[Q] GingerDX usb connection with Pc problem - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi to all folks!!
This is my first smartphone and i manage (thanks to your posts) to install GingerDX.v0.21
The problem is that when i connect my phone to PC (Windows 7 64bit) via USB doesn't show options like android 2.1 (chatge, usb storage data etc) and i don't have access in my sd card.
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks In advanced

There is no options in notification bar?

Why i am so noob?
Thanks
Tto be honest i prefer to auto pop-up the window selection (like android 2.1) than to press menu key-->notification-->usb connection etc
Is there any way?

Are you using any custom kernel like linuxDX or Alfs kernel?

I download gingerDX from the forum so i have.....(linuxDX?)
Also i want the pitch zoom but i saw there r 2 versions, which one i will use?

If you only download and install GingerDX and not open bootloader, download some other kernel and install this kernel so you have still stock (original) kernel. Than download from first post of GingerDX thread (where you find GingerDX Rom) zip with modules for stock kernel and install this one same way as GingerDX Rom

which means now i have to update my x8 to latest 2.1 eclair, and the root and install CWM recovery, and no need to unlock bootloader? no need to flash custom kernel? stock kernel can do just fine?
Yea...if u havent root, use stock rom,2.1 eclair (not like u have other rom),root,install xrec or CWM, then flash Gingerdx ( follow the instruction at gdx thread)

so i dont need to unlock bootloader and install custom kernel? awesome! coz i don like to do so
nop just have that on your cel and you can flash it, and remember making a full wipe for better results on the rom
Just root, install CWM, and flash the rom, modded kernel is not required
Do not install GingerDX with xRecovery, it will have bugs if you do, use CWM and before you install the rom, do a full wipe.

rom and kernel
To flash KERNEL you need unlock bootloader.
To install ROM you need root + recovery.

Excuse, but I installed it with xRecovery and I have no bugs. I only feel that battery draining is higher than stock ROM, but that's all. I've used it for a week without problems.

u can use with stock kernel too, if u wanna use custom kernel then u need to unlock bootloader, and all gingerdx roms v14 and above needs to be installed with cwm
go to settings/ Accounts & Sync and hit auto-sync or down on list hit on gmail account
I have cwm 3.2.0.0 is the same thing with cwm v014+???

Gingerdx does not have the overclock module but you can also overclock your x8 using dx's overclock module.
Then what's the use of "addons.modules.for.stock.kernel" that i installed by xrecovery.isn't it have dx's overclock module? i found x8oc.ko module in system/lib/Modules.then it means its not working. what should i do?
First if all you should install gdx with cwm, second ir you wanna this options you should install custom kernel, otherwise download from market some app for overclock your cpu

put x8oc.ko in system/lib/modules/
by default its 691MHz, to change speed, use SetCPU or CPU monitoring app.

I find gdx v20 best for day 2 day use
Sent from my MOLEY_X8 using xda premium
for me..
and hightly recomment is GingerDX v20
and when you know after reading thread by thread you can match with kernel
linuxDX, or Alfs kernel, or nAa kernel...
it can simply make your device faster and smootherst
but beware if you new on kernel
(make sure your know what are U doing when playing with kernel and unlock bootloader)
because it can brick you phone!
and then I sure after this you will screaming here and asking how to save your bricked phone!!
here the answer use SEUS
gingerdxv20 for sure

U have to follow installation properly
make sure install GDX with CWM instead Xrecovery
and fullwipe..
or maybe your device 'special' same like my friend phone
(when I flashing GDX 20 and GDX v19 on his phone)
I found this problem = sdcard no show
but when in recovery = all files and folder prety there
and I have no idea why....
Gx with custom kernal no lag 8 day use

CWM? whats that?? i only had xrevocery no CWM ..is it like xrecovery where u click back when you see SE ?
No you need tap on the screen,also you need to have installed.

froyopro incase of daily tasks and battery performance
for me gingerdx v20 is the best rom for x8 super fast and no lag

Click to expand...

when u reboot..
press volume down key or/and tap screen (when u see SE white logo)
u'll see CWM recovery and install GDX by this way
or if u can get into CWM th8 mean U don't have CWM
so install dual recovery.zip first (u can use search button)
or install other rom which one have dual recovery pre install
sorry long explaination
and hit thanks button twice!
thanks! (thanked already )
so in summary ...
open xrecovery and find CWM
if CWM is missing then go donwload it...
is cwm same with xrecovery?or is it and extension?
then use cwm and install the mod instead of xrecovery (do i need to system wipe?)
reboot phone then done?
hmmm just wondering will my link2sd apps will stay?
does it have anything to do with busybox? according to dotsen i must not update busybox

Alfs kernel or nAa kernel are pretty good. GingerDx is my favourite ROM.
Well your bootloader is unlocked so either of the kernels have CWM recovery installed (xRecovery is pretty much obsolete). "craking bootloader" is legal to do this. An advantage of having Android. Most phones come these days with there bootloaders unlocked.

it mean :
- Download the kernel .ftf file and move it to Flashtool\firmwares so that Flashtool can pick it up
- Flash the kernel via Flashtool (turn off phone, press back button, connect your usb phone cable to computer, see led in your phone blink green, then release back button. flashing should be running.. wait until finished..
- unplug your usb phone cable
- turn on your phone.

i rooted my xperia x8 and install link2sd after i setup x recovery and make sure it's installed i reeboted my phone but it's not responding it stops wroking after sony erricson welcome message not the white which u began to press back button but after it
It's a soft brick. Use PCC/SEUS
You should press the back button before the logo multiple time until the logo come out.
Then after you got to the recovery .
Do a full wipe or factory reset using recovery.
Pls. press thanks if I helped!
