Rooted, what can I do now?

Hi
I have rooted my X10 now and I wonder if there is anything cool stuff I can do now. Changing the UX or something like that.
Do you guys know anything I can do now as my phone is rooted?
Thank you.

can u pls explain wat u mean by rooting?

Thanks for answar.
Rooting is to have the administrative control on your phone.
You can control everything yourself.
Is it possible to get free apps on the phone that cost in the Market?
Like jailbreak you have installous.

there are some tutorials on youtube, but never tried them

I heard when you "root" your phone....you have complete control of it and you can set it so it makes you coffee in the morning....geez the things us non rooted users are missing out on

I've only got the Toast app, although it's a bit buggy, gives me jam when I want marmalade, I've emailed the developer but not heard back yet.

Duh!! That's cuz the toast app only works properly on 2.1 lol
It's limitations of 1.6 you can have jam.... 2.1 brings marmalade lol

Ahh that's why, thanks for the heads up, I'll just stick with jam for the time being then, and that probably explains why the dog walker app only picks up the lead and sits at the door.

even with rooting, you can't up it to 2.2 anyway, because bootloader isn't cracked yet, correct?

[Q] Dualboot: Windows Mobile & Android On Xperia X8

Sorry my ignorance, but is that possible to install both of the OS on a Xperia x8?
If it so, I would like to know how..
Thanks
(Sorry if my english isn't right, I'm portuguese.. xP)

At the moment impossible (I guess bootloader has to be cracked for that)
and the requirements for WP7 are higher. (For example at least 5MP camera...)

And how about WM 6.5? at least that.. xD

Why buy an Android phone if you want Windows mobile?

This thread is useless, Android >> WinMo 6.5

I love my xperia, thats why I don't what to buy other cell phone..
Anyway, it was just a question, don't blame me if I want to know something more about my phone.. xD

No, it is impossible to do on an android-based phone. You could try running ubuntu though, I'm sure there's a thread for that somewhere, not for the x8 specifically but you can attempt to do it on your phone, won't brick it or anything..

Possible but pointless and first someone has to crack se boot loader.
android is way better than windows

Pointless how? It'd be fun to try getting it working.

Froyo would be more fun
Only advantage from installing windows for me would be Automapa. Its a very good polish gps navigation software. Other than that I don't like windows mobile.

[Q] Froyo 2.2 fix camrecorder?

I had Froyo android 2.2 on Xperia X10i, and i astisfied with it
But only one thing i dont like by foryo 2.2 is camrecorder, rly need camrecorder.
It is possible to fix it?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

if there was a fix. you would know. it would be a big not hard to find announcement.
given how well this rom works, that minor problem is not even a problem
unless u use ur phone more for recording video than anthing else
in which case why not just use a real camcorder lol

You'll have to wait a little, to fix the camera

Okey, THnx
Btw do u guys know about Flash will available with cam?

Timescape

Hey guys
I updated to miniCM, and i would like the timescape/mediascape apps.
Can anyone supply me with them, or point me in the direction?

How about you start here.

Thank you very much, didn't know arc had timescape
Sent from my X8 using XDA App

Well thank me, there is a small button for that exact purpose.

I have a question... there are two possibilities 1. for "normal" and 2. for small one.
"XRECOVERY VERSION
Retail Arc Timescape Normal version (also compatibile with Wolfbreaks rom) (Installer) (Uninstaller)
Retail Arc Timescape LDPIv1 for LDPI/smaller screens download (Installer) (Uninstaller)"
which one is the right for x8 ?
Is the first one just for X10 and the 2. for X8/ mini /pro ?

Looks like neither work, couldn't someone rip it from stock rom
Sent from my X8 using XDA App

I could, but what's the point? It needs porting anyway.

As far as I know the LDPI version is for our handset, but there might be some incompatibilities since this is indeed a ported app.

You made my day I'm telling you that the apks from the stock ROM will be crushing on custom ROMs if you don't port them correctly and you say I'm slowing progress... what progress, are you eager to port those apks? If so, I can rip them and send you a package, just say a word...

does the ldp version work?

whee i badly want this app. I really love timescape. Gravier can you please port if in your most available time, if its ok? Pretty pretty please. Thanks x0x0

I use arc timescape but i dont really like it ... the x8 stock one is much better! Dawaj graveir prosze zrob to timescape bo z stock rom jest o niebo lepsza niz z arc ... proszeeee

Sure? i use it, and it function well, sms, facebook, twitter, all, it only sees a little pixeled.

Isn't the font a bit too big? does the text fit the tiles?

Both of them are not perfect. LDPI version the font is too big. Normal version the font is pixelate hardly can read. But for me it's not problem at all since I use timescape only for updating status on FB & Twitter
Oh, I use it on froyobread ROM and it works flawlessly no error at all

Thanks for replying. So which one is better for you? LDP or normal version? I'll install that one

wasnt wrong did a mistake while coping.

we just need a dev that can figure it out...

I asked them,
but Z answered:
This doesn't help us, the major problem for us is flashing a firmware into touch chip - we cannot do this. The current firmware won't allow to detect anything above buggy dual touch.
My_Immortal said:
As Z said, we need sources to modify libraries, so it's nothing of use at the moment.
Nice find though and thanks for letting me know!

I would kill for true dual-touch. Let alone multi-touch.

All we need is sources of the touch chip driver and rest devs like z will do.
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App

And how do you think we can install the driver(s) with a locked bootloader?
If I am not mistaken, we just need the bootloader to be opened and we can install the drivers. Also, I think he said, somewhere in this forum, he has found the driver but then again, he can't test it as the bootloader is locked.
