Developers commented earlier that SE's APIs aren't released so unless someone with a lot of time and knowledge comes along then I doubt we'll see more improvements. I'm dying to have Vignette to get controls for the contrast. It takes better pictures but sometimes I need to switch to the native camera app given the circumstances. At least there are marked improvements from 1.6 to 2.1 but it leaves much to be desired.

Best camera I've ever used on a smart phone was on the Nokia N95. Dear Lord that camera took some fantastic pictures if you knew how to use it. Even if you were an idiot and just pointed and clicked it still did a fantastic job. X10 can take some gorgeous shots if you have the proper conditions but it does very poorly indoor which is where I take 95% of my pics. I've felt naked since I had the X10 because I can't take any pictures as easily.

(thankfully the wife has a DSLR she lugs around virtually everywhere... she's Asian and fresh off the boat so taking pictures of everything is mandatory lol)

Using Kexec

Is this using the new kexec-tools that is in the 2.1 firmware??

If so can you explain how you partioned your sdcard please please please. I am trying to load meego onto the x10 as a 2nd option but I am stuck at how to partition the sdcard and launch the new kernel.

Once I have gotten that straightened out I will be using these commands to try to boot from the sdcard. The zIamge I got from http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/MSMQSD.

2.2 v002

One thing that I have not seen mentioned is the move to SD Card in app manager does not work, you may be aware of it but just in case.

I have run it over the weekend and the battery drain is no different to 2.1 and its stable, I dont get any sound on calls or messages only the vibrate mentioed in previous threads but I am sure a Iread some where people said they got sound but I don't

This is working well for an Alpha version, it is very good as a dual boot option and think it would be very good if it could be kept as an install option.

One thing that I don't understand though, I got it installed on my original SD Card that came with the phone, I have an additional SD Card but it will not install on that one, runs the process but when I run the

dd if=/sdcard/install of=/data/install && chmod 777 /data/install && /data/install

I get a error saying Install not found, why does it not recognise my other card.

hi J&Z...

I think you both are doing an amazing job, no question about that...!

I have two other questions thoug, questions that i have not seen answered in this thread...

1. Will you pleace consider making a thread for each android version you are working on ??

(One for the 2.1 and one for the 2.2)

It is, to say at least, a little confusing that some people don´t write what version they are on, when they repport bugs, or ask about something.

Also the thread are growing a lot faster this way with two different OS in one thread...

2. Are you working together at all, or working each on his own projekt ??

J working only on 2.1, and Z only on 2.2 as it looks to us ??

And would you consider to let other people in to bug-fix some of the problems ??

Kind of like an open projekt, as i´m shure that there is other people here who could help also ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jerpelea:

I haven't experienced any of these problems yet, actually I've been amazed myself that I could switch to video mode. It did crash when I tried editing settings in video mode, it worked fine editing settings in photo mode.

No crashes of market, phone which I did experience from previous version.

I did fully recover my phone with origional firmware before I applied the new version, maybe that makes a difference..

Awesome job guys!

Up to here everything is still fine cause its a commun bug and i've located the answer. I only have to type a command: adb shell killall servicemanager

I boot into 2.2 and then use my command prompt in Tools folder (sdk) onto my computer and type in "adb shell" and it says: error: device not found. I've check the drivers and there ok (Adb shell works fine when booted on 2.1). And yes i'm on debugging mode, still it won't do. I just can't get into ADB SHell in 2.2.

Bug in FreeX10 0.0.2:

I enabled wifi and used the static IP fix to get it working, with the wifi sleep policy to 'When screen turns off'. Now every time it disconnects from wifi when the screen turns off, it doesn't reconnect automatically. In the list of networks, it shows up as 'Disabled, secured with WPA/WPA2 PSK', instead of 'Remembered, secured with WPA/WPA2 PSK' or most preferably 'Connected'. If I click it, it shows the little box with Connect, Forget, Cancel buttons. Connect works, but like I said earlier, it's manual, not automatic.

Radio Signal ON-OFF Issue (at workplace only)!

Little weird issue with Radio:

I have been following this thread pretty closely since its inception and do not think this issue has been reported anywhere else on this thread.

I have been using Custom 2.2 ROM for last 70-80 hours or so and barring 1-2 random reboots and 1-2 inconsequential FCs, this ROM has been solid. Thanks J and Z :o.

As mentioned above, I have been using the ROM at home and did not have any issues with Radio signal. Today (Monday morning here) when I am at work and using this ROM I am seeing that it is struggling to stay connected with the network. Agreed, the network signal strength is an issue at the work, but SE 1.6 and 2.1 ROM used to manage this. With custom 2.2 ROM, am seeing that 70-80% of the times I am OFF network. My hunch is that this is due to longish time this ROM takes to get connected to the network. When I reboot to SE 2.1 ROM it takes 4-5 secs to connect to network, but 2.2 takes lot longer to connect to network. While this might not be a problem in areas where network signal strength is consistently good (at my home) but in areas where network signal strength is weak, this could be an issue. Assuming 2.2 ROM takes 20-30 secs to connect to a network and if network quality isn't good then the probability of network going OFF by the time ROM manages to latch on to the same is high. Since SE ROM doesn't take much time to latch on to a network, I have seldom noticed OFF-network issue with SE ROM even at work. Just a theory, do not know how apt it is. Till this improves, SE 2.1 at work and Custom 2.2 at home :(

Cheers.

android 2.1

Works very nicely on my x10a. But it now thinks its x10i (even though the 3g network works just fine, which is a bit weird given the differences between x10i and x10a in other forum posts). So as long as it works, it is just fine :-)

As for a bit of feedback, it would have been best if you provided a couple of pics or re-assuring words (on hindsight, which I may have overlooked) for us newbies to not panic when the phone goes silent for a couple of minutes after the flashing is done.

Anyway, this has been a much easier process than the rooting process I had done earlier (which was a piece of cake with the idiot proof 3 step method in itself).

Now if only I can dual boot it with the alpha version of stock android 2.2 for x10 :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] hagisbasheruk:
I had the same thing happen to me even although busybox(from market) was

installed,how i fixed it was to install terminal(from market) on to phone and do the following after the chmod error .

1. Open terminal on phone and type su (a super user popup comes up asking if you want to allow it) YES

2. Now we are in root carefully type the following

dd if=/sdcard/installer.sh of=/data/installer.sh [return key]

chmod 777 /data/installer.sh [return key]

./data/installer.sh [return key] NOTE DOT at BEGINNING

Then wait for your X10 to reboot (takes about a minute ),it may look like terminal has frozen when you issue that last command but don't worry it has not.

Once booted enable the nice black/purple wallpaper that goes with the black/purple boot up screen

Bug report AOSP 2.1 build 04

I have done some excessive testing and I must admit that I am impressed with the quality of the work you've guys been giving us.

Here are some bugs that I have found so far:

~ Keyboard instability, I have noticed that in some cases the keyboard is instable. Pressing the backspace button in any app will bring you back to the homescreen, a reboot fixes the bug.

EDIT: I found out that the keyboard crashing is a result of changing the density of the display to 200​

~ Camera issues, the camera is not really sorted yet, the default camera app allows us to switch to movie capturing and photo capturing. However, after recording a movie then stopping it, it does not save the file and it crashes.

Furthermore, after I tried a better app like for example Camera 360 (really good photo app) I found some problems that might help solving some other issues:

~ Resolution issues, any widescreen resolution setting will give artifacts in various custom camera software.

~ The flasher on the back is not recognised in the custom software (ie Camera 360)

~ Zoom is not supported in any of the camera software​

I hope that after adressing some of the above camera issues, that the origional camera app will be more stable too. But it might not have to do anything with it at all.

That's all for now, I hope it is a bit of help to you guys.

I have one question though, I would like to have a black notification bar. But I'm not sure what kind of theme to download and use, it seems every phone has their own themes and I don't know if using other phone themes will break my phone.

Thoughts anyone?
