[REQ] Mediascape Port - XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps

Hi, I've already searched and unless I am blind I haven't been able to find this so I figured I'd ask here;
I miss the look and functionality of Mediascape from 1.6 and would like a port of it to 2.3. Is this possible? I know that the stock music player now is probably faster but I still miss it. Any devs out there care to shine some light on this? Thanks a lot in advance and if this is surplus then by all means this can be deleted!

developers from sony ericsson took more than half a year to port the one from 1.6 to 2.1, and it lags as hell, and they took another few months to fix the lags and add on a few more features such as one finger zoom. finally they gave it up on 2.3
now what do you think?

Well we are never going to even get the preview ROM of ICS yet here at XDA we have a relatively stable ROM working. So I guessed if the latest OS port is going well, then porting one pesky little app will be no problem. Also it doesn't hurt to ask, does it?

I feel your pain. I suffered serious withdrawal symptoms after upgrading form 2.1 to 2.3. As the honourable member says, mediascape is a bit of of an engima even for seasoned developers. Lets hope SONY come up with an alternative to the moded android app.

Once i saw this thread i was like (HOPES UP!)
one of the reasons i bought the x10 was because of the timescape and mediascape @[email protected] when they scrapped it in 2.3 i nearly cried T_T

So let's try and get a dev in to help us! Start up a petition?

Will the 2.1 ones work? I still have my nandroid back up.. I just need to extract it.

There should be a forum containing all the firmwares of the x10. While I know little about actual developing besides what I've read and the methods to recover my phone, I believe that the 2.1 global generic stuff should be perfect (or at least, better than 1.6 - works better. If possible upload both as Pvy wanted 1.6 too) as for Pvy, thank you very much for taking on this little project. Once I get near a computer I will find the links for you. If someone beats me to it then make your you either upload the whole firmware or both the frameworks, the system apps and the de-odexed versions of the apps too. Thanks people, this is starting to kick off!!!

1.. Mediascape was laggy and tbh not worth the device that ran it x10 was too good for it, 2nd it cannot be brought over, i think wolfbreak may have attempted this (feel free to correct me if am wrong) and it wasnt possbile to do, its a dead feature, although u could always go back to 2.1 for it
Sent from my X10i using xda premium

Whilst I appreciate your views, I feel obliged to point out that it was buggy for various reasons; the x10 ran on 1.6, or 2.1 back then, both dubious iterations of Android with not even a JIT compiler, let alone the sort of sophisticated RAM managers we have now (I know not quite the same thing, just making a point). Also whilst I love my x10, even on the vanilla like OSs, e.g. cm7, the x10 lags unless pretty much maxed out with no apps installed. That is a hardware failure, our rather it's simply outdated. Finally while mediascape was laggy back then the x10 is capable currently of running most things from either 2.1 or even 1.6 relatively smoothly. If you were to compare things like quadrat scores you'd see a drastic improvement. In addition, I am hoping that the various tweaks available with different ROMs well help us to smooth the app in it's transition from eclair to gingerbread! Pvy, anything worthwhile to report?

For those who does not like the mediascape please don't pour cold water on our hopes. It was among the reasons why we bought the original x10 in the first place.
Remember the countless times their adverts have timescape and mediascape? so hush please and let us wait for the news from pvyparts.

hope OP not misunderstood my post lol. i was saying mediascape is really hard to port, because many other devs have tried before.
glad to see somebody is taking a look into it again, can't wait for good news to come!
honestly i hope timescape can be ported too! timescape on SE 2.3 looks totally nasty and it's extremely laggy..

I like this guy. Even I got my X10 because of mediascape and timescape and if someone manages to port back mediascape then I swear I'll never use any other music of photo viewing applications. That **** was the beast!

I like the fact that this is made as a mod instead of another rom, thanks op!
And I think you should change the Market icon in the next version, to the stock market icon. This one is confusing! xD
Okay will be working on it
And thanks a lot
I just realized that there were already too many roms so as a marketing statergy I targeted all ROM users
This and your other mod should really be in themes and apps not android development. Nice work, although I wont be trying, I'm using cm7.

Panorama app by SE

Checkout the market to find a new app by sonyericsson. It allows you to take panorama pictures by sweeping the phone (like Sony camera's).
It is still in beta, but it looks promising.

Great news! Excellent app! Thank you man!
can anyone upload apk here,though it specifically says it's for x10, I can't install that
I'd love to try it but alas, I can't find it.
Why people make useless threads without apks?
Do you think it's a bit stupid?
You are proud of yourself, that find good app and want shout about it in our sandbox? some people there behave themselves like children/
Cant seem 2 find it either... its either been removed or its only available in certain countries - can any1 upload here? Thanks
Well, it's here but apparently I can't use it since I don't have 2.1 :S

Here you go guys
Panorama beta - Free @ Android market
Doesnt work on TripnMiui1.5.6 im guessing as its 2.2 shame.
OP,
Dude, this app is awesome. I will use it a lot for a ton of things. Thanks for the news about the app.
Its almost worth it to go back to stay at 2.1. Lol

I'm using SE generic world 2.1 on an AT&T X10A, and Panorama Beta works fine. It's pretty basic and doesn't really have too many settings. One nice thing about it is that you can stop a sweep instead of having to complete a full one. This lets you have a picture that is less wide, but more customized to how you want to frame the panorama. This app will definitely do in a pinch.
Just have good lighting (outdoors is best), don't do your sweeps too quickly, and be as steady as you can. One thing I noticed is that when the sun is above and ahead of you, the panoramas can have shadowed banding...so keep the sun behind you and things are much better. I hope the final version will fix this.
For better quality panoramic pictures, I'll stick with my Sony DSC-TX7 camera. But it's great to see Sony Ericsson still supporting the X10 with cool little apps!
its not working on froyo Roms...
Trip's IRIS MIUI 1.6
Seems like it only works on the official 2.1. I'm really interested to see how this app develops.

Yeah, it will work only on Xperia X10 + Stock ROM. You can download the .apk from here, if interested.

Can you do the theme from phoenix rom for heinz 57 (with 2fast's permission of course). It looks so awesome but i just cant seem to stay stable on phoenix for the life of me.
What issue is it that you can't get stable with? As gas's rom was built from the same thing mine is. Along with the fact he has even went to putting some of the same stuff in it.
The only issue as of right now is swype which I know what it is. I just have to get that far.

REQ. & POLL.. Xperia S UI (FULL Xperience) to R800x 2.3.3

As title states. We all know the Xperia S UI (Full expiernce) has been ported to (almost) all Xperia PLAYs running 2.3.4. However those people running on Verizon are still stuck on 2.3.3 and are unable to flash the Xperia S UI as it causes a bootloop. There are threads that give just the home launcher and about 4 widgets but thats it. I would like to ask how many R800x users would like to see this ported to work on our 2.3.3 Xperia PLAYs? I would love to have it available as its a really slick user expiernce.
SO COUNT ME IN.. Really hope someone can port the XPERIA S UI to the R800x
I think most elements of Xperia S are not working just because of the fact that they were built for 2.3.4 and not 2.3.3. So it might take a lot of work to get the ENTIRE Xperia S spectrum working. I think the Timescape ROM that came out might have been based on the other Xperia's 2.3.3 firmware. I would like to see this in action though!

I realized that it is obviously 2.3.4 specific, and I do realize that there are not nearly as many Xperia PLAY users as there are SIM card based XPLAY users, but still I do hope that some nice indivdual would be willing to port the full experience to the CDMA R800x XPlays so that we too can enjoy the goodies..

[REQ] Mediascape Port

Hi, I've already requested this at the x10 forums but we hit a dead end in development so I figured I'd ask here;
I miss the look and functionality of Mediascape from 1.6 from the xperia x10, not sure how many of you have seen it before. I will post a video of it later. I would like a port of it to 2.3. Is this possible? I know that the stock music player now is probably faster but I still miss it and its functionality. Any devs out there care to shine some light on this? Or even just have a look at the previous attempt in the x10 apps and games section and see if they can help us out please? Thanks a lot in advance and if this is surplus then by all means this can be deleted!
