11W33 vs unlocking bootloader - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey!!
I'm new on this forum. So I have rooted X8 (E15i) with 11W33 and I have GingerDX, but its slowly. I want to unlock bootloader for greater performance, but I read that bootloader unlock can permanently damage the phone. I search for safe roads to unlock phone, or better ROM for stock kernel. This phone Is my first with Android, so please understand me.

Dont try to unlock you wll brick ur phone. only below 11w29 its safe, above its playing with your luck:fingers-crossed:.
just try some stock kernel roms and find what suit you. i think dx is very good just update it or delete some unwanted apps that slow it down
if you want to check this support stock kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1237930
if you want to stay with dx you can speed it up by overclock it with this module that u can find it in his thread
(GingerDX Overclock Module (x8oc.ko v004) ) but dont set very high frequences.

thats not true
check this forum : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506502
u can now unlock the bootloader above11w29+.

It is still 50-50% chance for 11w29-11w34 and above that through you're phone after trying it, only if you're very lucky you can have it work on 11w35+..

You can try, but there is a big chance that you end up with a hardbrick.

I dont want any chance to brick my phone. I tryed GingerDX + OC to 768 and governor performance but it's slowier than Stock rom. I downloaded unofficial MIUM rom and its quite faster, but still this is not good rom, i have only 20MB free ram, when i kill all apps.

It's a shame for your mobile to ruin for a risk .... I tried it and the particular Rom and I was not at all pleased

counter strike's miui isnt finished yet.

and if you are really upto gb rom
use supercharger(ultraram settings).

[Q] Fastest rom (+battery saving)?

What is the fastest rom for X8 with stock kernel? Should also be battery saving and not ram consuming, but most important: FAST
I dont need a very good looking rom with fancy widgets and lots of functions or setting, just fast and battery saving

Thanks, i'll flash primehd tomorrow as you wrote: "there is going to be v5.4 for all kernels, I will finish up my last checkings and upload the files tomorrow."
So i dont have to flash 5.3 today and 5.4 tomorrow
Just to be sure....i just have to boot into cwm, do a full wipe and install primehds53 (or tomorrow primehds54) and then reboot and let it boot into primehd?
I'm asking this because there is a hotfix file too and somewhere i read that i have to install google apps and i dont know if the hotfix file is ment or not?!
thanks in advance........i'm really looking forward to using primehd

How to start from "zero"?

Hello, I'm kinda newbie at this...
I have an Xperia X8 e15a with manufacturing date 11W11 @ stock kernel, running with GDX v026.
but lately I've noticed that my phone is too slow... even when I get incoming calls, its hard to slide the bar and answer them, so I want to know how can I speed up my phone. I'm thinking of changing the ROM to PrimeHD or other ROM that is faster.
I also think of the possibility of changing to a custom kernel but I'm afraid of bricking it because I remember this phone was from X company and I entered a code on internet and now it works for Y company, so I don't know if thats a real SIM unlock (bootloader unlocking says the phone must be sim unlocked). Oh... and I wonder if I could make a swap partition... I don't really know how to do it, I've just made them on my PC so I'm not sure if I can do it on my phone.
I feel like my phone is messy... I've seen 2 kinds of recovery tools and I just wanna have one (CWM and xRecovery). Does full wipe delete them? I would like to go back to the very begginig (without unrooting lol) and then change everything from the start :S.
Thanks.
PD: long story short:
What ROM is fast?
how can I make a swap partition?
can I unlock the bootloader to have a custom kernel? (having in mind that I introduced a code online to "unlock" my SIM)

1st check with s1too is you have sim lock certificate(if yes, you can unlock your bl)
2 you can try yourself there is no perfect rom for everbody
You need a partition on your sd for use swap

I just unlocked my phone...
Well I know there's no perfect ROM for everybody, but I'm just asking for some recomendations on fast ROMs... :B
is PrimeHD fast? is any other ROM faster than GDX?
And about the swap partition... is there any requirements? I remember I wanted to do it back then but I don't remember why I didn't xD
thanks
If you've already unlocked bl, switch kernels. That would help a lot.

Unlocked bootloader ? Flash Alfs kernel for cm7 and then flash the rom GingerZaraki..
buttery smooth.
I'm running aAa kernel and PrimeHD and it's very well for now
I will try that combination too, thanks
pd: would a swap partition actually help? is it recomendable?
for smooth rom u just need custom kernel

IMO you don't need swap at all for GB.
Still if you want to, use it with a class 6 or 10 sdcard
Need help installing Recovery on Stock kernel
Hello All,
I was using CyanogenMod7 @ FXP kernel and had reverted back to Stock Kernel + Rom. Now I just want to try Custom ROMS over STOCK Kernel but couldn't find a way to install CWM on Stock Kernel for my W8 Device.
I want to use FDE 4+, but that too requires CWM to be installed over Stock Kernel, and I seriously don't know how to do this.
Someone please provide me a link/tutorial/guide to do the same.

Maybe you should give GDX another try, now that you have unlocked your bootloader. I used to use GDX with stock kernel, but like 14days ago I unlocked my bootloader and flashed ALFS kernel for GDX and now the ROM is like it never was before, super smooth and fast.

[Q] Is it safe to unlock bootloader from a custom Rom?

Hi, I am a NooB and I'm really sorry if this is the wrong section.
I recently upgraded from Eclair to GingerXperia Revolution v1 and I must say I quite like this ROM.
It was very fast when clean installed it has slowed down after a while,but still I would keep this Rom but there are issues with tethering and wifi hotspots which are crucial to me.It probably is the best rom for stock kernel, but maybe it's time for me to change my kernel and try some of the better roms. No need to post step by step manual as how to do it as I found it on xda already (thanks good people fom here)
Ok
My specs:
Xperia x8
E15i shakira
Band xxx015
11w01 (i know how cool is that lol)
GingerXperia Revolution Rom (installed via rooting/xrecovery)
26.2.9. Kernel (im noob so I dont know if this is stock kernel or custom,please explain)
*Now is it safe to attempt to unlock bootloader from those specs? or do I need to do it from Eclair 2.1 (which would be extra hassle)
*Or is it even worth it? I want to put on miniCM7 so for that I'll need nAa kernel I think.
*Will my current rom run when I change to kernel to nAa?
*Is there a way to speed up my x8? Like I heard that you can partition your sd card and allocate some as internal memory,is that true? If yez wouldnt that help greatly?
Thank you everyone for your time.
Do it from eclair. It's safer. And performance-wise, you will see a change in performance using a custom kernel.
After changing kernels and rom, let's talk tweaks. I'm not one for swapping though, but it does seem to boost performance from all i've read.

Help Choosing Custom Rom

Hi, for the first time I'm planning to install a custom rom so infact I'm doing this only because of native app2sd support:fingers-crossed: but to be honest I want a full compatible custom rom which should support and run most applications from market and performance should be good just like the stock 2.1 if not better... and if possible then camera and all other major functions should be working in it without any bugs.
That's all I ask .. currently I'm thinking about :
cyanogenmod
GingerDX
GingerZaraki
but I don't know which one is better Don't really want to unlock bootloader / kernels unless really necessary..
Thanks in advance.

Unlocking bootloader & installing a custom kernel is highly recommended ( if u don't know how to unlock & required build date DON'T TRY IT)
Best rom for stock is Gingerdx (my opinion) very stable, smooth.
Camera, etc works fine & without bugs.
Native app2sd is also supported

If you can unlock bootloader:
Minicm7 is a good choice for day to day use,gaming.interface doesn't look pretty
iXperia 8s v1.9.0 is a perfect rom for gaming, high multitasking, much free ram, iPhone look you may like or hate it also fmradio doesn't work on this rom (& some other known bugs)
Minicm9 is quite stable (comparing to minicm9) needs swap partition for better responsibility, around 20% slower than minicm7, most of gameloft games force close (because of android 4) ,perfect interface (I love it)
Minicm10 is for experiences of jellybean , forget gaming , not stable (still in nightly versions)
,perfect interface (better than Minicm9)
If you can't unlock :
Gingedx & froyopro are perfect,very stable & smooth

You need an unlocked bootloader in order to play temple run(needs swap to extend RAM & better 3D performance)

But miniCM 7,9 need bootloader unlock...intall ...?
Does it has something to do with kernal..?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you can install gdx on lock bootloader
but....(gdx for stock)
for the best result.use custom kernel.try to unlock your bootloader.since your on 11w17.
now you can use gb (gdx) ,ics or jb.(cm7,9,10)
minimum edition
