SE Xperia X8 Gingerbread ROM

Alright , I'm tired of looking , but I can't find a thread , answering my question. Sorry if this is a repost.
Which is the most stable Gingerbread ROM for my SE Xperia X8 E15i ?
I want a very stable and fast version. (Most Important For Me)
I will use only the Stock Kernel.
It should be virtually bugless.
I would prefer a less battery-drain ROM.
Please provide an exact name for the ROM. Download Links will be appreciated.
Thanks

I still prefer GingerDX. It will work nicer if you can use Alfs kernel

for me gingerxperia is best of all on stock kernel.
gingerdx is very very laggy.

I'm using GingerXperiaRay + nAa kernel, but i don't think it works with stock kernel.
With the alfs kernel i was able to OC more than with the nAa kernel..
But tell me please, why won't you switch kernel?

t8 y we call sh!t ericsson
why they make **** like this?
just leave the bootloader alone..In my case, I'd hardbricked my w8 3times..
success only once..then when I tried to do it again my phone died man..
can't get into flash mode anymore...
sent to vendor (lucky they didn't know what I'd done)
then tried to unlocking boot loader again, and died again
(only 30miniutes the phone on my hand after take from SE)
and brick again (after 1hour took from SE)
lucky they can't detected what I've done..
on my 2nd bricked my w8 running e15i rom
heheheeee...now waiting my phone comeback!!
and I swear I won't to play with bootloader on w8 anymore
b'coz lucky on 1st time only, maybe when i sent to repair they make the security hole or whatever....

1. Flash back stock kernel using "Repair" option in SEUS or by using Flashtool
2. Download S1Tool from this post: S1Tool
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Launch s1tool.exe in the folder you extracted s1tool to.
5. Click on Restore button and then connect your phone to the PC in flash mode (press and hold back button while connecting your phone to the PC).
6. Wait for the process to complete. Congratulations! You now have relocked your bootloader!
7. To check, open s1tool.exe, click IDENTIFY button, turn off your phone, connect it in flash mode to the PC (press and hold back button while connecting your phone to the PC. The LED on your phone should flash green).
8. Continue holding back button until there is some output.

GingerXperia
GingerXperia works very nice with stock.kernel

Battery Drain
GingerDx V021 With Stock Kernel is giving me a lot of battery drain , even after battery calibrations. Wifi/3G are off ,background data and sync both are off... Display light is minimum. No background tasks running.
The battery reduces by 1% every 38seconds
No relief after reboot
Switching back to Froyopro V1.1

One thing I forgot to mention... I use SPB Shell 3D as my launcher...
Hope that doesn't cause the drain.
Well , there's no drain on my froyo ROM because of SPB Shell 3D
I had to Leave Gingerbread

Heipp bro! its happen to me before, i guess i've figured it out, its happen when your phone apps still "Running" using your SD card, try to close all running app [app you installed to SD Card i mean] plug usb again. see how it works. or try Turn off usb debugging mode [Untick]

btw thank all who helping me! =) ,im still thinking want unlock bootloader or not?
mine was 11w18(on my phone)i know it safe to unlock but.. if it brick it cant be recover via cwm right(pc companion also no use), it can be hard brick! lol too difficult for me, im not rich nor poor so i cant wasted throw away my phone if it hard brick..lol

Not really sure 11w18 safe or not bro, some people said they get hardbrick

ANYTHING UNDER 11W29 IS safe, so 11w18 is fine. people who were on 11w18 bricked cause they didn't read the instructions properly

hello, i had the same problem once with CM7. Go on to settings-wifi and networks-wifi settings then press the options button on your phone then click advanced, then click wifi sleep policy and click NEVER.
IF that ^^ didn't work then go to recovery mode and do a factory wipe.
IF that ^^ didn't work then just install a different rom.
thank if it helped

That's very weird. I've been using it with full app load for an entire week and got no bugs. Try wiping or something...
None of the bugs you posted applied for me, so that obviously isn't a bug in the rom

People who are using Joyos I recommend that you flash latest nAa kernel. I use Joyos too!

On the contrary, I recommend Alfs v08a CM7.
It has MUCH better overall performance than nAa and benchmarks prove it.
I've never had a problem with Alfs and I've tested both kernels on many ROMs, so I know.

no improvements frens....wat to do...should i change the kernel??? if yes then plz send me link of that kernel....

How about posting your present kernel?
Anyway, there shouldn't be problems with kernel if you use Alfs CM7 v08a or nAa 13/14
Do you have a .vcf backup on your card? That's necessary in order to be able to restore contacts.
As for the wifi...maybe even a kernel problem. Try reflashing one of the aforementioned ones

A-B works,camera isn't laggy,+ other things I don't remeber. I was on Alfs too but now I'm on nAa 14 for long time. And battery is very good-about 5 days!

That counts for Alfs too! I had nAa for a long time and decided to switch to Alfs because it performs much better in benchmark, esp. the uncapped version. No problems with nAa kernel, but. Alfs is still fully functional and very fast.

i had the same problems. here's what i did:
For contact problems:
1. wiped out everything in recovery (full factory reset)
2. re-installed joyos
For wi-fi (do this after you have re-installed joyos because if not you will have the same wi-fi error):
1. turn on wifi and try to download anything from google play
2. turn of your phone while your wi-fi is on and DLing.
3. turn on phone and see that its downloading.
hope this helps, if not please don't blame me.

If you get the same problem on the stock rom, maybe it could be SE fault.
But probably, try these:
````Press Thanx please````
1. If you didn't full wipe after installing, do that. Maybe it could fix the bug
2. Did you try to tweak the build.prop or something related to wifi? Maybe that's the problem's root. Try to re-install the rom.
3. Try to install the other versions of froyobread like v023e OR get a stable rom like GingerDX latest release (i know froyobread is also good but still, as u have a bug).
4. Did you try to reboot with wifi on? Try that! these things work sometimes~ :good:

Yes, this could also do the trick Luck is what can solve your problem... :fingers-crossed: } fingers crossed! xXx

Delet all the wifi connections that have been saved.. wifi probs happens if you have 3 or more wifi connections remembered by phone.. do forget all the connections then try to search after a reboot..
