When you are in stock rom there isn't reboot to cwm
You have to press the back button while you are in sony ericsson logo
If this don't help reinstall cwm with the same way.

Hi. I've Xperia X8 : Rooted, downloaded rom (miniCM7 2.0.7) and all this in CWM.
I tried to install GingerDX but you know GingerDX need xRecovery not CWM so i searched to install xRecovery then I found this apk app( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1128854 ) i installed it and installed xRecovery and everything ok BUT when i rebooted my phone my phone stuck in the Boot screen (Sony Ericsson) and nothing new! HELPP PLEASEthxxxx all
Umm, maybe you can try repairing with PCC or SEUS.
Can you still get to xrecovery?
If yes, you can restore a backup with it.
If not, then flash the stock ROM again with Flashtool/SEUS/PCC
And the next time you want to install GingerDx, install the Dual Mode Recovery, it´s very easy, just search for it.
mmm
Well, i wanted xRecovery, but now im scared i want to find a good tutorial on the forum but i dont know, can someone recommend me one that is good for my xperia x8

I know you're problem! Some roms will disable recovery (for example: ICS for stock)
To fix this, Download X8Toolbox:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117100
You will need to have the drivers for your X8 Phone (download on sony's website)
You can install them through device manger!
Now open x8 toolbox, and install a recovery. You can choose
Good luck! after the installation your phone should be able to go to recovery!
I'm new to XDA!
Please press the "thanks" button if i helped!
it really helped
i want to know what stock kernel mean and how i can make latest kernel to my phone to install new ROM avoiding soft brick
???
i don't know waht stock kernel mean but i know how to install custom kernel
you will need flashtool and kernel that you want to installl
move kernel in firmwares in flastool folder
tha n run flashtool and turn off phone
go to flash and choose your kernel than press ok and connect you phone with pc in flash mode tha nafter the procces is done turn on phone and press back button until you go into xrecovery or CWM....
then flash to ROM
remember to do a full wipe
or in case of installing alfs kernel
flash latest version and install update adreno libs and other stuff unless it won't work ok...
press thanks if i helped

I think you are confused...
Take it from the start, its not necessary that you have brick when you install custom rom with stock kernel. If you have stock kernel you will search for roms which are for stock kernel..as simple as that...if you want to install custom kernel you have to unlock bootloader which is very risky and can't be done to all x8. If you want to check it take off your battery, there will be a code on your phone( no the one on battery) if it is under 11w29 then congrats you are from the lucky one that can unlock bootloader.
*stock kernel mean the original kernel that the phone have when you buy it

I have tried to flash arco's recovery to install ICS but it shows the main menu ( reboot, install zop, wipe, etc) and I can't enter in any of the setting, trying to do a backup before installing ics. I flashed it via FeaMod with zip version, and recovery.img from wiki via SGS+ quick flasher. Both said success but the problem is the same. When clicking menu button or power all text is hidden and backgound image is brigther. What I'm doing wrong ?
Feamod use option to enter into menu
Arco's CWM only home button

i have installed custom rom andro-id rc3
which mobile do i need to choose in CMW v 5 ??
My device is spice mi410
please help!
please help guys!!!
Please clarify more
when in cmw
1. press backup currrent rom
2. it says you must have clockworkmod recovery installed before continuing
3. press install
4. it says confirm phone model --- options are like commtiva z71, dell streak, huawei ascend, etc.
5. ders no option for spice mi410 or its variants
6. which phone should i choose?
This is probably the ROM Manager app that you have installed from Android market... This is not the CWM recovery... it's just an app from the same dev... Read to use CWM recovery in the dev section...the Andro-id-RC-3 is already rooted and has CWM recovery installed.. To access CWM turn you phone off and then while holding down the volume up and fire buttons together, press the power button...

follow the thread to install clockworkmod.
If u dont have Xrecovery i've attached one for u.
Extract the rar and u'll find 3 files.
Using Root Explorer place the 3 files in /system/bin/...dont forget to change the permissions to r/w
boot into xrecovery by pressing the back key while on the sony Ericsson logo and flash cwm recovery.
But I already have xrecovery.. and my phone version 2.2 now, but don't have clock workmod..

I search but still don't understand need more detail... please..
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
x8toolbox
then just follow the thread and download the req. cwm recovery and install it using xrecovery!
If you are having xRecovery, flash "Amend" package
So that means place the attachment in the sdcard..
switch off ur phone and boot into xrecovery...then select "install zip from sdcard"
select CWM-recovery-3.2.0.0-r3-e15-Amend.zip and flash it!
thats it.
And than what should I continue to do?

Cause now I am stand for mini cm 6 version 2.2.

the method i follow usually is I flash the GingerDX v14 using xRecovery.
This way after flashing the rom i have both xrecovery and cwm.
Maybe u can do the same to flash cwm and then flash watever rom u wish to install using cwm.
This is the easiest method and brick proof.
I've done this several times before.
So it mean if I flash cwd already, I must flash other room, do like this I can't brick my phone?
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
there is no problem if u flash other rom from minicm 2.2..u wont brick ur device....and there is no need to flash any other rom after flashing cwm its upto u. the recovery will work just fine!
So just flash cwd.zip normal ?? Ok... i try now if successful I will come here to say " IT WORK " . but if not see u tomorrow...
