Hi all first post on this forum. Its a shame i cant post in "XPERIA X10 Android Development" as i don't have a post count of 10 "But i understand why that is" i would have liked to post thanks and report bugs in his thread for this rom.
Anyways just wanted to say thanks to jerpelea for all his work on Gingerbread 2.3.3 this rom is outstanding bar a coupe of random reboots.
This rom will be even better when he works out the Camera Photo/Video Issues anyway i got a couple of screen shots of it working on my X10i with a little but of theme tweaking.
Thanks again for all your hard work MacDaddyIRC Out.
Even i'm on post 2 so cant post in development.
Thanks a million for the CM!!
I 2nd that foreveralone. Alot better than the stock SE 2.1 i can't w8 for a Android 3.0 port for x10
Sent from my X10i CM7.0
I want to say Tks too
i would like to say thanks but there is an update from SE that they are bringing out the 2.3.3 gingerbread on the x10 either at the end of Q2 or start of Q3 of the year.
The point is, with the SE update we will able to use the CM mod completely using the SE kernal. Also, compared with the stock rom, the CM rom is more optimized for performance.
Or if the devs here can write a 2.3.3 kernal before SE does...that would be amazing =D

+1 I 100% agree, The SE roms do what they are supposed to but they dont perform like a modded rom.

Just in case. Its a free 6 month trial so it was free and my email got hacked and im not sure how so better to be safe than sorry.
Kaspersky is much better and its protection is better than other Mobile Av
At the end of the day I use these and test these roms and all have crashed or failed in one way or another and I'm not saying they should not be used but a stock rom is more reliable and safer to use. If there is a better rom then theres then I will use it. But I'm not risking bricking my phone for a rom that is not reliable from all bugs.

Also I am using a cyanogenmod at the moment on 2.2.1 froyo and they said the video cam works but everytime I go to use it, it FC and then can't find the cam but I still use it because it is better the the stock rom 2.1 eclair

Ok I really disappointed in the Xperia x10 development section.
The only usable Roms are based on 2.1. Now these roms are fantastic. Really do the job well and I would class them as fully operational.
Now the other threads based on 2.2,2.3,MIUI etc are indeed under development. Some excellent work going on and if the 3 Musketeers could only project manage then Im sure a full working rom would be achieved.
So really Im wondering why XDA does not have a full working rom section that allows noobs like myself to go to to download knowing its a fully tested working rom?
Now before the fanboys jump all over me I would state that I am a donator to worthwhile causes and development but seriously the roms released so far can in no way be advertised as stable enough for daily use. It is a phone after all....eg. In one prominent thread today a developer is congratulated for releasing a rom that cannot make a telephone call.......Yesterday one was congratulated for an update that doesnt allow the phone to even switch on!
I do notice in the majority of other areas of XDA there are plenty of full working roms for other devices. Im fully aware that SE's security on this device has so far made it impossible to cook a newer version of android without using old parts.
So perhaps the x10 forum sections do indeed need an area for full working roms. Id presume the developers would also like this so they can transfer there work to it when completed and in return be suitable rewarded for there efforts.
Your thoughts?
I'm releasing a gingerbread rom today with everything working! Oh hai jk guise nothing works lulz
On a serious note, free x10 has been great to me..only issue is camcorder, but it is otherwise perfect

Thanks for your reply. I did indeed try this ROM but I was getting way to many errors in my day to day use for it to be considered stable for daily use. I was also not keen on the support from developer. I believe he has been MIA now for a considerable time....
I do fully understand though that without that developer I would not have been able to do the majority of things I have done to my phone....Hopefully this ROM will one day be Fully working and can be classified as such...
Weird I have not had a single issue... I use my phone a lot too.
I've been using wolfbreaks 2.2.1 CM6.1.3 for about ten days and it's stable. No stock videocam but flash & apps2sd more than make up for it. Very quick and aesthetically pleasing.

Again tried and far from stable! Perhaps though that is where the issues arise....One mans stable is another mans manic!
My version of stable is a ROM that allows me to use all my hardware functions and reports no errors.....Just like stock....
Ever think maybe it's you? I've been keeping up with the free x10 thread and most people don't report errors other than the camcorder..
non working camera and videocam is a deal breaker for me, therefore still sticking with official.

Anyhow going slightly off topic when really the point is too see if anyone else thinks a section for fully working roms would be helpful?

If thats the one on V4....then i agree its really good. Besides no video recording it has been awesome. Probably my fav rom higher than 2.1.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I think it's a great idea, but it will be difficult because of the word "fully worked/stable" (what for one person is stable is not for another)
Sure you could put that section in but don't expect to see a single rom that is 2.2+ in there. I realistically as much as i hope I'm wrong don't expect to ever see one in there. This phone is pretty much at the end of it's run now and the bootloader is still locked with no intention from SE to unlock it due to certain copyrighted materials and the such. Sad but a fact i think we all need to start facing.
I almost think we're at the point where there is very little more that can be done other than variations of the same roms already available.
Please do not take this as a shot at the devs as i have much respect for the work they do and without them my phone wouldn't be half what it is today. But in my opinion its time to stop wishing and hoping for things that just aren't in the cards with this particular piece of hardware.
did you come here just to complain? atleast they are making something and wasting thier time for us stop moaning and if your unhappy then dont flash the roms otherwise be happy with what you get.

These kind of bugs are always reported about OFFICIAL ROMs also Just read every thread after every update from SE etc
I'm using [MOD][rendeiro2005]Cyanogen6.1.3_v01 (CM-updated) for many weeks now for my daily use... Working awesome... Camera works, just video-recording doesn't work properly... This is the only issue... ROM works like a charm

The FreeX10 (beta4) is still 2.2.1 (I'm using it as we speak, very stable, I can't complain). The only 2.3 ROM I've seen discussed for the SE Xperia x10 is Cyanogen CM7.0 RC1 v005 Gingerbread 2.3.3, which --based on current thread discussion, I haven't tried it myself-- appears to be very unstable at this time.
If there's another 2.3 ROM for the X10 circulating the forums, I haven't seen it. Then again, I haven't really looked through the entire thread.
great
I like what this was supposed to become but not what it s actually.
I'm also a new x10 user, I come from htc desire (z). and I was happy to see that it was far more easy to root the x10i and remove the root when the phone has to go for reparation.
It was not my intention to come and play with different roms, but deu to a wrong installation of a theme I had to instal a custom rom. Now, I like the stock X10 interface. so I'm looking for roms who runs better as the stock rom but look more or less the same...
any suggestions?

Not true. I don't have those issues, and neither does Eternity, Blue Sparks, etc.
I think this is a good idea, but in practice would fail. There are FAR too few "fully functional" ROMs to warrant a separate forum. Maybe we should just start using [STABLE] tags or something.
There would seriously be like 5 legit posts in that forum, and then it would get filled up with crap till it's unusable.
for u, i think the stock rom and the JIT mod will do it for u if u like the stock rom =)

This is including the camcorder/camera fix!! looks like we pretty much got a complete rom!
so it looks like the dev's got there first than SE. just like my bet, so... where's my money? =)
i know im soo happyy im just gonna be reassembling my x10 after physical damage done and yet ive turned this phone to new and now wih z's rom to finish this omggg... >_< 2.3 ill wait for it till it's good till then Z here i come the only thing that' it'd let it finish of from this rom is the browser gives me shortcut when u click extra options for example it'll show up as Setting then below it is (menu + S) we dont have that option can anyone fix that up or let us know how?
I just seen his new post.....now I gotta go check it out
As far as S.E.'s update is concerned i wouldn't even want it anymore after the hardwork of Z, Wolfbreak, J', 28spawn and them all. S.E. you lost me and now i trust our xda guys for life. Im gonna try to donate soon as ive been off've work and been disabled for a year now.
Does this include wifi tethering?

in android forums it does state 2.2 is wifi teethering so i see why not..but if someone can tell me about the browser id appreciate it,
I don't understand, 2.2 ROM's are longer then today available, i have a 2.2 ROM from Wolfbreak which i like very much.
any 2.2. rom can work with the fix from Z . so if you have wolfbreak's or R's or anyne's 2.2 rom it'll work...

Does Bluetooth work perfectly on this rom?
I've tested a few 2.2 ROMS and the bluetooth always plays up - or at least with the MW600.
Does WIFI connect automatically and quickly when in range? Even with bladefix i sometimes had to manually connect the phone to wifi which was a pita (with various 2.2 roms).
Also, is there any way to get TrackID to work on 2.2? It's probably S.Es best bundled app with the X10, and unmatched by anything else on the market.
There seems to be various levels of success with WiFi & BT amongst the community. I've had no problems with WiFi but the BT acts funny with my car deck. Bad enough that I can't use wolf's Rom. Which sucks since it's so damn fast.
But it depends on the device. My BT headset works fine.
Since it's so easy to backup/restore with Xrecovery give it a try. May work perfectly for you.

Not quite true...there's been a problem with it on Wolfbreak's ROM 'cause of some minor incompatibility issues with the different framework tweaks on his ROM compared to Z's ROM. So I'm guessing it wouldn't be working without problems on EVERY ROM if the devs don't play a lil' bit with it before that (like Wolfbreak is doin' in the last few hours to set it for his)
So, at the moment I have a Desire running CM7, and I LOVE it, I simply can't ask for more. However, upgrade day arrived today and I called Orange and ordered an S2. Read a few reviews of it beforehand and the specs just blow me away.
Any one have any useful advice from going to a Desire to a Galaxy?

FIRST THING when you receive your beast, flash 2.3.4 gingerbread. Excellent battery life and performance.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
I'd disagree when I flashed to 2.3.4 I could almost see the battery go down as I used it and instantly flashed back to 2.3.3
However a lot of people are getting better battery life so maybe you might be lucky but personally speaking stick to stock first see how you get on and then flash a new rom.
The official 2.3.4 should be out this month
2.3.4 is not a Samsung release only a leaked test rom .
Personally i would learn before flashing and be able to recover to stock/original firmware for warranty purposes .

Went from a Desire to the SGS2 and haven't looked back since. I think it's a great move. In contrast to what you read above, I'd recommend to stay stock for a while. Learn a little about touchwiz. TW is just as smooth, maybe even smoother, than CM7 on the Desire, believe me. There is really no advice to give, they are both great devices, but you will love the SGS2.
Upgrade
Upgrade to a custom rom, they are muuuch better, keeping in mind the warranty problems and such. I´m running a custom 2.3.4 and it´s perfect.
How about the issue on gaming? Does 2.3.4 got better game support?

I was a flash addict on sgs, unfortunately there is no need to root+/- flash on this device and its annoying me a lot
So I was wondering, The x10 is flash compatible.. runs smoothly - even on High quality. Why does it get filtered from the Market? Is this just me? or is it physically Sony Ericsson just trying to prevent it from being installed?
After hearing about the GB2.3.3 update I plugged in my phone for an update and just rushed through it not reading that it was 2.1 and installed it, now I want to use Flash cause I don't see the point in sorting out a ROM/root even with the backup if It's just going to be updated again in an Apparent up coming days.. I will admit I am quite curious on the SE GB update But want to install flash on here in the mean time.. ;/
TL: DR
I bought x10 after x8, rooted asap.. installed custom rom.. searched market for flash. Installed it, flash content available. "Updated"/Installed stock using PCC searching android market for "Adobe Flash Player" Yields no results.. Why? ¬_¬
what rom did you install because Adobe Flash is only for 2.2+
thats probz why you cant find it on the market
Wow.. I knew this as well. I feel stupid -.-'
For some reason I thought I was on 2.2 because the "next" step is 2.3.. but Ah well, I blame Sony Ericsson? xD
haha i think all are making us wait for our beloved gingerbread, i can hear my X10 crying because its so hungry poor little guy
Argh! I know right According to thread here on XDA I should be getting it on Friday... Damn having to wait :/
Also, why would the "HDR" camera (Free APP) Be not available for S/E? When I was on a custom ROM I installed the APP but it said it couldn't access certain features needed, I assumed this was because of the Custom ROM?

No offense but this is just a third party website. They don't even mention the source of these rumors. Nothing has been stated by samsung so far so there's no need to cry. To be honest I don't think that 4.0.4 will be some revolutionary step forward and thus I don't understand why we shouldn't get this update.

I agree, auto brightness on CM/AOSP/AOKP roms is still far away from perfect, which makes our beloved and very dark S AMOLED+ practically unusable (outdoor) on sunny days.
Also Apex, Nova, etc don't measure up to TW Launcher in terms of smoothness.
