maybe putting android will complicate things too much for you? remember some things will not work on android on x1 and camera will probably never work (as far as I know)

If you're ok with WM 6.5 then maybe try a good wm6.5 based ROM with htc sense like "826x" which considered the best among many.

have you done hardSPL on your X1 already ? if not go here:

Hi every one

Does anyone installed IceDroid v2 (NAND) ?

I just installed it but battery doesn't work correctly.

I downloaded it yesterday but I don't know it was with new boot.img (20.02)

or it was with previous one(15.02)

and another thing is that can I replace new one with old one without reinstall android ?

thanks
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoofoox:
It is not the latest one (no 20.02)

You don't have to reinstall.

You have to push the boot.img file via fastboot

it is described here (point: kernel)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahmoodifar:
Thanks

I mean "February 20th 2012"

sorry I didn't understand this part "Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder."

which driver ?

I don't have driver for this" CDC Abstract Control Model (ACM)" and I couldn't find it

could you help me

thanks again
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoofoox:
When you have download the fastboot files there is another folder with die drivers, you copy them inside this folder.

You must click browse under "device manager" then you can browse to the folder for the X1. When you have Win7 it should load it automatically (phone should be in fastboot mode)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahmoodifar:
OK

I thought I should do it on android

"-reboot in bootloader or turn phone on while keeping power pressed

-plug in usb

-put the boot.img in your fastboot folder

-type in cmd/terminal:

cd "path of boot.img or fastboot"

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot"

I find this post about it

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoofoox:
have you really set up a google account? Check it under Settings -> Account & Sync

Do you have installed Gapps?

Cou can add ringtones in this folder by copying your ringtone files in the flashable zip file in that folder so the ringtones will be flashed with the rom, or you can push them to your phone via adb
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahmoodifar:
" GAPPS had already included in this build, so no need to flash the zip separately"

there isn't Gapps file

yes I sync my google account because I need my contacts

could you tell me more about flashable and abd methods to add file in system or give me a link because I didn't find anything about that

Thanks
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neoofoox:
you have downloaded a zip file which you installed via CWM, you can extract that file on your pc and copy your ringtones in that folder, after that you can simply zip that file again and flash it via CWM.

How to get a ringtone without crashes on latest android ROM

Hi

I found a way to get an audible ringtone when using the gingerbread Android ROM without getting a crash when loosing calls:

1. Set ring tone to "Silent"

2. Install MorseRing (it costs about a dollar in the Market)

3. The phone now morses the caller name or number (If it isnt in the phone book)

If there is some other app that plays a ringtone when getting a call without using the default method those may work as well.

I hope this helps.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahmoodifar:

Thank you for your help, but I managed to solve the problem by doing a factory reset on the device.

Can't make/receive calls unless I wipe the cache

I have a Blu Quattro 4.5 (AKA K-Flex v9) and I can't make or get calls unless I reboot into recovery, wipe the cache partition and dalvik cache, then reboot again. Most of the time I can then make calls but after a short time the phone stops working, again.

When the phone isn't working and I try to make a call the phone program loads very slowly, tries to dial, there's no sound, and eventually the call gets ends or Android reports the process is not responding and asks me to wait or close it. Sometime people tell me they get a call from me but can't hear anything. I get the impression the phone isn't running fast enough to run the process/program.

I've had this problem while using Shendu 4.1, Miui 4.4 and Cyanagenmod 4.3. The phone worked great for months using Shendu 4.1 before the problem began a few weeks, ago. Nothing's changed in the hardware and I only switched roms after the issue began in hopes of finding a fix.

Any suggestions?

My thanks

In my opinion keeping up with technological race is not something worth pursuing. For now the specs on X1 are more than enough for pretty much anything you want to do with your phone. Not to mention that the x2 looks like s... :P

First thing would be to change your ROM. I don't know what you know or not about flashing but there are a few links on the Wiki page worth going over.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=443946

Why change your rom? Because the stock one sucks. It's resource hogging and slow. Most of the cooked ROMS out there have all the speed tweaks already implemented plus a lot of optimisations.

The tricky bit is choosing one ROM.

Now I prefer speed over anything so I mostly go with "lite" roms. gtrab (SEX1 roms - SEX1 as in Sony Ericsson X1...in case your dirty mind was thinking of smth else :rolleyes: ) has some really cool cooked roms, including a WM 6.5 one that I love.

You need to have Flash Lite 3.1 installed in order to have the growing panel working.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stormlv:
Hi, welcome to the forum.

Unfortunately SE won't be releasing WM6.5 updates to X1 (ASAIK).

On top of that, Microsoft hasn't even released an official final version of WM 6.5 so the only way to get it is thru cooked roms.

If you look closely you'll see that Microsoft is still working on it, as they still keep releasing different builds.

Anyway, don't be scared of using them (cooked roms in general). They're usually faster, better and cooler in general than normal stock roms. The chefs pretty much try to take the best from every official rom update, tweak and optimize it, then add content (or strip content if you take a lite/barebone rom). So in my opinion a cooked rom will be far superior to the official rom.

And if you're worried about the warranty you can reflash it to an original ROM / Hard SPL before sending it back in. ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=527535 )

I don't fully understand it but I guess if you are trying to remap the keys, then you will need to edit the registry in the following path:

Change the DWORD into 1033 for "English US" and leave BASE for DECIMAL.

Even if so could I just have Windows Mobile 6.5 on it with no panels.

Also does the camera work well in low light conditions?

Panels, I don't know about slow but they look nice. Never cared enough for slow or fast.

For camera, the LED light works only good on close-ups. If it's further than around 4 feet, it won't work that well.

WinMo 6.5 is not official, it's only built by the devs here. You can put the panels on it if you want. Most of the devs provide the panels as a separate add-ons for their roms.

Once you install Hard SPL , you can download any custom ROM and install it. It will always overide the existing ROM.

Stock ROMS generally override the radios and the SPL's as well so make sure that your ROM only has the OS in it just to be on the safe side
