[Q] Froyo or Gingerbread? - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I have a big question, as between froyo and gingerbread there is no difference which version I wanted to know more should be that I have a stock kernel with X8 and now I find the stock rom with some improvements: P
Well, what matters is faster a ROM Froyo or a ROM Gingerbread?

Not really. We have almost fully working CM6 Roms and because Froyo is lightweight, it operates better in our phone than Gingerbread.

So gingerbred have more features than froyo.I prefer GingerDX v26 or MiniCM7 2.2.0

Froyo: Stable, faster and batteryfriendlyer than Gingerbread but not all Features.
Gingerbread: High Customisation and fast. Sometimes bugs

So wifi hotspot will work just on gingerbread?
-=PrimeHD=-8-=Alfs Kernel=-

Then I will try froyobread, provided that can be passed apps to SD (Can be with froyo?) Is sufficient reason, since being in the stock ROM only thing strange is that, and the app2sd is not a good choice for I.

Donout (1.6) please forgot it, its old and incompatible woth tweaks and with a lot apps
Eclair (2.1) use it if you want, but it has less features than Froyo
Froyo (2.2) - Developers had more time to upgrade it, so it can be better (cause started before gb)
Gingerbread (2.3.0-2.3.7) - it has better custamization than froyo, and has more tweaks to it (for ex. Adreno libs)
Honeycomb - (3.0) it isnt for phones, its only for tablets
Ice Cream Sandwich - (4.0.0-4.0.4)
Wait for it! Sign the petitions to get a fully working system of ICS
So
Older - Faster, Less Compatible with apps, has less tweaks, less customization, better battery life (1.0-2.2)
Gingerbread - Bit slower, Most apps are compatible, has more tweaks, more customization, less battery life (2.3-2.3.7)
Newer - A lot slower, Some apps are not compatible yet (~50%), have only a few tweaks, BEST customization, Battetylife is as GB's (3.0-4.0.4)
I preffer GB now
PrimeHD 8.0
Hope i helped
If you want to give me the first thanks in my life, do it

[Poll] GingerDX VS Froyobread

Which is better?

Both were AWESOME!
But,
FroyoBread = CM6
GingerDX = CM7
CM6 VS CM7 = CM7 Wins
But,
CM7 is still under development.
CM6 is complete.
So,
For ME, For NOW, FroyoBread.
In my opinion GingerDX is better, because it has better performance than Froyobread
Until the sensitivity issues in GingerDX are solved, I'll be sticking with Froyobread. I need to be able to type or else I feel like throwing my phone at a wall.
froyobread is better but one things camera quality is not so good on it
so i insist to use GDX
some one cane port cameraserive.so (lib) file to froyobread ?
i m waiting for this then i will stick to fb
Froyobread is better for use, i haven't tested GingerDx but have a fair idea that it is better than Froyobread, But till then Froyobread is the king rom for me, I love froyobread.
Froyobread in my case. Most stable rom ever. I've tested GingerDx and all it caused me was headaches, but that may just be me. Like someone mentioned Froyobread (CM6) complete and therefore stable, and GingerDx (CM7 - underdevelopment). So currently I'm sticking with Froyobread
Gingerdx for so many reasons...

Yes, and the accelerometer bug is already solved, search for the fix.
In GDX i have battery drain problem.Wifi,accelerometer have fixes...but battery not.From this point of view, froyobread is better in my oppinion.If i could stop battery drain i would use GDX.It's something strange We are using same hardware and some people have,some not having this problem.Why?
GDX up to v12. Then are too many FCs and bugs.
froyobread is better,bcoz doesnt have battery drain problem.

Strange.I don't have battery drain anymore.I installed froyobread v23b over gingerdx V 14(Full wipe-install froyobread-full wipe),use my phone for 2 days whitout any problems.After that i installed GDX v16+fixes .
Full wipe-install gdx-full wipe and the problem dissapear.
I think installing froyo was helping me alot
GingerDX still under develop. Froyobread already final.
But when i try froyobread, my device always auto reboot. i dont know why.

gingercruzt or gingerxperia

Which of these is the fastest? i have tried gingerdx but i installed gingerxperia and it is faster, so, is gingercruzt faster then gingerxperia? thanks.
well the latest gingerdx 015 is very fast ,, so is v014,, but amongst those two roms gingercruzt is better for me,, however neither has as much features or a huge community of people using gdx,,,
ps: you need to tweak gdx a bit to make it fast,, Mini cm7 is also an amazing rom,,, you can try it,,

my problem is the ram, it used to get very low on gingerdx, now its much better in gingerxperia, but i dont know about gingercruzt.
well you can advanced task killer for freeing up ram... and gingercruzt is better than gingerxperia,,,
i think the first version of FD Experience is the best ROM that i've used so far... its very stable and fast... also a good battery life!
gingercruzt faster...free ram i get now 90MB
Gingercrutz is awesome maybe even better than gingerdx, but there some bugs that annoying me, like arc launcher sometimes is so slow and autobrightness is not working at all, there is some other bugs which i cant remember right now, but at the end i think that this is maybe the best custom rom for x8 at this time
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
hi
GingerDX v15 is best rom for me
because GDX is very fast and smooth.
and GingerXperia is very faster than gingercruzt.
FD Xperience
FD Xperience is the best ROM compare to any other gingerbread ROM, best ROM so far!!!!

[Q] Ginger DX or Ginger Xperia

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!

yes..my brother use GXP with stock kernel..but i like GDX
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

[Q] Which rom is the stablest and fastest? 2.2 or 2.3 is better

Hi, this is my first post.
I'm currently using gingerxperience. This is a beautiful rom. However,it is a bit unstable. I want to ask that which android rom is better running on x8. Is 2.2 better than 2.3? Can you suggest some 2.2 rom or 2.3 rom? I'm sorry with my poor English.
GingerDX and miniCM7 are both good and a stable ROM in my opinion. And using SWAP and overclocking your phone is a good method to create higher performance and make a smoother phone.

Desde Chile con amor.
most stable ROM i experienced is GingerCM v10 with ALFS v7 ICS/v8 [trust me its awesome]
now im using GingerDX v23 its very very good! and got a sneak peak at v24 alpha3 used it for a couple of days .. its not finished yet but its so much more smoother!!
I think the 2.2 is better than the others
