[Q] Best Rom - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What's the best rom + kernel for X8?
I tried so many roms, many I don't like, I love GDX v19 with linux kernel but I have too much battery drain.
So help me if you can
I'm judging for battery duration, smoothness and speed. I also want a rom that suports ICS layouts.
Thanks in advance

AlfsKernel+GDX in my opinion.

It must be, i find it strange too!
I've seen many posts saying that is the normal battery so for a test I made a factory reset and didn't instal a single thing in the phone, still battery drain

clear batery stats in cwm then charge to full then reeboot in cwm and wait till batery full its works for me

You should turn off the 3G when u are not using 3G use advanced task killer to kill some apps that u did not use.
Sorry for my bad English.

Anyway thanks to everyone

GC 8.2 at the moment, stock kernel, don't really see the fuss with custom kernels at the moment, nothing major (of interest to me) is added..

[Poll] GingerDX VS Froyobread

Which is better?

Both were AWESOME!
But,
FroyoBread = CM6
GingerDX = CM7
CM6 VS CM7 = CM7 Wins
But,
CM7 is still under development.
CM6 is complete.
So,
For ME, For NOW, FroyoBread.
In my opinion GingerDX is better, because it has better performance than Froyobread
Until the sensitivity issues in GingerDX are solved, I'll be sticking with Froyobread. I need to be able to type or else I feel like throwing my phone at a wall.
froyobread is better but one things camera quality is not so good on it
so i insist to use GDX
some one cane port cameraserive.so (lib) file to froyobread ?
i m waiting for this then i will stick to fb
Froyobread is better for use, i haven't tested GingerDx but have a fair idea that it is better than Froyobread, But till then Froyobread is the king rom for me, I love froyobread.
Froyobread in my case. Most stable rom ever. I've tested GingerDx and all it caused me was headaches, but that may just be me. Like someone mentioned Froyobread (CM6) complete and therefore stable, and GingerDx (CM7 - underdevelopment). So currently I'm sticking with Froyobread
Gingerdx for so many reasons...

Yes, and the accelerometer bug is already solved, search for the fix.
In GDX i have battery drain problem.Wifi,accelerometer have fixes...but battery not.From this point of view, froyobread is better in my oppinion.If i could stop battery drain i would use GDX.It's something strange We are using same hardware and some people have,some not having this problem.Why?
GDX up to v12. Then are too many FCs and bugs.
froyobread is better,bcoz doesnt have battery drain problem.

Strange.I don't have battery drain anymore.I installed froyobread v23b over gingerdx V 14(Full wipe-install froyobread-full wipe),use my phone for 2 days whitout any problems.After that i installed GDX v16+fixes .
Full wipe-install gdx-full wipe and the problem dissapear.
I think installing froyo was helping me alot
GingerDX still under develop. Froyobread already final.
But when i try froyobread, my device always auto reboot. i dont know why.

Can you be in detail, what is your problem?
have you a simillar battery.Go to Second-hand shop and buy a battery or load up the batter in other x8.The best kernel is alfs ics v007,and install chargemon for alfs

+1,
Or MiniCM7 2.2 and Tweak it with v6 Supercharge
Flash another ROM such as cm7.2, ginger DX, ginger Jv etc and overclock with cpu tuner.....729 is optimum CPU frequency.....
Xperian using xda app
I was using the same rom some days back and it was quite laggy
that was really annoying .....
I searched for a fast rom and got a rom which is truly fast and stable
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542247
you will need alfs 08 cm7 kernel for it
i reccomend you using this kernel as it is really good
Here is the link for the kernel-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340861
Download the alfs 8 kernel for cm7 only
after your done with flashing the kernel and rom and once your mobile has booted
Go in setting and click on CyanogenMod settings ..scroll down and you will find performance click on that and go to cpu settings
Change the governer to - SMARTASSV2
Change Max frequency to - 748 MHZ (not more than that your mobile will brick or crash)
Change Min frequency to-729 MHZ
and select the option set on boot
THATS IT UR DONE
Im not responsible if your mobile bricks to death or if it explodes
LOL
Nice tut..
can you tell me why the hell your min frequency is so high???
Ginger DX???????
Before I used gingerdx ..But my battery is draining quickly..SO how can i use that?
And What is the minimum and maximum CPU frequency?

if u use stock kernel then go for PrimeHD v6.0 or GingerDX v25 ( its drains battery though but is super smooth )
try Gingerxperia, altough the developmment has been stopped
im gdx user but i must say that GX has less battery consumption

Yes, I have this bugs too. Additionaly, CWM is in 4 version - in GDXv28b was CWM 5 and it was better.
I have FC in all apps, so I can't use this ROM.
My X8 is in Stock Kernel - what about others?
Edit: In 2nd version GDXv29 for Stock Rom works so much better, but Settings app is old.

Hi , This is a known issue for stock kernel.
Even I am on stock kernel.
Try downloading and flashing the last beta build which eagleeyetom has uploaded,
Check the first page of GingerDx thread.

no wifi on alfs8a
hi all.. i have alfs v8a, and ginger dx v28b, working great with an average antutu score of about 1940 when overclocked to 748.
i downloaded and installed ginger dx v29 and it is great, nice look, nice feel and all.
i got good signal, feels smooth, bluetooth is good and overall its great.
however, i have the same issues with most who are using this rom.
i did not notice the auto brightness if it is working, have not confirmed it yet for myself coz i only got the rom about an hour.
and the biggest issue is that wifi is not working. i dont know what i did wrong but i think i did evrythng ryt, i already flashed the libsensorspatch and still, wifi says error when turning it on.
i will attach a screenshot from my about phone so you guys can check if i have the right kernel for this.
as i saw this post from the dev section:
Originally Posted by burnoutslo View Post

This ones are ok:
X8_v08a-cm7_Alfs&djnilse.zip
X8_v9-cm7_Alfs&djnilse.zip
X8_09a-cm7_Alfs&Djnilse.rar
This ones are NOT ok:
X8_08-GDX_Alfs&Djnils.rar
X8_09a-GDX_Alfs&Djnilse.rar
i just wanna make sure if im using the right kernel or not because i really dont want to have the kernel changed if i have other options

I have installed GDX v29 on stock kernel and i have no bugs except that when i have activated oc module it works aparently but decreases performance a little (i.e. without oc module v004 at 600 mhz antutu benchmark scores are 1656, but with oc module v004 at 748 1550-1640), this is a bug?

I have the same problem, and i think that the error is on /system/etc/init.d/10app2sd the script doesn't work on stock kernel.
Solution: I changed it to the 10app2sd GDX v28b version and now a2sd works correctly.

[Q][Discussion]best kernel+rom for gaming?

Hi
I'm currently using minicm7 & nAa-14-gb.
I totally get 4000 Antutu score (new version) 3d=2400 & 2d=~280
I also tried the following roms on the top of nAa kernel :
Gingerzaraki =only slightly less performance
xperiences= lags like ics
Ixperia=similar performance ((maybe a little faster but ios interface is not interesting))
-I'm wondering is there a better rom+kernel for best gaming performance?
-How much is your 3d-2d performance?
-Any tricks or mods to improve gaming?
Tnx

Ive tested froyopro rom v2.5 + alfs v09a no fps cap. Terrible bug with brightness (set at max and won't set to min)
Here are comparison between minicm7-2.2.1 {nAa14 kernel}& froyopro{alfs v09a}
[email protected] mhz (both)
I ran antutu benchmark v3.0.2 at first boot without any changes in rom.
FroyoProv2.5+fix patches)
(click for bigger image)
& minicm7:
As u can see in results, they are pretty like each other ...
*My experience in froyopro : super speedy menu scrolling, and switching between apps. But time for waking up from sleep is about 0.5~1.0 second which is very extreme for a new installed rom. *this is a froyo rom comes with android 2.2.9 ,it should perform faster than gingerbread roms but actually its not very different ...(+brightness bug which cause battery drain)
*my experience in minicm7 ,perfect for day to day use, without any serious bug or problems...
Nice performance & equals to froyo pro in 2d&3d and sometimes better.
Comes with android 2.3.7 which means a huge range of apps &games
my choice is minicm7, what's yous?
