Hi!
My name is Francisco and i'm from Chile.
I want to put a custom ROM (Android 2.2) to my Sony Ericsson X8, but before flashing i have a question.
I need to unlock my phone before flashing it with a custom ROM? Because my phone has customization and it is locked and i can't use it inother companies.
Thanks in advance!
You don´t need to unlock your phone for custom ROMs, you´ll just need superuser access and a recovery.
Have a look at one of the tutorials that are available on this forum, they´re quite good!
I am a limited user and i dont use all those available options in custom kernal.
I dont use governers too.
Please, someone with kernal modding knowledge tell me how to make an overclock kernal.
I own an arc.
requirements:
i want all voltages and cpu states to be like in arc s.
no 10-12 cpu states. just i want it like in arc s.
no governers or tweaks. just like stock with oc.
no other options required like cust boot logo, ram swat etc etc, just no.
In brief I want a kernal like stock with only OC similar to arc s.
I am still using win xp and tutorials are more for linux and the tutorial for windows just doesnt work for me.
help. Thanks a lot.
hi all
im starting a new project an probably the hardest one so i need help of some of the other developers.
for now im downloading the xperia u system dump(thanks to @pipi14 for his xperia u ftf file in here)
this project may not be completed because its very hard for me but i like learning so im going to start it.
and another thing
im using stock ics as my base for porting because i think its easier to port it using stock roms as base
any helps are appreciated for this project
what i have done:
1- files are downloaded now.
2-system dump is extracted
3-debloating the rom now (because it is more than our system partition)
4-system files are about 550mg without touching them. if they be higher than 310mg even after debloating i will need someone for remapping lupus kernel
4-after making some of the things ready for port i saw that its 410mg (its not 380mg)
5-vengeance kernel didnt work i need some help for 400mg kernel now :crying: because im very noob in kernels :crying:
yes finally entered recovery in vengeance kernel
flashing the rom now
it is really hard for me to wait more
update:
flashed the first build
waiting to see if it boots or not
update2:
i made a logcat and i think i found 1 of the problems
testing my idea now
update3:
flashing now
Keep up the good work...trial and error is part of the thrill of working on roms.
What is vengeance kernel and is it a new xperia play kernel?
Sent from my R800at using xda premium
its a neo l kernel but because neo l is very similar to play so i can use neo l kernel for only getting this rom boot
but im having too many kernel related problems (i dont know why but i cant pass the kernel bootlogo some times) and because of my exams i cant test things for now

@extremetempz
can you remap partitions of lupus gb/ics kernel like other xperia 2011 devices kernels when you have time ?
i really need it for porting xperia arc roms +this project
I am planning to build my own custom stock ROM, I need help with a few things..!
1)I want to make a prerooted deodexed stock ROM - So my question is from Base ROM of the latest new build, how and where do i find that. I have an idea of how to deodex the ROM, but suggestions are welcomed. Also, if I make a new ROM, from fully stock, how do i make it prerooted with no bugs at all using the latest TWRP recovery.
a) SO, according to my thinking..I will obviously need a fully stock Marshmallow ROM with the latest build, I will root it and then copy the whole ROM to my folder and edit from that? Is that what has to be done? If no..plz assist.
2)I like to use fonts - so I want my ROM to have it pre-installed with a beautiful font
3)Battery tweak - I need some help in building a build.prop file,
4)Performance - I need to make this ROM as stable as it is stock, so i really don't mind to make the performance a little faster.
5)I wanted to also install some good theme pre-installed in my ROM, so would it be possible? if yes how to do it.
I have a basic idea on how to build a ROM, i just need someone to help me with this and whoever can help, will definitely get all the credits
a) we can definitely work together and keep building this ROM for more performance.
b)We will also try to update it with the latest builds as and when required.
SO, someone who is really willing to help are all welcomed
Hoping someone can help me build a ROM for our beloved Moto X play.
110 views and no one ready to help me make a stock ROM...strange..!!
I want to make a rom too as what u r proposing here but I m totally newbie.I understand the logic how things work but I dont know the process how to make it work.So if I want to help you ,I cant due to lack of my knowledge.Though if u think then we can work together.

I was also thinking about porting a ROM , I know a little bit about it from reading from these forums but there are no latest article about porting MM ROMs. if you have any tutorials or links PM me.

I have already made the ROM...am getting flashing error not sure why..lol
what i did was extracted the MM rom, did some tweaks as per my needs and ziped it back thats it..when i try to flash it says flashing failed...u know what is wrong?
I thought we already have 2 stock roms in the Android Development section?
If you do not know how to do, using the kitchen1, kitchen2
So now that we know Oreo 8.0 is the last official version for our X compact, is there any way to overclock the cpu?
I mean it is already fast enough for anything but still I would like the ability to do that, even underclock it a little.
can we make a custom kernel for this device? or is there a way to edit the stock kernel with new clocks?
well i dont have much information about these thing, i only know that we need a custom kernel for overclocking and stuff.
Im on unlocked and rooted stock .118 oreo.
Also, is there a way to upgrade adreno/vulkan drivers on this device? they are outdated and recent drivers have been reported to be much better in other devices but why not sd650?? LINK HERE
