[Q] What kernel and rom?

What is the best kernel and custom rom for me? I have an xperia x8 and need one that can support dual touch as my screen is cypress. I'm currently on stock kernel with gingerxperia v13.
Which kernel is the fastest and best for playing games etc. and that can also support dual touch?
Thanks

None. For me..

and you don't have problems with ext partition or app2sd in alfs kernel?

GINGERXPERIA v21+Alf v06+Swap+Optmizer+Odex=speed and smooth
BTW THANK ME IF I HELPED YOU

I also use GinderDX with ALFS kernel, but I think I'm going to change it for something more stable.

I recently changed to froyopro v2.2 whit alfs v6 kernel,and i can't believe how fast it is,and stable of course!Reaaly recommend you to try!

[Q] Kernel

Hi there. For first sorry for my english, 'cause it sucks.. I have installed GingedDX on my Xperia x8 and I have a question about kernel. Do I can install custom kernel? Or do I need it? If yes, what is the best kernel in your opinion? Thanks for reply.

GingerDX supports 3 kernels: SE stock, LinuxDX and Alfs for GingerDX. 1st and 2nd won't allow You to OC Your CPU. Only Alfs has this feature. On the other hand - if You're not OC fan, than You should try LinuxDX, cause it was created by doixanh [He creates GingerDX as well].
But all of Your doubts may go away if U won't be able to unlock Your bootloader. If this happen - You will be able to use only stock SE kernel

Ok, my phone can have custom kernel. But is it worth it? I think that Alfs for GingerDX + GingerDX should work great. I want OC a bit my phone's processor, because my phone lags very often.. Should it work better than now?

I tried a combination of stock kernel + GingerDX and Alfs + GingerDx. For me the 2nd one gave a boost to my x8, so in Your case it would be probably the same

Stock kernel + GingerDX and Alfs + GingerDx? You mean 2 kernels? And sorry I can't understand this: For me the 2nd one gave a boost to my x8.
My english is weak, sorry Did you mean "jeden z dwóch"?

I tried both combinations - GingerDx + stock kernel, then I flashed ALFS and was using it with GingerDX
Polish: Próbowałem obu kombinacji - GingerDx + stock oraz ALFS + GingerDX. Jak dla mnie drugie połączenie przyspiesza działanie telefonu

Ah, okay, now I understand Okay, thanks then. I will try
@EDIT
My phone is dead now :/ I have unlocked bootloader, I've got message that everything is done. Reboot and phone doesn't work.. Crap :/

dude.. English doesnt Suck.. probably your grammer might . And there are custom kernels like Alfs and nAa, which you can install at your own risk.. Search the forums for further info...

You can't overlock your CPU on stock? So how am I doing it then?
Sent from my XPERIA X8 using xda premium

On ALFS kernel this feature is built-in. On LinuxDX or stock U have to use modules or other stuff.

linuxDx neither with modules..only stock kernel with modules and alfs with built in, you can overclock..flash alfs if you like or dislike oc..if you don't like you don't need to use the oc..so, the best kernel for gingerDx is ALFS KERNEL
sorry my bad english

stock kernel can oc too, use module.

[Q] ¿rom for my x8?

rom you I can put my phone Xperia X8, which runs well with many programs installed

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Always GINGERdx

gingerdx is very good

If you want performance combined with great battery life I recommend you MiniCM v2.1.8 with nAa v10 kernel and additional You can put V6 Supercharger script with 256HP multitasking option, read more about V6 Supercharger in XPERIA X8 Android development section, You can find a tutorial there.

My recommendation is MiniCM7 with nAa kernel or if you want without custom kernel use GINGERDX...

FroyoPro v2.4

Mini CM or any rom based on minicm + nAa kernel

Best ROM for nAa kernel???

Good Evening guys...
Wanna ask, what's the best ROM for nAa-11 now in your opinion? I used GingerXperiaRay V004 before, but then cannot change the default launcher (360 launcher). Then I try Xperience V4.0, but when I install widgets, it doesn't show in widget option. Are there any suggest for better ROMs than these? With overall functions of course As for now I still use Xperience ROM but already back-up both ROMs. How about ROMs based on Cyanogenmod 9? Any recommended ROM available now?

I was testing GingerXperiaRay V004 for some time too and I could change launcher without any problems Don't know why You can not.
From very long time I'm using iROM. First was iROM v004 on top of nAa kernel 8b and 9. But know I'm using iROM v005 on top of nAa 11. It's MiniCM7 2.1.9 ROM with better look and some changes. For me it's great

Of course it's MiniCM7-2.1.9 download it from the official site for cm

MiniCM7-2.1.9

I thinks GingerXperiaRay really smooth,fast, but it still have some problem about Status bar because it based on MiniCM 2.1.8, i hope nobodyAtall will fix soon and GingerRay will have a good version 5

+1 for Achotjan Semc Debrand Engine
Although there are some bugs:
1) USSD not working, but when you install the "fix", then messages are not working (this is what happen to my gf X8)
2) wi-fi tethering (I don't use it and I didn't tested it, although there is a fix for that too)
3) FOR SOME: wifi. I said "for some" because I think it's working afterall but many people might have done the same mistake like I did. After installing the rom, wifi was working ok, but I noticed Android system taking more than 50% of the battery, so I wiped the battery stats and the wifi stopped working (this means that you can connect to the network, but you cannot browse the web, it will not load any pages, etc). Now, after reinstalling the rom again (maybe the 4-5th time), wifi is ok but still no fix for USSD AND messages (together).

Xperience v5 deodexed
Hi all,
My personal favorite has to be Xperience v5 deodexed..
It's fast, very fast.. Games are far smoother than any other rom i've tried..
AndroVDR works perfectly so I can stream my livetv and satellite to the phone..
Calls are clear, wifi great, data great.. I must say I'm impressed with the quality compared to previous versions which i found to be really slow and clunky..
There are some great roms here, I've tried nearly all of them, but a few stand out above the others.. Xperience v5, PrimeHD, CM7 2.1.9 and S-Rom..
These, in my opinion, are the best roms for the nAa kernel..
For the best experience with ANY rom start with a clean sd card..
Have fun,
CtrlAltDel

i belive xper v5 best for naa kernel

In my opinion would say minicm 2.1.9 always fast never laggy and good gaming

alfs v9a
im having a little screen moving problem, i think its the kernel alfs v9a, i'll try v8 and let you know
Edit; Alfs v8a solves the problem

Hey guys i'm having the same problem with the screen moving bug, it moves to the right a little bit. I tried alfs v8 and it solved the problem but I still don't think it's the best answer since the combo gdx v29 and alfs v8 has A LOT of battery drain on 3g and sync on (in 8 hours it drains 90 percent of the battery just in standby).
Is there any other thing I can do to fix this screen problem? If not i'll just go back to stock kernel

Afaik alfsv9 has that bug. Try oc'ing above 690 and use on demand.

Hey thanks for answering, I'm on demand right now, and the cpu is set to 122 mhz min and 691 mhz max (basically I didn't change anything). Any other ideas?
Pretty weird bug I hope there's a good fix for this, cos alfs v9+ is the kernel with the best performance I've tested so far.
