[XPERIA X8 Android Development] jhongalvan:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] BohArie:
why they say in http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_xperia_x8-3403.php it up to 16gb?

Hi xperiafan 13 where are you we need your roms like gingerxperia.Gingerxperia were one of the best rom ever for me,and had excellent performamce.I think all will be happy when the gingerxperia rise from the ashes.This rom were fast only need to add new andreo libs some tweaks and the rom will be fly fast and high.

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
Yesterdey i flashed this rom, i didnt get a bootloop but something similar, the sony ericcsson logo started, then disapeared, and the screen turned black with no boot animation, i waited about 5 min, then the phone rebooted itself, and did the same thing, i dont know what i am doing wrong, i full wiped. i always do.. if someone had this similar problem please tell me how to fix it.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Cancar96:
Install using xrecovery
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
forgot to mention that i flashed using CWM, but the OP said that it needed to be flashed using that one so i thought the problem was something else, going to give it a go with xrecovery and see if that works, thanks for the tip.

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] DJ_Mike_Jams:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
I'm wondering too. Such a great rom. Only the 2d/scrolling needs to be tweaked and it would be perfect. Had a hard time making play store download anything. Is it a bug?

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Blooddread:
awesome but..

the rom is freakin awesome the best i have ever tried with good ram and fast performance the only problem i get is that it reboots when my screen locks when im on wifi..:/:(
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
Never experienced that. Are you on stock kernel? If you are, try reflashing and wiping (everything). If that doesn't work, redownload and try again.

Did you add any tweaks?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Blooddread:
yes i am on stock,did all of that i even tried reformating my SD since it also gets error before,i did not add anything,this also happens on other roms.:/
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
I didnt notice the v5 upload maybe the OP forgot to change the date? The v5. Was uploaded just a few days ago right?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Mayank77:
Can someone please tell me about the battery life of the stock version of this ROM..especially for v5.

I have never used this ROM before and wish to switch over to it. Was concerned about the battery drain. :o

Thanks

Should I install it via Xrecovery only ?

I think one member got a bootloop when trying to install via CWM before..

Or would flashing via both recoveries work ?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
for me it worked via x-recovery, with CWM i got a boot loop, and yes i full-wiped and all that stuff, i tried 2 times, then someone suggested to flash it via x-recovery and it worked! no bugs so far, only radio FM, but that is the same with almost all roms.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
i tested v5 and got bootloops on both CWM and X-recovery, is anyone else having this problem?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Cancar96:
going to test tomorrow.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
Lukenda, please an AnTuTu when u have the time ?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Mayank77:
Hi , I enabled autobrightness via Notification power window in the status bar after I flashed v5.

Then , I rebooted my phone. Since then , I can not turn off autobrightness

In the notification power window , I can toggle to brightness other modes , but autobrightness wont turn off..

The option to turn it off in Settings--> Display --> Brightness has also vanished.

Any help ?:confused:
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
downloaded and flashed just now. it took a long time (v5) on the se logo i thought i got a brick, but then rc1 boot animation showed up. first try is taking a long time so i to decided to reboot and try again. does it really take soooo long to leave the se logo?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
you hace cypress as well, right?

Can you post an Antutu pls?

stock, @600?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Mayank77:
Startup time is very very much :(
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Cancar96:
Great rom,he managed to improve libs for 3d!

Stock kernel
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
Are you experiencing long boot time as well?

@elderduke: i'll post antutu maybe tomorrow. Changed roms as the boot time im experiencing is too much for me... :(

But all in all aftee using it for about 2hrs, it seems a lot smoother than v4. Faster, too. Is this cm 7.2?

Edit: changelog says latest cm7 so i'm guessing it is? :p
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
great feedback guys, but please tell me, have you flashed with CWM or X-rec? cause i want to try it but im tired of bootloops haha :D
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
Both. I think, if you full wipe before flashing, you won't get bootloops. It's just that it takes a really really long time to get past the se screen that you think you have a softbrick/bootloop. Well, that's what happened in my case. Already had flashtool up after turning the pc on. It's that long. :(

Edit: just to clarify, i used xrecov first. Long boot time so i tried wiping and flashing again using cwm. Same thing.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Cancar96:
Booting time is 2min

Ring lock has bugs
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
How did you get that score :eek:

No user apps + tweaks?

I'm starting to think you and elderduke make hardware mods on your x8's. I can't seem to match your scores on any rom.

Edit: mine took more than 2mins from when my phone vibrates when turning on. :(
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Cancar96:
No i havent ,try the rom.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
is just the hardware version, I guess....but also the downside is on other Roms, like GDX, my device moves like crap. I only have 280 in 2d, for example, while others have 420....

Boot time very long...what is the option "Bootloader" in reboot? Never seen it before.

So far it moves quite fast....overall impression is great.

Nicely done job, great rom.

SU must be updated to 3.1.1.

Also, for the cypress users, the ax8mt. module is old....the one of 4 kb. So, the new one of 101 kb must be replaced instead for easy pullup of status bar.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
Same impression. Good thing i have the latest ax8mt handy. How long is your boot time? Hopefully i'll get better results (boot time) when i redownload and flash tomorrow.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
my 2d: 282 :( Boot about 3 min.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
About the same. Average 2d, but i tried @600 with all my apps installed and using DX's oc module (which apparently undervolts below 691). Will try again tom. Thanks again elderduke. You should be more active. Haven't seen you around in a while. :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
Flashed a while ago wiht X-rec, boot time 2:30 min, aprox. so far no bugs, a noticeable improvement in scrolling and response overall, very good work by the developer, and great feedback guys! keep up the good work!
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
Anyone have an,idea why it takes so long? I've tried checking but i don't know enough...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
maybe odex. In my experience odexed roms behave like this.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
Isn't odex supposed to lessen boot time? I've tried a couple of odexed roms (and odexed some roms that aren't yet), and they didn't take as long.... oh well, gonna try again asap. Hope i get better results.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
yes, that's it. Apk's inside archive are odexed.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Cancar96:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Fortun:
How come this ROM is in the XPERIA X8 Original Android Development forum and something like FroyoBread isn't?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
this rom is built from cyanogenmod sources, not from other rom like minicm, thats why is in original development, i don't know about froyobread, but i think froyopro was a continuation of the project, and froyopro is on the second page.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Fortun:
It's clearly stated that this ROM is based on the sources of cm7...

... and KuyaDROID v4.7.

And as cascabel is pointing out, post #3 clearly states that this ROM is a converted MiniCM7
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
Didn't the op mention this is built from minicm (3rd post)? :confused:

And let's not discuss other roms here as respect for the dev. :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Steven87:
"The work is based on the sources of cm7 and KuyaDROID v4.7"

this says on the OP, but i don't know... i think the one who doubts has to ask a moderator not in this thread.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Fortun:
I came here searching for FroyoBread and it wasn't in the Original Android Development... Frustrating. FroyoPro has been moved long before.

Anyway, to keep it from being so off-topic (kinda), the ROM being odexed can't affect first boot time negatively. Since nothing is being constructed in the Dalvik cache it can only speed things up during the first boot.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cascabel:
That's what i thought,

Any ideas why the boot time takes so long?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Fortun:
I had to download the zip to see what the culprit might be.

My first guess is that some lib file is acting up. Keep in mind that this ROM is really messy as you'll see, finding the culprit might prove too time consuming. Before messing with the libs you could try a few things.

I'd do the next changes directly in the zip ROM in order and one at a time:

· In /system/bin/ add the .prop extension to the file build (why doesn't it have it?)

· Copy the now called build.prop file to /system/

· In /system/etc/init.d/ delete all of these files: 07sdcardtune, 08ocfreq, 12compcache, 16taskkiller, 21Extras, 30smoothness and 60lagfix. If this solves it you can try putting them one by one*

· In /system/lib/egl / change libGLES_android.so with the same file from another ROM (most of them for stock use exactly the same one)

*The file 21Extras is doing absolutely nothing there since it's missing the first line #!/system/bin/sh . However because of this the system might be having problems with it, tho it should be just ignored. Next the files 30smoothness and 60lagfix are at best redundant and at worst conflicting with each other.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Mayank77:

Anyone tried v6 yet? My net connection is really slow so i'll dl it tomorrow.

@Fortun: tried your suggestions but didn't delete all of them (ie: 60lagfix). The scrolling is not as smooth now BUT my 2d and 3d scores went up considerably, and i feel it's snappier now. Thought I'd give you feedback. :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
Yes, is pretty much the same performance, only that the FC issues are removed (in V5 I had FC with : screenshot, video, terminal)....also Terminal emulator disappeared. 3d gallery is added. I did not try Fortun's advice yet, I will when I have some time.

@ Fortun: how's your gaming in this one? I did not try yet....

---------- Post added at 09:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

ohh okay stupid me for not looking.:P
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
yeap, happened to me 2 in V5, I had to use x8toolbox to reinstall recovery.

Finally when I tried to go to V6 I had to use SEUS and root again...did not try yet in V6, because now I am using Fortun's advice and settings for this Rom.

First reboot: significantly improved time. Reeaaaaly great time.

I will test some more later, just I have in mind so far AnTuTu results were about 1500 with 2d: 280 and 3d: 560.

I will test shortly see if improved.

edit: No changes in antutu score....yet...same results on my device.

Cheers,
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] IdeosDev:
Any feedback regarding stock kernel activity over this V6 Update?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
about same as V5, some issues solved and added Gallery. i wrote a few posts back. You should follow Fortun's guide to shorten boot time....
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] elderduke:
Great 3d score, is like CM7 on steroids ;) 3d is between 560-570 which is impossible on other Roms on stock, maybe only on custom Kernel.
