[Q] Error while installing custom roms - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On my Sony Ericsson W8 I can't install kyuaDroid, GingerXperia, MiniCM and etc. I can only install GingerDX and FroyoBread. When I try to install the roms which I mentioned above all (except GingerDX and FroyoBread) are giving error like this " This rom is not compactable with your baseband. Update first to M7XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015".
But I have the SAME baseband.
How to solve it ?
My W8 is rooted and has Unlocked bootloader. What should. I do ? I should change kernel ? Or something?
As I'm a noob I don't know How to solve this.. So please help me as soon as possible.

Wow, no one replied? I'm having the same problem mate...

some roms need to be installed with cwm not xrecv, and custom kernels too, perform a fullwipe before and after flashing any rom

I found the same problem. I use CWM and it works for me fine in installing different ROM's

They are some baseband problems if you don't update phone to 2.1.1.A.0.6 or 2.1.1.C.0.0!

Which rom you are using to unlock bootloader
It only works with stock rom
that's false information you have given. It will also work with custom ROM 2.2 2.3 as well -at least as far as unlocking by using flashtool 0.5.3 is concerned.
They want you to stick with stock ROM 2.1 because there's less risk of screwing things up. There are various persons who have unlocked their bootloader using custom ROM such as gingerdx and gingerexperia.
There are never any official words that come out and say "don't use custom ROM" but if you look at the code where they patch things you only see that they need a stock kernel and rooted system to work with, nothing more than that!

Kernel nAa is for MiniCM7 ROMs (and based-on ROMs). So You can choose between f.eg. original MiniCM7 2.1.9, iROM v005, GingerXperiaRay.
The ROM You mentioned is for ALFS kernel
If You unlocked Your bootloader it will be unlocked, even if You flash stock ROM. But if You do so You will have to change kernel and root Your phone again, cause stock ROM works only on stock kernel

No 3g signal after successful unlock GDX | alfs | 015

Hey guys. Sorry if this is the wrong section.
I have an e15a xperia x8 11v14 (perfectly unlockable)
The thing is that i wanted to update to gingerdx v28 from scratch so i went back to stock settings ( rom 2.1, no addons, original baseband, etc).
I followed all the steps to do a clean install
Installed e15a 015 baseband
Unlocked the phone with s1tool and msm7227_semc (before doing this it still showed e15a model, after this it started showing e15i)
Installed alfs kernel
Installed rom Gingerdx
Installed addons
blah blah
Pretty straight forward :good:
Now the thing is that i dont have 3g signal at all, so i went to check the baseband and it was half correct, like i said before it ended in 015 but my model said it was an e15i. Correct me if i'm wrong but i think e15i are models from europe so that would explain why 3g would't work (i'm from south america).
I tried to restore the phone using seus or pcc, with no luck (it kept saying that my phone was updated ).
I got all stock kernels, roms, basebands from stickies in XDA so i don't think that could be the problem.
Somehow AFTER i unlocked the phone the model changed and i cant change it back (tried rooting, flashtool, relock and so on)
Everything else works like a charm, very smooth, very fast, no complaints.
Any ideas about how change with another method cuz now i can't go back to my original e15a model.
PS: apn settings are OK too
Well i dunno if somehow this will be useful to anyone but i SOLVED the problem.
These are the steps i followed (IN THIS EXACT ORDER)
Before unlocking it root it with flashtool
Verify with s1tool it's locked (here's the post i used to do the unlocking http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436957)
If everything is cool proceed to this:
install baseband 015 (for e15a model in my case)
install alfs kernel (latest for GDX)
install rom (latest GDX)
install alfs addon
full wipe
wipe davilk cache
wipe battery cache
enjoy
Anyway thanks to all for reading this post, hope it helps to people with my same problem.
PROBLEM SOLVED

Hey pal !
If you bricked your phone you should check this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011071
About the baseband, first u should check which baseband is correct for you. Phones in America use different frequency ranges than phones in Europe so, to begin with i'd need u to tell me where the phones was sold...anyway, most cooked roms need 015 baseband to be flashed instead of the 006. Check in your phone settings if your device model is E15a (a is for America) or E15i (i is for International, but mostly Europe).
For example: if your phone is E15a you should flash E15a_X8a_2.1.1.A.0.6_Baseband_015 in order to install any cooked rom.
You can find almost everything you'll need here

BTW just in case check this thread to avoid hard bricking http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1481630

Hello,
I have no problem with 3G, but problem with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, both not running. I have a Xperia X8 e15a, with Cyanogenmod 7.1 and FXP030 kernel, do I need to install stock kernel?
Or if I install Alfs kernel would it slove my problem?
My smatphone was unlock successful, from 11W12.
Thanks.

Hey pal !
If I were you i'd set everything to stock (kernel, rom and so on -REMEMBER TO BACKUP YOUR DATA BEFORE-) and retake all the steps to do a clean install according to the original post requirements. Check your corresponding ROM post
Hope it helps
See ya

Hello Destroseitor,
I install, Cyanogenmod based on Guide install Cyanogenmod from Stock 2.1.
Ok I will set everything to stock, and than can I install the updated rom like Cyanogenmod 7.1(or could be GingerDX)?
Thanks.

Hey buddy
I strongly recommend gingerdx, it's the most stable rom i've tested and you have the choice to use a stock kernel or a modded one (like alfs or naa), plus there's a great guide to install it.

@LilleJohn if you are trying to install JB 4.3 remember that you can't use a kernel for JB 4.1.2. This will give you bootloop for sure
