I came across the following doubt, it is possible to dual boot on xperia neo / v? (MT15 and MT11)
general section->search "dual boot" and read reply's.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=65682006
Further to those threads after searching, even though they say xperia phones do not support dual booting it will be possible. I dual booted my xperia x10 and that is an older phone.
However, it will need a dev to look at it and I am not sure anyone will do that and as one of the threads said, DooMLord has stopped support for the NEO (A great shame, he is the main man for xperia phones IMHO) so unless someone takes this project on I dont think we willsee it happen
Tbh, in theory it can be done, but I don't see the point. There is no universal kernel and the point at which could be hijacked would be post kernel, just like cwm so you could only boot 2xgb or 2xics etc which is an unlikely scenario for many to want.

Well at xda developers do something because they can.
Not because it is wise to do .

Well, it was possible, nobodyAtall made it possible with his ROM called MiniCM, but you had to edit the ramdisk or something if you were a developer and wanted to use it on other ROMs too. But he abaddoned it because it's kinda useless and that's why it doesn't exist on our phones. Not to mention that you had to use a +10 class SD in order not to wait for it to boot more than 15 mins.

Maybe it is question, but there is general section where people can discuss about something, like this dual boot for example, so there is justified reason to search there.
Just saying for future
could someone take a look at this? -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1866675
is this method can apply to our devices?

We cannot repartition, our neo are mtd (similar to raid, sections are mounted for a particular use, but we don't know exactly where the critical stuff is) and with no dedicated separate boot, messing with it is likely to lead to a hard brick with no fast boot/flash mode.

Hi guys.
EDIT for the people who dont read
I know there are custom roms for the X10!
My question is whether there are FULL custom roms that replace the stock completely (like HTC phones for example)
back to original post:
I've been out of the X10 world for a while but looking to get a second phone and the price/hardware of the X10 makes it interesting (although I hated it when I had my first one due to the software restrictions)
I had a bit of a read, and it would seem the bootloader has been cracked.
Can we already get full custom roms to the X10, or are we still using xexec tricks to boot a different kernel?
I'm sure the answer must be somewhere in here but I could not find it clearly.
thanks
Lol wow u gotta be joking.

Yeah. Did you really ask this question?
There are two kinds of custom ROMs for the Xperia x10
1. Using default 2.6.29 kernel by SE, but built with different system files. An example of this would be WolfBreak's CM, and Trip's MIUI
2. Using a customized 2.6.29 kernel, loaded via the kexec exploit. An example of this would be Jerplea's CM7 ROM, RC4 V014 k001 preview.
Next time, at least read the THREAD TITLES BEFORE POSTING

What are you talking about? Oo
"Still using kexec..."??
It is the only way to boot custom Kernels ... and it's not less worth than the other ways to boot Kernels ... and the ROMs we have here are very good.

You know, I thought this thread would end up like this.
there are always people who believe everyone should know everything and live and breathe on the xda forum.
I know there are custom roms, but that was not the question, just the title of the thread.
I will edit my first post to avoid confusion.
now for the ones who wish to help.
My impression was the current ROMs were actually piggybacking from the stock SE.
thus the performance was not as good as a, let's say, HTC with same specs.
my question is whether we can flash a rom on the phone, the same as with HTC phones, and completely replace/erase, and not have anything to do with stock anymore since I really dispised the Sony software.

Its not possible to flash directly to the phone yet and maybe never. For this you need to crack the bootloader.
its so dificult to read and search ? stop asking questions in dev thread for this xda created Q&A section ! thx
--PLEAS MOD. MOVE THIS THREAD IN CORRECT SECTION --
In short... there are many really nice roms, all of them still on SE kernels except the one from J. My favourite is trips MIUI and it works like a charm. I don't give a **** about whether it runs on stock or modified or a completely rewritten kernel as long as all the things i care for work. And i think in the end that's what counts. To have a fully functional phone that you enjoy using. Sure 30fps limit removal is nice but hey how many can really tell the difference in everyday use? More likely to prove to themselves they had been right when they payed for x10, and yes it can do this and that other thing....
Base is if you like it as a phone buy it if not then go buy something else and not this one, trying to prove that it's something else than it really is...
personally i love it since day one 11 months ago. loved it on 1.6, 2.1 and now on 2.2
And yes: wrong thread m8. u should post in Q&A
pretty sure all the custom roms aren't piggybacking the stock s.e and they are flashed to the nand thus replacing it - the only thing that couldnt be changed was the kernel, which can be now
you can tell it's been a bad day for people on xda forums when they belittle you while not even answering the question you ask....
It is getting close to removing the restrictions SE have applied to their Kernal...
The work the devs are doing here and speed they are doing it will get some nice custom kernals and roms before 2.3 is released by SE...
Hopefully alot sooner...
Good luck in your decision.
~Mod move to Q&A please... Might be more helpful for others aswell as OP!

thanks for the answer.
that was my understanding as well.
I sold my X10 a few months back when they still had the first custom roms, back then i was following all the thread, and knew of the progress.
It would seem things have got better since then but still quite not there yet.
PS: I like your signature ;-)
Yes there's are a few
And right now there is:
- A modded kernel for TripNMiUI (Complete 2.2 Miui) with no frame cap
- A complete vanilla FroYo
- A few complete CM6.1.3 ROMS
- A few WIP ROMS that will get completed from Trip (I hope! (; )
- CM7 isn't far from completion
- And kernel work is making progress
So overall its a good times to join the X10 community with all the progress recently x)
Sent from my X10i TripNMiUI using XDA Premium App
Trip released a Cyanogen 6, which was modified by Wolfbreak.. aside from all mounts being rw and confusion that since followed, it's a complete Froyo. There's many other great choices so in future, search and post questions into q&a
Edit: Trips froyo was based on Zdzihu. The next big issue is the CM7 Gingerbread.

Yes just root the phone then download flashtool for PC (which you can find in this forum) install xRecovery using flashtool then install the roms through xRecovery
There is tons of info and threads about xRecovery so you search for it mate

Hey, as you know, the 2011 xperias are now releasing android 2.3.4 and was wondering if there was any way we could flash the software over to the x10. If so, will the flash include facebook inside xperia 2.0? thanks

Q&A
Actually don't open it I'll answer it now. If you want Facebook 2.0 I'm sure someone will port it, if you want 2.3.4, scroll down two items and there is 2.3.5.
There isn't much difference between the versions anyway, and if there is, it won't matter to us anyway.
If you want to look good in front of your friends, go to build prop and change android version to 25543.3
If you want a vacation keep posting in the wrong sections so next time QUESTIONS IN Q&A please.

Good news
The Sony Xperia S is being added to AOSP as the first experimental device:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/sony-xperia-s-added-to-aosp-as-experimental-device/
Check out the dev discussion forum (if you're interested in contributing or just learning how to build a complete ROM from sources (like I am)):
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/android-building/zji_sQGN9Oo/discussion
This should really amp up development for our device. :good:
XDA-Developers video mostly musing on why they have chosen to add experimental devices:

Not exactly that. For now, it's only a project.
Sent from my LT26i with Tapatalk 2
Indeed. But if it comes to fruition, the idea is that.
The experiment is just to see how difficult it would be to add an unsupported device to AOSP without having to make changes to core components of AOSP. I don't think Google will ever maintain updates for this phone, being in the NXT series from Sony, it comes with their own UI.

Why merge so many 2012 Xperia phones in one XDA section??
Its creates a lot of confusion ..
Even Optimus One have its own section.. Clean and simple..
High end phones like Sony XS, T, Acro S, etc should have been placed in a different caregory ( or Even have their own single section...)
Why not!!??

Most of the Xperia phones do have similar hardwares and software, and some of you may find it suitable to discuss the phones in a single section , but this is the problem..
I visit the site to check out a XS thread and I see all the threads of other Xperia models piling up, it makes me feel like a stranger in XS section..
It looks so messed up and unorganised... I feel like nothing new is happening for XS in XDA , just to find out a new and helpful tip by an XS user on the second page which was just posted an hour ago..
I mean if the XS forum wasn't flooded with all the other phones, I would have easily seen the "New and helpful " tip on the 1st page...
I know it not hard to navigate but most new tips, guides, etc threads (For a particular phone) tend to be on the 1st page, thats what my previous phones' threads were like and it was easy to navigate too... I like it thay way...
It would help if, as previously suggested by others, people starting threads would prefix the title with [P] etc
But not everyone is as considerate as me.
