O.K.. I finally made the upgrade from my old E10i (Mini) to a Neo..
I've been comparing phones for months now and chose the Neo for its Superior Camera, forward facing camera for skype calls, Dedicated HDMI port and the recent news of the Live dock which will enable USB Hosting.. (It was a bit of a toss up between the Samsung Galaxy S2 and the Neo.. the price of the Neo won out in the end)
I will get the Neo in a couple of days (its been ordered and payed for)
Now.. I have screwed with my mini so much (it had features missing that I really needed... Dual touch, Flash Video, Apps to SD, Froyo then Gingerbread, Clockwork recovery, Wifi tethering etc) so it needed to be rooted and hacked.. but what features are really missing off the neo? (its already running gingerbread)
Do I need to modify it? or is it actually quite good out of the box?
Does rooting, unlocking the bootloader and loading custom Kernel give me any real benefits (apart from CPU overclocking?)
(as a new member of the Neo Forum.. moving over from the mini I'm asking for your advice)
Any thoughts??
Cheers

Till now I didn't see the reason for unlocking the boot loader. Just rooted the phone to get the clock sync to work. Without rooting, clock setting can be down to minute only - OS bypass any time difference less than 30s. Rooted OS permits to set the clock correct.
That's the only real reason for me to root the phone. Other than that were just for fun.
Out of the box it is quite good, except for the bloatware and useless shortcuts in the app drawer. Get your phone rooted and delete the bloatware (it has 2 app screens of 16 apps full of bloatware). Also move some apps to the system app partition, because the app memory is not so big (a lot bigger than the E10's, but still too small).
Unlocking the bootloader can be useful, but it's not necessary for most mods. Fact is that we can relock the bootloader easily. The only disadvantage from unlocking the bootloader is that DRM won't work after unlocking, so the music like button in the stock music player (which I never use) and TrackID won't work, even after relocking. Still, you can use Shazam instead of TrackID.
I wasn't able to root my Neo for 2 months, but it wasn't that bad. Especially after the latest update, you don't need root because screenshot making is native. I only experienced that I filled the app memory very fast.

If you install some apps, they install that location data/app. This partitions size is not the biggestone. If you have root you can easly remove bloatware and move the most needed apps to system/app partitions. Beacause system/app partitions have about 150+ Mb free space after you delete bloatware. Use search and you find in arc forum a thread wher is complete list app what you can delete and remove

Holy Crap!! I forgot all about the bloatware!! Its been so long since I actually used a Stock setup on my mini I forgot about the bloatware component!! eeeek! well, that's probably the biggest plus for rooting! (that and moving some apps to System, eg.. root explorer etc..)
Thanks guys! will be rooting as soon as she gets out of the box!

With doomlord kernel is overcloking "insane"
Stock 1Ghz
Doomlord kernel 1,9Ghz
I use 1,4Ghz smartassV2 and its da bestone. I even downgrade my 2.3.4 back to 2.3.3 because new kernel relase is "nobody know"
And battery....da best
And YES rooting is strongly RECOMENDED but ALWAYS your desicion
Regards!
Taavi
I would recommend rooting your neo for the following reasons.
a) removing bloatware
b) overclocking (however in 2.3.4 this is not possible until doomkernel is updated, but still.)
c) you can do quite a few mods that require root that are pretty cool with the phone.
enjoy using your neo

Hi guys,
I haven't got the phone yet (ogling the Mini Pro, counting my money), but I'm wondering what hints you have for reducing crud on the current batch of Xperia phones, without losing the (full) functionality of Xperia launcher & widgets.
So, assuming you have root and wish to uninstall programs from /system/apps, which ones would you delete?
(I'd like to keep full xperia functionality, since I really like the look of the default launcher and some of the widgets)
once i've got mine rooted im removed that daft pop cap games rubbish! also all the office tools and other things i dont need, i like to have mine as slim as possible with only the things i'll use left on, my x10 mini pro has everything removed that can be

Before installing CM i was on a rooted stock ROM with plenty stuff removed. I had 80+ MB more RAM available after the cleanup. I didnt have any kind of memory issues before, and while some say that free RAM is wasted RAM, its even more wasted if its been used by apps you dont need.
From what i remember, I've removed: everything related to timescape including all widgets and extensions, extensions for music player, xperia stock launcher, many android and google services (anonymous stats collection, google partner setup and some other google ones, and many others...), popcap and other miscellanous 3rd party apps and so on.
I cant recall all of it, but basically everything that you can recognise by the title and dont need, you can remove. Like stock calculator, launcher, widgets...
If you would need help later on, just post here a list of services and ill try to help.

I didn't root as long as it meant I had to unlock the bootloader, but I did it now that the ZergRush method existed
Now I'm trying to remove some software, but I don't manage to do so.
In a (su) terminal on the phone, I went to /system/app and tried to rename/remove some .apk that I was really sure I didn't need (like magicboxinstaller.apk) but it says that the file system is read-only. Can I remount the filesystem from inside the terminal on the phone, or do I need adb?
and what's the syntax to remount?
Another thing:
I'd like to remove the following stuff:
- magicbox
- popcapinstaller
- fun & downloads
- playnow store
- mobistar tv (related to a local provider, you won't know this probably)
Any idea which apk's these map to? (I'm guessing magicboxinstaller.apk = popcap installer, but the others???)
thanks
just install root explorer and delete files. probably easier than terminal, and you can set it to RW

I used adb for it. When rooted open a command prompt, navigate to adb's place, type in:
adb
su
exit
adb remount
adb
And now you can delete everything.
You can roo it. There's a thread about what apps are save to delete. Kinda funny how i have officesuite pro and the trial crapware is still there.
I you have busybox you can do busubox mount -o remount,rw /system I did it to modify some keyboard layout related files.
Good luck with your apps
just install system app remover, its much easier
I would recomend using the ZergRush-method if you care about DRM, warranty or bricking.
What I did on my Xperia Active was to first use ZergRush to get root access using ADB.
Then installed SuperUser and 'su' binary, as well as busybox 1.19.
Then install Titanium Backup (ROOT), and start removing bloat.
The nice thing about using Titanium is that you can backup the different parts you wish to remove, and thus reduce the chance of breaking og loosing desired functionality.
Personally I must say it really makes a difference.
Before I regullarly experienced, when going back to the home screen, a complete redraw as a consequence of memory being flushed.
After it has not happened once.

Root and full functionality
I rooted my last phone (x10 minipro) so I could store apps to sd. I haven't yet rooted my 2011 minipro, partly because I would lose certain functionality. The video player for Android Market movies will not run on a rooted phone, nor will some other apps (like magazine subscriptions), because they require DRM for copyright protection. Just something to consider before rooting your phone.

With the ZergRush method you don't lose anything. (unless you really want to have a recovery)
Rooting in itself works fine without unlocking the bootloader and therefore, without losing any DRM

Ok so Here is a link to Cyanogen Mod 7 which is a custom rom for all New xperia's imo probably the best custom rom out there. This will require you to have an unlocked boot loader on your phone.
Your second option is to root your device and remove the systems apps you dont like with titanium backup available off the android market.

1. Just use flashtool to flash a stock firmware for your handset. FlashTool
2. As for multiboot im not sure sorry.
3. You can use titanium backup and try, although its not garunteed to work.
4. If you are planning to flash cm7 it will be pre-rooted after the flash. all you need is unlocked boot loader.
Just have in mind that if you unlock your bootlocker (wich is essential if you are planing to put CM) you gonna lose your warranty.
About task manager, you can use Advanced task killer, who is avaliable at android market for free. There u can manage what process you want to leave running and wich one you want to be killed.
With rooted phone you can uninstall some of the system programs, just like Facebook

So basically if i use this tool i want lose warranty as far as i dont touch bootlocker????
I downloaded some task managers of the market but when i kill apps they restart automaticaly.
One more question.
If i root it uninstall apps via titanium can i restore the apps by wipeing the phone???
THX
Yes, that is correct. You wont lose your warranty as long as you don't touch bootlocker. And with that tool I linked to you, you can easily root your phone and unroot it when ever you like (tested myself).
Some applications will always return back to process tree, simple as, thats how they work
For example, facebook is always in background to notify you about notifications and those things, even if you didn't set up an facebook account, he will always be in background.
That's stupid, I know, but that doesn't suck your battery or similar.
You can always restore all Google applications with ClockworkMod recovery.
Here's the link for CWM:

And here is the link for google applications:

Lets get rid of the stupid things.
First of all there is a data notification whenever you boot the phone.(how to pooooooof its gone)
second there is notification when i turn on gps that might be some internet trafic involved. (if i turn off data plan is there posibily some internet trafic going on) is it gps or only agps?
third i know this phone is storeing all data how do i read it any viewer?
my GDX v17 stucked many times after i installed too many applications...but there was 100 MB free of internal memory...also i want to move all my data to external with some utlity which can move and prepare any kind of data only in SD card...such system data dalvik and everything should be on SD cArd....i think developers should look into this....we have enough roms...please start working on making ROMS more powerful & faster, a rom which can repair itself during crashes and while it gets rebooted....flashing everytime is not good for our mobiles....i respect all developers and thanks for looking into this....
unlocking bootloader is actually advantageous.
PLUS the latest flashtool version have an option to unlock it for noobs, if you think the process is all mindfuck.
Its a one click method.
I've seen that method with just one button click, but, if you unlock your bootloader, yo lose your warranty right?? Is there any way for locking back??
What happen if I unlock my bootloader, what are those advantage you mean??
I'll keep on minicm7 by paul...!
flashtool
which flashtool version is that....or if there any easy way to unlock and lock bootloader again...please suggest the version and link if possible....
quick action required
does anyone know the not all data is getting transferred to sd card after the installation of applications, RAM gets occupied if ur using 100 of application if all data is moved to sd card, for eg in 8GB card, we can have more memory , please give me link if anyone is working or have something useful on this topic, i will say it again, no disrespect, i also want a perfect ROM, EYAMAalso i would like to know, when can i get super zipper locker for GO launcher, it wont work on x10 mini pro, it only works with HD phones. i really want this with customized wallpaper mode.
I'm still waiting for my SI number to come up, and I'm starting to get a little impatient. I'm considering going ahead and using flashtool, but if I go to that much trouble, why not just go ahead and root?
Here is the reason for my question: I rooted my x10mp to upgrade to 2.2 since there weren't going to be any more official updates. That gave me some capabilities (like apps2sd) that weren't available on 2.1.
So, what can I gain by rooting my 2011 xmp?

are your phone x10 mini pro or xperia mini pro?
xmp is the one that getting ics not x10mp :silly:
btw to answer your root question. nothing really.
i only root just to use v6supercharger, market enabler to install some apps that cant be installed "this item cannot be installed in your country" (because i live outside US), titanium backup, and link2sd for moving apps/data/cache to sd. thats about it.
My old phone is the x10 minipro. My current phone is the 2011 minipro. Edited my first post for clarity, thanks.
dave
probably not
of course, this depends what you want to do with your phone... imho, if you have not decided to root your device for other reasons then it is not worth to root it for getting ICS: If you use stock ROM + a small amount of other apps and feel happy about it you probably don"t need root. ICS would give you a little icing on that gingerbread
IMO, definitely YES!
Definitely, it's worth!
Just root, no other mods, to just install some useful apps and achieve control over which you bought: your connections (droidwall...), your CPU and battery (cputuner...), backup (titanium...), adblocking (adaway...), autostart (autorun manager...), or just VIEW how is your system made (root explorer...).
I played with all of that stuff on my x10mp, but I don't really play with this phone as much. I forgot about adblock, though. That's a good enough reason to root for me. Thanks!
dave
Well
Well
You will be able to do a lot of things
u can remove unwanted system apps (i use AntTek app manager)
u can modify system files
u can use apps that needs root (like root browser ,market enablers ,etc)
if you find yourself in need to do any of the above
then root
otherwise don't
it doesn't make a lot of difference
specially if you are on ICS
Got my XMP rooted and flashed to ICS. Took me a couple of hours to do it, but part of that time was spent figuring out my antivirus software on the computer. Ran a repair with PCC and lost root, so I had to do it over again, which took me about 45 minutes. Thought I'd try to run a repair on SUS, but I was afraid I'd wipe out root again, so I skipped that step.
Got some root-only apps, reinstalled most of my old apps, did some housecleaning. Everything looks good and it seems to run just fine. Now I just need to do the same for my girlfriend's XMP.
Just a couple of things: I lost my calendar info with the upgrade, though I tried to back up everything. Also, I'm wondering about skipping the repair with SUS or PCC.

I am thinking of installing an alternate ROM called Honamify which is based on Android 4.4 CyanogenMod posted in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602727
The problem is that I am totally confused after reading about the whole process. I need some guidance from experienced users/developers on how to go about this.
Here are some facts :
- The phone is Sony Ericsson Live With Walkman updated to the last official Ice Cream Sandwich build.
- It has been rooted with eRoot toolkit and most of the applications have been linked to a 2nd ext2 partition on SD card. Some applications like Facebook which were system applications have been converted to user applications and also have been linked to SD card using Link2SD. All updates to system applications have been integrated into system storage.
- The phone bootloader is currently locked.
Here are my questions :
1. Is it possible to take a complete backup of the phone in its present state so that if whatever is done later is unsuccessful it can be restored back to the present state?
2. I understand that it is necessary to unlock the bootloader before installing another ROM. But doing so may cause loss of data and DRM and other features according to Sony. And some posts mention taking a backup of TA partition before unlocking. What is that and how to do it?
3. Some tools show that the phone already has some sort of recovery installed but some others say no. Does this phone come with some factory installed recovery? If not how to install one? Clockworkmod?
4. Will it be possible to have a multiboot setup so that I can select whether to boot the stock or custom ROM?
5. Can we live without the Google applications? Or can we selectively install only some of the Google applications?

1 Yeah. If you have enabled cwm recovery option on your phone. You can just take a backup your whole phone(Of Course excluding the memory card) from the backup and restore menu and restore it later.
2 No data will go if unlock properly. Drm might go if you do it the official way. Chill just remove your sd card before unlocking and remember to backup your wahtsapp chats and sms and contacts(use google sync for contacts) You can reinstall everything again.
3 No. You have to install one. Clockworkmod, ie cwm,Once you unlocked your phone you can just flash custom kernels that come with preinstalled recovery menus
4 Its possible. But its not worth doing it on a 2011 device. Trust me . Youll have to do **** with the sd card as the system doesnt have enough space to hold more than one rom plus we dont really have dualboot kernels.
5 Go to google search and type yourzgapps and click the first link. Even 4.4 gapps are there in the download link its just not mentioned in the thread. Theyre very lite only with essential google apps.Its like only a 14mb download. And yeah you cant live without google apps especially the playstore?
Thanks yash.
How to flash a custom kernel? Using Flashtool software on Windows?

Yes use flash tool. Drivers dont work on windows 8.1 but. So it'll be sad if youre on it

No I have Windows XP on the desktop and 7 on laptop. Both have multiple versions of PCLinuxOS. But I suppose Linux usage here would entail command line.
I suppose if I sit down and do it once I would become confident.
wait for next Honamify update
I've setup Honamify v2 on my live with Walkman. It's good, but look like it has some issue with "google play" compatibility check
For example, My phone can easy install Candy Crush Saga with brand Sony ICS Rom or LegacyXperia (the one Honamify base on).
But in Honamify v2, Google Play said my device don't support.
If you fan of Games. Think twice before install. Or you need to know how to edit buid.prop to make your device compatiblity (not easy with newbie like me)
Ok. Google Play compatibility is critical. Good to know beforehand.
What about other basic functions such as Bluetooth, WiFi, camera etc? Do they work well? Battery life?
pros: battery life, smoothness, wifi strength
It has better battery life then ICS base
Much smoothness then ICS other base Honamify ROM
The corlor in launcher is not real and beautiful like the sony ICS base.
WIFI is stronger with more access point discover in range.
Camera is OK but not much better than cybershot
Look like author has some fix,since link to part 1 has been remove.
Let's wait
for game that not pass compatibility device checking of Google play. I google apk file to download and install. It work. A bit compilicated and hard to update. But at least it ok to play.
Worth for the smooth and GUI of thís ROM.
or you can try to install my newly release rom.. as for the moments it's for LWW only but will support other mdpi's soon..just click my signature
