http://www.petitiononline.com/froyo/petition.html
it`s not good that every one make a petition.
Hm, that is the request I posted this weekend at SE and I thought there is a thread already on this at XDA....
Dudes,
As everybody who is active in the X8 section, noticed that FXP leaved and i think that the other devs will leave in the near time.
We as proud owners of the X8 should think about what we need for our phone.
So each user who can do something for it should do it. If it is a theme, an icon pack or a widget, please do it and post it.
So what do you think about my idea?
Heh i will do something, if i can but sorry i cant program anything so sorry

Don't panic. Just wait for ICS source. In Gingerbread there's almost nothing new in development.

No big loss here ... the FXP ROM is incomplete (VGA-only camera, broken FM Radio) and bug riddled, and the "how to install" is lousily documented making it a unnecessary rocket science to get it installed.
and i think that the other devs will leave in the near time.

I don't see any indication that doixanh has abandoned us. He said he needs some time for his own (real life matters), so that's perfectly fine.
While I loved the fast-paced updates he released I think it would be sufficient if he would be so kind to cook an update once in a while when there's either a new Android revision (i.e. 2.3.8) that fixes a security problem or when there's a fix for some severe bug.
GingerDX, in my opinion, is THE most feature-complete and stable Android 2.3 series ROM we have for the X8.
If we all learn about rom/app development, our phone will live forever (?)
as I can learn to develop? I'd like to help.
If someone is willing to be kind,and make thread for beginner developers,which includes:
-First steps in system developing
-Tutorials on app and rom building
-Tools etc.
Also,include easy tasks that devs are not up to/having no time for,like "Test that app with different somenting-values on this file,report",or "Examine this device,find more about drivers,parts,etc.",or "Translate this ..." That's what users can do.
I'm certainly willing to participate on this.

Heh nice idea, unfortunately I do not have any development skills whatsoever. I think there will be enough x8 development, though .

actually i was thinking that too,,, i am an IT student and i too like to contribute on developing a cool up to date custom rom for our Xperia X8s, (i'm not the richest type to buy those dual core droid, but i love my X8 and will stick to it for years) so that i will do my best to learn android and to create a custom rom.... also we can get help from current professionals too....
For everybody that still using Stock 2.1, here's a theme that makes your x8 looks almost identical to the 2011 minis,, Its made by A-chep,D-shel, and the different color versions by Me.. So chek them out, you'll like it! Link here:
X-Mini : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1214655
Sorry About my English... Im learning
Sim unlock!!!!
For a start, personally i think what it needs is more tools in Linux environment. Now that X8 bootloader has been cracked, it should free us from ever being bound to SE allegiance to MS.
Android evolves from Linux. So it makes natural sense to have tools on our linux desktop as well.
Im doing my part http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363903 Hope it makes a difference to someone
So here we go. My development is over - I'm done with it and want to tell you something about me before I leave (of course I will be here, but only sometimes and won't make any more projects). Why I need to end this all? This is a question. I told that on my DX8 thread on X10 development section - my hands have Carpal Tunnely Syndrome and I fighting with this for about few month or so. Now it's pretty nice, I'm holding myself and pain is not so bad and not hurting me everyday (only sometimes).
But what can I say about myself? It's very hard, but I will try to tell you everything I remember best:
I've started my adventure with Android after I bought Xperia X10 something like ~2 years ago. It was very nice choose and I started to learn some "noob-edits" like deleting officiall 2.1 apps (after I update it from 1.6) to make my X10 faster. Never heard about XDA yet. Then I started to write some first posts on my blog (which is old and closed already for months). I posted there my opinion about X10, my first news of Xperia family, and more. Then I get proposition from one forum to be VIP there. Now, heh, it's my forum . I worked there about Gameloft games etc. to make X10 better (won't tell where etc. cause on XDA it's not allowed - let's tell that my past is not "clean" - it's warez and hackers job yeah. Then I was asked to make some first steps on XDA, writing threads, make myself more international etc. Like you see - it was nice idea . But let's go back. After I close my blog I need to sell my first X10, but one of the best guys here, and very polite and fair friend, mohibb bought me one X10, to make my back-to-job possible. Then I back with some DiXperia for X10 users, can't remember which one. The development on XDA and my forum growed more and more, YT channel too, and my blog was already closed....And then, some time after I bought Xperia Play, and started to play with Play . Made DiXperia number first, then DiXperia 2, which is my last project in Android developping. Now, because of hands problem, I need to end this all and I think you respect my decision and you're happy to use (or used before) any of my ROM, and your device was better at least than Stock ROMs . All last threads like DX8 for X10 and DX2 for Play are complete in 10000% and I think the best fans or polite guys here will help all new persons here, with some bugs or anything else - I'm counting on you guys, cause I will be here only for free-talking about spam-features D), not for development or some new updates. And please don't ask if I will ever back - I think I won't. I have now my private life problems (girl, which I'm falling in love, arguing with me and it's all over...), school starts yesterday, I have much more things to do. But I will never forget about X10 and Play community, all best fans and haters and more. I want to thanks for Moderators and Administators for great job about XDA site and many, many more! Can't tell everything cause I will need to edit this thread thousand times to complete all I want to say!
It's not so long as I wanted to be, but it's enough. Goodbye guys, love our community, and I will be here, but not so often, and with not new projects.

be careful about that!
I still remember well,your rom dixperia 7 was the first custom rom I used. That started my craze to flash almost every single rom available,because of dixperia 7 my love for the x10 grew.,when I almost gave up on it.
Dikej,your one of the best developers the x10 ever had,and its sad to see you end development but I understand. ,personal life and health is far much more important.
I wish you luck and healthy hands my buddy Dikej.

Good Luck
Damian!
I always nice to read which person lives behind 'the developer'.
Altough I never used one of your ROMs, i always read something good about them.
Even that I wasn't a DXperia-user (during DXperia 6, I was on Trips ROM), you've given me a great x10. Why, you ask?
Because you were developing at a high level, other developers were also working at high level. So therefor: every ROM became great ROM. It's because developers learned from each other and helped each other. So there was a benefit for me
Ofcourse, real life is more important. So i wish you all the best.
Thank you for getting the best out of X10!
Best whishes and good luck for you !
And another good friend leave our lovely X10 Forum!
Have fun and enjoy your life.
Thanks buddy for your hard and awesome work!
Greets Maik
good luck...hope some new devs will come and keep our x10 alive.
Thanks for your contributions
Good luck & Have fun

take good care of yourself (especially studies), i join the one who said "be careful about that "
have a great afternoon, see you around
Its been fun on Arc/S Community on XDA
Cheers to all Arc/S users. The Sexiest Device we ever had. Sleek Design, Handy and Handful device for a Mid Range its pretty Cool.
Upon using the Phone for few months I am still love this other mid range phone out there.
Checking every 5 hrs on XDA and spending many time reading the Arc/s thread. I did developed a ROM though I discontinued it coz of some Annoying dev's out there who don't want any competition about the roms. I mean the site was intended for us to Share and Experiment with our handset. The only thing worked out is my Swap Thread and I really have good time with it and a company notice me then proposed to Buy my developing Swapler app and I give thanks all to XDA forum. I truly appreciate the Motive of setting this forum up and the Moderators on Arc/S are very nice to the users.
Before I leave the Arc/S community I will just make Roms for my Fellow Filipino mates with Chaos. I was still wanting to develop good roms here. I was planing to Tandem with Chaos to make such good roms for Arc/s. But I guess some troll will be Intimidating our Release and again Fire will spark over and over again so I got sick of these (Kid/Infant Attitude) as I guess Iridaki will Agree with me.
I will post my Creations on Android Section from this point. I will make with add Swapler and realease for free but its still on Approval.
Its been fun. I hope moderators will automatically delete Irrelevant topic of Troll here. Hammer theme with Chuck Norris :victory:
Its just when Free sharing become business donation to others.

Even though I don't know much about your work or your support for the Arc / Arc S, it's sad to see guys leaving thanks to a bunch of morons that's envy on other guys quality work. Yes, your SWAP application is joy and quality (at the same time) that has saved me a lot of times when struggling to make ICS worth my time, and to avoid making this too fanboyish - I wish u all luck with whatever you now are going to do!
Thanks for your support, Patambiz! And a lot of greetings (hopefully) from the Arc community.
