Installation problems

Hi, I am having problems installing this ROM.

I had alraedy installed another version of the rom but was not happy with it.

I booted into CWM did wipe/factory reset flashed the rom and gapps successfully but when I attempt to boot the phone hangs on the sony logo.

Tried to reinstall the rom but now I can't get into CWM, when I repeatedly press the back button the sony ericsson logo now goes dull and hangs.

Please help.

After a calibration and a full drain of the battery, i'm getting about two days of battery life with 2G and light usage... pretty sweet imho :)

if you're getting bootloop with sony logo you have NOT flashed nAn kernel. read the first post and follow the instructions
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Bond246:
I've installed the Rom yesterday after using paul's miniCM7-v21 for a long time.

I was really surprised how great this ROM works. Everything is like charme also with hundrets of apps.

But I have a problem that is pain in the neck.

Sometimes after rotate the screen it splits into two parts. The touch-controll is still the old but the screen is splitted.

I hope you can see it on the attached picture.

I still had reinstall the ROM, but the same problem. I deaktivated the rotation-animations now. But at the moment I can't say if the problem is fixed with that because I don't know exactly what is in charge of to get this bug.

I hope you can help me.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] whittall1:
thanks Rocco

Ive tried that several times but each time i do it the flasher says:-

"start flashing, Flashing loader, ERROR flashing aborted"
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Carpe-Dimi:
How often does it do that? i know there is (or used to be) an issue where this happened, but only affected the statusbar, and that could be solved by rebooting.

I have rotation animations on tho, and this never happens for me.

so have you tried full wiping yet?

Is your bootloader unlocked? Flashtool (the newer versions) should be able to do that for you too

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rocco6victor:
if you want wifi to work, you should only use it with nAn kernel

whittall1, as carpe dimi said, you need to unlock bootloader to be able to flash custom kernel

his bootloader is locked ;)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Bond246:
The Problem seems to be random.

The first time it was after fresh rom-flash.

Then I had a secound full wipe (I ever do that before flashing) and re-flash.

I tested it at this moment for some times, with "soft" rotation and rotations with hardware keyboard and in different apps. Nothing happend. Maybe it is fixed with disabled animations. But maybe it comes againg when i'm not thinking about.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] kinung:
I don't know this is bug or not. This afternoon suddenly phone can't use a2sd 'n read data from sd ext, even I go to Clockmod setting and set up again or I restarted phone. So I've got to reflash again to get it back
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] whittall1:
OK thanks Rocco,

Ive been trying to unlock the bootloader following the instructions for 2 hours now and it doesnt seem to work.

I think i may have hard bricked the damn thing!!

And the latest version of Flashtool doesnt seem to work either
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] StardustGeass:
Have you tried SEUS ? Hope it'll helps...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] whittall1:
Tried SEUS but each time the software is about to identify the phone it gets to the white logo and then disconnects.

This is whats happening with the flash tool.

The flash tool guide says:-

Start Flashtool, connect your phone and then wait for your phone to be recognized.

Then, go to: Plugins/(insert device name here) Unlock/run

A screen will pop up and ask you to connect your phone in Flash mode

But when I click on "Plugins" nothing happens

It worked for me!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Bond246:
The bug is still there. It seems that it comes with rotations based keyboard slide in/out.

I'm thinking on flashing again. But actually I don't like to reinstall everything again :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] whittall1:
Ive tried this and when I run the S1 tool it identifies that it is a SEMC simlock.

But when I run the msm7227 semc tool It just hangs on "getting root rights"

Do you think I should list my problem on the bootloader and kernel guide post?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SpitFire-ZX:
Yes, you can ask there. i also had that problem so i used this one and the scripts in it. this is not an app like the other. dont forget to fallow step by step. have pc companion instaled and all

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Bond246:
The Problem still exists after re-flash.

I also made full wipe/factory reset, then re-flashed and made a new full wipe. Then I used hardware keyboard and again the screen was splitted after rotation.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] matthias1203:
When I am in full dark. Keyboard doesnt work.

Hm and something strange.. Somethimes when writeing i know I only one time press some letter key but puts two letters. ( sorry on my english, hope you understand what I want to say)

Anyone else spoted the same situation??
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Carpe-Dimi:
Stupid question maybe, but It is rooted right? busybox installed and all?

I have opened and closed my keyboard a gazillion times now and still can't make it happen :(

Is it possible that it's your launcher causing this to happen?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] HooLIMAN87:
I have the same problem with my u20 with hardware keyboard since one year ago, i had it even with stock ROM. And my opinion is that some keys became more sensitive when using. But it happens with mostly used keys, not everyone. :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Bond246:
I'm using Go Launcher. But it happens in apps like my sms-app (smsdroid), the dolphin browser HD, configuration-things and so on.

Are they affected by the launcher? What launcher are u using? I'm not really positive about ADW.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] minachvim:
I have the same case this is weird and for more specific description the keyboard light goes on day light with me. But no problem for me with letters :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Carpe-Dimi:
I'm using launcherpro myself. I have no clue wether these other apps are affected by the launcher tho.

If not, it could also have something to do with the performance settings
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] donfr:
I also get this wonderful ROM :D - But, can you tell me about the battery calibration? How do you do that? Do you use a program (battery calibration) or just use wipe battery stat from CWM menu? What about CPU speed, is it still 600 or more? (by overclocking). Thanks so much gan!:cool:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] StardustGeass:
I'm using battery calibration and deleting battery stat from CWM as well :)

And what do you mean about the CPU speed means ? xD

For now, I'm using 320-768 interactivex governance, and its smooth, very smooth :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] SmaRkieS:
Done updating to 2.1.9 and nAa-11 Kernel... from 2.1.8 .. nAa-10 kernel

Keyboard still won't light up if you slide or on SMS, need to tap the brightness first to light up the keyboard. :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] matthias1203:
For me thet somethimes is double letters was never happen before. Hm, maybe on next version that stop like now starts. But not big deal.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] StardustGeass:
I found that issue since I first using custom ROM (MiniCM7 pro v21) until now...

Meanwhile, a new issue that I've found that sometimes, when opening the lockscreen by sliding the keyboard up, the screen (and the keyboard) light didin't come at all. The screen goes blank and doesn't respond at all as well. I need to press something on my keyboard to function it up.

I tried changing my CPU settings from :

- 122 (min) 600 (max)

- 245 (min) 748 (max)

- 320 (min) 768 (max)

and using smartassv2, ondemand, and interactivex. But none works. For my early conclusion, it's not performance-related issues then.

This never happenned to me before.. Anyone having problem with that as well ?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] OmegaRED^:
True this is happening here too.

press power button.. screen goes black "can only see status bar"..

need to wait for device to become responsive.

MDDI lags perhaps?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] minachvim:
Question :)

hi guys,

i have a question:

we all know the charging behavior of our device it charge till 100 then it stops and drop back to some limit like 94 then go back to charging. do you believe that we can change this behavior to become charge to full if you don't disconnect charger or USB then disconnect battery and reconnect it when disconnected from charger?? is it a hardware case or kernel case??

i believe if we reach this level of modification our battery would last too long!

also i wanna ask nAa would you please share with me the power library code responsible for charging and manage battery consumption i wanna try to give a shot enhancing our battery consumption :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Bond246:
In that moment I wanted to write that I changed to interactiveX yesterday with min. 245mhz and max. 691mhz and now everything is fine. But actually in this moment I slided out the keyboard and the screen splittet - this time only a litte bit...

Later I will check with another launcher.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] donfr:
Thanks for the information, CPU speed means overclocking, I'll try to use the interactiveX governance. Do you still use the original battery of your U20i? :cool:

Bricked???

Hi,

I recently rooted my wifes x10 mini pro and flashed the rom with miniCM7pro v19

She didnt like a couple of things on it so I did a little research and decided to install miniCM7 2.1.9mimmi but I didnt install the correct kernel for the rom and failed to check whether my bootloader was unlocked and this has caused the handset to hang on the SE white logo.

I have tried to unlock the bootloader using the flashtool method as mentioned in this post but I get this error message:-

Sorry guys meant to post this on the bootloader forum !!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DerJonathan:
with all recharchable batteries in the world you will have two effects:

a) the mv will allways be higher when connected to the charger and

b) it will allways charge up to full, then drop a bit, than charge again and so on. you just cannot keep it charged at 100% all the time.

so it is a totaly normal effect you are observing, it is neither a hardweare nor a kernel problem...

Keyboard lights work just fine for me. I noiticed sth else though. I cannot set the widget button order in status bar. Is it only me? The option is in cmsettings-interface-notification power widget-widget button order.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bojler:
for me notification power widget arranging works, i can move all items wherever i want..

btw, i'm experiencing one issue with Vignette (camera app). Whenever i take photos in dark (with flash setting to auto) flash isn't working properly and as result photos are taken without flash... it seems that flash starts too early and turns off to early, before taking photo.

anyone have similar issue? i've tested past 10 versions of Vignette and every time is same result... i'm now using camera zoom fx but i prefer vignette..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] minachvim:
@kissmyarch: i have the same issue with camera as urs...

@bojler: keyboard light problem still exist when it's too dark the keyboard light is off when i have some light the keyboard light is on.

for the widget buttons i can arrange it as i like.

---------- Post added at 05:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 PM ----------

DerJonathan I'm not asking if the battery is affected or a problem i'm trying have a solution to stop the battery from wearing because of charging too much only.

like a laptop for example you can run it without battery and at full battery it's disconnected till the power from the adapter is gone it switch immediately to the battery. that's why a laptop battery could live more than 3 years of heavy usage!

New Adreno Libs

Hey guys, you might want to give them a check. Found them in the x8 forums :D. In antutu the 3D scene with the soldiers gives me a 25 fps from 20 fps that i used to achieve before with 786 Mhz OC. The update.zip might work, haven't tested it, but in case it doesn't work you put them in "system/lib/egl" folder :). Enjoy 'em :)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ttocs99:
Ill be the 1st to tell that the adreno libs flashed fine and I got 21fps on antutu using 245min 600max on interactivex so it does try and I recomend people to flash this

Is Bluetooth working OK for everyone? When I try to connect a Bluetooth device, mainly a media audio device, it connects but the audio cannot be played. Then it disconnects and cannot connect again. If I disable Bluetooth (in order to restart it), afterwards it cannot be enabled again. I need to reboot the phone, and start over and give it a go again. This happens more often than not.

Keyboard light is fixed for me, BTW :)

FYI, I think interactivex is not as "interactive" as ondemand governance, so I;m switching back to ondemand :)

About the adreno libs, I don't understand it quite well, but is that means my phone will get snappier than before ?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] donfr:
Thanks for the information, about adreno libs, it's not my question :confused:. One more thing is about personal ringtone. How do you set your personal ringtone? As we know there's no such menu on the original contact. I use go contact instead, but the personal setting ringtones do not work. When someone called, the ringtone was the phone ringtone only not the personal ringtone that I had set for this person. Is that any other program except "go contact"?:)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] icerebro:
Someone can tell me or explain me, how is the best way for OC our devices, I've always tried it with no succes, because the phone boots in 10 seconds.

Even I tried frecuencies less than 700MHz and the problem is the same.

I need a help about how this works!!

Please someone!

I tried to install WhatsApp and I can not search the forum and there was a possible option installing zip but the error persists, one can help me with this thanks ... :confused:
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] StardustGeass:
Ah... I never used personal contact ringtones.. But, you can set without using any external application. On the original contact, choose one of the contact, press menu key - options - ringtone. Hope that helps :)

Actually, I never had problems like it. Does it even occurs when you use the previous version of this ROM and kernel as well ? If it isn't, maybe you could try reflashing both the ROM and the kernel as well.

Why don't you install whatsapp from market ? It's a lot easier xD

And about installing zips that have errors, maybe you should try redownloading the zip file again. Maybe it's broken. And try flash it again from CWM. Hope that helps :)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ff0000.it:
Hi Bond246,

i opened the bug-tracker on which you add yourself and as far as i could use it in 2.1.9 the issue is gone... i couldn't get what make it happened and i used to use standard applications plus a dozen from the market and i remove a few from /system/app.

Also i remove all kind of animations and effects.

By the way your "splitting" (or better "shifting") is so huge, in my case it was few pixels from the status bar that were displayed on the bottom.

"logcat" seemed to output nothing suspicious.

Have you flash the new Gapps suggested in the first thread? nAa change the link from gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip to gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip... i don't know if they could be the cause but it's worth a try :-)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Malcolm Reed:
Well, as I experienced this is a very strange problem. I set a personal ringtone too but I use the default Contacts app. The result: sometimes (about 30% of calls) I hear the personal ringtone but I usually hear the "normal" ringtone.

I have a theory about this. I think the phone can't recognize the phone number (with the contact) soon enough. So it starts to ring with the "normal" ringtone instead of the personal ringtone.

So are there any solution for this? :)

I use MortRing. You can download it from the market. It is written by the same person that wrote MortPlayer which is excellent.

a2sd far less free memory

With use of version 2.1.8 of this (perfect :) ) ROM i get far more free memory for my apps then by the use of a2sd in version 2.1.9.

Even if a use the xdata option its far less and by the use of this option i can't install anything anymore (yes i know it's an expiremental option).

By the way; using the noxdata option had me restore a backup (was in bootloop after issueing noxdata).

What about porting back the sd card code which run perfect in version 2.1.8 OR (just to ask) am i doing something wrong :confused:.
