Develop Bugs

Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 community ?

Hi,
I have a SE X2 smartphone, Swedish version. I would like to get in touch with other people that have an X2 and try to set-up a community much like the very active community on the X1 you have here. May be a new forum ?
As I see it, the X2 has good hardware but lousy software on it. WM 6.5 is not really stable, the original ROM makes the device very sluggish in performance, etc. Most annoying also is that I have not found how to change the language on the device. I want to change from Swedish to English. Surfing the net I have found the ROMs that I need to flash. I simply don't know how to flash them.
Another post suggested to try and trick the SEUS software into another language for the device so it would flash the other language stock ROM. Great idea but how to do that ?
Other posts talk about CID locks and HARD_SPL that need to be available first to enable flashing new/other firmware ROMs into the device. There is however nothing to be found on the status of these software tools nor their release date ?
Therefore, I try to reach out to fellox X2 enthusiasts that want to get the most out of their smartphone (investment). There seems to be a lot of competence within this forum's community. Let's try to join them and share.

The more people which request the X2 forum the more likely you are of acheiving this, so I'd suggest you request it here

Dear Zopo fans ,
I start this new thread because I've read that the developers are angry with many Chinese manufacturers because thay not release the kernel source code for their phones.
With your help, perhaps, we could change that situation and help the developers to develop new Rom or fix any bugs.
How? Quite simply!
For anyone who has a Facebook account:
Click " Like" on the official page of Zopo :

Then copy this message (if anyone knows a better English of mine, I am ready to change it):
Dear Zopo with this message I ask you to release the source code of the kernel of your mobile phones.
This demand stems from the repute many developers would be Helped to develop new ROM or fix any bugs.
In addition, I am sure, that the release of the source code and therefore the support of the community of XDA Developers, greatly increase the volume of your sales.
With the hope that this request does not fall on deaf ears, I wish you a good day .

we are here for technology and they insist to make a snail mail haha funny microsoft

Yeh I am pretty sure this is a tactic to show contempt for free software. They do have an obligation to release it - whether this matters to them I'm not sure. Thinking is that more people writing could help put pressure on them (and maybe provoke some sort of response?).

Ok, so I just found out yesterday our national post office has been on strike for the past 11 weeks and that the whole thing is pretty much on the brink of collapse. This doesn't bode well for me getting my hands on the source code. http://www.timeslive.co.za/businesstimes/2014/10/19/leaked-audit-report-points-to-post-office-chaos

FM radio (by the air) for customs roms

Hi everybody .
I have a big request (challenge) to all devs and someone with knowledges :
It's possible to port or to find a way for the FM radio by the air for h815 customs roms ?
With mods of original CM apps or anothers...
It's really pity not to have this option on our phones ....
I will be very very highly grateful .... :angel:

Not possible

For example ,in the past ,the dev of spirit-fm have done some greats miracles with unsupported phones ...
I'm convinced that it's possible with some development ,some search.

Petition LG to open source the code required to enable the FM
