[Q] How to change GingerDx WiFi driver... - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Alfs 08-cm7 is new and for "standard" cm7 roms with tiwlan(wifi driver)
So yeah does anyone know how to change WiFi driver? I`m asking this cuz my phones WiFi doesn`t work very good with GDX WiFi driver and with alfs for GDX
I would like to use GDX with alfs for CM7 and tiwlan(wifi driver)... I don't want to beleve that I'm alone with this problem.

dude...they're the same...just the wifi drivers differ...if it didn't work on that kernel, i doubt changing all the drivers will change anything

The same? If u use gdx with alfs for cm7 kernel u get WiFi error cus of WiFi driver.

then use alfs kernel for gingerdx... not CM7 version, no other way i know at least

I was talking that my phones WiFi don't work with non cm7 roms very good so why would I use gdx with alfs for gdx?

[Q] Kernel

Hi there. For first sorry for my english, 'cause it sucks.. I have installed GingedDX on my Xperia x8 and I have a question about kernel. Do I can install custom kernel? Or do I need it? If yes, what is the best kernel in your opinion? Thanks for reply.
GingerDX supports 3 kernels: SE stock, LinuxDX and Alfs for GingerDX. 1st and 2nd won't allow You to OC Your CPU. Only Alfs has this feature. On the other hand - if You're not OC fan, than You should try LinuxDX, cause it was created by doixanh [He creates GingerDX as well].
But all of Your doubts may go away if U won't be able to unlock Your bootloader. If this happen - You will be able to use only stock SE kernel
Ok, my phone can have custom kernel. But is it worth it? I think that Alfs for GingerDX + GingerDX should work great. I want OC a bit my phone's processor, because my phone lags very often.. Should it work better than now?
I tried a combination of stock kernel + GingerDX and Alfs + GingerDx. For me the 2nd one gave a boost to my x8, so in Your case it would be probably the same
Stock kernel + GingerDX and Alfs + GingerDx? You mean 2 kernels? And sorry I can't understand this: For me the 2nd one gave a boost to my x8.
My english is weak, sorry Did you mean "jeden z dwóch"?
I tried both combinations - GingerDx + stock kernel, then I flashed ALFS and was using it with GingerDX
Polish: Próbowałem obu kombinacji - GingerDx + stock oraz ALFS + GingerDX. Jak dla mnie drugie połączenie przyspiesza działanie telefonu
Ah, okay, now I understand Okay, thanks then. I will try
@EDIT
My phone is dead now :/ I have unlocked bootloader, I've got message that everything is done. Reboot and phone doesn't work.. Crap :/
dude.. English doesnt Suck.. probably your grammer might . And there are custom kernels like Alfs and nAa, which you can install at your own risk.. Search the forums for further info...

You can't overlock your CPU on stock? So how am I doing it then?

On ALFS kernel this feature is built-in. On LinuxDX or stock U have to use modules or other stuff.
linuxDx neither with modules..only stock kernel with modules and alfs with built in, you can overclock..flash alfs if you like or dislike oc..if you don't like you don't need to use the oc..so, the best kernel for gingerDx is ALFS KERNEL
sorry my bad english
stock kernel can oc too, use module.

[Q] WiFi stucks after 2 minutes

Do u really say that i`m the only people in the hole world who`s phones WiFi just dont work with GingerDx and Alfs for Gdx kernel? Okei actualy it didn`t work with stock rom and stock kernel too, but it works very well with MiniCm7 and nAa kernel. Under dont work i mean its not error, just i can use wifi like very little time with stock and alfs for gdx kernel. Lets say ur watching a video from youtube and u can watch it like 2 minutes and then WiFi stucks turn it off and on again and then works again for 2 minutes.
Any ideas?
And plz dont just say, use MiniCm7 and nAa. GingerDx is freakin good rom but for me just the WiFi thing.

Reinstall your ROM and do a full wipe..
maybe it can help you
Omg, no. I have used like many many roms that run on Alfs for Gdx or stock and everytime this problem. All roms that run nAa 11 or Alfs for Cm7 or nAa ICS 01 and 02 Wifi works like it should be working. I have noticed that with stock and Alfs for Gdx kernel WiFi is very slow. Like why would anybody want to use these kernels?

08-GDX is for GingerDX or roms for old 07-ICS
08-cm7 is new and for "standard" cm7 roms with tiwlan(wifi driver)
But still, when somebody answers my question? Or says that he/she has the same problem? I cant be the onlyone
I was having the same problem, on ofw wifi was great, on minicm7 it was stuck after 2 mins, now Im on minicm9 and its perfect again

[Q] Port GingerDX v26 to Alfs for Cm7 kernel

So yeah, can anybody give me a push where to start or what to do to make GingerDX work on Alfs for Cm7 kernel. I mean it works but WiFi gets error. Dont tell me to use Alfs for GDX. I dont use Alfs for GDX and stock kernel cuz my phones wifi dont work with those kernels. Its not error but when downloading something WiFi just stucks after downloading maybe 5mb.
Minu teada peab Gingerbread rom-iga kasutama ka GDX kernelit muidu ei hakkagi wifi korralikult tööle.Kui ise veel GingerDX-i kasutasin ja erinevaid kerneleid proovisin siis mul oli ka Alf CM 7 kerneliga wifi erroris aga kui panin Alfs GDX-i oli kõik korras.Ma sain aru jah et sul ta kuidagi töötab aga selles point ongi.Aaaaaga ma ei saa aru kuidas sul GDX kerneliga wifi ei tööta?Mu jutust pole vist eriti kasu praegu....ma uurin asja ja siis ehk oskan midagi targemat öelda,ok?

Alfs kernel is generally for gingerDX.CM 7 roms are builded from hero sources what use wlan(.ko) for wifi but X8 uses tiwlian(.ko).Since the X8 have own sources most roms are build from them(so gingerDX too).Wifi just not work if you dont use kernel that fits rom(gingerDX or CM7).If it stucks at 5mb then your wifi isn't working correctly.Change rom if you want use Alfs CM7 kernel.More i cant say or suggest.

Actually GDX is built from hero sources. Its CM7 that's built from X8 sources.

Ok,but gingerDX needs Alfs for GDX kernel,right?Otherwise wifi is not working in X8.

Try GingerDX + LinuxDX kernel

GingerDx V29 + NAA 14 problem.........

why i use Gingerdx v29 + naa14 ........ the wifi cant use.........how to fix it ??
Try to reinstall the ROM with full wipe.
Ginger dx uses other wifi than other cm7 roms. It has the same wifi like stock eclair. nAa doesn't support that wifi driver so you must use alfs gdx or linuxDX. There is no way to run wifi on nAa14 and gingerDX.

Since v029, GingerDX supports nAa kernel. I'm running it now and wifi works fine on GingerDX.

Try flashing back to stock and flash GDX again. Follow the steps and good luck:good:
If still not working then check your router. If thats ok try other roms to see if wifi works. If wifi doesnt work then there could be something wrong with the phone(very unlikely to me)
