[Q] Error while installing custom roms

On my Sony Ericsson W8 I can't install kyuaDroid, GingerXperia, MiniCM and etc. I can only install GingerDX and FroyoBread. When I try to install the roms which I mentioned above all (except GingerDX and FroyoBread) are giving error like this " This rom is not compactable with your baseband. Update first to M7XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015".
But I have the SAME baseband.
How to solve it ?
My W8 is rooted and has Unlocked bootloader. What should. I do ? I should change kernel ? Or something?
As I'm a noob I don't know How to solve this.. So please help me as soon as possible.

Wow, no one replied? I'm having the same problem mate...

some roms need to be installed with cwm not xrecv, and custom kernels too, perform a fullwipe before and after flashing any rom

I found the same problem. I use CWM and it works for me fine in installing different ROM's

They are some baseband problems if you don't update phone to 2.1.1.A.0.6 or 2.1.1.C.0.0!

[Q] GingerXperia V22 , Call screen lag

Hi,
I am using W8 and using the custome ROM GingerXperia V22 which is beautiful and i really like it. Only thing i am having issue is the call screen lag, When i receive the call or call a contact,all i see is a black screen for couple of seconds. Any idea how to overcome this?

its because you use stock kernel+gingerxperia. same happens with stock+gingerdx
flash alfs06 kernel which i believe is compatible with both ROMS: gingerxperia and gingerdx

i have that problem to with v22 and stock kernel. is there an solution without a custom kernel cause i am afraid of unlocking the bootloader cause chance of simlock and brick

whats your phone date? if it is less than 11W29 and you know to read a few steps in english, you will be fine

You are right it just seems to be very hard, but after all it takes only 5 minutes to unlock and install custom kernel....i know it coz iv just do it...

you could try apps from the market like Go Contacts ...works well for me!

V23 update
Mi new version is update

flash alfs kernel..
it solves the problem

Can you pls put the link where i can know how to flash the kernels?? tks for the reply.

[Q] Can bootloader be unlocked with GDX v025?

I read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436957
but i don't have the stock ROM, and was wondering if i can unlock the bootloader on GDX v025. I have a W8 with 11W20 and i plan on installing MiniCM9. Also, i read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24304432
What does he mean about flashing it to Gingerbread ROMs? I'd appreciate the help.
And is getting the stock ROM as simple as downloading it and then flashing it with CWM? and will i need to update it to the latest basebands or is there one already updates that's available?
Thanks

It's is highly advisable to be on stock ROM. Just flash it via PCC/SEUS. Why this is required , I don't know. But always people recommend unlocking on stock ROM. I too would therefore recommend the same. Get back to stock ROM
Don't risk it by unlocking on GDx v025
What he means that the kernel is meant for ICS ROMS only and is NOT meant for GB or stock ROMS

Another thing
So...
1) Flash Stock Rom using SEUS (will this be the one with the latest baseband and will my phone still be rooted?)
2) Unlock Bootloader while on Stock Rom (as stated here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436957)
3) Flash ICS kernel while on Stock Rom (as stated here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24304432)
4) Flash MiniCM9 (as stated here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575094)
Am i right?
Also, is it necessary to install all to Google Apps which nAa has provided a link to?
And where does the currently rooted state of my phone lie in all of this?
Thanks

Not sure about SEUS , but if you use PCC , your phone gets unrooted.
I guess both ways, you have to root again. But that's not a cumbersome task. Just use superoneclick and then place xrecovery files in /system/bin
Just make sure that after flashing the kernel , you flash the ROM directly after it. If you reboot your phone after flashing the kernel , you will encounter a soft brick.
It is not necessary , but recommended. I would suggest that you flash Gapps (Google Apps) , and then manually remove the applications you do not want by using apps like "Root Uninstaller" from the Play Store.
I did not understand your last question.
I am 99.999% sure of what all I told you is correct. However , since I have a locked bootloader , I might have missed somewhere (I'm sure I have not though)

I unlocked my 11w18 with GDX , no problems
Sent from my X8 running nAa and D_d piece of art called MiniCM9.

That's for xRecovery. But MiniCM9 requires CWM to install...instructions please?

Sorry to keep bugging you, but do you need ADB Shell or something similar to run the scripts mentioned? Or is it just a simple double click?

No 3g signal after successful unlock GDX | alfs | 015

Hey guys. Sorry if this is the wrong section.
I have an e15a xperia x8 11v14 (perfectly unlockable)
The thing is that i wanted to update to gingerdx v28 from scratch so i went back to stock settings ( rom 2.1, no addons, original baseband, etc).
I followed all the steps to do a clean install
Installed e15a 015 baseband
Unlocked the phone with s1tool and msm7227_semc (before doing this it still showed e15a model, after this it started showing e15i)
Installed alfs kernel
Installed rom Gingerdx
Installed addons
blah blah
Pretty straight forward :good:
Now the thing is that i dont have 3g signal at all, so i went to check the baseband and it was half correct, like i said before it ended in 015 but my model said it was an e15i. Correct me if i'm wrong but i think e15i are models from europe so that would explain why 3g would't work (i'm from south america).
I tried to restore the phone using seus or pcc, with no luck (it kept saying that my phone was updated ).
I got all stock kernels, roms, basebands from stickies in XDA so i don't think that could be the problem.
Somehow AFTER i unlocked the phone the model changed and i cant change it back (tried rooting, flashtool, relock and so on)
Everything else works like a charm, very smooth, very fast, no complaints.
Any ideas about how change with another method cuz now i can't go back to my original e15a model.
PS: apn settings are OK too

Well i dunno if somehow this will be useful to anyone but i SOLVED the problem.
These are the steps i followed (IN THIS EXACT ORDER)
Before unlocking it root it with flashtool
Verify with s1tool it's locked (here's the post i used to do the unlocking http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436957)
If everything is cool proceed to this:
install baseband 015 (for e15a model in my case)
install alfs kernel (latest for GDX)
install rom (latest GDX)
install alfs addon
full wipe
wipe davilk cache
wipe battery cache
enjoy
Anyway thanks to all for reading this post, hope it helps to people with my same problem.
PROBLEM SOLVED

Hey pal !
If you bricked your phone you should check this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011071
About the baseband, first u should check which baseband is correct for you. Phones in America use different frequency ranges than phones in Europe so, to begin with i'd need u to tell me where the phones was sold...anyway, most cooked roms need 015 baseband to be flashed instead of the 006. Check in your phone settings if your device model is E15a (a is for America) or E15i (i is for International, but mostly Europe).
For example: if your phone is E15a you should flash E15a_X8a_2.1.1.A.0.6_Baseband_015 in order to install any cooked rom.
You can find almost everything you'll need here

Hello,
I have no problem with 3G, but problem with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, both not running. I have a Xperia X8 e15a, with Cyanogenmod 7.1 and FXP030 kernel, do I need to install stock kernel?
Or if I install Alfs kernel would it slove my problem?
My smatphone was unlock successful, from 11W12.
Thanks.

Hey pal !
If I were you i'd set everything to stock (kernel, rom and so on -REMEMBER TO BACKUP YOUR DATA BEFORE-) and retake all the steps to do a clean install according to the original post requirements. Check your corresponding ROM post
Hope it helps
See ya

Hello Destroseitor,
I install, Cyanogenmod based on Guide install Cyanogenmod from Stock 2.1.
Ok I will set everything to stock, and than can I install the updated rom like Cyanogenmod 7.1(or could be GingerDX)?
Thanks.

Hey buddy
I strongly recommend gingerdx, it's the most stable rom i've tested and you have the choice to use a stock kernel or a modded one (like alfs or naa), plus there's a great guide to install it.

Repair with official firmware and check the camera there or flash latest gdx top on nAa kernel
The official firmware it will flash stock Rom and kernel to
Info:
Also if you have plans to relock the bootloader must do it only in stock kernel..NEVER RELOCK BOOTLOADER ON CUSTOM KERNEL
