look here
by flashing this ROM you get Android 2.3.5 here is link to download ROM
if you don't understand just put a question here or translate with Google
also do not try ROMs not made for you phone just because of possible hardware failure !!
be sure you have Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini E10i
shortly you have to copy ROM to sdcard then enter recovery mode make bakup then flash new ROM
-backup data just in case..
-save all your data from sdcard before !
-after step 6 copy .zip (ROM archive) to sdcard then do step 7
-wipe steps are important to be sure you make a clean install
-format sd-ext this will make a ext3 part on sdcard for data/apps
(it is just a copy/paste from the original thread)
GUIDE TO TRY NEW VERSION WITHOUT LOOSE MOST OF YOUR APPS AND YOUR SETTINGS:
1) enter in recovery
2) backup
3) wipe system
4) wipe cache
5) format sd-ext
6) wipe dalvik-cache
7) install andread 2.2.9 v8f
8) reboot your phone and start for the first time with andread 2.2.9 v8f
9) reboot in recovery
10) install optional fix if you want new contacts and new dialer
11) restore backup from recovery with advanced restore (you must manually restore choosing first data, then cache, then system, then sd-ext reboot your phone and you will have you're phone updated and with all your last settings and apps)

in fact to flash a ROM is not a big deal but be sure to make all steps in that order
read original thread and do not hesitate to ask !

2-6 is do in the xrecovery?
10) install optional fix if you want new contacts and new dialer????
how ?from market?
this is the latest rom without bug?
thank you so much

step 10- find on original thread Fix Contacts and Dialer download and copy on sdcard
you will flash this file by recovery to update dialer/contacts- step 10
It seems Andread 2.2.9 v9f is the last version because link to Andread 2.3.5 v1t is not valid..
It looks like a good rom giving overclocking/undervolt etc but I understand your frustration because is not very clear how to install
You should do this:
-save all your data (photos etc) on PC just in case..
-now you have to copy Andread 2.2.9 v9f.zip to sdcard
also copy the file from Fix Contacts and Dialer link to sdcard for step 10
-now enter your recovery and make steps 1-11
if you get error on step 7 tell me to know

use PC Companion to revert to stock ROM or flash that custom ROM from previous posts have you tried that ?
or if you have a backup enter recovery and use this to revert to previous status
is not bricked and can be solved bricked means problems with bootloader and phone is like dead- will not boot and no chance to solve it without dedicated service tools

yes this can be an answer to wifi problem but the easy way is to flash a new ROM
baseband is the Radio/Modem version it depends of phone model/carrier/Android version
the radio firmware controls low-level functions on the phone like GSM signal/wifi/GPS to upgrade radio firmware will fix connectivity problems,decrease power usage, etc incorrect radio firmware can disable some functions such MMS/3G/Wifi

It's about framework-res.apk you have to replace it but do not get this from a stock rom if you have a custom rom on phone
also if you have a custom rom (you have that rom on PC as archive) with that language support and this is the rom flashed then you can do this
if you just want to add a new language support to a rom this is not easy

Just do a factory reset then make a second partition on your sdcard and use link2sd. Problem solved.

Is factory reset and hard reset are the same?

I think you need root for this mod.

AW: [Q] Low on space notification -- Please help me
sorry, i was at training, so i could not reply that fast.
well, rooting is allways a first step.
i did it that way: (short form only, if u want additional info's, just ask)
1. root
2. put a new rom + gapps on ur sd card
3. flash a prerootet kernel with preinstalled recovery which fits to ur rom
4. flash rom + gapps
5. reboot
6. connect phone to pc
7. backup ur sd card
8. delete ur entire sd card (thats why u have to make the backup)
9. reboot into recovery
10. wipe all
11. search for 'partition sd card'
12. choose ur values that u want
13. reboot into system
14. connect to pc
15. put all files back on sd card
16. download the mod and put in on sd too
17. reboot into recovery
18. flash the mod
19. wipe all
20. reboot
21. YOU'RE DONE!!

Modules.zip is inside of fusion kernel rar file : D No there is no risk in flashing wifi modules because these are just a files required for a custom kernel to work properly. I mean like a drivers in windows so the wifi can work.
Just remember to format system, data, cache partitions in CWM before flashing anything. And I forgot about this http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip these are the newest google apps for JB without this Play store, google maps etc wont work.

Dual boot your Redmi 1S

Hey guyzz.. Im Shreyans Jain from Technocraticides. A new channel on YouTube and recently uploaded a new video related to Redmi 1S.
I this video I have showed how to dual boot your Redmi 1S. You can dual boot any rom but here we have dual booted MIUI 7 with CM 13. So please guys to watch this video and if you have any issue or suggestions or problem just comment here, on the YouTube or on our page
I can't post the link as I am a new user thus plz search on YouTube
"Technocraticides"
Please do watch!!
We will continue doing experiments on this device and other devices too and Desktops too..

Text Tutorial
So here is the text tutorial of how to DUAL BOOT your Redmi 1S. :highfive:
PRE-REQUISITE
Here you need the files we need for this process and the links to these files are mentioned below
Backup of your ROM which you are using right now if you want it to use it after the dual boot process (Here MIUI 7 is backed up).
your Redmi 1S should be charged with at least 80% battery (NOT necessary but suggested).
Rooted Redmi 1S with TWRP installed.
The ROMs you want to dual boot and everything for that ROM.
Procedure:
Backup your present rom. (For eg. MIUI 7 ) using TWRP.
Now after backup in TWRP go to home ---> Click on Install ---> Navigate yourself where you have kept the downloaded files ---> Find HM1s-Sysrec.zip and flash it.
This will now delete your Internal memory and factory reset your present ROM. (So backup it before hand)
After flash phone will reboot into recovery mode. Now copy System-Menu-Data-HM1SWC in your Ext. as well as Internal storage. For this connect your device to your PC in recovery mode. Your device will get connected as MTP device. Now copy this file in both Internal as well as External storage.
Now Flash
Sysrem-Menu1.4.1-test.zip . Aroma installer will open. Then Click on English ---> Accept the terms ---> Enter The function ---> Install and Uninstall ---> Install dual system.
Now restore the ROM you backedup earlier.
After this Go to home ---> Again Flash this file ---> Again do all that ---> This time click on Install SystemChanger app ---> System1 ---> Check first option only if you are on MIUI ---> Next
After this flash UPDATE SUPERSU V2.46.zip
Now reboot to system.
When rebooted to system go to SuperSU and go to settings and click on enable SuperSU and after the process again click on it till it installs the SUPERSU again.
Press Home button.
Find the SystemChanger app. Open it ---> Click on Switching.
After a while phone will show Mi logo. Press Vol up+Power button. Phone will enter in recovery mode.
Flash the ROM you wanted in SYSTEM2.
After process Again flash Sysrem-Menu1.4.1-test.zip --->Do all that ---> Click on Install SystemChanger app ---> System2---> Check first option if it is MIUI else continue.
Root the ROM any how. (If you want to know how to root a specific ROM reply below)
Click on Reboot to System
The System will boot into System2.
Set it up.
After setting you will find SystemChanger app here too. Open it click on switching to boot into system1.
After the phone boots System 1 then congratulations.
Download Links:-
SUPERSU.ZIP(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1m65kr444umvi34/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip?dl=0)

It actually divides your NAND partition into two and you can dual boot cm12.1 with any ROM.

MIUI works perfectly on system partition 1. Try installing it on Sys partition 1 and other rom on System Partition 2

"7. After this Go to home ---> Again Flash this file ---> Again do all that ---> This time click on Install SystemChanger app ---> System1 ---> Check first option only if you are on MIUI ---> Next"
tried many times but no luck, till i leave them uncheck and it works, yes it for miui v7 on 1st system partition
and it didnt devide the nand entirely, they still share the same /data partition including internal sdcard. so if 1 rom do factory reset or restoring /data the other rom will have /data partition erased, is there any solution?

ehm so it rather complicated, let say i already have 2 rom installed and i want to replace 2nd rom with new 1, so i will need these steps:
1. make sure i have full backup system1
2. change to 2nd rom through the system changer app or the system changer installer
3. full wipe 2nd rom
4. go back to 1st system partition through system changer installer
5. restore /data
6. go back to 2nd system partition through system changer installer
7. install new rom
8. install system changer app
am i correct?

Or you can do a thing
Boot into 2nd system using system changer app
Boot into recovery
Wipe and just install the ROM
Install system changer app
I hope that will work!

Bro you cant just criticize like that! You may encounter some problems but that doesnot mean its because of this methord. Im personally using it for over 1 month and too use snapchat, instagram, facebook, whatsapp on both roms (Not whatsapp as it can be installed on a single ROM only) but I didnt encountered any issue!
Please be sure what you are posting. You told a guy above also that the method is risky. He/She may now wint install. Please bro please.

Flashing Lollipop Roms (XPERIA S)

You Must have UNLOCKED your BOOTLOADER FIRST To Upgrade.​STEP 1
Root your mobile.I have tested Kingo root software(PC) and rooted successfully
STEP 2
Before unlocking BootLoadr , Take TA partition backup. Search on Google what is TA partition how to backup or Go here.
STEP 3
Install recovery (If already installed then move to Step 4) .
STEP 4
Now you need a compatible recovery to flash lollipop rom.Download Flashable zip with TWRP .
This has mickybarts Naosp b26's boot.img(Kernel) and Twrp recovery which can flash Lollipop roms without any problem.
FLASHING LOLLIPOP ROM
Download the ROM and gapps use pico gapps as its small in size.Download Supersu.zip.then copy these to SD card.
Now you have 4 FILES must be copied to SD card.you can make a folder and place all files on that.
1. flashable Zip with twrp
2. ROM.zip
3.gapps
4.SuperSU.zip.
Now the flashing steps.
1. Enter to recovery (cwm) and take back up(important).
2. now install the flashable Zip with twrp and reboot to recovery.
3. now you are on twrp recovery
Then in TWRP goto Wipe----then choose Advance wipe---then select (4 things) 1.Dalvik cache,2.System,3.cache,4.Data and swipe to wipe (Important::Make sure Sd card is not selected....Otherwise you will lose all saved files in sd card).
4. Now go back to main menu of TWRP and Goto Mount menu...and Deselect (3 things) 1.System, 2.Cache, 3.Data..(Leave the Internal Sdcard selected or ticked)
5. Now go back to Main menu and click Install. Then Select the Rom.Zip you want to Flash.
6. Wipe Cache Dalvik Cache
7. Now again Goto Install menu and Select Gapps package to Flash
8. Wipe Cache Dalvik Cache
9. Select Supersu.zip to Flash
10. Wipe Cache Dalvik Cache and Reboot to system.. DONE
