I am not good in English. :(

May I ask, camcorder not work means can't recording video or the camara function not work?

Which also mean using other camara app like camara360 / vignette / etc. not work?

Thanks a lot.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] -- X10B --:
camera works ok at 360 and vignette.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kench928:
wow thank you so much!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
Doesn't give access to service tests? Speaker, microphone, etc?

Videocam Illusion from Market works great for camcorder.. and for photos, i use Vignette, with flash function working pretty good!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] hemo1001:
still missing the HD camcorder .... wish Z come back for us and fix it ..... otherwise we're counting on J with 2.3 ... after using 2.2 i can't back to 2.1 .... it's way better :S
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] -- X10B --:
z is abducted by aliens so expect delays:D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] cristianX10:
With vignette only appear lines on my screen, the image is extremely distorted but i can take pictures and look good. ¿someone knows whats the problem or has similar issues? Using demo version.

With camcorder illusion eveything fine but videos are recorded at 2x speed (aprox.), if someone can help withthis problems i would be very happy.

Z take your time your rom is awesome.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kunalgahlot:
is there ANY rom which is 2.2 or 2.2+ with HD camcoder??????/
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] jags_the1:
No and Zdzihu has been missing for a month now .. so i guess there has been no progress :(

By the way x10 mini has fully working camcoder on cm7 !!!!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MrHassell:
Camera - work in progress

Change the resolution to medium, high settings do not work properly atm. If you have problems with illusion, change the speed to lowest and try again. A little tweaking of the settings is all ;)

Video on the default camera, ability to view the video cam is present but recording is not implemented as stated in the front page description. The rom is perfectly stable for daily use and having Adobe Flash Player working is worth some serious beers!

This Beta4 is awesome!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bwyan Benton:
I thought chaging the settings to Med was only for the MIUI camera app....not stock 2.2.?

Anyways, vignette works fine for me when I used this rom. I did get those lines a couple times, but 99% of the time it ran perfect.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] cristianX10:
thanks but problems persist, in vignette i had the resolution at minimum (on demo version is the only available) and in illusion the speed is set to 1x and is the slowest option.

maybe i have to try the deprecated version of vignette? and with illusion nobody have the same issue?

thank you.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] peligo:
Yes, i miss HD too... and it seems so close, as he could make it work pretty good... i am hoping he appears here again. Otherwise, i think J or Trip could make it!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
We need the bootloader cracked or it would have already been done. :(
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Mayazcherquoi:
Even I know, as a developer myself, that it is important to provide communication back to the public. Just a little 'Hi', 'Hello', what he is up to if it's related to the X10 and Android? Yes, generally this community will still thank you regardless of your release time, but, just tell us anything! What's there to hide that's so important? :S

EDIT: Also, the reason I am not currently using this ROM yet is due to it having no native working camera recording solutions :-/ Otherwise you'd see me, and a lot of others, jump ship immediately.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
+1 and +1. We even have the xda app, so a quick post to say hi isn't a lot to hope for.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
this is the only custom rom 2.2 (and up) which has camera working (clicking photos)... 2.3 ROMs which are mostly modded/mixed versions J's GB/CM7RC1 rom... and 2.3 has no working camera at all (atleast as of now)... so if u want to use custom rom >2.1 with camera (atleast still images) this is ur best bet...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rdannar:
this was the 2.2 rom everyone used to develop cm or mod... most of the 2.2 roms use his camera files so they all work pretty similiar. Z just made the one everyone uses or mods... So most 2.2 roms ore mixed versions of Z roms.. I think I am the only one that has done a mixed version of J's GB... but same idea.. this rom started it all and is proven to be very stable and reliable
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
yes i agree with u... since this ROM was used as a base-rom for the subsequent other roms the camera functionality remains the same as it is in this rom... i myself use FreeX10-beta4 + CM6 settings + themes + lots of mods...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rodak:
On most roms ppl can longpress the menu button to open up the keyboard.

But this doesn't seems to work on this rom, is there any settings to activate this function or is it a bug?

Need to bring up keyboard in boxee remote app.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
it does work... in case it doesnt in ur case then try the HTC_IME kb...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rodak:
I use htc_ime, but it doesn't work on my phone, maybe something i have unistalled that broke something :( Have removed a lot of "junk" when i installed this rom long time ago. Maybe time for a fresh install ;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kunalgahlot:
I guess we can expect Z back as soon as there is a Camera working in some other ROM,till then until people have no other alternative but to use this ROM!!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] U5tabil:
Im using the cm rom until z is updating this rom. This rom I can't get the wifi to work properly. But on the cm the wifi is quite stable. Dunno why since cm is built on this rom... But I hope z is coming back :-)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Mayazcherquoi:
I fail to understand how cracking the boot-loader will solve anything? A boot-loader loads the operating system upon system boot. It shouldn't have anything related to getting the camera to work, as the drivers are in the kernel...

I meant the entire feature of the camera (video recording/HD, etc) to be working.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] -- X10B --:
Opened bootloader can install custom kernels.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rdannar:
When u have a kernal with 2.1 drivers it sure makes it hard to use with 2.2 or 2.3. Crack the boot and get 2.2 or 2.3 drivers to work with... have you worked with the files at all????

Confused.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Mayazcherquoi:
I thought that was possible by flashing already? :S Anyways, it would just be easier to reverse engineer the PC Companion tool and get the encryption key from that, instead of trying to brute force it (which isn't possible) which I've seen multiple posts suggesting to try to do so.

No I have not. Just because I'm a developer does not mean I develop for the X10 or other mobile platforms.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
If that's possible please get to work on it! However, your lack of understanding of the basics has me skeptical. That is a good old fashioned challenge. :-) There is also SEUS. Get a pay pal account, and the donations will more than pay for your time. Plus there are a couple funds already started for whoever cracks it first. Let's see those developer skills.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Mayazcherquoi:
It depends on how much security they have embedded in the program. Reading assembly isn't that difficult, and it's more than likely that their key is stored in a memory address rather than having to be generated by an algorithm each time. And what basics are you referring to? The fact that I know very little about development for a mobile phone (partially due to the fact that I've never attempted it before or plan to do it)? That's irrelevant. I know I don't understand much structure of an Android mobile device, there's no denying that. I'm just suggesting an alternative to cracking the key.

Also, unfortunately, no amount of money will amount to the education I will lose if I dedicate my time. Even if I have finished my education, I will not accept any donations.

I'm sure other developers that can read assembly and have more time will take a deeper look into it :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Phantasm4489:
the signing keys are checked in the phone not in the update software running on your pc. if it were as simple as you suggest it would have been done a long time ago
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
I'm confused? Are you studying to be a developer? How about the real world experience gained towards your education? They say there's no better way to learn than doing. However, I have to agree with the post above. It probably is in the device. That and your misunderstanding of why we need the bootloader cracked and flashing are what I meant by the basics.

I wish you well in your studies. Now get out of these forums and back to the books. :-)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MrHassell:
Bootloader cracking thread for this conversation? You will understand it better by research and besides it has no relevance to this firmware, other than the camera we would all like working 100%.

Nandroid backups taken from xRecovery, loading to an avd for emulation in eclipse, does not reveal anything about the boot loop or loss of baseband when reinstalling xRecovery. The security is in process at the lower levels and on the device itself, not in PC companion or SEUS so that thinking is another red Herring.

Does anyone know how to recover from the aforementioned boot loop of doom after xRecovery install? Appears permission related but is not obvious.. can removal of the second instance installed, fix this or is a full flash required?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
Hmm. So the only things not working in this ROM are due to not having the bootloader cracked(and all other ROMs), and his suggestion that another method might work is not relevant? You pass off the camera like it's the Chinese Keyboard.

I agree that it doesn't need to go on and on, but it was certainly worth investigating. Thanks for your answer BTW. It even appears the dev is waiting on the bootloader, and the majority of us are waiting on the camera and camcorder. You can say the camera is working, even that it supposedly takes better quality pictures, but the camera app itself is very limited IMHO.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
I am sorry but I dint follow.... which loop of doom?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MrHassell:
Ever tried installing xRecovery to the firmware? Unless you're interested in knowing why it occurs, suggest you don't do it, unless your intrigued by the security & permissions... it causes constant boot loopholes and breakdown of android.system ;-)

When someone tells me not to do something, it straight away makes the priority list of things to try out. Being that 90% of the conversation has nothing to do with anything, I thought I was bored enough to look into it.

I've posted a SCB Version B for FreeX10 beta 3/4 here:

That post has the framework-res.apk, and the next post has a zip for xRecovery. I know it works for beta 4 now, because the framework-res.apk is exactly the same (I compared them).

If you want to know how to make your own (to get Version N), here's some info about it that I posted:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
No, I read the OP, which clearly says xRecovery and Busybox are already installed, and DO NOT REINSTALL. IT WILL CAUSE CONSTANT REBOOT. I don't see the point in even trying. It was already there. Having two versions would create a conflict in my mind.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Crocodile1973:
ah thank you. it was the compression causing the bootloop. many thanks for your help
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rdannar:
No biggie... i have worked with a lot of the files on these roms so i know them well... it is not impossible to get camera working without bootloader. Just harder... +1 on brute statement... i will be checking into camera options a little bit soon.. feeling more confident with files...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Grospolina:
Here are some of the basics:

- The key used to encrypt is not the same as the key used to decrypt. Therefore, the encryption key is not stored in memory.

- You can't easily figure out the encryption key even if you know the decryption key (or even the entire decryption algorithm).

- That being said, there's no reason that PC Companion needs to know the keys at all.

You can find out more by reading up on public-key cryptography. You're talking about symmetric-key, which is insecure because of the exact issue that you posted.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] darkgoth678:
Yeah I had to change to this ROM as well. I tried this Free X10 one and I worked perfectly. Camera (except camcorder), sounds, USB storage and all. Though after it rebooted until the battery finally gave out, I never got signal. Not once with this FreeX10 ROM did I get service after all those reboots. Yeah all the other features and speed of the phone might be good, but if I can't use my phone to make calls I can't use the ROM.

Guess I'll have to wait for Beta 5...

Great work though, seriously everyone putting effort into getting the Xperia X10 on 2.2 deserves sever recognition.

bugs and Future

sorry i am kinda a noob to this but when i was testing the ROM recently (shortly after installation i got one FC and then reboot it was a random one ... and dont ask me wht caused it haha bc i have no clue and i am just wondering did anyone notice any bugs that i might be encountering?? BUT after that ONE FC it ran smoothly !! nothing happened till now! maybe caused by some apps?

Lastly....

Does anyone know what is the agenda for this ROM like possible future updates?? any bugs needed to be fixed? maybe waiting for boot loader crack? fixing the camera? or we are at a DEAD END ;( i am not saying anything just a bit lost after a month of no news. does this mean we are not getting any more updates and no possible camera fix?

:p

You were definitely not on the proper baseband...

For some reason people seem to have an issue with reading on these forums
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] x10user2011:
I find this ROM to be extremely fast and brilliant. One factor is the battery drainage I noticed since using the 2.1 . Battery on this ROM goes down fast about like 20% in thirty minutes with music on and full brightness, nothing else
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DJBoxer:
yer i had the same battery was draining fast i reckon for at least first few days then after a while it settled down i always got me poweramp running full volume full brightness but i also use system panel from market to end unwanted appz when i do blast me tunes out etc.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] darkgoth678:
Okay i apologize, ill look up how to change basebands
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] NoirCavalier:
So uninstall News & Weather-App in the System-Folder, which causes a lot of Battery & install SetCPU.

@ the original ROM the CPU is set to work on demand, while @this ROM it´s not.

So set SetCPU to work on demand, and it´ll work just fine. ;-)

im using this rom 4 a little while now and gotta say its impressive.. works really wel however theres a little thing that im wonderin if any of u r experiencing which i didnt really have trouble with in 2.1..

when i have my bluetooth headset connected listenin to music it kinda skips a second here n there and also when i make/receive call about 90% of the time after the call it doesnt reconnect the music back to headset.. and in settings it then shows as only phone connected but not media. i have to unpair and pair again but is there any1 out there who can help me here?

hope i dont sound disrespectful in any way. the rom is great and uv done a great job.. much appreciated!! lookin forward to future developments from ya :-)
