Sony Ericsson released a new app called “Panorama beta” that is available for free in the Market.
The app is very easy to use.
You have 4 arrows, on for each direction. To make a panorama you just have to click on an arrow and move the X10 in that direction and it will make a nice panorama.
I already tested the app myself and I have to say it works fine. Even if you shake the X10 a bit while making the panorame the pic will be fine.

For now the app is only available for the X10 with Android 2.1.

We just recognized that se-store.co.uk will offer the new XPERIA Pro in late July (UK). But as you know: SE never knows when they’ll release something or anything

The Sony Ericsson Pro is a full qwerty-keyboard phone with HD-video recording, GreenHeart features (for example charger), WiFi (well, nothing new for Android phones) and with Mobile BRAVIA engine.

It has been a little while since Sony Ericsson unlocked the bootloader for their new Xperia devices, so what has been happening since we last looked?

Xperia Play:

Since getting root, there hasnt been any major dev activity, which Im really surprised about. Perhaps there is ROM development going on, but it’s all in secret until it is all stable enough for users to use

Xperia Arc:

Well, the devs have gained root as well, but now it appears like the first ROM is on its way thanks to the dev group known as “FreeXperia”, who was responsible for a lot happening to the Xperia X10:

They aim to bring CM7.0.3 to the Arc. The latest news is that the new prelink map is ready to match 2/2 memory, which basically means that you can now use the same kernel as stock, rather than using their custom kernel for this ROM. A big improvement of yesterdays news of custom kernels not working with the SE ROM.

If you want to change your kernel, read this topic before starting. It will show you how to back up and restore the original kernel should you not want to use the custom kernel again.

A ROM preview is available (you might need the custom kernel?), but be advised: it is very buggy and remains untested (at time of writing). The ROM dev thread is here: http://forum.xda-dev…d.php?t=1102523

Adobe and Qualcomm have been talking recently, and it seems that it is in a bid to get flash more optimized, whilst bringing flash to previous phones that didnt have it before.

What caught our eye, was they are supporting:

• Snapdragon MSM7×27  (for those who dont know what phones have those processors, they include the  X10 Mini, X10 Mini Pro and X8), which should support the web browser side of things
• And  Snapdragon MSM8×55 (basically, most of the new Xperia range), which will enable HD video playback.

You can find a full list here of what phones contain which processor.

There are a couple of things that are left unclear:

• Why is the Xperia X10 left out of the list?
• When will it happen?
• Will the flash plugin now be Android 2.1 compatible, rather than Android 2.2?

In any event, I have tried to find out if the X10 can have flash, but as I said earlier: it can only have it if it runs Android 2.2, so hopefully it is available when X10 gets Android 2.3 update
