[Q] Boot loader

Heya!
I've a question. THat if i unlock my boot loader, and flash a new kernel, will i need to reinstall my current rom, or its not important?

It is depending on the fact that your current rom is compatible with the kernel or not?
Gingerdx-->Alfs or ldx
minicm7.2-->naA kernel.
Hope this will help ...

Just a suggestion: unlock bootloader after restoring phone with seus to base 2.1, so there will be far less (or none) problem through the procedure.

One question, the recommended step if i want to flash custom kernel n rom is:
-flash kernel first,then rom
Or
-flash rom,then kernel..?

First flash kernel. I think you can do the opposite, but flashing kernel first is the best solution.

i read that after unlocking bootloader, the xrecovery no longer works. so if i flash back my phone to 2.1, if i root and install xrecovery, will the xrecovery works..? or i must install CWM instead..?
and what i must do if i want to flash a ROM that need to be flash with xrecovery..?

Install the Dual-Mode recovery with x8Toolbox, that'll give you xRecovery AND CWM.

Használd a SEUS-t inkább. Ott kiválasztod, hogy X8-ad van, és ráflasheli az E15 firmware-jét, utána szerintem menni fog.

Use SEUS instead of PCC. There you can chose that you've got X8, then it will flash E15 firmware, then I think it will work.

Köszi szèpen! / thx

back up your data -> go back to stock with SEUS or flash offline,,root again,install CWM,then flash the custom rom.

diff roms needs to be Installed with diff recovery menu, and always do a fullwipe before and after installing,mayb u installed a rom which need to be installed with a diff recovery?

u're same as me ..i tried every rom but all the roms crashes or is too lag to even use ...i gave up on them and use stock rom =)

Reinstall to 2.1. Full-Wipe then Root,Install REcovery install any Rom u desire and after that full-wipe and done.

well i read the forums but i didnt discover the same problem as me ...so again is the stock x8 rom not supposed to work after i flash the kenrel or am i doing something wrong?(ican get to cwm).MOreover,do i have to load the custom rom file first,then flash the kernel,then flash the loaded rom?

dude, flash nAa v10. after you flash it, the kernel logo will appear followed by the battery sign.
press power button, the phone will boot and the kernel logo will appear.
you will be sent do CWM Menu.
if you have a compatible ROM for nAa kernel, do a full wipe and reboot and see if the ROM boots successfully.
if you dont have a compatible ROM, do a full wipe, install CM 2.1.8 and then reboot.

U have to unlock bootloader first before flashing kernel,
this is the step (with stock kernel and rom installed and root) :
- unlock bootloader
- flash kernel
- enter cwm
- wipe data
- install custom rom
- wipe data again
- restart system
and ur good to go

You cant load stock rom with a custom kernel. Just flash GingerDx Rom and you should be fine. Flash the kernel first using the flash tool, then flash the rom using CWM and then turn on the phone

No problem im here to help!!!

Here is a newbie guide to unlock the bootloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436924&page=2
After you unlocked BL you can flash the kernel with flashtool (with the latest one)
-Don't forget to copy you're rom to SDcard!
When the nAa logo appears hit the back button and you're in cmw menu.
full wipe->instal custom rom-> reboot your phone !

first flash your kernel and then install custom rom...

Hello, im helping a friend root he's phone.

He then went into CWM and clicked:
- backup nandroid
- delete dalvik cache
- reset factory
- install zip from sdcard: Presto ... install it...... . .. . .
- Restart phone.

have u tried to use SEUS?

we fixed it.
I dont have this phone, so I didnt know you needed to have custom kernel and unlocked baseband.
How can I get the:
1. Latest baseband
2. Unlocked bootloader

to unlock the bootloader you have to check This
for latest baseband update the phone with Update Service

Thank you.
Where can I find this kernels
nAa AND ALFS KERNEL ?
or do they come with the ROM and automatically flash?

you can find in one of the Development Thread, you have to flash it first with flashtool then you can flash the ROM via CWM..

U means u didn't install X recovery.... If u install cwm its possible u having this problem... Cwm only work on stock rom.... Use flash tool and repair.. Install X recovery....i installed it too.. I got the same before, though it was on that Site.. This will work on stock rom

Revert to Stock Kernel & ROM issue!

Hi Guys,
I have my x8 phone running on nAa's latest v6 kernel with ZenceFil ROM(GB 2.3.7) with ofcourse an un-locked bootloader. But now i want to move back to stock settings.
I had made a backup using xRecovery before installing these mods, so my question is, how to I restore that xRecovery backup along with the stock kernel which i already got from the unlock bootloader thread??
I tried flashing the stock kernel but then the phone just get's stuck in the boot logo page with Sony Ericsson logo, can't even open the recovery, which i guess is not included in the stock kernel file.
I tried installing xRecovery by copying its files to /system/bin but still i have CWM as recovery!
Please advise...
p.s. I saw this thread, but the solution provided there is not working for me as PCC is not helping, it juts say's no s/w found for your device. Also I don't want to lock the boot loader.

Flash stock 2.1 trough flash tool>root it>instal xrecovery and then restore backup.

I have downloaded the stock 2.1 rom but how do i flash a ROM using flash tool? I don't see that option..

Flash it like kernel.

NAA6 is using difrent system-data partition size. If you want to move to other kernel you need first boot into cwm and format data and system partitions, then flash other kernels.
You can also flash your phone with SEUS and you will have stock rom-kernel like you had when you bouth the phone (if your bootloader was unlocked SEUS will leave it unlocked).

Stock rom and kernel you can flash using Flash Tool, just move the ftf file (for exemple 2.1.1.C.0.0.ftf) move this to the FIRMWARE flashtool' folder. Open flash tool and click on the "lightning" icon, (on old version click on flash) and select flash mode. Turn off the phone and flash it like a normal kernel.

But the stock rom that i downloaded has no ftf file! It's a normal backup have 4 .img files.. how do i flash that?

You could use SEUS. It will install the newest firmware for x8 and it won't relock bootloader (for me it don't relock it), but you have to root your phone and install xrecovery one more time.
