Whatever is the phone, just check the rom GingerDx. Please be sure to browse it in the right forum (mini or mini pro). If the phone is mini pro (the one with keyboard) you can also check the rom MiniCM7 Pro, by b-paul.
These roms doesnt require custom kernel neither unlocked bootloader, but they need latest firmware (ended in 015)

There isn't much choice for the x10mini unfortunately.
I guess you could try an older version of MiniCM7, before the 2.1 incarnations they ran on stock kernel, it can still be downloaded from nAa's google-code page
2.0.7 is the last one to run on stock kernel, based on Gingerbread 2.3.5.

Rom
thanks every one
because i have X8 and i know about GingerDx. in my phone it works with stock and alfs kernel. does it work on stock kernel on X10 mini?
when i was looking on site i saw a Ginger Rom for X10 mini working on stock kernel. it is MiniCM7Pro.
does it work on stock kernel??? between GingerDx and minicm7pro witch one is better?
thanks.

On the x10mini pro you've got more choice than on the x10mini If it's got a slide-out keyboard you've got an x10mini pro and you can choose MiniCM7Pro, ArcMiniNxt and GingerDX seems to work on stock kernel too.
I'm sure i've forgotten one or two others.
Without the keyboard, you've got an x10mini and you've got no real choice whatshoever, because just about all Gingerbread roms require the nAa kernel.

Its X10 mini. i know it dears
what is you idea?
witch stock rom for X10 mini?

Andread maybe, or an older version of MiniCM7 (2.0.7 is the last one that worked on stock kernel).
Andread is available in the x10mini dev section
MiniCM7 as well, but you have to click the brown 'Downloads' text in the opening post. That will bring you to nAa's google-code download page where all ROMs he's ever made are available for download. Scroll down to find 2.0.7, it's based on Gingerbread 2.3.5 and works quite well.

I don't know what are you saying
i need a 2.3 rom that working on stock kernel
tell me

It's a custom 2.3 rom
You need to root your phone, then install xrecovery, then flash the baseband with flashtools & then flash the rom's zip file with xrecovery
If you follow the steps in my first link (the one to Sony) you will be rooted and have xrecovery installed.
Then the fun starts.
The geniuses (geninui?) on here have Custom Roms which you can install through xrecovery.
The rom is basically your operating system. You are most likely on stock SE 2.1 which is OK but any time I have had to go back I ain't stayed long.
I recommend 2.2 its a good way to start and it's solid. Also sync your contacts to gmail.

Unlock Bootloader.

Hi. I have some doubts about this, I wanna try the last rom by nAa, and it ask for a unlock bootloader and nAa Kernel, my quiestion is: After doing that is there any way for getting back to the original kernel, I mean PC companion will work? and restore it like factory?
Thx!
Don't worry, you can flash anytime back to stock kernel, witch is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403808
Thnx, but I meant Mini pro u20...
Btw, if I have a Backup with Minicm7 by paul in cwm with stock kernel, if then I flash Naa kernel, if I restore the backup I had, it comes with the stock kernel??
No. CMW backups the ROM and its data. To revert back to stock kernel you just have to DL a stock kernel file from the site and flash it.
And the bootloader re-lock?
What are the benefits for having an unlocked bootloader, using a rom in stock kernel...
If you're using stock kernel and dont plan on using a custom kernel, there's no benefit.
The whole purpose of unlocking BL is to be able to flash a custom kernel. there are pretty whack custom kernels around which, naturally, are better than stock.
So, what are the benefits of using Custom Kernel?
My x10 mini pro is running paul-xxx's miniCM7pro version 17, and the result I got from S1tool were: SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE (that means I can unlock it right?). My question is can I continue the unlocking process, or do I need to downgrade my phone first to stock firmware?
I'm doing this for my brother so I haven't been much on this sub-forum.
Thanks
I was like you, in the cm7 by paul, I flashed normally with no downgrading....
Just do it...!!

Depends on the kernel you're using. NAa's is the best one out there. Zombie panic is at par with it. Tonnes of features with outstanding speed and stability.
But i guess you're aware of it now

MiniCM7Pro will only run on the stock kernel, there was no need to unlock your bootloader, and most certainly not to install a custom kernel. Get back to stock kernel (I think there's a link provided for a kernel you can flash with flashtool) and then run MiniCM7Pro.

No, the order doesn't really matter, but your phone will only work if you pair the right kernel and the right rom together. The ROM post will state which kernel it will run on.
so for:
MiniCM7Pro - Stock Kernel
MiniCM7 - nAa-13 Gingerbread kernel
ArcMiniNxt - Just about every kernel
MiniCM9 - nAa-04 ICS kernel

Just about all roms that state they're based on CyanogenMod (CM) include App2SD by default, all you have to do it activate it in settings.
ArcMiniNxt is a Gingerbread ROM with a sony ericsson framework, so it will look and work a bit like the original firmware, but based on Gingerbread, and it will run on the stock kernel. It seems smooth and easy on battery-life.
MiniCM7 is sort of the 'default' ROM to go for if you want Android look-and-feel, it is further developed than MiniCM7Pro, but you will need the nAa-gingerbread kernel for it. It is also very smooth and fast.
Mind you, nothing is perfect, you can expect some problems with your keyboard layout and keyboard lights on all Gingerbread ROMS, but there are fixes for that if you care to search through the x10minipro development forum

Best Rom & xrecovery

I have sony ericsson xperia x10 mini pro.
Model: U20i
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Band: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Kernel: 2.6.29 [email protected] #1
Build: 2.1.1.A.0.6
I have root right but don't have xrecovery, how to install it? ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950324 i have read here but when don't find install busybox in titanium backup)
I need a rom with 2.3, ottimized for NO gaming but for save battery who can advise me? Don't need any useless application for example google maps, facebook, voice service etc..
Since you already rooted your phone, use RecoverX to install CWM or xrecovery...
Rom
Yup i have install cwm
For rom?

There is no point on asking this!
It could end with lots of different opinions, as IAmNice has already said.
But, since you have already installed CWM, practically you can try different roms very quickly. After a few installations you will probably have decided what's best for you.
Then, you could just make a backup and in the future try other roms that appear without the risk to install everything "from the scratch"...
First you should try some, that runs on the stock kernel (if you are not shure what that is, then just avoid ROMs that requires a custom kernel of any kind).
ROMs are the ones in XPERIA X10 Mini Pro Android Development section with title start with [ROM]...
You should focus on Gingerbread ROMs (CM7, 2.3.x). And don't try the ones that requires extra modules if they are not available. Mostly this means "older" ones. But they are often stable and fast and uses less battery :laugh:
Just to set you off on a good start:
SonyStyle - V1.1 FINAL
MiniCM7Pro - V21 (For Stock kernel)
Cyanogen Gingerbread CM7 based on MiniCM for MiniPro (v15.0)
xCyanogenPro - Gingerbread - v12
Flame.GDX ICS (2.3.7 nightly) 8/12/2011
Andread 2.2.9 Pro v9f - Andread 2.3.5 Pro v3 only 63Mb
As you start to try different roms and gets used to the process you can then unlock bootloader and install custom kernel <- wait to do this untill you feel ready and have read about other users trouble.
Don't know if it's the best but I recommend MiniCM-2.2.1 (by nAa and D_d). Here.
However now I'm testing MiniCM10-4.0.2... and so far so good.
Go for

i believe that the best rom is ginger sony v5 and not v6 because it has some bugs
There is no such thing.
