[Q] CWM OR Xrecovery ? , What to do in order to install GingerDX ?

Ok, so i have this ****ty SE \ My provider's ROM.
Really bad, the phone is so slow and takes like few minute to even turn on.
can't run games and everything lags. (including the launcher)
This means i need a better ROM.
I can't Have any Kernels Other then the stock one, because i can't unlock my Boot loader because my manufacturing date is :11w31 , so i will probably brick my phone if i will try.
Meaning i need a custom ROM that works with the Stock Kernel, Us i understand the best for daily use is GingerDX, as it is fast working and has a lot of features and it's based on CM7 (which i very much love , have it on my ARC).
So my questions are:
1.My Baseband is M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015, Do i need to install any SE ROM before i Root my phone ? If yes how do i do it ?
2.What is better , CWM OR Xrecovery ? (for GingerDX) (Can you allso link me to a guide) ?
3.Do i need to install GAPPS with GingerDX ? (Couldn't find any link in the thread)
Thanks in advance.

1. No
2. Version 013 and older is installing with xrecovery and version 014 and newer is installing with CWM Recovery ( ClockworkMod Recovery for Xperia X8 )
3. No
The baseband ends with 015, so you don´t have to install any other SE ROMs.
GDX can only be installed with CWM, at least the new ones, and you won´t need the old ones.
Have a look at the X8-FAQ and/or the X8 Toolbox, as this thread provides you the easiest method to get CWM and xrecovery, so you can have both ones.
And no, they are included, but I´d suggest you to install EVERY system app you don´t need with Titanium Backup.
This app can also do much more pretty good things.
Thanks every body,
i got everything besides
"but I´d suggest you to install EVERY system app you don´t need with Titanium Backup.

?
What system apps ?
How do i install CWM ? It says in the thread
"
Installation
see attachments
- "Amend" should be flashed by xRecovery
- "Edify" should be flashed by the previous CWM recovery
"
Does it means i have to install xRecovery first? then CWM ?

Which CM7 7.2 did you use? by squadzone? subpsyke? mebitek? CM7.1 by tj_style? you have to be specific with the versions and developer since we have more than a couple of CM7..
I had used squadzone's CM version..

try to install again the rom (choose the last one -->RC5.5 if u want)
and when u're still in cwr mode, wipe data and cache (u'll lose all ur installed apps)
thank u fo ur advice bt after knowing my problem i re-installed cm versions again n again but i see the same problem again..
I upgraded to cm7 from gingerbread 2.3.6..
as i didn't solve the prob i did factory reset too bt no use..
i also had problems with my cm7, i tried to go back to stock by restoring my nandroid backup made with CWM. That backup wasn't made correctly so there was some panic untill i found peace again: look for your stock rom here http://droidangel.blogspot.com/2011/05/samsung-galaxy-mini-s5570-original.html and flash it using odin, and you're back to normal again
i really like having this as a last resort backup, so i can trie rom's without having to worry about soft-bricking my device

i only flashed a stock rom once when my phone got really stuck, you do loose everything (phone isn't even rooted anymore), if you're still able to save some apps and data with titanium backup then you can restore everything pretty quickly after changing rom's

Which method do you think is much easier to get 100% SUCCESS on ROOT

after backreading for a couple of days, i have seen a lot ways to root & install recovery on our OptimusBlack .. . mine is V20B im knowledgeable enough about modding phones.. last two are OptimusOne(frroyo) & X8(eclair) ~
this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456274
or this one using BlackJack Method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111771
now my question is which method do you think is much easier to get 100% SUCCESS on ROOT
someone here who get a successfull root access using BlackJack?
any feedbakcs?
IMHO, if you still om froyo, the first one should work best (SoC right?)
But GB? Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23790405

Question: Does this method of rooting your Black leave the Phone untouched?
Cause my mobo died on me - and after the repair i got it back from maintenance with Stock V20N on it. I flashed then V20C, rooted it with SOC and put my Nadroid backup on it. I had then to install the LG Update (cheat with own little Webserver and edited LMHOST) to update to V20N / V20O. Now i am on V20O......
I have finally the phone and layout i like but miss root to Backup the current ROM.So after playing hours with it - and the upcoming CMW9 or Miui ROM around the corner - i need Clockword Mod. So question again short:
How to root V20O without losing settings / data / apps?
Pls advice and sorry if i overread the solution in some of the threads - i read them nearly all....

that method is for rooting GB right? but what about installing CWM?
Got my new OB and its on GB v20b..
That method is for flashing an already rooted version of v20.
Flash it (use the same version as you already have and make no wipes after)
then install superuser.zip and you ll have access to CWM.
That s all you gotta do.
Or flash v10a or similar with smartflash, root it, install cwm and then install any custom ROM you want. That s probably even easier.

okay.. now im confused where's the real thread or link for rooting GB v20b?
v20o root does not work
hi there,
first of all, I'm a noob in rooting and flashing, etc. I have a question regarding the mentioned v20o flashing (by SergovnikRZM):
I downloaded and installed all files, but in SmartFlashTool the start button is grey, I cannot start the process.
Also I cannot choose the Com Port and the LG Mobile USB serial port as the picture shows.
What should I do? Do you have any idea?
(I have a v20o Hungarian rom and the OS is xp sp3)
Thanks in advance and sorry if it's trivial but it is not mentioned in the steps..
How about enabling windows enabler? If your on Windows 7, you should run it as admin. you need to click on windows enabler, till it shows ON.
Ok, I will try, but this step was not mentioned...
(os is xp sp3)
when I tried the KDZ update I had to run windows enabler, and it was working well, and as I see this tool is also included to root, but this step is missing
Anyway, thanks your reply I will try it

[Q] hotspot problem

hi
Here is my problem.
When i was on ics LRQ or LRT, i tried to use hotspot on my gnote to give internet to my tablet (asus transformer , rom aokp, works fine with my wife's S3), i find the gnote, connect on it, but i can't access the internet.
I tried on GB LC1, it worked fine. I'm now on LSZ, hotspot not working, same problem, can be see, connect on it, but no internet.
I tried with the app wifi tether, there is an error in the log : "failed : setting ad-hoc mode"
So what can i do, lsz is better for me than LC1, it's not material as it worked on lc1.
No one with an answer ?
So another request that may help me find out : can someone in lsz stock with philz kernel post some screenshots of the root directory to see what files are in ?
I'm sure it's a missing file that disable the hotspot as it worked on GB stock rom, but i don't know which one

If you think that a file is missing: root directory won't help and it is much easier to install a new and complete XXLSZ Rom. A file is only missing after you deleted it - if you do not know which one, tehn reinstalling is a much better way to solve your problems.

I tried installing many time the rom, starting on a clear base (all wipe from philz, install lc1, factory reset then install LSZ), but always same problem. And it worked on LC1 but not on ics rom nor JB.

you need to install an earlier version (V20X) and then upgrade to version (V30X) 4.0.4 or better go to cm10.1 or 4.2.2 Mackay ... SmartFlash and y need to use bin files ...
ICS 4.0.4 no good for root or use rom manager = security error ...
*sorry bad english , im brazilian ... I'm learning ..
u should flash v10(froyo) using smart flash tool and then root by ginger break and install rom manager and CWM.
if u find v10 rom send its link to me pls!
