[Q] GingerXperia V8 - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have problems adding a widget it seems that i cant see the widget that i installed also when i try to add built-in widget on the screen it will say "no room .... " can someone help me? thanks.

Try this
You should do full wipe first then install custom zip gingerxperia v8 then install custom zip timescape by b2005.zip then full wipe again then you reboot
See if this works for or not

Finally...
I was able to get it right this time, and it seems to be fully working.
Also, i noticed GingerDX is smoother than android, and that was one of the reasons why i wanted to replace it.

Um,if I solved a little of your problem could you click the thanks button

Problem installing themes on lg optimus 2x!!!!

i try to install themes to my phone and when install finished when it boots and patern screen appears it shows me a message like sorry we can't load fonts,clock,and other stuff and i don't have any way to see desktop...i must turn off the phone and turn on in the recovery mode and restore it...what its going wrong???
It would be more clear if you mention which firmware you are running, which theme you are trying to flash etc
agree with mjuksel. Most likely an incompatible theme.
sorry.. you have a point...ok so i'm not 100% sure of what i say but i give it a try..i use froyo 2.2.2 with kernel 2.6.32.9 and and the clockworkmod is 4.3.24...if you want you more info tell me..i tried to install the blue elegance theme from here...
CWM 4.3.24 ??? are you sure ??
and your ROM are
Stock ?
Modaco ?
Fear ?
other ?
yes i ckeck it again and its 4.3.24 and its modaco
ok , I don't know this version
try with another version
Hey he mean Rom Manager 4.3.24......
yes thats what i mean..tnx intelmaster...rom manager is 4.3.24...i tried again and no hope...it cant boot because maybe it wont have security copy files....i dont...if you want more ask me something else please tell me where to look...tnx a lot for your help...
you gotta find a theme which is based on the framework of the rom u are using ...
(a theme is nothing else than modified system apps ....)
Hey he mean Rom Manager 4.3.24......

Click to collapse
OK , Rom Manager and CWM are differents , he say in second post : "...the clockworkmod is 4.3.24..."

hello new x8 users read this and you will know a lot more part 2

okay,welcome to part 2 of hello new x8 users read this and you will know a lot more
i think we left off at installing xrecovery.
controls for xrecovery:up/down:the volume buttons
ok:home button
back:back button (obviously)
if you have installed a rom (if not click this to go to the gingerdx v012 forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486 )
great.donsnt matter if you installed ginger dx or a different one (i have tested ginger dx and froyobread they are both great) what you need to do is go into install custom zip and go into choose from sdcard. go to the bottom and your installed rom should be there click it it and if it says yes or no click yes.before you do plz make sure you do a backup before you do anything (im not to blame if you break anything or do anything wrong cuz this is how i did it and i did it with 2 roms)
so you should have your rom on.click full wipe (btw this will erase all of your data on your PHONE not your sdcard.only do this if you really want to install the rom cuz if you dont wanna do the full wipe when you reboot your phone will freeze and what you have to do then is take the battery out and either restore back to stock 2.1 eclair or do full wipe and reboot. then it will work.first boot of a rom usally takes 2-3 mins if not more.btw iv a little birdy told me sony ericsson are not making any more updates for our x8 so get these roms whilst you still can. if you have any questions post a reply.and press the thanks button if i helped.dont be ungratefull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Q] FroyoPro 1.1 Apps Problem

I've had FroyoPro ROM in my X8 since today. It works really good, but it has one problem: When I try to install any app that doesn't come from the Android Market (That means, from my SD card), the software freezes, crashes and reboots. I have checked the permission to install apps that doesn't come from the Market and the same apps were installed without problem in the 2.1 Stock Android Version. Can anyone help me?
am using it too i dnt hav such issues,
try doing a full wipe/factory reset from xrecovery and install again,see if the problem persists

[Q] Just want a phone that works :(

So I bought a Samsung Galaxy S from ebay, which had been rooted, and is currently running Jelly Bean with apex launcher.
I have had so many problems and had to flash the new rom on it countless times now and I'm sick of losing everything every time and never trusting my phone. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong?
I had a notification for an update for Apex Launcher a couple of days ago through the play store, so I updated it. It then would kept failing, and telling me "Apex Launcher is not responding". It wouldn't even respond long enough for me to turn it off normally... I had to take the battery out in order to turn the power off.
This was not the first time Apex had crashed on me so I thought I'd download Go Launcher instead. It all seemed fine, however it started to randomly rearrange all my icons and then wouldn't let me customise it at all - couldn't add new app shortcuts, widgets, or rearrange anything whatsoever.
I decided to factory reset and wipe the caches etc and flash the original rom on it for now, but not sure if I should try and remove Apex somehow and use something else or if it's the rom I'm using or what?!
Would anyone be able to help??
sorry forgot to mention that I am almost a complete noob at this and flashing a new rom is about the only thing I can do, I have no idea what all the different roms are etc I just flash the one that was already saved on the memory card that came with the phone!

downlaod a more stable ro(cm9 maybe or ics rom,I dont know because I dont have i9000 but i9001),just go to i9000 android development and download a rom.Then install it in recovery but before installing wipe everything(data,cache and dalvik),u will see that in how to install section.Just follow the instructions
Hey,
Start from the beginning.
Download JVZ or JPU rom (Gingerbread of Froyo), flash via Odin. It is really simple. Root it and install CWM.
Next Download pure CM10, install it via CWM. Only the your system will be clean and fresh.
Hey
If u hav I9000 then downgrade to 2.3.6(link given below..)..that should solve ur issues..

[Q] (NEED HELP) Phone restart itself into recovery after installing ICS/JB ROM's

Hi Seniors,
This became like a mystery for me..please help me to solve it.
Issue is like this if I install any custom or stock Gingerbread ROMS by phone works like a butter, no issue at all I can say.
But when I install any ICS or JellyBean ROM's it starts creating pain in my neck.
If I am using my phone it never restarts itself but when I lock my phone screen and keep it my pocket M finding that my phone is restarting into recovery mode itself.
Now here comes the strange part...If I play music using any music player and lock my screen it works fine,its not restarting itself ...but once I stop that music player and lock my handset screen in idle mode it goes to recovery in few secs
This only happens if I upgrade to ICS or JellyBean ROM's
One more issue...my wifi works fine If am having GingerBread install on my phone but when I install ICS/JB I cant even start it.
Have tried a lot to get it fixed....but
.....Even I want to taste ICS/JB Rom's like u guys...Please Help Your Rookie.
Thanks & Regards

Hey EwOkie,
Thanks for your courtesy mate...really appreciate it,
So here we go,
I had stock GB 2.3.6 ROM installed on my phone ;ie GT-I9000_XEU_I9000XXJW4_I9000OXAJW4_I9000XXJW4.zip,
after that I rooted my phone using CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS,
then I did factory reset,wipe cache and dalvik cashe and installed GamerzRom v11.0 which is a GB ROM,
so far no issue...wifi is working fine,phone is not at all giving me any auto restart issue...its was working like a charm,
then I found ICS_F4k_MOD_v4.0.4_I9000_r3.zip which is an ICS ROM,
I did factory reset,wipe cache and dalvik cache,the I installed ICS_F4k_MOD_v4.0.4_I9000_r3.zip using CWM Recovery console,
it was booted fine to home screen...later on I tried connecting my phone using my wifi router I found that WiFi was not switching on at all,
I locked my phone using lock button then after few secs I am finding my phone is restarting itself in recovery mode,
restarted my back to normal and again the same issue,
I ignored it,
Then I downloaded C-RoM Mix v7 Latest 4.2.1.zip in which had a wifi bug fix,
I did factory reset,wipe cache and dalvik cache,
I flashed it using clockworkmod recovery and had eactly that same issue which I had on ICS ROM,
for WIFI issue I tried flashing wififix.zip and found no resolution,
my phone went into boot loop of Samsung Logo,
then I flashed it back to original stock rom GB 2.3.6 and my phone started working like the way it should be.
This is the whole story
I moved from GB to ICS and then to JB.
Seriously brother I have no idea why its causing this weird issue...this is why I am looking for help from AndroidXperts on XDA site
Kindly help me to sort it out.
Thanks & Regards

Ok first up thanks for the info....
When doing a complete wipe before installing another rom make sure you wipe all 4 :
Data / Factory Reset
Cache Partition
Dalvik Cache
Battery Stats
Unless the Developer for the Rom States otherwise.
I know that there are a few ICS Roms that have a lot of bugs please check Info on them before Downloading
Should tell you whats working and whats notto save hassle
As I really only use GB Roms (my own preference)
Might help to try different Modems for your Romas this can help signal/network strength, where do you stay?
Yeah flashing back to 2.3.6 will work all the time as its basically stock.
No matter what Custom Rom I try I always flash JVU 2.3.6 then Root it > then the Custom Rom I want
I never just overwrite it with another Rom...
Hopefully someone with the same Rom as yourself may help as I dont want to give wrong info ....
Or Ask on the Rom site the issue your having with it
If you do need my help ... just ask

Hi EwOkie,
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I am followed everything what u just mentioned in ur reply allready...but no go
Me & my GF we both have i9000 and I have followed same installation process on both the phones...her phones works like a charm but mine is like an incomplete soul.
One more thing mate,I really dont understand this ......can you tell me what difference it makes to have JVU 2.3.6 or some other version...how exactly its works....u know what I mean to say.
No idea why we use 2.3.6 JVU with CF Root (Kernel for Recovery) we just do ,, suppose its the best to start with before flashing a Custom Rom
So your partners phone works ok and yours doesnt.. did you try using the PIT File and re-partition?
Check my signature at bottom its a HOW TO Guide incase you get lost
As I says I dont have a lot of experience with ICS or JB Roms as the ones i flashed in the past werent as stable and had some bugs in them
Thats why i stuck with GB Roms
plz help me
today i install a custom rom lollipop in sony xperia c3 dual
