Unlocking bootloader is still needed.
Just do it and then install recovery

As mentioned in the original thread also, there is no recovery for primehd v8
You have to install it manually or use x8 tool box.

[Q] Cant install any custom rom! :(

Dear friends,
I always stuck at SE logo whenever I try to install custom rom. Here is what I do:
1. Root My stock 2.1 with Flashtool
2. Install Busybox with flash tool
3. Copy xrecovery's 3 files to system/bin
4. Restart in xrecovery and Choose Install custom zip
5. After installation, I reboot and stuck!!!
I have tried "MiniCM7-2.2.1-shakira" and "GingerDX-v029-shakira.zip"
Any Help?? I dont want to unlock my bootloader.
Thnx
"MiniCM7-2.2.1-shakira" and "GingerDX-v029-shakira.zip" uses custom kernel.must on unlockbootloader
use gingerdx v29 for stuck

No,its like xrecovery
So,use cwm,full wipe before installing and check(at the about phone) your baseband,it should be like this, xxx15,if its not, update it with pccompanion or flashtool

No, how to do this?? is there any risk of hard brick?
No just find the baseband file and flash it on flashtool
Sent from my X8 using xda app-developers app
i recommend to you to start from scratch, 2.1, root, flash baseband, install busybox, install CWM recovery, the full wipe and flash rom, you can flash the baseband with flashtool, and i think there is no risk, i have done it several times, the baseband xxxx15 is required to flash custom roms.

If you have installed gingerdx there is no need to flash baseband xxx15 because you already have it!

Did you flash the overclock module? If yes,use setcpu or similar apps to change frequency
I don't recommend overclock,but if you want it that much...its your phone after all...

[Q] Custom kernel

My friend have the p970, and he talk me to install a custom rom for he, but any rom need custom kernel. In my xperia x8, to install a custom kernel, need a uncloked bootloader and a flash process in pc. But i see a video showing a instalation of cm10 on p970, without flashing a new kernel with other program, but the kernel change just with a zip instalation.
How can i install cm10 for p970 without unklocking bootloader? Im cofused.
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
Installing a rom on P970 its a pretty simple.
You just need root and recovery... to install a rom just do a full wipe and then install the .zip, search on general section about how to make root.
Just this? Isnt necessary to unclock bootloader to flash cm10 and flash a kernel with a program?
Sorry for noob question and bad english

Nope, because our bootloader is unlocked. Kernel comes with the flashable .zip file, so no need for additionally flashing anything after

be sure that your bootloader is unlocked and you are trying the correct rom and kernel.
please check your kernel version. if you are in custom kernel ,please reflash it.
maybe you are trying to install wrong rom.
if the problem exists, try to back to stock rom and kernel.
What rom are you trying to install?
First u need to root ,
