LOL Ok thanks and now you re gonna laugh with my next question!

I m gonna use X10 Flasher and update to the latest baseband.

Do I need my SD Card in the phone while doing this?

Its gonna be a pain in the ass to re format it again once more.

Also from what I understand I ll just have to flash only the firmware

and

then

the custom roms and rooting and everything just like I did

to get the floyo Rom in the phone some days ago,right?

EDIT:The phone is booting up Floyo 0.15 again.

I really need to study more.LOL I thought updating the new baseband

would need setting up everything again.

So,thats it? Floyo 0.5 and new Baseband ...in like 15sec?!? Nice!

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] hugerth:
I changed baseband version from 006 to 015 on Floyo, and now I can't find any Wi-Fi connections... What should I do now?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] krzysztofo:
In 2.2 v0.15 there is that option, but not in 2.3.3.

Is there any possibility to turn it off?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Blitzkri3g:
@hugerth

Did you try again after reboot?

Did you try setting up wifi networks again? Maybe this will fix it?

Also I suggest disabling SIM PIN for those that have reboots with SU apps,so that you don't need to check your phone from time to time just to see if you re actually registered on your carrier or not.

Set up a phone lock though,as you don't want anyone messing with your phone anyway.

Temp solution but works fine!

Q: The latest CM07 233 has the same reboot issue caused by SU apps or is it fixed?

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] hugerth:
I still have the same problem, like before. IDK what is that, but i think the problem could be newer baseband. Is it possible?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] UAL4588:
I have a question. In 2.1 I used the international version so I was able to pick the locale as English(Hong Kong), I live in China, but I'm used to reading English. In Racht's 2.2.1 I could only pick English(US), no Hong Kong option so I have spacing in my contact list for phone numbers that looks something like this: 1-358-105-3858, while the correct display should be 13581053858... Not a huge problem but it still bugs me... any workarounds? Like maybe I could install a package from 2.1 that gives me the Hong kong locale or something?:confused:

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] guitarded068:
If you haven't found it yet, the compatibility setting is actually the last item in Spare Parts.

I'm on Floyo 0.15 with the latest baseband. I was having problems with su apps crashing and not getting su permissions too (e.g. titanium backup and cache cleaner would endlessly wait for root access.) After I updated the Superuser app with a fresh one from Market (v 2.3.6.1), these problems went away. I still get the sd card remove crash from time to time, but i don't think it has to do with root apps crashing anymore.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Boshe:
Just noticed that in Floyo 0.15 app2sd is working without creating an ext3 partition.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] viper001:
I dont know if it will work with you guys, but to gain some stability i disabled compatibility and reduced vm back to 24. The sudden reboots are gone, so far. Just the root app thingy remains.

Also, make sure your caches are clear. Not just in xrecovery , use a cache cleaner. Got the idea frm a previous post of th os running out of mem.

Maybe, a better "cleanup" routine is needed. The x8 is sypposed to have 196mb of usable mem right? But why am i seeing 211mb, on some roms 250mb? Can this be ajusted by "taking" from the system rom?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] karun11:

I tried "2.3.3-CM J005-by-racht" but the GPS isn't working.

Is this a known problem? In that case, sorry for bothering you...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] UAL4588:
Yes. If you go into Jerplea's Thread you can see that GPS is a known problem.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Drakenfall:
GPS doesn´t work but it works the camera (VGA) and doesn´t freeze videos and plays HD Youtube.

A mix between the two rom´s and it would be a very good one.

There so many great roms made by racht.

But, I don't know wich rom i have to choose.

i am currently using 2.3.2, and its quite good, but is has sometimes

So, my question is:

Wich rom do i have to choose now, if i want the fastest, almost everything working, no errors, camera,

(floyo, 2.3.3 ?)

I hope someone could answer this..

Great job !

I just prepared my phone this evening for flashing.

I can't flash my X8 2.1 android phone with X10FlashTool included on the Baseband rar file linked on the first page. The version of the tool is 0.2.6 and I got an error message :

cannot stat '.\custom\root\checkperms': No such file or directory

and others like 'can't get Root privilege' ...

The 0.2.8 version is ok and seems to be the version to use with a 2.1 android.

Next step for me, installa the ROM !!!!

Hi guys,

For all thoses who use Floyo 15, have you notice any autonomy problem ?

In the hidden menu *#*#info, "partial activity utilisation" i have "Call" even if i don't call..

And in the "sensor" menu too, maybe the autobrigtness ?

Any idees ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Bandenabos:
My X8 was rooted before using X10FlashTool 0.2.6. The phone asks me to authorize 'Unknown' program to get root access but, even if I accept the X10FlashTools log an error.

Only the 0.2.8 verison runs with the same rooted phone. I really think that it was a tool version problem !

I backup my system with XRecovery this morning, really simple. I'll test the floyo next week (I need my phone the week-end ... going skiing and need working GPS, video and phone). :D

No it's not cracked. We only bypass the original kernel

. Try to explain : the original bootloader boots a custom one with custom kernel

@Racht:

For the custom kernel method we need the boot.img wich we can't get of phone because stock bootloader. Can you start to develop one would be very nice. You can also ask j for help. Bin4ary first want to make it stable for x10 so better we all let him work and wait for the realease

Have anyone installed 2.3.3 CM X8 J005 HACKDROID and had restarts when for example playing angry birds or at galery?

Mine specially at angry birds restarts really often... i can only play like one or 2 levels...then PUF! I installed it at sd card first, but tried it also in phone memory...

When i install this 2.3.3 do i have to have the original SE 2.1 or doesn't matter?
