Will we ever have... - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Will we ever see a real port of sense ? Not that i am a huge fan of it but i can say its nice im sure other users like it too we have seen all kind of roms in the dev section but we didn't see a single sense rom / port attempt i saw an honeycomb port attempt but the project kinda died and now im hoping zdzihu could take care of this since he's leaving the forum and i know he could do it because he's a beast .

To let you know, there is a Facebook group with xda started by xda developers and a Facebook xperia x10 group that the gingerbread man, a xda x10 memeber started. Give that a look for seeing who everybody is who joined Facebook.

new launcher/UI

Hi all, would it be possible to build a new launcher or ui/theme, much like one of the Iphone 5 mockups (see images).
I simply LOVE this concept and I think it would look great on our X10's.
Any take on this? Anyone willing to try to build something similar?
Wrong section...
Also, if someone was this good of a developer/designer they definitely wouldn't be using the x10..

It really is no use being so pessimistic...
I personally don't like it
If I find something good
I could think of designing it

Thanks.
Alright, so you don't like it. I respect that.
But could you tell whether it would be possible in theory or does this concept goes way too far from the original idea of Android?

Ok you design something even a hundredth as encompassing as that then...
Might as well just write your own OS then while you're at it
Guys,
this post was only meant so that I know whether it is possible or not.
Please play nice before it happens all over again (talking about banning)..
Thanks anyhow.
I think it looks pretty cool. Would be awesome if it had timescape integrated into it. Like the old timescape hone replacement.

Nice UI
hey friend,
this UI looks different from what we have seen since the 1st day.. dont u all think so..
this one is really cool.. well.. the bee hive icons not that cool but still blend with the overall layout and color..
it is definitely difficult but not impossible.. and lot of time consuming.. when many great devs moved on..
i think this has arrived a bit late to review by the devs..
anyways.. nice one to think again for the devs..
great going..
thanks..

[BOUNTY] For Porting MIUI ROM For PHOTON 4G

I would like to start a Bounty thread for anyone to make a working ROM of MIUI Rom.I would throw $20 in the pot to get this done.
Dont think in a negative way that I am trying to buy the devs n all.
I know there are lot of people around the world want this great ROM for our great Device.
I was using Motorola Defy for a a longtime with MIUI ROM installed from the first day & guess what now i cant even think about using the naked Android ROM and UI.
Friends out there:
Please help the Devs
Modslease edit or Delete the thread if it is against the Forum Rules & Regulations

This will probably be the next thing to be worked on after we get CM7 up and running. Which we're getting closer on. So you'll probably have to be patient Bud.
Miui on the photon lol? Yeah it'll be about a year before thats achieved. Dont hold your breath...
seeing as miui is 98% cm7 with very little else its honestly not that hard to imagine, however someone outside of the miui team wont have the necessary files to build from source
Is there another Motorola qHD device with a port? Looks like MIUIs only official Motorola phone is the Defy.
like i said once cm7 is going good im sure someone will pm warrtack as he is/was an miui member
I think it is in the works already actually..I remember seeing them saying they were working on a port on the miui forums...
From miuius twitter: @hunter7773 soon im working on miui for photon so as soon as its done port for electrify should be just a few changes

And from the forum a member claims to be working on one...the tweet was from October 11th so still pretty recent.

2fast4u has done miui ports for other deivces like the HTC Desire (CDMA) and is working on the photon atm
http://2fastroms.com/viewtopic.php?f=116&t=495
But from what I was reading, they don't have it booting yet and it has been put on the back burner for the time being.
I would be very happy & willing to chip-in for the bounty on this !!!!
My MoPho will be arriving within the next 2 days, and I'll be relinquishing my beloved Evo to my wife (her phone crapped out and she's waiting for the iPhone...we're on the sprint family plan, so we can't get them until all public need has been met --- probably can't get it until February).
Anyhoooooo I LOVE Miui on my Evo and have it running like butter. But the MoPho is alleged to get better signal quality (I live out in the boonies now with no 4G and a weak 3g signal) and I tether off my phone for most of my internet needs.
On a side note --- I just started cruising the MoPho forums - why are there so few ROM's for this phone? Seems like a great device with very little Dev support ???

Whos the most skilled android developer on XDA ?

You may refer one person per each post with a little backup words, on why did you choose him ?
The point of this question is to find that skilled developer and try to know how he started on developing apps so we can try do the same as he did
1 2 3 start!!
Ps: Dont forget to link his profile and his work too.
Studing maybe?

Im sure those ports are using CYANOGENS code. So, with that said, it is by far Cyanogen. 99% of the custom ROM's use code from cyanogenmod.
I admire cotulla because of what he has done for the hd2, but I'm more than sure we have devs equally and more talented, just don't know them.
$1 gets you a reply
u cant ask that
cause there are many more than good developers on xda

I couldn't agree more. All of the developers have their own niche. There are ROM devs, kernel devs, app developers.
Absolutely no offence to the op . It's kind of like asking who makes the best car parts (best analogy I could come up with off the top of my head ). There are so many parts that go into making that car work.
Edit: Thinking about it, maybe a better question would be "Who are some developers that you would like to recognize as being just plain awesome at what they do?" These are the people who do their best to improve the community by dedicating hours of their lives to giving away the cool "thing" they made without expecting anything in return. There are so many of those people around here.

[Q] is development here dead?

hey everyone... is development here dead or what? i saw ics was being worked on but got dropped. along with miui, a senseless rom, and others...
is there anything we can do to make more development here?
No development is not dead, if your new here, there are a couple things you should know. First, the dev doing all the work here, xboarder56, was banned I believe, he has his own forum and all of his roms are there. Nrgz28, an awesome dev, has an amazing rom. Faux123 has a kernel for OC/UV. Ics is being worked on by xboarder and a member of the cm team. A sense 4.0 port is on the works by a dev in xboarders forum. So, no, development is not dead. If we want more devs devving here, I think we should do what has been done before, a bounty. I believe someone has spoken to a member of the virtious team.
Edit: sorry, xboarder is working on an aosp build with texasice if you know who he is. And the cm team is working on, well, A cm9 build

Multiple different 3.0 ROMs, a 3.5 and ics in the works. Themes, mods, and toolkits can all be found. Feel free to change custom boot animation if you want. Haven't heard any update on miui.
Not sure I understand your question... What else do you need? Your question "is there anything we can do..." Yes there is something. You could always get s=off for us... There's like a 1k bounty that will reward you for your success.
I'll keep my fingers crossed and will be cheering for you

well i've personally never owned any htc phones. so when i get the amaze 4g, it will be my first. i've made many roms and mods for phones with vanilla android though.
what exactly is s=off and how do you make a htc phone "s=off"?
also, i dont see any boot logo changing threads...
heres my boot logo thread: http://androidforums.com/triumph-al...ed-converter-l-updated-12-29-1-20-pm-est.html
so if i am able to figure something out, i should have some goods to bring to the party!
how high is the chance of bricking on this device?

Can't change splash screen without s=off... Only animations. AFAIK, s=off is a security flag put into a system partition to prevent us from flashing new radios, flashing splas screens, or flashing kernels in recovery... HTC has made it more difficult for devs to access this and hack the exploit, so we are for now... Stuck. Team Revolutionary has hacked a few devices, but they don't have an amaze.
It's becoming a pain in the ass. Because the phone is a North American marketed device (vs a world market device)lacks worldwide development... And devs that are in the states that can get the phone don't want it because no s=off.
There's approx a $1k bounty out for whoever hacks it though.... Although nobody seems to be biting on it.
The Amaze forum is a mess... Lol but the phone is a beast.
Edit.... As far as I know, the phone cannot be bricked. I've yet to hear of any "real" brick... Only soft bricks that can be fixed.

its not dead but, I have a feeling its going to be soon. with the discontinuation of the amaze... the parting of xboarder and binary to their own forum. The forum has lost its momentum. what is left from development is from before. compared to the sgsII forum, you can def call the amaze dead on development. yes xboarder is working on ICS and cyanogen is planning of an AOSP rom. I think we will see no other kernel developers besides faux, unless it's for ICS.. and I think the developers we have now are the only ones that we've got. With the anouncement of new HTC phones more developers are going to shift gears...some developers from here might even shift gears...they might send us an update on a rom here and there but that'll be it. if you look at the development of successful phones such as the nexus one, samsung vibrant, galaxy nexus etc, all of them are still going very very strong even though they came out 2 years ago, the vibrant a 2 year old phone already has multiple ICS roms available, multiple kernels, etc. we're pretty much done here. the developers we have here had to be bountied anyways. My personal opinion is that there is no interest left in the amaze development wise besides a couple of developers....sorry but have to be realistic.

Sensation gets mad love, why?
I've been looking at what's been going on at xda & it seems like development for the Amaze is moving but not as fast as the sensation. Is it easier to develop for that phone than it is for this one. I known this phone has more power than the sensation so why are there so many ROMs for the sensation. Thanks for all your help guys.

I am going to wait and see how the new phones that T-Mobile gets. If the One X has more development, might as well to switch over with something that has more activity.
I would say there are two main differences between this phone and the Sensation. (1) The Sensation is owned by far more people (ergo, more developers), and (2) Development is more difficult without S-off. I'm just guessing here, because I'm not a developer, but those seem to be our biggest problems.
