mrtb rom ( all custom rom with *.zip file/ not *.img file ) must flash on recovery mode. but, if that *.img file (ex: recoveryMOD.img) flash with sp flash tool. upgrade your recovery and you can flash all customROM.

Hello All,

Recently I bought a X18i from PandaWill (Sorry linking is not permitted for me at this moment)

This model is similar to Sony Xperia Arc. It has 2.3.4 Android and many features but It misses other for me important as Google Talk and other I would like to uninstall (chinese apps).

Anybody can help me for rooting this phone? I tried many methods for other models but I couldn't.

Is it possible to put other ROM than installed?

Thanks in advance
You mean you don't want to G-talk app in Chinese, but one in English, right? Then you can just uninstall it and then install a new one, it's easy job, and is there any problem to do this. You bought it from PandaWill? I know this website, one of my colleagues used to work there, you can contact with them if still have problem.

Hi iw4nk,

I've followed your instructions on flashing the rom but i must have made a mistake and now the device is stuck on the boot logo.

Can i somehow repair this?

    New Custom ROM for X18i

    thanks momofab, now i can flash my phone :D. i want share new custom rom for x18i from vness community.

    MrTB v5 ROM
    Link: ww*.mediafire.com/?j1l8vlac9az679e
    Changelog:
    - Android 2.3.6
    - Fix bug completely unable to connect to 3g sim sim contacts remaining. Now you surf the web without worry miss call.
    - Add boot function in the second 3g sim. With this function the 2 slots support 3g sim. You can completely change mount 2 sim 3g and connect with a simple click, no need to remove your sim change. This function is located in Settings -> Wireless and networking -> Mobile networks -> 3g Services -> 3g:
    + The default is sim slot 1 (the outermost slot), you can switch between two arbitrary sim slot.
    + If you select Off, 2 sim will only GSM status. This for anyone not using 3G, or when new users are turned off to help take the pin.
    - Update the latest app, update ad blocking hosts.
    - Fix the catalytic response, more app also dropped in the previous version (which can be related to an app that can not be DC and the system).
    - Do not have much time so the new version is just the frame, not the optimal lot, not beauty. Everything that you will be home next patch or ROM. Make sure if fully optimized, 2.3.4 and 2.3.6 stronger 5 more ^ ^!
    Note:
    - Do you leave out the background to help take the pin. Rom so when finished will have black T lockscreen. You only need to change the lockscreen wallpaper inside bt will return.
    - All other guidelines as the previous version.
    - If there is anything, report immediately to his home.
    - Fix widget sense: At the Root explorer -> system -> app, find the file and delete it fr.clockwidget.lpsense.odex reboot.

    i was tested :D. but some app is still with vnes language :( . sorry if my english is not good :p
