[Update now] Xperia SK17i Android 2.3.4 new features! - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi. I managed to update the Xperia sk17i on Android 2.3.4!
I am a new user and I can not add movies. To view, go to youtube and type:

Agreed, until you show us the about menu it is very hard to believe. Also, if you know how, post your build.prop.

So, just to summarize (and to add one point), what would we like you to post:
1. The screenshot of Settings -> About phone menu with build number and f/w version.
2. Where the phone was bought (I mean country)
3. CDA number. Go to /system and open build.prop file. There'll be a string like ro.semc.version.cust=XXXX-XXXX (you'll get numbers instead of XXXX-XXXX). That would be great to know these numbers
4. Finally, please check this thread. All the xperia mini pro owners will be thankful if you capture a short video by your sk17 in quiet place and upload it to youtube.
Thanks in advance!

Isn't it possible that someone copied the camera and gallery app from some other phone like xperia mini, then made that video?

That's why we're asking all that stuff

You're kidding right? That's just the 3D camera app from the market

EDIT: sorry. Delete this post. I had overlooked something.

The app is simply called Camera 3D. There's a gallery for it too.
there's a reason he disabled comments on the video

Its fake guys... Can some mods delete this thread?

=) Compare Camera 3D interface with the video on youtube (you can see it on Market). And then find some video about 3d camera in XPERIAs. You'll see that it's SE 3d camera in the 1st post.
But still no idea about the source of the update. If the device is rooted it's not a problem to copy 3d apps and change build number.
BTW, if I'm not mistaken, the phone language on video is Polish.

[Q] Widget Favorite Contacts from Xperia Neo

Hi! On promo photo Xperia neo has a widget favorite contacts!
He was probably on the first firmware?! Does anyone know where to get it or download? Maybe it somehow pull out of the first firmware?
Sorry for my bad English!
life.Contacts it's better
I do not like life.contacts
maybe on the SE site got the life.contact
I really cant ounderstand why SE inkludes this in Neo but not in Arc.
Hoping to see this one in market from SE soon.

If anyone would like to download the Widget which is shown in the image above, you can do so via the below link:
This should work on all of the new Xperia™ range handset, not yet tested on X10, X10 Mini Pro etc.

TNX BRO! working on my Xperia arc!
Thank you!! It works on Xperia X10 too!!
Thanks a lot renegade93.
i have this already on my neo, always been there also.
newest update android/SE software
Cheers for the widget although it is included with 2.3.4.
Sent from my MT15i using xda premium
I have it with the 2.3.3 fw but I don't like it very much. The main problem is that if you tap on a contact it will just send you in the contact details, I'd prefer a quick action like call, send msg etc.
Same. Life contacts is good because of that feature.
Sent from my MT15i using xda premium
Is there any way to choose an action when you tap a photo from this widget?
For example I want to call a number from that favorite. I don't like to open the contact info. And if you have more favorites than is room on widget you can't scroll for the others. Or maybe I don't know to use it.

[DUMP] SK17i_4.0.A.2.335_ Xperia Mini Pro System Dump

here is the xperia mini pro system dump
http://www.mediafire.com/?8oe2bazrbcqx1bu
most of the widgets/apps work on x10 2.3
including some new widgets like timer widgets, fav contacts widgets, data monitor widget, businesscenter widget
but the most interesting thing is the thememanager.apk
i cant install the app
but it seems possible if some of the files in framework are modifed
so i put this dump file into dev section
so dat the devs here can make the ThemeManager.apk workable
ill also attach some cool widgets from the dump
ps credit to arkedk who replied my pm
got weather widget working
and theme manager installed but FC
Koloboк said:
Install my zip with weather widget: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16282981&postcount=19, and new launcher from arc dump, now you can install ThemeManager.apk and DefaultThemes.apk, from this dump, but when you run theme chooser from launchers menu it causes app FC, maybe devs can solve it.

what's with the language? can we not comment without swearing
yeah can the Xloud technologie be ported to the x10? The arc also gets the xloud filter through an update so it is software related right?
it's sony's marketing strategy ... obviously they wont release all good phone at a time.... and those technology was not available that time.... these decision's are made at higher level and they have to consider so many things and see the present market status before releasing any phone... sony is very clever in all these things...
Sony xperia mini pro is superb phone ,better then our x10 except small screen...
sony told before for exmor r in mini pro but they removed it later , but still it's pretty cheap phone with good specs.
I love the new widgets on my X10!!!
They are beautiful and consistent to the SE UXP.
Timer and Favorites are very very handy!

[REQ]Bravia engine

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1267929
the Bravia engine is out for the x8 can som1 plzz port this to our x10 mp ?
Personally , I think that this a nice placebo for a better screen . Even if it actually makes a difference, it's only for stock photo gallery and stock video player. Not sure whether developers want to spent time for a debatable enhancement which is not modular. My biggest argument is the way it's effecting the screen settings (brightness settings dont work after bravia engine installation)
For SonyStyle and MiniCM7 Pro
OK what i did for ginger DX is add the following lines to build.prop
Code:
ro.service.swiqi.supported=true
persist.service.swiqi.enable=1
Then i copied the be_photo and the be_movie files from attachment of the original thread by zdzihu, into system/etc
I then gave 755 permissions to build.prop, and the two files... took a pic before and after the process... I didnt find any difference actually!!
Can anyone confirm if it's makin any difference by some pics?? (I will upload the pics i took shortly..)
I noticed no difference or configuration option I get.
I have lost the home screen after the start of SE and do not see the bottom.
I also caused a reboot.
Tested MiniCm7 Pro for V9 version.
ok, THX. Is XLuod for x10 mini pro?
Creonek will never work!
There are fake xLoud but only at SonyStyle and MiniCM7 Pro and nowhere more!
so its confirmed working on gingerdx ?
if yes plzz provide the flashable zip or right manual installation instruction

Neo has it from stock itself right? Did you try taking a picture of the same item with and without bravia engine?
honestly has no difference... at least from my experience, but flash it just for the hell of it cause you can
Dont think i'll be flashing this, not really much point apart from to confuse people with newer xperia device that know BE is not available on our phones lol would be good if it actually worked though

Official update to 4.0.4 for xperia ray (and others)

Hi guys,
http://blogs.sonymobile.com/products/2012/05/25/update-on-ice-cream-sandwich-rollout-for-xperia-smartphones/ here is info about update to ICS 4.0.4 for ray (and other xperias). As we remember, 4.0.3 has came with lot of problems (laggs, jerking video recording, low performence in games, battery drain). I suggest to type here what has changed in new OFFICIAL rom for xperia ray (mainly if bugs are solved).
Thx in advance
thanks for news and i hope this update be better ^^
i hope it will enable auto brightness, add status bar widgets and lockscreen notifications ...and solve bugs reported
Haha thats funny as I haven't even received official ICS in the uk. So God knows when ill get this update

But an updates note? i've installed this firmware on my ray, but i don't know what changes to 4.0.3
I updated yesterday but didn't notice much difference. I have to admit, I didn't check video recording (I hardly use it) nor 3D gaming performance.
As a few others have pointed out, the notification LED didnt appear to work after receiving an SMS or email unless you woke up the screen.

I understand, you have official 4.0.4. Can you tell what about:
- recording video in hd (what about jerking)
- games performance
- laggs
- battery consumption
comparing to gingerbread?
ok, i have found the answer by myself on sony blog. Here it is:
4.0.4 update on Xray
Pros:
*ram usage is better.UI is much more smoother.no lagging at all.
*game performanse is better.(and when exiting the game home screen opens directly.no lagging here too)
Cons:
*Calendar widget is still not showing the next event (so What's the use of this widget?)
*Video recording still lags (playback still lags)
*Dialpad is still taking 2-3 seconds to start at first try to open.
*NO notification LIGHT when you recieve a message when screen is off.
I'm still waiting for another update. Good thing is that between first and second update to ICS it was a short time.

friends mine of modes doesn't affect graphic effects! if before it worked for you, there shall be no problems with it, strictly follow the instruction! it is necessary to delete files which I specified, and to restory APP +DATA! you look a video manual, if someone writes the instruction, I won't be against as I badly talk in English.
Since the author is fine can someone write a guide please?
