So there are plenty of great ROMS out there that are ICS optimized with this and that but they are always themed a way or another. I'm searching for a full Sony Ericsson stock look (yes, that includes the notification bar !).
I'm a stock guy and I don't care if it's HTC, Motorola, Miui or CyanogenMod, I always use the roms with their stock look when I can. In fact, I always thought that devs should always release their Roms with a stock look and make the themes an extra (through zip or aroma option). You know what they say about tastes...
So is there a rom out there for the Mini Pro based on an official Sony release with a stock look ?
Thanks !
this might be what you are looking for.

Looks nice but the accelerometer is not working in there...
Is there a way to flash the Xperia framework on some of the themed roms ?

Hello Guys i am a proud owner of the x10i and i am forever flashing with custom roms. I am sure you are aware that Gingerbread has been released for the xperia models and like with the x10i is anyone going to take the stock rom and tweak it to be faster than normal. My girlfriend hates her x10 mini pro and i am trying to help her like it as she cannot upgrade until January.
Thanks in advance guys
Marti
Ps i ask for a tweaked stock rom as she would like all features to work if at all possible
I'm aware of 2 Eclair ROMs for the mini pro
Sony Ericsson W8 E16i Port
Iridium rom (U20i)
I just made my own custom 2.1 ROM in a couple of hours time using dsixda kitchen.
Base ROM : 2.1.C.0.0
Modifications:
-removed a ****load of apps/games/services/wallpapers etc.
-dual recovery
-end call with sleep button
-change AZERTY -> QWERTY
-HTC Black Theme by draco_ag
-standard launcher replaced with zeam 2.8.8
etc.
It's mega-fast! (and stable!)
heya, X10i is the regular xperia x10 yeh?
if so, would have to disappoint you in that there is no stock froyo or gingerbread for minipro
also none of the custom roms, even those based on the stock one, will work with timescape i think.
but, there are still some good roms out there
- For froyo you might want to try out cyanocomb or FroyoCM 6 (also look for madbulls hotfix to v6.01.2)
- For gingerbread i'd definately advise GingerDX
also, gingerDX works with the SE Active launcher (much like the stock SE one)

To look for stock based roms Head over this post>>>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1587177
Hello community, this is my first post. I'm no complete noob. I 'm coming from the symbian s60v5 modding community. Now I own an xperia mini and would like to know if the cyanogen mod is stable and recommendable for it.
Btw: Is German supported by the cyanogen mod?
yesterday I test Cynogenmod 7 (CM7) and install it on Xperia Mini Pro but I got some problem such as:
> touchscreen not working
> bootloop (yes, I already clear the cache / data / system in CWF but still-)
so I will say 'no' because its still unstable
most of cyanogenmods have bugs. i have used it in my x10 mini pro. i'd no recomment it because xperia mini have 1ghz processor + 512 mb ram which run hvga screen. you dont need to overclock it. + androjd version is latest. so better stick with stock rom
Thank you. Maybe the Cyanogen 9 will be better. What about the FXP - Project? Any experiences with that? What mod are you using? Or do you use stock rom?
i m using stock and pretty satisfied with it.
FXP is also based on cyanogenmod.
We still have 3 newer firmwares from Sony (4.0.2.A.0.58 , .61 , .62 that not have yet been released worldwide. And in 3 months official Android 4 is coming. Why bother with unofficial ones? What are the benefits ?
On older X10 mini was logical because Sony didn't upgrade past android 2.1.

agreed
and also sony ericssons stock rom is best looking rom in my opinion
Maybe you are right. Sounds all pretty logic. Is it possible to OC the CPU? Is it dangerous?
(I think I need to mod something. I 'm addicted to that. Even Symbian was crap, I could do a lot of modding with it. It was easy and it was fun. I 'm unsure if I would be able to sit on stock and wait for ICS)
What about languages and keyboard that has always been a big problem in symbian modding. How is that here?

yes you can overclock but only in custom rom. thats not dangerous if you know the limits . but right now people are experiencing some problems with custom kernels like screen doesn't responds after flashing a custom kernel. so you better skip it for now.
dont know about what do you meant by keyboard and languages but that's never been a problem to me.
What im asking is if there is a way to install Android 2.3 on my mini without using cyanogenmod (i think it looks ugly and dont run well) i think like official version of 2.3 instead of this super modded versions u only find
Devellop an aosp gb rom
No actually there is no other rom
Edit: WOW 100th post, Senior Member
Try this it´s stocklike
hi , I think it's will be useful

it's xperia arc theme an looks like the original theme
i want gingerbread 2.3 sony stock rom , is there any flashable zip files for it ? or atleast i want the stock firmware download link? can someone plzzzz giv me that
All 2010 devices from sony ( x10, x8, x10 mini, x10 mini pro and whatever i forgot to mention ) have been given an update to Android 2.1 (Eclair) and that's it.
There is no Stock Rom for our devices from there on, so no Froyo or Gingerbread. The reason this site exists is to allow us to bypass the limitations set by the hardware manufacturers and run software beyond what they give us.
So, if you want Froyo or Gingerbread.. run a custom rom, you can find many of them in the development section of this forum. If you want Gingerbread or ICS stock.. buy a newer device from Sony

Just in case you're not aware of it, your phone needs an unlocked bootloader to do that, pay very close attention to see if your simlock-certificate is supported, otherwise you will lose the capability to use it as a phone.
Kernel: nAa kernel for gingerbread
Rom:MiniCM7-2.2.0
Sony style: Sony Ericsson Stock Mod
Have fun with it

- there's no sony JB rom as we never get official JB (only CM)
- the best sonyUI themed JB rom is jelly vanilla ex (in my oppinion thats why i use it)
- but always keep in mind that stuff like xloud will may not work proper (full like on stock), or even do nothing like bravia on cm-JB-roms)
