Windows Phone 7.5 Mango on Xperia X10 mini Pro - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

hi Guys,
i would ask you, if can anyone of us try to port Windows Phone 7.5 to Xperia X10 mini pro?? we only have lack in CPU it requires ArmV7 or Scorpion or above according to Microsoft Tech Days 3.
let's try to port it guys it has a lot of new features!

Only ArmV7? You have any idea how much it takes to port an Arm7 ROM to arm6?
Ever wondered why MIUI isnt ported to Mimmi? Same reason.
Also, wrong thread.

also why WP 7.5? :O why you bought Android phone when you want Windows Phone? for people who know how to use android is WP s..t

Ofc it's possible, no one argues with you there, it's just that it is going to take a whole lot of time to succeed porting it.

Well, it's an interesting challenge. And it'd be a great way to upset the Windows Phone owners which is always nice.
Don't look at me though. I'd have no idea where to even start..

minachvim Here great

Paul these specs are the same specs published in the event today therefore it's possible to move on with such specs! only need to add drivers to the boot image and kernel of windows phone and check something in the USB Com Controller to access the EPROM of the phone! thank you for the precious info mate
for the others here, i'm not offending any of you neither the android community by asking this question! i was imposing a challenge to our community to port the Windows Phone to our device too as it will show the world that we are the best here!
Windows Phone is now on Lumia 800 and 900 from Nokia therefore we can try to dump their ROMS and kernel and modify them all! i believe we can do it and nothing impossible! i'm waiting for a small time to get the windows phone setup and i'll start trying to port it!

Symbian o.s. is the only reason I've decided not to buy Vivaz Pro but to go for X10 Mini Pro.

[Q] Windows phone 7 on XPERIA 10???

Hi everybody.
I would like to know if Xperia 10 will receive the windows phone OS 7
Is it possible to install thatq OS on the Xperia?
Maybe it will be possible but after the bootloader has been cracked.. no one knows for sure. Keep in mind that the minimum ram requirement for Windows phone 7 devices is 512 so that also may be a problem...

if its possible then you will be able to install w7 starter or home basic
i'm willing to bet Sony Ericsson will invest into Windows Phone 7 and launch an Xperia-like unit (XPERIA X3 maybe?). If they do, they better not screw it up this time.

MultiTouch, DualTouch? Anything?

I've heard rumors and I've read blogs. It seems the X10 Mini Pro is capable of having MultiTouch, but what about the Mini?
Take this with a grain of salt but AFAIK the Mini's digitizer isn't capable of multitouch, which means you'd have to rewrite the entire driver in order to test if it's even possible, also AFAIK the Mini and the Pro have the same digitizer

not true mini got clearpad 2000 not sure but mini have a single touch digitizer
and mini pro got cypress truetouch gen3 wich support 32 fingers i thought
and if you dont add double check in ramdisk for mini pro the touch will not work
mini only have 1 check

Sorry bro, but clearpad 2000 has always been DUAL touch. Look on synaptics's homepage http://www.synaptics.com/solutions/products/clearpad . Well, in that list it says 2100, but it's the same thing, the 2000 series have always been dual touch compatible. I know that it isn't as great as the pro's , but it's better than nothing. Someone should crack the ****ing bootloader already...
http://se-blog.com/2010/04/26/exclusive-x10-mini-supports-multi-touch/
In light of all the debate about the display on the X10, I decided to find a definitive answer myself. I went ahead and asked Synaptics, who’s a supplier of touchscreen technologies, and although I didn’t get the answer I was looking for, I got another rather interesting fact. Apparently, Synaptics is the supplier of the display on the X10 Mini and I’ve just been told that it’s a ClearPad 2000 solution, which means it supports dual touch – or in other words the basic sort of multi-touch. It doesn’t mean that it’ll be activated and supported out of the box – as the operating system won’t support it – but I’m pretty sure it’ll come in an update.

And I dont think that there is a need to crack the bootloader.. In the mino pro-forum they are talking about unloading the current driver and load a multit touch-driver.
Let'ts hope it works... so we have a good chance to get dual touch

Best budget android phone with developement

Hello,
I'm relatively new to Android, I've been through 2 devices in the past 2 year (Samsung Galaxy Europa and ZTE Crescent) and the development for my Crescent has started to die (Due to it being armv6 and Qualcomm not releasing what we need to progress ROMs) so I was wondering what the best phone (under £150) with good development would be?
It needs to be armv7 and have a decent size screen (My Crescent is HDPI 3.5" with a 480x800 resolution and it a nice size so that's a guideline)
Any ideas? Is the Ascend G300 an armv7 device because I hear nothing but good things about it.
Thanks
Yep i'm looking for the same, and i found dis::
www zopomobileshop * com
The phone are cheapy and they can be flashed. You can root them at the buying...
i think the sony ericsson xperia mini pro is a good choice
it has an armv7 1ghz cpu but the screen size is only 3"
it costs here in germany only 110€ (as far as i know)
---Signature---
Don't be afraid to hit the thanks button. It doesn't bite. lol
Sorry for my bad englisch

[Q] ZTE GRAND X IN vs Live With Walkman vs Xperia J

Yes, This is a question but for comparation phones and I think it belogs here. If not, mods please move it
I'm buying ZTE GRAND X IN next week and I want to ask you what you think about it. Spec here
I might switch to it and give lww to my dad or vice versa if it receive JB. I read that it will get in March 2013 (this month)
So, what do you think. According to unboxing videos it has AOSP UI which I like it
Edit: And how about Xperia J? Same spec like our phones with planned JB update
xperia j doesnt have same specs
our phones are better
but zte is better

Why do you want the official jb? You could very easily use custom fw. if the phone has better specs, it will be smooth too.

If I can do it, I will done that with my LwW. I have locked bootloader and 90% I'm sure this phones will be locked too.
Ok. There isn't any jb rom for locked right?
Btw, you could try wotan server, (I know it's not free, but considering you have two phones with un-unlockable bootloader)
Back on topic, I would go with zte as j specs are almost like ours, except the jb part. (Heard zte was better.)

Jb roms couldn't run on locked bootloader coz sony didn't released any official kernel, rom or sources for jb for our phones and will never do it. So we need custom kernels for jb which obviously need an unlocked bootloader.
Press THANKS if I helped,

Dont miss the ICON FARM!
Well, there is not even Z for ZTE GXIN and J anroid development forum is not that rich like this :/ I'll buy it but I'm not sure if I or my dad will use it
I don't know if this is bad news but ZTE Grand x In have x86 processor instead of ARM and some apps might be not compatible with it.

Which processor brand to choose when buying a new device?

Hey XDA Community,
after 3 1/2 years i'll retire my Galaxy S3 and get a new phone. So far so easy.
But as a Android enthusiast, i can't just buy a new phone, it has to be a phone which offers a good hardware base for using custom roms. And what i learned in the last 3 1/2 years is that, for example, Samsungs Exynos processors are NOT a good hardware base and rom developers hate Exynos processors.
So here we come to the magic question: Which is, from a developer view, the best, and what are acceptable processor brands which allow developers to develop a rom (more precisely the "device tree") which can make use of all of the processors features and its performance?
I think the following two brands are well known among all custom rom users and don't need to be commented:
Exynos -> as described above, "the Antichrist"
Qualcomm Snapdragon -> as far as i know the Holy Grail for developers
But what about the "underdogs"? How developer friendly are the following processor brands which now appear more and more in (flagship) phones from Huawei, Xiaomi and many other smaller phone manufacturers:
MediaTek (currently used by some Acer phones)
Hisilicon Kirin (for example used by the Huawei Ascend Mate 7, Huawei Honor 6 ...)
Nvidia Tegra (for example used by the new Google Pixel C tablet)
Intel Atom (for example used by the Asus ZenFone 2)
I'm excited about your experience with and recommendations for these "underdogs", especially if you are a developer!
Best regards,
Mika
Mediatek - Not developer friendly. Not easy to create custom ROMs for this brand of SoC.
Never heard of Hisilicon Kirin SoC. Not too sure about Nvidia Tegra.
No one else interessted in this issue?

Only qualcomm.
Hisilicon is a no go. No sources.
Sony + Qualcomm is the best choice.

I added the "Intel Atom" processors to the list of choice. Perhaps a little late, but i think it's not unimportant.

Intel is a no go as well since it's pretty new. As for your choice of SoC, it really depends on your needs. If you want to use a custom ROM, you're best off with Qualcomm. Otherwise most SoC will work fine for you. I own a Galaxy S6(Exynos SoC), unknown China phone(MediaTek SoC) and a HTC M8 HK edition(Qualcomm SoC). I can use them all just fine in my daily life.

If you want the most development, nexus devices will always have the best open source support. If not a nexus, stick with qualcomm . all the other socs have less open source support and therefore fewer developers willing to work on them. That doesn't mean you won't get custom ROMs (zenfone 2 is going well), but the pool of people able to do real development on it is tiny...
nVidia also releases open sourced images for it's devices...

My question is only meant to find the best choice/choices for using custom roms.
You're right, if just looking for a new phone, the SoC is not the most important to look for.

Hey @codeworkx, just one question regarding your sony recommendation.
What do you say about this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/loss-drm-keys-t2890936
If Sony offers you good conditions / sources / binarys and whatever to develop a custom rom, but kills or at minumum downgrades many of the phones features when unlocking the bootloader (camera quality, screen quality, sound quality ...) would you buy this devices at all?
Or is there a way arround this bootloader mess which just isn't known in the thread linked above?
Regards,
Mika
