[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] mrmenta:

for xPeria x10 Mini

ABOUT: I wanted a simple ROM with the speed and stability of the older phones, and the power of Android.

So I keep the basic phones functions like call, sms, camera, alarm, email, radio, etc; and deleted the rest.

I also changed the theme to make the ROM more simple and sophisticated.

After 23hs of work and near 80 ROM flashing I get this ROM I want to share with all you, beautiful people :p

EDIT/PERSONALIZE ROOM BEFORE INSTALL:

The ROM is a zip file archive. You can double click it and open it with WinRar and 7zip software.

Once inside, you can open text files and edit them, or you can add your own favourites apps to the "app" folder (recommended).

Also, you can insert your own ringtones and sounds on "media/audio" folder.

Replacing the default Keyboard BEFORE installing the ROM:

Open the zip with Winrar, go to "app" folder and delete "SuquashiInputMethod.apk".

Insert in the same folder you favourite keyboard (Swift, Go keyboard, etc).

FAQ and Important things:

There is no market, how can I install apps?

Easy Installer was included in the ROM to make installs from USB. You don't have Android Market (play).

What happened with Maps, GPS; Wifi, Blutooth?

Everything is working perfect. Maps has offline options, and Wifi is the new "n" standard.

I'm having a little problem with Root Explorer settings permisions. I can't see the accept button!

Exactly, the bottons are a little more bigger, and you can't choose them :silly:. You can make a workaround changing the LCD Density from default 120 to 110 or less, but you will broke the BackUp utility included with the ROM.

Can't change the ringtones!

The default music app was removed, so, until you install another music apps, you will only choose preinstalled ringtones.

What's about speed and stability of the ROM?

I'm a person who loves to write a SMS with a fast response phone. The ROM was tweaked for speed, but overclock, JIT, underclock and other things which can make the ROM unstable were NOT included. So, it's as stable (or more than) the stock Sony ROM.

Can I use parts of your ROM to make mine?

Of course! Do whatever you want if you thing you can improve it. You can add JIT, Overclock, Underclock... but, please, remember to put me on the credits of your ROM.
