Hello all.First of all I would like to thank all the xda developers whos always hard at work improving our cell phones with bunch of cool programs
Im a complete noob at all this but with your instructions I managed to install GINGERDX on my Sony xperia mini 10a (american version)
Now my problem is my wifi could not find a network now after upgrading my rom. I was able to use my own network when Im here at home when I was running 2.1 on factory xperia
Is there a way to revert back to factory 2.1 like if it came stock on the mini 10 or before I upgraded to Gingerdx?
I might be selling the phone and just wanna make sure that I can downgrade it back to 2.1
Another thing that concerns me is that using my pc companion now when I plug in the phone it doesnt give me the option like charge phone and theres few more options on the screen and cant remember now..lol
Also when I look at the Phones info it says X8 on the model number ,could this be that I downloaded GINGERDX for X8 or both X8 and X10 share the same platform?
Any help is greatly appreciated guys
Thanks in Advance

Hi
If you're talking about the x10 mini, this might be the wrong forum...
Anyway, you could try the repair option using SEUS.
Good luck!

OK the title maybe a little exaggerated and if so sorry but I know most of you hackers are looking into this but x10 has nearly got froyo according to this so just asking if it could happen on x10 will it happen on x10 mini pro anytime soon?
here is the source: h t t p://gadgets.apna fundaz.com/2010/11/xperia - x10 -w ith-custom-f r o y o-android-2-2-1-rom-video-bootloader-cracked-or-just-fake/
I wouldn't hold my breath. The X10 is not like the Mini Pro, different hardware. They might have similar bootloaders though, which might make the process of making custom roms easier for the Mini Pro. Now with 2.1 the phone got better imho, but froyo would be very nice for the flash support.

that's a great heads up...
btw dude your thread's title is misleading...
No worry for cracking mini and mini pro bootloader the x10 bootloader isn't cracked
They are running froyo on top of the eclair kernel so this should be easy possible on mini and pro
Thumbs up for the dev's

why download the x10 version if there is an mini and mini pro port
put you phone in recovery mode and restore with SEUS should work

You did what??
o.k.. don't do that again, the X10 is in no way like the minipro, different hardware and a much larger firmware file (so it wouldn't fit on the phone anyway) does that help?
now.. if you can get into xrecovery then just revert back to your last backup.. if you can't then I suggest use flashtool to install a minipro (U20) firmware (you will lose all your data but at least your phone will be working) or as owain94 said use SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) to repair your phone..
take the battery out to reset then hold down the back <- key and plug it into the USB cable... you can't brick an Xperia phone (the one advantage to SE's un hackable bootloader) so relax, have a play and you will get it fixed in no time.

hello
i would like to know please if anyone knows if i can put froyo 2.2 on my x10 mini pro please could anyone help???????
take a look at mini development forum, they are working on it in there
Hello Guys! And thanks for offering this great ressources.
I have to admit, I had an Iphone until a few days ago and all this stuff is pretty new.
For now, i managed to get root access install custom roms etc . i tried around and get comfortable with the phone.
My big problem, I got an x10 mini pro & for me its absolutely neccessary that the browser supports flash since i want to play rushpoker xD, on my phone.
So either i find a way to get flash running, or I must buy a new phone
I tried a lot of custom roms, but there are sooo many of them, and i am just stuck at all these informations, i just dont know what to choose etc. so i need a little help there from some of the more experienced users. And yes, im aware that there is something called a search function, but, hey, i just dont want to try & try & try.
Can someone tell me which version of custom rom is the best for my x10 mini pro to get flash working? thanks
model# u20i
2.1 update 1
baseband m76xxtsncjolym 53404006
kernel 2.6.29
build 2.0.a.0.504
This is the forum for the big X10, not for the Minis...

Hello, i need help because my X10 mini and not light or the sony logo, wanting to increase the baseband but I put a want of x8, now I've done everything but does not work, sony companion and seus says I have the latest software, and install a version 1.6 flashx10 e10i (when mine was E10A) accept the installation but still does not turn, I'm really desperate, I can only enter the flash mode, but I can not do anything else, and angry While Sony does not want to update the phone (which is why I wanted to minicm) and those who create custom rom both have to be well received thanks but when help ignore a problem, please help nesecito now.
I'm sorry but I can't understand you too well have you got a white SE logo as you can hold back while off and in sues do a restore then you should probably debrand to get 2.1 for minicm

I have just bought my wife a SE X10 Mini Pro I want to install full english firmware as there is some chinese language in the phone aswell as English. I have searched this forum and have found some stuff BUT I want to do it right. I dont want to screw it up so I would like to help if thats ok. Can someone link me up to exactly what I need, both flashing tool and the correct firmware. I have flashed a SE K850i with generic fw without too much trouble. I take it this phone is a whole different kettle of fish??? Any help with this would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance guys. Im not too worried about rooting it, I just want to change the FW.
To let you know, you will get the best answer from the xperia mini forum itself if you look there and post there.

There is no official ICS firmware for our devices, SE never even gave us a frozen yogurt, so the only way to get ICS on your phone is either MiniCM9 or this one, which is based on ICS sources.
Oh, I thought that you was searching a kernel for android 4.0.4 . The thread i gave include's a link to a kernel that support android 4.0.4 (CM9).
great thanks SmG67 .... is there any way to adapt the SK17i file for the U20i ?

Nope, sorry, the SK17i runs on a newer SoC than ours, and they're not compatible.
You would have to recompile it all from source, which is what the provided links have already done for us , they are really the only options for our phones.
ok; we'll keep CM9 .... great thanks SmG67

upgrading new u20i
Hi guys, I'm new here. I recently bought new xperia mini pro u20i and I don't really like the old OS in it. Thought to upgrade to ICS but the problem is that I'm not experienced at all in these android update&upgrade things. (I'm mostly a computer guy ) I've read instructions how to upgrade etc.. but I'm not risking do it alone although I rooted my phone few hours earlier (whatever that means ) I need someone experienced to show me either on Skype or any other IM step-by-step how to upgrade my OS before I go crazy about it ICS seems like a cool upgrade and I want to try it out. Reply here or PM me, doesn't matter. Please just help me to accomplish this task. Appreciate it. Thanks in advance ))

Start thinking of your phone as a computer... It will make things easier.
Root access (which is easy to come by on Windows, but usually needs a password on linux) allows you to tinker with your system-files.
And there is a tutorial around here somewhere, where the poster has gone through the trouble of making screenshots for every step needed, so maybe you could search for that.
