This is non androd, non based on android ROM
This OS based on Meego.
I promised to publish a small guide how to boot Nemo Mobile on your phone instead of the default android. Here is a small guide how to do so. The process it self is quite simple and should be relatively safe as well, as you do not need to flash anything to try it out.
In this guide it is assumed that one has android tools, such as adb and fastboot installed, also Linux is assumed but it should work also on windows with minor modifications.
The phone used was unlocked/rooted before I tried this, so that might also be required for following these instructions.
First thing is to download all the needed files:
Downloads:
rootfs image: - http://sage.kapsi.fi/sagestechblog/gt-i9250/2012-04-26.1/nemo-handset-armv7l-gt-i9250.img.bz2
Kernel: - http://d-h.st/Ffw (also with this kernel you can boot arm linux)
Instruction:
Push the rootfs image to the /sdcard
# Uncompress
adb shell bzip2 -d /sdcard/nemo-handset-armv7l-gt-i9250.img.bz2
adb shell mv /sdcard/nemo-handset-armv7l-gt-i9250.img /sdcard/image.img
2. Download and flash kernel.elf
fastboot flash boot kernel.elf
fastboot reboot
Or with Flash Tools
3. Connect mouse via OTG
After this, the device should boot to the MTF based UX home screen.
What works:
USB OTG
USB Mouse/Keyboard
Display
Backlight
What no works:
Xorg starts with standard fbdev (no 3D acceleration)
Applications do not start as the software flag isn't forwarded properly
No window manager/application switcher (requires 3D)
No 3D acceleration
Touch screen
Sensors (Especially disabled)
No USB networking
No WLAN
No Bluetooth
No Sound
Touch keys
Hardware keys
...

OpenRUU - RUU Shell Script For Linux (See the post below for mac support)
This is a shell script to flash an official RUU from HTC.
I tested this on my device and it ran fine, it uses exactly the same commands as the RUU app.
You do not need root.
The script will:
Get your current ROM version
Get Your Current HBOOT Version
Get Your Battery %
Reboot into RUU Mode
Flash the ROM using fastboot
Reboot your phone
Enjoy!
DOWNLOADS:
2.73.405.5 Generic WWE (The one you need to root with flashrec)
TO INSTALL:
GUI Method:
Extract the zip > right click on the script > properties > permissions tab > Select 'Enable execution as a program' > OK > Double Click > Run in terminal
Terminal method:
Code:
Extract the zip
cd /path/to/files
chmod 755 OpenRUU-Hero-WWE-2.73.405.5.sh
./OpenRUU-Hero-WWE-2.73.405.5.sh
If you want me to add a ROM then please PM me with the rom.zip, see here for how to extract a rom.zip from an RUU.
If you can, please donate so I can afford better hosting, I also have some cool features to implement when I get proper hosting too. (If you can host a rom.zip, please PM me.)

Mac Support
For Mac:
Download this,
Delete 'adb' & 'fastboot' from the folder you extracted the files too,
Rename 'fastboot-mac' to 'fastboot',
Copy it to the script folder,
Run the Script.
If you get errors then please put in a codebox the terminal output.
That's a nice idea. Something the community has been lacking for a while too
Hope it goes well
Reserved #2 - ^^ DOH! This 30secs thing really annoys me
Hello guys.
I just opened the bootloader of my phone and want to install recovery mode so could you please tell me how ?
And another question: how can I root my phone via recovery mode ?
I use last update 4.0.2.A.0.62
Thank you in advance
Just download recoveryPLAY.img (google it) and place it in androidSDk folder where the fastboot.exe is located. Switch on your phone using fastboot and enter the command fastboot boot recoveryPLAY.img. Also download the RootXperia.zip and flash it once you are in recovery. Later on If you want CWM (recovery) on your phone , you can follow this thread.

I readed a thread on the mini pro development section and i thought this would be useful.
What is it?:
FOR STOCK ROM ONLY (or maybe for roms based upon stock rom)
Didn't test it on ICS builds
-Install CWM on stock rom (locked and unlocked)
-APK installer
-BassBoost
-Bravia engine
-Dalvik2Cache
-install Java for Android v2.1, 2.2, 2.3
-and maybe more!
What do i need?
A xperia 2011 phone
For pc:
- Install PC Companion for adb driver installation
- Enable USB Debugging by going to: Menu \ Settings \ Applications \ Development
- Enable Install from Unknow sources by going to: Menu \ Settings \ Applications
- Increase screen timeout over 1 min
- Connect your phone to your computer via USB connection.
- Press the button corresponding to install the corresponding features on the phone!

I rooted my phone. so now I can relock bootloader and won't that affect on root access ?
I intend to port to WP7 device fully fledged WEC7 OS (USB Host/OTG, Flash animations in the fully featured Internet Explorer, XP-like explorer design, Multiple formats media player etc.) with preservation of WP7 applications in the near future. Many WEC / WCE applications work unchanged, the problem is only with the addition of the core (especially missing UI API) and fixing some drivers. If you want someone to play, for example, there is a kernel tracker listing. Place the attached exe and dll files in the \Windows directory, you can start logging by WP7 console command:
\> CeLogFlush.exe
Logging will finished by device power switching off or by W.I.N.C.O wPhoManager Process Kill function.
Registry needed (in my device are rest probably from the Dynamics ROM authors):
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CeLog]
"FileName"="celog.clg"
"Transport"="LocalFile"
You can open logged file by Visual Studio 2008 Remote Tools / Kernel Tracker.

}
Very powerful WEC7 shell works on WP7 device too
Deploy shell.exe to \Windows directory. Now you can work from WP7 Console. Try for example:
\> shell -c gi proc
or
\> shell -c mi kernel
-c means "output to console"
2013 (similar WEC7) target controlling help is here.
Full Internet explorer for WP7
There is first version. After one working second it stays in "Failed to create swap chain" state. This is something from DirectX subsystem probably. Also "Too many favorites" mistake occures. If we solve it, we can use fully working IE on WP7 devices (grouped favorites, working flash and other plugins etc.).
Utilities big update
New Console7 version can offer to you many usable utilities, as cgacutil, etcha, ipconfig, ipconfig6, ipv6, kbdtest, msmqadm, ndisconfig, net, netlogctl, netstat, ping, rnaapp, route, services, shell, tracert, upnpreg and wlantool. With simply user interface you can write commands (or batch or Mort scripts) with big possibilities as on desktop Windows.

Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP) is an open-source software custom recovery image for Android-based devices. It provides a touchscreen-enabled interface that allows users to install third-party firmware and back up the current system, functions often unsupported by stock recovery images. It is, therefore, often installed when rooting Android devices, although it isn't dependent on a device being rooted to be installed.
Instructions
Download TWRP-3.5.2-RMX182X.img from the download link
Place the file in adb folder
Power off your device
Go to fastboot mode by holding Power and Volume Down buttons
Connect your phone to PC
Flash recovery by typing this command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP-3.5.2-RMX182X.img
Boot into recovery by typing this command
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
Requirements
Realme 3 Device
PC with fastboot drivers installed or bugjager in another android device
Recovery image
Download
TWRP-3.5.2-RMX182X.img
What's Working?
Decryption
MTP
Flashing images and zips
Backup and Restore
Wiping and Formating
Everything else
Bugs
None
