But you should actually talk "source" as that's the major difference at hand ...
HAKA's PrimeHD (for Stock Kernel) bases upon MiniCM7 while GingerDX, as laid out above, is based on the CM7 HTC Hero source combined with racht's hackDROID as the ROM's base.
HAKA, as he's a developer building from source, already got my permission to use whatever parts of GingerDX he likes to use, and as you can see he actually uses parts of the Cyanogenmod settings package in his stock kernel PrimeHD ROM.
However, since I think it's good, and only benefits the user base, to have a choice of different ROMs NOT being based on the same sources I don't see why we should produce yet another MiniCM7 fork (there are already countless mCM7 knock-offs from an army of c/p "devs") or merge into a single ROM.
In short: each one of us follows his own goal, and GingerDX is only one of three Gingerbread ROMs that are based on a unique platform ... like ... PrimeHD is based on MiniCM7, KuyaDROID spin-offs are based on the HTC Legend sources, and ours is based on the HTC Hero sources. Again: Choice and variety.

Sorry,i was without my x8 for two months and im lil bit outdated :/
So where can i find fxp kernel,and is it better than linuxDx? Please help
Better try LinuxDX, there are too many different versions of this FXP Kernel+ROM with different things that are working or not, and no one does 100% work.
About FXP rom043+kernel030
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18967363&postcount=69
Depends on what rom you have. Fxp kernel also comes bundled with the rom. None of its seperate
Try Linux dx that's meant to be only one package

As per the custom Roms for x8, GingerDX by Doixanh is good or GingerXperia by XperiaFan13??
Or any other best roms for 2.3.?
Sorry for my bad english
Well it's all up to you. I'm using GingerDX and I'm satisfied with it. Haven't used Gingerxperia though.
Yap, there are tons of "What ROM" threads around you can dig up and read through.
In general it's way better to test the ROMs you've taken interest in yourself. People have different expectations, so it's really a matter of "taste".
I always used doixanh's custom ROMs because he always created the most stable and feature complete ones - at least in my experience. That being said, keep in mind that no custom ROM is 100% perfect and that different ROMs can cause different problems with the one or another app.
If GingerDX and GingerXperia are the ROMs you fancy then simply grab a copy and use each one for a few days ... in the end you will see which one fits your usage.
Ginger dx
it is the GOD of all roms in this forum (for x8)

I leave GDX for GXP. In my opinion Ginger DX become to much heavy for X8 and stock kernel. Ginger XP is lighter, faster and with a great look. Try it!

I would prefer gingerDX.

How do you mean heavy for x8. I have GingerDx on stock kernel. It works smooth and very fast. The only bug is in the QuickPic app..you cant scroll the first time you use the app.
Also I got awesome performance. And im overclocking on 710mhz and its very stable!
After using GingerDX for some months I came back to Shpit's XGin ROM (wich is being continued after some time). It's the fastest one, and it's very stable for overclocks. Plus, I was having some serious problems with phone stucking, sending large SMS messages and wi-FI bugs in GingerDX.
BTW, GingerDX is still a great ROM.

Yeh You're right mate. i also used the GingerDX from Doxinah. it's pretty good rom. but now i changed to ginger xperia because of the OC performance. Up to 820mhz that's truly awesome ... but i like GingerDX and Ginger Xperia.
Ginger DX is the first ROM that i installed in my W8, and its awesome with lots of features. However you will have to manually tweak for pinch to zoom and Timescape. Now i am using GingerXperia, its really awesome and fast, Pinch to Zoom and Timescape work too good.. Timescape is like just in Xperia mini pro. It looks beautiful. You can over clock your CPU which is an added feature in this ROM. I have put some pics of GingerXperia, hope it helps.
Yeah!! I also tried both of the Roms..and also I have W8...But I installed Ginger DX and also works smoothly..
GingerDX faster than gingerxperia on Alfv6 kernel but GingerXperia have more ram and more tweak(bravia engine, xloud...)
You'd make the chose
But i am not sure if my kernel is Alfv6 or not??how could I check that and if it is not how can i change it to Alfv6 kernel??Please help
And Also where can I get flashtool for my w8 so that I can Flash the files.(I read many posts and it was said that you need to flash the downloaded files by using flashtool).

If you unlock your bootloader and change the kernel you should be aware of what kernel you are installing before you do it.
Otherwise "Settings" -> "About phone" gives you info about you current rom and kernel.
Alf kernel thread is here btw.

Here is the X8 thread for Flashtool with a link to Flashtool's homepage. Unsure if Flashtool works on W8 since I have a X8. But since it officially support X10, X10mini (pro) and X8, i seems unlikely that it shouldn't.
GingerDX
gdx more stable for me gdx v22+ alf v6
Realy sorry for my noob question, I have a locked bootloader
I was researching a bit about the ICS for xperia x8, seeing that only custom roms based on AVD run on stock kernel, because the AVD is based on the same kernel version.
But, isn't possible to adapt the CM9 to run on stock kernel?
Why the CM9 don't have support for X8 on Cyanogenmod website? How developers made Roms based on it?
Moreover, why all the custom kernels are based on version 2.6.29.6? It is impossible or unnecessary to create a custom kernel based on 2.6.32 or up?
Sorry for my bad English.
So ics can't run on stock kernel.Stock kernel miss a lot of components from 3.0 kernel.The kernel is 2.6.29.6 but to have 2.6.32 need to port a lot of stuff so this mean need a lot of time.The nAa kernel's and alfs' kernel is pathed to 2.6.29.6 For now we have ported some components from 32,35,38 and 3.0 kernels.
We do have ics for stock but it is not for daily use. And the development has stopped so don't expect updates/fixes.
As naa said, stock kernel really can't support ics.
Sent from my rooted tomato using xda app
yes ics or jb on stock kernel is impossible and trying to port it is pointless.
We have ics for stock kernel, but gods sake its laggy, buggy. Its not good for daily use. U can find roms like ics. X8 is now old. But u can unlock bootloader by paid method. Next time please search.
Really thanks for your answers.
Interesting, I did not know that the custom kernels had several other superior features.
Actually run on ICS stock kernel is impossible, but there is very buggy roms projects based on avd can i run. What I was wondering is whether it is possible to install the CM9 on stock kernel. I do not think it was just out of curiosity noob ... :laugh:

I've tried the only two ics roms for the x8 stock kernel, and I know it's possible to INSTALL, but did not to use, because there are more bugs than fixes.
My doubt is if I can INSTALL CM9 in stock kernel, since I tested these roms are pure android, not CyanogenMod, they are based in AVD, android debug bridge. :fingers-crossed:
Guys I have made a custom rom based on CM7.nAa 14 kernel is compatible with CM7.But I want my custom rom also to support it.http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/crying.gifI have downloaded the .ftf kernel file and I have also extracted it.What changes do I have to do in my rom to make my rom work with the kernel?
Please give a detailed answer.
@OP
Well kudos to you for finding the right section. And what CM7 ROM exactly have you based your ROM on?
It already started working.But thanks for you trying to help.
What I want to know is that there is no networking in my rom.
Please help me fix it.I am talking about a custom rom developed by me based on cm 7.1.
What CM7.1 ROM have you based this on? I'm asking whether you have based your work on any existing ROM or not and the name of that ROM. If that ROM supports nAa-14 kernel, then your ROM will support nAa-14 kernel too.
My rom is supporting the nAa 14 kernel,I have tested it I have a bug in the network. It has no network at the moment. Do you know a fix for this bug ? I am running a rom that is developed by me and I am now testing it.
I haven't released the from here yet.
Sent from my X8 using xda app-developers app
Network bug? I don't even know if logcats can be used to debug. Can you try re-flashing the kernel and the ROM?
Basically you not need to change anything in the kernel. You need change the userspace drivers in the rom to match with the kernel level drivers. Both active x8 gb kernel (nAa and alfs) use similar drivers, except the proximity sensor (nAa use a modded one, alfs use the stock driver), you can use both with the correct libsensorservice and hw libs. And not 100% sure, but nAa use the older kgsl driver (1.1) alfs use newer (1.2), need to change the driver in the rom (libgsl.so).
To solve the network errors, you need to check the RIL related binaries and settings. Better if you give more detailed infos your base rom, the "cm7.1 rom" is not enough. CM7 but the origins? CM7 exists on thousands of phones. Better if you use x8 rom, or rom from a phone what use same hardware (msm7x27 like lg p500, galaxy mini, htc legend, etc...)

What more should I add to"cm 7.1"? Please make it clear. Its downloaded from the cyanogen mod download center. It is used as my base rom. I modded it with certain tweaks and replaced many apps and also added many other mods
Sent from my X8 using xda app-developers app
You could have said that it was downloaded directly from cyanogenmod.com for a start. It's pretty confusing when you say just CM7.1 because there are hundreds of CM7.1 ROMs lying around the Development forum, some for stock kernel, some for nAa-gb and others for alfs-gb.
Let me give you a tip if you're just adding tweaks and other mods, and not modifying it on a large scale. Instead of releasing a ROM, why not release a flashable-zip that will make required changes to the existing ROM that users are on. It will be unique and if you want, I can help you with it.
Summary: Why waste time releasing a ROM (~80MB) when you can release a flashable-zip (~10-15MB)?
Cheers.

I just asked what is your base rom because we not have official cyanogenmod support. If you use only the cm repo to build a complete rom, it will be really hard, due the missing device specific parts. So, the question again (I hope it is clear): you use only the cm repo as base OR use unofficial cm repo from nAa (with working device specific settings/codes) OR use prebuild cm7.1 rom from x8 OR use prebuild cm7.1 rom from other phone. All options is a cm7.1 rom, but all need different works.
From the best to the worst:
1. Use the minicm repo from nAa (nothing to do to get fully working rom)
2. Use prebuilt x8 rom as base (basically not need to do anything)
3. Use the official cm repo (need lot of work because missing a lot of thing)
4. Use any non x8 prebuilt rom (basically the hardest way, need large amount of work with hw related things)

We used to have official CM support till CM7.2 (I guess). It's stated in the CM Shakira page. And you can build CM7 from source as EET has explained in his tutorial. But in any case his best option (if he's going to compile from source) is to use MiniCM7 repo. It's the most updated one.
Plus it will support nAa-14 without any modifications.
The OP wrote this is cm7.1, not 7.2 As I know the official cm7 support is not complete, but my knowledge is NOT unlimited And we not have cm kernel.

I am using a prebuild x8 rom and modding it
And what is the original rom, what you use as base rom? If it is a stock kernel based rom, you need to change the drivers (sensors, gsl, egl, etc) to work with nAa kernels, if it is a minicm based rom, nothing need to do it will work with nAa kernel.

I think he got over that problem by now. LOL.
No man its not working.
See I will explain my question once more. I am using this rom as my base rom: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=stable&device=shakira
I want to make this rom compatible with custom kernels like nAa 14 and alfs etc so what should I do exactly?
If I have to change my drivers then please explain to me how to change my driver to these kernels and also tell me where to find the driver files in the rom and also tell me the download link for the drivers please.
I will be very grateful!
THANKS in advance. Please someone help me.
what is the best custom ROM option for x8 after GingerDX v031b ? i am hunting for it so many days ! help me out for deciding it !
This question is forbidden
Sent from my E15i using fapatalk 2
yeah! I'm looking for the exact same thing. The ROMs I've installed are very slow and buggy, may be there is something wrong with my device.
I don't really care about the animations and graphics but just need something fast, stable and above or same as 2.3.7 for sake of app compatibility.
I had exactly the same problem but then I've installed minicm7 . Ths rom maybe isn't the best but when you delete some trash, change launcher to launcher pro it's fast enough.
