways help me :good:

Yeh, the underlying system is what you need, and that's the correct version so it should work. The guy that made that just removed a lot of useless apps to maximize it for internal and ram space and make it faster, but the base system is still stock firmware.
Hi guys!
After many problems with IMUI and CM7 finally i instaled stock froyo 2.2.2 (thanks to TheManii for the host), but unfortunately the root methods on the net are older than my 2.2.2 froyo version (thunder 325).
I tried with:
SuperOneClick versions: 1.5.1, 1.6.5, 1.9.5, 2.1.1, 2.1, 2.3.1 and 2.3.3
Z4Root
Universal AndRoot
Unfortunately i could not root my device. There is a manually method to root froyo on my dell venue? There is another method to get it?
Here the specifications:
ADROID 2.2.2
BASEBAND GTOUB1A132500-AWS
KERNEL 2.6.32.9-PERF
OEM VERSION GTOUB1A132500
BUILD NUMBER 17232
Thanks a lot!!
Sorry for my english
