Thanks a lot Jack!! Will update if I find any other issue(s).

Once again, thank you for the great job!! :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Tried it.... doesn't change anything?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] apprentice:
Themes

It seems that no themes work, I even tried the X1 Twist theme from the SE X1 downloads (which worked before) and it just reverted to the default windows theme.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] guru_fordy:
Bugger sorry. Thought you were missing the file. Bit of a problem for me though as I would want this too.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Sorry I should clarify, I have copied it over to /Windows and its selected in Today, however it's still the Blue theme :(
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nktpro:
I need the Black and Silver Xperia themes badly as well. Anyone?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] submarine:
So, are themes working in 1.03? I'm considering flashing it but i'd prefer to be able to change themes.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] dinan:
Thanks, but it seems it's a bit more grey than I remember it being...

Also, has anyone tested the camera app? It seems to be very unstable... I've had it freeze on "saving" after taking a pic many times. When it does take a picture and I finally exit the app, the screen brightness is locked on full like it forgets to turn the auto-dimmer back on??
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] guap:
I don't consider the net.cf issue a "minor" bug... It's CRUCIAL for many programs

so, I wait this issue to be solved ;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nktpro:
Theme doesn't work, waiting for the fix...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Net.cf is already fixed in 1.3!

1.4 is ready and will be post w/ theme change fix soon (along w/ lot more software pre-installed. Yes, it's not lite anymore. :) )
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mvp:
internet sharing lost in 1.0.3 version :-(

edit :

sorry ... is there (Comm manager)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
So the full is finally releasing??

Touch HD + Xperia apps 2gether? :D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] hkfriends:
hi there,

where can i get back the orginial "media files" like sonyericsson ringtone & those 007 demo trailer?

thanks
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nktpro:
Great! I'm desperately waiting for your release :D. Anyway the theme issue is the only one I found. Is that possible for you to create a .cab file to fix, instead I have to flash again and install / config everything :confused:

Anyway, thanks a lot for the great work. I want to donate to you, how should I do so then? ;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] guru_fordy:
So no panels? Good job I didn't rush in lol. How do we get them back as the ROM looks good for me bar the panels missing?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Thanks for the offer. The fixed image is post but the problem is trick and cannot easily fix w/ just add on cab. U can learn UC scripting and it could save you a lot of time for install and config.

hkfriends, those files are quite big in size and the easiest way for you would be install the official rom and save those before you install cooked rom.

guru_fordy, the panel cab is in post 2 if you want it back. Since panel MUST under "/program files", it would be a waste to have it inside the rom.

xmoo, I will include some but not all blackstone stuff depend how stable is it and the cost on performance.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nktpro:
Thanks a lot Jack! Donated to you a cup of beer :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nktpro:
Jacky just wanna ask if you intend to post a new ROM version with better optimization shortly? Or should I just go ahead and flash 1.04 then stay with it?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] guru_fordy:
Nice one Jack thanks for the answer!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] hkfriends:
ok, i manage to grep the media files and upload here

http://www.megaupload.com/cn/?d=UEGKBAQ0
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Thx for the beer. 1.04 is the last one for lite already had all the optimization I know of. Therefore, it will be the choice if you want a fastest and cleanest rom. The upcoming rom will based on 1.04 but adds lots of software on it. The software choice is based on my own usage and it may have softwares you may not need/want. But it save you a lot of time to install the software youself and greatly reduce the time if you do backup (since the files is in the rom and doesn't need to backup)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Jack,

Love your work!

One small request: Could you CAB up the HTC Task Manager(WVGA Version)? I Prefer it, and cant find a decent version anywhere!

Beer ($25 of) sent your way Sir!

UKTamo
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Thanks. I am drunk now.... Check post#2 for yr cab.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Jabe:
I question for all the people whose original X1 was not english. Does UMTS/HSDPA work? I can't seem to find a thread where there were some complaints about it not working when an english ROM (i don't know which one, I think generic) was installed.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
All yours :) Thanks for the CAB! Love this ROM... Exactly what I'm looking for.

Is v1.04 UC compatable?

Cheers

UKTamo
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
UC is there since 1.01. I just post my UC script example in post #2
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Fantastic :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] guru_fordy:
Hi Jack. Just flashed with 1.04 and damn it's fast so good job! Installed a load of programs but the PanelManager.exe seems to be missing. Any ideas?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
CABs in post 2....
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] hkfriends:
Bug: SD card Encryption - cannot disable (1.04 lite) :confused:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
Does the panels cab work?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Yup... Got it on mine.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
I think it will even work better than the orginal panels :P

Sometimes the panels hang (Currently on original rom)

Any bugs/huge problems found on latest release? It's 1:12am and i'm bored.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
None that I've found :) Pretty damn happy.... only thing was I had to change of Xperia Black theme then change back for it to be the proper theme...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
It's a bug in about 80% of the ROMs for the Xperia X1 atm. Does't make a difference, I can put my memory card straight into my Macbook Pro and it's read fine.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
Flashing 1.04 after talking with UKTamo about the rom.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] RyanNL:
x1 panel

after 1.04 flash the sony panel doesn't seem to show up in my panels.

other panels works fine. I like the x1 panel because i can have a lot of upcoming appointments, haven't found that noption in spb yet
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nktpro:
Flashed 1.04 and everything works perfectly as expected. :)

Themes now can change

Panels work flawlessly once installed from the provided cabs.

Youtube app works like a charm

Wireless, Bluetooth, HSDPA, GPS all work smoothly

Opera browser works

Camera no problem at all

However, one minor issue is for me there is no SE Panel like RyanNL mentioned above. I think another cab from Jack should do.

In short, for everyone who is looking for a clean, fast and stable ROM to install just what you need without any hassle, here is THE ONE.

@Jack: Just my personal thought: The lite version is your strength over all other ROMs here. Instead of going next to the full version, I think it's better to just improve the ROM to be as lite as possible, then work on separate cabs. That gives everyone all options to pick just what they want.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] guru_fordy:
I have all those cabs and installed then one's I wanted. However, I didn't install 'Jack Sony X1 PANEL.cab' which is the one I need too isn't it?!?!?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] dinan:
How do we make it so the battery icon comes up as one of the icons when you use the 'largetitlebar'?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Tis indeed :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] grayme:
I second the view, it seems the only way that you can please (nearly) everyone. :)

I'd have a go at flashing this, if only I could dump my O2 UK existing ROM... :confused:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
grayme, There are guides on how to dump your rom floating about...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] grayme:
Thanks, I've read them, but they don't seem to work. :(
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
Clock & Alarms -> More -> Disable "Display the clock on the title bar in all programs".
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] dinan:
that was the first thing i tried... doesn't work =(

the only icons i get are the connectivity "E" for edge, the bars for reception, and the volume
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] RyanNL:
x1 panel

reflashed with 1.04 and re-dowloaded the panels.zip file to doublecheck: the cab gives a succeful install message as before but the issue is still the same: no SE panel.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
That's because it's not in the Panels.rar Jack has uploaded :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
You have to download the panel from the Panel Manager Rayen......

That's weird. Have you tried soft resetting or re-installing the app.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
The SE panel is in the "Jack Sony 3DFish panel.cab" I attached. Did you really check?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] romeo0119:
Jack how about putting blackstone keyboard into rom 1.05, I think the x1 on screen keyboard is useless
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nktpro:
Ok guys the "Jack Sony 3DFish panel.cab" contains 3 panels, 2 SE Panels plus Fish one. I didn't try because of the file name. I thought it's just the fish panel and it's pretty useless.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Yup, same here ... Got an issue with the XperiaMedia Panel though ... just doesnt play ball :(
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
What issue w/ media panel?

edit: I will re-upload the rar w/ better name then.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] grayme:
Has anyone on here managed to dump their own existing ROM?

My experience is as here :o.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Er ... I select a song to play the control buttons show up, go away to blank screen, come back and then goes to and stays at just blue background (or orange depends on the time of day...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] stuartforrest:
does it have the customisation for vodafone in the UK so you dont have to enter all the settings manually? Is 1.05 ready to go as it says "preview"
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Yes it does :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] stuartforrest:
Mine does that blue screen thing on the media panel. I factory reset my phone and it still does it. I have now removed that panel. That is nothing to do with upgraded roms because I haven't yet.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Jack,

Fancy repackaging MediaPanel for us?

Thanks

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] stuartforrest:
The process of rom updating keeps failing for me and I get a communication error on the PC updater with error number 284.

I have tried installing 1.04 and 1.05.

The phone does restart with the multi coloured screen and on 1.05 it even gets to 0% of the grey rom upgrade sceen I have seen previously on other phones when you are doing a rom upgrade.

Has anyone any ideas what I may be doing wrong.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
I can't reproduce it here. I had installed just:

1. Jack Sony X1 Panel

2. Jack Sony Fish Panel (and along w/ SE panel as well)

3. SE MediaXperiaPanel

What about yr config and what step exactly to reproduce it?

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] UKTamo:
Apologies for double post, but they're two separate issues.

Er, *shrugs* I dunno maybe I'm missing something, either way... the CAB in the thread I linked works for me ...

Still an awesome ROM jack :) Only thing I'd love more is for maybe the Audio Manager from Blackstone to work ... I can't seem to get it to work :(

Can you?

Thanks Mucho :)

UKTamo
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Yes on my current developing version. It works w/ TF3D.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
+ audio booster :P

So when is the new rom releasing??
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] grayme:
In the past one other devices I have had to keep the location of the flashing in a simple location without any spaces, e.g. c:\X1 rather than C:\Documents and settings\User.... etc.

Could that be an issue here?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
I don't think so. I have a very complicated path w/o problem (C:\Documents and Settings\<user Name>\x1\Rom\RUU_Kovsky\BaseRom). Why don't you just use SD method?

xmoo, audio booster is in even it's useless for me (I use A2DP 99% of the time). Most things are working and I just need to finish Chinese support here. Surprisingly, performance hit is not that bad w/ TF3D within the rom.

And probably will be release within today.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] dinan:
Anyone having trouble with e-mail? I have my gmail account setup and it only seems to check for email when I use the phone. I set it to check every 5 mins, 10, 15, etc. and it will just go for hours without checking until I start using the phone. I remember it used to check quite often while it was asleep before I flashed.

Anyone else notice something similar? Using 1.04 btw
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Buttonfreak:
Hello all. I am new to flashing devices so I would like to check if I get it before I start. I have read the faqs and guides from the Kaiser to learn about roms, SPL etc. Still I am not totally sure if I understood it all right.

- First I have to do the HardSPL

- Then flash for example this rom using the microSD method

- Finish!

If this is the correct way, I still have one question regarding the radio. Is it correct that the radio is untouched when doing the hardSPL and flashing the rom? Or do I also have to flash the radio?

Thanks for your help! :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] stuartforrest:
Using the pc based upgrade didnt work for me but the SD card based method worked just fine. I have put 1.04 on but is 1.05 ready to go as it is called a "preview". I am confused about that?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] suv67:
Hello all. I am new to flashing devices from GE to UK rom (i.e. I had HardSPL one time). Still I am not totally sure in case having rom 1.05 Or do I also have to flash the radio?, i I have to do the HardSPL one more ?

Thanks for your help!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nusul:
Very good work! Without the X panel! (i have launch it one time in 3weeks, and only the first day :) )

peharps a silly question, but, how to remove some apps that you have add in this ROM ?

Hi! Im new to all this pocketpc stuff.. I just got my X1 a week ago and its from Vodafone UK even tho its not branded (locked) this firmware (software) is buggy as in u can access ur email or MSN via wi-fi only using gprs/3g wich is pretty anoying.. I was looking forward to flash it with an unbranded rom but I do not owe a MicroSD card.. is there any other way of flashing it without the MicroSD card? if so can someone plz guide me with a nice tutorial/guide? :)

Regards,

n0brega
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
The quick answer is you can't because they are burn into the rom. Just delete the shortcut and pretend they are not there then. :D Don't worry, most program I pick wouldn't cost any speed (except TF3d). The only upfront cost is just storage (man, you still get 3XXmb from my rom compare to 1xx to stock)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
That's correct. This rom is OS only and your radio firmware will be untouch.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] n0brega:
jack is is possible to flash ur ROM without having and MicroSD card?

Regards,

n0brega
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Yes w/ the RUUupdate package (search around for that). And that's what I am using all the time (except recovery from bad flash). Can you imagine how we cook perfrom that since we flash the x1 so many times? :o
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] n0brega:
lol ty for the quick awnser! yeh I guess Im realy new to PDA flashing.. but I've flashed some older phones.. it all started when I 1st flashed my nokia 3310 xD then It was the SE k750 followed by my k800.. but since X1 is my 1st pda phone and Im all new to this I guess im gonna have to start reading a bit to catch up with whats going on around here :)

Once again thanks for the quick reply im gonna try and flash it now... Hope everything goes well xD

Now that I see 1.05 has ramdisk feature, and the size is 16MB, can we change it to a bigger size like 32MB Jack? I heavily surf on my X1 and the more the better :D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ianl8888:
@jackleung

Thank you greatly for the clean ROM - much appreciated, great respect

I'm expecting my X1 in a few weeks - after making sure everything works "out of the box", I'll hardSPL the thing and flash your base ROM

Then add what I want

All of that works - then donation time :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
Thanks in advance. :)

n0brega, the gap is for recent program history.

I will provide registry settings/shortcuts to enable/disable/adjust blackstone and ramdisk feature later.

Edit: In post #4 now.

I am installing 1.05 now. I presume it has that extra menu that pops up in TF3d when you click on icons on the task bar. I cant stand that. Do you know if that can be disabled in any way as the rest of it is greaeeeeeeet!

hi jack

have you got a chinese rom by any chance?

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] romeo0119:
Jack I think its great that you cook all the manila cab into the rom, touchflo3d how ever u should have leave it out reason being that its still being develop and the newer version is releasing soon that maybe better and more stable, users can install it as a seperate cab if they choose to. That is just what I think, thanks for the new rom.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] stuartforrest:
I agree. I would prefer this rom without TF3D because I cant stand it. I have removed it from the home screen but hate the fact it is there still :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
The Calendar addon caused that. Disable it (see #4) and TF3D will became very stable now.

For others who wants to disable/adjust the blackstone features. Please check #4 first.

For Chinese support, it will be my lower priority since I encounter some issues in cooking CE-Star into the rom an it may not be cost effective to fix this at the moment. (But installation of CE-Star over my rom works perfectly so far)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gohyc:
For those that does not want the annoying message about missing PanelManager.exe when you press the X Panel button, unzip the attached zip file (with the folder) into "\Program Files" folder. From there, you can map the X Panel button with AEBPlus to any action(s) you prefer.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gohyc:
I use TouchPal soft input for both English and Chinese, and it works great. You may wanna consider cooking this into the ROM, or leave out of ROM for users to install their preferred SIP for Chinese input.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] wipal001:
What was wrong in the V1.02, what did that the themes not working? I'm wondering because i have the same problem, only the standard theme work :confused:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
wow, thanks for detailed review. I also agree that people that prefer fastest and cleanest rom should go for 1.04 "Lite". As I said before, from 1.05 and on will be "full" rom w/ stuffs that you may like or don't like but I would try to only include stuff that is:

1. Would not affect speed and stability (TF3D is the only exception since it's performance hit is not that big after all, and speed gain by putting it inside the rom instead of installing it later is VERY NOTICEABLE)

2. Programs that will works under /Windows directly instead of making duplicate copies like the stock rom does.

3. Programs that does not require (or do not need) update very often.

To answer yr question:

1. Yes, my rom is highly tweaked and so do the TF3D in order to gain this speed. Too many tweaks that I am not sure how many of them contribut to the speed gain on TF3D in my rom. :D

This is caused by the non-standard hard code path in X1's camera application. It append "camera\xperia" to both picture and video paths under "My Document". Therefore, TF3D's ablum can only display either one of them by pointing to the right path.

I only use Coreplay and that's why I missed this one. Did you found any TF3D/Audio Manager working w/ AVRCP and standby mode(pointer pls)?

I just use the default X1(or blackstone) setting. The sensitivity probably comes from the speed and repondsiveness of the rom.

But sadly, this Widget caused a lot of crash in TF3D and I have to let it go. Perhaps msg to the developers and wish it will become stablize later.

As I said before, you can't. Just remove the link in start-menu and pretend they are not there. :) (man, why do you care since you already got 3XX mb space from my rom. :P)

I removed it since it's pretty useless IMHO. If you are good in registry settings, it's just a dll w/ some registry setting to get it back

Will look into those

Can you PM me yr reg code and let me try? Mine works fine but the way I register is use UC to copy the XML file w/ register code to "/Application Data/Coreplayer" instead of enter it manually. U can look at my UC script example in post #2

I will provide registry to disable T9 in to get word suggestion back. And I will look into Touchpal as well (can you provide pointer?)

It does complaint but work after soft-reset(except unload). For the moment, we can adjust the size by registry suggested in post#4.
