Just transfer the nAa ROM into your SD card, flash the nAa kernel and when your phone boots up, open CWM and install the ROM.
i see now... if stuck on SE logo then i'll have to rein stall the rom again?
If You flash nAa kernel there won't be SE logo. It will be nAa logo And don't worry about stuck - there's a built-in recovery in nAa kernel, so even if You forgot to copy compatible ROM to SD card there's always an option to enable USB storage via CWM recovery. But make sure You have backup Your contacts / apps / messages etc before do anything.
oh....i never flashed kernel before...
after i unlocked bootloader then my phone hard bricked and sent to repair for 1 month+
after i get it back i checked whether the bootloader unlocked or not it surprisingly unlocked @@ and i was like
So now go ahead and install kernel and then ROM following the instructions and good luck.

well i read the forums but i didnt discover the same problem as me ...so again is the stock x8 rom not supposed to work after i flash the kenrel or am i doing something wrong?(ican get to cwm).MOreover,do i have to load the custom rom file first,then flash the kernel,then flash the loaded rom?
dude, flash nAa v10. after you flash it, the kernel logo will appear followed by the battery sign.
press power button, the phone will boot and the kernel logo will appear.
you will be sent do CWM Menu.
if you have a compatible ROM for nAa kernel, do a full wipe and reboot and see if the ROM boots successfully.
if you dont have a compatible ROM, do a full wipe, install CM 2.1.8 and then reboot.
U have to unlock bootloader first before flashing kernel,
this is the step (with stock kernel and rom installed and root) :
- unlock bootloader
- flash kernel
- enter cwm
- wipe data
- install custom rom
- wipe data again
- restart system
and ur good to go

You cant load stock rom with a custom kernel. Just flash GingerDx Rom and you should be fine. Flash the kernel first using the flash tool, then flash the rom using CWM and then turn on the phone

Here is a newbie guide to unlock the bootloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436924&page=2
After you unlocked BL you can flash the kernel with flashtool (with the latest one)
-Don't forget to copy you're rom to SDcard!
When the nAa logo appears hit the back button and you're in cmw menu.
full wipe->instal custom rom-> reboot your phone !
first flash your kernel and then install custom rom...
I flashed the latest official firmware...
Than after all my attempts i can't install any ROM, except official 2.1.
Please, write me instructions how to install CM7 - i need help...
I have rooted 2.1 with xRecovery - what's next?
Go to xrecrovery choose instal custom zip from sd card hoose zip from sd card find your mini cm 7 install rom and factory reset/full wipe.
It depends on ROM. Some of CM7 works only on custom kernels, so You should first check if You will be able to unlock bootloader. Look behind Your battery - on the stick there should be something like xxWyy which will tell You the year and the week of Your board. If it's older than 11W26 (26th week of 2011) - U may unlock bootloader and install custom kernel (on Your own risk ;P). If not - You shouldn't do this and search for ROMs working on SE stock kernel

Also, some ROM required CWM instead of Xrecovery, so read carefully before attempting anything.
Hmmmm
I unlocked bootloader long time ago(10WW48 on the sticker).
to przemek4113: Just installing from xrecovery gives me a unbooting phone.
I tried Froyo, but it doesn't boot too.
Then i'm flashing(Xrecovery doesn't give me a booting phone even if i recover all system) official 2.1.
This phone was bought with GinderDX on it. But latest versions need new kernels(flashing kernel bricks phone).
May be try Previous versions of GingerDX?
Really, i tried about seven customs...
P.S. I'm installing xrecovery ROM's from Xrecovery and CWM ROM's from CWM...

Mind to elaborate where you read that "latest versions need new kernels"?
GingerDX runs on STOCK KERNEL, LinuxDX as well as Alfs. I fail to find the part in doixanh's post where it says something about forcing a certain kernel to be used.
Make sure you have an older x8 than 11w29, its under the battery. When the number is 11w29 or newer, you'll not get CM. Unlock your bootloader.
Download and flash FXP kernel. Install official CM with the kernel built-in CWM. I recommend to flash nAa kernel after install the CM, it's much better.

If you want CM7 you should go to this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362585
That's my fault - i was speaking about another ROM. Not GingerDX - but it doesn't boot too.
I followed advise about miniCM7.
Flashed kernel ->then wiped all(i disliked the message about ext4 - there's no this partition - probably that's the problem???) ->installed ROM. Nothing.
"nAa kernel" logo appears and then it reboots.
UPD:
I've installed GingerXperia(v19) via CWM.
Then -
I've flashed all kernel,fota and smth else(not all files from 2.1.1).
Then it booted...strange)
But i'll try to work with other kernels...

Flash Tool - I've seen links on it thousand times on 4pda.ru, but not here - i suppose it to be in the branch about X10.
http://www.mediafire.com/?z7fmpiragbbdxdu - here is flasher.
http://depositfiles.com/files/c2gllgt6t - or here, with official firmware
It would be great if somebody could provide the step by step procedure of flashing my w8 to get past the se logo....
1)Download all archives above
2)Run flasher
3)Press "Flash" and choose necessary firmware
4)follow advices of software
5)reboot -> You have official 2.1
then
1)check your bootloader(http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/1227710/S1tool.7z) with this tool
2)unlock it if it is able for you
3)take root(superoneclick with debugging)
4)make xrecovery
5)install any xrecovery zip
or
alt 5)make CWM
alt 6)install any CWM zip
or
install kernel
then install zip
Firstly try it from xrecovery. If you have some problems - write PM to me)
I have done it and successfully flashed as per flashtool...but now even i cant boot stuck at "sony ericsson" now the animated logo works and reboots automatically...pls help
Have you done "user-wipe" in Flash Tool???

X8 ....After unlocking bootloader it went out of SIM signal....imanage to solve this problem.
But i have a mayor problem: I`ve tried to install GingerDx, PrimeHD, MiniCM9, on Sock and Custom Kernels and it always stuks at booting.
Before unlocking bootloader stock kernel ROMs were runnig all right, even PrimeHD 7.0 with nAa 11 worked but not anymore.
Anyone knows what is happening, should i relock and unlock it again?

Yes...full wipe= Done...but doesn`t work after full wipping.
well are you sure you have unlocked your bootloader?
re-check with s1tool...if it's unlocked then with flashtool go back to stock rom,kernel(android 2.1) and then root it again install recovery and then first try to install some other rom for stock kernel and then install custom kernel and then custom ROM
Pay attention on your ftf kernel files...i accidently downlaoded U20 nAa kernel instead of x8 nAa kernel...and guest what-->that kernel didn't work so whatch out for which phone is ftf kernel file
i hope i helped

can you make a video and show us your problem?
I finally solve it!!!
Idon`t know how but i repeat the same procedure time after time and i can finally instal GingerDx v025 in Stock kernel.
Thanks to everyone that helped me!!!
Hello everyone I have a problem I do not understand how to install the kernel on my x8 naa ics with stock rom and bootloader unlocked. I have to flash the kernel of the first stock rom and install minicm9, I fear to brick the phone.
sorry for my english
Flash kernel first and at boot enter recovery and flash the ROM.
Sent from my X8 to your screen
Flash kernel, enter recovery, then flash the ROM and GApps.
Then full wipe and wipe cache and dalvik cache. Then, reboot.

just for sharing..if you bricked your phone, you can flash the X8 generic.ftf kernel
you can search on google or 4shared.. i.e : X8_Shakira_E15i_2.1.1.A.0.6_generic.ftf
hope it can help
Ok guys Ive just got this phone today and its amazing. However for, uncontentment of its original features I came here.
Ive done Rooting, Sunbox, Recovery, Unlock Bootloader but havent installed my first ROM and kernel.
I have seen a lot of versions of Kernel & ROMS here but what is the latest working ROM & Kernel version that I am going to install? please indicate the link.
Thank you!
For beginners i can tell this: MiniCM + kernel NAa GB 14

Just yester day when I try to install this ROM > GingerZaraki | V08 and its required Kernel alfs v08a/v09a CM7 | 30-8-2012 or version 8a(recommended)...
Here is my procedure but my phone stops at "Sony Ericson" when bootup.!
1. Ive flash the kernel using s1tool using the .ftf file. It seems to be working in this part.
2. Now Ive go to recovery mode, Full wipe, cache wipre, etc.
2. Run the custom zip update of GingerZaraki | V08, waited....until its done flashing!
3. restart phone, and then..........hangs-up with this "Sony Ericson"..(Ive rescue the cp using SEUS, and thanks it works again, but havent successful yet installing custom ROM an Kernel)
??? Did i missed some procedure during flashing? Will it conflict with the sunbox? Do I need to install sunbox before flashing Kernel or Rom? or just a corrupt installation of ROM?
Thank you for helping.
You didn't flash the kernel because alfs didn't have Sony Ericsson screen. Try revert to stock then start again from beginning, remember don't miss any step.
