how to update to the latest version of this rom'? coz my wife has X8 and i was about to update her phone with this newly updated rom.. her's was GingerDX v10.. what do i need to wipe b4 updating'? how about the user apps'? will it be all erase'? tips please :)

and how was the battery life with v13'? coz her battery drains too damn fast..
[XPERIA X8 General] chal61:
Battery life depends a lot on your settings.

With 3g data, bluetooth and gps disabled, wifi enabled my phone battery is still 51% after 40hrs with a couple of phone calls and sms.

I updated since v10 without any wipe (had to do a full wipe when switched from Eclair to GingedDX). No apps were lost (installed a few: goggles, barnacle, sygic...)
[XPERIA X8 General] crashzieg25:
thanks so much..

Since first reporting this bug, I have managed to track it down to Chainfire 3D, so it's not really GingerDX related. You can remove it from the active bug list.

This was the deal-breaker for me with GingerDX, it made it impossible to play DoodleJump. The lag is more pronounced when tilting the phone to the left side and back to center than it is when tilting right. This bug was present on all the GingerDX builds I tried (upto and including v013).

This only happens if you move one of those apps to SD card storage. As long the app remains in phone memory, syncing works normally.
[XPERIA X8 General] zytres:
Please Fix

The calculator doesn't work correctly.

wifi signal not displayed correctly on status bar.

when using a static ip and then changing to automatic ip it will remain the same. i had to reboot the device to apply the changes correctly.

Sometimes when i take a picture the screen becomes black and i have to fc the camera.

I also feel v13 a little laggy :/.

Sorry for my bad english. Please fix it :(

[XPERIA X8 General] not_you:
It's a great ROM thanks to DX! The only thing is accelerometer bug.. It works perfect after reboot but then becomes laggy and after a while it almost not possible to play the games and even in menu delays are really big.. I don't know why it happens, maybe it caused by one application (It happens even in clear installation of GDX)? btw in froyobread accelerometer works fine without any issues. It would be great if DX will be able to fix it.
[XPERIA X8 General] jkrauser2:
I applied the fix for accelerometer. and the bug's still there..

I played HomerunBattle3D = it's good. I tested tilting in Gallery3D = it's good. Maps = kinda laggy. NFS Shift = oh fcuk! it gave me headache.

Still, have to reboot to make it good again.

EDIT:how about porting X10 GB sensor lib to X8?
[XPERIA X8 General] m2020eg:
V0.15

good work and thanks in advance

if i installed v0.15 without the kernel do i get the WiFi to work or i wait until it fixed cause i`m alive on my WiFi.

BTW i`m still on the stock ROM and i`m feed from the low memory so going out of the box to the GingerDX world.

[XPERIA X8 General] CKal:
I saw around the forums that there are some people experiencing rebooting problems when mounting USB storage, and I am one of those who have this problem.

For your information, I'm on GingerDX v015.

I don't see this problem addressed in this thread. And I have somehow solved my problem, so I decided to post how I solved it:

Install HAKA's GingerFroyo (which was the ROM I had before I switched to GingerDX) using xRecovery's "Advanced restore -> restore system" option.

Re-flashed the GingerDX's ROM, then the phone hotfix, then the modules for stock kernel.

I do not know which step was the critical one. I am here speaking mainly from my experience and hope that this can provide some sort of help.

Battery drain and some lag

hello all

I've successfully installed the V15 ROM everything was working fine, But i noticed something about the Battery it doesn't last too long "maybe cause i just bought the Phone and i am using it all the time on Wireless installing and exploring it?", the thing is when i installed the GO Launcher and i explore the apps menu it has 3 options "All/Recent/Running" every time i show the running apps it shows me Apps that running and i never opened it and when i press close all running Apps they Disappear from the menu and free some RAM, but after while i see them starting again, sometimes not the same opened Apps that run by themselves..

so in Another words " the Apps start automatically by themselves as i never started them"

maybe this is the cause of the battery drain? and sure if those Apps use too much RAM they will cause lags.

i hope someone install GO Launcher and check if he has same problems as mine

Edit: before you tell me the usual answer "try full wipe" i did already tried full wipe and format SD and installed everything from scratch and got same error

thanks in Advance and best regards
[XPERIA X8 General] Dare-Devil Inside:
You just bought the phone?

Hmm.. first learn how Android works second did you flashed moudules for v15?

Yes i just bought the phone and yes i flashed v015 Phone hotfix & "Modules for stock kernel"

[XPERIA X8 General] Dare-Devil Inside:
You should try an another ROM or maybe an another version of GDX.

v15 apperars to be laggy a little bit.
[XPERIA X8 General] LeFeverts:
Hm. Im using v014 and i satisfied with it. Smooth fast and dont eat too much RAM. Usually i have 44-79 ram on free. It dont have too much bugs what i explored. Only the wifi has an annoying one. If the list full with hosts it cannot connect to a new one.

So if you want a good version from GDX i suggest it.

Agree with the above. V014 has been the best for me. Installed and ran without issue once i'd cleared battery stats ...

Hello, all! I want to report for a problem of GingerDX with my phone. All versions after 004 I have tried I got the same problem: restarts. First I thought these are randoms, but soon I figured out that it happens when I turn on mobile data internet and device switch to EDGE I got restart! I tried everything, LinuxDX kernel - same problem, latest ver: v015 - same problem. Get the phone back to stock kernel and stock ROM then rooted again and installed fresh version of v015 (both kernels - stock and LinuxDX) - same restart. I discovered it when I reinstall ROM and then phone ask you for your google account and as soon as you log in, it begins to download data from internet to sync. First 1-2 sec when the E(DGE) icon (the place I spend almost all day has a little bad connection so its EDGE) on the status bar blinks: TADA! Restart. Sometimes when it restart I don't even have time to turn the mobile data connection off before it restarts again :/

Anybody have this problem?

Sorry for my english!
[XPERIA X8 General] terracuk:
I installed V014 from stock 2.1 elair. I did a full wipe and cleared dalvik cache. After switching off all data services, gps, wifi I still had a serious battery drain. Phone wouldnt last for more than 8hrs without a charge. I charged to 100% then booted to xrecovery and cleared the battery stats, phone was back at 95% charge so I charged to 100% again and my battery then lasted 5 days!. It has been good ever since.
[XPERIA X8 General] Dexter_prog:
The only way you can get it to last 5 days is not having any app running services installed and not using your phone AT ALL for those 5 days.
[XPERIA X8 General] terracuk:
I beg to differ...

light use I admit.. Sms, music player every day for around 40-60mins, a cpl of calls, airplane mode at night..
[XPERIA X8 General] LeFeverts:

But the 5day last is sounds a bit irreal. But will try. Running apps are seriusly drain battery. But with a task killer you can manage it.

Problem with app2SD

Hello everyone...

I have a little problem, I'm running GDX v15 and I can't move applications to my SD card, every time I try it says "Failed to move application"

I have tried all things I could think of: created an ext3 partition, full wipe and flashed the ROM again, intalled app2sd (even though I know it comes with the ROM) but nothing seems to work. I read that it should work even with no partition.

Can anyone please help me?
[XPERIA X8 General] sapabg:
my SD card is with only one partition and I have no probs...haven't installed anything but the rom and it's peachy...you that some apps can not be moved so watch out for those :)
[XPERIA X8 General] wizard.:
So probably my problem is not in the Busybox ver. Because I have the same as you. And I guess u don't have restarts of the phone as I do... :(

The only version I did not had problem is 004. I even tried it now after I got problems with other versions I restored some old bacup with 004 and it does not restarts.... I really don't have idea what to do. Made install, full wipe again, used LinuxDX same problem with it... Im really out of ideas.

If some one have any (even not logical) suggestions let me know!

Thanks in advance!

Mic gain problem way to low...

Hello

First 10x to all the developers bless you.

got my x8 with stock 2.1 record some videos and voice and was very happy overall the mic gain was good and clear and pic was good,

Then install Gingerdx record some videos and voice and notise that the mic

gain volume are way lower then the stock 2.1 and video not as smooth like stock 2.1 , to me its BIG problem..... did someone else notise it?

p.s new phone didnt fell if i reverse to stock 2.1 mic gain normal
[XPERIA X8 General] terracuk:
No I dont have restarts. I use Xperia Active Launcher and not the LP(?) that comes with GingerDX if that makes a difference?! I came from stock 2.1 with dual recovery installed using x8toolbox. The first version I flashed to my phone was V013, then updated to V014 and now V0.17

Is there a particular app that you run on a daily basis that may be causing a problem? Or does it keep restarting even from a fresh boot?
[XPERIA X8 General] wizard.:
@terracuk and @RohinZaraki

I have tried reflashing original firmware & ROM with flashtool and I still got the problem. Interesting is that I had the same problem on Floyo's releases. Then till version 004 of GDX no problem at all, and when one day I updated (using update didn't used full wipe). Then the problems with restarts appeared. After that I tried lots of "begin form zero" tries and noone succeeded... :(

[XPERIA X8 General] terracuk:
I'm puzzled too. Can you do a logcat and read with adb and keep a log of what is going on when your system reboots? It might help figure out what is trying to run or failing when your x8 restarts.

[XPERIA X8 General] wizard.:
Hello,

I will try the log next time if it happens, for now it's ok. I used SEUS, then ROOT with SuperOneClick, then Busybox from market (ver. 1.19.0). Then installed xRecovery as apk file, after that I had an old backup of 004 GDX, restord it, and then via CWM installed the last version (017). For now it's stable, no reboots for 18h 07min. And I'm using mobiledata nonstop.

Thanks for advices, I will report for further problems or stuff.

does anyone have root issues with the last kernel and v17....FC or something?
[XPERIA X8 General] javierock:
I'm honest, i don't have read all the 33 pages, just the first one and there isnt this issue.

The Camera produces FC when press the touch screen shooter. That does not happen in video mode.

So, for avoid that, the photo should be take by pressing the camera button under volume controls.

I'm using GingerDX v017.

Solved. The "problem" happened when i was charging my phone via USB, SDCARD no storage mode, just charging and i tried to take a photo. That persists with NO USB Mode until reboot my phone and the issue goes.
