Hello all,
Apologies if this question has been answered elsewhere I did have a bit of a search but couldn't see the answer for certain.
I've just acquired an X10 mini pro, and am looking into custom roms. I was just wondering if there's any complications to this device that I'm missing.
I also own a HTC Desire Z, which required lots of messing round with downgrading firmware and installing custom bootloaders before you can flash custom roms.
Am I just expecting things to be more complicated than they actually are, and the X10 is relatively easy to flash (i.e. root, install CWM and flash away)?
Or is there some difficult bit I've missed.
Thanks in advance for the answers!
EDIT : Nevermind, apparantly I have an inability to read! found my answers now.

I know that many of these questions are already answered but i couldn't understand how to do it so here it goes.
I know how to install custom roms/radios/mods etc on HD2 but only on WinMO.
I saw on a friends HD2 android software and i really loved it.
I have a custom rom on my hd2 (omega v14.4/radio 2.10.50.28_2) and i need your help to install ANDROID on it.
Is there a dual bootloader or a specific procedure to run android?
I have to format the phone and install only android on it or there are both on the phone?
Which is the best ROM so far for it?
Battery consumption/signal/gps etc remain functionable like in WinMO?
Thanks for your help! Waiting for your answers!
read the posts and you will find your answers, installing android is simple enough just copy over the android folder to the sd card, all this is covered in the stickies and many other posts in the android area
Thanks for the reply.
You know... it's my first time and i dont want to brick my phone
Could you point out to me a good stable rom? Are the android roms for everyday use or still in pure development?
Thanks. I managed to do it. A few things dont work though but it's very nice and fast!
Hello,
I would like to know if it is possible to unlock(sim lock) xperia x10i to install unoffical rom(form this forum)?
Tnx.
I believe this is the wrong place for this topic... it should be in Q&A section I think.
Definitely not the good forum. Also, your question is pretty weird : sim lock has NO link ever with installing custom roms. If you were a bit curious, you would see you've posted in a forum with LOTS of custom roms, so it *might* mean you can set up custom rom...
1) How did he post here if he has less than 10 posts?!?!?!
2) He probably meant rooting, or got confused with all this mess about bootloader, or comes from another device. Use SuperOneClick v1.6.3
hi there! im planning to upgrade my phone to the acro s, and ive been looking at these forums for the last couple of days, but still dont know a lot of things (e.g. what are ftf files for, what are drm keys, is acro s compatible rom-wise with the sxs, and will it ever get aosp, etc).
is there a beginners guide around here, or a wiki page i can read before getting into the whole flashing and bootloader unlocking process?
thank you for your help!

Hi All,
First of all apologies if this has been covered in another thread. I've had a long search around and can't seem to find any answers to my question. If i have missed it please point me in the right direction.
I am looking to install cyanogenmod 10.2 onto my S3 i9300 international (currently running the terrible 4.3 updated update).
My first question is how do I know if clockwork mod is installed on my phone? And if it isn't what is the best way of going about setting it up?
Second question is which kernel should i be using to get the best performance/ battery life balance? Also how do i know which kernel I currently have? ( I literally know nothing about this subject)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to learning all the benefits to custom roms and, hopefully grow my knowledge so i can stop pestering you guys.
Cheers all.
Sticky threads will tell you all need to know, follow the guides and advise.
Best rom/kernel threads are not allowed, as is posting questions in the general thread.
Hello!
I am newly registered here, but I have been around for some time, and I love the forums and all the help one can find here. So I decided to register in order to ask for some help as well...
I searched for this, but I am not sure about the results that came up so let me ask it directly:
I have an Xperia X10 Mini Pro and, as it is getting a bit old, decided to experiment with custom ROMS. So far everything is stock and unaltered. And the phone is carrier locked to Vodafone. Will this lock be a problem somewhere along the way? And how exactly can I (if possible) unlock it while having a new, custom ROM in it?
I'd like to try out the "MiniCM7Pro - V21". Can I refer to this thread as a reference? Or, taking into account that I am starting from scratch (unaltered and carrier locked phone), is there a better place to refer to?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards!

Just keep in mind that the thread you linked is for the X10 Mini (not Pro, i.e. without the sliding keyboard). I am not familiar with Mini Pro, so I don't really know how much of a difference there is in the process, but make sure you find information that is relevant and applicable to your specific model...
