[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
Hi guys,

as the title says, I managed to port the Hero/Legend/Gratia/Aria ROMs with Sense to our X8.

To install use xRecovery, busybox+xrecovery preinstalled in rom so you can restore backups after.

If upgrading from my previous rom to newer version, do Advanced Restore and restore only /system partition, all your data will be preserved.

These roms REQUIRE latest baseband version xxx15

Take the new baseband and flasher from my server here

or just the firmware if you have the flash tool already, here

Check if u need update by typing "busybox uname -a", u need this (notice date) :

Linux localhost 2.6.29 #1 PREEMPT Fri Dec 17 18:35:45 2010 armv6l GNU/Linux

blagus - thanks a lot !

Thanks go to J&Z and Erasmux!

Enjoy !

Updated 06-June-2011 :

Thanks again for all who donated, you have covered my weekend beer expenses :)

I was asked to do new releases to donators first for testing, and official release once bugs are solved.

This sounds like a good idea, if you have donated to me, you will receive an email with password to access to latest updates once its setup.

I believe this is the only way to both show my appreciation and not impact the rest of community.

Once again, no modaco-style, all roms will be shared with everybody in the end.
