Nice work done so far :)
The key to making them work seems to be editing the build.prop to tell the phone the manufacturer is Sony Ericsson. Perhaps you would like to add this step in the 1st post.

May I ask what is the function of "BACKUP & RESTORE" ?

Can I just install "TIMESCAPE" without install "BACKUP & RESTORE",
add just add the two lines in "build.prop" ?

Thanks!

With backup and restore...
You can backup your contacts, sms, call logs on one rom and then flash any rom and restore all the above using this app. :)
Yes u can also install timescape only.
And u dnt have to add anything in build.prop file

In the build.prop file find this line
Ro.product.manufacturer = somevalue
You have to change this ''some value'' to ''Sony Ericsson.
So it wld look like this.
ro.product.manufacturer = Sony Ericsson

U hv to chng dis value evn if u r installing only timescape, oderwise fb dsnt work :)

At this moment backup and restore seems useless to me.
I decide not to install it. Thank you very much!

don't install through recovery on x10
it changes ur screen density to 120 (default is 240)
and the device name in build.prop is mini pro instead of x10

I can confirm that twitter kind of work:
You can sign in and updating status but you don't get any feeds (pictures with tweets) its just the picture there saying add o social network (I have already done that)

Any news about the widget issue?
