hi, was wondering if there's a theme or mod that will add the interface like TimeScape, MediaScape from xperia (or Rachael UI). pretty slick but haven't found it anywhere.
Thanks.
If nobody decides to copy it i'm sure a few months down the line when the devide is rooted someone will work on importing the interface to the Desire.
thanks
The only thing I have to do then is just wait, as myself I don't have the phone and neither the knowledge .
Thanks.
we'll have to wait till' the x10 get android 2.1 update
so is there anything happening with this?
I doubt it since I'm pretty sure the Xperia is expecting a 2.1 update which hasn't arrived yet.. besides the UI for the Xperia is Timescape which sorta sucks compared to anything else you can get on the Desire. For example, if you want something simple then go with MIUI or if you want something advanced then go with a copy of SenseHD

timescape is a better feature in comarison, in my opinion, plus HD roms dont have cams...so any help to port the timescape to desire would be awesome.
Ive been hoping some X10 features would be ported since i played with one, but its probably similar to getting Sense widgets on AOSP roms.

I recently asked Sony Ericsson for an Xperia X8 2.2 an official update, I was not expecting a reply but they did.
Thank you for contacting the Sony Ericsson support centre.
We can advise the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini, Mini Pro and X8 were all tested on Android 2.2 but did not improve the handset but rather diminished it as it started to run slower and crashed frequently which will not have improved the user experience.
The decision was then made to keep these handsets on Android 2.1 as they were originally designed to go up to Android 2.1 and no further, however as Android 2.2 was requested by our users the handset was tested.
Once we were able to update the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 to Android 2.3 we then also tested the Xperia X10 Mini, Mini Pro and X8 with this Android platform, however it again diminished the handset.
Sony Ericsson decided to keep these handsets on Android 2.1 so the handset would perform at its highest. As advised we will continue to release system updates for the handset to try and improve it as much as possible, however this will not be performed by updating the Operating System to Android 2.2 or 2.3.
We can only apologise for the inconvenience caused and will ensure your feedback is passed on to the relevant department to be looked into.
For further information on Sony Ericsson products, services and support please visit sonyericsson.com.
Should you require any further assistance then please do not hesitate to respond to this email or call our customer support on 08705 237 237.
Kind Regards,

Hmmmm..........I'm pretty sure the custom made by devs don't crash I'm guessing they can't be bothered.
The reason is simple: they don't want to upgrade OS for us because that upgrade doesn't bring them profit.
It (the above reply) is just a way to fool noob users to stay with 2.1 happily.

TRUE!
Please someone who knows english flawlessly reply to SE:
If you found out 2.2 is diminishing the phone, then why does the ported 2.2 (2.3)
ROMs faster, than the original SE 2.1 soft with X8?
P.S.: If you need good programmers, browse at XDA...

Wonder what will be the answer (if there is any...).

Why don't you reply to them? Attach links to custom roms including 2.2 and 2.3 on this forum and ask if they are idiots or they have idiot developers? Ask exacley what they tested, what doesn't work, what exacley what is slow, ask when they are planinig updates, what kind of updates...
Be stupid and BOTHER THEM with question =)
If few individuals can make [email protected], I still wounder how big companie such as SE can't do it.
I agree with post above > no money -no new android. So much for customer service.
I'm guessing i won't be buying another SE anytime soon, aldough I realy liked the brand.
Yeah, android 2.2 and 2.3 used to crash on X8's stock kernel. If they modified the kernel for the newer version of android it would have stopped crashing. But I guess they took a look at it, decided it's too much of a work for them, and dumped the project in order to focus on newer phones
As for slowing down - if drivers were meant for 2.1 of course it slowed down. If they made a proper 2.3 update for X8 it would run smooth as baby's ass.
Bullshitters.
i have a bit....
we all know hardware of W8 is the same of X8
after coming update 2.2 or 2.3 for W8 (not our X8) send them this request with this silly answer
when they say again :
we then also tested the Xperia X10 Mini, Mini Pro and X8 with this Android platform, however it again diminished the handset.

sony ericsson just want us to buy new phones. why can a cutom rom handle 2.2/2.3? SE is stupid
oh my
I think that don't want update the android version .. Simple =/
hi
Fo r me they won't do it because tmost of the people now are practical if they upgrade the
phones with cheaper value the sales of phones with cheaper value will increase but the phone with higher value will decrease in sales

Very True. Now we have ICS running very smooth.
I think the 2.2 roms that are running smooth here, are because they have no additional software running in the background. If you have SE software running in the background and SE apps installed, of course it will be slow.

First of all, what about people like me without Facebook?
Second, how often do Facebook polls actually yield results?
Could not find the play on that list
could not find play on the list either, but man do I miss MIUI from my incredible.
there is no Xperia Play but vote for X10, once the x10 has miui it wont be to difficult to port it to Play/Arc/Neo
X10 has miui roms. I used to use one about 6 months ago when I had it

What is MIUI?

Google MIUI, or YouTube search it. It is Chinese based Android ROM that kind of a blend of iOS features and Android. The Theming and be able to change every single aspect of MIUI make it the number one desired ROM all on ANDROID PHONES. The INFUSE phones just got the ROM yesterday. First someone has to PORT CM7 over, then MIUI is possible. One you use a MIUI ROM, it is very hard to return to stock. I have it on my X10 mini, Captivate and Infuse, just waiting for it for my PLAY!

Which is why Miui is pronounced my-UI
I really hope MIUI comes to the play! Its the whole reason I would root my phone.
Am I missing something? I don't see the Play in that poll?
îWhaat?
nerds like me got no facebook account google is the king. and first of all, we need an stable cm7!!
Hi fellow Xplay users!
This is a thread to compare, discuss, what is the best or quite probably the optimum ROM-kernel combo for Xplay
Please, discuss and compare anything related to the edge of custom roms and kernels with each other
Since I have no experience to flash the custom ROMs and kernels(except DooM’s) by our developers here, so to start with..
What are the advantage/disadvantages/pros/cons of
latest official SE firmware + DoomLord’s kernel VS. Cyanogenmod + DooMlord’s kernel for CM7?
For me, im using the latest 2.3.4 R800i firmware + DoomLords kernel, and I’d say its doing great, what are the things CM7(or other rom) has to offer for Xperia play that would make me want to flash it? Just to make it another android phone out there?
Don’t get me wrong Ive used CM7 before, just not on Xplay (on my old Glaxy5) so I know the basic features, and I know its great, but whats in store for the XPlay?
And if somebody is kind enough to answer this question..
I really love the look and feel of Xperia play and the Sony ericcsson home, its gives its own unique flavour being a PS-certified android device, but the tweaks for CM7 is great, and is less on bloatware, now DoomLord powering the kernel for it too makes it perform better.
Can I extract the .apk files of Xperia Play app, Sony ericsson Home, playstation pocket from the latest firmware and install it to CM7? Just like that and it works like magic? A CM7 rom with Xperia Play feel? When I slide down the controller will the Xperia Play app work together with Get games? How about playstation pocket?
Is it possible for a custom ROM development merging the look and feel of Xperia Play to CM7 Rom?
Thanks!
previous roms
Metaphorically this should work. After using an android Rom on the HTC hd2 with the Sony home screen as far as I could see this had seemed to be what they did.

what do you think about this ???
can you port the rom in x10i???
there is even the camera
mmmmm... I see this rom yesterday for my little X8, and I don't undestand why camera is working in X8, and not in X10.. Last update in x8 from sony is 2.1..
X10 need petetitions of code and libraries from sony to do camera work, and X8 no???
They do something different to do working camera??
nobody is able to do it?
(not me xD I would do it if I were able )
