[Q] Problems installing MiniCM7-2.1.5 on X8

Hey guys. I'm new here and I have a problem installing MiniCM7-2.1.5. I did everything as said, but my x8 ended up in a BootLoop. I booted my phone and installed nAa kernel. I'm currently running Srom-2.2.1 Froyo v3. So what seems to be the problem? Thanks.

I don't thing u sucess flashing your kernel
just use gingerDX it very easy to install
no more pain...

I agree with, nelikp

kernel not compatible!
same problem with me, i have w8(clone of x8 as we all know), i was using MiniCM7-2.0.7, i got a notification saying MiniCM7 updates is avaiable, so i downloaded,
tried to install by CWM Recovery,
i did factor reset/full wipe-Had a backup-Choosed Install custom zip from sd-selected MiniCM7-2.1.5-x8.zip, installation started , then it prompted that i have to upgrade my kernel to nAa o6, so i downloaded the kernel.ftf, flashed it using flashed tool, i succeded flashing,
and again tried to Install the updates but had the same problem.

update problem
pls upload tutorial vedio to update mincm7 from 2.0.7 to 2.1.5

Try reflash the kernel? Sory for my english

is this normal?

When I change my stock rom 2.1 to gingerdx v19 I use CWM to do this. To start out with I have version 4.0.1.5 of CWM but after installing gdx it gives me version 3.2. So GDX override my original CWM version. Is this normal? Can I prevent this kind of downgrade? SO where is my newer version - does it get wiped over?

It usually happens. Since Ginger dx has a preinstalled cwm. Gdx must have lower version
.IV got cwm that is your CURRENT version (3.). Hope you understand more bout it now. (We were all noobs at one stage )

hey i have the same problem....i used naA kemel which quotes it has cwm 5.x.x but when i installeed gdx v20 it opens up with cwm 3.2.x

i am all ears as to how we can correct this situation
I hate to have my CWM downgraded for no good reason

First install gingerDX then flash the alfs kernel v05 it over rides the stock kernel with a new one and it is including CWM 5.x.x
Hope i helped

so what you are saying is install the one with latest CWM last so it will override the previous, which brings to yet another question - is it OK to flash the rom first before the kernel? So you are suggestion this sequence:
flash stock rom-> unlock bootloader -> flash gingerdx -> flash custom kernel

Precisely like that

[Q] Each ROM stuck at boot screen

Hi, this is my first thread.
I tried to install GingerCruzt 8.4 on my X8 but failed. I am on stock 2.1 ROM which is rooted and xRecovery installed.
I don't understand where I was wrong.
1. Boot into recovery
2. Full wipe
3. Choose install custom zip
4. Again full wipe (also tried without this)
5. Reboot
6. Stuck at boot screen (picture with girl and title GingerCruzt) for looong time (15-20 mins)
Do I need to wait longer?
I also read many threads about this but didn't find solution.
Also tried to install FroyoBread 023b via xRecovery but same thing happend.
CWM Recovery came with FroyoBread and I tried to instal GingerDX 021 but no luck. Same problem.
What is the solution if it is solvable?

I'd rather not unlocked bootloader.
@sidewalk_
Tried full wipe but did not help. Maybe I missed something?

But I think you must!

I also try to install FroyoBread and it stuck at boot screen. It does not need custom kernel. I think that I missed something, but what question is now?

Thanks for help.
Tried everything that you wrote. Restore with PCC, full wipe, wipe dalvik, battery cache but nothing.
Baseband xxx015
Kernel 2.6.29
Build 2.1.1.A.0.6
Can be problem a busybox (1.17.2)? When I rooted phone I installed busybox by coping it to /system/bin without installing it via market (this tutorial youtube.com/watch?v=sJIU5qIdC-w). Same i did with chargemon and xrecovery. Now I find that busybox needs to be installed via market.
Is there a diference betwen chargemon in this tutorial above and that one in stock ROM.

Me again
I tried to repair with PCC, again.
Rooted with SuperOneClick folowing this tutorial (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1046605).
Rebooted.
Than I copied chargemon, busybox and xrecovery to /system/bin/
Rebooted.
Enter xRecovery.
Flashed GingerDX v013 via xRecovery
Rebooted
Enter CWM Recovery
Flashed GingerDX v021
Flashed Addons for stock kernel
Full wipe
Reboote
Stuck at GingerDX logo for 30 mins than I pulled batery out
Baseband xxx015
Kernel 2.6.29
Build 2.1.1.A.0.6
Also I tried to flash this (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105745) via xRecovery and tried to install v021.
Btw, I tried to instal Floyo 1.0 but nothing.
I am out of ideas. Please help )

Solved. SD card was problem. Probably bad one.

[Q] Xperia x8 rebooting

I put the new GingerDX v23b rom and now my xperia keeps rebooting after the SE logo.I reflashed 015 baseband i eventried to flash alfs kernel but its still restarting and no one else has the same problem .... I also installed from xrecovery soem zip with some alfs addon dont remember what was it it was right after i installet GingerDx v23b please help how to fix it

xRecovery? No, you should install with CWM. Do this:
Install GingerDX
Make a full wipe
Flash the Alfs vold update (I think it's already included in GDX but anyway)
Flash the addon (adreno libs)
Wipe cache, dalvik-cache
Reboot.

[Q] Upgrading to newer GDX from xrecovery

Hi all!
I got one X8. It has Floyo by Racht v.0.30 (Android 2.2.9), stock kernel 2.6.29 ([email protected] #1) and xrecovery mini-alpha.
I want to upgrade its ROM to GingerDX. I have read that GDX versions newer than 0.13 have to be installed with CWM.
I have read the forums across but no answer to this specific problem.
My question is: can I install x-parts and not brick the phone?
I do not know the exact version of xrecovery - it says just mini-alpha.
What is the safest way of upgrading to GDX on stock kernel and (rather old) xrecovery?
Thanks all!

install CWM and flash GDX :good:

It would be best if you unlock your bootloader, flash Custom kernel with CWM preinstalled and then flash latest (or whatever) version of GDX

Is there a way without unlocking the bootloader?
This X8 is newer than 11w29!
Tnx

some older versions of gdx can be flashed by xrecov, and they also have cwm. or you can use x8toolbox to install cwm on your device.

Here is how I did it:
1. Downloaded CWM-recovery-4.0.1.5-e15-Amend.zip to SD card
2. Rebooted to xrecovery
3. Install custom zip and chose CWM-recovery-4.0.1.5-e15-Amend.zip
4. Rebooted - Floyo was unusable
5. Downloaded GingerDX 029
6. Rebooted to CWM
7. Cleared cache, dalvik and battery cache
8. Installed GDX custom zip
Works nice!
