[Q] Nybody Know how To rename the builderID in settings menu? - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just to make it complete...(personal)
I edited build.prop and renamed from Cynogenmod to Se but nothing changed...

There's another build.prop in the bin folder. Change that too.
Sent from my X8 that is soon going to be replaced with a Samsung Galaxy Nexus/S II

I understand the X8 bit but the ANDROID bit, well ....I can't speak no longer.
Don't let crApple get to you! It may be the hype now, but Android is far superior now and always shall be.
If you get a phone, try WP7 or Symbian. Don't get IOS or BlackSh!tty.
Just My Opinion

only reason why im doing it, is cuz of ics, i just cant wait 3 months or so for it to be released on the sgs2 =/
Not to troll or anything, I think the Gnex is a great phone also but I read up on that forum that a lot of people are also having some screen issues with that phone.

Same here. There will be some beneficial changes & fine-tuning, but I think it's mainly hype over having the next new thing. Same reason iFans stand in line for hours to get the new fruit phone that has a few slight differences, lol I'm actually not looking forward to ICS too much just because I foresee a lot of app compatibility issues.

I played with galaxy nexus and its an awesome phone, ics is the shizzle...the screen is also a lot better than the gs2 (more vibrant)(resolution) also there is great development going on for the gn...I would buy it, but non contract price is ridiculous ...so ill pass....plus we should see a leak of ics soon...even better galaxy s3 shows her body and talents
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
If you were using a g2x I could see paying the off contract price for a GN, but if you are using a SII is it that hard to wait 2 or 3 months for an off contract international SIII?

QUESTION OF THE DAY: Bored?
(updated)
I read a book when I get bored.
I have a question: I have a feeling that the stability of CyanMobile keeps deteriorating by the day. I'm not installing anything. I just use these apps: Maxthon Browser, Wordfeud, Amazon Kindle, Phone and Messaging.
If was working fine till yesterday with the occasional slowdowns. Today, the phone froze while I was turning a page on the Kindle app. Then after sometime when I ended a call there was a black screen and the phone rebooted.
I'm using reVo A without any scripts. I do not have a lot of apps so no a2sd scripts either. Any suggestions?

No they aren't. Xperia Play isn't getting ICS. They say it's because of the games compatibility, but I don't think that it is so big problem. Games can be updated...

No its because they believed that the requirements were too great for a gaming phone. They thought there would be performance issues running ICS and playing PlayStation games.

Sony said that they have learned from their mistakes that they made with X10 and X8. They will built their software on top of android instead of including it with android. Which makes it much easier to update. This is what I red in a dutch magazine

I did, compare any 4.2 rom with any 4.0 rom, and then compare both with 2.3 4.2 is the most sluggish of them, not developers fault of course, no one cares about low end devices anymore especially google, nobody is going to make a mobile os optimized for a device with such limited resources as galaxy mini, hopefully I will get new phone next month, but till then I have to wait.

age got nothing to do with summer job, if you really wanted new phone you would work for it instead of counting on your parents... i was 15 when i picked my 1st summer job, was able to get a pair of nice shoes that i always wanted after that, regret nothing it also helped me to learn how to be responsible, and i'm sure that if you really wanted new phone, you would find time to work on holidays... even cutting neighbors lawn, or washing cars few evenings a week
