Hi,

could you check the - X1_Panel_MXP_MR2_R27_35200_signed - file, can not be installed, no matter what. Could be because if you try to open it on the PC you get the error message:

-...is corrupt...

"the Windows CE Data file is corrupt."

thank you

New Media panel....should I?

kinda scary with all the problems being stated regarding installing the new media panel....am wondering whether I should go for it or not? I want to make sure there is a way to get the original back in working order. Am currently on the R2A ROM
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] yodafone:
I'll double confirm this; the media panel file in the first post seems to be corrupt.

As RMNZR kindly posted earlier, try this instead:

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
All went OK for me until I instlled the MXP panel,

It is certainly giving too much problems

Checked against this other one and size is different

I'll take the link down for the corrupted one and will replace it for the reportedly correct one

Thanks for all the feedback

For Salamander

You only need to install "X1 panel Xperia 1".. it's the last panel manager, Look on the first page.

R3A panel manager no work for me too..
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
I'm trying but I'm overwhelmed with work right now ... working from 10pm to 3am is no joke ....
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] dick_pomper:
Does anybody have a fix for the task manager button dissapearing in the right top corner with the new panel manager?? If you press the X you can see it just before it switches to the panel manager, however during normal operation it does not work or show.

Anybody??

Thanks

You should ask for assistance at the TouchFlo 3D's thread, I think this has been discussed there before

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] exrazorfish:
I installed the new XperiaCamera and PanelManager said to be from the (soon, hopefully) upcoming R3A, including ActiveX deployment. I got them working after some tweaking related to having a non-English stock ROM (R2A). So I now have the auto flash and geotag working with the camera and I also have the new panel manager working. Very nice.

I cannot, however, get the Growing and CNN panels working. They install nicely (tried both on the unit and on memory card), but they simply do not show up in the (new) panel manager. The other new panels, on-the-road, Skype and the new media xperience, work like a charm.

What could be wrong? The language of my ROM?

ROM: R2A

Language: Swedish (041d)

3rd pty apps: Plenty...

Xperia Panel Tweak: Installed but disabled

SDK certs: Not tried
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Amnesia180:
Would you recomend installing all these panels as CAB, or to try flashing the ROM like some of you have?

If I install these panels now, when SE officially release the R3A, will it conflict/mess up my device?
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
when R3A is released, you have to wipe out your device anyway.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Amnesia180:
So does this mean my Storage Card will also be wiped?

I'll have to make a backup of all my programs/apps then. Do I need to deactivate my SatNav software and reactive/reinstall once the update has happened?
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] zenkinz:
no only your phone storage .. your SD card remains intact.

after a ROM upgrade, you need to reinstall your apps again. You may backup your software and restore, but I would usually not recommend that because you may be restoring a outdated files, unless you are restoring non-system files.

how to install new PanelManager on German ROM

installed it , had several probs because it creates new folder named Program Files instead of installing into my German Path (Programme) just copied all the files into the german programfolder, and it runs properly.

Still have Problems to run TF3DHDB2 in Panel Mode. Panel won't start. All the other Panels work correct.... is their a work around.

i would use TF3D as TodayScreen, but i need to run Spb Diary and PhoneAlarm

on the today screen. So i either have to provide a second Today Screen, or Panel for either one.

help me anyone please?

Wrong thread...sorry gtrab

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] exrazorfish:
Since the .CAB files are for a non-Swedish ROM they install to the root folder "Progam Files" while a Swedish ROM will execute program files from the root folder "Progam". The installation of the R3A versions of XperiaCamera and PanelManager must therefore be moved to "Program", making sure they replace all files there. In addition, the XperiaCamera needs to have the file name of the language file (in the "Language" folder) renamed just as was the case for the YouTube panel (from *0401*.dll to *041d*.dll for Swedish). This rename only makes the R3A XperiaCamera app work under the Swedish ROM - the UI is still in English (the pictures you take from now on will end up in the folder structure "Camera" rather than "Kamera", etc.)

I had no problems installing the Active X deployment. Atleast not any that I am aware of...

That panel comes from Sony Ericsson, not from xda-devs :rolleyes:

Hi gtrab i must say now all the panels install fine thanks...

but the only problem is that i am experienced lots of freezee, and i have to reset the phone...Maybe why need the new video or graphics drivers as you said before....

Anyway thanks for the panels and the research...

I have LAM Official S.E ROM...
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
Sorry I can not help to test out your issues because I don't use TF3D

I am experimenting over stock english ROMs for the time being, and everything, even the new MXP panel, seem OK on two phones (NAM and UK ROM)

@fulgore69: Your problems may be related to the non-english ROM

May I suggest you to do some tests by installing the new "Xtrack" game (which comes with the new R3A ROM and I suspect instaled the new drivers ino my phones because all the new panels are running very well here)

I will post a video: you won't believe the level of speed and stability, how smooth and fast this new Panel Manager is

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Amnesia180:
I am having some problems.

I've downloaded and installed the following today; R3A Panel Manager, ActiveX Deployment, On The Road, Growing Panel and Media XPerience Panel.

However, when I click the Panel button, nothing happens... the bar across the bottom that has Calendar and SPB on it just flashes, then nothing happens.

Any ideas?

Edit: The device is now extremly slow, and the keypad/buttons do not work.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] dick_pomper:
Did you:

First install ActiveX, soft-reset?

Then install R3A Panel Manager, soft reset?

Then install Panels?

It should work if you keep this sequence (it did for me).

Hope this helps.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] XpErIaX1-IdOu:

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Amnesia180:

[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] MrCroW1:
after installation everything work good, but in every panel ex. today a small icon in right corner (task mng) is missing. Is that bug of...? i.m using it to switch the opened appz, maybe is another way to change an appllication. i've got this phone about 2weeks.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] gtrab:
.

ATTENTION:

I think some of the problems reported are not related to the new panel manager itself but to third party apps (SPB ??) and ROM language (ENGLISH ONLY ??)

The new panel manager has been downloaded tons of times,

I understand only users experiencing problems wil come back to post (for solutions, of course. If it worked fine most users won't come back to post), but that's a small proportion compared to all the downloads

I'd suggest to stick to the old panel manager unless you have UK or NAM ROM, which are the ones I tested

In the mean time, I will also try it over spanish and german ROMs to see if I get the same results

:)

thank that one is working...

but now i am having the same problem with the active x thing...

any ideas?
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Amnesia180:
Thank you for the feedback. I will try removing SPB and other third-party software (that I can easily add back if I need to).

I dont know if it will change anything, but I installed in the order you say, but I installed the SDKCERT cab first: ftp://x1:x1@spikedsoftware.co.uk/XperiaX1/APPS/sdkcerts.cab

Everything works just fine on my X1 Norvegian R2A
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] brochs:
I have R2A008 NO ROM, was not fresh after Hard Reset, I hav several programs on it, NO tweaks! I installed SDKCERT (reboot) AxtiveX (reboot) new Panel Manger (reboot), I then installed New Media Panel, Growing Panel, and On The Road Panel, after that I installed New Camera CAB. Working great here!

My only problems are: I cant find Growing Panel when I try to add it to Panel Manager, I see it installed under /program~/panels/ but I can't add it to Panel manager. Anyone had this problem?

I also would realy like to set my TomTom 7 as navigation option in On The Road, is this possible at all, or is the only possibility here Google Maps?
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] eduong503:
Just to give my input...

I am using the silver x1a after hard reset.

Installed sdkcerts first, then Active deployment, soft reset, new panel manager, soft reset, installed CNN, but was unable to install new media xperience (before the update). The CNN panel worked fine.

Anyways, i am using the old panel manager since I had problems with the new panel manager. I was unable to get the panel manager to load and when if it did load, it required me pressing the X button many times...I was also missing the task manager icon on the top right. After a while, the panel manager stopped working and could not get it to load. I hardreset my device 3 times trying to get this to work.
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Trakkiggio:
i have the same problem... growing panel is not avaiable in panel list... i think that growing panel doesn't work
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] madxtreme:
you got to do a registry entry :) you have to change the folder destination into program(of course in your Rom called folder for programms :) )

or you create the folder program files and put the hole growing panel folder into it :)

but i couldnt do it succesful :((the folder trick...)
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Trakkiggio:
id doesn't work... the folder "panels" (strangely an english word into a italian system rom) is a subfolder of italian folder "Programmi" and it contains all other panels ( and growing panel too)... creating a different root with "program files->panels->growing panel" nothing has changed... the growing panel still to miss in panels list
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Fulgore69:
Yeah i install xtrakt game and it seen to do something because now it takes longer to install R3 panel manager, and now it work very good

But i must say it consumes more resourches like 35% in the first panel.

And in the R2 panel manager the first panel consumes only 26%..

But some nice improvement in R3 panel manager is you can listen to music with Media panel and change the panel and still listen to music....

And thats is so great..!!!!!!!

I think i will stay with the old panels...Because i have seen many improvements in the R2A Media panels...Like not getting hot when listen to music like in the R1.....

Well thanks again for these updates...Maybe it will work much better i am sure when it comes with the full rom....Drivers and other stuffs...
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] sonoftheboss:
For those who can´t see Growing Panel in Panel Manager

You have to edit the Registry

HKLM/Software/SonyEricsson/PanelManager/Panels/GrowingPanel

of course after having installed the Panel!!

and then change all the Paths of

MMI_DLL,

SWF_FILE,

LargeLandscape,

Landscape,

LargePortrait,

Portrait, and

DLL

which is by default "Program Files" (even if its installed correctly into your Programfolder) into the correct Programfolder of your device!

Thats it!

i did it and it works fine with my German ROM

by the way, i think I Don't like this panel anyway.

Anybody got the fix of the Problem with TF3D Panel that hangs with the new Panel Manager??? is their anybody working on this?

SotB :cool:
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] madxtreme:
only to copy the folder growing panel into program files is not everything :) there are some other files and folders to copy^^ for example the Flash Panels folder

you have to got following things in Program Files:

Program Files/Panels/Growing Panel/

Program Files/Flash Panels/FlashPanel(dont know the ending)

i did the registry tweak an it works^^ is a very nice panel :) the way like sonoftheboss :)

youve got the same problem as me geo

here is my solution to your x1

instal activeX and R3A panel manager

when you reboot X1 it will show you error, until here am i right??

its error but you can still access Setting by tapping the left bottom corner on your screen

then you need to uninstall something from your X1

example: uninstall Xtrakt

reboot then

your X1 is back as normal

instal Xtrakt again and play :)

The new Panel Manager is great, but I miss the buttons for "settings" and "change view".

Did sombody noticed that the pictures for the panels are smaller?I think it looked better in the old panel manager.Eespecially the fan looked much better in the old version.

A nother thing is that the new panel manager often crashs. The only thing you can do after the crash is putting out the battery, because the phone doesn't react anymore. I hope this problems will be solved in the finally version.

I should have been more specific then:

As I've stated before:

WORKING FINE OVER UK AND NAM ORIGINAL STOCK ROMS

Please understand:

Sorry to dissappoint you

I can not test and adapt it for EVERY cooked ROM or EVERY language !!

I made my better effort to bring the new Xperia camera to all of you, many days of hard work, trial and error, hard resets, test... and I finally managed to do it for UK and NAM ROMs, but most people post only to complaint about "not being able to use it on other ROMs" :confused::confused:

I don't even ask for donations

And it DOES work fine for those ROMs

May I better stop posting/sharing my crazy ideas and CABs ??

No more ports/CABs maybe...

Impossible to please everybody

After all, all the required info is HERE (xda-devs)

I learned here, patiently searching and reading, trying and testing

Everybody should better DIY

:(
[XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps] Fulgore69:
Gtrab thanks for all your help....

I must say the new panwls work in all roms...The problem is that in other languages roms we have to edit the registry...Because the keys said that the panels is install in program files, And in spanish for example it is "archivos de programa", So just rename the key values and save them...

And it would work 100% all panels working....

But i am a little dessapointet with the media experiencie panel....So you see when you are watching a video and then stop it and go back to menu the screen does appear for a moment middle black....So maybe need new graphics drivers....

But the panel manager of R3 is really fast...

So thanks again nice research and keep doing it so well....

Hope you can someday release a full rom....I read somewhere you where trying to cook....Hope it has Spanish support to:D:D
