[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] XperianPro:
Games still lags,why,why there isnt some rom that does not lags :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zousoum96:
For me Hd games like eternal legacy doesnt lag. Try adding overclock this might solve your problem and if u add overclock i suggest adding also undervolt
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ninhdo:
CM7-54 rom

Confirmed that root apps does not make phone reboot when killed. :D

no sound on fm radio thoug :/
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] junixquiaoit:
does led lights fixed? blinking?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Flasher8:
@ Racht

Does your oc freq maximum is 600?

Can i set it to 710 ?

I try doixanh x8oc.ko v004 which can set freq to higher but after i set it and reboot

just go back to 600.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ojojoj:
I cant edit build.prop file. After restart changes revert back. This is only for me?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zousoum96:
Guys not confirmed but i have an idea to get radio working.

So if we download an other fm radio for our region would it work?

Because the problem is that there is not sound so an other app may solve the problem
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ramirrat:
five times I reinstalled this rom. phone still got constant reboot every 10 minutes, and lags in the menu. Previous cm-47 was better
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zousoum96:
Do you have the latest baseband? Also you need latest busybox
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] csiziktomi:
why not work my sd card? dont look the phone this.But a recovery is working. sorry my bad english.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Tobi@s:
Yes :) It works without reboots for me :)

Finally a ROM that is good enough for daily use.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
Actions speak louder so which app shall we download for regional radio apk?

keep up the good work racht
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aerosmith1:
its just a great rom, for me, none of reboots, its smooth and stable just like its written :) nfs shift doesnt work :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
thanks for the comment, what error do u get in nfs ?

did u try to reinstall it ?

in what rom did it work before?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] FoxHunter14:
Great rom, but i miss the DSP Manager. Racht, please hear me out! Put in the next version. Please. :) Keep it up! ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aerosmith1:
it starts , runs at the ea logo, but then closes, i used the stock rom before, i tried angry birds, and that works very vell.

i reinstalled it and tried different versions, none of its working.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wojtst:
The rom is running nicely, no reboots, pretty work :).

The only thing is camera, no blinking leds , rom lags a bit while using live wallpaper and sensors work slowly.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] malungkot:
After update.. ROM is stable and smooth, I guess battery also is stable.

But only nova in gameloft games is working.. some are not. I tried assasin's creed the screen to bigger.

Test it more.. Thanks.... and one thing also, launcher pro always force close at first boot.. :confused::confused:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dbts25:
@racht: It works on miniCM too. But on gingerbread roms it don't work. Maybe it is problem with that game not with your rom. Here is logcat from NFS crash if you need it. Your rom is smooth and stable as you said. Great work
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] truong90:
everyone can tell me how to make SD Card working on this rom: CM7 NIGHTLY v.54 HACKDROID???
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dbts25:
If you have ext partition delete it and create only one FAT or FAT32 partition
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] malungkot:
what do you mean working? because mind is working...

do you mean you want to install some of your application in your SDCard?

If that's the case..

you go SETTING..

-- CyanogenMod Setting

-- Application setting

-- push allow application moving

-- push install location

-- choose external

Hope is this what you want.. ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] truong90:
No!!! i mean is i cant see my data in my sd card when i restore that rom...

Im goto File Manager app and go sdcard folder then its tell me "This folder is empty".

Im goto settings -> Storage... in Mount SD Card line tell me " Insert an SD card for mounting"... What happen with this rom?

I tried restore any rom and my sd card is mounted! its work.

Sory for my bad english... and thanks sir! :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aerosmith1:
i used this rom from yesterday. ive got 0 reboots, its very good, everything worked, i dont know what are you doing guys, but i had no battery drain, sd card worked, and everything, no lags, ist much smooter for me than minicm 1.0.

some bugs ive found.

sometimes when i lock the screen , the led turns on( i think its because there is a program in the status bar(like alarm).

nfs shift crashes.

facebook didnt work well, it crashes when i click on the friends, but the news are loaded.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] malungkot:
as dbts25 says.. maybe you have Extension partition on your SDCard, i guess this ROM work one FAT32 partition only ;) I hope I guess right..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] truong90:
Lol... im tried format my sd card to FAT32 but it dont work... same problem... >"<!!!

" Total space

Unavailable

Available space

Unavailable

Mount SD card

Insert an SD card for mounting".

.............................................

In another rom its work normal.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dbts25:
Try to remove all partitions and then create only one FAT or FAT32 partition. Not only format

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dbts25:
Look here:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=SD_card_partitioning

Follow only step 1,2 and 4. But first backup everything from your SD card to computer. If it don't help try to reinstall rom
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aerosmith1:
the apk link doesnt work. i tried this version too and it didnt worked. you tried it and it worked to you?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ojojoj:
Latest build bugs:

camera

fm radio

LED (start drain battery when left 10%)

lag in games (f.e. angry birds)

No more bug "SDcard is safe to be removed":)

@Racht can you fix battery drain bug? In J rom LED dont turns on and with battery is ok.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] truong90:
Thanks for your help! Im have a 2Gb SD card and choose FAT or FAT32???

Why does my music lags while multitasking and while playing only music sometimes....

This happens only with the latest 2 builds.. not with others.

Any Help ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Maze_fr:
For me, everything goes well : smother, no root reboot, everything I already had installed still work.

Now only left to get the LEDs work correctly, and the cam to work.

A great work, as usual.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
I'm using the latest version and have a problems games laggs, it's not smooth, battery life is low ant etc. someone told here that problem is in cpu speed,

i try to change it with SetCPU but dont know what I need to do. has this lastest version overlocking and undervoltage is it possible to change cpu speed, I have to change speed to faster or slower and what is normal speed, 600hz ??
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Flasher8:
@racht

Maybe you can take a look at Srom-2.3.3GingerbreadX8-V1 by stelios97&zousoum96 for the camera fix...

Your rom and is really smooth and stable.

thanks !:D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] MXR2:
it seems Srom is only VGA capable .

i think racht is mainly focusing on fixing the 3.2mp instead?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
is it possible to include a swype keyboard they are getting very popular these days?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
vr, sometimes I think u are bringing the humor to this forum ;)

I am not going to add paid apps to the rom by the wishlist, no.

But that said, if u like swype - go and install it like u do normally..

I use smartkeyboardpro myself, it has all the languages i want and i like Galaxy skin :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] muzik_demon:
Racht , how about an update to floyo? since everything is fixed and all

I know there is minicm but that was built for x10mini but floyo 0.15 was so good for x8 it was fast and smooth.I think all x8 users will agree.

Its ok if you shoot down the request if you are busy with other things :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aldee_s:
i dont think miniCM is bad, because i use it myself, and its pretty smooth, the same as racht's floyo, and now its even better, because it doenst have root apps bug. well, i personally think that we should let racht focusing on Gingerbread ROM. :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aerosmith1:
NFS shift works now! i dont know why, but when i download the cache via wifi it doesnt run , but when i copy the cache what are uploaded somewhere, it works.

one problem still exists. if i dont touch the screen while playing, it turns off. its normal in these new nfs versions?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] muzik_demon:
Don't get me wrong not saying miniCM is bad its good but not as smooth as floyo or his cm7 roms..

Also there are some minor problems..

Yeah even I think he should focus on cm7 roms but if he is free he may make an update for floyo

Sent from my X8
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] XperianPro:
Why floyo is discontinued?

Because minicm is maked from same source,they are same no need for two same roms.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
Can someone tell me have this lastest version of racht's 2.3.3 ROM installed undervoltage and overclocking? What is the best speed to use for CPU?

Is it possible to install in 2.3.3 , SMS application from original 2.1 xperia x8 ROM cause this one in 2.3.3 is so bad, I like that in 2.1 version :D

plz answer on my Q's
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aerosmith1:
+1, i like it too, and the contacts app, and the digital clock widget, and the timescape, alarm... :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] andrasandhi:
yeah, +1000

floyo, the smoothest ROM i ever used after old ratch's RC3 ginger.

i've try miniCM but FOR ME thats lag too much than floyo, especially for game.

now,floyo + push OC (thankz to 'the module man') on 787Mhz (only when playing game), its amazing fast!!

no more lag!

thankz again to ratch and other x8 devs.....
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xiaofatty1:
Hey guys ive just flashed the new cm7 (updated 25/4) and froyo 2.2 legend sense.

have problem with sd. They just won't read my sd!

Froyo : won't read sd , when i open root explorer or any file manager , it appears as if no sd is inserted. it also wont read my SIM, when i try to import contact from SIM it says that no SIM is inserted

CM7 2.3 : it reads my sd. but then, my sd is 8gb , but it says that total is just 2.15GB(this is the free space i have in my sd before i flash this rom)

any people having same problem? or did i flash it wrongly? =) sorry for being noob
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aldee_s:
well, i personally think, floyo and miniCM's performance are the same, and also, when i used racht's CM7, the 3D is still worse than Froyo.

And i don't think racht will waste his time further on floyo, because there are many Froyo ROMs out there, and you should think that Gingerbread is more important than Froyo right now, so why wasting time on the older ones? :D Go racht :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] aldee_s:
@xiaofatty

what did you mean by this line "froyo 2.2 legend sense" ?

i think you should use factory reset feature, reflash it.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xiaofatty1:
2.2 Froyo Sense (Legend) v0.5

Download : 2.2-SenseFroyo.0.5

Fixes : GPS,WIFI(!), SD

Not done : GSM,Vibra,Sound..

this is what i meant.

i flashed by unzipping the downloaded zip file to /sd/xrecovery/backup and then restore the folder with the 4 files.

should i use another way? which is don't unzip it, copy the zip file to our sd and use xrecovery to "install custom zip"

factory reset before or after installing the rom???
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
I try downloading apps from market and it say s

Package pack invalid

What settings do I need tof change
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kuyagaol:
why are u use that, it's not fix yet, everybody using floyo v.015
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] klaus74:
oh..what about floyo development?

Su reboots were fixed in minicm and in gingerbread...

Floyo 0.15 is the most performing rom in our x8 IMHO.

Racht? :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mattd123:
can you add overclock and su reboot fix to floyo 0.15? its the smoothest rom :)

thanks <3
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Rolandh:
Is FM Radio fixed in the build from the 25th build?

Also what's the xperia.apk that con be downloaded from the first post?

Is the xrecovery charging bug fixed meaning that we can charge our phones offline or can we still only charge online?

Roland
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] edxmon:
I would also like to have X8 overclock module in floyo 0.15
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] argpsi:
So cm7-54 doesn't have x8oc or undervolt, right? I'll just use the manual installation of x8oc like before if that's the case...

The battery drain only needed "wipe bat. stats" when I moved from Floyo to 2.3.3 RC1. In any other occasion it got fixed by rebooting(the drain appeared only after 1st boot). Seems that rebooting every now and then makes the phone run smoother as if ginger is a memory-hog
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] tarasbuba:
in CM7-54 Fm not fixed yet :( , no sound in headphone

racht

this rom is very good thx, but you can fix the leds ? this is a big problem, it's drain battery very fast :(, leds dont blink

thx
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Benjoy Ericsson:
I'm waiting for fixing camera in CM7-v54.

Really like this rom :p
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xiaofatty1:
i just wanna make sure that my way of flashing rom is correct.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xiaofatty1:
sd works normally ? for u
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Benjoy Ericsson:
Yes, It works normally, but a little bit battery drain, camera completely doesn't work and FMRadio has no sound :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Defenistrator:
Since installing cm7-54 ive had such a huge battery drain, about 4-5 percent every few mins from sitting idle and from 87 down to 30 in about an hour and a half while it was just sitting in my pocket! Other than that its the best rom yet, very smooth and stable and works great. Gonna have to uninstall untill i can stop it draining my battery
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] c*h*a*r*r*o:
Did you reset the battery stats?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mzmz83:
Try this solution...http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12793765&postcount=2032
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
I am using 54 myself since I posted it. Actually battery is better than in any previous rom. I get 2 full days with heavy use (almost constant wifi and some 40-50 mins Skype calls, Skype calls over 3g, whenever wifi is off I use 3g and keep online gtalk and Skype).

I did not have to do wipe as I was upgrading from another cm7 rom, but if u are coming from other, do wipe, do fresh install of apps and mddi module and report battery than.

P.s. I do kill apps with system tool occasionally when I feel slowness, usually its caused by Facebook and maps running in background..

Also I use static wallpaper, I get about 4 hours more than with live wallpaper starfield..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
what are your plans on camera? why exactly is it you can't install radio and camera?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] -ReaL-:
really need camera and radio!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
The CM7 camera driver is not ready. It works in VGA mode only.

I use a real camera for pics, much better :)

Once there's progress with camera, it will be included.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] match_stick:
For some reason whenever I use a 2. 3 rom I can't access the sdcard... wen I open gallery it says 'sdcard unmounted or not present'.

I'm using Floyo 0.15 at the moment n it runs almost perfect. Plz, help! G
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
How is it partitioned? The only proper way for cm7 is one big fat32 partition.. u might have to format it. Also u have to reinstall apps if upgrading from floyo
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Compwxr:
Hi there racht, can you atleast implement VGA camera in your next version, this is, if it don't cause you big problems, I would use your 2.3.3 rom, but I need camera working for university as I use it a lot. Thanks in advance and keep your GREAT work ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
2. 3. 4 released for nexus
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] argpsi:
no offence, but X8 camera is pretty average if not useless... It's only good for uploading to FB or for profile pics in your contacts list. As long as you dont zoom in the pics are ok... I also use a camera instead. Tbh, I had a friend take pic with his Desire S and send it to my x8. Even though it was looking good it still lacked sharpness in zoom-in.

Note: A minor unimportant glitch in 2.3.3. When wi-fi icon goes green the mobile signal graphs(in the notification bar) also turn green.

Task-killing in System Tool turns out to be a frequent action if I dont reboot or something. Memory-hog?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Flasher8:
Do you have any link ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Flasher8:
@racht

How can i change the freq to higher ?

Because i using doixanh v004 oc, but when i change to 710 then i go back to

home screen it automatic change back to 600max and 245min!

Do i need to delete anything in hw.config.sh?

Does anybody know how to create update.zip?

Because i have downloaded the latest version and it is in rar file i tryed to put files in zip with or without folder but when i try to update from Xrecovery it does nothing... just for 10 seconds it says updating and then it goes back to the main menu

and yes my base band is 15
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dbts25:
Extract rar to /xrecovery/backup and in xrecovery select backup/restore => restore and select rom
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xiaofatty1:
Heres a noob question =) :

a) copy update.zip to sd and choose install update.zip or custom zip then choose it

b) extract the folder with the 4 files to /sd/xrecovery/backup

these ways of flashing roms.

whats the difference between a) and b) ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zousoum96:
That the rom isn't an update.zip

And don't try renaming it because it doesn't have the update script and you will brick your phone
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] cruizz:
a. is file that has been compressed only system file, u can install using xrecover-->install custom zip--> choose the zip name.

b. is a xrecovery file wich is backuped before (chace,data,system.img n nandroid is in there). so you must copy it after unrar an place it on sdcard-->xrecovery-->backup folder...and to install it use xrecovery and choose restore--> the foldername-->yes..

hope this help you..

regards :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Yerry:
Floyo .15 has a couple of pre-installed apps. All those cannot be updated via the market.

The update fails as unsuccessfull. Also these apps cannot be uninstalled.

Is there any fix for this?

Besides that will there be any Floyo updates here? Or is it dismissed and only Gingerbread is updated in the future?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] klaus74:
did you try to uninstall those apps with titanium backup?

btw, i think that floyo is THE rom for X8 so i hope it will be update

so racht will the new version will have the new pinch to zoom?and when will the new version be out?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ojojoj:
Pinch to zoom you can self add;), main problem I think is LED battery drain.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] T!b:
Got this problem too on miniCM, u could try Light Flow, and disable led notifications in cyanogen menu, it may resolved this..

Edit : it's worth with this program lol, forgot that
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] csiziktomi:
why not work this rom (racht cm 7-54) my sd card? xrecovery is work and after dont look sd card my x8.:( something idea?

sorry my bad english:(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] T!b:
Maybe you have an ext partition on ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] racht:
please stop repeating this nonsense.

LED takes about 10 times less battery than GSM module, so there's no drain of any kind.

Show me ANY other rom that can match CM7-54 on battery if you don't believe me.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] doixanh:
Calm down racht :D

I think he's mentioning about LED always on while you have notifications.
