[Q] what should i do with my x10 mini pro? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

hey all, just got my hands on an x10 mini pro (dirt cheap, 25 off a mate ) its for a xmas present for my big brother. im wondering what i should do with it. is it really worth rooting these? they are pretty nippy as they are, and i doubt my brother will use it for games, just as a phone, alarm and music player really. is it really worth rooting/modding these phones?
give me your thoughts please. thanks very much.

Go through the X10 Mini/Pro forums and read those FAQ, it's definitely NOT a bad phone IMO, I got X10 Mini, X10 Mini Pro, X8 and now Xperia Mini Pro, nearly all are great for their value, as 2nd hand phones.

Mini Pro carried by Rogers

I heard that Rogers in Canada was supposed to carry both the Mini and the Mini Pro. So far only the Mini has been released. Has anyone heard anything about the Mini Pro? My wife bugs me on a daily basis for this thing.
I'm waiting on news as well , just saw the Mini on the site but no news from the Pro
Hoping to get some answers =/
If you guys look closely on the 0$ smartphone thing the picture of the mini is actually a mini pro. perhaps its pointing that a mini pro is coming?

My friend has the mini, one of the firsts and the battery doesn't come out, in my pro it comes.
Pro is a little bigger.
Off course the keyboard, is needed if you type allot cause of the small screen.
I have also have the x10 and now i have mini pro and i will never go back to the big brother again, i think it's better then the x10

[Q] x10 mini or x10 mini pro?

which phone is good? which one do you use? i cant make a choise (
Mini pro if love emailing and texting..
Mini Pro by far, the type feature on the mini is very unsuitable for a small phone and the actual qwerty keyboard on my Mini Pro is perfect, its one of the reasons i did not buy HTC... They are roughly the same price anyway. I got a Mini for my brother first, I liked the Mini so much and really wanted to buy the Mini but then the Mini Pro just came out and opted to wait for the price drop of the Mini Pro, after 2-3 weeks i paid the same price for the Mini Pro as I did for the Mini I bought for my brother. I have acess to both phones and think the Mini Pro is a much better option, another plus side is that Mini Pro's screen also has the hardware to support multi-touch which we currently do not have but may well be cracked by Owain very soon!
PS. Mini Pro is perfect for emulators such as Nesoid, Snesoid as you can configure button inputs and do not have to rely on onscreen touch buttons which will not work on Mini anyway as it will not support the multi-touch.
Mini PRO. Size is almost the same, but the advantage of keyboard is great!
You can play a lot of games from gameboy or psx emulators much better with HW keyboard then the onscreen one..
is there big size difference between them?
not really they're both tiny phones. the pro is slightly heavier but worth the extra bulk
Another thing is that there are no... I don't know the exact word... You know... The thing that covers back the phone and is colorful and also covers the battery... The back cover! xP
There are no back covers for mini pro included when you buy it... That's the only thing that 'annoys' me... There is a variety on mini's box... But I would definetely suggest you buy a mini pro, I am able to type superfast and as the other guys said it's a BIG advantage having a keyboard for emulators and chatting.
And... You can't take the mini's battery off! On contrary, with mini pro, you can. Imagine your phone crashing, you would be in trouble.
Sorry for my dislexia and stupidity, but I just got up! xD

x10 mini pro is a better choice. It has a hardware keyboard, which allows u type faster, more convenient. Besides, if u want to play games with emulator eg. snes, gameboid, GBCoid, PSX4Droid..., u cant play well with virtual pad since x10 mini doesn't has multitouch.
essentially i dont play games and dont type message generally.
Then if you are conserned about the money and don't care about inserting and ejecting the battery (something very important for me), then go on and buy a mini...

If you care about money, I'd think that the different in prices between mini and mini pro is not too much. I suggest you mini pro. I don't see any advantage for mini besides color backcovers
in Turkiye the price difference mini and mini pro is 10 dollars. so i gave order mini pro
Nice, make sure you install CyanogenMod when you come to our world! ;-)

but someone says there are some errors with that rom. reboot,battery,camera etc.
everything works fine for me flashing CM6 final and floyotweaks: battery is the same; camera/camcorder no problems; reboots fixed (people complaining probably have overclocked too high)
Anyway, any problems and you're sure to find a fix on the forum
The system is almost perfect... Of course better than the stock official. But if you don't like it, you can always go back to the official rom you had before you install it, simply with xRecovery. But to return, it must be the same version with the cyanogen version. For example, if you are on 2.1 and install cyanogen froyo (which is 2.2) you cannot go back to it.

Mini pro beacause of the phisical keyboard and removable battery!

No errors.... they need only to do a full clear installation of the 2.1up1 from PC Companion or SEUS, then clear the SD card...
Then install the ROM!
Maybe, at this point, that the phone reboot...
In this case reinstall .zip file and It will works!
Hey bro, i have the mini and i love it. But if i were you id wait until the new sony xperia pro comes out. Its a new version of the mini pro. It will be so much better than the mini and mini pro. And you will be able to unlock the bootloader through sony website so customisation will be better and easier. Anyway cheers, evilbarcode.

They are very similar in terms of hardware. I think it all comes down to personal preference.
Just by the New Xperia Mini or Live with Walkman they aren't expensive.. the x10 mini has a better camera than the x8 but smaller screen size.. x10 mini is a great phone.. but by time it is becoming underpowered. x10 mini still great phone though

Don't know about CSmini but sure you can play pes and fifa and for gta 3 you get fc.
On mini pro you can play pes and gta 3. On the x8 you coulnd play gta since there is no real multitouch. On the mini pro its hard to play becouse of the small screen.

Buy Xperia Mini!
Wait for some time till u have enough money! Its worth waiting!
Xperia mini has both goods of x10 mini and x8 and yet more powerful with its 1ghz processor , multitouch, braviaengine and updates of future android versions!!!!!
Due to small screen the games on x10 mini is not a fun!
So i personally recommended u to wait for some days and buy a smartphone that u wont regret in future!!

It's a stunning little device... but budget may be a issue.
If you need MT you may get lucky with a x10 mini pro with Dualtouch but the screen and keyboard are horridly tiny.
The x8 is better if you just need a phone to mess around with.. take calls ect.. watch vids or listen music basic touch games.. if your lucky BuggyDualTouchTM
Screen is a bit bigger but has the same cpu as x10MP or X10M.
If you have the cash Xperia Mini PRO...
same Xperia ARC chipset. bigger screen ect..
XD That is pretty much big power..
