What about dual booting to boot muti roms
You would need custom kernel or custom recovery.

Like doomed or thrillz kernal? What else would i need, want to have selfkang on dual boot
Actually, you'd need a custom bootloader. Not custom like someone already made it. Custom like custom.

No, not a custom bootloader, but a recovery that is custom. You can change or add a script that manages what rom is booting. I have made the roms for x10 and doomlord made the recovery to for them on a locked bootloader. And the init of kernel needs to,be tweaked to match both roms

That does make sense. Sorry was speaking from my many years with Linux and bad .

I HAD AN X10 BUT DOOM haven't made a dual boot recovery for us..you meant boot manager?
zhidzu made the main one for everyone to play with and a few of us used it/tweaked it to make dual roms when camera wasn't working well on gingerbread roms. z made it easy with the chargemon script (doom is a master of scripts) that could be tweaked to do all kind of things
Their was a miui one. Superaosp. Cm7 one
Z is da man of x10 world... But doom did a lot too with ramdisk, scripts, reboot widget, kernels, Boot menu, and more

i've heard from someone that we can flash the kernel directly through our phone without using flashtool is that possible ???!!
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
yes, i think thats possible, I think it is quite complicated to do so since our x8 has lower level of configuration of hardware...
It is possible, Nobodyatall said in the future he will do that!

Well that's a great news let's see who's the first to bring it to our X8.
lots of people knows about it so its true , iam not the only one who wishing something like that afterall
If this is true..does it mean we don't need to unlock boot loader to flash new kernels.

its not done yet , but when its done u will have to unlock bootloader from pc then flash ur desired kernel anytime through cwm recovery no flashtool anymore
i thinks its possible with higher kernels (example 2.6.35) and not with our 2.6.29. but i m not sure.. correct me if im wrong
I just bought a captivate. I rooted and unlocked it ( now t- mobile) . When I go to rom manager to make a recovery it doesn't recognize my device. Only gives option for i9000, epic, fascinate. What do I need to do to make a backup/ recovery?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Unfortunately there isn't an official clockworkmod recovery for the captivate. You'll need to either flash a kernel with cwm already embedded, or manually load up cwm on your SD card. What stock ROM are you on atm?

Sorry you sorta wrong on some things. There isn't official CWM for GB or Froyo. But there is for Eclair. Sounds like he is on GB at the moment. You are correct about having to flash a kernel with CWM in it.
I stand corrected...but yes unless your still on eclair or restore back to eclair, there isn't an official cwm

Yea, I am on GB 2.3.5 baseband UCKK4. I also have a vibrant.I am really surprised at how different the two phones are. I would like to put a custom rom on the cappy. What rom would you suggest? Kernel?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Suggesting ROMs ins't allow because you will most likely get arguing. Flash Corn Kernel and try out some custom stock ROMs if you don't know what you're doing. If you have an idea. I suggest ANY of the ICS ROMs
I would like a stable ICS rom. PM me with any suggestions.

Going through files in root browser I found a clockwork mod file. Also a zip vcremoveboot-CWM.zip. Not sure what it is? Ideas....

vcremoveboot is the revert zip for voltage control, in case you have unstable settings applied at boot.
Helloo Everybody..
I will be really grateful if someone found a solution to my problem...
I know that this is not a support site, but a developers world, but after searching and googling, i couldnt help my self.
Mods can close and delete this thread if they want.
My question is that if I flash a Gingerbread kernel(nAa or Alfs) on ECLAIR 2.1...wont it create problems..such as force closing or rebooting sort of problems??
Secondly I read SpydeX thread of unlocking bootloader..i got all the tools ready, but the thread doesnt mentions anything about entering into recovery via kernel on ECLAIR 2.1... the guide just tells that after flashing entr into recovery and flash the rom.
I tried this trick on my friends X8, but no success..
Thanxx in advance
If you flash a custom kernel at the eclair while you have locked bootloader,you will have bootloop(it wont boot,but you can easily fix it),if you have unlocked your bootloader it will be fine
As for your second question,you unlock your bootloader,you flash the kernel(which contain cwm),you enter recovery(cwm),and you flash the rom.

No he's got it wrong.
1. You can't flash custom kernels on a locked rom flashtool won't allow it.
2. Flashing a custom kernel on stock 2.1 will cause it to bootloop, what you'd normally do is enter recovery and flash a rom that works with the kernel.

No,users have reported that custom kernels work with stock rom(I remember very clear a user who used naa kernel with stock rom)
Maybe older versions...

Was wondering if there were any easy to install tweaks for the xperia T jellybean os, that I can flash with cwm
That would allow me to customize many appearence features on statusbar, and threw out the phone? Would need something that will work on a locked bootloader! Maybe even recomendations on a feature packed custom ROM that uses a stock kernal? Thanks.
Sent from my LT30p using xda app-developers app
No
There are no tweak packs, there is a slight custom ROM, stock based so works on locked bootloaders, XperimenT, its in the android development section, its ICS based, a JB version is being worked on
Thanks! Im using Xperiment beta 2. I love how fast the phone runs, and how good my battery is! I just dont see anything different other than the boot screen . Maybe because its a beta?

Yeah it's because it's a beta and the dev wants to get it stable before he adds customizations, also they don't work from ICS so new ways are needed to get it working. Patience

Fair enough! I might flash the xperimenT ics stable then, quick question tho.. Can I not keep the jb xperimenT backup on my phone, and then swap roms as needed via cwm restore? Would be fairly cool. On the same note, minus the odd crash here and there, the experimenT jb beta is just incredible performance wise.

You may have issues as to swap versions, JB and ICS, a lot of the time you need format sd card, you'll also need to make sure the correct kernel is in place and that you flash the correct cwm+reboot fix, so it is a pain bit doable

Hi guys. Today I tried upgrading GingerDX from v030 to v031b but I mistakenly downloaded (and flashed) Alfs/nAa instead of Stock kernel.
Now the phone screen won't pass the Sony Ericsson boot scree... I can't find the key combinations to enter into CWM recovery menu. Is there any other way I can flash the proper ROM using Flashtool? I found this guide but I don't want to go back to the stock kernel (if possible).
Thank you!
You mean to. Say stock rom??
You are already on stock kernel...
& no other option you must follow that guide if you can't unlock bootloader!
see boot animation without rebooting

Right, I already have the stock kernel, but I flashed Alfs/nAa ROM instead of the Stock one (from the download options) and now the phone won't pass the bootloader... Will try that guide since I can't enter CWM recovery using the key combinations I found

Yes,its not harder isn't it? really easy and fast way. you do this couple of times and you automatically capture the method easily
i unbricked my soft brick X8,root and install Xrec without guide for 4 times.that nice
sorry for my baddest english.
I re-installed 2.1 e15a stock kernel, then xRecovery and tried with 31b and 30 to no avail (SE -> GingerDX logo loop).
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong...

1. Use CWM to flash GDX!
2. Wipe dalvik cache that you forgot..

Where can I downloadCWM? I couldn't find it and that's why I used xrecovery

Will xtoolbox do the job?
It I'll be great if everything comes from one place instead of having to root using guide A, install CWM from guide B to end up using XDA's guide to install GDX. Just un idea, specially for noobs

Well, when I softbricked my X8, I never used my PC to unbrick it. I will just go into the recovery and flash a working rom. Problem solved..
But I can't figure out why he is sayig he can't go into the recovery. The button patterns remains the same no matter what rom you are on or what kernel you use. But I can be wrong.
Anyway did you do all these steps:
# Wipe Full System
# Wipe Cache, Dalvik-Cache
These steps are very important. But we often forget them.
Dude.....
Sometimes can't get into recovery while on stock kernel

We dont see the sony ericsson logo on custom kernels..
it is seen only on stock kernel.
so there is a high possibility that op downloaded the wrong rom..

if you use rom for stock kernel you can see the GDX logo...that is part of boot animation. alfs shows WLAN version not GDX. the Sony Ericsson logo is of stock kernel. so if you flash a rom for custom kernel you will still see that logo
it is possible (as dagger said) that OP downloaded rom for custom kernel.
