I just installed GingerDX on my Xperia X8 and all the other modules etc...Then I was told to reboot so I did (via CWM) then It started rebooting and showed GingerDX boot animation but immedietly it just froze on the boot animation. Now it just shows a still image of the GingerDX animation. Whats the problem? Pls help!
BTW I havent unlocked my bootloader (i dont have to), there were no problems while flashing and my phone is network locked.
Maybe you should just wait for a bit longer, I also tought it froze, but it booted eventualy. Especialy on the first boot, the thing takes a while.
How long did you wait, I've waited 10 mins and nothing happened?
Oh sorry, that's way more that I meant. I guess there is something wrong. Hope you fix it!
I don't know what to do, I need help, thats why I am posting! Please someone help me!!!
I reflashed everything Incase it may help, but It happens again! Pls help me.

from that i guess you can access cwm, full wipe, go to advanced<wipe dalvik, reflash.
give it a try.
if it doesnt help...
are you sure the download was alright?, maybe redownload....
if you cant do anything, dont be panic its just a bootloop, you can easily fix it!
I done the full wipe via CWM and re-flashed everything and it worked!!!! THANK YOU stamatis!!!!! THX!!!! So far so good all is going well!!!

glad to helped you
facing the same problem, and now even after switching off my phone (unplug battery since power button doesnt work)
this is what i did
1) rooted via SuperOneClick 2.3.3
2) used x8toolbox.final: http://goo.gl/6nCJL
3) selected option 2: Free Xperia CWM 4.0.1.5
result: successful
4) cleared cache and dalvik
5) install zip from sdcard
6) chose GingerDX v028b (downloaded from google code from this thread http://goo.gl/SRCdi)
result: install from SDcard complete
now even after 20 minutes its still stuck in boot
Do a full wipe/factory reset at cwm before install the rom

Did you wipe ./ reset on ICS? if so - probable brick..
Alternatively, Is your battery charged? tried alternate?
Can you get it into Download / Recovery mode... or are you getting nothing out of it at all..
1. Why did you think it was a good idea to pull the battery while doing something like this?
2. Wich kernel were you using?
3. Can you boot into Download mode?

Firstly why super super bricked, I never understand why super birck is even around either its bricked or not.
Anyway, where you running a ICS rom with the emmc bug kernel before factory wiping?
but if you pulled the battery before it had finished this could have also done it.
Try plugging the phone in to your computer and pressing the power button and using adb to try and connect to the device
that means its bricked ,,, like u asked me,,, reset on ICS/wipe..
tried alternate battery too,,didnt worked
everyone knows factory reset/wipe is dangerous on ICS even with CWM - this is more important to those who have no warranty on their Note. What I really don't understand is why do people still continue to wipe/reset if they knew the risk of bricking their device and then complain afterwards??

Why did you do that? This section is litterally filled with warnings in every corner.
NEVER EVER DO A FULLWIPE ON ICS KERNEL
Still if you are able to put device in download mode(Vol down+home+power) then flash stock GB ROM and then wipe cache and data
same problem here too
my phone doesnt go in download mode or in recovery mode.....
can somebody explain the problem and probable come out with a solution
Can you fast boot from adb?

Currently only solution is to send it for repairs or repartition to bypass the damaged section of the chip.

As simple as it can be... if the phone does not boot into download mode or into cwm... its a brick
If it enters cwm... you can try the pit file mode with a stock GB rom... or you could also try the repartition method with ADB (i did it by my self and it works, currently using that ex-bricked smartphone

yes speed mod is safe, so you can wipe in any safe kernel, but personaly i prefer wiping in Abyssnote kernel bec it is a GB kernel to be 100% in the safe side, and it doesn't take more than 10 sec to flash the abyys kernel zimage through mobile odin, before installing whatever, or wiping anything
but cwm. zip is not save
cwm from speedmod is
speedmod and flash cwm. zip is not

I try to update my xperia x8 with the pc companiom and gave me error, now the phone will not start, I try to fix it with FlashTool, companiom SEUS and pc and I get the same result with error ... the phone does not start .. the flash mode if it works yet .. is a hardbrick? ..
observations: I did install recovery and root .. but I could never change the baseband to 015 .. flashing aborted or something ..
I have hopes of repairing it? .. excuse my writing .. I'm using google translator .. I'm from Argentina ..
Thanks to all!

Does your phone goes to flash-mode?(((or also it reacts to pressing power button? -like vibration or Sony logo?)))
Take out the battery and replace it ,Press "back" button and plug the USB!
+ reinstall drivers by opening golden gate app(or something like that, I don't remember! ) (from c:/flashtools/drivers )
+ make sure that your battery is working fine
+ upload flash tools log file here

Hello.
I have a diffrent kind of problem.
So yesterday i saw on my phone that headphones icon is on but it's not connected of course so i thought maybe wrong flash or something with system.
Of course i have bad luck to devices such as i8190 and when i tried to go in download mode it wouldnt start.
I searched forum and other site and tried to force download mode by adb tool and after that flash it by odin.
Of course my bad luck kicked me in the a.. and adb tool can't boot it too.
So i tought (maybe) other combinations of button then i pressed volume up and power and then i see a text POWER OFF, UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE.
Desperate by such thing i tried to do something with cwm of course my rooted phone lose (by some mean) superuser not just program but whole root when to trash with cwm and other things...Tried to factory reset by phone aplication didnt do anything by deleting all ringtones and options i had.
I have android 4.1.1 no root, no means to go in to recovery mode no means to get in download mode.
Dont know what to do to returned it to good state.
So my question is please. Can somebody help me ?
Greetings from Poland!

Yep i tried that but i manage to force it by adb by some miracle dunno what happen earlier but now after flash i have problem with that headphone icon. I flashed it with 4.1.2 maybe wipe and param files do something.
When i boot phone it's alright but after fully started its shows its connected to headphones while headphones are off and ringtones play alright but media is playing in headphones mode so i will try to degrade it with firmware 4.1.1 xxall maybe something will change or happily it will be okay.
If someone have idea for this please reply
Strange bug I've never heard of before. Have you tried to make a factory reset from recovery?
Also do a factory reset before you downgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.1.1, otherwise you'll end up with bootloop or force closing apps.
