[Q] can't change hard keyboard on x10 mini pro - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello everybody,
I'm sorry to bother you, but I look everywhere and I can't find an answer for my problem.
This morning I updraded my x10 mini pro to gingerdx v21b from gingerdx v17, and it worked very well except for the hard keyboard wich is qwerty and I need an azerty keyboard.
I first try the mini rom manager wich had worked fine for v17 but nothing changed.
Then I found a post in the development forum where I got a azerty.zip file to flash. But it doesn't do anything and I can't ask any question in that forum...
I don't know what to do now in order to have my keyboard in french...
Could anyone help me?
Thanks a lot.

After spending one all day searching everything I could find on the forum and testing everything, I finaly decided to go back to gingerdx v17 which I had backuped...
So I restored my old version with its hardkeyboard working in french and I copied all files in /system/usr/
Then I re-installed v21b and I moved the old /system/usr files in the new one...
It doesn't work... Still don't have a french hard keyboard...
Any idea ? anybody?
I really hope somebody will give me an idea because I'd like to keep this version, it's smooth and fast.
Thanks.

Hey did you checked this thread?

I can't help you much really, I use MiniCM don't know how gingerdx works. But this site fixed some keys on my keyboard.

Yes, I found it an tried it, but it didn't change anything...
Thanks
When I upgraded to v17 I afterthat installed and run miniRom manager beta 3.0 which modified the keyboard.
But with v21b it doesn't change anything...
I'm actually on a zombipanic kernel with gingerdx, do you think I can swich to MiniCM ? Do I have to change kernel?

Yeah you need to change kernel, check my signature if you want MiniCM7 (GingerBread 2.3.7).
But if you want MiniCM9 (ICS 4.0.4) check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1636501

I have founded how to do it. Try this TUT (maded by me, please hit thanks button).

I'll try thomas15v's suggestions and if it doesn't work I think I'll change kernel and Rom...
But I think I'll try miniCM7 I don't think I'm ready for miniCM9 !!! I don't use my phone too much, but it has to be fast and smooth and trusty ...
Thank you for you answer

nice guide men! =) +10
I already know of at least 1 noobie that got a bit mixed up with these "X10" guides.. I was trying to work out what they were doing wrong trying to flash their mini then I went to the guide they were following (this one ^) and found out they were following it to the letter!! (which ment installing dual touch on a mini!!)
So its not really the best for "Noob's" unless they have a big X10 (not a mini or Pro) or at least something should be added to let them know not to install dual touch
I still don't see why .Sin files are refered to as the "Hard way" I still use the Flash tool I tested for Bin4ry last year when we all updated to 2.1 Nordic... no fancy GUI but simple as, and I have never had a problem flashing my phone.
Still.. nice work (I'm so old skool I didn't even realise there were ftf file's until I read this guide )

Hi,
If you read well you don`t see any dualtouch on mini or mini pro. I can`t be blamed if people get so excited and don`t read can i?
I put that way (hard) because it`s harder. Well not harder but need more stpes to accomplish final result.
And last. From 026 version and next we`re only be able to flash through this type of files(ftf).
Hello =)
Thanks for your work! First, my english isn't very rich so dont blame me if i make some mistakes =S
So i tried to activate JIT after rooting my x10 mini using your flashtool. Everything was right until the reboot. It is said in other forum the reboot would take at least 5min but in my case, it took more than 1hour!!
So now i'm stuck on the SE logo for more than 2 hours (lol). Can anyone help me solving this problem please?
Thanks !

hi people !
i tryed flashing my x10 mini with this manual. but process is wery slowly. from 2 houwers i flashing only: kernel, amms, fota and dsp... This is only 40 Mb... The system files is 230 MB. My buttery can't working more then 4-5 howers when phone is flashing, how i can flashing qucly? May be i do something wrong?
Win 7 32bit, releases of fireweare and flashtool is latest from this site.
Hey dude, I think you might be trying to flash the X10 firmware on you mini... not a good idea... (as the X10 firmware is way bigger and won't fit on a mini, not that it would work even if it did fit )
I suggest downloading the right version for your phone.. a mini is an E10i/a and a pro is a U20i/a
and @Rendeiro.
Thanks for adding the warning to the top of the Noob guide should save us some headaches until the new version is out and working (then we can work on a mini instruction set.. seems a waste of time re writing it until the new version is released)
you da man!

My only question is:
I want to flash a E10i (2.1.1.A.0.6) firmware on my E10a (2.0.A.0.504) firmware.
My phone is a Xperia X10 Mini (not a PRO). Can i use this FlashTool to do it? Will i get any trouble with it?
The flashtool is an universal x10 tool. It was build to work on every x10 family, so yes. Use at your will

The Rom is no longer available.
Due to continuous requests for support and / or update requests to share some graphics depending on the needs that come to me that I can not fulfill for lack of time I feel obliged to delete that forum from Rom.
It does not seem right to leave here with the rom of my continuous questions intervention I can not answer because of personal commitments to which the Rom

This also does not seem to me a little courtesy to those questions that could not be answered.
I thank the entire community of xda.

As for the touch screen I need to know if the problem on all or Synaptics or Cypress?
I do not know if I can solve this problem is difficult because I work without a device to lean on as I have a "mini X10" however you are allowed to download and unpack the rom, try and change it to seek a solution to this problem.
Regarding the source codes are a mix of new and old.
Those scores are obtained in quadrant mode performance to min & max 729mhz 729mhz. quadrant in this condition varies from 1160 to 1360.
Can someone make a SE style (XPERIA Arc) with latest CM7 by Slade?
It will be awesome...

Regarding the problem of the touch screen the only THOUGHT that I got for now is to first to load the rom to change system / lib / modules
1) File "x8gesture" update it to version 6
2) Delete file "cy8ctma300_ser"
While in etc, change the file "hw_config" and put the one you use normally.
Now zipped and run the installation steps.
I do not know if it works, and only a test.

[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!
Powered by Xperia ™
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] Mini Pro Dualtouch Problem

Hey Guys
I didn't got the dualtouch of Slade (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1064558)
working on my mini pro (got all the requirements).
Weird is, that I got it working before I made a mistake with flashing a custom.zip,
that was not made for mini pro (really dumb, I know )
So I had to reflash with SEUS (bootloop) and got Slades CM7 with MiniCM7 for Mini Pro v14.5.
But when I now try to pich-zoom in Browser or any other app it doesn't do anything.
Would be really awesome if someone got a clue for me,
why it isn't working
If you got any questions related to my device, baseband etc. please ask
Greetings from Munich

Try to reinstall the dualtouch driver.
For me works (I had the same problem).
Which one did you take, because there are two:
One in zip for xrecovery and another with manual installation ?
Thanks

You can install keyboards from play store (no root needed), although I'm pretty sure you will soon realize that integrated keyboard is actually very good.
Before you start using these attached zip files that you are supposed to 'flash with recovery', I suggest you to google every one of those words that you just said you don't know what they mean, and read a little about it.
Also if you search this forum, you will find guides on everything that you asked for in your post.
Man try this all new Keyboards just from the oven, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1684077
