Full-wipe is not the answer to anything people!

Hey guys,
i got the same problem.
I tried to run the following rom on my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486 (latest version v009) and after i "installed" the rom, it wont start in the right way.
The phone is always freezing on the cyanogen mod 7 screen...
I got the same problem on the froyobread release too ;/
Maybe there s someone who know how to fix it?

The problem was for me too. But when I connected phone, not only it turned black, it rebooted and i saw bootanimation, and that was a loop od 3 times. I fixed it with Manager permissions option, try it, maybe it will be usefull, I don't know.

May be because you use a theme which is installed on sd card.

Can someyone tell that to doxianh?

I found how to fix black screen on usb only: when connect your phone (turn on storage function) transver files and do what you want,then in windows find your device or sd card right click on it and click ,,eject'' then on phone press ,,turn off usb storage'' and then just remove cable and screen will be automatically loaded try

You must always click eject whenever disconnecting any kind of external storage (sd, usb...)

I know that,but if I press back button when cable is connected everything freeze

Full wipe and battery reset solved my problem ;=)

hi, i have a problem: I use gingerdx 009 and sometimes it ask me for PIN unlock operator; i click "exit" and the x8 starts normally.. why?

Thats hapens to me because we have moded xperia to work on 1 mobile operator but rom like gingerDX support it much more just ignore thst

When I just installed the GingerDX ROM I had the freeze on animation problem, and it gones with a full-wipe just after the reinstallation of the ROM, you might try install the custom zip and do a full wipe before restart from xrecovery
for the USB problem, as the last post, you have to use safe eject before turn off USB massibe storage from the phone

[Help] My X8 reboots once enable Wifi

My X8 phone runs in reboot loop once I turn on wifi. After on wifi, the phone reboot in few seconds. Then, it goes into "Free Xperia" & CM7 logo, and then reboot again as a loop.
My X8 phone is E15i, running CM7.1, with FXP 43 kernel.
I tested some features are working, like 3G, dial calls, speaker music, multi-touch (dual-touch?). I can even install apps from market via 3G.
So, I uses CWM to do "wipe data/factory reset". The phone can load up successfully again.
Does anyone know what's going on? Any solution?
Thank you very much!

No reply? oh, did I post in a wrong location?

Confused
DOnt know!

oh it's confusing? oh sorry
Basically, My X8 phone reboots immediately after I turned on wifi.
and it's running CyanogenMod 7.1 (Android ver 2.3.7), with FXP 43 kernel.

I am having the same problem
I am having the exact same problem on my LG G2x Domination build 79 as well.
Every time I turn my WiFi on, phone restarts it self
I tried pulling out the battery but that didn't fix it.
if anyone have any tips please help us out
Thank you

Yea, Wifi is still not working up to now :S
Any guess or any related hint I can refer to as well?
Now I mostly just use bluetooth to transfer apps XD

Well , did you try flashing another ROM ?

The ROM and kernel are very old with many bugs, the development of them stopped a long time ago. Flash this kernel and this ROM.

I am facing the same issue.
After installing the latest MiniCM and nAa Kernel, my phone started rebooting constantly -when enabling the wi-fi or Data. .
I have noticed that it works only on charger. I decided to re-flash to stock 2.1 but it did not help.
I also flashed Android 1.6 stock on the phone but it did not help.
It is like it has no battery power.... What can I do?
I

Okay all!
I had that prob when my phone on old kernel and ROM
Root n unlock BL
Flash the latest kernel
Backup!
Factory reset, etc
Flash ROM
Done!
Do not restore data in diferent kernel!
It make some error like wifi bug!

I did it with no success. Any other ideas?
Tried to use the stock kernel,nAa 13 With MiniCM (latest version) I am getting worried. What could have happened? The phone is working only on charger without reboot.

I even tried afls9 kernel+GDXv28b.
The steps i have performed:
1) Wipe data/factory reset
2) Wipe cache partition
3) Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
4) Wipe battery stats.
5) Flash rom + addons
Nothing happens. As soon as the USB is disconnected from the PC or Charger it starts constant reboot...... :crying:

[Q] HELP XPERIA X8 Failed Flash(kernel) WON'T BOOT UP

Hello, I have unlocked Bootloader today and then tried to flash kernel and it failed and when I try I boot up the phone it won't boot! It just stays in black screen and vibrates when you turn it on. Won't even load to the Sony Ericsson screen ;(. Please help. Need the phone before 14th July. Thanks

Go to here download the first one (219mb) place it in your firmwares folder (where you place kernels) > run x10mini flasher> select flash > select the file > and flash and it's automatically clicked on 'loader.sin' doesn't matter if it's either kernel.sin or w/e it will flash both anyway but just have it on loader.sin lol.
Have your x8 turned of. Connect the usb to the android but don't connect the other end to the computer just yet. Once it's connected to the android and make sure it's turned off beforehand, connect the other end to the pc. Hopefully it should display the green LED light when you just connect it. Hit and hold the back button once you see the LED and connect the usb into the computer. DO NOT LET GO OF THE BACK BUTTON. and wait until it says 'connect in usb debugging mode' and make sure it reads 'flashing finished' before that. After that take of the usb of both ends. power on the device and your device is brand new lol.
I also assume that it's impossible for a kernel to fail installation unless:
you didn't hold the back button down or you let go in the process.
You flashed the wrong kernel E.g. GDX and flashing naa ICS kernel (which is unlikely just an example) cause the KERNEl is only made for ICS and therefore they don't go together so ~
And also for some custom roms you must have it completed in a all in one process. That means you flash the kernel and straight away boot in CWM and flash the rom and install and wipe anything else bla bla bla. But if it is NOT a all in one process then u can just flash the kernel then flash the rom 1 by 1. Read the instructions carefully on the rom and the kernel that's required to flash to use the rom. E.g. ICS rom by nAa which is minicm9 u have to flash kernel then boot into cwm then flash rom. It says that in both articles but this mistake happened to me in the past when I forgot to put the rom in the sd card so I had to contact one of my mental cheap 'friends' lol. Hopefully this works out for you if you need any help just say. And try and provide me with some more detail if all else doesn't work. I'll try my best to answer your query. Remember if you flash that EVERYTHING is gone so it's better than nothing and I also like it when you get to start anew =D.
I also found the quickest and easiest way to get the rom kernel rooted and everything all in one guide I can write up for you once your finished. Let's just get you out of this situation first

That is brick phone..
Yeah just flash stock kernel with flashtool.
And don't forget if you want upgrade, your baseband must 015
and do not flash wrong kernel...must compatible with your rom..

Hello, Thanks for the Reply. But the Flasher doesn't detect the firmware you gave me? :O

Did u put the ftf file in flashtool's folder as required... u can even search on google for stock rom ftf file of x8/w8 it's easily available..
Sent from my X8 using xda premium

Yes, I put it in the Firmware folder. I downloaded some random stock '.ftf' yesterday and they don't fix the phone

OMG! I Just figured out what I did wrong! I didn't hold the back button during the Flashing! Not I have the Sony Erricson screen and it boots up! woahhh! . Love you guys xD

downgrading using flash tool is easier,,
but dont forget to hold the back button dude! while you plug the usb cable to your phone

hello, Can you guys tell me which kernel version is safe to flash on my x8?? Bricked my device once before so i dont wanna risk it again. im currently running on gingerdx (i dont know which CM version is that rom.). i have downloaded nAa 07. but i dont know whether its safe or not,. Any help would be much appreciated..

Gingerdx works only on alfs kernel for gdx not even alfs for cm7 you can use alfs gdx V09a but if u have hitachi drivers for lcd you might have some screen cuts, even though works fine for me you can try it or else V08.. don't forget flash addon for V08 and update rom for V09a after flashing kernel and rom..
Read all the instruction on gdx and alfs kernel thread you get to know everything required..
Sent by the walking walkman..

Try to change to stock kernel, maybe your rom don't support for that kernel...................or find a rom that support your flashed kernel, then flash the rom via flashtool

Depends on which GDX you're using. You have unlocked the bootloader? If so, use alfs kernel its on the rom's post -.-

as far as I know
miniCM7 - nAa
GigerDX - alfs
ow yeah!!
dont forget to always check updated kernel and ROM

had screen cut issues on alfs v9a, although worked fine for most of the games, i had to restart my phone to get rid of it. V8 was too laggy and didnt supported my rom very well. Had to switch to nAa 13 and DixinOS but its not smooth as alfsv9a. I will just have to wait for the bugs to be fixed. No option. Thanks dude,.
