[Q] Installing BusyBox for SuperCharger (alfs v8a, GDX v29).? - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
Can i install this busybox from Play store in order to use supercharger on GDX v29? Im not sure about this, because i heard that 'updating busybox might soft-brick our phone'.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=pl
Thanks in advance!

I suggest you not to install busybox.
I dont exactly know where i was mistaken but i bricked my phone twice in an attempt to install the busybox.
And by brick here i mean HARD BRICK........

no... busybox link is given in the supercharger thread...download from there

I've tried to use the script from supercharger thread, but it doesn't work for me, that's why i'd like to download it from Play Store, but i dont know if it won't brick my phone

Don't update the busybox, because it will cause soft brick on custom roms and stock kernel. It succeeds on the stock rom though.

Only the attempt to unlock the bootloader by the free method on new devices can cause hard brick... Busybox updater app from google play won't try to unlock the bootloader :silly:

So that means i can't apply supercharger? Huh, i've applied it on my previous rom and i didn't brick anything. Lol, now i have no idea how i managed to make it, lol
Is there anyone who have installed supercharger on GDX v29 and know how to do it?

here you go..download and enjoy

Thank you very much, but could you tell me what does the zip exactly contain and what does it do? Does it install busybox?
And it's a flashable zip, right?
Cheers

Well, I don't use overclock, so I can't say anything from that.
But I think that gingerdx don't really needs that v6 script... Have tried since other modes (including agressive ones) and haven't really encountered problems, instability, but it is deffinetley not better, than the "stock" dx...

It's in the x8 dev forum lagginess thread. Yes, it works and so does kickass with io tweaks.

Me too...I brick my phone after using it. Luckily i follow this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11934117&postcount=7) to solve the problem...^^
I think gingerdx already good enough, there is no need to use supercharger. I used fast reboot, OC and latest gingerdx(V10) and everything work well..^^
Thanks to doixanh..!!!
For me has run fine on dx 010 and 012, the only problem is that values doesn't stick.
...
i think that GDX dont need this script

Help idiot to installing costum rom on xperia x8

Ok I must say that I am idiot .... I soft bricked my phone like 5 times and now with my default kernel (flashed it) ... I have a huge battery problem and link2sd crashing problem ...
I have SE xperia x8 11w22 ...
I've been trying for 2 days to install GINGERXD on my phone ... I don't know why I can't do it ...
I installed cyanogenmod on my htc tattoo in like 2 hours with no problem .. but x8 gives me a lot of trouble ...
Right now I have default kernel on my phone ... rooted with flashtool and I have some FREEXPERIA RECOVERY... superuser app icon is android robots head with the pirate thing on his eye ...
one more thing .. how can I replace my current recovery with the clockwork one
PLEASE HELP ME WITH FULL GUIDE HOW TO DO THIS THING ( I don't want to screw up my phone :/ )!!!!!!!!
edit: I do not want to unlock bootloader ... I am scared of getting my phone hard bricked .. so if I can't install gingerxd without unlocking bootloader, please reccomend me some other good rom based on cyanogenmod that can work without unlocking bootloader
Well,you are not an idiot because you can't flash a rom!!! Calm down and everything will be fine
Did you full wipe/factory reset before installation of the rom?
For the battery problem try "wipe battery stats"

Op, what version of gdx are you trying to flash? Better use cwm, and do a full wipe BEFORE flashing the rom. Just search xda for the tut on how to install cwm on your x8.
Btw, gdx can run on stock kernel, so there is no need for you to unlock your bl. But out of curiousity, what's the maufacturing date of your phone?

I don't remember ..I've tried so many thing ...
what I am gonna do right now is:
1. flash my phone to default again (with flashtool, but I won't root and install recovery in flashtool)
2. root phone with superoneclick (or that';s not the right way ? )
3. install cwm recovery ( I will search on xda for tut.)
4. put rom on sd
5. wipe factory data
5. install rom via cwm
that's it... I mean is that the way it should be done ? I'm kinda really nervous .. only thing I don't want is hard brick on my phone ...

Ok ..., I rooted my phone successfully and installed busybox but I don't know how to install cwm ... there are like 50 ways just on forum ... what is the safest way to do it ?
Every way is safe if you follow instructions.
If you are experienced user with moving things around your system,do it manual,if you want the most simple way do it with x8toolbox.

changing frequency of cpu.600MHz is default but you can overclock to 768/806MHz and your phone(cpu) will be faster

It's used like in any phone. Download the modded services.jar and replace it, download the script and run it with su permission, either through ScriptManager from Play Store or through Terminal Emulator. But I don't think it's of any use.
Oh, and you have to be rooted to use it.

Titanium backup use its own busybox.
Busybox is series of linux (standart UNIX) terminal commands made to work for android
so if an app shows this and you dont have busybox installed you should install it or if you have it update it
