Hello,
I use gingerDX v13 on my X8 phone.
When i reboot, i now have allways the choise for rebooting, xrecovery and clockworkmod.
I was using xrevovery before, and i don't know if it's better to stick with it, or that i should use clockworkmod.
I did some reading, but didn't found any straight comparision...
What is your opinions?
tx!
They're both important. To install gingerdx v013 and below, u can only use xrecovery. Bt starting from v14 and above, daioxanh says u need to use clockwork mod
Sent from my X8 running on GingerDX via XDA APP
both Xrecovery and clockwork mod have different update script,thats just what i know..
You need em both, and for things like full wipe or cache wipe there's no difference in which one u use...

Hi guys, can you show your step to upgrade x8?
Because I don't know whether my step is correct or not.
Thanks guys!
My step as following...
1.Root
2.install busybox
3.install xrecovery
4.unlock bootloader
-check with s1tools
-run msm7227_semc.cmd with debugging
5.flash kernel with flash tools
6.flash GingerDX v013
7.flash GingerDX v025
any miss step?
Dude i think superoneclick will install busy box by itself and if you unlock your bootloader after root and flash new kernel then you don't need to install x recovery just flash the rom.
Press thanks if i helped

The steps are good that way, but you can do the following :
Instaid of intalling x recovery..bla bla and gdx v13 and then v25, you can install cwm ..bla bla...and there is no need for v13 you can just Install v25

Look...
I DO NOT troll people with talk of MiniCM9.
Especially not a beginner.
I do use MiniCM9 as my primary rom, but choices are choices and if one wants help on how to peel apples, don't give help on how to peel oranges.

First of all, go to Settings > info and check if your baseband ends with 015. If not, update with PC Companion.

It's a adb type software which you have to install on your computer.
Using this you can root , flash CWM/xRecovery etc on your X8 just by connecting it with your PC.

Why install ver 13 and 25? Just install ver 26 and alfs GDX kernel and ur good to go
Do you read any post before you post?....facepalm
I don't think he has any problem now, as long as he didn't tell us anything more.....

EDIT: Found an answer elsewhere. Sorry again.
New guy here
Sorry for reviving this but would I be ok if I upgraded from v19 to v026 without any further steps. Or would a clean install be better?
I want to use the xperia S launcher on Gingerdx v29 i tried to get the launcher from system/apps from a few custom roms which have the launcher but they don't seem to work. Can someone please tell me how to get it on GingerDX v29, thanks

So today i'm trying to download GingerDX it seems too most famous ROM on xperia x8 ever. I just wanna know which version is better with less bug V31 or down.
I am using V31b for STOCK KERNEL and I haven't find any bugs so far
If you have your bootloader unlocked install v31b for custom kernel
Try GingerDX V31b with nAa-kernel.The latest the better ;D

V31b is pretty bug free (I'm using stock kernel)
YEAH! use latest version Ginger DX and don't use with JIMDEM Tweaks! i got bootloop when i tried to install Jimdem Tweaks in
latest version of Ginger DX several times.
maybe JIMDEM Tweaks not compatible with the latest version of Ginger DX.
