Hi everyone,
I got my old Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 (E15a) and i would like to upgrade its android version to Android 4.0 (API 14 ) or above, it is possible to upgrade it and keep it stable? If so what ROM do you recommend me to use? I'm new in this thing, so please dont be mean with me.
If it is not possible to upgrade to 4.0 or above, which version of android do u think would be the best option to upgrade, my current 2.1.
I hope u guys could help me.
Thanks for advance,
Erick.

Yes, go to the development section, browse around the roms and find one that suits your likings and needs. Read carefully the installation instruction and flash it.
If you need something more specific then ask.
If it your fist time messing with custom roms maybe you would like to start with 2.3. Try out Gingerdx.
Can you provide me a guide for begginers?

there is no such thing.
And why don't you try it for yourself? you will get to experience it first hand. And if your scared then don't use odin or cwm or even rooting because there are always risks involved in these.

The SGSII v8.1 patch u r talking about is jst a patch for the COmplete v8 ROM. it has recently been updated to v9 and it really is a gud ROM the Battery life is also better in the LAtest Release and it is almost stock based so u won't find A WHOLE LOT of UI changes on your ACe jst additions, and the PErformance is also gud.
other than this, you can try the MIracle ROM it is also a wonderful ROM bt as it is performance based, u can't expect a battery life of 1 day
As you roam around the forums you will learn slowly by trying and testing stuff.
Ohh and ACTUALLY, there is NO perfect ROM

Hi all, I was hoping to upgrade my 2.1 android version on the gt-i9000. I had a very good look at the forum, but I couldn't find any good thread on how to upgrade to that version and the files needed. Can anybody suggest a good thread please? Also do you reckon ICS is a good choice? I am not an expert on this but I have managed to root and unlock the phone so I would like to get a better reliable android version for my phone
thanks

ICS is good but our devices can handle more lol and jellybean isc the best android experience imo
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium HD app
Hey guys, I am a newbie here.Also i don't know much about android.So please forgive me if I ask or say something stupid or childish.
I am from India and I have a samsung galaxy S advance I9070.I recently updated it to official jellybean via kies(Baseband version-I9070DDULP8)(Not a rooted device)
It is very slow and hangs a lot with frequent restarts.I heard that the official firmware xxlpz4.1.2 is comparitevely bug free and more stable and I wanted to try it out.But I couldn't find a firmware for it.I must have searched about 30 sites to download this firmware and all of them takes me to a hotfile link which is dead:crying:.Its like this firmware doesn't exist anymore.
Anyone knows where I can get this firmware?Please help me.
Also can u guys please tell me which is the latest and most bug free version of jellybean available(official one) for s advance.
And also where to get the firmware.

Here we go: XXLPZ - SER download or here, but IMO you not doing so much related skip bugs.
Most of us, at the beginning, is debloating the unnecessary files, flash custom kernel (now you don't have too much for choose, only Cocafe's kernel) and so on.
But its your choice to flash other baseband.
Good luck

Coba ini Coy...!!!!
Maybe you can while sleeping while waiting for the results of your completed downloads
Unfortunately both of your link is also dead.Actually can you suggest to me which is the most stable jelly bean official firmware available and where to get it.For now I would like to stick to the official ones,since I am very unexperienced in these matters.
(Actually I dont even know how to debloat the unnecessary files and also didnt understand what you meant by flashing custom kernel and what is Cocafe.I mean I know what it is to flash a custom rom but dont know anything about kernel or even what kernel means.P.S- I believe flashing a custom rom is installing a developer modified version of an android version like jellybean or kitkat via odin which is possible only after you do a process called root in your phone and also which is compatible with your phone)
I appologise if I sounded stupid.Being a doctor I know very little about the technical stuffs.
Thank you for spending your valuable time for me.I really appreciate it.

You can go to Samsung Updates and although this is not a recommendation, the one I use is the ARO UBLPK and it has the latest build number and date. Works well on my phone. just sayin' hope this helps...
