[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
If you're just after the recovery with a stock kernel, check Chainfire thread here: flash the closest matching kernel. Will give root and CWM recovery, else flash a custom kernel.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1103399

Edit:

1. You can use Hellcat hc-kTool (free on market) to dump your current kernel as zImage directly to sdcard before flashing Chainfire kernel.

2. Once CF kernel and CWM recovery is installed, then use the tool to flash back your original kernel, but you will keep root and CWM recovery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad_Rick:
Ok I get it... so basically need to flash a kernel with CWM already embedded.

"CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEN_KJ3-v5.0-CWM5" should be a good choice since it´s not the same kernel as mine "BUKJ3" but it’s as close as it gets, right?

I have already rooted with DoomLords toolkit and I read that CF_root kernel also adds root, is that going to be a problem?

I also have mobile Odin installed, can I flash CF_root with it so the flash counter doesn’t increase?

Thanks for your help UpInTheAir !!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
No it wont be a problem flashing Cf-root

Yes you can flash with mobile Odin.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Should work, else try a custom kernel with CWM recovery.

Won't be a problem, as most custom kernels will auto root every time you flash them anyway.

According to Chainfire thread, it won't increase if zImage flashed through the installed CWM Manager app. So, can't see why the CF-root zImage would increase the counter with mobile Odin.

Best bet for longer term is to purchase a USB jig from Ebay and reset the counter that way. Much easier, and advantage to force phone into dl mode if your ever semi-bricked.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad_Rick:
Thanks veyka;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad_Rick:
Already bought a jig, but with new bootloader it won’t reset counter.

Ok, gona give it a try but to be honest I am shaking a little bit...

Thanks for all your support ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
You can flash the old bootloaders back, they work fine, I am still using them with the new 2.3.6 roms np!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad_Rick:
I was just locking in to that in Intratech´s page.

ok so... just flashed cf_root with Mobile odin and went as smooth as silk. I am probably going to keep CF´s kernel since everything seems to be working fine.

Doing nandroid backup right now ;)

Thank you for your help veyka and UpInTheAir !!

And also a great thanks to Chainfire for is great work!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
No worries.

Just another piece of advice. Do a little trading on EFS backup. Flashing has a minimal chance of corrupting this file and contains the phone IMEI. If this becomes corrupted, you won't be able to use the phone for anything other than an alarm clock, and can't be restored flashing through Odin or nan-droid.

There are backup tools on the market and XDA. I use Hellcat hc-kTool and also GSII Repair to backup to sdcard and for safe keeping copy on PC.

Happy flashing
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] veyka:
I agree, backup your EFS asap, I have had mine randomly corrupt on me, and I was very thankful for the backups, also make sure to take a copy of the EFS backup off device.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mad_Rick:
Done!! Just did backup with EFS PRO v1.2.6(thanks lyriquidperfection) , looks like Ktool has a bug with the lock screen;)

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucasiumej:
i haven't found anything about the x8
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
And chances are that you won't find a tutorial about how to cook a ROM for the X8.

In theory you have all the information you're possibly looking for around in the General Android Forums section as well as in the Chef section.

To build from scratch you need the Android SDK/NDK, the Android source code (you're most likely looking for the CM7 git sources), a kitchen, maybe Eclipse (the Integrated Development Environment) and a whole lot of coding experience to tackle the task. EDIT: You also need: A computer featuring a CPU supporting 64-Bit, a 64-Bit Linux distro (i.e. Ubuntu or Linux Mint in their x86_64 edition) and AT LEAST 8GB RAM to successfully compile Gingerbread/ICS.

The easier task might be to mod a existing ROM (of course ONLY with the express permission of the author of the ROM as well as of all other developers whose modules you are using), but even this requires a solid knowledge about what you're doing.

Oh, and you also need a phone where you can test out your ROM creation (just because it works in the SDK Emulator does not mean it works on the real device), and you need to be able pull your phone back out of "bad flash" in case your ROM or Kernel creation bricked your phone.

In short, the answer to your question is nothing more than reading up on lots of stuff and adapting things to the specifics of the X8 and porting a whole lot of stuff to make it work with the X8 (you know, the vanilla AOSP sources don't come with X8 drivers to support camera and so on).
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eagleeyetom:
As B.Jay said :) You need a looooooooooooooooooot of patience because every time something will go wrong. Also you must know how to analyze logs from terminal. It's really complicated stuff.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B.Jay:
LOL...

Yeah, welcome to the fabulous world of open source software where there are always surprises upon invoking "make" :rolleyes: ;)

Can you still get HTC updates even with S-off, but with stock rom installed?

Or can HTC detect S-off and will not update?

Yes, as long as you don't install a custom recovery.
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
And if you do have a custom recovery, don't fret.

A short time after the OTA comes out it'll be available for download so you can install via ClockworkMod. That's the power of XDA
[HTC Sensation] j_tan168:
You have any idea when OTA comes out?

There is this which states that we should get it in January. My guess they may start a rollout in the middle of February.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alexanderbooth:
Having slight issues with my note on vodafone Uk, whenever I try to browse the internet and the 3g sign in status bar shows weboages don't load at all, when the H is showing bam they load really fast, and even when the E is showing they load but slowly, which is to be expected with edge. So why wouldn't it be loading when on 3g? Have I got some setting wrong on the phone?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:
HSDPA is faster than 3G.

3G (3rd Generation of Telecommunication Standards) is a standard of cellular connectivity which allows for speeds of up to 384 Kb/s downstream and 64 Kb/s upstream. 3G HSDPA is a 3G enhancement. HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) is a new mobile data protocol and is sometimes referred to as a 3.5G. Theoretically, HSDPA speeds can reach 3.6 Mbps downstream and 348 Kbps upstream. But the purpose of putting both on a smartphones is to make sure that your phone get internet access even when the other one is not available or have no access
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Richy99:

Yeah they seems to think my sim card needed resetting, but hasn't made a difference, still does it.

The other weird thing is if its stuck on 3g and not loading I usually disable data on power button menu then er enable and H usually comes back and it works again, even if I turn it to GSM only in network setting, so Edge is only possible it works fine also just takes ages to load any pages which is annoying!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] graemeg:
if youre in the uk and only getting edge or gprs it may not be the phones fault.

I had a similar issue, we all assume we can get full 3G everywhere, not necessarily.

To solve this you need to buy the Vodafone sure signal box, it basically plugs into your home broadband router and then transmits full 3g around your house to whatever numbers you register on the box, including dongles.

The whole family can use it as you can register 32 numbers into it.

Cost about £50 new, i have a BNIB never been used or taken out of the box new one here, up for sale as it happens for £25.

Anyone interested should PM me....

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alexanderbooth:
As I said sorted the issue it had something to do with the phone locking into search for hspa, and not reverting back to 3g when there wasn't any hspa signal. Apparently its a problem Samsung are working on. But the little fix of only scanning for 3g works for now, and I did a bandwidth test on hepatitis, and 3g, and 3g was actually faster. So not bothered.
