I haven't even tried v004ex and you already have 4.1?? I can't keep up with all these new flavors lol. So outside of the obvious browser difference, anything else new with with v004.1ex? Change log with with the specific tweaks would be nice.....if possible. And again thanks for all your hard work.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:

Ericwill, you are a demi-god among men. Thanks for the ex with Zeam!!

unhappy

this rom is awesomely fast
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Mess your phone up? Please clarify..

BTW, have you filled all prerequisites out from the first post?

Because, for sure, if you check positive out all the requisites, the rom will run flawlessly.

Cheers,

Erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
You are very welcomed my buddy. Enjoy!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] bodomfan:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] AfroLoots:
What's the difference between launcher pro and zeam launcher? And if you look at my signature, which one am I running?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Lockon Stratos:
Erick thank you very much for taking time to respond to everyone's question including mine...that is much appreciated. You are definitely one of the best rom cooks here in xda and not to mention a good person to deal with.

So I'm guessing the clean version does not have gapps?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xtbk9999:
For your convenience you can just go to market and try out both of them,

You have the stock SE Arc launcer if you have 2 icons bottom left, 2 bottom right and one button in the middle to open the app drawer.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Hey buddy,

Thanks for your kind comments, appreciate that :)

Well, the clean version is the one without timescape, gmail, talk, and other stock app that can be replaced for another similar one and lightest, as well, option.

It's done to be faster and "clean" :)

Hope you enjoy it ;)

Cheers,

Erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mdintx:
On the clean version, can you follow it up with flashing the gapps.zip in order to get gmail. I just don't want timescape.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
I can create such package and make it available for you. Do you need talk as well?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Lockon Stratos:
Thanks for the clarification Erick.....I'll use the clean version....if anything I can just download whatever is missing like gmail ;-)

Thanks again.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
You are very welcomed my friend.

Hope you enjoy this rom.

Let me know if can I assist you in anything else.

@erick

I just wanna ask, why did you put some apps. e.g. alarm clock, calculator, etc as user apps?

If I flash this rom, can I transfer those apps on system/app. Will it affect the "tweaks" or performance of the rom?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Utopie1608:
Can we update easily or do we have to erase everything? Thanks :-)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] darkmax1974:
With EricWill's ROM, I think you just went TRANS-AM!

Sorry, couldn't help it! :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Lockon Stratos:
LOLOLOL no worries darkmax....and yes I can confirm the TRANS-AM upgrade. If you happen to see a sparkling red streak on a clear night...that's my Cherudim X10 going TRANS-AM :D:D:D:D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
hey buddy, well, I moved to user app for performance purposes. That's the reason. I stronglly recommend to use Link2SD for all allowed app except Link2SD and youtube app.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] astrall:
hey, thanks for your reply. :)

I just want to clarify. I can link2sd all user apps on your rom after flashing? EXCEPT link2sd and youtube ONLY?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
yeah..link all except link2sd and youtube.. cheers, erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Eugene1991:
wonder if i should flash to 004.1 or not. You just fixed the camcorder issue rite?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] astrall:
@Erick

thank you for your replies. :)

keep up your very good work. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Hey buddy,..it will up to you..there is memory management improvements beyond camcorder fix..gor a speed experience you should try the new clean zeam..it will depends about what are you looking for..
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
hey friend, you are very welcomed.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Eugene1991:
Alrite gonna flash from v004 to v004.1 :)

You cook really good ROMs :D
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Utopie1608:
Could you answer me please? :-)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Hey buddy, you need to backup your data if you don't mind to have to install all again.. for this you can use titanium backup or another one as you wish.

The flash process is quite simple and takes only a few minutes, however, it's necessary that you read the first post of this thread and follow step by step all the instruction beyond full fill all prerequisites.

Hope to help you.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Eugene1991:
flashed and everything seems ok.

You just added # all the way on the Media Tweak part and got the camcorder working? Hehe sorry for asking just wanna learn something :p
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Hey buddy,

Yeah.. this # means a comment .. so the compiler will ignore these lines that starts with #

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] darkmax1974:
Someone here mentioned using SD Card Speed Booster a few pages ago.... but when I try, the app can only be used on 2.2 Froyo. EWJet is based on the 2.1, so the app is entirely incompatible.

Solutions?

Adding programs to the "cln" version

I can't seem to create a .zip that I can use from xRecovery to reinstall my favorite apps. (I keep getting a message that the zip file is bad.)

So I tried to get around it by adding the apk's to the zeam black cln version's data/app folder. This too failed.

Is there a way to create a zip file that I can run from xRecovery to reinstall all my apps when I change ROMS? Or is there a way I can safely put them into of the data/app folders of your ROMS before I load them onto my SD cards?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Eugene1991:
You can place all the .apk in the flashtool>custom>apps folder and install it using flashtool. Saved game/data is in the SD right?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ParrotSquawk:
I don't want to have to use the PC to do the reinstalls if I don't have to.

I was hoping to co recreate a .zip that xRecovery could use to reinstall the apps.

As for saved game data, i don't know. I know that I am never able to recover game data or my contacts and appointments after I change ROMs even thought I do a custom recovery of data.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] AfroLoots:
I ran into a similar problem when I first started this experimentation with my new X10. Turns out that smartgardens tip to backup with xRecovery then do an advanced restore of settings only is an excellent solution. Then I just use titanium backup to restore whatever is missing after bootup.

Funny thing was before my first wipe/reset, I had redundant backups using several backup softwares. Not a one could restore my contacts. Not even TB.

Sent from my X10a running EW Jet ArcEx Plus V004.ex
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Eugene1991:
So using the xRecovery backup and advance restore data method worked well with you?

I wonder what data it restores? Will it affect future ROM modifications? performance?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
For sure I will handle it as soon as possible to use all the benefits that will come.

Hold a while for good news.

Cheers,

Erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Let me see what I can do for you.. ;)

Cheers,

Erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Hey buddy,

Nice to see you here after a while.. :)

Which applications do you wanna include in this zip file? Upload it to somewhere and let me see what I can do for you. Maybe I can handle it for you.

Another way is to use Titanium Backup to backup all your app and restore it after install a new rom.

Add me at gmail erickwill and we chat talk about.

Cheers,

Erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
How do you do to backup your contacts? Why don't you use the default backup application that is native on stock Contact app?

Cheers,

Erick
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Hey buddy,

Performance will be affected only if you replace zipaligned app.. otherwise there won't be any side effect concerning backup restore.

Cheers,

Anyway, the intention was great! :)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Hey buddy,

I already use some of these tweaks for a while, additionally there is a few that doesn't works for our devices at all, or at least it's impossible to measure the difference before and after..

Hopefully there will be good improvements for our V005ex :)

I'm using the battery tweak with ArcEX.004.1.ex.

its 10am here at the moment, with 3G/wifi on for 8hrs and whatsapp messaging constantly for 2~3hr or so during that time + bit browsing

I have 35% battery since 16hr 35min unplugged.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xtbk9999:
hey Erick,

just been wondering if auto brightness is working on the rom for a while now..

I use switchpro widget to adjust most of my phone settings on home screen,

but when I set it to auto, the level of brightness doesn't seem to adjust itself when I cover up the sensor with my finger.

I know the auto-brightness thing has become very subtle since the 2.1 update on X10, but I dun seem to see a difference here..

may I ask what setting or what apps do you use for adjusting the screen?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Lockon Stratos:
Just curious...did you flash the battery tweak + the network patch from that thread?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xtbk9999:
I only fixed permission and flashed BL patch, I wasn't so sure what to do with that network patch, bit confused :p

since the file says USA network patch with x10i but I'm with a New Zealand carrier, not sure if theres any difference
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] ParrotSquawk:
reboot into recovery

Erick:

Is there a way to force a reboot directly into recovery mode and after it reboots into the OS, clear out the flag so that the next reboot doesn't get forced into recovery.

I have seen many reboots that have a recovery option but they never work on the X10.

Any thoughts?

bugs

using plus v 004.1ex on x10a (coming from a stock flash)

when i talk to people on the phone the screen dose not turn off only goes black (but its still on it looks grey

using marathon browser and other apps i quickly (30-2 hours) get a low memory warning

not a bug but the sony sms skin is slow with a noticeable lag / animation any way to remove animation ?

also for your rom maybe a very very clean one and then for the plus one have it fully loaded and ready to go out of the box like google apps titanium back up, flash light app, set up wizard ect ect?

hi i have this rom on my phone and its realy great however i have just 1 problem the link2sd doesnt seem to work i have made ext2 partition on sd card and rebooted phone and opened link2sd up and it asked me to restart and when i went back to the application it told me mount:invalid argument i have tried to sort it many of times but nothing seems to fix it and i have made sure app2sd hasnt been used as i wiped the complete phone and installed rom on top of original firmware.has anyone got any ideas so a can fix this please as i would realy appreciate any help you can give for this problem i have thanks
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] erickwill:
Please take a look here:

What you need:

* root permission.

* ext2 partition on your SD card. 2 partitions set up, first FAT32 (or FAT16) and second ext2, both are primary.

I use free "MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition" (windows application) for this.

You can create ext2 partition without repartitioning, formatting or deleting anything with this tool. Connect your SD card to PC with a card reader or phone itself and make it visible as a drive. Open Minitool select this drive and resize down FAT partition, you will see an unallocated area at the end of the card. Create ext2 partition (as primary) in that area, click apply. Insert card and reboot the phone. (To be on the safe side backup your data before starting)

* That's all. Just install Link2SD.apk, it will do all necessary. No need to copy files or run scripts.*

Enjoy ;)

It works, you just need to start BusyBox before install Xrecovery to use. I am using the current Busybox version without complain.
