Hi.
I have the Xperia X8. some time ago I did the procedure of upgrading from 2.1 to 2.2. since then I tried at least 3 different roms (2.2 and 2.3), and with every one of them I have the same problem: every couple of days (maybe less, maybe more) the phone resets it self without any reason. It doesn't happen while I'm using it. The phone can lay on a table beside me, with no application running (at least not those that I activate manually), and suddenly I hear/see that a reset occurred. I have a suspicion that it's somehow related to receiving calls/SMS, but I can't be sure.
for the past couple of days I use GingerDX v018, and already I've seen the reset at least 5 times.
I formated every available partition (system,data,cache,sdcard), did the wipe. This time I didn't install any apps. And still it happens.
I don't care about features, graphics, games. I just want a smooth and stable operation.
What can I do?
please help.
Flash stock rom and go to store then replece your X8,its realy simple.

replace it saying what? it's not that it was happening with the stock rom. It started after upgrading to 2.2
Try other rom like GC7.4 or GXv10 or v11.............No one of users of that roms has such problems...but GDX is a little bit buggy

found them and tried.
GXv11 - didn't connect to network. in "baseband" section was shown "unknown".
GC7.4 - didn't even start. the logo was running in loops.
any other ideas?
im having the same problem as u. it always restart at its own. now im using stock rom, the restart still happen but not as often as using custom rom. i wanna use stock for a week tried to ask the store to give me a new x8 if it still happens..
i read in some forum that this problem is cause by the memory card. they said that after they change their memory card with another,it did not happen anymore. i dont have any extra memory card now,if u have,u can give it a try and tell us...

does it depend on the SDcard brand/type?
I formated mine yesterday, but this didn't help.
can you put a link to the thread that talks about it?
thanks.
---------- Edited ----------
I do have another SD. I'll try your solution. thanks.
btw, the most "stable" rom on my device is MiniCM6-1.0.2. the reboots happen less often.

if I understood correctly, there maybe an issue with SDcard's speed/class. I don't know if I have a class 4 (or better) card. Will see.
is there a way to log these resets?
some kind of app maybe?
for example - I want to know how many times a day the phone was booted...
there is an app reboot logger in market. just download it,now trying

Interesting. More information please? Perhaps the developer was doing something contrary to xda rules? Not sure you will get a straight answer on this one though as I would have expected them to lock and rename the thread if they felt the need to justify or explain the cause. By deleting it though, well I get from that anyway, that they would be happy to never speak of it again.

Is there any way to get CM7 for the Hero with Sense?
If not, there is Gingerbread with Sense. I found Sensible Gingerbread on the Wiki.

When I flashed the ROM earlier it would not work, but I'll try again later.
Check out the Hero Development forum. There's a gingerbread ROM with sense 3.5 called Zero Hero. I don't even like sense on our Heros and i think its pretty sweet.

If the browser doesn't work download Opera or Dolphin. Will work just fine. We optimized that rom to run pretty damn good in these old heros. Just don't fill up the home screens and tons of apps or it will bog down.

Thanks for the reply. I'll try Dolphin since I've used it before and it was okay. I don't know why, but I prefer the original Browser.
EDIT: Oh and btw, WiFi was not working for me on Zero Hero Sense. Is there a way to fix that?
hey just an fyi we dont talk about rocksteady around here the guy who made the ports was bannanas to say the least matt knows what im talking about lol.
Oh ok sorry.
The Sensible Gingerbread says to flash FR-recovery. What is that? I currently have ROM Manager and the Clockwork Recovery. Whenever I try to flash Sensible Gingerbread with that, it reboots into recovery every time I try to reboot it.
firates is just a tool that partitions your sd card for better memory management theres a thread in development on how to set it up.

Is there something different that I need to do for Sensible Gingerbread than I do for most roms?
The original thread says
How to install(might be a waste of time)
wipe ALL, flash FR-recovery, wipe ALL, reboot recovery, flash ROM, reboot. It is also recommended that you have an s-off bootloader, since FR is a recovery modification. It installed fine for the testers, so YMMV. But be warned, bricks are your fault, not someone elses Also, the CPU frequencies are now 245xxx (needs to be fixed, keep reading) - 729xxx (careful, some phones can only handle 691xxx). You need an overclock method (setCPU, overclock widget) to change the frequencies to 264xxx - 691xxx.

Heipp bro! its happen to me before, i guess i've figured it out, its happen when your phone apps still "Running" using your SD card, try to close all running app [app you installed to SD Card i mean] plug usb again. see how it works. or try Turn off usb debugging mode [Untick]

Not really sure 11w18 safe or not bro, some people said they get hardbrick
ANYTHING UNDER 11W29 IS safe, so 11w18 is fine. people who were on 11w18 bricked cause they didn't read the instructions properly

I just found this, Perhaps it will solve your problem:
fohdeesha said:
Ah interesting, I would think i9000 bootloaders on an i897 would CAUSE issues!
I put together a little package for anyone with an i897 captivate still having shutdown issues and is still frustrated. Give this a try, I have a feeling they will disappear.
Use this Odin one click to wipe/reset your phone to the latest official rom, uckk4. This one click INCLUDES the latest bootloaders ever released for our phone, both primary and secondary. These are the bootloaders that have made mine and others shutdown issue disappear. This is completely safe to one-click no matter what is on your phone right now, just use a reliable USB cable like with any other flash. No matter what state your phone is in, if you can get into download mode, this will wipe your phone to 2.3.5 with 2.3.5 bootloaders
http://fohdeesha.com/data/other/android/i897uckk4 with latest BL.zip
After you've done that, use this odin package to install CWM recovery for the stock 2.3.5 installation you now have
http://fohdeesha.com/data/other/android/uckk4 CWM recovery.zip
Now you can get into CWM and flash whatever rom you want! ICS, jellybean, whatever. And you now have the latest 2.3.5 bootloaders and your shutdown issue should be gone. I've done this several times to several captivates now with zero issues. I hope this helps someone!

Yeah I remember now. I9000 ROMs aren't being ported anymore, are they? I know flashing a I9000 ROM is quite the bad idea on our phone (even tho some people reported it worked fine) but it makes me wonder if using a I9000 ROM on I9000 bootloaders would be fine for those with SoD issue on JB where only flashing the I9000 BLs don't solve their problem.. (PS.: Don't attempt this if you don't know what you're doing lol). I'm thinking the home button won't work and screen might not be oriented correctly tho.

In my sig, there's another possible fix. Seems to have work for many other users but I'm not sure if a hardware issue can be fixed by flashing. The only thing I know for sure is that I9000 seems to fix most people' SoD

CM10 nightly build? and there's always a flashing guide in the ROM's thread.
I made this thread so users who tested basebands to provide some useful reviews (battery backup, performance, bloatware, etc) for every user who want to know which baseband, new or old, has what he`s looking for or the baseband just came up and it`s new and he wants to know about it.
I tested MBM-XXLQI from Macedonia recently and all I have to say it brings nothing new about battery backup on the contrary it seems worse than DDULP8 from India or XXLQG-ITV from Italy, and in addition it has a lot more bloatware too.
I am going to test the new VSLPA from Argentina(moviestar) to see what it brings new as it has the latest build date and changelist, and I`ll provide a review in a day or two. You are free to do the same as we may have different opinions.
I am using VSLPA from Argentina from 1 day now and I have to say it provides the best battery backup till now, only 1% consumed over the night.
About performance, it`s pretty much like the other firmwares, tough i notice that lag is slightly reduced in this one or it may be placebo effect, don`t know yet.
Go try it yourself and report back to see if you have a different opinion from mine
I take my words back VSLPA is the best build by samsung for our device since they released Jb for us. I rooted, flashed cocore8.2, removed some bloats, instaled no-frills, set pegasusq+sio, powersave and I drained the battery till it shut down. After I let it charge full I powered it up and I couldnt believe my eyes how fast it was and still is, this build is LAG FREE, the dial pad opens in instant just like cyanogenmod. At first I tought that maybe it's just an one time event but not it still does that and is insanely fast, stable, smooth maybe then most of custom too (no offense to any dev). I know it is hard to believe but please try it for yourself and you'll be surprised.
I'll provide the list of bloats removed when I have time if it is of any use

This is as if you were explaining you saw a ghost.
Are you sure about this? Cause I heard similar things for previous FWs before, even though they all lagged like hell.
And 7 hours ago you were saying the opposite, how's that possible? What exactly fixed it, when it was the same when you first tried it?
Anyways I'm on GB now, got burned once and now I want to be sure if it's really lag free before I upgrade.

If your device is network free(meaning that another carrier sym is working) you can flash any firmware you want for our device with odin. Juat download it from samsung-updates, unrar it, put the tar file in pda section of odin and hi start.

@TheBeast I told you all the steps I have made. I don't think it's so hard so you can't flash it yourself

Upgrading isn't hard. Downgrading is a pain in the ass.

This is as if you were explaining you saw a ghost.
Are you sure about this? Cause I heard similar things for previous FWs before, even though they all lagged like hell.
And 7 hours ago you were saying the opposite, how's that possible? What exactly fixed it, when it was the same when you first tried it?
Anyways I'm on GB now, got burned once and now I want to be sure if it's really lag free before I upgrade.

First of all GB and JB are different in every aspect so you can`t compare one to the other. First time it was just after I flashed it then I did all the things I said ( root, flash cocore kernel, changed governors and I/O etc. ) and after that i used it till it shut down and then while it was turned off I let it full charge, after that i booted into recovery wiped cache and dalvik cache and reboot and that was all.
But you should never expect that JB to be like GB.
If you don`t like stock i suggest you to upgrade from gb to jb then flash CM 10.1 from Team Canjica or if you want stock based Roms try Harshjelly or SamiOS.
Before you do all the things read some guide about how to flash with odin, how to root jb shaan`s guide and some more if needed.
If you do some research before you should not have problems
Goodluck

Why would you want to downgrade? First read guide about Odin and then go and read Harshjelly thread first then flash his rom and from there on should be easier to learn about governors,I/O schedulers,kernel etc. After you think you have a good knowledge base and you`re still not happy with you`re android you can move on to CyanogenMod 10.1 of Team Canjica(19.10 nightly is the most stable version).
Goodluck

Thanks, but been there, done that. All I'm saying is that I doubt it's lag free, I did try various firmwares, kernels and stuff but 5 sec delay when opening apps and lag in games, videos, UI is so bad that it's unbearable. That's why I had to downgrade, which is a much complicated process which frankly I don't want to repeat. That's why I want to make sure the new firmware is lag and delay free before I upgrade again.
And I'm pretty sure JB isn't supposed to be that bad, despite the fact that S Advance isn't much of a phone.

In cyanogenmod you wont encounter any kind of lag. So you can flash VSLPA via odin then flash cwm temporary make a backup then root it play with it a day or two and see how it goes and if you dont like it restore from backup then flash cyanogendmod 10.1 and i guarantee that you wont encounter any kind of lag there.
And btw id you want to thank me for any help just hit Thanks button and I`ll know

I take my words back VSLPA is the best build by samsung for our device since they released Jb for us. I rooted, flashed cocore8.2, removed some bloats, instaled no-frills, set pegasusq+sio, powersave and I drained the battery till it shut down. After I let it charge full I powered it up and I couldnt believe my eyes how fast it was and still is, this build is LAG FREE, the dial pad opens in instant just like cyanogenmod. At first I tought that maybe it's just an one time event but not it still does that and is insanely fast, stable, smooth maybe then most of custom too (no offense to any dev). I know it is hard to believe but please try it for yourself and you'll be surprised.
I'll provide the list of bloats removed when I have time if it is of any use
Sry for the way I express myself but english is not my native language
Goodluck and don't think about it just flash it and see for yourself

thanks for your detail review! will flash it. But i have a question here, if i have flash VSLPA stock ROM, then i flash a custom ROM built on DDLUP, will that custom ROM run on VSLPA baseband?
