Make Your Xperia X10 Look Like Gingerbread

http://www.androidguys.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/screenshot-7.pngNo, you can't have Gingerbread on your Xperia X10 yet and it'll probably take a long time before you can, but you can apply a custom ROM with a Gingerbread theme. I've made a mod of the AOSP ROM we've talked about earlier to make it look like Gingerbread. The screenshots are a bit outdated, I've modified the notification bar today.
It resembles Gingerbread, but it's just a mod of the 2.1 AOSP ROM from Jerpelea and zdzihu.
Here's a mod of the AOSP ROM. What I've basically done is added a Gingerbread theme, add some Gingerbread apps and a few other things. It's based on version 008a of the AOSP ROM.
This ROM has practically the same issues as the AOSP ROM, meaning:
  • The camera crashes in the Advanced Settings
  • Video recording doesn't work
  • The camera isn't usable in other applications, like the Barcode Scanner for example.
  • The Gingerbread launcher doesn't work yet. Work in progress.
As you can see, these are primarily issues with the camera driver, which needs to be rewritten. For details on installing this, continue reading.
To install the ROM, you need to have a custom recovery, in this case xRecovery, installed. Here's how to do that:
