[Q] Each ROM stuck at boot screen

Hi, this is my first thread.
I tried to install GingerCruzt 8.4 on my X8 but failed. I am on stock 2.1 ROM which is rooted and xRecovery installed.
I don't understand where I was wrong.
1. Boot into recovery
2. Full wipe
3. Choose install custom zip
4. Again full wipe (also tried without this)
5. Reboot
6. Stuck at boot screen (picture with girl and title GingerCruzt) for looong time (15-20 mins)
Do I need to wait longer?
I also read many threads about this but didn't find solution.
Also tried to install FroyoBread 023b via xRecovery but same thing happend.
CWM Recovery came with FroyoBread and I tried to instal GingerDX 021 but no luck. Same problem.
What is the solution if it is solvable?

I'd rather not unlocked bootloader.
@sidewalk_
Tried full wipe but did not help. Maybe I missed something?
But I think you must!
I also try to install FroyoBread and it stuck at boot screen. It does not need custom kernel. I think that I missed something, but what question is now?

do u have latest baseband and build id? try fullwipe,wipe cache,dalvik cache,wipe battery stats and try again,if problem still persists then flash to 2.1 again and root
YOU have the wrong Baseband you need x15
Thanks for help.
Tried everything that you wrote. Restore with PCC, full wipe, wipe dalvik, battery cache but nothing.
Baseband xxx015
Kernel 2.6.29
Build 2.1.1.A.0.6
Can be problem a busybox (1.17.2)? When I rooted phone I installed busybox by coping it to /system/bin without installing it via market (this tutorial youtube.com/watch?v=sJIU5qIdC-w). Same i did with chargemon and xrecovery. Now I find that busybox needs to be installed via market.
Is there a diference betwen chargemon in this tutorial above and that one in stock ROM.
Me again
I tried to repair with PCC, again.
Rooted with SuperOneClick folowing this tutorial (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1046605).
Rebooted.
Than I copied chargemon, busybox and xrecovery to /system/bin/
Rebooted.
Enter xRecovery.
Flashed GingerDX v013 via xRecovery
Rebooted
Enter CWM Recovery
Flashed GingerDX v021
Flashed Addons for stock kernel
Full wipe
Reboote
Stuck at GingerDX logo for 30 mins than I pulled batery out
Baseband xxx015
Kernel 2.6.29
Build 2.1.1.A.0.6
Also I tried to flash this (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105745) via xRecovery and tried to install v021.
Btw, I tried to instal Floyo 1.0 but nothing.
I am out of ideas. Please help )
Solved. SD card was problem. Probably bad one.

[Q] Unable to flash GingerDx V023

I previously had GingerDx V022 and it was working perfect.
Today I tried to Flash GingerDx V023 Using Xrecovery V0.1
I even initiated a full wipe and also wiped dalvik cache etc etc
But every time I flash , I get stuck at the SE Logo , unable to go back to xrecovery. Then I have to use PCC And re-root all over again.
I tried to find CWM V014 , although Xrecovery always worked for GingerDx (all previous versions)
But couldn't find it.
I havent even customized GingerDx V023. Just tried to directly flash it after downloading.
Doesnt work
What is going wrong ?
Help Please I really want to upgrade to this ROM
Xperia X8 E15i
GingerDx V022
Stock Kernel
it's same problems with me. Just waiting for helping by another peoples
Use ClockworkMod - it's absolutely necessary. You could use toolbox http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117100 to obtain double recovery. Then just tap the screen (dual recovery) or buck button to access CWM.

Unable to change ROM

Hi,
I am using the stock gingerbread rom from CSL running the utterchaos kernel by doomlord & Napster.
I tried changing rom's to CM7 found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1333503
I did everything as described, wiped data/factory reset and then flashed the rom.
It said success but when I rebooted phone it shows
"booting UtterChaos Kernel by Doomlord & Napster" screen and nothing happens further. The screen goes dark and again the same boot screen shows.
I guess its going into bootloop.
How do I fix this?????
Thanks
U should root ur device...flash clockwork mod and then flash rom

How do you think I flashed the rom in the first place?

hi
use SUTL and flash stock rom then get the CWM and install the CM7 via CWM it should work
this CM7 is on .35 based kernel and utterchaos kernel is .32 , that is creating the problem .....
So, if you want to try this rom, first install TJ's RC3 rom than install this rom .....
if u dontt want to try this now (as u have bricked ur phone once ) ....
just install stock GB rom via SUT ....

dude since edowar's latest cm7 is Based on a new kernel 2.6.35.7, u have to flash stock sharp rom through SUT. then use tj's cwm recovery for latest kernal and flash cm7 27-3-2012
else you can flash UPDATE ROM 31-12 directly it is also good rom
So basically I have to flash 2 roms!
Can't I just flash a .35 kernel instead of the .32 one and then flash the CM7 rom?

No u cant. But if you're from stock GB you could flash older CM7 based on the. 32 kernel instead

I have a problem mounting SD Card

So , i rooted my X8 yesterday and then installed CWM. Everything went fine (I was following tutorials made here - awesome work by the way)
then when i loaded 3 custom roms , i went to CWM made a backup , formated cache , data , system and then when i tried installing them i got the error 7. ive seen that its a common error. So after that , i couldnt load the phone and it was stuck in "Sony Ericsson" screen forever. couldnt load CWM aswell. Then i flashed the original ftf and it booted normally. rooted again and installed CWM. Next thing , i flashed 2.6.29.6-nAa-jb-03 Custom jb kernel. Everything went fine , then i formated data , cache and system. But when i tried to load the Roms it couldnt mount sd card.
So now i can neither install a rom nor restore the phone.
Can someone help me ?
(by the way , phone stays at nAa Freedom Within screen. or the CWM )
What's the point in flashing that kernel?

re insert the sd card, i too have experienced this problem many times, try it mate
Okay , so i tried inserting it again and again. nothing really changed.
Gogeta to be honest , im a total newb @ these things i just started readin about custom roms rooting e.t.c
So , can you tell me why i didnt need to flash that kernel?
i mean i wanted to instal MiniCM10 and the requiremenents were these
Requirements:
Latest 2.1.1.A.0.6/2.1.1.C.0.0 SE firmware / Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Unlocked bootloader
Latest version of the 2.6.32 nAa JB kernel
latest not old, naa05 is the latest
Sent from my katana with a sharpness over 9000!
Oh , so that would be the problem right?
How do i fix this? i need to flash the original tft then root again - install recovery - unlock using s1tool and then flash the latest nAa?
Thank you by the way.
you can enter recovery so you can flash the new version by wiping data cache and system, but first, is your sd card formatted? format it first to avoid those problems

[Q] Installed a Custom Rom and phone bricked, what was the problem?

Hello everyone, i have Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 11w43, android version 2.1, rooted.
Today i installed the rom GingerDX, i think everything was correct, i had
- Busybox installed
- Rooted
- Xrecovery installed
...
when i selected the file update.zip it told me that The rom was installed and i rebooted(i thinked that i must factory reset after rebooting from the options menu) and my phone bricked(stops on SE logo when starting)
I used SEUS and fixed the problem, but i don't know what was the problem
must i do something other to work, or its because i have 11w43?
If i do it again and do fullwipe directly after installing the rom will it be now working or not?

are you on stock kernel?
1. do not update busybox if you are.
2. use cwm, not xrecov. if using xrecov use v13 and below.

your phone's bootloader is locked..
so for a locked bootloader you have to install a Stock Rom..
if you install a custom rom on your stock kernel..i.e locked bootloader your phone will get soft bricked..
go on the GDX page again. and look for the stock rom.. ! your problem should be solved.. :good::good::good::good::good::good:
Source: Did the same mistake
then realised the difference between stock and custom roms!
