[Q] How to Flash X8 whit ClockwoerkMod - XPERIA X8 General

I can´t find the way. I´m not find Shakira. Can anybody help me?

What exactly do you want to flash?

If you want to download the new Cyanogenmod 7.1 for xperia X8 the very best way must be using ClockwoerkMod. But in this app there is not any Sony Ericsson.
I can´t not install this rom because I try downloadin the Rom from CyanogenMod page but... it is not possible install it in my Xperia X8

Still didn't get it. Do you want to install ClockworkMod Recovery on your X8 so you can install the official CM7? You can install the Recovery with this toolbox.

thanks a lot, but I can´t install the CyanogenMod Rom....it says about 1 error (7) and abort the instalation.

Hello all.... can i get some assistance please???
ROM Manager should make your life a little easier.
Install ROM Manager, start it up, make sure that you RTFM.
To save yourself from making unrecoverable mistakes, search the forum for "nandroid backup" and do one before you start messing about with updating your ROM. You might want to investigate Titanium Backup so that your installed programs and data can be reloaded after a wipe.
Or:
Download 7.0.3, like you probably downloaded your nightly build, and flash it on CWR (ClockWork Recovery).
You'll probably need to convert your Gen (I had to), for that I used a thing called CM7 Universal Converter, worked for me, should work for you. Download it, put it into your SD card (like CM) and then install CM and after CM install the converter.

Help please with rom manager because i have rooted xperia play and bootloader unlocked and installed cm7.1 but when i open rom manager and go to the flash section and it askes for the make of my phone the xperia play isnt there i was wondering if there is a phone model which is substitute to xperria play i will give thanks to answer cheers
You cant flash recoveries the standard way, and you cant use rom manager with the play atm, i think the cm7 kernel comes with a custom recovery though

There are no custom ROMs save for CM7 betas, that's why.

Hi!
Hi! I see that you have problem with GINGER DX instalation and you don't have CWM. First you must to install XRecovery (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls10Og6W89s) . When you install them you go to xrecovery ( turn on your phone and press back button on phone when you saw SE white logo). You came into xrecovery. 0. Put your GINGER DX file on SD - then you must to turn off your phone and go to xrecovery. 1.Click to delete all user data(you will gonna delete all your data so make a copy on PC) 2.Click Install Custom zip. 3.When you install zip go to Advanced setting on Xrecovery and clean battery stats. Then reboot your phone and you have installed ginger dx!

GingerDx from v014+ should be isntalled with CWM!!! Easiest way to install it is find on this forum x8toolbox and install it and install Xrecovery or CWM or both!!! But before that you should root your phone
You need to go step by step
1. Root your X8 by using SuperoneClick. (File attached)
2. Install XRecovery.
3. Follow the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486
follow nima's instructions
i suggest upgrade to FroyoBread first and install Dual Recovery Mode using x8 toolbox just follow the steps
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117100
then install GingerDX v019 using CMW . . then your on GingerDX now . . horray ! ehehe
Wait,wait..
Can i do like matej says,is that good?
I can't instal xRecovery because i don't know how to root my phone.Superoneclick don't works for me
Why ,be more specified

[Q] Problem with Launcher Pro on Xperia X8

Hello!!
I'm a new user of Android and a couple of months ago I bought the Sony Ericsson Xperia X8.
THE CONTEXT:
I tried to upgrade my phone, rooting it and installing Android 2.3.7 (GingerXperiaV12) following a guide I found in youtube
After doing those steps yesterday, it worked fine.
I put to charge the battery all night, and this morning when I start the phone there was a message error telling about an error in Launcher Pro. I ignore it, and press continue so I don't remember very well what it said exactly (but it wasn't a long text, it pretty much said only that). Well, since the phone worked I didn't pay attention so I used WIFI and tried to install some apps like Skype, Barcode Reader or some Japanese Keyboard Input (like: google japanese input). The problem came when I tried to reboot the phone.
THE PROBLEM:
After pressing the center bottom and selecting "restart", the phone completly freezes when the text "Sony Ericsson" come out in the black screen. I can't access to the OS at all.
WHAT I HAVE TRIED TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM:
I tried waiting several minutes and extract the battery to reboot and try again, but it still freezes when the "Sony Ericsson" come out.
I tried accesing to the xRecovery (which I installed in order to root the phone), pressing several times back botton, but it doesn't work either.
Please can someone give me a help with this? I have read somewhere I might try installing the launcher again. Do you think that is the solution? Is it possible?
Thanks for advance
hello my friend .. i dont know about ur problem but for me launcher pro really sux and i didnt like it at all .. if u want a good launcher then download (Go launcher EX) from market .. and yeah also if u want good roms , i mean the best for x8 u have to use GingerDX or nAa minicm7 2.1.7 , u will find these roms in the dev. section . if u want my opinion about them i prefer nAa cause it is very smooth and perfect dual touch here the link .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19691591
just follow the steps and read everythink and do it at ur own risk . welcome to the x8 forum and have a nice day .

Just use PC comapnion from SE and repair you phone....and after that root your phone again and install rom( for rooting and cwm the best tool is x8toolbox)
Ok
Thanks for the replies. Thanks god I could make it works!
Just a couple of notes:
1.- The only way to access to the Xperia x8 was via flashing it.
2.- PC Companion didn't work at all. Even when I could access to the phone via flash, at last PCC gave a error message saying that there weren't any update to install. It seems SE doesn't support this phone yet lol
3.- What worked efectively was Flashtool (second option in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12442257)
But the ROMs listed in step 2 of that guide (X8 Shakira E15i_2.1.1.A.0.6_generic.ftf, X8_1.6_clear.ftf, X8_2.0.2_China.ftf, SE x8_2.1_rus.ftf) didn't seems to work to me. So instead of those, I searched and put into the "firmware" folder of Flashtool this oficial ROM:
http://www.multiupload.com/VKNI6Q6ET5
that I found in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1454954
What I'd like to ask now, just to not have the same problem again is, should I go for nAa for my Xperia X8?

It seems difficult breaking bootloader for a noob like me though xDD
You can use GDX without any problem with stock kernel. So, its not mandatory to open bootloader but its recommended if you want to try CM9 based roms.
If you try to open bootloader, please go through the threads on xda and make sure that its safe to open it. Some phones are not safe to open and you may get your phone bricked. Please check the number behind your battery on the phone and make sure from xda if its safe. Also s1tool tells if its safe or not.
Hello!
Well, thanks for your support I could revive my phone!!! And now I could install the nAa ROM!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU!
If it's possible I'd like to ask the last question, I've tried to install from Market an application for writting japanese keyboard: Japanese IME Kaede v3
[http:]//es.androidzoom.com/android_applications/tools/japanese-ime-kaede-ime-v3_dvn(dot)html
But the Market say "This device is not compatible with this element"
Is it possible? I mean, the official firmware I was using before trying to install this custom ROM allowed me to use it without any problem.
Have you ever got a message like this? Have I got to do something?
Thanks again

Your problem wasn't the launcher it was that you did something wrong while installing it that caused you to brick it. Always remember to factory reset your phone before and after flashing a rom just to be safe and to avoid errors.
GingerXperia V12 is quite old, go for V19 or V21b those are quite alot faster and worked really good for me, they also come with the Sony arc launcher so that's good. You also don't need to unlock your bootloader for those roms.

Actully I have the same problem on bootmenu manager, it is not available in the playstore and I even searched on apoide.com it fails to install, I have a motorola Razr XT910 with android 2.3.6 in latinamerica. I have rooted my device in order to install JB 4.1
If there is a link in wich we could download the .apk that would be awsome.
