[Q] What are the mostly used [ROM'S]? - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone Im a new member in this forum, Im just asking suggestion if what is the best ROM to use and has no bug and the market is all okay?

im using GingerDX v019 and i find this to be a great rom.
i also tried FroyoBread v023 and that was also good!

I'm using froyopro v001, i havnt found any problems with it and it's really fast and smooth scrolling, best one i have used so far

And that's why you had to open an extra thread?
Three possibilities ...
1. You did NOT perform a "Full Wipe (Factory Reset)" in CWM after you flashed GingerDX.
Reboot your phone into ClockworkMod Recovery and do the full wipe if you left it out.
2. You did NOT create a Google account (Market won't work without a Google account being in use).
Register yourself a account with Google (click the "Sign up for a new Google Account") and set it up on your phone.
Edit: if you already have a Google account, then just set it up on your phone.
3. Try using Market Enabler (Google for "Market Enabler for Android")
And being a wee bit more specific about the problem you're trying to solve would help as well.

When I download it says " Error Download" something like that got any idea about this problem?

GingerDX (Froyobread in the past)... always newest version...
And on the Alf's kernel now...

I also vote for GingerDX 19. Using it trouble free.

I use GingerXperia v11 and it's awesome!
But NobodyAtall's MiniCM7 is great too!

The best rom is MiniCM7.
Sent from my X8 using XDA App

Best Froyo ROM's: Froyobread/FroyoPro
Best Gingerbread ROM's: GingerDX, GingerCruzt

try kuyadroid build v 4.3.233, it is so smooth and stable.

Have tried each and every rom available in XDA, these guys are awesome but GingerDx if the best that i have tried, I have 3 xperia X8 with me and each has 3 different Rom
GingerDx, GingerXperia and FDXperience
But have found GingerDx and FDXperience the best of all,
In MiniCM FC was found with some app, so didnot continue with it.

Im gonna try all your suggestions im currently using GDX v019 and I also tried the iDroid v2 lol iPhone style.
Can you guys share the applications and games that you are using?if its okay
#Peace!

i tried the gingerDX but i have battery drain all the time kuyadroid if i turn off the fhone then turn it the launcher gets FC all the time, the best rom i find and already have is FroyoPro very stable & quick

In GingerDX try to full charge first then go to xrecovery and Wipe Battery Stats, thats what I did to get rid of the battery drain

Try MiniCM. It is smooth and there is no bugs and all things works fine

What's the problem? you can't open the market, or what?
Have you tried re-install? I ran into some bugs the first time i installed GDX, but after doing a full wipe on xRecovery and then re-installing v019, the whole system just works fine, no bugs, no crashes, including market...
I tried to download the facebook for android phone in the market but it says "Error downloading" something like that but if I use the browser the internet is fine, got any idea about this problem guys?
Wifi is not that stable for me. Sometimes I need to turn it off and turn it on again manually.

BTW I've got GDX V019 on my X8.

I have never had any problems with GingerDX v.019 up to now.
But note that I also use LinuxDX with it.
if u have connect with ad hoc try for not protec wifi with password or set in WEP not WPA2
Got connected for the first time using WEP.
But then X8 got rebooted suddenly. Now mobile is showing 'Network not in Range!!!'.
bugs in gdx
the main bug in gdx is that it does not runs HD games like sandstorm
otherwise its good

ROMs are killing me

hi all , i am using GDX v21 it's great and all but the problem is ...
-it keeps rebooting by itself!
-at times when the screen timeout it wont turn on ...i am forced to remove the battery to reboot the phone
at first i thought it'a bug so i full wiped my phone restored with tita backup
about a day later boom! it happened again!! AND I CANT TAKE IT!!
it happens when i
-open wifi
-downloading songs
-or open wifi in general
THAT IS WHY IT'S SO ANNOYING I AM DOWNLOADING SONGS AND IT REBOOTS i lost all my progress!! ARRR
so is there a solution?? or is there going to be a bug fix in the next GDX version?
i am considering a new rom ...what is the most stable rom out there? i tried froyobread 2.2 but the link i am unable to enter ...help please!
have you wiped it WITHOUT doing a titanium backup?? it could be an app causing it.
also what kernel version you running?
gingerxperia v13/14
erm..imma using stock kernel~ i full wipe throught cwm ...i cant enter xrecovery too with GDX ...i love GDX really...but this is quite serious
have you done a re-wipe and installed NOTHING? dont do a titanium restore.
tried before when the 1st time this problem occured...back then i have no tita but no use
is your bootloader unlocked? you could try a custom kernel it might help. or you could try a different rom to see if you still get the same problem.
also do you know how to use ADB? if you do could you do a adb logcat -d logcat.txt and upload it for us to see?
no no unlock bootloader for me! hard brick my phone once and dont dare to do again ...
oh..i know whats adb...u mean terminal emulator? type that code in my w8?
it's too simple mate...
just use GDX v20 first...
heppy new year...
LOL good idea!! hahaha! say if it happens again i will flash it to v20!!

Looking for ROM - rock stable, simple

My girlfriend has the X8, while I use the GNex. I have experience in flashing serveral devices. Her X8 is stuck at Android 2.1 (or maybe even 2.2), but it won't set up a google account, which means that she has no access to the play store. Usually I just send her the APKs and install them by hand, but this is no real solution.
So I want to flash a custom rom, but she doesn't know android very well.
Looking for this:
-stable (want to flash it once and leave it there)
-everything has to work (wifi/gps etc)
-not so deep options that will confuse her
-german language
-2.3.x
Are there custom roms, which have the same stock UI? She doesn't know what a drawer is or even the existence of other launchers. However this is not necessary.
MiniCM7-2.2.1 rom and Alfs-CM7 v8a kernel...

That's very weird. I've been using it with full app load for an entire week and got no bugs. Try wiping or something...
None of the bugs you posted applied for me, so that obviously isn't a bug in the rom

People who are using Joyos I recommend that you flash latest nAa kernel. I use Joyos too!

On the contrary, I recommend Alfs v08a CM7.
It has MUCH better overall performance than nAa and benchmarks prove it.
I've never had a problem with Alfs and I've tested both kernels on many ROMs, so I know.
no improvements frens....wat to do...should i change the kernel??? if yes then plz send me link of that kernel....
How about posting your present kernel?
Anyway, there shouldn't be problems with kernel if you use Alfs CM7 v08a or nAa 13/14
Do you have a .vcf backup on your card? That's necessary in order to be able to restore contacts.
As for the wifi...maybe even a kernel problem. Try reflashing one of the aforementioned ones

A-B works,camera isn't laggy,+ other things I don't remeber. I was on Alfs too but now I'm on nAa 14 for long time. And battery is very good-about 5 days!

That counts for Alfs too! I had nAa for a long time and decided to switch to Alfs because it performs much better in benchmark, esp. the uncapped version. No problems with nAa kernel, but. Alfs is still fully functional and very fast.

i had the same problems. here's what i did:
For contact problems:
1. wiped out everything in recovery (full factory reset)
2. re-installed joyos
For wi-fi (do this after you have re-installed joyos because if not you will have the same wi-fi error):
1. turn on wifi and try to download anything from google play
2. turn of your phone while your wi-fi is on and DLing.
3. turn on phone and see that its downloading.
hope this helps, if not please don't blame me.

[Q] request regarding android 2.3 rom for xperia x8

guys, my phone has basically 2.1 which works well in multitasking. i have tried few roms available in the internet, but none are working properly. for example if im browsing and i get a call, after the call is ended, by browser gets closed automatically or it restarts and i loose all by tabs. same is with other apps, when i use one others are not kept open in the background.
can u suggest a stable 2.3 rom which can multitask?

Use latest GingerDX v30 (CUSTOM ROM) with Jimdem Tweaks if you in Stock Kernel craving for more
performance. (need Root and install recovery)

nobody mentioned it so i would like to point it out here... it may be because background data might be off?
and if you get a phone call then your net gets disconnected. that might be causing it.
And why don't you use 2.1?:silly:
