Hi,
I have moved forward from X10 Mini to Nexus 4.
Mini is still working rock solid with MiniCM10 and nAa JB 5 kernel.
I am not willing to put down this device, thus thought why not convert this device as Media Player (iPod) as well as can use it as second camera and backup phone.
This primary usage will be as Media Player. Hence kindly suggest following
1. A good Media Player app for Mini
2. How can i cut down the memory load to give lag free experience in media player.
3. Suggest some light weight launcher, or how can i make media player to comeup as default instead of launcher.
Is XBMC a good option?
Kindly pour in your suggestions.
Thanks
Viny

I love the MIUI but I have been skeptical about trying it because I'm too attached to Samsung's specially designed apps such as the Allshare (DLNA), Email (split view), Samsung keyboard, Memo, Kies Air, photo editor and Video Maker and Voice Talk (home button double click).
From what I read, these are built on a different framework than the MIUI (CM7) which will not work. Very sad face.
So the real question is, is there a way to port any of the mentioned apps over to MIUI?
A alternative for Allshare that I would recommend is Skifta. I even use it on my phone which is a stock based rom since it is better in the area of the phone as the player since Allshare is hard coded to use the stock video player and will not let you select a different installed player which means lower format support and you can't stream mkv's to the phone from a server even though the phone could play the same file if it is on the sdcard.
For phone to other device it has the same capabilities.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Thanks shadowofdarkness, unfortunately it doesn't seem to work properly. When I click on Music it just sits there for a while, and non of the movies play. I'm thinking maybe I need another player?
I noticed it's beta, so it might be in the process of being fixed.

What is your setup, is the phone the server or player? On my phone I prefer MX video player in SW mode for best compatibility.
I have the following devices and have not had any real problems
Phone server/client
XBMC server/client
MythTV server only
The clients especially TVs can have low format support since a lot of manufacturers only put in the most heavily used formats and can even have problems with variations of certain codec profiles.
All my media is stored on a windows 7 pc that has media stream server enabled. So whatever I have in My Music, My Video and My Pictures is easily viewed in Allstream. Skifta looks great btw, just hope they fix the issues soon.

Id say that if you like those special services that samsung provides don't install MIUI. Currently it is on v4 for the GS3, nevertheless the beta is on its way and is being tested as we speak. The GUI is really nice, but you DO loose some special services.

Hello,
I'm now using an other phone and I want to use my X10 as music player for in my car.
I only want a music player on my phone and nothing else. Is this possible?

Yes.
You'll still need the core operating system and it's dependencies.
You can probably delete approx 30-50 applications from within /system/app and free up a running environment of over 180MB of RAM
Even on a stock GB 2.3.3, I'd still root the device and use a modified Kernel like DoomKernel v6, just so you have the best the phone has to offer.
Off interest, the above configuration does allow for .mkv 720p (H264,AC3) movies to be played too.
The camera could make a good travel video recorder too. This way your friends don't laugh at you when you say you saw a man driving a sofa with a coffee table down the M25.
It has been reported that a Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10i will support a SanDisk 64GB MicroSD card reformatted to FAT32.
But like anything there have also been tears :crying: reported too.
I have a 32GB SanDisk card in mine and been running it that way for over a year.
If you store Google maps offline, you can use your phone as a Navigation system as well and it "shouldn't"[citation needed] need a SIM card in it or any WiFi/3G access.
I've run my X10i without a SIM card for months and it works fine using WiFi only.
The Sony Ericsson X10i natively support .wma files which is a bonus. Newer Sony phones don't, however the newer phones do support .flac natively.
I use Neutron Music player with .ogg and .flac files which are mostly streamed from my NAS.

What music player are you going to use?????
DonutHD ROM comes with a pretty good stripped down environment and generally quite stable.
If I remember correctly it has all the social media removed already with only about 96 system apps of which maybe only another 10 could be removed if your wanted to take it to the extreme. Such as gmail.apk, email.apk, gtalk.apk etc, etc.
I was wondering if exist, or if it's possible to build, a special android release for old smartphones without basic phone functions, to be used just as standalone media player. I mean a basic distribution that allow just playing local audio files or remote files through wifi home network.
I have an old xperia x8, which is a good phone and there are a lot of android based custom roms, but i need to use it just as a media player.
As soon as I power it on it has to show a list of music files to play.

Bump!
I think this is quite an interesting question. I'm using my old Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) as a media player, and I've installed Cyanogenmod on it. I'm playing the songs (local) with the built-in Appolo, but if there were to be a music player ROM, I would be interested.
Maybe using a Slim ROM (SlimBean, SlimKat, etc.) and using the SlimSizer option to get rid of unnecessary things could be a way to get a version of Android stripped of everything you don't need in a music player. However, that won't show the list of tracks when booting the phone.

Hello, in first, i am sorry for my bad english and i hope i am in the right forum for ask this.
I have a problem whit my new android tv box (Mxq pro 4k android 8.1), this problem occur only whit wuffy media player. When i read a video or a stream and when the player go to full screen, the brightness go up automatically. I cant find a solution to solve it. I allready check the wuffy media player settings but i find nothing. I dont not have this problem whit others players like Xmtv but i want to use wuffy (better stream quality).
I have another android tv box whit android 7 and this one do not have this brightness problem whit wuffy, so maybe a incompability whit android 8.1 and the wuffy media player?
Thank you for help.
EDIT: i upload a video on youtube for show the problem --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NI0vsjHYI3Q&feature=youtu.be
Same here, is there any of their developers here on xda?
Hi people,
probably a totally stupid idea but does anyone know if this would maybe be possible to build and compile android go for the x10 mini?
its an old phone but it’s still pretty cool due to its unique size. So I was thinking maybe the optimisations made with GO would help the x10 be able to run more up to date firmware that can install apps etc now still.
I have been out of the android scene for a very long time now so forgive me if this is a stupid question
From Android 5.0 the ART environment is used
ART is not compatible with ARMv6 processors (MSM7227 found in Xperia X8 and X10 MIni is ARMv6)
So we can conclude that higher Android 5.0 will not work on Xperia X10 Mini and X8.
We won't even see the Launcher as it uses ART to run.
