[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] obsidian_eclipse:
One of the main concerns for me is making sure you have the correct baseband for the new ROM. You usually have to flash this using 'flashtool' or similar, the baseband ROMs are fairly easy to get hold of if you google the version numbers. 'Flashtool' can usually root the phone as well as install xrecovery and all the fiddly bits, try as I might I couldn't install xrecovery or get root acess no matter what tool I used on the x10 mini pro. 'Flashtool' on the PC did it all with a couple of mouse clicks.

If your phone doesn't work after flashing (I.e. it gets bricked) and you don't feel confident then SEUS will usually resurrect it - just select the option to reinstall despite having latest software. Its rare that the phone will be completely bricked beyond redemption, although it can happen I might add.

When you've installed a new ROM, I recommend cyanocomb 1.3 (just read all the forum posts first as some people have issues - and nobody likes the same questions being asked every third post!), allow your phone 20 mins to build its cache files before leaping into action and installing things as this can cause problems.

Cyanocomb installs CWM in place of xrecovery. It is a much better recovery program in my opinion. However, make sure you use the right ROMs with the right recovery program.

Its a complicated business. Just read the forums and write down the various steps so you've got something to work from and get all the various tools and roms together you might need before you begin. You will be surprised at the lack of insite shown by some people who dive in and bodge their phones, usually asking elementary questions which have already been answered if they could be bothered to read the forum before starting.

I'm not an expert, but I did read the forums and managed to try every ROM in the 'devs' section without the need to badger the developers about 'boot loops', which are clearly user errors not ROM faults. Remember, the developers are doing smashing work and all they ask is some common sense and courtesy shown by other forum members, not to be plagued by incompetance and ignorance.

By posting here before flashing you've shown some wisdom, so I wish you well and hope others can share their experience with you.

thanks for the advice, still reading the forums as you suggested at the moment. once ive got a clear idea in my head of what im doing i will of course let you know how i got on (and hopefully have a working phone to boot!!!)

thanks

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] logansfolly:
brick wall time i guess. So i have managed to root the phone using as suggested 'flashtool'. phone rooted no problem, xrecovery apparently is installed. however my brick wall so to speak is that despite numerous searches of the x10 forum this evening i cannot for the life of me see how flash the rom on to the phone. im stuck and do not know what to do.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] milan86:
After installing xrecovery you will probably need to install CWM beacause all new ROMs are created to be flashed with CWM and not Xrecovery. If you are on stock Rom this can help you The easiest way to install CWM on Stock Rom for Mini Pro

After you done this, download any custom ROM you want, place it in your SD card, boot into CWM recovery, choose first wipe user data, then choose advanced and wipe Dalvik cash and baterry stats.

After that choose INSTALL CUSTOM ZIP and find that zip on your SD card and flash it. That should be it.

Oh one more thing.... Make backup before you do any of this (just in case).
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] logansfolly:
Many thanks, shall attempt this tonight and post my results accordingly
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] logansfolly:
its been 22 minutes since i installed the rom and im looking at a boot screen still, is this normal? dont want to go to my backup without giving it a fair chance!!!

used this rom btw http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1051678
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] logansfolly:
appears to have caught itself in a boot loop so am restoring my backup of the original rom that was there so at least the phone is working. if at first you dont succeed try try again.

at least now i have an idea of what it is im doing, many thanks for all the advice.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
What is the Number that gets displayed in the top right corner taking 2D pics. It flashes up briefly when camera is first displayed right after taking a pic. I have everything set to fac defaults and can't figure it out.

Reason I'm asking is b/c I have 2 3D's here(one is a exchange) and am trying to figure out which im keeping. Taking photos in the exact same location i seem to have each phone showing different values in the top corner and can't figure out why.

both ver2 hardware, one has the OTA one doesn't. The one that doesn't has dimmer/darker whites on the screen and noticed the screen on that one is actually shown as "panel: mipi_cmd_novatek_qhd" using dmesg in terminal. The new one is brighter whites, and shows "Panel Type = PANEL_ID_SHR_SHARP_NT" for it. I got the first one with the early premier offer. The 2nd one(sharp) has the brighter whites(maybe lil fake whites not sure) but screen is little less tilted, than the original one, BUT the power button is much mushier than the original which had a tough defined click. Tried switching out the battery covers and same result even.
[HTC EVO 3D] hchavarria:
The only number that shows up on mine is the number that displays how many pictures you can take based on the storage available. The two might display different numbers because one has the update and the other doesn't there one consuming more free space than the other.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
ahhh thatd be it then haha, they both have diff cards in so that explains it all.

Now I am wondering if the cameras are lil different in the phones as even sending the pics in email to my home pc they look different so its not just the screen showing the whites difference. Also the pics ended up being different sizes one 611KB and other 776KB(older 3D with novatek panel).

Now whats even funnier is that when you select the photo in the gallery and view details the Newer3D(brighter whites) lists it at 478KB and the other 3D(original) lists its size at 613KB. This is different fromt he size thats listed when you email it, and even whats listed next to it when you attach it in an email.
[HTC EVO 3D] johnequickiii:
What I want to know is where the setting is to time stamp your pictures. It was a basic setting in the pic app on my Hero.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spovik:
I'm currently using the latest CM7 (Release 89 Mod version 7-0722201) and I have a few questions about the market included.

I'm pretty green so I don't know if this is possible or I'm missing something obvious.... I used to run stock ROM rooted before switching to Bionix2 and then to CM7. In both the stock ROM and Bionix, there was a way to disable checking for version updates in the market, CM7 doesn't seem to have that.

Is there any way to disable checking for updates?

Second question, the market in CM7 includes book and movie categories, of which I have zero interest, is there any way to filter them out or can I go to an older version of the market?

So far I love it, and the customization is amazing (thought the 2g/3g notification widget toggle doesn't seem to work), but this is just one of those nagging nuisances I wonder if anyone had any thoughts. Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Tattooed5150:
Have you tried the main market settings or opening the app and manually selecting auto update?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spovik:
Thanks for the suggestion, but I have. The options in this version of the market seem to be a bit more limited. I can survive I guess with the books and movies, and disabling the updates on a per-app basis, but I"m just kind of surprised.

With all the interface options this ROM has, I can't help but think i'm being a nub and missing something blatantly obvious.

the fact that Android can be ported to WM device does not necessarily implicate that the vice-versa must be possible,

please check this thread esp. post #2
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zedray:
Android is open source, which makes porting and configuration possible.

Unless you happen to have source code for WM.....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] srkoza:
im sure if someone took the time they could, it all comes down to code
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kmakiki:
I mean, now a days it seems porting anything to anything seems possible, but like what has been seen before, seeing as the WM source is, well, Windows, I don't see this happening very easily. Beside, why would you want to do that! SACRILEGIOUS! :D

[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
This has been stated in every other topic.

Droid 2 Global is incompatible with Droid 2 ROMs. The only exceptions being, I think, Liberty and some other one (both can be patched for the A956 by that ROMer software).

Access Control

I think you would have to be using a kernel that has Netfilter fully enabled. It should still let you tether you just can't control who has access to your network (without using WEP or WPA encryption)

If the kernel-feature "CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MAC" is missing the "access control"-feature will not work correctly (you will see a "failed"-status in "Show log" for "Enabling access control")."

I have gone ahead and flashed the Synergy ROM on to my EVO 4G and i have got to say i love it. the only thing is that my HTC facebook account wont sync up and when i try to open the App it just force closes right away with this error:

"the application facebook (process com.facebook.katana) has stopped unexpectedly. please try again."

and i have to forceclose and can never open the app it also has the option to report to google.

i was wondering if anyone else might have this issue or might have a resolve for me?

Thanks in advance guys.

I didn't update to 3.5 yet but at 3.0 I still have trouble with sms. I get them but I don't get any notifications about them even though they are enabled.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Che34:
For me Elelinux GB 3.1 is the more stable AOSP ROM for the moment.

SalsaSense is still laggy sometimes but i'm sure it will be better soon because dev did a really good job on each update :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] FozzySteve:
I'm currently using Elelinux-7.1.0-RC1-Hero-v3.1, its running Android 2.3.5 and runs very slick on my phone. I like the looks of SalaSense though, waiting for everything to be smoothed out in a future release to install though.
