CM gets a meh from me. It's fast and light, yes but a lot of the stock functions are missing. You need to reinstall a whole bunch of stuff if you like the stock ROM. Walkman, trackID, 3D cam, pano cam and the notification toggles are what I miss most.

Used it for about a day or two then flashed other custom ROMs based on stock. Feels more at home that way.. :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
When in stock, back up with Titanium Backup. Then flash CM and restore apps :P

I know you probably know, just sayin' :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] physcodelic:
Yup, successfully unlock my bootloader Rick :D thanks again

Actually on dev thread, I only found changelog for cm7.2 RC.

It said that FM radio and 3d cam not work.

On the CM website, only found changelog for general device, not say anything about FM radio and 3d cam fixes.

Thats why I need a review about that bug...

Yup, it was light :D thats what I like about this rom...

Did it possible to use GB stock app on this rom?

What was work, and what was not work?

I just hate those ADWlauncher, will tried using xperia S mod home if taht possible....

Yup, I already know...but I prefer to add manually using ES file exp.

Feels like have more control on it :D

Iam trying to find toturial about creating CWM flash zip actually.

Some what usefull when Ive got bootloop :rolleyes:

Is it possible to use sony stock apk? atleast sony home apk?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DragonClawsAreSharp:
I do not think so. I am not sure but. You can anyways try.

The home and music player apks have dependancies on the stock resource apk. So chances are thin. But no harm in trying.

CM good music quality

I have used CM 7.2 for sometime.

It has good music quality(head phones since DSP manager is in place)

Battery life not good, stock kernel has less governers and IO schedulers

IF the updates makes it battery efficient I will switch to CM permenantly

Esp batter drain is too much when phone is idle(compared to stock or stock moded ROMS)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
There's also Rage kernel for CM7.2.... It's extremely battery efficient :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] neocyke:
LoL. Yeah, did that too but, ya know.. it just doesn't *feel* the same. I kinda like the sony extras.. I have CM on my X8 (or rather HAD, since my GF uses it now) and the "basicness" of CM makes it feel kinda empty.

Plus for CM is you can install just about anything under the sun and since it's already light to begin with, changing things like launchers ain't a big deal. I had 6 launchers once on CM just to get the right one haha :D

Just to clarify, installing stock sony apps on CM is major work. A lot of things won't run because of missing dependencies. Work on it enough and eventually *some* will work or you could just get replacement apps like Shazam for TrackID, PowerAMP for walkman, CameraFX.. you get the point.

Anyway, when on CM, use Rage Kernel for FXP. Way better than the stock FXP kernel. Battery life improves a lot as iONEx says. Just remember, Rage Kernel for FXP. Not the regular Rage.

Oh, and as at FXP125, Radio does NOT work ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] physcodelic:
Thanks for the review guys :D

Maybe CM is not for me for now....

Miss some sony extra features, even the old entertainment radio :D

I have tried some kernel on stock ICS rom lately, then decided to stay on KRsH v3+ICS. Most stable and battery friendly, I think :)

Gonna test MESA kernel today...

If you enter into bootloader and post your information back from the screen, can help walk you through it! To enter bootloader, phone off, hold down the volume button and power the phone back on while continuing to hold down the volume down button, this will bring you into bootloader mode a tri colored sreen.

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdrc45:
Goldcard is one of the only methods of downgrading your spl from 5.xxx without having a backup. Goldcard, you need to make a Y cable out of USB cables and have a sd card reader to complete the process!

what i sent was after my full update to 7.5...

And you quoted as i requires gold card method...Now how you ae saying it does not require goldcard.... Cann you explain in brief please...
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdrc45:
Typically with a spl of 5.xxx or higher you would have to use the Goldcard method. But if you have a pre mango backup you can restore your phone through Zune, connect device to Zune - phone - settings - restore. It will restore your device to before the update, then re update the phone again through Zune like your upgrading to mango again. But this time once the Mango update happens (the phone will reboots twice after the update is applied, once for changing the spl and once for loading Mango) The spl is changed to 4.xxx that's when you stop the update and unplug the phone, you have to do this before the last update is applied which is the 7740/HTC Firmware Update, if you apply that too, it will change your spl to 5.xxx again, so you have to stop after the Mango update and then you can follow shadows tutorial for spl 4.xxx downgrade. Plus it will show you in the update box on the computer what update step it is on, so it's really easy to do! This is the same process that I used to downgrade my spl from 5.xxx to 4.xxx, then I finished using shadows tutorial to do the rest! The whole process took about and hour to fully complete and to have Deepshining rom installed on my device!

Why im not able to jail break my phone..When i run jail breaker, it say's phone is not connect through USB or Zune is not open..Though phone is cnnected through USB and Zune is open..

Im not getting anything like restore on zune..There is restore only for Media files..

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdrc45:
Make sure your phone is plugged into the computer when trying to get the restore point. Should be select, phone - settings - update (Zune should check for an update and say, no updates availabe) and then there should be a restore button towards the bottom of the update box. If it's not there then you must not have a pre mango backup for it and you will have to use the Goldcard method to do it which is pretty easy once you have the Y cable put together and a sd card reader! Here's a pretty detailed tutorial for the Goldcard method

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transmaniacon:
Hi,hope this is the right place to ask this. I bought this HD7 last week from Ebay and it's current specs are;

Software: Windows 7.5

OS: 7.10.8107.79

Bootloader: 5.11.XXX

Zune is saying there's an update available,haven't updated yet though.

So my question is,I want to install the Deepshining rom,do I do the following;

Flash the NoDo rom as listed in the Q&A section of the Deepshining thread,via bootloader,to downgrade SPL.

Flash RSPL via bootloader,then immediately flash Deepshining rom.

Is it that easy,or am I missing something (or everything !) Have flashed loads of roms on phones in the past with no bother,but this seems dodgy to me as I keep seeing the word 'brick' and that scares me a bit.

Thanks for any light you can shed on this.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdrc45:
Wish it was that easy...lol! Sounds like you understand for the most part, but with the bootloader of 5.xxx there are really only two options for being able to flash a custom rom.

1. A pre-Mango backup/restore point on your p/c. Which since you just got the device won't be a possibility for you.

2. The goldcard/Y cable method. Which is really easy and inexpensive! You can build you own cable or purchase one.

Check out Shadows tutorial, he explains the whole process and steps to flash a custom rom.

Right... It's a pretty easy process. If you make the Y cable, make sure it's not to long in length otherwise you'll have a problem with it transferring the data correctly and take a look at ruyzalim's tutorial, it gives you some good pics on how to connect the wires when making the cable:

[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transmaniacon:
Hi XDRC45,have just received my Y-cable from the States and have all the other bits and pieces needed too.

So I connect PC-phone-card reader as per instructions,with SCHUIMG.NBH (renamed from an o2-uk pre NoDo/NoDo shipped rom) on my SD card.

Then with phone in USB Loader mode it should go through the motions of installing shipped rom , giving me a new boot loader version of 1.19.2250.0(111297).

I only intend to do a one time custom rom flash,so do I just need to flash RSPL via boot loader mode,and not worry about HSPL ? But can do that anyway if necessary.

Is that OK so far?

One last thing,regarding custom rom, it says flash using Task29. Have used Task29 in the past for my HD2,but never like this. Can you give me a brief description on this procedure, ie: do I run Task29 and it gives me an option to choose a rom to flash etc etc?

Thanks for your help.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdrc45:
Yeah.. You got it down...that's the right process.

The only thing with RSPL, is that after you flash the custom rom it will go back to OSPL, and if an updated version of the rom comes out, which I'm sure it will...you have to re-RSPL your device again and then flash the updated version of the rom. If you decide you want to flash a different rom, again you have to re-RSPL the device and then flash the new rom.

With HSPL, you just put the device into bootloader mode and flash the updated rom version or a new rom and done. You can go back to OSPL from HSPL if that's what you're worried about.

That's up to you on what you want to do though.

Task 29 is a custom ruuwrapper for the HD7, you can use it if you want, but most of the roms come with a ruuwrapper in the zip file.

Just extract all the contents from the zip and click on and drag the .nbh file to the ruuwrapper.exe and drop it into it and the ruuwrapper will open, check the accept box, click next, it will take you to the next screen, check the accept box and next, then it will start the flash process.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transmaniacon:
Seems as I've fallen at the 1st hurdle,everything connected OK and phone seems to recognize the SCHUIMG.NBH up to a point.

Screen goes from "enter USB host....." then it says "loading.." ,but from here on in it just goes through this cycle.....

...loading-screen off-vibrate-tri colour screen-loading...and so on,left it like this for 2 or more minutes but the cycle just continued.

Have looked around the net for a possible solution,but can't find anything on it.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdrc45:
Yeah its suppose to do that, it will turn off and on a couple times (like 7 times) and vibrate, the whole flash can take up to 30 minutes.

Let it run through the flash process and finish and then afterwards the SPL should be downgraded.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transmaniacon:
Right,leave it in that cycle for 30 or so mins? I'd read in the downgrade post that it would boot about 6 times,and when I tried it went through that about 20 or more times,and that's when I pulled the plug.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdrc45:
Yeah let it run it's cycle, some flash in 10 mins, some take 30 mins. Just depends on the device. Once it's done, enter it into bootloader mode and and check to see if the SPL downgraded... It should, but if not we'll figure out what the problem is!
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdrc45:
How's the progress going?

Did it flash for you and downgrade the SPL?
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transmaniacon:
Hi,just had another go there now,left it for over an hour but still just the same. The loading-off-tri colour parts of the cycle only last a second or two,to me just doesn't look right. Would the fact I'm using a flash drive be an issue,my card reader is not working properly,so had to order a new one.

You have to have Windows Mobile Device Center installed on your PC to sync your device.

To transfer files via Bluetooth you need to install a Bluetooth file transfer XAP or a custom rom that features it.

Since your devices SPL is 1.18 you can install RSPL and HSPL and then flash a custom rom to it.

You will also need a 1gh to 4gb SD card (larger ones will work but need to be portioned) formatted to FAT32 and an SD card reader or you can use a flash drive. The card reader works better though.

Although numerous methods exist for various Android Phones/Tablets, because Kobo Vox is technically an eReader, I think it gets overlooked.

I have rooted my machine when running 2.3.3 but now it has force upgraded to 2.3.4, none of the processes seem to work (e.g. SuperOneClick, DoomLord).

The script errors refer to inability to write to various Tablet folders and hence updating fails; I wonder if the OS upgrade has somehow 'locked' folders in read only mode?

The bootloader installation process is the same as firmware installation using Odin. You can put the old bootloader tar file on either PDA or BOOTLOADER section.

Dont touch any other settings and a quick start and reboot, flash the corresponding rom and away you go :)
