Hi! I'm new in here and I don't really know what I'm doing....
Here's the thing: I want to install GingerDX to my SEX8, I follow every step in the installation guide:
- I downloaded the rom "something Shakira" I think
- I copied it in the SD card
- I ran CWM and wiped everything and installed the rom from zip file
but when i reboot the phone it gets stucked in the Sony Ericsson logo screen.
I fixed it with PCC and now I have Eclaire again. I've done this twice and with the same result.
I don't know ANYTHING about alf's or flashing or anything else so....
Could you please please help me posting a guide step by step or tell me whats wrong with what I am doing??? if I have to flash or something else tell me how to do it because like I said I don't know anything about this! Please! I would appreciate it a LOT!
And PLEASE don't reply me saying that I have to Google it because i searched everywhere but unsuccessful....
Thank You!!!!

Try installing JM1 firmware with 512 pit and re-partition enabled in Odin3. Then update to Clockwork Recovery and install your Mod .zip.
Ppl disagree but I used to have the same problem as yours but now its working. Give it a try and let us know how it went pls.

Thank you very much brittosa , Im giving it a try right now.. will report back ASAP... If this solves it... U have made my day.. BIG TIME!!!!
STAY TUNED....
Oh and @ Rawat.. Why state the obvious... ??? lol
Same happened here, above fix shall repair it. My problem, Cache was corrupted but System wasn't...
try going to settings -> applications -> manage applications -> Market and do Clear Data and then Force Stop. worked for me
Is it dalvik cache problem? or is it ROM problem? Have you tried to install the latest version of market? Search for it.
hey. i had sane problem, tried to repartition with jm8 and then flash to darkys rom again, same problem, the market would not update to the new one. but on stock jpy it would update. iam using docs rom now, everything ok

Really glad it worked. I had posted this fix in Darky's thread and many - including Darky himself - swore that this would never work! Hope the others with this issue try this out too.

Hi guys!!
I'm new here, I found your page cause I am very interested in the update of my xperia x8, I have to say, you're awesome, from 2.1 to 2.3, and I get this ROM "GingerDX v022 2.3.7", i've already checked my kernel and base band, they're both updated,
Well, my trouble is that when I did all the process with xRecovery step by step, after that, I installed the ROM and it got stocked in the gingerdx logo with a short sound and It won't start now, I dont know what to do, otherwise I'm gonna find another ROM that works better than this one,
It would be nice that you can help me with this or recommend me a better one
Thanks!!

Yes, if You're stuck on a bootanimation try to format the data from xRecovery, else try to change the Kernel

if recovery wasnt erased you can take the battery out, put it back in, turn on the phone and when the softkeys start to twinkle(be quick) press power+volDOWN to enter recovery from there flash a new rom, always before flashing remember to wipe data/cache and dalvik cache in recovery.
Try the new Echelon is great and LFD is gonna be updated next week.
i tried both these but i didn't make any resluts please help

Hmmm.... In my opinion its quite unlikely that the tutorial link i posted got no/bad results.
When Smartflash doesnt do the trick (asuming you did it right), well, thats bad
I got bootloops many times but i always saved my phone with the smartflash tool....

Smart flash worked ! my phone is back ! thank u bro :X

Cwm injection, fduring setup. There is no tool which can do it yet...

Yes, I was on froyo... missed this part when replied.
But I think it could do the job, even if he is on 2.3, well, that's what google shows when I search for "rooting android 2.3".
Am I wrong?

If you have unbrick your ob with v10a, yes you can root with Gingerbreak 1.20.

No, you can NOT root any v20/2.3 software/gingerbread on optimus black with gingerbreak. It only works on froyo, even if it s called GINGERbreak...
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
method with smartflash tools :
* v10a + apk Gingerbreak
* v20x + flash superuser.zip from cwm

Okay, thank you!
Now let's be honest, this name is really confusing, right? Gingerbreak and only works with Froyo?
Maybe it's this way because by rooting your phone you'll be able to flash Gingerbread? hahaha.
Just sayin'.

Some help
I dont know if this can help you but, here is a great tutorial to go back to stock 2.3.6. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255305 )
Since the hotfile page is shut down, here is a link to download working firmware (I am using it) http://getwapi.com/down/dir/rar/IGw...&dsid=3oh7jy.ca13a2a94308e8caeecddd9a2dad0f9a
Heads up. If you have a gt s5570l then unfortunately, this will not work, and you can end up with a bricked phone. Hope I helped

Hello folks...
well.... i'm having a weird situation here....
i want to try the cyanogemmod to see how it is... So.... i went from the factory rom to stock rom downloaded from here (( ok )), then I installed this one (( ok ))... then I flashed this one (( sort of ok ))....
then, this latest CM version came with so many issues and bugs (( freezes and gives me an error from everything all the time)) then I decided (( in less of 24 hours of use)) to flash another ROM.... so my journey begins...
I decided to flash the Miui to try it, then I got stuck on AROMA installer....

Thanks!
Simply.
If something went wrong restore your backup (which you didn't make I think) and as last option download stock Rom and flash it with flashtool.
There is plenty of tutorial how to do it on YouTube.

If someone got stuck on this same situation.... i solved this with a simple solution..... follow these simple steps
- regardless your phone.... download a stock rom with any kind of modifications at all... try to download right from your manufacturer a clean one...
- flash it, following the steps as recommended BY YOUR manufacturer...
- after the flashing... turn on your device and use it a little bit....
- turn it off and flash the rom you want as recommended by the dev...
that's it!!! enjoy again your phone! =)
cheers =)
