[Q]Gingercrutz revision 8.1 - Can't boot into recovery - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Im a super noob over here...
Just currently flash gingercrutz rev 8.1 into my W8 from froyobread,
Dont like it, BIA not running as smooth as on froyobread.. So decided to revert back, unfortunately, I cant boot into xrec/cwmrec recovery.. Basically it stuck at the SE logo not goin anywhere..
As usual when halfly bricked like that, remove the batt and recover the phone, try to reboot into recovery again, and failed!
Nah, please help me..
Need my recovery to work again thanks!

Try again ,if it's not working then reflash stock rom with Seus/Flashtool.

hello bro,
I really donno whats actually happen,
theres an error in cwm recovery after the flash, some sort like ''bad recovery'' but I though it was ok, so i reboot out, propably and def my fault..
I guess It might be my mistake afterall, I thought I have fullwipe, which I might not, since I cant wait to boot into the awesome crutz lol! and def its awesome! Very stylish and I really love the new camera
Unfortunately games doesnt run perfectly(heavy lag on BIA 2) so I switch to gingerxperia(which is thought to be an upgrade of crutz!)
yeap some how gxp gaming performance is really at top notch even better than froyobread!(I confirm this lol)
##might wanna rename the rom crutzXplay instead lol
Btw I have to say sorry, It might not be the ROM glitch afterall, def my own mistake,
Thanks for the care
@rav3n_pl
@dotsen9
Got it done bro, thanks

Np,when you cwm tells you bad recovery,just don't select yes to restore cwm,and then select yes(it's asking if you really wanna do this).

[Q] GingerCruzt installation problem

Hello, after I rooted my phone and installed xrecovery I tried to install GingerCruzt, but no luck.. No matter what I did, after the installation the phone boots until that colorful sony ericsson logo and then loops at it. The only way to recover the phone is to restore my backup after that. Any idea why this happens? Thank you very much for your time!

Did you wipe data before and after you installed the rom?
Did your baseband end with 015? Thats extremely important

Fde 2.4.5 Maximized
i cant use update service cause im using a sony ericsson tm506 to tether
and it tries to update it instead of my x8.
Man I had the same problem once when I installed srom v2 long time back... well I wasn't able to figure any way out and the last thing I could do was flash stock x8 ROM ftf file using flashtool.. maybe you could try the same if you can go into flash mode..

Try pressing the screen on Sony Ericsson screen would work...

FIXED Thanks for the replies
Well I tried everything, even tapping the screen. I ended up having to go to a friends house and borrow his internet to use SEUS to repair. Ahh back to stock. Oh well, Jus gives me an excuse to try a new rom.
Thanks to everyone that replied
When this happens try to press all keys menu/home/back but am pretty sure that its the menu key, this will take you to xrecovery instead of back weired huh, dunno why is this but it happen to me twice 1st time i got freak out and ended taking phone to CS it had warranty, but then i didn't wanted stock rom and did it again and this did the trick...
Sent from my E15a using XDA App
I assume u already fullwipe after u flash the rom?
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium
It happened to me as well when i tried to flash a ROM that should have a customer kernel and unlock bootloader (i have a stock kernel and locked bootloader, just for experimental purposes). Stock in SE logo. What i did is to flash my phone using SEUS and went back to stock rom.
same prob here ^^

New Experience Rom not booting

Hello XDA,
I just registered, and I know that I have to search first. But the New Experience thread has like 117 pages, I don't exactly remember.
So that isn't quite gonna work.
Here's my problem:
I followed the instructions to install, but my phone is not booting, it shows: INDONESIA CYANMOBILE SQUADZONE
Sometimes the screen goes black, then I press the power button and it turns back on.
Does anybody have an idea of what I have done wrong? I installed a new rom before but I did that using ODIN and stuff..
I installed this rom from 2.3.6 for Galaxy Mini.
Thanks in advance,
Sanderth.
EDIT: I restarted the phone, it showed the logo of New Experience and did the same thing as before. Then I wiped everything again.. Still waiting for it to boot, should take 10 minutes but I don't think it will work this time..

You have to wipe data+cache+dalvik cache in CWM recovery before and after install rom to be on the safe side!

Well I back upped too... But it wouldn't boot, that's why I decided to flash a new stock rom, I wanted a clean phone anyways
Well my phone just booted again, I've got my stock Android back. I will wait flashing to 2.3.6 since I really want another ROM... Flashing to 2.3.6 is useless if I'm gonna flash it to another anyways.. Can anybody recommend a good ROM for Galaxy Mini?
