[Q] Bug custom kernel - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm still new in this forum so please give me support k?
I found some bugs "maybe" because when i install ginderdx v21 n alfs kernel v05,
my sd-ext apps were missing in my apps drawer..
I use Link2SD with ext2 partition. When i use stock kernel, my apps will appear in stock kernel. When i custom flash my kernel with Linux DX or alfs kernel, my apps which linked to sd-ext will be missing in my app drawer.
However, when i try reinstall the app, it says that you gonna to replace the existing app? WTH! my apps is missing but say had install on my phone.
When i moved my apps to internal or sdcard storage, the app will appear..
any helps you guys can help??

Read this also in some forums.. even some froyo and gingerbread users can't use link2sd..
I've tried link2sd on naa kernel + minicm7 it's not working.. it will tell you to quick reboot the phone most of the time. Never had this problem on stock rom and kernel.
For now if u want link2sd just go back to stock kernel and rom.

[Q] GINGERDX Questions!

the requirements stated :
Requirements
- Rooted
- ClockworkMod Recovery (v014+)
- Latest kernel and latest baseband xxx015
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+???

[Q] Cant overclock in GingerDX

First of all im saying that im new and noob in custom rom section. my 1st installed custom rom was KuyaDroid. in that rom i was able to overclock my x8 in cmmod/performance section. but i cant do it in GingerDX.
My GingerDX installed process:-
1.first i installed "update-GingerDX.v019" in xrecovery via install custom zip,
2.then i also install "addons.modules.for.stock.kernel" by same process and full wipe and reboot.
i found that Duell touch works, but i cant overclock it like in kuyadroid.Now plz tell me what should i do?

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

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....

No you need tap on the screen,also you need to have installed.

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

[Q] am having CM7 (nightly20) &Novav11 kernel. CAN I OVERCLOCK???...if so, how??

am running the latest CM7 release for the black and also the latest NOVA kernel. my question is
"CAN I OVERCLOCK???...IF SO, HOW EXACTY???"....can any of you great guys give me some detailed information on how to overclock the black EXACTLY????..awaiting your response eagerly.
P.S.-> i used the search tool but i didn't find the step by step guide for overclocking CM7 Op. Black. so, please don't flame if i reposted
You can't find it, because it doesn't exist yet. If you had read the nova kernel thread past few pages, aprold already mentioned that he is working over it but hasn't succeeded yet.
So, the only way till now is NOVA ROM (froyo), which supports the overclocking.

I'm about to upgrade my old-stock rom to NOVA. But a little confusing about it. Maybe anyone can help me
when I want to upgrade rom to Nova V11, what firmware do should I use?
I read from posts that nova based on stock rom but in this thread says that nova can use CM#20 nightly firmware..

You are confused with NovaROM and NovaKERNEL. The latter is a kernel for CM7. Please always read the thread tittle and OP. It will indicate what it is, what they are, and what they are for.

ooh, I seems about to get it.
so if I want to use NOVA ROM, what I need is just kernel for NOVA V11?
I mean, in recovery mod, I just choose the NOVA zip after factory reset and wipe cache?
if so CM#20 is kernel for CM7 do i still need to put that CM#20 in my sdcard and choose it on recovery?
IMO, when I wipe all data and partition cache, then Nova Kernel will have no firmware, 'cause when I download nova kernel, it's just 5MB but the CM#20 is 100MB. and when i see inside the zip, CM#20 contain app,bin,etc,framework,font,lib,media,tts,usr,vendor,xbin. but in Nova just contain app,bin,etc,lib,xbin.

u r all messed up!!!!....in a summary:
1. NOVA V8 is a ROM.
2. NOVA KERNEL (latest V11) is NOT for the NOVA OR STOCK ROM...it is for CM#20 nightly build.
3. In Stock ROM, u can flash another kernel called "QUASAR" kernel.
now, for applying a kernel, u need to flash the ROM FIRST and then FLASH THE KERNEL. u don't need to do a factory reset if u flash a kernel but u should do a factory reset if u flash a ROM....
hope this helps

Ah my friend, you still don't get it. Let me put it this way
(NovaROM (NovaV8) / CM7 nightly#20 / LG Stock 2.2 Froyo) = are ROMs
(Quasar (NovaROMv8) / NovaKERNEL v11) = are KERNELS
Nova v8 (ROM) contains a custom KERNEL called Quasar, and it is based on stock 2.2 Froyo. All-in-One.
CyanogenMod 7 (CM7) is Gingerbread AOSP based. It has Nightly#0-#20 and few RC0 compiled by members. We have custom KERNELS for it, NovaKERNEL v1-v11, HuexxxKERNEL v1-v4.
In short, NOVAKERNELS SHOULD ONLY BE USED with CM7 and in some instances with stock Gingerbread (Tested with V20a, V20l, Marquee). You cannot combine NOVAKERNEL with NOVA8 (ROM). Please read more what's the difference of ROM and KERNEL.

Looks like with NOVA KERNEL V12 you'll can Overclock
yes...let's hope so :\
Yes you can expect the feature on v12 but be patient
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
If you have the knowledge you could always compile something yourself, but I guess very few of us do so I recommend waiting for the upcoming V12 version of the kernel wich is said to have the overclock feature.

It is impossible to have. INT2EXT+ without having a Int.d folder supported kernel, flashing a custom kernel isn't hard. Just make sure your phone is rooted and has CWM5 installed. Also, be sure the kernel you want to flash is made for stock ROM instead of CyanogenMod ROM.

Yeah but I have a problem. My ace is incompatible with flashed kernels. If I flash a new kernel after installing a rom, ill have major battery drain issues. No matter how much I charge and calibrate. I've always had this problem.
So I'm guessing I can't use it unless someone takes the stock rom and manually adds the kernel and gives me the whole zip. Who's up for it?

What if you flash a stock rom with battery extender or nims kernel, same battery drain?

If I flash it WITH the kernel already in the rom, I don't think so. But if I flash the rom first THEN the kernel, I'll get issues.
Too bad though. I really wanted to try out that new KTS. Been switching roms for too long so I want a bugless battery efficient rom.
