New X2 ROM release quick review: finally a worth, bug fixing update from SE - XPERIA X2 General

Yesterday I installed the latest official firmware ROM update for the Xperia X2 (from SEUS)
It is Software version R1BA023
For the first time, I am pleased with Sony Ericsson for the update
Here's a list of changes and what's new:
1.- "Fast GPS" app (sort of SE's version of "quick GPS")
2.- VideoCall support added to the dialer and context menus, along with a proper configuration app @ settings
3.- FM Radio has been incorporated into slideview
4.- Tilewave Panel has been updated:
now it has a handy battery status tile and the hour bug seems to be fixed
5.- SlideView has been enhanced:
many new buttons and features to sync and write emails, call list display, etc
6.- The WM 6.5 SYS|XIP has finally been updated
to the more stable CE OS 5.2.21891 (Build 21891.5.0.88)
This newer build solves many SYS related bugs: now it holds ringtones, returns to the start menu when closing an app, etc
The downturn: xtrakt and experiment 13 have both been removed
(but hey who cares, we have CABs for them)
PS: I am sorry for my late replies and scarce appearances here, I almost never connect to xda-devs any more (no X2 forum here)
I'm 100% X2 now, no more X1 dev for me
.

Tne News comes so late. I am waiting new Generic_CN ROM and X2 HardSPL.
Xperia X2 forum is necessary.

thx for sharing this information
already wondered about your "absence/inactivity", but that certainly explains it...
it's been requested (and not only by me) to create an X2 forum, but as of now no response from admin
but I'm sure (ok, I hope) it will be added so stay tuned and drop by at least once in a while
best

gtrab hello to when a new rom in Spanish thanks greetings

finally video call support for X1 WM6.5 native dialer

wo~ gtrab~ we were missing you~~~ @[email protected]
and finally the video call~ cheers~~~ ^_^

sorry for my abscence guys,
as I stated, full X2 now, so nothing to do here anymore for me
I drop by from time to time to update / post relevant info regarding the X2
I know I am not off topic (posting X2 stuff on the X1 ROMs subforum) because I think this info is useful for cookers / porters
.

Too bad you're not present as frequent as you were, I like the time pionering the early 6.5 builds with you....
But...we all gotta move on sometime (I still got about 8 months left before I can trade my X1, hopefully by that time WP7 phones will be avialable).
Thanks for the info on X2....wished SE did some proper updates on X1 like they are now doing on X2 (maybe they've learned from their mistake).

You should take a look in the general subforum. Lots of threads there about X2, mostly about huge problems with the ROM update. Wonder why you experience has been smoother?
Nice to see you back.

Hi Gtrab,
Good to see you back

oh SE never sleep ,
they are working hard on the 6.5.3 release (version 23103 or 23104 ,could be the final version that will be released).
proof.

HTC TouchFlo 3D Port From HTC Blackstone / Rhodium Project

TouchFlo 2 3D HD Beta 3 CAB
Completed with landscape support! Still in beta of course so I will deal with bugs on a case by case basis. The cab is light - and I mean it (only 9,112KB bigger than the B2 cab), just the essentials to get you going. The Album & Audio Manager is included of course but not Opera, YouTube etc. You can find the cabs for these at XDA. It is better for those who want a cab rather than a rom because it allows you to have flexibility. A huge thank you to itje for the source files - a good guy to work with.
Download link below.
For those wanting cabs which are not already out there (for example USBtoPC - in production right now), let me know on this thread.
TouchFlo 2 3D HD v1.0 ROM !!!
Now completed and now waiting for the official R3AA release so I can base the new rom on this. There is an R3AA out there at the moment but it is not a final from Sony Ericsson. itje and I will be releasing a rom based on the official R3AA when it is out shortly.
DONATIONS: You can donate using PayPal to my email address!
Update: I am now able to give you Sprite Terminator cooked into any X1/Blackstone/Diamond/Touch Pro rom. All you need to do is buy a license from Sprite Software and provide me this with a near and far telephone number (near will be a partner, spouse or best mate etc and the far number will be a family member). You are best having two phone numbers just in case you and your partner (for example) get robbed - then you can get alerts on the second phone which your family member has. The whole point of doing this is if your phone goes missing, you can track your phone via GPS and get alerted if a new sim goes into your phone. Cooking the software into the rom means that it will survive a hard reset!!
A donation of 5 euros will be needed for the work and a percentage will go back to support XDA.

Keep posting functional problems and I will add to this list. Sorry, but I won't be able to resolve language related problems and I will rely on those on this thread to help out.
This release is a pure port and nothing has been changed from the original. I will not be making modifications to it or adding any new features!
This was tested on a freshly hard reset device. I cannot guarantee that this will function properly on a device laden with software. Also, I will not be testing this on a panel or providing any fixes as such for it.
Special thanks for everyone's support so far and especially to itje for the source files and his help.
Enjoy and please report functional issues only in this thread!
Reserved
Anyone who wants to buy me a beer or two for the work, donations are accepted on PayPal (use my email address).
Future work includes:
1. Rom development for the X1. This will be focused on merging the nice parts of the Blackstone with the X1.
2. Cooking Sprite Terminator into the X1 rom. This is a personalised service (will require a donation) as I will need to cook in your own configuration. Note: You will need to show me proof of purchase! Have a look at what Sprite Terminator does: www.spritesoftware.co.nz
Thank you for everyone who have left me positive feedback, keeps me going on this project!

TF3DHD Rom & B3 CAB
Hi everyone, my apologies as I have been away on Holiday to New Zealand so have not been monitoring the thread. I am now wondering if there is any point to releasing the B1 rom publically or finishing the B3 cab. So I will wait until I get some feedback before continuing. If there is any interest, then I will release the B1 ROM for everyone.
Hi Daran,
It would be better to release the CAB of the new release. I dont think there is any point of releasing a ROM right now. Those of us who flashed a cocked rom already have a TF3D preinstalled, but for everyone else who sticks with the generic ROMs can use your TF3D CAB or ite's.
Thanks in advanced, and welcome back
Hiya Daran, welcome back I for one would really like to see the B3 Cab! Your work is appreciated

Great to see you back Daran. I´ve no problem except those, which are already listed on the first page. It would be great if you could speed up the perfomance.
TF3D on Itjes latest rom is very fast maybe because of this "Manila is CFC configured/reduced (saves aprox 8 mb) thx to Chainfire"

hi daran, i have been eagerly awaiting b3 since xmas ! looking forward to donating.
hi daran, for me i would prefer the B3 CAB, and for those who not very 'profesional' with rom's cooking (like me), i believe they want the cabbing method too (or its just me..)...
anyway...good to job to you.
Hi daran,
i also would prefer the b3 cab as standalone, because of warranty it is not possible to change my rom ( on my x1, because it is a phone of my work...
+1 on the B3 CAB. Can't be doing with starting from scratch with all my apps
i prefer a B3 cab also.
Thx for the great effort
hi is possible to port over tf3d from the touch pro so the landscape mode would be intact as well?
b3 cab for me too, welcome back daran!!!

Nope, wrong resolution. But maby Quartz or Rhodium mentioned in other posts.
Great to see you back Daran! Have been eagerly waiting for your B3 cab. Think a lot of people see your cab as the better choice (as compared to itje's), given that itje is just concentrating on the ROMs and no longer has been updating his cabs. Anyway your B2 fixed the A2DP prob so had been using it all along.
Btw, hope that you'll be able to come up with the USBtoPC popup cab. So far only seen the USBtoPC cab, but not the popup, and there seems to be others asking about it too.

I would love to help testing.
Required knowledge is no problem...
I use a Touch HD with Dutty V2 EXTREME ROM.
I hope, I can help!
Best regards!
I can also test, i got a Touch HD, with dutty 1.9, and one with the o2 Stock (OEM) Rom.
I have no problems with Registry editing, File editing,Manila Files , or Windows files/Filesystem.
The Required knowledges are no problem for me.
I hope I can help you.

hi i can help you also.
I have a Touch Pro and currently using HRG' 1.5 rom with TP2 manila.
Hope i can be of any help.
Cheers.

Hey i want to be a tester.
My Device: Touch HD
My Rom and others: look into my signature, its the original german rom from htc
Skills: I know the registry and can handle with it. Im also a beginning software developer for winmo (c# not vb ). If i will find a bug i would describe it so exactly how i can. File System etc. and errors i can interpretate and there isn't a problem.
A question:
Is it possible that you can change the name or publish an extra version like HD TF3D Config, hmm thats not sooooo good, or maybe just TF3D Config or what else. It's just attractions.
So i would spend my time for testing your software and in the opposite you will test maybe some programs/games from me in the future, if you want.

I know, the name is a problem. When I released the first version of my tool, only the Touch Diamond allready existed. Now there a lot of different devices (Touch Pro, Touch HD, etc.).
But on the other hand, the name of the tool is known from everyone. More than 200.000 to 300.000 users are still using my tool. If I rename my tool, noone knows that it is the same application ;-) I think the name of my tool is not the main feature of my tool ;-) So it doesn't matter how it is called.
By the way: A short comment to the video is welcome (about the new gui. if you like it or not).
i can also test it on my touch hd with on different roms. new and older manila.
I'll like to join the beta test team as well.
Device: Diamond Rom: Dutty Diam V4
I have no problems editing registry, locating manila files and minor editing them. I also have good knowledge of various graphics editing softwares.
if you still need a beta tester for the HD I will be glad to help you dude
I'm using the dutty rom v1.9 and I will flash this night with the lastest V2
And BTW, the new GUI is really awesome !!!! Nice job
edit : I'm working in a helpdesk (for airbus, as well), my skills are computer science technician since 15 years now, I'm not really good at programming (because I don't like it), my skills are network analysis, etc...
I've already helped some guys here, as beta tester, like Fingerkeyboard, WVD, the new MWC3 from Marshall that is coming and others... I've also been beta tetser for some ROM cookers and on my free time, I'm also a designer

1. The new gui is interessting but i would tell you more if im a tester
2. The fact that you will share your Touch Controls is very cool, but will it costs something? I think a bit is ok but not so much. I believe the whole high costs of software-developing "helpers" weaken the quality of software of the "new generation" of touch and so on.

First I developed those Controls just for my tool, but then I saw that those controls will give developers new possibilties to create new cool finger-frindly application for windows mobile, because there are still just a few apps which are finger-frindly. The price for the controls stands on the website, and I think the price is fair. Because developers will get updates (incl. new controls), bugfixes and support by e-mail and mirabyte-forum. This is very important for developers.

Ok i dont discuss when i dont know the product.
I will wait for the demo and then i will look whether i do need it or not.
But a question, is it very difficult to develop the screenslide effect? (i mean if key down -> touch move -> list will move in this direction)

i think is not full ready even for x2
but if you have found something share it..
x2 panels havent even been ported to the x1 yet.
The x1's panels however have been ported to the HD.
i have the X2 panel(from a pre-release test unit) - the city control - it's an animated city, and when u click on a location/building, it opens a coresponding menu and the panels menager, but i don't know if they are going to work on the rhodium. I can share them, if someone is willing to port them for the TP2 A have unbranded TP2 , but didn't find the time to test the panels on it, but they are working on X1i for shure
here you go:
the mannager: http://www.4shared.com/file/134595575/eabd34f0/PanelManager_R33.html
the city panel: http://www.4shared.com/file/134595737/635b44b6/PixelCityDayPanel.html
I can give it a shot but i can't make any promises especially if the panels are as useless as they were on the x1.
pls, try them and if u have success, pls. share the result - i've added links withe the mennager and the panel, and the panel isn't useless, it's very convinient (excuse my eng )

a spy shot of the x2 i made a month ago.. and i've tried to extract some things from the os... but the panels are intact, u can use them and i hope they'll work on our tp2's
I'm not seeing a download link... I've seen the panels in action on a review before but I can't say they are useless until i use them. What i would need is a full dump of the xperia x2 ROM

here are the DL links, my previous post man, a dump of the rom is not possible, as i dont have access to this unit anymore, it went back to the manifacturer..
Oops missed that lol.. I assume these have been tried on the rhodium and it didn't work?
***EDIT****
I already see two problems. Two of the dlls aren't present. FlashPanel.dll and SEMCFlashAPI.dll
i can try to get them, but i'm not shure in this
I'll try and find it as well.

I'm not sure if the x1 has the missing dlls.
I think Ark released one...but not sure if it is fully working or not.
http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=357
These look like X1 panels.. I'll look in the cabs and see if it has the missing dlls.
maybe if you can get a full dump or copy your rom and hand it over t an experienced chef like itje the we could move this forward on the x1 (sice they'll be the most demand for the new panel manager there) and then get itje to cook it into some of his rhodium roms that way we could really move this forward
If I had a full dump i could cook it into a Rhodium ROM. The problem is we don't have a dumb. I have no doubt that when a dump exist itje will probably be one of the first to get it.

We've now been given these 'Blackberry' look-a-likes at work. And although I'm normally an HTC guy this is a reasonable phone and should have it's own forum.
I can confirm that Route 66 runs like a dream without any lag ;-)
