I cant agree with you ! im using GingerDX for 2 days and its twice faster than FroyoBread~ and very stable... FC ? never had one ! only one issue i got is random reboot when im connected to ad hoc~ app works great and fast... camera work even better than in FroyoBread... v008 is first version i use and i cant image to rollback to FroyoBread... im not playing much games so i dont know... about headset it work better than in Froyo~ and autobrightness works very good...

Well in my case its working in a 100%...

Im not using FB so i dont know sorry :S ! i changed wallpaper of my lockscreen with no prooooblem...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Superuser.Angga:
Notice

Due to some objective circumstances, I have to give my X8 to one of my cousins by the end of this month. That means I will not be able to support all of my X8 works (GDX, FB, OC, UV, etc.). I will not be able to stay in our X8 scene, or to support our friends in X10M/X10MP section. v009 is the last version of my GDX series.

It's a bit pity that I cannot continue my "Sensify" progress.

I miss you all

@all let's donate to DX Here

Because DX is leaving US :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
Sure take it from floyo it looks fine .. ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] chewdaniel:
@DX my network is running on HSPA but in ur rom it's showing 3G. all others show H for me. tks :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] RaitR:
Same thing tho the icon or whatever is changed.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mohamad Jasnizam:
Dont demand him to fix the fm radio or what ever..like he said,he dont use the radio and might not fixed it, if wanna radio go get the others roms that had it..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mohamad Jasnizam:
Sony was never right, that for sure..also damn cant play ps3 on9 cuz the hax on svr-sorry for off topic lol
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ithunter:
u r great for me. thnx for the goood stuff adn great help for x8 users.... pls work for also touch :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] HAKA:
Well, a small question..yours pull down bar looks like this-

but using the XML attached, it can be made to look like this-

I tried it...the notification area changed, but the background Notification Power Widget color doesn't change...

Using the same...the status bar color can be made to look like this-

but yours is...a bit...ummm....glowish...which doesn't look THAT gingerbready! :)

just a small suggestion...

if you can implement this...your ROM will become even more awesum.. :)

please try the xml file attached...and fix the issues...

the file can be put in /sdcard/CMTheme and chosen from user interface>tweaks extras>select theme

hope you dont find it too burdening. ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Sgt-Hartley:
Didn't work for me status bar goes white after reboot. Any suggestions?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ENVIR:
i agree with you guy,, please fix arabic fonts DX,
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] tojnas:
awesome :) thanks a lot
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] tojnas:
I dont think anybody is demanding the radio fix. but there are a lot of requests. I myself dont ever use it but the idea of a perfect rom is appealing to not only to users but the developers as well i am sure.

Maybe its not a priority but this ROM is working its way fast towards completion and beyond and radio will come soon as well.

as for me, i wud rather hope dx feels like fixing the 'mute' button first :P.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] doixanh:
@HAKA: I like the current theme. Just make some changes and post it in Theme section.

@tojnas: FMRadio will be on the future plan list :) I'm not interested in this Radio though.

@ENVIR: I will have a look at Arabic if I have some time...

@as-mario: so switch back to Eclair and enjoy stock SE. We are not forcing you to use any Froyo/GB roms.

@chewdaniel: maybe the icon is incorrect? I will recheck.

@all: no beer for me after lots of hard work? After all my modules / ROM / efforts, I didn't get any beer @.@
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sandy_tea:
Dx..I really love your work..it looks awesome..can't wait to have next release..as for the lock..I really like current gingerbread..it gives gingerbread feel in froyo, right?..so do the boot animation..nice work..I just tested it yesterday and love it right away..good combination..you're the first..

If you happen to be in Indonesia I'll buy you a barrel of beer for sure..thanks..

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] biscoitu:
I don´t like so much battery icon...when you put to show the percentage of bat, I also can´t read clearly the number :D

I´d like to suggest then to put the icon like as some GingerBread that shows the percentage and a bar near it, like in this image

Thx for your good work :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] doixanh:

Can't You Read this?

That's very specific to the user experience, and maybe unit specific, that's why we people here in XDA report problems and bugs.

Results are not always the same. It's not a Choice

Hi, im having some issues with accelerometer in 023b.

in 020 and Gingerdx08 was working good.

How can i fix it ?

I already did full wipe, and cleaned davilks cache.

Any tips ?

Thanks
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] anilindika:
Thanks dear for your kind service.

thanks again ,you did what se couldn't do their customers.tx:)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
Listen to me, Pendejos!!!... Time to move to GINGERDX

:D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
Why? I'd rather use a kernel made for my phone, atleast until GingerDX is more finished... that is if DX is coming back.

Regardless, i'm not that hungry for a bit faster speed i prefer stability and if possible longer battery life... and i wanna avoid FC's and so far FroyoBread has served me well.

But i don't know, it's all up to each one of us to decide what we like the best.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
You didn't get it, man.

It seems you haven't seen Big Lebowski. Laughable, man!!

Anyway, I recommend you guys ginger DX if you use camera applications (like google goggles) and video (audio sync is solved). =)

battery life is good enough and its comparable to Froyobread. So far so good, as long as you stay away from using DSP Manager...but you may use built-in dsp processors in audio applications.

for the average user ginger dx 009 is worth the upgrade.

:)

cheers!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
Sure i've seen The Big Lebowski, good movie. But still...

Wait, is there a probably with audio sync in FroyoBread?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Sir_gpm:
Back to FB..I was using GingerDX but not alwasy the last OS is the best for your phone. I think in my config FB is has less lag than Ginger...but from time to time will get it better.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] AbirXtreme:
Honestly Saying,, Fryobread is more stable than GingerDx(i have even tried the latest v009,,) mayb experience differs because,, you arent really doing much in ur x8,, and lot of apps that fc's on gingerdx runs just fine on froyobread,, im just hoping a v010 will come which wil fix these problems,, and mayb than we can switch permanently to Gingerdx,, untill that time im going back to froyo
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Chris_Castro:
GingerDX

Now that DX is BACK, I'll wait for further development. Great News! :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
I don't think so. DX stopped the development until now, and clearly he is more into improving GINGERDX.

I think there is an issue in Froyo camera libs for X8. If so he needs to re-write the camera libs (as he already did in GingerDX) and that takes a lot of effort.

​
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
The only reason I see to "upgrade" to GingerDX would be to get the 'update to date' feeling. Like knowing you have the newest (or almost). Other than that there was more trouble and it didnt really seem faster.. So what if the video camera audio is a bit out of sync in FB, which i can't confirm, it still is a much smoother experience (FOR ME) with FroyoBread. Like i said - it's actually made for THIS phone and not 'tricked' into working on it, like Gingerbread.

Atleast that's how i believe it is?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
There is no such thing as an official, Sony Ericsson stock 2.2 ROM for the X8. Froyo itself its "forced" or "tricked" to run in the X8, so I see no difference in forcing 2.3 in the X8.

We all know $ony Eric$$on aftermarket $upport is B.S... They won't release updates just to make you buy a newer phone, even if the hardware is capable to run the newer releases.

Also, why would you base on feelings, man? The facts are that there are some bugs in GingexDX (and in Froyobread too). FB is a great rom too, but I could not stand having a poor camera and video sync.

I you are a camera user (pics and vidz), you like Google Goggles, and you use a built in equalizer different from DSP Manager, then GingerDX is a must!

If that is not your case (and I bet its not), then stay away from it until other issues are solved, like the Superuser permission for some apps.

;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mhyke13ph:
I usually buy Mid Range SE phones, but because of "Fragmentation" happening on Android Specially those 2010 Android Phones in General, Those Mid Range phones are having a hard time to get an Official release of 2.2 or 2.3 when there initial release was based on 1.5 or 1.6, because of Hardware limitations(well really depends on what they do to make it optimized on these Mid Range Phones), that's not only happening on SE, but every Phone manufacturer out there

HTC can't even bring 2.3 on their Original Desire, LG is Stuck to 2.2 up to now, Motorola Fragmented their Android Lineup to 2.1, 2.2 and only HighEnd wil get 2.3

but this year, everything have change on fragmentation, every manufacturer are forced to support their Phones upto 18months or atleast 2-3 Android Step up as long as the Hardware is capable to upgrade.

I have already bought an Xperia Arc, and it is the first time for me to buy such an High End phone(this is the most expensive SE phone i bought to date lol), but im still using my X8, my wife use it everytime.

and for me Froyobread will satisfy her needs. I will upgrade to GingerDX if it will be mature enough and stable enough. for now i'll stick to Froyobread ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
Interesting, that explains up to some extent why they are not pushing updates. Anyway you can't deny there i$ a marketing $trategy behind thi$ fragmentation, be$ide$ hardware limitation$. DX and the CM team has proven that the phone is capable to support decent 2.3 Gingerbread.

Honeycomb? no way... that's a real hardware limitation for X8.

:)

Anyway, all this community development around android is a +1 not only for android itself but for the android manufacturers too as long as they deliver hardware capable of handing multiple upgrades and code (OS) which is possible to improve by community developers.

Many users would love to buy a smartphone that has a great mod out there. like X8 now a days. :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
Released a new unofficial update for 023b. Latest update here.

cheers!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] doixanh:
Guys, there is no point in arguing about what is better, FB or GDX.

That's a matter of taste. Many people want bleeding-edge things, while others want stability. Choose what is most appropriate for you.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
Myeah, okay i guess you got a point.

Is the camera really worse in FroyoBread... Doixanh, can you confirm this?

Exactly, thanks :)

Thank you for that.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
Uhm, yeah, it sure seems like there's a problem with audio sync with the video recorder in FroyoBread... I had no idea..

Is there no way to fix this :(?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] haker007:
When I remove USB Cable, "USB Connected" screen stays on at it will not disappear unless I press the back key. When I use GingerDX everything is OK, but with FroyoBread I have this problem. Is anyone having the same problem?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
Doesnt enabling USB Debugging stop this?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] haker007:
It is the same, when I enable and when I disable USB Debugging. I installed Froyobread again but the problem stays.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
GingerDX v010 out there:

main improvement: fixed superuser bug. :)

some of you guys may wanna try it.

If you still want to keep Froyobread, you may want to try this update

;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] saturn3000:
For battery drain is better Floyo 0.30 or FroyoBread v023b?

GingerDX and kuyaDROID have a big battery consuption.

Thanks.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
Latest froyobread v023b is more battery friendly. :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] cola286:
From headache after headache, battery pull after battery pull, I can now say I have made the move safely back from GingerDx to Froyobread.

GingerDx was seriously frustrating, it would restart after boot non-stop - I could just leave the phone sitting there and it would keep boot-looping till the phone ran out of battery. I understand many people have made the change from Froyobread to GingerDx successfully, however I guess I was one the unlucky ones. No matter what I did - full wipe, wipe dalvik cache, format sd card, change governor, change theme, throwing it against a wall (actually didn't do this, but it was tempting :p) - nothing worked!

That's my reporting/rant over. However, this doesn't deter me from trying out later versions of GingerDx - once it's more mature. Atm, long live Froyobread! :D

please any one can remove lock-screen signature ??

if can please give me instruction or please mail/message me #please #pleae #plase

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
Yeah, well... froyobread does must of it all without issues. If you're like me, who doesn't need all the latest and coolest gingerbread features, then froyobread is perfectly fine!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Sir_gpm:
What are those features?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
I... don't know.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] nrgmaster:
You have a point!, I was using froyobread as my first ROM and it was a very good experience, but I wanted to "taste" the latest (gingerbread) so I made the switch to miniCm7, which was a good one, then tried DX, and it wasn`t mature enough for me so I had to switch back to miniCM7 latest version 2.0.6, which I don`t like as much as the 2.0.5a but now I'm stucked on it because now that I would like to go back to froyobread, I'm just too lazy to have to reinstall and configure everything again.

Well, I'll think about it and if I have nothing to do I may do it today :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] cola286:
Yea, it definitely is a shame because I did feel the smoothness of GingerDx, but the constant reboots and battery pulls forced me to go back to Froyobread. I tried to live with GingerDx but it was just too frustrating and unstable. Perhaps after a few more releases I would give it another shot but after the frustrating times I've had with GingerDx, atm I am slightly reluctant to make the switch anytime soon.

The only difference I noticed with GingerDx is it has profiles, a downloads folder, slighly faster/smoother scrolling, in-sync video recording. That's really about it.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] URINUDNK:
To my experience this varies too much in any rom to tell where it is best. Right now, as we speak, my phone (FB) runs very smooth but later on when i've had some apps opened, or something, it may get a little laggier.. Like i said, it just varies alot which it also did in GingerDX.. Atleast that's my experience with it.

Oh and btw, i've made my videos be in-sync by using LgCamera Pro instead.. I still use the regular camera app for pictures, though.

Laughable, man.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] cola286:
Why did you decide to go back to Froyobread?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
I think I got more battery life in FB.

Last night I got aprox 10% battery loss over night with 3g off in GingerDX.

I will evaluate my battery life in FB and also video sync using special apps (like lgcamerapro).

The downside is that I will miss googles goggles :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] albertiny87:
The battery in FB is normal, in GingerDX it's a big problem, very big.

I'm using lgcamera pro but still I'm getting audio lag for almost 1 second.

This is my video config using lgcamera pro:

audio codec:

AAC audio codec, 160kbps, 44100

video codec:

mp4, 1mbps, 30fps

Please share your video recording settings if you think you have a better sync.

would have got it if it had camera fixed. But i'll stick to gingerdx :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
Yes, we still have that issue in this ROM, and its a common bug in CM6-based ROMs running in X8. Some users of other CM6-based ROMs have reported improvements in the sync using other recording software (like lgcamera pro), but they do not give details about their configuration (audio and video settings in the software).

1 just managed to find 1 guy that claim to improve the sync using this config:

video codec: mp4, bit rate: 1mb, fps: 30, size: 640x480

audio codec: aac, rate: 160kbps, freq: 44100

I've tried this config myself but I still get 1 second lag in audio-video sync. The only improvement I could notice is great recording sound. xD

So, if anyone has managed to improve this, please share the info.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mimorqleko:
AAAAaaaaaaargh!

Tried smartass 002 module last night in Froyobread.

I copied the module to system/lib/modules/ and added this string to hw_config.sh:

# also for smartass
insmod /system/lib/modules/ax8_smartass.ko
[B][COLOR="Red"]echo "smartass" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor[/COLOR][/B]

...and rebooted the phone, of course.

I had a bad experience with it. The phone became laggy and the battery consumption was almost the same as without the module.

I would not recommend it, at least not in froyobread.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ithunter:
yes this is not required for fb it make laggy on messge typing and some time on scrolling
