I think my X8 is getting better now! Not so battery-draining anymore, better than few days ago and the battery doesn't feel warm. But still more battery consume..

Maybe I should put the phone in my refrigerator so there will be no more battery draining issue :D lol

Try to keep testing this ROM because I love its speed, no lag when I press the dialler application :)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OOT:

Anyway I'm getting bored with my X8 and thinking to sell mine and get another device.. I'm currently interested to buy a Nokia N96 (yes, that old Nokia :D), what do you think about N96 compared to our lovely X8? 16GB memory, great 5MP camera, GPS, a bunch of cool features, and that bullet-proofed Nokia brand.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] daddy_rhon:
i think symbian is much boring than android,if you really bored to you x8,buy higher phone rather that back to the old days,because we all know symbian is going down while android going higher & higher...As we can see android phone is not only a phone...It is also a powerful tools of pc get a connection to internet...If you get what i mean...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rly:
Yeah, I know. Android is great, I know that.. but they're not optimal, the system is quite heavy. iOS is much better in term of user experience and satisfaction but honestly I can't afford them :D

I have using smartphone since 2004 (Nokia 3650 >> Nokia 3230 + PDA HP RX3700 >> BenQ P50 >> Motorola Q9h >> Xperia X8), and I have using internet on my phone since WAP era lol :D

What else of phone could you reccomend for stability, efficiency, and satisfaction in low-end range phone? ;) *I'm using my X8 as my prime communication, internet device and GPS.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] NIMBAH:
Symbian is terrible!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] junnojules:
Not the right thread to compare/talk about symbian to android :confused:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rly:
Not that terrible, especially when u looking for a simple efficient smartphone. The 16GB + good music n camera quality pretty enough to entertain my day :)

The HTC Diamond maybe another good choice.. 480x640 @2,8inch which is almost "retina display", 4GB internal, 5MP camera, and a stylish nicely built device :)

Lol, too OOT, I'll stop this topic right here :D

Sorry for my silly thought :P

Sorry about that, just my silly daydream :P

Can't connect to Eduroam network

First, thanks @lrakkarl for his awesome work!

I'm just posting to say that I haven't been able to connect to the Eduroam network of my university. I've got the Alfs_v08a kernel and FroyoPro 2.5, and both were supposed to support Eduroam networks.

Before someone asks it: yes, I've set it up correctly (with the right certificate and so), but it's not connecting anyway. It gets stuck on "Authentificating..." or in "Establishing...".

I was just wondering if someone else has this problem, or if someone has connected to one of these networks.

Thanks in advance!

P.D.: I was able to connect with GingerDX (v023 or v024, I don't remember) and the same wpa_supplicant file, which is used in this ROM.

There is some fix mentioned in the second post. U have to flash a fix for it...

Here is the link... http://www.gnuyork.org/en/eduroam-android-2-3.html
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
That site is actually mirroring eagleeyetom's EduRoam Fix in a non-CWM ZIP-repack without giving credits.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] soumyasree:
Sorry i didnt know...

I just mentioned link mentioned in the OP:(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] GaBOr1:
Yes, that's it. Actually, the file in that webpage is the one that is in the ROM and in the kernel. So, let's say I've already tested it :P
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] lrakkarl:
I use "AndroSS" at 90%. Shake to take.

Interesting, I unfortunately cannot test this have you tried the other wpa-supplicants or just the one that comes in 2.5?

edit: Reading this thread, I can see that you have already tested them all. I might go digging for problems in another file.

The way I read this thread was that ex-xda member "holgerg123" actually created this fix? eagleeyetom just created cwm.zips? I just linked to where I got the file from ie. credits. If I am incorrect then I will add the appropriate credits-please ask eagleeyetom to clarify.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] GaBOr1:
Actually, I tested them all previously, but when I had GingerDX installed on my X8.

The only thing i can do for helping you is testing and testing. This is a feedback similar to the one on that thread:

Version 1: you know. It connects to wireless networks, but not to Eduroam networks.

Version 2: I got 'Error' in my Wi-Fi settings.

Version 3: I got 'Error' in my Wi-Fi settings.

Version 4: this connected to my personal network but, obviously, I couldn't test it with an Eduroam network as we are on Saturday. Anyway, this one seems to be the old wpa_supplicant file, so I don't think it would connect.

As you see, it is a bit different from the previous time with GingerDX.

What I'm going to do now is copying wpa_supplicant, wpa_cli, wlan_cu and wlan_loader from GingerDX, just in case it connects to the Eduroam network. It seems to connect without problem to my home wireless.

If I can help you in some way, just tell me (but not in weekends, as I will not go to university those days). =)

Sounds great mate, thank you in advance. Let me know how it goes after you have had time to test it, if good/not good, we will go from there. As I mentioned previously I cannot test this so it would be great if you get it working or if we get it working together. Either way let me know how you go.

I'm going to install your ROM But only a question.

How to disable app2sd script in this ROM?

I don't like it because it sends all my apps automatically to ext4.

I prefer to use Link2sd.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] GaBOr1:
Well... it seems like there are some bad news. I couldn't connect to the Eduroam network although I tried to use the GingerDX files. Actually, I didn't have a long time to try it, but it was enough to see that it wouldn't connect.

Any suggestions I could try?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] bayumahendra24:
As far as i know, on this rom you can choose where to instal (internal or sd), on each app installing...

See attached screensht
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] lrakkarl:
Already have done some work on version 2.6. Some small but nice improvements. Wanting to get Eduroam connections fixed for the next release so hope to get a few more testers.

No one else has this problem, maybe you got a bad download? Try checking the checksum of your download.

You can either open up the zip and remove "10apps2sd" from system/etc/init.d or to easily disable apps2sd flash the attached "x8FPNoapps2sd.zip" straight after flashing the ROM.

Thank you for testing I have a few ideas including proper fixes and not proper fixes/workarounds. I will send you a PM.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] elderduke:
yes yes.

I have got similar results, for the 2d: 679. (that is my maximum).

So, this is why I consider this rom really the stock replacement rom, since it can score higher than stock (considering only 2d and 3d results).

Great rom,

One thing: I messed up too much I guess with the settings in Zeam launcher, and the other settings as well, and on top of it I installed the froyo lockscreen. Result was a bit of delay in response in back button and also in menu button .

All solved easily by full wipe, or reinstalling the rom.

@ lrakkarl: can I ask 2 things?

- Any chance we can get also "xperia s" type lockscreen?

- sports mode in camera.

Hi, bro!

I just wondered if you have achieved something with that Eduroam thing. I think I sent you the 'dmesg' and 'logcat' outputs of my mobile, but as I don't have any sent messages in my outbox, I don't know if you've received them (I think you did).

I'm afraid I will have to change ROM if we don't find any fix to it, as I need it when I am at university. :/

I'll still be waiting for news some more time, and as I told you by PM, I will get 'dmesg' and 'logcat' outputs using the default files.

I understand not too many people are affected by this bug, so don't worry if you are not interested on it or something like that =)

Hope you are having a great time!

One thing though, if many apps running in background, sometimes the phone freezes in taking 2-3 pictures.

If you kill all apps, (I use ES task manager) then everything is great and smooth.

Some tips:

* Free some space on your phone!

* Use Apps2EXT - to do that, you need to partition your SD card (search xda)

* Download some tool from market to clear your cache, I don't remember the name, but just search something like "Cache Cleaner"

I spent a big part of today testing out combinations of roms and kernels, and this one is deffo one of the best, if not THE best rom out there right now. It's both stable, reliable, insanely fast and smooth AND good looking.

Is there any way to fix auto brightness? Video sync is fixed simply by using lgcamera (if anyone is interested), if there's a way to fix auto brightness than this rom gets 10 out of 10.

launcher

Status bar transparency: set to Gradient: for some reason, in Zeam launcher , home screen, allways shown as solid, even if in other places is transparent.

I guess this is given by Zeam Launcher.

And once you replace the Launcher the problem is solved.

Try Nemus launcher. I installed it and it has all the great features, including Landscape and also hide the Status bar by gesture.

Not to mention transparency that works.

Also, when showing app. you can see running app, and manage app.

In terms of speed, seems a bit improved.??

One in one it looks like added value to this Rom.

If you mean ram manager by task killer, then it's no point of it! Android manages memory by itself. For example, when you open Angry Birds all unneeded tasks get killed anyway.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] elderduke:
I am not concerned about RAM.

You know, when running an .apk, phone is "releasing" ram for it.

As a proof, if you use a manager, like ES task manager for example, after closing an app. you will get 80-90 free RAM without modifying settings, while normally you should be somewhere in the range of 60-70 free RAM.
