hey guys, i'm using Axura2257VE rom, and I love it. I was wondering where i can find kernals that are compatible with this rom? or are all kernals compatible with all roms? Sorry for my noobness but i don't want to brick my phone, thanks for any help.
The only things that need to match are that the kernel ws designed for your phone (obv), and that it was built for the version of android that you are running (Axura is 2.2, hence you want a 2.2 kernel)
Thanks that is good to know.
Hi, really sorry if posted before please dont flame shout or anything else.
i have managed to root my x10i.
my phone has the following details
uk on 3
firmware 2.1 update1
baseband 2.1.54
kernel version 2.6.29
build number 2.1.a.0.435
what i want to know is what should i do now???? i would like to install a new rom.
which one do i choose.... there are many threads with links here, there, and everywhere and i am finding it confusing, i am new to this and would appreciate any help and advice that you could part to a willing and eager x10i user.
i would prefer to use/have a fully working rom inc camera and video playback.
i understand this will limit my options,
i dont mind using a stripped down stock rom.
thanks in advance for any help
It is possible for you to get 2.2, but dont know which version is the best, thinking rdannar or what he's called. it doesn't have a functioning cam, but you can get that from apps.

mmmh the camera works in most of the roms but the quality really isnt great. there is a 2.1custom stripped down se rom which im using and that is full functional and much faster than the standard se. just go through the 1st to pages on the android development and take your pick, they all list whats working and whats not.the 2.1 roms will mostly be fully functional
i got my x10a last week on friday an within 12 hurs rooted 1.6 installed 2.1.a.0.435 rooted that installed Root Explorer, xRecovery,hunnycomb 2.1 rom.
used this to install new F/W

Well.
Have you considered the applications you can use?

Regarding ROMS: If you paint a SAAB blue, it doesn´t become a Volvo. Some parts of the 2.2> roms still uses big parts o the 2.1-update 1 firmware and it uses the same bootloader
thanks guys for all the replys and links. i have just used the go3easys rom
Hello Guys
First off thank you to everyone for all your hardwork
I am having a problem finding the best Gingerbread rom and the correct basebands that work. I have tried a few and more often than not i have problems with random reboots and error messages. I would like to know which people find out there work the most stable and which combo of rom and basebands please
I have also wondered with Android been an OS for all models of phones can you install a rom on an X10i (my model handset) that has been made and is basically stable as F8*k for example a HD Desire or model that would work on X10i. I think i may know the answer and that been that it isn't possible but i want to ask anyway just to clarify
Lastly a very big thankyou to everyone for all there hard work and time put into the development of the roms so that we can all update our phones when SE couldn't even release updated roms for us. Personally i think it was a case of they didn't release 2.3 for X10i as they had the Arc coming out and 2.3 was probs it's biggest selling point.

Cyanogen CM7.0 RC4 v013 Gingerbread 2.3.3 is the only one I think... arc rom is not really maintained and was more of just a test. you need BB .52 . for me v013 rebooted a lot, but I am going to try v014 later
Hello
Gopdemon thanks for your reply
I have tried both of what you suggested with no luck :-(
I think maybe it's a problem with the baseband rather than the rom?
The GB ROM is unstable right now, even with the custom kernel. I would stick to 2.2 since its like 99-100% done. But you can try this:

Mister J thanks for the link. Thats the rom i am currently on
Thank You
Thanks to everyone that replied. I am now trying to work out which MIUI roms are best with best baseband but always running into issues :-( typed by Kate on behalf of Marti
[Q] "Market" for roms [And how to know when a update for your rom is available]?
Hi there, I'm new to this forum.
I've looked around a little bit but didnt find what I was looking for. Anyhow, I wonder if there's any app/programme that shows available roms for the x10i including updates and so on?
Installed RomManager but I found out that it didn't support x10i.
Ps.
Certainly running "CM 6.1.3 [V006] Kernel-010 [13-05-11]"
Ds.
Hi everyone,
new to the forums and Android. Been a reader for a while now. I have just updated from Litening Rom 1.5 to 2.0 and I must say I don't like how Swype works in 2.3.4. I've searched the forums but didn't come up with anything. Maybe I was searching for the wrong keywords...
Anyway, I want to know is it possible to replace the Swype that is currently on my phone with the one that was in let say LR 1.5? If yes, what file do I need to exchange?
Thanks in advance for your help.
what was your version of swype now? mine is 2.72.77.25374.25547.1252.OXX. and i think its accuracy is really bad. a let down when i show my friends.
btw im on stock rom
