I help my brik x8 Ginger root with Roma Dx installed v013 and cercovo to install filter net with this tread: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1184907&highlight=iptables 2Fnetfilter% + support) .
Can anyone help me? thanks

If you can boot in xRecovery, try making a full wipe. If that fails, restore a backup. If you can't boot in xRecovery, reinstall stock with SEUS.
LOL (help me brick my X8)
Edit: Did you flash the zip in xRec? That's not a flashable zip, it just contains some files.

Unfortunately does not go into recovery mode with the `physical buttons so I can not make them do anything.

That leaves you no choice but to use SEUS

[Q] Flashing Kernel

Hey people,
i was reading a lot of posts and topics and i'm really really really very confuse now.
Some people say that we put the kernel file in the Flashtool folder, blablabla, and then we flash, blabla, some people say we have to change another file and make a bundle or whatever and blablabla, blablabla, blablabla! a lot of ways are told in the different topics
I just want to know exactly all the steps from downloading the kernel to turn on the phone with the new kernel (i already unlocked the bootloader sucessfully)
If theres differents steps from kernel to kernel, i just want the steps for the FXP Kernel and (if diferent) to the CM Kernel.
Thanks in advance

I did like that :
1.download kernel linuxdx
2.put ftf to firmwares folder in flashtool
3. Run flashtool
4.press flash
5. Select linuxdx kernel
6. Flashed linuxdx in less than 2minutes
7.take out the cable
8. Boot phone, install gingerdx
9.reboot
10.Enjoy new kernel and ROM

So... what about the loader? We don't need to do nothing to that? And is that the same process to FXP Kernel?

If I try the linuxdx kernel and want to switch back to original kernel that I am using how would I do this? Do I have to back up the kernel to use it again? If so, how would I do that?
Thank you for your help!

Just download stock kernel too, it is posted in few places on forum.
If you will not want LDX ot FXP kernel then you just flash stock one.
Remember about full wipe if any problems after changing rom or kernel.
Also stock kernel will NOT have recovery... do backups! ;]

Thank you for your help!

That "bla bla bla bla bla" way is the correct way!

If you are useing per made kernel like linuxdx.04
loader is all ready in the ftf file
If you get a file call kernel.sin then you will need. The loader.sin
And make a ftf file in flash tool

[Q] Stucks after flashing or installing ROM.

I flashed the latest official firmware...
Than after all my attempts i can't install any ROM, except official 2.1.
Please, write me instructions how to install CM7 - i need help...
I have rooted 2.1 with xRecovery - what's next?

Go to xrecrovery choose instal custom zip from sd card hoose zip from sd card find your mini cm 7 install rom and factory reset/full wipe.

It depends on ROM. Some of CM7 works only on custom kernels, so You should first check if You will be able to unlock bootloader. Look behind Your battery - on the stick there should be something like xxWyy which will tell You the year and the week of Your board. If it's older than 11W26 (26th week of 2011) - U may unlock bootloader and install custom kernel (on Your own risk ;P). If not - You shouldn't do this and search for ROMs working on SE stock kernel

Also, some ROM required CWM instead of Xrecovery, so read carefully before attempting anything.

Hmmmm
I unlocked bootloader long time ago(10WW48 on the sticker).
to przemek4113: Just installing from xrecovery gives me a unbooting phone.
I tried Froyo, but it doesn't boot too.
Then i'm flashing(Xrecovery doesn't give me a booting phone even if i recover all system) official 2.1.
This phone was bought with GinderDX on it. But latest versions need new kernels(flashing kernel bricks phone).
May be try Previous versions of GingerDX?
Really, i tried about seven customs...
P.S. I'm installing xrecovery ROM's from Xrecovery and CWM ROM's from CWM...

Mind to elaborate where you read that "latest versions need new kernels"?
GingerDX runs on STOCK KERNEL, LinuxDX as well as Alfs. I fail to find the part in doixanh's post where it says something about forcing a certain kernel to be used.

Make sure you have an older x8 than 11w29, its under the battery. When the number is 11w29 or newer, you'll not get CM. Unlock your bootloader.
Download and flash FXP kernel. Install official CM with the kernel built-in CWM. I recommend to flash nAa kernel after install the CM, it's much better.

If you want CM7 you should go to this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362585

That's my fault - i was speaking about another ROM. Not GingerDX - but it doesn't boot too.
I followed advise about miniCM7.
Flashed kernel ->then wiped all(i disliked the message about ext4 - there's no this partition - probably that's the problem???) ->installed ROM. Nothing.
"nAa kernel" logo appears and then it reboots.
UPD:
I've installed GingerXperia(v19) via CWM.
Then -
I've flashed all kernel,fota and smth else(not all files from 2.1.1).
Then it booted...strange)
But i'll try to work with other kernels...

hi

Flash Tool - I've seen links on it thousand times on 4pda.ru, but not here - i suppose it to be in the branch about X10.
http://www.mediafire.com/?z7fmpiragbbdxdu - here is flasher.
http://depositfiles.com/files/c2gllgt6t - or here, with official firmware

It would be great if somebody could provide the step by step procedure of flashing my w8 to get past the se logo....

1)Download all archives above
2)Run flasher
3)Press "Flash" and choose necessary firmware
4)follow advices of software
5)reboot -> You have official 2.1
then
1)check your bootloader(http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/1227710/S1tool.7z) with this tool
2)unlock it if it is able for you
3)take root(superoneclick with debugging)
4)make xrecovery
5)install any xrecovery zip
or
alt 5)make CWM
alt 6)install any CWM zip
or
install kernel
then install zip
Firstly try it from xrecovery. If you have some problems - write PM to me)

I have done it and successfully flashed as per flashtool...but now even i cant boot stuck at "sony ericsson" now the animated logo works and reboots automatically...pls help

Have you done "user-wipe" in Flash Tool???
Here is from friendly branchcontains a collection of GingerDX 013-022 and some other goodies in the "Sony Ericsson" folder - i.e. Basebands, PCC, SEUS, Flashtool)

have u tried to use SEUS?

we fixed it.
I dont have this phone, so I didnt know you needed to have custom kernel and unlocked baseband.
How can I get the:
1. Latest baseband
2. Unlocked bootloader

to unlock the bootloader you have to check This
for latest baseband update the phone with Update Service

Thank you.
Where can I find this kernels
nAa AND ALFS KERNEL ?
or do they come with the ROM and automatically flash?

you can find in one of the Development Thread, you have to flash it first with flashtool then you can flash the ROM via CWM..

U means u didn't install X recovery.... If u install cwm its possible u having this problem... Cwm only work on stock rom.... Use flash tool and repair.. Install X recovery....i installed it too.. I got the same before, though it was on that Site.. This will work on stock rom

Revert to Stock Kernel & ROM issue!

Hi Guys,
I have my x8 phone running on nAa's latest v6 kernel with ZenceFil ROM(GB 2.3.7) with ofcourse an un-locked bootloader. But now i want to move back to stock settings.
I had made a backup using xRecovery before installing these mods, so my question is, how to I restore that xRecovery backup along with the stock kernel which i already got from the unlock bootloader thread??
I tried flashing the stock kernel but then the phone just get's stuck in the boot logo page with Sony Ericsson logo, can't even open the recovery, which i guess is not included in the stock kernel file.
I tried installing xRecovery by copying its files to /system/bin but still i have CWM as recovery!
Please advise...
p.s. I saw this thread, but the solution provided there is not working for me as PCC is not helping, it juts say's no s/w found for your device. Also I don't want to lock the boot loader.

I have downloaded the stock 2.1 rom but how do i flash a ROM using flash tool? I don't see that option..

Flash it like kernel.
Sent from my GT-P3110 using Tapatalk 4

NAA6 is using difrent system-data partition size. If you want to move to other kernel you need first boot into cwm and format data and system partitions, then flash other kernels.
You can also flash your phone with SEUS and you will have stock rom-kernel like you had when you bouth the phone (if your bootloader was unlocked SEUS will leave it unlocked).

Stock rom and kernel you can flash using Flash Tool, just move the ftf file (for exemple 2.1.1.C.0.0.ftf) move this to the FIRMWARE flashtool' folder. Open flash tool and click on the "lightning" icon, (on old version click on flash) and select flash mode. Turn off the phone and flash it like a normal kernel.

But the stock rom that i downloaded has no ftf file! It's a normal backup have 4 .img files.. how do i flash that?

You could use SEUS. It will install the newest firmware for x8 and it won't relock bootloader (for me it don't relock it), but you have to root your phone and install xrecovery one more time.
