Launcher pro and the X10 mini/mini pro ? - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Looking at the x10 mini pro for my old man.
ticks many boxes
android
small
full qwerty
but not fond of Sonys UI
So could anyone test launcher pro from the market on one and post screen shots or stills please ?

when you go to x10 mini apps forum, you see launcher pro only works on android 2.1 and not android 1.6

swype on X10 mini

Is it possible to use swype or a swype-clone on the X10 mini?
I want to buy the X10 mini, but I'm worried that my texting speed will go down A LOT when using a touch screen.
I try it on X10 mini:
The Swype Beta is not aviable for this phone's screen size
Hi
You can use slideit, try on my X10 mini and works, but to be honest on this small screen you'd better use a normal qwerty keyboard like anysoftkeyboard, cause personnaly I find that "slide" on this little surface is not really comfortable.

You could always go for the Mini Pro instead.

Hey thanks for the tip. I installed Anysoftkeyboard and it's works like a treat! I set it as the default keyboard. It's very accurate and it works excellent with Co-pilot.

No does not work. I installed Swype and it will install properly but when you start the app it says "your resolution is not supported" and then the keyboard does not load. Had to uninstall it. I use Better Keyboard app as my keyboard and it is very good.
Better keyboard is one of best integrated to X10 Mini
I had many problems with swipe, is the worst
I'm using this version ... View attachment Swype-2.6.47-QVGA-_PT_BR.apk
sorry my english
yea. I'd been using swype on my mini pro over a few months now and it worked great.
Initially you have to get used of it and slowly you got the hang of it nicely.

[Q] Launcher Pro not working on X10 mini/mini pro [ANSWERED]

Hi fellow X10 mini (pro) owners
We already know that there are problems with finding all apps and games, as most won't show in the market.
But now I want to install Launcher pro (which i found on their website) and it can't be installed.
Is there a way to change things to apps that they can be installed or is this a really a screen size problem for which it won't work?
Anybody els tried to install it?
It is only made for Android 2.1 and 2.2.
X10 is 1.6 (Donut).

thx guys, fair enough.
I should have known, but I'm so used to having 2.1 on my HTC hero now that I forgot that there was an older android on some phones.

Me too
try adwlauncher, works awesome on my X10mini
its free and you can download it on the market
have fun
I use Home++ beta which also works very good.
I recommend HelixLauncher Donut - works great
ADW and Helix works perfect.SlideScreen is interesting but need improve.
Well... Proclaiming that Helix Launcher works perfect is somewhat of an overstatement...
It brings two nice additions to the table:
1 - Several widgets on one screen (Allthough it is impossible to achieve good looks in doing this, since most widgets are not well adapted to the small screen)
2 - All apps on one long page in the drawer...
Everything else is equal or worse than the original SE homescreen. It is a little bit more laggy than the original (sometimes - definately not noticably smoother/faster at least), and you loose functionality like beeing able to uninstall app's easily (two-click operation on original) which you will be doing alot when playing around in the market...
If the 2.1 update from SE adds theme'ing, multiple widgets and the possibility of a one-page app drawer, then there will be no point in installing these third party home screens for any other reason than adding a little fiddle-around-effect.
But... Who needs a better reason anyway? Check them all out, that's what I say )
Just to let you know, I have x10 mini pro and it works like a charm! It actually made my phone just x100 time more beautiful and useful.

Smart Keyboard Pro

I made a request to the developer of Smart Keyboard Pro to add a full screen mode in portrait like the x10 Mini stock keyboard.
I thought this would be a worthwhile addition for us x10 Mini users as we can use the Smart keyboard Pro in the same way as the stock keyboard.
Any way after beta testing, the latest version 3.8.0 now has this feature included.
Hope you find this update as useful as I have.
I can't get it, when i'm going to pay, some error ocurred ... when paypal on Android? gR!
Thanks for the notice!
You can just download it from the Market.
I got it finally! I really love it, it's the best keyboard and also with that option is a MUST in our mini.
is it better than anysoft keyboard?
anysoft is free.. =p
im using anysoft, also, it has a portuguese dictionary
I tried most of them (including anysoft keyboard) and I still with my Keyboard Pro... at least for x10 mini (and for me) it's the best, it works really fast, just that i want.
SmartKeyboard pro is the best on x10mini , its faaaaaast!!
Now we need someone to create a blue x10 skin.
dexilog.com/smartkeyboard/forum/viewforum.php?f=13&sid=1ffc9a6011b9682b99657b781dd696a6
I've had a go but I'm rubbish at things like that.
Good idea , let me see , its complicated though

[Q] Xperia X10 Keyboard on a X10 mini?

Hi
Is it possible to use the keyboard that are on the X10 on a X10 mini?
Anders
mmmh i really don't know but my advice would be buy and install smart keyboard pro on the market.
I find the original keyboard on the mini really crappy and smart keyboard was the really first thing i installed so as to have a full keyboard, fully configurable.

[req] new Xperia mini/pro launcher

Hello I was wondering if anyone could get their hands on the new launcher for the newly released xperia minis? its the same screen resolution as the x8 and the arc launcher (also 2.3) works on the x8 so installing this one on it shouldnt be a problem and it looks so cool
thanks!

those ph
ones are not released yet.wait till august
im waiting for this launcher too! think it should work on the X10 mini pro too ?!?!?! maybe they don't forgett to support the smaller screen resolution...
...320x240 is not so much, the go launcher ex works great there but the app depot or "5 keys in dock bar" are designed for bigger screens.. its not so easy to work with one finger on this small stuff......
ps: a "4 corner mini docks" instead of the 5-keys-dock-bar for go launcher ex would be greeeaaaaaaaatt!!!
..and a 3x3 or so size in the app depot view .........
...or just the basic x10 mini pro launcher with multiple widgets at one screen + resizeable widgets.......
