Your phone may have just been softly bricked (bootloop). You didnt install the ROM correctly or it is not compatible with the kernel.
Check the ROM's thread to see, otherwise repair it using Sony Ericsson companion.
Hope it helped

Good advice, check your baseband, it must end on "015", as stated in the tutorials.
Install GingerDX only via CWM.
Do a full wipe and then install the rom, it should work.

If you still see " Sony Ericsson" bootscreen, then you still in stock kernel and have not install the aNa Kernel! MiniCM7 cannot install on stock kernel! you cannot use aNa Kernel, if you have not unlocked your bootloader!
Look at the date of manufacturing carefully, otherwise you may brick your phone! PM if you desperate!
Were you be able to connect to your PC? If so, then Flashtool may help!

Sent from my E15i using xda premium
Did you follow the tutorial step?
Should be no problem.
you have no problem with bootloader, your bootloader is being successfuly unlocked.
as long as you can access cwm, full wipe and reinstall the rom, everything should be fine!

GingerDX v030 stuck at splash screen

I searched a lot in all threads to find a similar question or just an answer to my problem.
To start I have to tell you that I already had the v029 installed with the stock kernel and everything was fine.
Then I wanted to check some other roms and if they fit me better. So i got it from the begining. Wiped everything and installed the stock eclair with PCC. Unlocked the bootloader through a very usefull guide found here and flashed the latest nAa kernel. Then I downloaded the MiniCM9 3.0.5 Rom and installed it succesfully.
Everything is working fine but I wanted to go back to GingerDX. So I did a factory reset/wiped everything downloaded the rom for the nAa kernel and installed it. It said that it was successfuly installed. But when I try to boot my phone It stucks on the GingerDX splash screen with the animation and doing nothing. No keys working. I removed the battery to shut down, install the CM9 rom again and everything's fine.
Can you please tell what am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Any luck? I just installed the kernel on the link you posted and have the exact same problem. The boot screen stays on the splash animation. It's been there for more than 15 minutes and the animation itself is slow as hell.
Hi there..
When we switch between GB and JB kernels we must format /system /data and /cache when we flash the new kernel.
Yes, I flashed the kernel in the link and then the gingerdx rom. I did the wipe in data/cache/dalvik cache and everything else that is needed.
The only thing that occured was a problem in the format during the installation. I formated it manually before the install and it was ok.

Full wipe before installing.
Yes..
there must be a problem with wiping...
You might have forgot to full wipe..
Thank you everybody, I finally managed to get GingerDX running. Wiping everything actually worked.
Still took ages to boot but it is finally on!

[Q] GingerDX v030 to v31b bricked my X8 - help?

I've searched through XDA (manually and with search function) but can't find the answer I need, so am trying here hoping someone will help.
I was running GingerDX v29 on my X8, happily, when I was notified of an update to v030. I left it a few days and then got the notification of an update to v031b. There was two options on the screen: Download GingerDX v031b, or download GingerDX stock. I figured since I'm already using GingerDX I should be able to just download the new version rather than the stock.
So I downloaded it to my SD card, rebooted to CWM and choose to install the download. All seemed to go through fine, I got a success message, and was invite to reboot. I rebooted, and I'm now stuck with "Sony Ericsson" across my screen and nothing else. No access to CWM etc.
I guess I have two questions:
1) Can I get back to v29 or finish off the update to v031b, without having to erase everything and redo whatever it was I had to do to get v29 on there in the first place (v29 was the first ROM I installed on my handset)?
2) What should I have done when presented with the options for upgrading? (I'd kinda like to acoid the same mistake in future.)
All help gratefully received, and I'll be liberal with the Thanks button
TIA
in CWM wipe cache and dalvk cache
if phone doesnt boot flash v29 back and create backup
than flash 31b,wipe data/cache and advance restore data from backup created earlier...wipe cache again
good luck
and post questions in Q/A section

Yeah, I think it's stock (I soft-bricked the handset once before, and followed instructions elsewhere on XDA to unbrick it - I think those instructions used a stock kernal)

you should have downloaded gingerdx for stock since you are on stock kernel. i guess gingerdx stock means the one for stock kernel

I think I did (as part of the v029 install (or maybe it was the v030 install - I can't even remember which one of those I was on)), but I can't say for sure. I definitely didn't when I tried to update to v031b. I just ran the .zip and when I got the confirmation of success I rebooted. Haven't got passed the Sony Ericsson logo since.

What would I need to have been running in order to have used the GingerDX v31b? (Sorry - I'm still learning about stock, kernels, ROMs, Alfs, nAa etc, so don't yet understand what they all mean / do / are used for.)
Is there any way I can recover my phone without having to reinstall all my apps etc?

you have unlocked bootloader? if so then flash custom kernel and it will boot fine.
you can use adb to backup your apps or flash back the previous version and backup them.
you might have downloaded the rom that was not for stock kernel.
your phone is soft bricked, can be repaired using sony pc companion.
Look for a thread to repair a soft bricked phone.
