Is it possible to add dsp and Ultra Brightness to stock 2.1 rom?
Sorry but dsp cannot be added to the stock 2.1 rom, as for ultra brightness i dont know for sure but i think that its also not possible.
The stock sony ericsson rom is very limited and its not very nice once you've tried using friends who have the xperia mini pro(sk17i), gingerbread rom is much easier to use and more organized than eclair rom
Or maybe if you are willing than you can try out custom roms such as GingerDX, Flame.GDX ICS, FroyoBread, MiniCM7Pro, Sony Style, etc.
If you wanna get more crazy than you can check out MiniCM7, PrimeHD, FireDroid 2.1, etc
P.S.-If you dont know about rooting, flashing roms, bootloader, custom kernel etc than you better get started on studying it and sorry i cnt find a proper link to the guide for all this and i gotta go somewhere so i'm in a bit of a hurry
I have MiniCM7-2.2.0 because i need these two things but i prefer to have original rom with timescape with every launcher i want, better camera, better battery FOR ME etc.
unfortunately if it is not possible i will stay with a custom rom

Hello Guys i am a proud owner of the x10i and i am forever flashing with custom roms. I am sure you are aware that Gingerbread has been released for the xperia models and like with the x10i is anyone going to take the stock rom and tweak it to be faster than normal. My girlfriend hates her x10 mini pro and i am trying to help her like it as she cannot upgrade until January.
Thanks in advance guys

Ps i ask for a tweaked stock rom as she would like all features to work if at all possible
I'm aware of 2 Eclair ROMs for the mini pro
Sony Ericsson W8 E16i Port
Iridium rom (U20i)
I just made my own custom 2.1 ROM in a couple of hours time using dsixda kitchen.
Base ROM : 2.1.C.0.0
Modifications:
-removed a ****load of apps/games/services/wallpapers etc.
-dual recovery
-end call with sleep button
-change AZERTY -> QWERTY
-HTC Black Theme by draco_ag
-standard launcher replaced with zeam 2.8.8
etc.
It's mega-fast! (and stable!)
heya, X10i is the regular xperia x10 yeh?
if so, would have to disappoint you in that there is no stock froyo or gingerbread for minipro
also none of the custom roms, even those based on the stock one, will work with timescape i think.
but, there are still some good roms out there
- For froyo you might want to try out cyanocomb or FroyoCM 6 (also look for madbulls hotfix to v6.01.2)
- For gingerbread i'd definately advise GingerDX
also, gingerDX works with the SE Active launcher (much like the stock SE one)

Yeah, title says it all. I have a XPERIA X10 Mini running android 2.1
BTW i want to go back to 1.6 just to try it out again, but i dont know how, is there any official way or do i need to mod etc ?!
Short answer: No.
Longer answer: Not yet.
Even longer answer:By the looks of things, all the Gingerbread roms available here have CyanogenMod inside them. Sony Ericsson haven't released 2.3 onto this phone and they're not likely to either, so the only way to get a 'pure' version of it would be to hope that somebody makes one...or make it yourself.
Why do you want GB without CM though? The reason so many people put it in their rom's is that it's very good. You get all sorts of improvements to the phone's functionality and performance.
As for going back to 1.6, there's no official way as SE will only give you the latest firmware. But you can use Flashtool to do it instead.
stock FTW!
I think the OP is like me and they actually prefer using the stock launcher. I've been looking for the same thing myself, a pure stock rom just updated 2.3.3.
I appreciate all of the cool tweaks and mods that CM adds to the rom but for me those tweaks usually end up borking another feature i'd rather use. I am also not a big fan of the customizations that some rom authors do like alternative launchers, heavily modified notification trays, weird fonts and color schemes. i'd prefer a just straight vanilla stock rom w/the sony launcher and camera; works nicely w/the screen realestate that we have w/the x10 mini. Again, i appreciate all the hardwork by all the rom authors/devs.
The big killer for me on the CM roms is the camera, still not up to the sony stock camera in my experience and again no stock launcher; some are close.
My solution was the following:
1. repair phone back to stock using PC Companion
2. reroot phone (bootloader already was unlocked)
3. reinstall CWM recovery
4. remove bloatware from stock rom (sony sync crap, game trials, quickoffice, etc)
5. update /etc/hosts file w/ad blocking version
6. create nand backup in CWM. (also made one after setting up miniCM7 in case i wanted to go back at anytime by restoring the nand)
if we could just get 2.3.3 in a pure stock form.. i'd be in heaven.. however, i may give the new ICS roms a try once they get to everyday-use-stable.
btw, the x10 minis have been the hardest to get root, recovery and kernels on of all of the android devices i've used yet. (Nexus one, HTC G2, LG G2x, Lenovo TPT, Galaxy Tab). mad props to the devs that got us to where we are now.
Hi guys, first of all i would really like to know which custom rom is the best for my xperia x10, i would like it to be fast, but still stable, the animations should all be fluent (best thing would be a fast and very fluent 2.3.x) and "everything" should work properly, so not too many bugs and errors^^
Also, do i need an unlocked bootloader or anything to flash a custom rom?
I've got flashtool and pc companion installed.
My phone is a xperia x10 (as you may have guessed), its sim-unlocked and i've just recently updated it to 2.3.3 (with pc companion, so a stock and original sony erricson 2.3.3) and everything works fine, except that its slow and pretty much all animations are laggy, thats why i want to flash a fast and stable custom rom.
Thanks in advance guys, i hope you can help me
First of all you have to root Your phone. After that You have to Install xRecovery and You'll be ready to flash new ROM. Fastest ROMs are the stock based ROMs

Use this tool forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415600
I would suggest
1) wolf v7b6-simple and fast
2) ferlab- many 2.3.4 apps and great rom
3) shelly-it just like stock 2.3.4 but very fast
I actually really just want all the animations like changing the desktop page or timescape and the foto/video widget to run smooth, so which one is best in these matters?
Still thanks for the recommendations and how to install custom roms!
OK, i now rooted my phone and installed xrecovery, then i flashed (or installed) the full fps uncap and now its wayyy better
switching between homescreens and all the other animations are now very smooth, for the moment i'm happy with this, but i'll probably flash a custom rom sometime in the future...
Hey mates.
I was wondering, how can i port a rom "for example: xperiabread ultra v7.0" to work with Stock kernel?.
If i use let's say "minicm7 pro v21" as base, and only change the apk's from the apk's folder " from xperiabread apk's to the base minicm7 pro v21 rom" will it work? or is there something missing?. I can't use naa-14 kernel because my phone once in a while shut down or loose signal :S.
Please people i really need answers on this one, because i can't afford a new phone right now "just to run android 2.3 with no bugs" :S , i really like Gingerbread because it's more practical to use than Eclair in everything.
Hello,
I don't use my X10 anymore but just mess around with it as a hobby.
After trying many ROMs over the years, I want to keep on with the stock Sony 2.3.3 firmware, but was wondering what are the best add-ons for it (eg - FPS uncap) and where I can find them and how I can install them?
I am sure the @FeraVolt GB kernel used to work with Stock ROM and make it faster as long as you installed the drivers for it in recovery, but I can't seem to get this to work anymore??
Any info would be great.
