Advice for updating Experia X1 - XPERIA X1 General

Hello Guys,
First of all I would like to thank all the guys here for sharing their knowledge, files, making extraordinary tutorials etc. I am a newbie here and also a new owner of X1i which i got in german language. I know how newbie posts may look like so i tried to explore the forum as much as i could and after so many tries (unnatural forces saved the phone from hitting the wall;-) i successfully flashed my Xperia to English language. That was my goal.
I didn't know how to backup my original ROM (no problem about that cause i won't be needing it) but i noted all the original info i could find from it before updating.
Forum is really huge and somtimes its needed to go over 20+ pages at one thread. So please don't mind me (bear with the newbie;-) ) Everything is working fine for me now. I would like to know if my system is up-to-date. Maybe there are newer stuff, English language, to update my phone, rom, operating system, etc. This is my before/after situation.

I was also playing around some more and installed HTC TouchFLO, Manilla.
TouchFLO 3D 1.3.35345.1_1630.38
It is working fine but sometimes when using it, customizing options, just exploring the phone, nothing special, it uses to freeze sometimes. I have to remove the battery to restart it. Do such things happen, i know its not xperia native? Is there maybe a newer port of TouchFLO for Xperia i could use.
Thanks a bunch guys!

There is a new ROM update for Generic UK ROM. Please check link below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475482

Maybe you could try a custom cooked ROM with the newest touch flo such as:
Touch-IT 4.0 b4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485624
(based on newest UK ROM)
Bxsteez Touch of Color 2.00 b2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486100
(based on newest NAM ROM)
Both have the landscape touch flo and are really fast roms...
For all available roms plz check:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=477801
If you ever need apps or else etc look for an overview right here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441439

New ROM is available via Sony Update Service now, for those people who were reluctant to update with the ROMs available on xda...

Thank you all guys very much, really appreciated.
With TouchFLO i have now, i got rid of freezes by removing it from today's items and adding touchflo panel.. So far no freezes or anything. Definitely later today i'll give it a go with Touch-IT 4.0b4, looks really great.
@Lokatho, thanks buddy for all these links. I see from your signature you have 4.0b4 running, i bet i runs great. Regarding SPL, it was my main trouble before i could update new rom. After updating it to SPL-0.72.OliNex everything goes smoothly as through butter, no more 0% stops or such and i can update roms easily. I see you have different one, i am not sure if its the same as this one i have. Do i have to update it or just to keep the one i have.
I used my laptop with windows for doing all the updates but i also use a Mac for everyday work. I can confirm that BluePhoneElite 2, for Mac users, is working like a charm with X1.. This phone is really beautiful. I will also give it a try with MissingSync for Mac later, if i can do the syncing with it i'll be more than happy ;-)

Nope, it's the same version. But it's the first version of Hard-SPL for X1, so Hard-SPL v1.0. But when in boot mode it says SPL-0.72.OliNex.
Have been running roms from itje since his Touch-IT 2.2 and love them ever since. But I must say the 4.0 is imho the best!

Thanks a lot, now much more things are clear to me.
I updated to Touch-It v.4 b6 (in the mean time it had become availabe). It is working flawlessly. I had some minor problems, wi-fi droppings, but i found out that my X1 just doesn't get along very well with my MSI router. This weekend i tried it with one of Belkin's 11b-g-n routers and the phone has rock soild wireless connection. So i bet its something related with the compatibility or MSI just sucks. I tried with no wi-fi security, WPA-WPA2/PSK, WEP and it drops all the time and looses connection. With Belkin it works just great with any of the wi-fi security.
As i am brand new with this, a week or so, i was also playing around with making my own rom, based on UK R2AA010. Actually i made very much stripped OS, got rid of most of the things i don't use at all, totally lite version. Rom is fast and there is plenty of free memory. I dont know how hard is to incorporate TouchFLO 3D in it, but also i dont mind installing it separately, as i did it first time when i tried touchflo on xperia. I am not sure what's the latest xperia touchflo port version. I tried Blackstone (with black numbers on home panel, if thats the version) which i dont like. I prefer the variant as in latest touch-it4b6 or the one i had for the first time, TouchFLO 3D 1.3.35345.1_1630.38. It works fine with the panel installed, freezes when in today's items. But when restarting the phone default experia panel is loaded and not touchflo one. Can't figure it out. Can someone put a little light on TouchFLO for me please?
Thanks guys!

Great to hear this. When it is ready, could you possibly also release it as a Kitchen? I've gotten spoiled and enjoy tailoring the ROM exactly to my needs. Also, will you include the newer versions of mobile Office?
I will try to include the latest office version also i will update most of the oem software and services with the latest versions, but the rom space is a lil limited so i will do my best to create at least rom good as helmi's one
Yeah! This is very good news!! If you need a beta tester or any "help" you can count on me. I have a Trinity but the Blue Angel is my favorite!

I will post kitchen when most of the bugs are fixed
Thanks man, i will test it
Thank you, Xplode.
I assume that this has camera support built in and no MIDI support? Those are the 2 main issues that I have with Helmi's ROM. I don't need the camera support as I have a SX66, but I DO need the Midi support. That's why I use the Kitchen. So i can dump the useless( for me) stuff and replace it with stuff that I need.

new to all this . looking for wm6 and touch flo for my new Qtec 9090

hi i hope some1 can help me . iv just joined this site as some1 told me they used this site to upgrade their blue angel to windows 6 and touch flo. id luv to do the same to mine. but i am very much a virgin to all this. if any1 could tell me where to look and the general way to go about it . i would be very grateful. cheers paul
first of all, i would recommend to look all basic facts about upgrading up in the wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
there are tutorials on how to upgrade and step by step instructions to do so.
and when it comes to picking a rom to upgrade, if you like touchflo in general, i would recommend sun_dream's wm6.1 build 20758. it has integrated touchflo cube. but be aware that this is battery draining and may be slow on your device, if you don't overclock it. i use that rom and have my blueangel overclocked to a permanent 472Mhz, which is much better now. in general i think most of the people here like manila2d or touchflo3d better, with is comparable to the normal HTC home, but animated and better personalized, as the cube is nice, and really eye candy but slow and battery draining.
when it comes to the link to the specs of the rom itself, i'm quoting sun_dream here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=428030):

unfortunately, i don't have the actual links anymore, so probably it would be best to get it via pm from one of the senior members!
hope it will work out for you, and whenever you get stuck in the upgrading process, (assuming, you can download a rom at all), feel free to ask, i've done this often enough to be able to say, i made all the mewbie mistakes and now know, how to handle them
Chef_Tony
@Chef_Tony
Uhmmm, none of the roms from sun_dream (or any rom for the Blue Angel that I am aware of for that matter) come with the cube (TouchFlo, yes, but not the cube). For some reason, no one placed too much importance in porting it to the BA. I guess that Slither2006's version of the cube was good enough so that it wasn't necessary..
Just wanted to make that small correction, other than that... good post
mmh, i wonder where i got it then, i just looked it up in "remove programs" it says "xda-developers HTC Cube" and i am pretty sure i didn't install it myself, so i assumed it was in the rom, on the other hand, i'm still quite a newbie myself, and i'm still confusing those HTC features like home and cube with touchflo and manila, if there are differences at all. i know that is off-topic and 3rd party stuff, but i gotta look it up and maybe correct the post above
a bit worried
hi there i hav just been following some steps about upgrading to wm.6. but i says it wont work on PH20A2 (Harrier) / CDMA device (How to make sure you don't have PH20A2?). when i to device info it says model number PH20B . is this o.k . i'm very new to all this.

29022 is up, follow the white rabbit...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15707730&postcount=8079

updated physics engine and utask app by ultrashot...my thanks to him...
patched htc album to novsync, faster scrolling once cache is made...
removed no longer supported apps (my phone and marketplace)...if u need them install via cab...
Important Note:

it will not allow you to flash any other ROM (i couldn't even flash official HTC ROM when i tried a ROM with that radio)

There seem to be HR and MC losing data issues with some roms, so i recommend flashing a htc original rom and only then this one, before proceeding as always make a backup of all data before attempting to use this rom...
This is released as "WORK IN PROGRESS" so you can if you want, post what works/what doesn't...
in time i'll correct bugs and release when it seems fit...meanwhile i'll actively answer all major questions, giving all support which is always nice to have...hope you all like it...

Q: Whats the difference between 3D and non3D version?
A: they differ in the drivers...as name says...one has opengl drivers and less 16Mb of ram because of them...the other has not and 16Mb more than 3D version of same rom...the rest is the same (programs/tweaks/customization)...and no you cant install P3D Drivers on non3D rom cause it will break compatibility...
Q: Is there any diference in speed between 3D and non3D version?
A: simple answer...yes, thanks to gfxboost that is included. but at a cost of 16Mb of RAM for DDI drivers...so that means programs (some) can be crashing because of lack of...opera/youtube are 2 of them...but i also wouldn't call non3D slow at least wm6.1 wise...you'll be the judge...
Q: Tested incoming /outgoing calls... but cannot speak or hear...plus camera all black...whats wrong?
A: You have the wrong radio version installed...change it! radio 1.59.xx.xx and above should work...
Q: Can i run manila 2.1/2.5/2.6 on my polaris?
A: Yes you could if someone made the port (someone like me)...but...you will never see it running simply because there isnt enough RAM/ROM to handle it, there are no fully working opengl drivers...and like so...our polaris simply doesn't meet the minimum sys specs to be able to fully run manila 3D...even if someone wanted to make the port...id just say: just buy a HD2! its cheap compared with the all work you'll have ahead...

@ pcarvalho
I think ... that your rom have more ram available.
Sorry for that but i have only one Polaris for testing (with your rom inside now)so i don't remember exactly the ammount of ram.
And something else...Why the progressive bar (in abum video) always missing in all the latest roms?

must be some wm6.5 compatability issue...i didn't change anything there...
Everything is working fine for me!
1 thing. the sound is different then other roms. when i play music it is a bit low.. not low volume but sounds very low, no high tones.
ive installed wow srs hd and now its fine.
good job! will keep this for a while!
so it works without any radio upgrade.... if i not mistaken, it is the shipped radio version....
thx anyway...
Maybe we have a problem with Quick gps...i push the button but nothing happens.

i also tested it and it was (and still is) working...
I have downloaded TranMinhMan's latest. But it looks like there is no need to flash that and test after the tests done as above by you people. Thanks. Now using pcarvalho's 6.5 with radio 1.58.32.33. (quick GPS not working)
Well, in the morning I've tested TranMinhMan's ROM, now pcarvalho's ROM. I've been using Win 6.5 since the first ROM I found and I must say, I'm delight with the progress so far. In TranminhMan, with 3.13 drivers from the total of 84 MB, I think free was around 40-45.
@pcharvalho: great great job. I'm using Radio 1.65.xx.xx and everything works fine. Indeed, video is working on Album. The battery drain ain't big, so I guess you enabled some power savings in registry. I installed a battery metter and works great.
Some suggestions for the next ROM:
1. Include KeyLock.cab for those who want to enable hardware buttons when device is lock
2. Include DeviceLock1.2.cab. It creates a shortcut to Lock function and this shortcut can be mapped to a hardware button.
3. WM6.5 Titanium Weather tab would be a nice addition.
4. SyncroTime is always needed
5. PIM Backup is always needed
6. Toggle Wifi On/Off: AKToogleWiFi.cab (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2868203&postcount=1) It creates a shortcut in start menu to enable/disable WiFi with one click. By the way, what is the default wifi protocol enabled b ? g ?
This is the begining of a new era for Polaris. The device keeps getting smoother and smoother. I'm really glad that finally we have a cooker on xda for win 6.5 Polaris Roms. You have made my day pcharvalho. Looking forward for new releases. Thank you. Respect.

maybe a fix for quick gps
Hello, this is maybe a fix for quick gps.
Install an task manager and terminate then "QuickGPS.exe". After this step maybe you can start it. This was a Problem from previouse Roms from TranMinhMan, but after this step it wokrs for me,
Baybe this trick works on this Rom too. I'll test it later.
Sry for my bad english.

New HD2/WM owner questions

Hello All,
I picked up my HD2 about a week ago and I must say this phone is sweet. This is my first touch screen phone and also wm phone. I have did some small cosmetic changes to it already (5x4 quicklinks; lock swipe at the bottom; brain's task bar and less sensitive touch screen). Still getting use to typing/texting on the screen.
What I wanted to ask was with all the themes, mods, hacks in here there are always things mentioned of what software versions it will work with. From what I gather (on my phone):
1. When I navigate to settings>all settings>system>about, it shows a "splash screen" of the version of WM. Is this where others have stated versions 6.5.x.? Also it displays CE OS 5.2.21869 (build 21869.5.0.82) Does this have any valid impact on what themes, etc can be used on the phone?
2. When I navigate to settings>about phone>software information, it lists a bunch of software versions. Which pieces of information should I be concerned about?
3. Finally, on the UK HTC website there are a bunch of updates and two ROMS. Should I or do I need to install all of them or should the latest ROM be sufficient?
My info:
Manila: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.48.405.2 (71294) WWE
ROM Date: 11/18/09
Radio: 2.05.51.05_2
Protocol: 15.28.50.07W
TIA
CE OS 5.2.21869 (build 21869.5.0.82) means WM6.5.0.
Most people just call this WM6.5 (although WM6.5.X is actually WM6.5 as well).
This has an impact on what Windows Mobile themes you can use (e.g. Livven's themes, or shadowline's).
Which pieces of information should I be concerned about?

The Manila (=Sense) version. On your phone, it's probably something like 2.5.1911xxxx, often referred to as "Manila 1911".
Should I or do I need to install all of them or should the latest ROM be sufficient?

Don't try to fix something that's not broken. However, the newest ROM (1.66) is supposed to resolve issues with SMS and improve the general speed.
Thanks for the quick reply freyberry.
How are people getting the "new" WM 6.5.X? I see no mention of it on M$ site.
What was wrong with SMS? I have had no problems out of the box with sending/receiving texts so far, short of the timestamp issue which a regedit fixed.
There's no official update to WM6.5.X (yet).
You can get it unofficially in the ROM section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
But make sure you first read all the tutorials! And I suggest you stay with the official ROM for a while, until you're familiar with the device.
Some people could not send SMS, but that didn't happen to everyone.
I noticed the Radio software from the above link that all end in 07U but mine has 07W. What's the difference?

[Q] Wich Windows 7 BUILD 7.0.7392.0 is better

Wich Windows 7 BUILD 7.0.7392.0 is better,stable, and have more future...?
Hi guys I find 3 roms thats looks are the most popular can you recomend me one , or If you know another rom let me know.
1)HD2Owner | v1.14 WP7 BUILD 7.0.7392.0
"HD2O© v1.14 WP7 BUILD 7.0.7392.0 NODO COPY&PASTE "
2)YukiXDA | V3 WP7 BUILD 7.0.7392.0
"When dark forces don't suck come an angel #7392 inside# [YukiXDA]"
3)xboxmod | XBmod-WP7-V1.11 7.0.7392
"XBmod-WP7-V1.11------[7.0.7392]---Nodo-"
I've used all three. My personal favorite is the one by HD2Owner but his isn't up-to-date. YukiXDA has discovered a handful of changes since that HD2Owner's 1.14 was released. Those changes are pretty important (removal of overlapping modules, for instance).
So, right now, I'm using YukiXDA's ROM. It's fast and with the right radios (2.12.50.02.20 and 5.51T) it gets great battery life.
Based on my experiences, HD2Owner's is the fastest, followed closely by YukiXDA's. The XBMod ROM is fine but I don't like the appearance so I'll likely never use that one again.
Oh, and one final point: I liked it when my HD2 was labeled as an HD7. YukiXDA's ROM makes it a Schubert...
using YukiXDA, liking it so far but its the first nodo build im using.
the "Schubert" name can be changed in settings.
So far I prefer the YukiXDA... though the Swedish keyboard isn't working... :-(
