Hey!

This is the time for my farewell message. I had great time in this community. I want to thank to all dev to make the x8 to a great device. I'm very happy that i was able to use Kuyagol's, Rieken Yuki's DX's and nAa's rom. They are the devs!

And i want to thanks to pilu1978 for his guide and everything!

I hope the x8 community will live forever;)

Best regards;)
[XPERIA X8 General] dimitrisioa:
Hey guys how are you? . Well my beloved x8 is now too old to carry me on (got some annoying black screen problems and it seems to be hardware damage)so i am going to replace it with a Samsung galaxy note 2 I was saving moneys from my job half year and now i am ready for this big change . Thanks all the community for the support and also special thanks to all developers(can't remember all of them) that helped us and made this phone a beast for his categorie. I won't stop visiting this community because x8 was my 1st smartphone and I learned a lot from you guys.! Best regards to this helpful community!
[XPERIA X8 General] stamatis:
Bye dimitri, enjoy your new phone;)
[XPERIA X8 General] catlog:
Goodbye to everyone who is leaving. I will still be here every once in a while, too busy spending time with my nexus although it's fun to play on the x8 once in a while.
[XPERIA X8 General] Asycid:
If everything goes right, I will be a proud owner of a new Xperia U in about a week, and thus, I will ditch my x8 (ok, probably I will just give it to my brother). Until then I will stalk more in here, the X8 forums :D

BTW It's almost 2 years old now (my phone, not my bro :) ), and there is no any scrach on it. Just used a simple GOLLA case and it kept the beauty like it's new. I love my X8, but sometimes it's just better to go on. Be good people, and continue supporting the developers!

Thank you doixanh, nobodyatall, alfsamsung, eagleeyetom, djnilse, bpaul, kuyagaol, andyx, racht, blagus, and all the other developers and themers here on X8 forum. Without you guys, I've never learned the basics of Android.

Thank you again.

Goodbye will come when the "U" will be in my hand. :)
[XPERIA X8 General] HashyCode:
Hello guys. I'm Vince. ( friends calls me hashy )

Everyone knows that im the developer of the GingerSony. I'm tired of everybody. Some of people out there are talking bad about me in Facebook/in XDA/. Even in PM.

Like I'm a selfish developer. Bla bla bla bla and bla. I'm gonna stop all of my work in XDA. I will delete this account once i deleted all my threads everywhere.

There are many great developers. Like nAa, eagleeyetom, Daveee. i really wanna thankful this developers to make our X8 alive :)

I really enjoy in xda. Thanks to X8 users to giving me support. Really appreciate it. And please. Don't make this Xperia X8 section goesdown.

See you guys then,

Takecare

Vince/Hashy
[XPERIA X8 General] dagger:
Goodbye man...:(..
[XPERIA X8 General] stamatis:
Goodbye Vince, if you have taken your decision then you are free to go, but i want to give you an advice, don't take in consideration this bad attitudes too much, if every member who is doing some work for xda cared for the haters there would be no develpment available for any device. Its very logical to there are people who dont like you or your work, even in your real life, what will you do then? Are you always going to quit?

I see no reason for deleting your account and threads but if its your final decision...

Goodbye, i hope you will change your mind soon;)

[XPERIA X8 General] geleroff:
2 years ago i bought an xperia X8 first hand, it was my first android device.

It was nice, but i didn't like the UI and some of the features were lackluster when compared to my brother's LG optimus one.

So i started looking for a way to get multitouch on my device, mostly for GBA emulators and some other functionalities like pinch to zoom.

As i can speak English super well i started to search for information in English, mostly because the info in my native language consists mostly of google translate... and i ended up here.

I lurked around the forums until i found froyobread... after a few weeks DX launched GingerDx, but i waited until a few versions came out to make the transition.

i still have my xperia X8 working like a charm, running the stock kernel and Ginger DX v.21.

To be honest i never really found all the usefulness of the custom kernels, but i was around here when we all see the joy of listening that the devs cracked it.

It is a good phone, but thanks to the multiple devs here you made of my phone an awesome phone.

Thanks.

(I am moving to another device mostly because i was able to get a second hand device (actually almost new, since i had the pleasure to peel the cover from the screen) for a super cheap price.
[XPERIA X8 General] Stek988:
Leavin with a faint pain in the heart. It is not bc of the x8, but bc the most greatest community i have ever seen. The number of devs, ppl who tested, who were always friendly and tried their best... That is my reason why i am sad leaving my x8. And I will now always compare new devices and forums wit this one because of the impression it left! Peace!! :):D

hi

xperia x8 was my first android mobile, i used almost three years. after buying this phone i have rooted and unlocked the bootloader after two years.after that i have installed every rom from x8 forum.really i was addicted to installing custom roms. everyday i visit the forum and searching for new custom roms.finally i installed few days back zencefil veda final rom and given my device to my wife. i have bought new xperia sp so iam no more the owner of my x8. but i never forgot this forum, i have learned lot of thinks from only here. i have helped few my friends for updating their x8 too, they were no aware of rooting, bootloader unlocking, etc. i got famous among them for updating their mobiles in our circle :laugh:. its time for me to leave this forum, but i never stop to visit xda. i thank each and every developer for our x8, for their greatest efforts, selfless work.thanks to everyone.hopefully we will meet in some new other forums with your new devices.thank u all.

:(:(:(:(
[XPERIA X8 General] ShinOrochiX:
I actually left the X8 forums behind about 1.5 years ago but thought I would give my message for the X8 and it's forum (better late than never :o )-I still visit the forums every now and then. My dad bought me my X8 back in 2011 and it was my second smartphone, first one was X10 mini pro (screen to small :mad: ) so I got the X8. I loved using it on the stock firmware even though it was outdated but this was because I was an Android noob back then but slowly I started to learn to improve the X8 through mods e.g. multi touch and many others. Eventually I got into using custom ROMs which I enjoyed thoroughly. It was the X8 which taught me how to make the most of Android's openness and I had so much fun with it.

Eventually I started feeling that the X8 was becoming too slow and the small screen wasn't helping my growing fingers thats when I decided to upgrade to another Sony Ericsson smartphone (SE's phones were/are just beautiful) so then I got the Live with Walkman and I am still using it now.

But I will never, ever forget the X8 (I am still reluctant to sell it-even though I don't use it :D ), it was the first phone I actually enjoyed using and it taught me so much! :)

P.S Forgot to add that the devs who developed for the X8 are true legends. GingerDX in my opinion was/is the best ROM for the X8, thanks a million to doixanh and TeamFun!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GregórioAxiaMagno:
Is possible to uninstall factory apps with root access, all we know that.

But, ADB have 'root' command that give root access to the terminal what you are in, so, in this case, factory apps can be uninstalled by androig debugger with root acces?

like:

adb root

adb uninstall XXX

?

Regards
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GregórioAxiaMagno:
I found a way, by http://www.josephcs.com/removing-system-stock-apps-android/

===="

No root? The ADB way!

If your phone has not been rooted, Android Debug Bridge (ADB) might do some help. Before you proceed, this is for advanced users! A little Unix knowledge is appreciable.

Download the Android SDK & extract it locally. Open command-prompt and point it to the /tools directory. Connect your phone to your computer with USB Debugging enabled on phone (Settings->Applications->Development and check USB Debugging).

Check if your device has been recognized

adb devices

If your device is listed, browse to system/app. System apps are stored in /system/app.

adb shell

cd system/app

ls

‘ls’ lists the files in the present directory. Identify the file-name of the app to be removed, and type

rm example.apk

where example.apk is the name of the file with its extension.

If you prefer to back it up to SD Card, you can move the file instead (which also removes from phone)

mv filename.apk /sdcard/appbackup

where ‘appbackup‘ is a directory.

Done! Repeat the steps until all the apks that you want removed are done. Optionally, restart your device.

Battery Calibration and Other Tips from RealPariah

To save space on the post I am moving to spoiler type Q/A. Just click the SHOW CONTENT button for a given guide or answer to show the related information

Folks seem to keep asking a lot of the same questions so I have begun this thread at first to answer the Battery Calibration [Manually] and now I am going to keep adding things I find users keep asking about. Hopefully this will help alleviate the Dev Threads and please feel free to Link here in ROM directions I will try to break up things in to posts so you can link to a certain post for a certain item.

RealPariah's Manual Battery Calibration Methods

First is just whenever; Below that will be how to calibrate on flash of new ROM.

When I talk of charging it is highly highly recommended you use the AC adaptor and charge with phone off for absolute best results.

Calibrate Anytime

[Reminder: To save space on the post I am moving to spoiler type Q/A. Just click the SHOW CONTENT button right below to see the steps in battery calibration]

-> Charge phone to 100%

-> Restart phone [to be sure it isn't off by some amount (if phone off just unplug AC adapter for 30 secs and plug back in)]

-> Wait 20 min after you are sure it is 100% (phone should stay plugged in)

-> Boot in to recovery

-> wipe battery stats (advanced)

-> Get ready to pull battery and unplug phone and do so after the screen goes black after tapping restart device (pull AC adaptor first)

-> Wait 30 seconds and replace battery

-> Allow phone to boot

-> run through ENTIRE CHARGE (COMPLETELY DISCHARGE) the battery (whether normal usage or looped media files whatever you have time for)

-> restart phone to be sure it is totally dead

-> Charge fully one more time

You should be good to go!

Just remember it may take several days for phone to generate statistics and for this to fully settle in.

Calibrate Battery at ROM Install

Just be sure your battery to 100% as above and wipe battery stats right before you flash ROM zip.

Then be sure to fully kill the device and do one full phone off charge

You should be good to go!

as above it takes several days for battery stays to fully generate and settle in!

Hope they helps, and in my multiple tests seems to really make sure you get best performance!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DannyB513:
I agree with what Google said about battery calibration and conditioning, it is a placebo effect. I have never calibrated nor conditioned my battery and always get anywhere from 15 hours to 2 days use out of my battery depending on use.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RealPariah:
LoL and if you abuse battery by leaving it plugged in our never fully charging discharging battery and statistics are messed up or a bad flash corrupts them what you get new battery?

All I can say is I have seen huge gains on devices doing this, yes it won't help to do it all the time that is a placebo, but trust me in real world with folks not always using devices per manufacturers guidelines (cough rooting and custom ROMs cough) it can really help.

Trust me I don't post info unless I exhaustively test something and can vouch for results myself on multiple devices and with multiple user feedbacks (just ask mysticfrog if it is worth reading what I post :) )

To each his own though you don't have to follow my advice if you choose not to I ain't gonna show up at your house or anything ;) )

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icenight89:
This method works not because u wipe battery stats, but because u reset the battery memory, which is built into the battery itself. Google has confirmed the myth, wipe battery stats simply deletes a bin file that android creates on each reboot that track your app usage per charge, that is all.

It should also be noted that doing the method frequently will actually have ADVERSE affects on your battery. Completely discharging newer lithium batteries can result in dead cells, so be careful.
