x10mini brick/unbrick? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hey there,
I installed the new MiniCM9 and everything worked out for me, unless I deleted the Cyanogenmod Wallpapers and Trebuchet apks with Titanium Backup. The result is, that my x10Mini is showing a blinking MiniCM9 and nothing else, how to fix this?
I think I need to reinstall both apk, but how exactly? When I access the recovery, the only USB location I have access to from my laptop is the SD-Card.
Pls help me. Thank you so much...

Assuming u typed the thread title correctly, your're actually in wrong forum.

This is xperia 2011 section,search for x10mini and post the question

Thanks for your help..
A simple instruction would be more helpful at least...BC it's similar to all Droids

Trebuchet.apk is home launcher app, because you removed it, phone cannot be accessed.

Just reflash the ROM, it should work.

and can i modify an existing rom? want to understand how making roms works first, so my question is if i download a custom rom, can i modify it for my personal purposes? for exampe by removing some apps...
thanks for ur help
Taking out apps is easy.. use titanium backup. Ifyou want to mix them use a kitchen. If you want to build one use linux and download google source and edit.

[Q] TripNArc Theme

Okey, to begin with, this thread may be around somewhere, tho i doubt it, cause ive been searching over the internet for more than 2 hours. Please don't post comments like: Noob use the search button. It may be even so nooby that everyone already figured it out but me, and im just stupid. You can also say that if thats the problem
If it is somewhere already, please show me where and ill be very grateful.
My problem:
Normally, with all my themes, it came out nicely zipped, and all done for flashing with xRecovery. But tripnarc came out as a rar file. I extracted it with winrar, and then zipped it. I put it on my Xperia X10. Then i rebooted my phone. I chose install custopm zip in xRecovery. Than i get an error (bad) and the installation is aborted. Does anyone know how to make this work?
Thanks in advance,
and sorry for my bad English.
Somebody please help?

are you sure its a rar file, and not just the icon is. Mine is a zip file when you right click/properties on the file.
Hmm ill try it again

Take care that you have the right bb..and if you can..try to crash system server in dev tools..anyway if you want tripNArc rom i suggest you to try newest version on modaco forum..there you can find version 1.0.1 instead of 0.9!
Powered by Xperia ™
i tried it with 0.9, now downloading 1.0.1 from modaco. Thanx for the help ^^
will say if it works
Worked ^^ Thanks very much and stuffz
Oh damnit, just realized something. The landscape mode won't work on TripNArc :/ All the games dont work, is there any way to make them work?
Landscape is glictched cause arc screen is 4.3 inch instead of 4 inch of x10..no way to fix this by trip! That rom is not ready for daily use imo..and trip is too busy with miui and can't fix this rom! I like it too but i tried many times to use it but there are too much problems and bugs!

aw damnit :/ well thanks again (for the 999th time) ^^
Maybe you can try to fix it by yourself and then send me the new rom!!! joking..no problem!

[Q] Restoring stock TW Launcher

Hi
Finally - first post after just reading the forum, and for good start it's kind of how to questions.
So, as mentioned in the topic I need to restore standard TW Launcher on my device, at the moment it is broken thanks to my noobish operations. I tried to replace TW with the modded TW4.5.
TW4.5 doesn't work on my gs2 and to install it I just deleted the stock one. I made a copy of standard apk, but nothing happend when I copy it back into system/app directory. It also won't to be installed.
Now I use GO Launcher and I'm happy with it but the thought that standard one doesn't work make feel strange.
Please help
I had the same issue last night but got TW4.5 working fine in the end. However i did end up going back to the original anyway (some widget bugs that i probably could have sorted but couldnt be bothered -.-').
The way i got my original TW back was as follows:
1) Put the original touchwiz30.apk file and the .odex file back into /system/app.
2) Delete the Touchwiz4.apk
3) Try install the old launcher only to be told "Application not installed".
4) Reboot the phone and it should let you use the normal launcher again, use Home Switcher if youve set the other as default.
Hope this helps

Problem's solved, I made silly mistake - I didn't recognize that the root uninstaller app did add the '2.3.3' phrase between file name and file extension.

Thanks
Thanks for the question I have the same problem.
can u post ur stock files cuz i ****ed up and didnt take backup plz?
Srry for lag, havent seen it. I'll upload it tommorow from work or if u need it earlier I suggest to download a rom based on stock one and you will find it (there's stock tw in villain rom for sure).

None that i know of. Maybe with some apk editing we can fix that, but i don't know. Ray's screen is too perfect that all the text is too small..

You can download an app from the market such as titainium backup or my backup, that will back up all your apps and data, once you install your rom download the app from the market again and restore. All of your apps will be restored
There are a few paid and none paid apps in market, I use paid version of titainium backup but i have used my backup in the past

if your phone is rooted, you can edit file /system/build.prop. at string ro.sf.lcd_density=240 (9 from bottom) and change density to 260 or 280, than ALL text elements will slightly bigger. need reboot after changing.
Well frankly i don't think the messaging fonts are smaller... It's quite comfortable...
That lcd build.prop method was very common in Sensation section... but there we used to decrease it to 204 and with that you get 5x5 application drawer inn HTC sense...,don't know how it will behave here...
secondly, users reported that some market applications show incompatible if you change lcd density...

Hi Gents
I have my phone rooted with unlocked bootloader and i use stock rom .42 with Doomkernel.
Now when I connect my Ray to PC, PC Companion says that new firmware is available for my phone (.62). Do you know what would happen if I would start updating through PC Companion? Brick? Loosing root? Nothing? Simply updating? What is your oppinion about that? Thanks for support.

my steps are:

- replace the .png
- save the .apk
- sign it
- install
- error, app not installed
i did some searches and found something about deleting the files of the "META-INF" folder, but that didn´t work either
i guess it´s related to the launcher not just being a launcher but also a system-file or something
so...what am i doing wrong?

Just put the apk in system/app change permission to rw-r-r and restart.
you mean copy / paste with a file manager or install??
and why change the permission? the original launcher has other permissions (i´m just curious)
/e: oh ****, it worked
thx man!
can it do it the same way when modding the framework-res.apk?

[Q] Swype Keyboard [ROM:BouDzDroid v.2 for GT-S5830i]

Hello people,
So I had rooted my phone, installed cwm recovery and then installed this custom ROM BouDzDroid v.2 for GT-S5830i on my Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i.
Installed from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061547
I had also created a Titanium backup in case i felt like going back to any of the stock applications.
So the ROM is really cool and all but i lost a major application which i almost can't do without, SWYPE.
So i restored using my titanium backup but its not working properly, this message keeps showing, "process com.swype.android.inputmethod has stopped unexpectedly". I tried going to cwm and fixing permissions but it still doesn't work.
I really want Swype back. Can you guys tell me what to do? Like can someone make a Swype patch for this that i can install on this ROM?

You should have asked this question in BouDzDroid's thread or in Question and Answer section... Now you know for the next time
Anyway, for your question, you can try a 3rd-party app like SwiftKey or TouchPal Keyboard for swipe keyboard function - they use less space than stock Swype.apk

Yeah so i tried substitutes. But SwiftKey, SlideIt all are paid applications, the trial versions are stupid. So now im using Touchpal.

that's because, if a keyboard is not in the internal memory, you have to set it as your keyboard every time, anyway if you want you can move it to your sd card with Link2SD.

I wouldn't recommend move keyboards, launchers to link2SD, when I had swype in my SD took years to show up than in the internal.

ok i had similar problem like yours. heres the solution.
Swype app may should be in System not in Internal or Sd, and you must add LIB files to System if you want that to be working otherwise it always will be force closing.
1.Change extension of Swype.apk to Swype.zip
2.Open that archive and extract LIB files which have .so
3.change Swype.zip to Swype.apk
4.Move Swype.apk to System/App
5.Move Extracted Lib Files to System/Lib
6.Reboot and Enjoy
