[Q] Custom ROM and ANT+ - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone. First of all, I appreciate your work very much! Thanks a lot
I've been using 2.1 Stock (I tried some ROMs long ago but they were still buggy). Today I tried FroyoPro 2.5 and it worked perfectly but one thing: the ANT+ service, which I use 3-4 times a week. I've read threads about people asking for ANT+ but i have found no solution in them.
Tried some ROMs without success and ended up softbricking my phone. I got it solved now.
Do you know any stable ROM using 2.2+ that can support ANT+? I can't unlock boot (it's amongst the newest revisions) and have to run stock kernel, and sticking to 2.1 and Android Market is killing me.

Indeed, I tried this on FroyoPro but it wouldn't work. It also depends on the ROM
It works perfectly under Android 2.1 though, as Sony enabled it for ANT+

Tried Delneshin but ANT+ wouldn't work

[Q] Unable to reroot after flashing p1010 to Gingerbread

I recently flashed to Gingerbread on my gt p1010 using the guide found at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410035
Everything is fine however, like the guide mentioned, I need to reroot the phone. I tried using the Superoneclick method that I used before installing gingerbread however it doesnt seem to work. The guide mentioned doing it with CF-ROOT however there doesnt seem to be one that works for the p1010 wifi only version of the tab.
Can anyone help me out?
My gt p1010 info
Firmware 2.3.6
Kernel version 2.6.35.7-CL749223 [email protected] #1
Build number GINGERBREAD.XXKPG
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386643 this one here works, it has some random reboots using root functionality, but it works

This worked. Thank you. One more question if you don't mind.
A new clockwork mod manager was installed using the cf-root you linked. However when I open it it tells me that I'm running a different kernel and that several features have been disabled. Is possible for me to flash a different kernel to gain the usage of these features?

[Q] Galaxy Tab P1000 new owner: any reccomendation with roms?

Hi everybody.
I just bought my very first tablet- a GT p1000.
Now, in the past few days I've been watching vids about CM9, which I find extremely cool.
As I gather, it is nowhere near completed yet tho.
So, in the meantime, could you suggest some decent looking and 100% working rom for my tablet?
You gotta admit, this forum is not very search friendly.
I have official Froyo installed as of right now, which is not very nice.
Thanks in advance and sorry for bothering ya'll.
Cheers.
just go to the dev thread and see the most popular posts there.
I think Overcome 4.1 is most popular.
You can try Hyperdroid and Accudroid too. All are GB ROMs.
Hi, I'm a newbie as well. Flash mine with Overcome 4.1 and then Hyperdroid a few days later.
My suggestion as a newbie is to use overcome 4.1 if u don't want to use stock rom.
I use Hyperdroid coz using Overcome, I have wifi disconnecting on it's own same like when I use stock GB 2.3.3
PS: Should u choose to use Hyperdroid, mind u it's a very slim rom, many of the standard app is not installed by default. But you can always install the removed applications manually. Hyperdroid has a zip file containing all the standard removed applications.

Thanks both for the suggestions.
I checked both out already.
I also checked aestethic only personalisations via apps and themes and I have to say they're pretty nice too (might just do that while waiting for CM9 in a few weeks).
Is it true tho that official GB has wifi problems?
That's worrying, since I'll be using wifi most of the time.
Wifi issue is hit and miss.
Maybe it is wifi router dependant. Maybe 10%-20% has it.
I am fine using overcome 4.1 with 3 different wifi router.

wifi issue was 100% caused by belkin router.
If you do have belkin router, see this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1441040&highlight=wifi
If you have different router, there shouldn´t be problems with wifi

Thanks for the info.
I have Netgear both at home & workplace.
Not a pressing matter after all anyway as I found out:
I managed to get a 3gb/month with no overlimit charge (only slower speed) for 5 euros/month. That'd should be plenty.
Pretty nice.
Sorry again, but what is the maximum size micro sd I could use on the P1000?
Is it 32 or 64gb?
Thanks.

Hi
Here is a good starting point http://www.teamovercome.net/p1000/?page_id=21 and you dont need to change the CWM it works fine.
Cheers
thanks for the reply ..
I'm downloading all the neccesary files on the link above, still waiting for completing ..
the problem is I never flash this gtab before so it not containing any cwm recovery yet , so if flash with overcome would it gives cwm recover to my gtab ?
just notice few things on the link above ;
1. it contain gingerbread rom , my gtab already on gb , should I still do this ?
2. it have No_wipe & Wipe versions , which one should I use ?
is this just to get cwm recovery ?

I can't say, read the threads and take your favorite rom and flash that one first and try others as well before you setup your Phone to use it everyday so you will know what is available and works for you.

thanks acubens ,,,
I've successfully flashed it ..
Now I had CWM recovery on gtab ...

Ok then, I have a question. You can see I posted a thread earlier using another method from LifeHacker, how do I go about getting this one instead?
i posted a link to a youtube video how-to
Guess this only works for deodexed roms or deodexed versions of stock ics roms?
Worked great. Rooted Stock OTA ICS on Droid 4. However, it says there is an update available, and play store will not install it.
Any idea how to get it?
EDIT: Ok, Most of it worked great, right up until I tried to use my blutooth headset to initiate a call. The voice recognition here was all messed up. Nothing I tried worked, and I tried for 3 days to get a solution. Because I use this function so often, I had to remove this and go back to the standard ICS search. Also noticed it was a serious battery drain. Unfortunate. I really liked it.

Xperia X8 wi-fi not working(JB Mini Project)

Hello guys,
I am brand new here,as after 3 years of owning a X8 i decided to jump to other ROM,because i was bored of the simple design of his menu and i was so frustrated to stay back with android market when my friends had messenger for facebook e.g.,i had to refresh again and again my opera..and much more apps and games i would like to play.So,i decided to start searching for new ROMs,and i found MIUI,but i wasnt able to find a stable version to dl for my phone.Then i found JB Mini Project,I succeeded on installing it on X8 but there is one thing that wont work in every version of JB i have tried!THE WI-FI!It is really frustrating for me!I am so begginner to those things,but i understand that its not only me that will have this problem and that developers might be working on it right now(I am 3D designer and i know about beta versions of things,even I have to release again and again my creation because of a bug),but i really hope someone had this problem too and found a fix on it..I tried a fix i found in forums with Titanium Backup,but nothing...
Anyone knows anything..just help me out with this.:crying:
Thanks in advance guys!:cyclops:

What wifi problem do you have? Unable to detect Adhoc connection?
Have You tried this Kernel + Rom ? (All JB rom is unable to scan adhoc wifi. Except if you make changes to the source and compile it yourself)
If you want to surf the internet but with not using wifi and using a cable, This is a Post for you.
use back stock ROM (just kidding

Maybe the rom + kernel combination is wrong or the rom is just being buggy.
I just personally liked nAa's work because he release a stable version of every product.
If you want to change into the recommended rom that I just told you;
1. Flash the latest kernel (06)
2. Follow instruction on the kernel post. (/system wipe at recovery before flashing a rom & etc)
3. Flash the rom. Followed by the GAPPS
4. As it said, this is my recommendation steps. I do not guarantee your satisfactory

[Q] Question about custom rom firmware

Hi guys, im really new to this forum and all about these android stuffs. As this is my first post, im terribly sorry if i started a new thread. yesterday, i flashed my galaxy mini from stock gingerbread firmware to this custom rom forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2409566
it worked greatly, it says that my android version is 4.0.4 . But, when i installed apps that is supposed to work at ICS, it cant work. It can be installed, but when I tried to run it, it just said that unfortunately, the application had stopped working. im really confused. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Which app was that? It's probably an app for armv7 only.
It is BBM. I go through the net to find the system requirements, but i found nothing

I see...... Anyway, as i upgraded from stock gingerbread, and after i flashed that rom, it had provided the play store. I want to know, did the Play Store recognize my phone as still a gingerbread or an ICS? or should I flash an ICS gapps package? will that help?
