Ok ..., I rooted my phone successfully and installed busybox but I don't know how to install cwm ... there are like 50 ways just on forum ... what is the safest way to do it ?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
Every way is safe if you follow instructions.

If you are experienced user with moving things around your system,do it manual,if you want the most simple way do it with x8toolbox.

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cascabel:
Lol. Well, i can't really argue with that. :D

Don't worry about it, though.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luka9x:
well guys .. I installed stock version .... is that alfs/naa version better, and if the answer is yes ... how can I update but without erasing apps
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cascabel:
I thik you're talking about custom kernels. Unfortunately, you need to unlock your bootloader to change kernels. nAa's roms are great BUT they don't work for stock. They all use custom kernels.

There's a thread in general about the different custom roms that are for stock kernel. Give the roms there a try. ;)

Can someone also give me a bit of advice as well, I've been trying to root my mums stock x8 and flash a rom.

I have successfully rooted several Samsung and HTC devices, but this phone has stumped me....

I successfully rooted, flashed CWM AND GingerDX 28, I've then gone to update the rom with 28b, flashed the zip..... at the point I lose recovery and root access??

So what I really need to know is how do I flash a rom without losing recovery or root?

Any help on this would be really great guys :)

Sent from Willy Wildfire, its all the Buzz :P using old xda app cos new one sucks.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cascabel:
You should not have lost root access nor recovery. Try repeatedly pressing the back button of your phone when it shows the se logo at boot. About root access, do you mean that you don't have superuser? Try downloading it from the market. Did you full wipe before flashing the rom? :confused:
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stamatis:
You shouldn't lost any of this.

Press the power button and choose reboot>clockworkmod

For the root try to use an app that requires root access.

See what happens and tell us;)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luka9x:
you have to install those addons too ... just so you know .. I bricked my phone 3 times till I found out about addons

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Johnito_:
Hi folks,

I'm an adroid 1st timer and chose a Nexus 7 two weeks ago to begin with. I was pretty happy with it (i have a faultless device) except some slugginess issues when scrolling. Thats why i tried to use a custom ROM to adress this. Well, i kind of regret this now ... I enabled USB Debugging then downloaded an utility to boot into FastBoot and wipe my device data in order to flash the new ROM. It is an vanilla device (meaning i didnt modified anything) and i am using Windows 7. I got error messages during the wiping process:

- About formating system, userdata and cache partitions (command write failed)

- About erasing "boot" and "recovery" (command write failed)

Since then, i cannot reboot into Android itself, just access FastBoot mode. I did manage to unlock the bootloader with the Nexus 7 toolkit though, but i'm not sure if it is any help.

So my question is : did i just definitively ruined my Nexus 7 ? Pleeeeease tell me there is something i can do to boot again ... I'm really not a newbie at tweaking stuff, but as this is my 1st android device please go the slow way :) I cannot upload screenshots until i wrote 10 messages FYI.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonttunator:
To me it sounds like you could get your Nexus 7 up and running just by flashing stock ROM using this.

Even if I am no help, the situation doesn't sound too bad.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Johnito_:
Thants Tonttunator ! Sadly, i have the same issue with the Nexus 7 toolkit: It fails to wipe data and continue with flashing the stock ROM. I'm still investigating to be sure my ADB/Fastboot drivers are as regular as can be, but i still cant go through the procedure.

EDIT: I finally found out that i just had to try on anotther computer with another cable. Did this using the nexus 7 toolkit and the procedure 9/1/1/y/y, it worked flawlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmessana:
I just replaced my screen and digitizer, fairly simple and straight forward.

On bottling up the first time with the new screen the phone powered up and was green. Looked like night vision. I powered it down, opened it back up hoping I goofed a connection. There are only two connections to make so I undid and redid. Fired back up the phone and it booted almost normal, it started green but then faded back to normal. On any subsequent display off and back on it will start green and then go normal. The longer the display is off the Longer it takes fr the green to fade away.

So my question is, did I get a bad replacement or did I good something up? I waited 3 weeks for this to come from China and at $150 I don't want to just run out and get another one.

Thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jorgen.bruntveit:
I have had the exact same thing happening to me. I have tried basically everything on the software side, going back and forth between rom/radio/kernel/bootloader with no luck. Tested the screen with a color tuner and it appears that there are no RED as of the RGB. So i have concluded this to be a faulty screen.

I am planning on doing a second screen replacement, so just hold on and i will post you with an update of how it went. Ordered the screen today, so guessing it will arrive in two weeks time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pmessana:
The thing with mine is that it turns to normal after 30-40 seconds, as if it has to warm up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jorgen.bruntveit:
Got the screen replacement today, worked a charm. No more green! :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rsswga:
just for kicks how long did it take to do the screen replacement?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jorgen.bruntveit:
About 40 minutes, fairly straight forward :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mudassar007:
I am also getting same green color, do I have get another screen?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jorgen.bruntveit:
Did you get this green color after a screen replacement? In my case it was a bad screen, so a new replacement did the trick.
[General Questions and Answers] King Mustard:
I've switched from an iPhone 4S to a Galaxy Note but I really miss iOS' keyboard.

I have found iPhone Keyboard Emulator in the Play Store but it's not perfect (although pretty close).

Do I have other options that "emulate" the iPhone keyboard?
[General Questions and Answers] KidCarter93:
If you look around in the Android Apps & Games section you might be able to find what you're looking for.
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
What do you miss about the iPhone keyboard? Its looks or its highly praised auto correct? If its auto correct try out swiftkey, and if its looks then don't bother, it really can't be emulated that well.

You might want to try out swype, some people actually use it as their main input (although Im not so great with it lol)
[General Questions and Answers] King Mustard:
Neither looks or auto-correct - but the layout (mainly of the two Symbols pages). I don't to have to re-learn all over again if I can avoid it.
