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...

hi all , i am using GDX v21 it's great and all but the problem is ...
-it keeps rebooting by itself!
-at times when the screen timeout it wont turn on ...i am forced to remove the battery to reboot the phone
at first i thought it'a bug so i full wiped my phone restored with tita backup
about a day later boom! it happened again!! AND I CANT TAKE IT!!
it happens when i
-open wifi
-downloading songs
-or open wifi in general
THAT IS WHY IT'S SO ANNOYING I AM DOWNLOADING SONGS AND IT REBOOTS i lost all my progress!! ARRR
so is there a solution?? or is there going to be a bug fix in the next GDX version?
i am considering a new rom ...what is the most stable rom out there? i tried froyobread 2.2 but the link i am unable to enter ...help please!
have you wiped it WITHOUT doing a titanium backup?? it could be an app causing it.
also what kernel version you running?
gingerxperia v13/14
erm..imma using stock kernel~ i full wipe throught cwm ...i cant enter xrecovery too with GDX ...i love GDX really...but this is quite serious
have you done a re-wipe and installed NOTHING? dont do a titanium restore.
tried before when the 1st time this problem occured...back then i have no tita but no use
is your bootloader unlocked? you could try a custom kernel it might help. or you could try a different rom to see if you still get the same problem.
also do you know how to use ADB? if you do could you do a adb logcat -d logcat.txt and upload it for us to see?
no no unlock bootloader for me! hard brick my phone once and dont dare to do again ...
oh..i know whats adb...u mean terminal emulator? type that code in my w8?
it's too simple mate...
just use GDX v20 first...
heppy new year...

Out of nowhere my vibrations stopped working. There's no vibrations at all, that means when i touch the screen, when i receive a message or a phonecall, when i reboot my phone. I was running miniCM7 with nAa kernel (latest versions) and it worked correctly, but then it just happened. I reflashed my x8 to stock 2.1 - no luck. Flashed nAa v11 + miniCM7 2.1.9 - nothing's changed. My phone didn't fall to the floor or anything, but yet I think it might be hardware problem. Correct me if I'm wrong. Any suggestions guys ?

EDIT: Of course I performed a full wipe multiple times.

Eclair, Froyo or Gingerbread it doesnt matter as long as you have a stock kernel and stock rom. Lock the bootloader too. They might replace it hopefully

Hi, my X8's manufacturing date is 11W35 => so i can't unlock the bootloader as far as i know.
So which custom roms (maybe looking like gingerxperia or gingercruzt) work with a locked bootloader?
Thanks in advance
even i had a locked bootloader (11w41) W8 phone earlier, used gingerxperia v23 without any problems! With xperia active launcher! Nice combo!
Check any ROMS for stock kernel
You'll find the list in threads such as
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425240
And many more...
there's a PrimeHD that work like a charm
On topic the developer show the requirements - Stock, nAa, Alfs kernel.
Just try LinuXperia for stock
and see yourself
Thanks everyone but i found out that gingercruzt runs on stock kernel, so i just installed it and it runs very good.
kuyadroid was nice any stable (dony know why developer isnt updating it anymore)
im really sorry for people with 11w29 ++,,unlucky guyz...OooOoo

Hi, does the FM radio move from headset to loudspeaker (back and forth) easily with that stock rom?
As I am running PrimeHD and it gets locked on one or the other and won't switch back - also will randomly jump to loudspeaker when out and about - a touch embarrassing when Billy Ray Cyrus comes blasting from your phones and you can't get it back on the headset
If so - can you post which version of gingercruzt you flashed?
Cheers ..

I flashed v8.4 with stock kernel.

stuck at lockscreen? you mean your touchscreen doesn't work or not response?

take off the battery if you can't turn it off then reflash your ROM (do a full wipe first)... OR you can switch to another ROM..

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

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.
