where can i find original european rom for x8? not the weird russian one
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Ok, I feel officially beaten. As I was downloading java stuff I plugged my X8 in USB debuggin mode to the computer, just so it waits and charges a bit, and when the installation begun I thought "why not give it another try". And guess what, with enabled APNdroid I reboot my device, dismiss the request for PIN, disable APNdroid and... it works. HSPA connection all the way.

I don't really get it, but it's better to have it working anyway :P Sorry for bothering you guys ;) Perahps I just have to make several reboots after updating to get it working.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] a-k-t-w:
Ugh. All the updates have been fine up until the beta1. It broke my phone, and I had to clear all my settings and installed apps for it to work. :c
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] WARR10r:
for me WiFi don't work =(

it just loop on connecting => disconnected => connecting
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] EL_BELLACO:
for me all works fine
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] CaptainZap:
As I've stated before I can't see a difference since alpha3.1 on my phone. So everything that worked before, is working now.

wishlist

Could you please add a custom unlock theme,like ones found in lockbot so we don't have to use 3rd party app?thx
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] djevilx:
perhaps you should have used titanium backup to backup your apps,format /data in xRecovery,flash update.zip beta 1,install titanium backup and just restore apps with data,worked for me
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] XperiaDev:
Seems Stable on my X8 except some minor issues.

One redundant problem is, When ever we click signout in skype, 'SDcard safe to remove' message is coming followed by the phone reboot.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] LFSPovo:
I just found out, that if you install "yxplayer" move it to SD, you won't be able to install anymore apps. They will all crash while installing.

So moving "yxplayer" back to phone memory, solves everything. :D
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] jamesbond22:
Yeah some application work better when there are installed on internal memory. For example LauncherPro running faster if he is installed on internal memory. And can set widget from PowerAMP and Fancy Widget, if there are installed on internal memory.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Ok, one other thing I noticed - battery usage. I stopped charging the phone today at about 11 A.M., downloaded one app via wifi, talked for about 5 minutes and left it. Some hour ago I checked it, and the mini info widget was showing 93% - now it's showing the same amount. Either the battery usage is that incredebly low, or the battery life reading soft is screwed. I'll check again in a few hours and keep you updated. It's strange, though, as yesterday when I was testing app2sd feature the battery drain was high as hell.

Yesterday I was checking the "show battery percentage in status bar" option - it was showing the same amount as mini info widged all the time and I didn't fancy the looks of it, so I disabled it. I'm writing it just so you know that it's not a problem with mini info.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] tn9:
For me everything is fine ;) except my usb conection with computer. With mini 3 and 3.1 I have the same problem I don't know if the problem is with my drivers or something in my my phone files conected with the usb driver.

In xRecovery when I choose usb conection everything is fine.

So what is the problem?

Great job nobodyAtall and DaRk_dOg for developing this ROM and thanks to ponanovn for porting to X8. Hey
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] oisteink:
What kind of problem? Try to uninstall your driver and re-connect. If that fails run "adb logcat > output.txt", then try to take cable in and out and post the log :)

adb is provided with the devkit, also with superoneclick and x10flasher.

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cruizz:
i have tried several times and still can't be installed....also PES 2011 :( ...what ext partitions you have?

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ponanovn:
You have to download the apk or restore it with titanium.

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] jamesbond22:
Rom MiniCM-1.0.0-Beta1 has big performance. I got result 1141:
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Wow! How did you get that score? My highest was something like 890...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] jamesbond22:
Run full benchmark two times for activate JiT in Quadrant...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Ah, that would explain a lot, I use a free version, so perhaps it does not use JiT... Or perhaps I should check if it even works :P

E: Terminal says it works...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Sully.E:
Hi @ll

In this ROM , for sending files via bluetooth do I need to install any apps?

I use Astro file manager , once I wanted to send a file , it said sign on your google account , so it means that this software wants to send the files to email , and there is no bluetooth being recognized for this application

I installed Bluetooth file transfer software on my android phone , so I could send files with it , but It's a bite annoying since the app wants to be paired with every devices!
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Is it normal for the icons and everythngelse to be smaller?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] DerEineDa:
Wow! I just switched from stock firmware to this one. I am really surprised about how fast the X8 can be! It's much more responsive than before.

I just hope the FM radio will be fixed someday, because I like to listen to some radio sometimes.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
That depends what do you mean by smaller. MiniCM uses launcherpro, which shows the icons in app drawer somewhat smaller than the original SE home, but widgets should be of the same size. If anything's wrong with them - post some screenshots, logs, whatever...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:
could someone tell me the use of baseband?

as i am using 006 version

and i got no problem so far..
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Boshe:
No problems with xxx15
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] WARR10r:
Only i have problem with brightness? When i turn it to auto, it's getting little crazy =\ sometimes it just turn screen off oO

And usually auto set brightness to Max even if i'm in dark room..
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Its like I'm using a higher Res than nml. ;-)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] g3nesisEXIA:
viper001 what launcher are you using?

and nice clock widget btw ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Using adw now. Launcher pro was the same. Thanks. That's the NGE Clock widget. :-)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Was doing a bit of gaming and WOW! This rom is fast. Zenonia 2 is very responsive.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
viper, normally it's a ro.sf.lcd_density value in build.prop, maybe you could search for such a line in files?...

Also, as far as battery life is concerned... i'm totally astounded by the performance of miniCM - 63% after almost 24h, and the phone wasn't just lying around. It seems that when the screen is off it uses almost no energy at all :) Great :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Just noticed because of the sign. My phone is identified as a mini ;-) with a 320x480 screen ;-p

NOT an x10mini!

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Sully.E:
Is youtube app working for you guys?

I always get this error

"there was a problem with the network"

the wifi is connected and I have access to internet but I still get the same error!!

btw I'm using alpha3.1
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Yes. YouTube is working.

Got my screen to normal size also. ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Just found out. Compass is not working. Was ok in alpha 3.1.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] jamesbond22:
I now use rom MiniCM-1.0.0-Beta1 and compass works me. I checked in app "3D Compass".
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] sincan01:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ojojoj:
This bug was in all roms
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cruizz:
Bugs in network connectivity...signal always dissapear...does anyone try use the xxx15 baseband?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:
does someone know how to avoid the screen dim

when battery is low ?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] CaptainZap:
@cruizz: I also noticed signal drop with this rom... not sure if it's only the icon from notification or if it's really a problem with the signal.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cruizz:
agree with you...why not we try to using xxx15 baseband?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
I'm using BB 15. Signal drop is authentic. Hackdroid 15 and A3.1is better.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] LFSPovo:
Exactly! Happens to me too, every 15~ mins WiFi looses connection :confused:
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] CaptainZap:
I'm not talking about Wifi, I'm talking about Radio (GSM/3G etc.). Will try racht's version tonight, eventhough I'm getting really tired from all this flashing and restoring my apps.

PS: I also use baseband 015.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Sully.E:
HI all

I have a real problem with the screen brightness

If I set the brightness to Auto , The screen brightness will go crazy So I set it to the brightest level , no more auto

but I still have some problems with it

for example sometimes when I turn on the screen , the screen brightness stays on lowest bright

Or when I turn it on , the screen turns on for about 2 second and again turns of (when I'm drawing the security pattern the screen turns off by it self) , So again I should turn it on

Does anyone have the same problem ?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] cruizz:
@LFSPovo==> gosh..u're right... bugs with wifi connection also after i checked it. i have the same problem with you

@captain==> check the wifi conection also...u'll see it.btw do you still got bugs after flashing the baseband 015 on this rom? cuz i haven't try yet

@sully==> go to the display on setting and then uncheck the auto brightnes.hope it help you...

Hi. Noticed alot of eventdata logs during a backup. Anyone knows where these are saved? Thanks.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:
Some random? reboots related to root apps and Skype log out (SD-Card ready to remove)

can formating sdcard solve the above bugs?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Unfortunately, no. I did this before and no help.:(
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] WARR10r:
Some posts before.. I have same problem
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] oisteink:
There is settings that do stuff with this in cmsettings as well. Like fade in and out and animations. Try changing these
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ponanovn:
No, I think the random reboots may be caused by the old version of Busybox.

If I tap the Problems? and then Get Busybox in Titanium Backup it will download a newer Busybox to the sd and the phone does not reboot when I kill Titanium Backup anymore.

But if I download latest Busybox from market xRecovery won't work anymore and it might even cause a bootloop.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:
even if i download a newer busybox for titanium backup

reboot still occur when i kill it
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] jamesbond22:
I use Titanium Backup only to removing system apps. So I can use instead app SystemApp Remover. Skype I don't use. But what application can I use instead of application Root Explorer? Or wait for xRecovery who work with latest Busybox?

I use files android.policy.jar, framework-res.apk, framework.jar, services.jar from rom Floyo v.0.15. Now I have theme this same like in this rom. Also I replaced file Settings.apk because here are nice icons. ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:
sometime titanium backup stick on the screen of aquring permissions

no progression

and this phenomenon is same for root needed apps such as button savior
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] viper001:
Can someone explain please. I wanted to use link2sd but ext3 partition not recognized. So I partitioned my SD as 6. 5gb fat32 500mbps ext2 and 500 ext3. No data deleted. I used easus part mgr to insert the ext2 partition :-). Cleared cache and dalvik. Run link2sd gave me error of apptosd enabled but I saw apps already linked to SD with their dex, as well as apps with just on SD. I moved all apps in SD to phone with settings >> application manager. Cyanogen mod setting unchecked allow move app and set to auto. All apps automatically were linked with dex to SD. I gained 34mb. I have 174mb free. :-)

Using a3. 1 coz compass and app to SD. Not working for me in beta1 and hack v15.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] jamesbond22:
No restart if I kill Titaniun Backup v.3.7.3.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] djevilx:
The rom is much faster than original SE,and also most important it allows apps to be moved,wich is a great improvement.Indeed a fix for the fm radio would be nice,some of us can't listen to internet radio via our APN either because we do not have a suitable data plan for this(my case) or the network just won't allow it,or any kind of streaming at all (orange apn wap ro)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:

screen brightness goes crazy again when battery is lower than 10%
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:

Be careful - flash correct 015 baseband - X8i or X8a version, depending on which one you have got...

Reflash with SEUS. ;)

Or get back with xrecovery :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] andoridkiller:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
If you went back to 2.1, simply wipe data and install update.zip again ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Rolandh:
I flashed this ROM last night and really enjoyed the speed of Froyo compared to Eclair, but I had a small problem with wifi, even though it detected my WEP encrypted network after I entered the encryption key it said obtaining IP address for ages then went to Disconnected, also it doesn't show if I'm connected to Mobile Data or not on the Notification bar, this is no good to me as I don't have unlimited Internet on my phone at the moment and rely on wifi for Internet, and as I get charged for Mobile Data at no more than £1.02 a day I like to keep Mobile Data off and with no notification of weather or not Mobile Data is on I had to unfortunately re-flash my stock SE eclair xrecovery backup. If those little problems were ironed out I'd flash to this ROM and keep it on my X8 as I loved the speed and stability of the ROM compared to the stock SE 2.1 ROM.

Roland
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Divr:
First, I never exprience any wi fi problem. It's probably you just has the wrong firmware to start with(it cause bugs if you use the old firmware). Make sure it's the newest 06. And you can disable data easily by setting the widget on the notification bar. And the data is disabled by default. You got to go to setting/wireless and network to enable it. If there's not H, E, or 2g, 3g with arrows symbols, then you are not connected to the internet.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:
cyanogenMod setting

Performance settings does not apply when change..

such as heap size
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Rolandh:
Thanks for the help. I'm on Firmware 2.1-update 1, Baseband M76XX-TSNJOLYM-53404015. I'm used to seeing the Mobile Date disconnected Icon on the left hand side of the Notification area so panicked a bit when I didn't see it. It could be that I've just put the WEP key in wrong as I had got it written down on a bit of paper, maybe I should have tried getting the key from my router setup page on Laptop.

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Siso93:
stupid question: I have the 2.0.1 firmware by SE I got that I've to upgrade to the new one by SE through pc companion, then I root and will put xrecovery (i've installed root explorer on the sd have I to re install app2sd for 2.1.1 to have rootexplorer?), then I have to follow the tutorial on the first post OK

My question is: What about application on sd (ext2 partition) on 2.2.1 firmware? Are they in the same place and will they work on 2.2.1? Will work without any modification?

thanks in advance

hi

What is reason of the draining of battery so fast?

about on week ago , the battery could last for 2 days with this ROM

but now , when I sleep and wake up the next day I see the battery status is half!

I use advance task killer to kill all of the running apps
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Well, I used to use link2sd and it required ext2 partition, and once I installed miniCM I started reinstalling my apps with titanium backup and it occured that those that I wanted to keep in internal memory in fact went to ext2 partition, so I guess you'll have all your apps restored automatically by native app2sd feature of froyo ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] hoxz:
clear data will fix that fc problem.

btw i like the analog clock on alpha 3.1

how to get back that analog clock widget ?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Graveir:
Menu button -> add -> widgets -> analog clock. That is if you're still using miniCM. If you flashed original rom already you'd need someone to get you the clock app from system folder so you can install it, but there's no certainty it would work smoothly on 2.1 :)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] hoxz:
yeah there is analog clock but in alpha 3.1, clock look more simple than beta1

how to get that ?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] andoridkiller:

Well, I had the same luncher ever since I started running this ROM. I dunno about other themes, but I take it they just change the color scheme and icons leaving the luncher as it was. It would be the case with sense - since the htc luncher requires flash light we can't use it on X8, so we get only a general impression of it with the good oldie launcher pro...
