i let...rkwan to FLASH 3rd party rom..

@techno_fanatics

Yes, even when u're flashing the rom, all your data is ady gone. It'll take usually around 10-15 minutes for the whole process to be completed.

@rkwan

I agree with you, FS 3.1.16 is the best till date I've used, but I'm going to flash to Leo 3.4 now, if not satisfied, FS 3.4 haha.. Can't resist trying out new roms. Btw would frequent flashing damage the phone IC chip?

exclude v3.4, cos duno how 's the performance yet..
i vote v3.1 too..

Vote for valkyrie FireStorm v3.1.16 too~
Stable Smooth Fast~

im on 3.2.16leo...this ok for me as i skipped from 3.0 to 3.2...didnt try 3.1..maybe will try 3.4 later if im free..

I just tried Leo 3.4, it's still laggy imo, didn't even tried it for more than 30 minutes, flashing to FS 3.1 now, hopefully it's fast enough for daily usage. I don't need fancy graphics, but want a stable platform for day to day usage. Great that FS 3.4 has the weather incorporated into home screen.. Will report back soon.

haha~ I thought im onli da person who like tat~ I oso jz flashed FS v3.4, but not leo 1, topaz 1~
Oso can't tahan more than 30mins den i flash b 2 FS 3.1 le~
Wat i can say about FS v3.4 (topaz) is quite laggy, no tat smooth~
But it manage 2 fix the bug of the photo viewer in TD3D 1~ Much more smooth than b4, but still sumtime got a bit laggy lah~
I din even try much about it coz it really lag n quite slow~
N oso da button change 2 btm alrdy, din get used 2 it~
So , really Beh tahan~
Den flash b 2 FS v3.1 le~
Will stay wif FS v3.1, wan 2 try manila 2.5, will wait until got stable 1 1st~

i already hardSPL my x1. download rename and put in the formatted fat32 8gb microSD.when i boot into the bootloader mode (4 color mode) it just stop there

KOVS110
SPLxxxxx Olinex
xxxxxxx
xxxxxx


Serial


Any idea?
i do read around at the xda-developers and will try 1 of it solution, formatting using Panasonic SDFormatter.anyone here faced the same problem before?

rename into kovsimg.nbh rite? but make sure its .nbh format/file type.. else the name shud b kovsimg.nbh.. remove .nbh if the file alrdy is .nbh format..

bro, u mean flash rite ? Hav u alrdy HardSPL ur X1 ? If u alrdy do so, den follow the following instruction shuld b no problem 1~

Flash via micro-sd method
-Make sure x1 is hard-spl first
-Make sure your micro-sd is formatted w/ fat-32
-rename the image file (normally "ruu_signed.nbh") to Kovsimg.nbh, copy that to the micro-sd, and put that on your X1's sd-card
-Bring x1 to boot-loader mode by turning off the x1 completely. Hold the "volume down" button on the right, and hold the power on button until you see the tri-color screen.
-Then follow the on-screen instruction

The on-screen instruction will tell u 2 press the POWER button to continue, sumthing like tat, forgotten alrdy~

but jz wanna ensure tat u hav alrdy hardSPL , hold "power" + "volume down" 2gether den poke the reset button~
Holding the "power" + "volume down" button until it boot into 4-color screen (bootloader mode).
If it alrdy hardSPL , it will show like tis :
KOVS110
SPL-0.72.OliNex
MicroP1-787
MicroP2-707

I'm on FS 3.4, it's stable for me, think I'll stay with it. FS 3.1 is a bit too old for me, want to try somethign new. I think manila 2.5 is not suitable to run on xperia x1, perhaps due to hardware limitations.


Other than the volume key bug that the others mentioned, I have yet to come across any other bugs yet..

He's asking about the data in the storage card, which will survive ROM flashing and hard resets.

at last..i did it

haha.. come ss2 n find me then.. hahaha... oh yeah, thx for ur car holder.. it works so nice now.. my omnia and xperia fit into it nicely. but honestly, omnia harder to get fix. but once it fixed, it got smoother graphic n more accurate n more faster in reroute. all due to 624mhz processor.

not much worry bah.. our rom can sustain 100k times of flashing..i heard some say will drop in performance if too frequent.. haha.. dun noe is true o not thou..

im using v3.4 for few hours.. so far so good thou...

agree.. manila 2.5 is suppose to run on snapdragon, 1GHz n 512MB ram. we r thank god that xperia x1 able to run it ady..

wuuuhahahaaaa...i will..wait lah you...
of cos the holder nice le..must see who buy 1 ma...

ala ala.. pannai dy la.. lols..

we post very fast.. i should nid to create v2 soon liao..

It's just 3 more posts... create it now only lah.
