Im guessing you can install a custom kernel successfully? When installing Alfs kernel, flash the latest version then install vold update with CWM. Your PC will then recognise your phone OR just install nobodyatalls kernel

Ya your probably running Alfs kernel too!? Change to Nobodyatalls kernel or stock. It will work! GingerDx v22 there is only small updates anyway so you could stay on v21 and wait (patiently) for his next release. OR you could invest in a new CLASS 10 SD Card. They are going for cheap these days if you know where to look
yes...i think want to change to class 10 too..wait for my salary LOL
for now i will stay on v21

Do you have a class 4 SD card 2? It will work if you revert back to a stock kernel. I know you like the whole custom kernels. My advice would be buy a class 10 SD card. Class 4 is slow
so i wud hav to go 2 stock kernel and then flash naa???

1. root your phone
2. install xrecovery
3. flash gingerdx version 013 !!!!!!! (using XRecovery)
4. boot your phone in gingerdx013 and then reboot in CWM recovery !!!!!
5. flash gingerdx version 021 !!!!!!! (using CWM)
6. flash the other applications for stock kernel recommanded by dx

the link gingerdx013 didnt work for me...simply google it
Give MiniCM 2.0.7 a try... it's run on stock kernel (unlike MiniCM 2.1.6) and the only problem i have is spontaneous reboots now and then... otherwise, it's more stable than anything else i've tried.

It seems that your phone is rooted already
If you want a real stable and fast custom rom go for Froyo Pro 2.2 this is the most stable and fast rom i ever tried. It comes out w/ usual GB features like real dual touch on a cypress digitizer, OC, to name a few.
Just follow the instructions and ur done..

Install Xrecovery
have you rooted your phone already?
If not use SuperOneClickv2.1.1-ShortFuse to root phone once you root the phone with SuperOneClick reboot phone and busybox should be intalled
make sure you enable USB debuggin...
settings/applications/development enable usb debuggin
to install xrecovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970842
use root explorer and put the files you downloaded to the path system/bin
and its done... reboot and once you see the sony ericsson logo press the back button repetedly, am pretty sure that with 2 or 3 clicks would be enough to access Xrecovery
press thanks if it was helpfull

The error message and related problem is written right there in front of your nose:
The ZIP file on your SD card does not seem to be ok. Bad download or corrupted while copying onto the SD.
EDIT: If you want to make sure that a large file got copied correctly to the SD (assuming the file you downloaded is ok):
1. Get HashTool
2. Start HashTool, make sure at least "MD5" is checked and drop the ZIP onto the program window.
3. Save the MD5 hash as a .txt file
4. Mount the phone in USB storage mode
5. Copy the ZIP
6. Drop the ZIP you copied onto the SD onto Hashtool and make sure the MD5 matches.
If the MD5 does not match, then the file on the SD is damaged. Turn off the phone, take out the SD and put it into a card reader. Delete the ZIP, copy anew, recheck the MD5. If it's ok now give it a try ... and research a possible problem with the Android drivers on your computer later on.
If it should turn out that the file is also damaged on your computer ... either the download broke (pay close attention to make sure the file came in completely) or you have a funny problem with your hard drive or file system integrity.

Correct - try another ROM or re-flash GingerXperia.
See the edit in my post above about how to make sure that the ZIP got copied correctly.

Repair it using PCC and start all over again, but this time use super1click for rooting your phone and x8toolbox for install CWM and xRecovery
Or try to pull out battery for couple minutes and see if problem still persist, than start your phone without sdcard inside, maybe you sdcard causing it
so far ok ...but it restarted bout 10 mins ago...i scare it happen again..i really hope not, the last time i serviced my phone is caused the sd card problem
I'm going slightly mad....
I've tried all possibilities, but with no use.
Everything went bad, when i unlocked bootloader, and (tried) flashed nAa kernel to use new rom's for my X8. SEMC unlocked bootloader, rooted phone, everything went fine, but... First my phone was stuck on nAa kernel screen after flashing (it said succesfully) nAa kernel and latest cm rom based on nAa kernel. Since than, i tried 10 different nAa based rom's, flashed alfs kernel succesfully and alfs based rom's, stock kernel and stock rom, and than old rom's which worked flawlessly (on stock kernel), relocked bootloader, booted without sd card, everything. But only combo which works is flashed stock kernel and stock rom 2.1.1. Why? What has been gone wrong that now even old rom's based on stock kernel aren't working? Problem with every rom and kernel combo now is that after s.e. (or if i use custom kernel - their logo), goes custom rom logo and than mobile reboots itself and goes all over again - s.e. logo, custom rom logo, and reboot. Left mobile for hours - same thing. Only when i install stock kernel and stock rom (together in one .ftf file), everything works fine. Now phone is with relocked bootloader, rooted, and on stock rom, with everything working correct. But wont let me flash any custom rom, and i don't wanna use phone like this, because nothing is like i'm used to be (i used mostly gingerdx or gingerxperia rom's).
Please help!!

Which kerenl do you use? Try to format your sd card it might help( before you do a backup of it )
what's your kernel? if it's alfs you have to install an aditional zip file that is on alfs kernel first page : update-rom-chargemon+vold-AlfsKernel.zip
its stock ...

Did you partition your sd card? Try to reformat it, not just quick reformat, its better if you can reformat it in your phone, but if you cannot reformat it on your phone try to use HDD low level formatter. If all things fail, its either on Custom ROM or your SD card.
hey man i've got the same problem.........i reverted back to stock from froyobread and i partitioned it for link2sd.......and then it wasnt mounting............i also tried reformating but it did not help....
First I've rooted my x8 (15i) successfully, I installedl nAa 13 and installed a Rom. I didn't liked the rom so I flash to my original kernel and version (2.1Update). And I flashed nAa13 again to install Minicm ICS rom but It didn't work for me.. So I flashed again to my original fw.. (I'm a newbie here in flashing so everytime I want to flash a new rom I flash first to my oriniginal fw so I dont know if it's the right way). After I flsahed to my orig fw I've format my sd card (I forgot to unroot my phone.) And now I unroot my phone.. Relocked the bootloader. And root it again but when i root it and connect to usb cable open it on my computer I dont see the system folders (like Android folder) Ive tried everything like using superoneclick, x8 toolbox, flashtool to root and those application said that my device is rooted but I can't see the android folders. What can I do to see it again..? I wish someone could help me. I tried everything but it's not working. (
Try software update/reset using the Sony Ericsson programme on your computer (SEUS) - that should reset it to 'stock'?

haha!
lolz!
if you want to flash new ROM just have rooted phone and unlock phone!
then flash the kernel that is the requirement for the ROM..i.e nAa - MiniCM7 OR alfs - DingerDX
I don't what you mean?
u can't see your folder from your PC or from your phone??
if you want to see from your phone, download and install file manager or root explorer
..
heheh im sorry I'll explain it further. When I root my device and it become rooted (installed superuser) and plug it in my computer i cannot see the SYSTEM FILES OF ANDROID. Like Android Folder, DATA.. That's what i meant but the software (like x8tool, superoneclick, flashtool) says that my device is ALREADY ROOTED. BUT I CANT SEE DATA SYSTEM FOLDERS WHEN I PLUGGED IT IN..
I never see the /system folder on my pc with the phone connected. Why not just use a root browser app on your phone?

hey i've root it again the superuser was installed. And when i plugged it in again in computer and OPEN TO VIEW FILES the folders contains only a FOLDR and 2 xml domcument. I thought when it is ROOTED I can see the Android Folders, DCIM folders, DATA, But why I cant see it. (
Rooting has nothing to do with those folders. Use your phone for a bit and they'll pop up, take a picture etc.

thats correct!
you are rooted.
in stock rom i dont think there is any use for "android" folder as you cant install apps at your sd(i dont remember if i had this folder when i was at stock,but how could i, its been a looong time!), but for "dcim", try to take a pic,as mentioned above!

Try restoring ya phone via. PC Companion. There's a thread in XDA..
If you can access CWM, just flash another ROM.
cwm can be accessed even if system is formatted... enter cwm.. if you dont have a rom in sd card then mount usb storage then copy a rom in sdcard. and then install the rom

If you read his post, you will know that he's on stock kernel. Recoveries for stock kernel are stored in /system. He wiped it => he doesn't have recovery.

Even with stock kernel? Because if I'm not mistaken on stock kernel the recovery comes with ROM while in custom kernel the recovery comes from the kernel itself.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

No if his phone has locked BL. The best way is to flash the phone with PCC or to flash 2.1 firmware with flashtool.
