[Alpha Release] xWildFireMini 2.1 v0.2b - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hello,
This is the my port of the Wildfire 2.1 Eclair Rom for the Mini.
I chose Eclair because the drivers will probably be easier to find like this, you can expect a 2.2 Sense rom to come once the 2.2 AOSP is done.
[Download v0.2a Here]
[Download v0.2b Update]
Flash them is this order.

Developer Notes:
Developer Notes:
Any Dev interested for testing all my future releases for the mini?
I ask developers for help to try out finding how to get the drivers for the non-working hardware parts to work. Simply said, you need to copy drivers from the SE 2.1 build to this build and report if it worked and which files were used.

Changelog:
v0.2a is up! Prepared the system for future drivers, little faster, ext4 support for apps2sd. Also for the mini fixed xrecovery thanks to peetr_
v0.2 Alpha is up! Fixed a lot: SD, Touchscreen, xRecovery, OpenGL
v0.1 Technical Preview / Pre-Alpha released for developers.

dang you are using same device..
i did try same thing but with clean wildfire [didn't get very far tho] [becouse work on kitchen] ... will download this too and see...

Problems on boot.
Or better no boot at all.
I made a full wipe, flashed the .zip and then these commands:
PHP:
adb shell
cd /system/bin
/system/bin/chmod 755 busybox
./busybox --install -s /system/xbin
./busybox --install -s /system/bin
After that reboot and stuck on Sony Ericsson white letters.
tried the mount command too but still no luck
PS: Something weird though. Xrecovery still working on me!

Thanks for the info! This means I have to rebuild the ramdisk to have it work on the x10 mini. Oh one thing I forgot to state is that this NEEDS an ext2 partition on the sdcard (apps2sd not removed yet) and that the first boot will take ages stuck on the bootscreen since it's copying all apps over.
Could you adb pull system/bin/chargemon, open the file in notepad and send the content to me? Of the installed rom, that is.
In the update.zip package there is both an chargemon and chargemon~ file left over from text editing it with Ubuntu. Problem is that I can't acces the file through Nautilus (Ubuntu's version of Windows Explorer)

Hi, i also tried your work and i have the the same state as DarkDog with xRecovery working.
Tried the "logcat" :

Seems like something goes really wrong here....
Mby because the wrong ramdisk or something.
@peetr try to give the "mount" and "ls /system/xbin" commands, mby found something..

Ah yes.. I'll update the commands, you need to
PHP:
adb shell
cd /system/xbin
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
/system/bin/chmod 755 busybox
cd /system/bin
/system/bin/chmod 755 busybox
./busybox --install -s /system/xbin
./busybox --install -s /system/bin
Can you see if that works?

Good job ! Up and running

Thanks, but I understand that it's booting now on the mini?
The commands that you have to run after installing are updated, would you mind giving it a try?

I think you can write in the first post, that its working on mini. And that we have to install busybox before leaving xrecovery.
But i must say again, it is too slow in this alpha version. Hope it can be faster in later versions.

Try out the Alpha please, should be a tad faster since I've fixed openGL

Well i wait for some updates, then I'm gonna try it
Nice work tho, keep it up !

can you please remove the app2sd so i am able to test it because right now i have an ext3 on my sd card and i am missing my adapter!!! Or at least someone provide a method convert to ext2 mounted from the device e.g. from ubuntu?? Can i do it this way???

First thing, you have to change chargemon to event1 for mini

busybox and custom roms

Hi,
since a few days I have my first andriod mobile the HTC Hero. I have rooted it and everything works fine.
However, I found several interesting images for the G1 (JesusFreke or CyanogenMOD and so on). I suppose that they will not run on the HTC Hero :-( (yet). Sombody know if there is someone working on it? A google search is not that easy because the most roms are based on the HTC Hero sence and so you can easy find 100 hits with hero but all roms are not for the hero itself.
Does somebody have busybox running on the hero? I searched for a while but found nothing Hero specific. My first try to use a exiting manual for G1 did not work without problems. The most manuals are old and suggest to use a custom rom which include busybox.
Maybe someone has a hint for me
I want to test debian but the istaller use cp and so on. So busybox is a good starting point.
Cheers
Visios
download the attachment (busybox taken from cyanogen's rom), extract busybox and copy it to sdcard, then (if you have root):
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
dd if=/sdcard/busybox of=/system/bin/busybox
chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

tx for your info and the extracted busybox bin. It worked without any problem.
Do you have tried to use busybox install and export the path ?

Help please
Yeah, I could google it but I'll just ask here instead, busybox - what's it good for?
It provides a lot of the standard Linux/Unix utilities - such as cp, rm, df, ls, ps, grep, etc. The toolbox program provided in the HTC ROM is a "crippled" replacement for busybox and doesn't have some of the functionality. For example, Market Enabler doesn't work with the stock ROM because toolbox doesn't provide the grep utility.

Does anybody know what version of Busybox is in the original post?
And if I want to upgrade, should I just follow the instructions over again with the newer version?

on a command line on your pc. this is not the right place to start for you, get a guide on how to setup adb on your pc first.
Wow. "abd". That's a new term now isn't it.
Ok. I'll skip it. Just looking to control my Samsung Moment on my PC like I was able to with my WM phones.
I'll keep looking around. Thanks for the help.

Superuser.apk

I have successfully installed a Superuser.apk but it does not seem to be working properly. Titanium reports that Su does not elevate to root.
I have debugging enabled and I have connected through adb shell but nothing seems to work.
Anyone have any success? If so, which version did you use?
Here is my method
I download 2nd link from here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828
After unzip (E:\Android\ROOT\step4\ directory for my example) :
adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
adb push E:\Android\ROOT\step4\system\bin\su /system/bin/su
adb shell chmod 6777 /system/bin/su
adb install E:\Android\ROOT\step4\system\app\Superuser.apk
adb reboot
trying this now, will report
thanks a lot works like a charm..
i can confirm this works perfect
very good... spread 30min to install it yesterday night...
Will be included in new version. Sorry just forgotten

Bin4ry
You make very good job so no problem for that
Thank a lot for your hard work !

I am trying to do same thing with mediascape , but I get error
"Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]", I am reading on google that its something related to the .odex file, how can I install/or whatever I have to do in order to be able to put mediascape back.
I know I just could restore and than root again and remove rm command for mediascape from ch file, but I am trying to remove more branding apps of telenor firmware and flash and root again with clean system.
PS: Messing with my phone as I don't have any knowledge in programming...just google.
Thx
Hi
You can try to do this :
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
cd /system/app
cp /sdcard/apps/mediascape* .
cp /sdcard/apps/MediascapePluginManager* .
reboot

One thing can anyone explain what this lines of code mean(Jerpelea's mediascape restore), each separate if u can, I am trying to understand. As I said I am no programmer but I like to learn.
Thanks.
I've tried doing this 4 times... and it's not working ^^;;
Is it missing a step? Or is this all that I need to do?
I get no errors when doing it yet the program isn't working a shown in the screens realunited... ^^;

X8 Custom ROM

Because propoff2 got himself banned, I've decided to re-create his threads for you, hopefully with easier to follow instructions than before.
X8 Android 2.1-rus
X8 Android 1.6
Modified Image (x8.img)
Data.img
Busybox, Rootshell, Chargemon
(If for whatever reason any of the above links don't work, scroll down and see propc's post.)
Before moving on, decide whether you want to boot the rom from the sdcard or from the internal memory, then use the correct instructions to do so.
If you've tried this method and REALLY don't like the customized rom, then see this thread for how to install a clean, pre-rooted rom!
==BOOTING CUSTOM ROM FROM SD==
Before you begin, put chargemon, busybox, rootshell, x8.img and data.img onto the sdcard.
1. Flash 1.6 firmware to the phone.
2. Root the phone.
3. Copy the files rootshell, chargemon and busybox to /system/bin
(You can do this by putting the files on the sdcard, and using a file manager such as root explorer to copy the files into /system/bin. Command line instructions will be here soonish. This guide is still a WIP).
4. Chmod the files.
Code:
chmod 4755 /system/bin/rootshell
chmod 755 /system/bin/busybox
chmod 777 /system/bin/chargemon
5. Copy both x8.img (/system) and data.img (/data) to the sdcard.
6. Flash 2.1 kernel using this flashing utility. (The GUI version is perfectly fine to use.)
Remember to remove system.sin and userdata.sin from the flash files!
7. Reboot and hope it works.
==BOOT CUSTOM ROM FROM INTERNAL MEMORY==
Before you being, copy x8.img and busybox on to the sdcard.
1. Follow steps 1-2 from the instructions above.
2. Copy busybox to /data/local/tmp
Code:
cd /data/local/tmp
cat /sdcard/busybox > /data/local/tmp/busybox
3. Chmod busybox.
Code:
chmod 755 busybox
4. Using busybox, remount /system as rewriteable.
Code:
./busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
./busybox sh
5. Mount x8.img.
Code:
./busybox mkdir /data/local/tmp/1
./busybox losetup /dev/block/loop1 /sdcard/x8.img
./busybox mount -t ext2 -o rw,noatime,nodiratime /dev/block/loop1 /data/local/tmp/1
6. Remove the contents of /system. ADVICE: Remove the folders one by one, leave /system/bin and /system/app last! That way your phone is less likely to crash whilst doing this step. DO NOT TRY AND USE YOUR PHONE WHILE DOING THIS, YOUR PHONE IS CERTAIN TO CRASH! Make sure the phone is locked.
Code:
./busybox rm -rf /system/media
./busybox rm -rf /system/usr
./busybox rm -rf /system/etc
./busybox rm -rf /system/lib
./busybox rm -rf /system/xbin
./busybox rm -rf /system/framework
./busybox rm -rf /system/fonts
./busybox rm -rf /system/drm
./busybox rm -rf /system/build.prop
./busybox rm -rf /system/app
./busybox rm -rf /system/bin
7. Now copy the files into the phone's internal memory. Again, we have to copy these over one by one, as the phone WILL run out of memory during this process! Most important files go first.
Code:
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/bin /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/xbin /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/etc /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/usr /system/
./busybox cp -prf /data/local/tmp/1/build.prop /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/lib /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/framework /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/fonts /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/drm /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/media /system/
./busybox cp -prfR /data/local/tmp/1/app /system/
Hopefully you won't run out of space until you try and copy /app over. No worries! Your phone will still start, and you can easily restore those files after.
8. Flash the 2.1 kernel, and userdata.
Unlike in the previous instructions, you only want to remove system.sin from the flash files! Put userdata.sin back if you've removed it!
9. Turn on your phone and just hope you didn't mess up!
==APPS ON SD==
See this thread: App2SD Mod (Moves dalvik cache to SD) Instructions
ARGH!! MY PHONE IS STUCK IN A ETERNAL REBOOT? WHAT DO I DO?!
Well, if you know for sure what you did, and don't fancy reflashing all over again, then just plug in your phone and use adb to shell into the phone. Quickly fix the problem before the phone reboots!
Just putting this out there: These instructions were roughly written up. If you're having issues, don't be afraid to ask! If you spot any mistakes, please let me know! I'll expand on these instructions later.
All credits go to pulpoff2, for figuring out this solution, and propc for re-uploading the files, discovering steps 6 and 7 in the internal memory instructions, and for helping me fix these instructions multiple times.
Thank you! I will try this as soon as the files are available.
Are there any downsides? Is everything working as before? What about the speed (when loading apps for example)?
Yes, there are a few downsides. While booting from the sdcard, you cannot mount the sdcard via the phone (you'll need to use a card reader, or push/pull files with adb). There may be some performance issues while booting from the sdcard aswell. The camera and the music player also don't work.
However, if you decided to put the rom into the phone's internal memory, all this is fixed! Absolutely no downsides. Unless you don't like the theme, then I guess that is a downside.
thanks for making a new thread, thread pulpoff2 was hacked by ****-arsehole people! maybe.
I don't think so. The site that he used to host the files has been redirected to an anti-muslim site, by the looks of it.
aktw
Thanks man! Really appreciate it! Now I just need your tut for internal memory. Thanks again!
ML
Edit: Can you add app2sd tutorial?
Much more concise internal flashing (for anyone who wants it)
Code:
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp
cat /sdcard/ext/bin/busybox > /data/local/tmp/busybox
chmod 755 busybox
./busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
./busybox sh
/data/local/tmp/busybox mkdir /data/local/tmp/1
/data/local/tmp/busybox losetup /dev/block/loop1 /sdcard/x8.img
/data/local/tmp/busybox mount -t ext2 -o rw,noatime,nodiratime /dev/block/loop1 /data/local/tmp/1
/data/local/tmp/busybox rm -r /system
/data/local/tmp/busybox cp -prf /data/local/tmp/1/* /system
There, the internal memory instructions are up.

Sorrry, I'll edit the OP. What I mean is, flash the 2.1 firmware, but without the files system.sin and userdata.sin (if your doing the sdcard method). This is basically flashing the 2.1 kernel only. Hang in there, the files will be available for download soon.
The custrom rom does not have timescape. You may have to restore ALL apps as there are some missing that will prevent you downloading your providers settings. I'm not sure which it is, so my solution is restoring them all. :-S

What is this custom ROM I keep reading about? What exactly is different there, except for the theme? I would like to see a screenshot of the theme, btw. Is JIT enabled?
Uhh. Probably not. The difference is just the theme, and root on 2.1. Because you can't get root any other way, if I'm not mistaken.

My guess is that you didn't mount the x8.img properly?
Or my cp command could be wrong. OH! Don't copy each app one by one, just the folders!
Don't put /* at the end! That means you are copying the contents of the folder! You want the entire folder on /system !
Ok, this means we have to use this customized ROM to gain root. Thanks for clarifying.

Farsi/arabic support (connecting the arabic letters together)

Froyo can show arabic letters but they are not connected ,any APK to support Arabic letters and connect the letters together ?
thanx in advance
I second this...
Patch your system with Streakdroid 1.7
Copy framework.jar from system\framework
patch it using arabic scripter from ce4arab Add the new framework.jar on Streakdroid 1.7 zip file then do master reset and patch it again
copy libwebcore.so to lib ( you will get it from the same page)
you will get connected letters
Jattal, Have you got a link to the arabic scripter?
how do u patch?

I would just like to add that most people are getting "cp not found error"
use the following commands after rooting and installing busybox
NOTE: what you download from the market is busybox installer... you will have to run it and then install busybox
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
busybox cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
busybox cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
busybox rm /system/app/*.odex
busybox rm /system/framework/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
sync
reboot
Hope this helps.

Can this be done via root explorer thanks.
Unfortunately it cannot because your device will shutdown on changing the files and it won't be able to boot. The reason why the above commands work is that they freeze your phone in current state while the files are copied and deleted.
However as some adb commands do not run on android 2.2, you need busybox.
Sorry for the late reply, but I wasn't available for a while.

[Q] OPENVPN Wolfbreak CM 6.1.3 V5 problem

ok..so ive recently flash my X10i stock 2.1 eclair to Wolfbreak CM 6.1.3 v5
and im having problems regarding my Openvpn settings.
**cant check my config files
so what i did is to follow the old thread regarding the old openvpn settings for eclair and issue this following command on terminal emulator
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
busybox insmod /sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/openvpn /system/xbin/openvpn
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/openvpn /system/xbin/tun.ko
chmod 700 /system/xbin/openvpn
mkdir /system/xbin/bb
busybox ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/ifconfig
busybox ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/route
busybox mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/chargemon /system/bin/chargemon
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/busybox /system/bin/busybox
reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then my X10i will reboot and will start acting up. Force close keeps on popping and the device will automatically restart.
ive used those command when i used 2.1 eclair before and everything is working fine.
if anyone could enlighten me about this will be a great help.
also if you need other info, you can pm me or reply to my post.
this is my old working settings when i used eclair.
1.rooting my phone
2.install busy box
3.install terminal emulator
4.install openvpn application
5.install openvpn settings
6. issue this command in terminal
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
busybox insmod /sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/openvpn /system/xbin/openvpn
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/openvpn /system/xbin/tun.ko
chmod 700 /system/xbin/openvpn
mkdir /system/xbin/bb
busybox ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/ifconfig
busybox ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/route
busybox mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock2 /system
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/chargemon /system/bin/chargemon
busybox cp /sdcard/openvpn/busybox /system/bin/busybox
reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
7.open the config file and wait for it to connect.
but those above mention steps doesnt work anymore in 2.2 froyo cm 6.1.3 of wolfbreak
tried it and my phone starts acting up.
reflash again, this time openvpn settings is the only application i installed because as far as i know, wolfbreak custom rom is already been rooted and includes busy box and openvpn application but no luck..
help please.
Hi There!
I think you've followed my old thread so i've made this very same codes work on every Froyo Modded ROM... Wolfbreak already have the openvpn binary installed in /system/xbin so you'll have to do 1 extra step.
1.- Open Terminal Emulator and issue this comand
Code:
rm -r /system/xbin/openvpn
mkdir /system/xbin/bb
ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/ifconfig
ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/xbin/bb/route
cp /sdcard/openvpn/tun.ko /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
chmod 644 /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
2.- Download OpenVPN installer from Market (Free)
3.- Click on Install and choose the following options and you'll see two screens:
3.1 - In the first one choose "/system/xbin"
3.2 - In the Second one choose "System/xbin/bb"
4.- Go to OpenVPN settings and go to Advanced>TUN module Settings>Path to tun module> This should be /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
5.- Choose your OpenVPN configuration and you'll be done.
Report back if this helps... At least i've test it in the following ROMS:
* Trip's MIUI Roms
* Wolf's CM Roms (all Variants)
* Zdizihu's Free X10
* Jerpelea's CM 7 GB Roms
thanks mate for the reply,
anyway, i somehow manage to fix the above mention problem and somehow got my config file to get connected using the above post.
but everytime it get connected, a lot of errors occur.
1.force closed.... .....
2.linux....error....... .....fork error...
i cant remember the whole error message because it only pops up for a bit.
tried to reflash twice but to no avail, same results hapen.
so i gave up and flash back to 2.1 kx10 aosp and everything is working again..
