[ROM] MiniCM7 - 2.0.7 - GingerBread 2.3.5 for X8 [updated 28-8-11]




this ROM is developed originally for x10 mini by nobodyAtall. here's guy(ponanovn) from x8 community manage to port it to our lovely x8

Visit Project's page @ google code

MiniCM7 is part of the FreeXperia project

MiniCM7 is custom-built, based on CyanogenMod 7, running Android Gingerbread on top of stock SE kernel and is stripped off as many SE 2.1 stuff as possible.


Notes:

  • MiniCM7 is built for X10mini. It is a stable and the most feature-complete Gingerbread ROM for day to day use
  • This is a team work by DaRk_dOg and nobodyAtall
  • Do not ask if this ROM has stuff NOT supported by either the kernel (i.e. Wifi Tether / Swap) or the device hardware (i.e. Flash). If any exotic features are implemented they will be in the following 'Feature list'
  • The MiniCM7 theme is made exclusively for the MiniCM7 ROM. It is not to be used with other ROMS, so DON'T rip it unless your ROM is MiniCM
  • For Troubleshooting common issues visit: http://code.google.com/p/minicm/wiki/Troubleshooting
  • To everyone: Please don't mirror this ROM

Working:

  • Everything

  • App2sd / Dalvik2sd compatible with 2.1 app2sd (storing to ext2/3/4 pre-existing partition is detected and mounted as such)
  • Gingerbread's native App2sd (storing to fat)
  • ClockworkMod recovery v. 3.2.0.0-r5 and option to reboot into Recovery (Encryption - Multiboot Ready!)
  • Undervolting and Overclocking handled CM Settings menu (by default none is active)

  3. I have a doubt, in "mod version" it shows up MiniCM7-2.0.4, but I`m supposed to be using MiniCM7-2.0.5a-X8.zip, is this OK? or do I have wrong version?

  4. @nrgmaster

    I think yes. Maybe the developer forgot to change those. I haven't tested it myself. still doing some experiment of my battery life.

    check camera. if no FC when using full 3.2MP, that means the ROM is 2.0.5 :)

    ReplyDelete
  6. Tks, I don`t know what FC means, but my guess from what I`ve read would be "something going wrong" :) and no, camera work perfectly on 3.2Mp, so I`ll assume everything it's OK

    FC means "Force Closes". there's a popup showing error messages. ok then, enjoy the ROM. :)
