PLEASE HELP ME WITH MORE INFO !!!

(I am a hacker, not a clairvoyant :D :p)

1- which ROM are you using ??

SEX1 1a or W4X.23 ??

(check your start->settings->deviece info)

2- The first (model-name error) SEX1 customization pack or the fixed one (version 2) ??

(check start->settings->deviece info->identity Tab, says X1a or SEX1 ??)

3- Did you use a third-party PIM backup or BACKUP app ???

Was that app TESTED for WM6.5 compatibility ??
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] brolly760:
it says SEX1. just flashed it and then hard reset it like i always do. i can only use mass storage though. thanx for your time
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
I think I have figured out what your problem is:

As the device is recognized as "SEX1" and not "X1a" or "X1i", you are not able to sync

A clever solution would be to upgrade to the new W4X.23 ROM

But before re-flashing, you can try a simple trick:

There's a file in /windows/ called "modelname.txt"

If you can overwrite that file (resco explorer, ttal commander, etc) then change the model name from "SEX1" to "X1i" or "X1a"

Keep me posted

.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] brolly760:
changed the device name but i still get this error on the fone; ''cannot open the connection'`57600 default'. This connection is no longer valid or does not exist. select a different connectionand try again''. :-( really dont know what to do and if i cant get it to recognize my fone then i cant flash roms. pls pls pls help!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] brolly760:
it works now! thanx!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
was gonna suggest that you go into settings and then connections and into usb to pc. see if activesync is selected as it sounds like you had disk drive selected as that would explain why mass storage option comes up! doesn't matter what name phone is called to sync at all! would you mind sharing how you got it working?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
@shingers5 and all of you:

That's the reason I made a fast release to replace this ROM

As you may remember, this ROM was my PERSONAL ROM, severely customized to my own tastes and needs, and the personalized "modelname.txt" was going to generate thousands of troubles to other people

W4X is more pure, more suitable for "public" use

matter of choices
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
chill gtrab chill. we know but the rom is still very stable and IMHO better than new release! this rom works and has less issues. cause it was your personal rom meant that you had time to tweak and customise it to get it right. thats why it was so good and has such little issues. i never had sync issue with this rom and i use vista and wmdc 6.1.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] brolly760:
oh i just did what gtrab said about replacing the modelname.txt file. restarted the fone and my laptop and it worked. best rom i've used so far!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
glad to hear that

hope you enjoy this ROM as much as I do
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gallous_boy:
there no ppm in the rom, unless im mistaken, is there a cab i can download
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] MSiccDev:
Hello,

this might be a really stupid question but how is the chance to get this rom in other languages (e.g.german and italian)?

for translations i would be able to help...

greets

papa marco
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
up to date, cookers only have access to english from MS and chinese from HTC...

I guess translations will appear after the official release
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] brolly760:
sorry to bother but anytime i press the volume keys in a program it closes even windows media player. help
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] :
Would it be possible one time to run different Programms on the same Time in Windows Mobile 6.5 and above.

I want listening to music (media player) while writing something in a apllication like

the Kalendar.

Every time the Windows Media Player plays songs and i try to open the Kalendar or the Kontacts the Media Player stops to play music.

Unbelieveble !

Does Windows Mobile support Multitasting ?

If yes are the Programms the Problem.

Would be "VLC Mobile Media Player" be a solution for this Problem ?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
I have never experienced this on the SEX1 ROM, but I guess this is because of the HTC concurrence manager

Concurrence files were replaced in the new ROM release W4X.23

It is available here in this subforum

Help

Hi, i am new in here. Can you help me to change my X1 from german to english?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] eskimo!:
Hey,

First of all, thanks for your work, it seems to run really great.

However, I do have a small problem, concerning the dialer:

Whenever I go to the dialer, hide the keybad, and then scroll all the contacts sort of go runny.

I know that sounds weird, so here's a screenshot: View attachment 188063

This may not even be a problem with the rom, but does anybody know a solution? Thanks!wr
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] darkriderz:
Seems like a very nice ROM from my readings of this tread..... Want to give it a try!!!! Can users of this ROM tell me if it's nice... and better than TF3D... Thank you...;)

Every time I see an old thread resurrected, somehow "Live after death" comes to my mind :D ("scream for me Long beach !!")

@ mowablaze:

This ROM has been improved and updated

Many weeks of hard work had leaded to the release of SEX1 R3

BAD TO THE BONE

Itje and Kid_DC are NOT USING WM6.5 TASKBAR ICONS but icons from WM6.1+HTC stuff (FInixOver batt icons

I AM INDEED USING WM6.5 icons

If you want "that" kind of signal/speaker icons (the old WM6.1+HTC ones) but with 10% battery increments then you can search the apps and themes subforum and download my SEX1 battery enhancer

I WILL UPLOAD SOME SCREEN CAPS SO YOU CAN COMPARE THE NEW ICONS WITH THE OLD ONES (Itje and Kid_DC ones)

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
wm7 - titanium project. everything works. is there a way to make the sliders smaller in size? not the best on reg stuff. smabergs action screen is a must have i think. hold power down for few secs and this shorcut menu of 15 icons comes up. lovely work that mate.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
nope its auto. tmob where? if uk will be user/one2one. dont know bout anywhere else. check connections and see what it has when you edit your current connection

Tmobile is not auto-customize-supported by WinMo 6.5 yet

Other user successfully configured it manually and worked

See post 26, page 3

@Shingers5:

Thanks for pointing out

I WILL ADD A LIST OF MY INCLUDED REG TRICKS TO FIRST POST TOO

This is what I reg-tweaked in my ROM:

I changed the scrollbars (slidebars)f rom 13 to 15 (reg trick)

I DISABLED word suggestion, SMS notification pop up, wake on SMS, auto adjust backlight, power off timeouts and SIP auto-deploy (I have a hardware keyboard !! I don't need the tiny silly WinMo keyboard !!)

I also ENABLED big keys for the SIP in Opera (at least... since we can't get rid of the SIP auto-pop-up in Opera; not windows registry dependant)

More reg tricks: I ENABLED Vibrate and ring, Microphone AGC, Screen taps soft sound, Touch Scroll sound feedback, etc etc

Here is a CAB for you, to get the sliders back to their stock size (13 pts)

Less than 1 kb, no residuals, will just change your slidebar REG back to stock

You can
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] bknewtype:
thanks, yea i just had to redo it manualy, but all goods :]

excellent rom, one last question, i cant seem to see anythingin for my sound notification drop down menu, like i dont see any midis for it, except for ring tones..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
I streamlined the sounds to my personal preferences, leaving only the "good ones" (IMHO)

MIDIs are sooo out for mee, I think I deleted them all :D Sorry

Which one do you want ??

I can get it for you and jut copy it to windows/rings

also, youtube panel is not working for me, and the youtube program itself keeps giving me the error " cannot play this video". this isnt the only time i had the problem, so i dont htink its specific to your rom, i had it in the touch 6.5 rc1 also.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Xkan:
Youtube app works excellent, it didn't work in TouchIT 6.5 and the ROM is very very nice, and fast, now I'm flashing a new Radio and than I'll have something like a new X1 :)

youtube working spot on for me dude so try reinstalling the program. use youtube he specified as that one i am using......... looks great on x1 screen. its not the rom dread its you on this occassion. my youtube is quick and smooth! couldn't get it working initially so hard reset ans started again. there is a reg and file patch that should get it working but i didnt need them. try them if not work you may need to start again. did you hard rest after flashing rom?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
flashing back radio 1.14.25.55 as flashed 1.11.25.76 and not working fine at all. signal strength reduced considerably.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Xkan:
I have to check what's the problem with Youtube, I had it working, but then I installed some apps and then it didn't work, and I tried to reinstall it but now I get an Error...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
same here dude. had it but it didnt work so removed and tried to install but no joy. hard reset and tried again and worked fine. no probs since. try the patches before you hard reset as may do the trick. i had to hard rest and now all is well. there are other youtube apps like google youtube and youtubeplay. both work well
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Xkan:
OK, I'll try to figure out what program is the problem, so maybe I can avoid a hard reset...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] bknewtype:
going to try to install the patch now, thanks for the file. but yes i did use the specific youtube program and panel specified by gtrab
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
also found a standalone bbc iplayer app that works well using core player or tcmp player. you right that youtube app is moody....... just trying to tweak it now!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Barguast:
n00b question:

How do I get this on my phone? I've been following this thread, but I don't see how it applies to the files posted here.

I got as far as updating with HardSPL, but how do I use the files posted here with NBHUtil? Or am I just going about this all wrong? :p
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
when you try to reinstall it - it gives you permission errors. think gtrab needs to help with this one as youtube is defo moody. google youtube and youtubeplay work well but the htc youtube app doesn't!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] bknewtype:
youtube

okay, the youtube panel still doesnt work...it launches windows media and gives me an error, same for the app, i can search videos and such, but get the cannot play this video...ah well..dont want to hard reset again since it usually takes me about a good 2 hours to get everything up and running again... :( lol ill have to live without youtube for now..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
you need the flash utils and then copy or drag .nbh fille into folder. click rom update utility and voila. thats if you flashing from pc. SD card method is different. that way you need to copy .nbh file to root directory of your sd card. hold down vol down and power button till you see tricolour screen. it should prompt from there what you need to do. there are guides here

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Barguast:
Thanks, I had searched, read that topic, and have the tools, etc. But... what NBH file? The RAR in the first post has an OEM folder, with no NBH files. Do I have to create this myself with NCBUtil? If so, how? Again, the stickied topic doesn't help me much. :(

Sorry if I'm de-railing the topic a little. I just wouldn't mind trying this out. :)

NBH file is the ROM that you are flashing. download the x1 flashing utilities in the thread that has EVERYTHING you need to flash a ROM. from there, put the NBH file in the folder and run the utility.

All the download links are dead, except Megaupload, but this contains OEM, not nbh.

I also wanted to test. Please, reupload.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shingers5:
go to first page and download his rom. he has already created .nbh file. you need to extract using winrar and copy to ruu tools folder

dont have file on my laptop either. flashed from pc at home
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Barguast:

Did I just download the wrong one? Should I have downloaded from one of the other (currently dead) links?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] montana:
I wouldnt mind getting the standard ringtones either :)

I understand that you left them out of the ROM, but would appreciate if you could just zip them into a file here on the forum. I came from itje´s ROM which had really nice tones for sms etc, but think that yours is better to be honest. Just miss those tunes ;)

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] cursor:
if you're composing a text you shouldn't be able to add a picture to it... just copy the text and compose a new mms.

first small bug...

is it possible to change "device type" from SEX1 to X1i (or the xperia default value?)

just saying it because with the way it is we can use the Skype 4 Xperia Panel/Soft that supports the earpiece... gives an error when launching :_
