im using Mini CM RC1 and its really great

floyo 0.15 is great too

Minicm rc1. I think its great especially with one finger pinch zoom and overclock modules, and now there's a video camera fix its awesome best rom in my opinion for x8.

Ahmed , the only thing that will bug you in using MiniCM or Floyo is Arabic language support , in the browser Arabic letters are separated and from left to right
I found this after trying Flashed Mini CM and floyo
i'm going to try BehradGH 2.1.1 ROM later ,he says that it have Arabic support http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955467

racht's floyo FTW. imho way better than CMmini, the overall performance is better, especially in games (both 2d&3d) where it's much smoother. plus, it has better theme (ye, i know you can change a theme, but in floyo you just get good one at start), and it's more stable for me.
the only bad thing about floyo is i can't install overclock module on it, i always get a bootloop. but i don't care about OC that much, since it doesn't improve the performance that much, even if benchmarks are showing some great improvement.

+1 to racht's Floyo v.15 in its speed and performance!
but not too stable (for me) also it drains battery a bit faster
in the case of MiniCM its good, couple of reboots (common bug) and feels like 95% complete.
now, the battle in 2.2 is between miniCM and floyo,
(wishing there will be more updates for floyo)

HELP! 2.3!!!! Help this noob over here =)

Hey guys, ve recently found out that androids can soon play playstation games. but it requires android 2.3 and above. so for x8s running of android 2.3(eg Gingerbread) can they play the playstation games? and can they support FLVs ?(according to my knowledge flash player needs 2.2 or above)
and also ve found out that sony has stopped updating x8 OS, eclair 2.1 is the latest and last ( or something like that) but since we can change our x8 to other OS like 2.3s , why are so many people still so frustated ? (just want to understand more ~ im a newbie)
I wanna use gingerbread 2.3....HELP
What is cynogen mod 7?
what does flashing roms mean? Why?
What is quadrant?
What should i start with? - Rooted, Link2sd, 2.1.1.a.0.6, the last 3 digits of my Baseband version is 015,
so many stuff - Flashing roms~ JiT ~ xRecovery ~
Which step should i take first? can somebody tell me haha.. just tell me what to do and ill go and search and download and THANK YOU! =)
People say the 2.3 is still not stable yet. Camera not working, wifi not working(but i believe that some of the bugs are fixed).. Can anyone tell me the latest condition? What's not working?
sorry for my bad english. Detail explainations would be lovely!!　TT

Hi
I dont know too much about playstation games to x8, but i dont think is so simply.
Flash player will not work in x8 because of cpu limitations
Quadrant: most popular benchmark app for android. See in market
Cyanogen mod is a good custom rom made by a xda member
Flash rom: install a custom rom
The most stable rom at the moment is the minicm 2.2.1 See that topic in x8 developement section. 2.3 is not too stable, has some bugs. Nor recommended for everyday use
Sent from my X8 using XDA App

Here you have custom rom's made by ratch's (thank's to him for his work)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914513
you must have Xrecovery instaled when you want to instal na custom ROM, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878426 here is the thread for xRecovery, see instruction's how to instal it
and beforre you get xRecovery you must root your phone (easyest way with SuperOneClick) search on youtube and you will see how that work...

OK thanks so much and what's Jit? and according to my knowledge xrecovery is for backing up the original firmware we ussing?

thanks dude. btw what dya mean by not recommended for everyday use? r u trying to say that the longer a not-so-good stuff is used in our phones, the more dangerous it will be? and does minicm2.2.1 require anything other than xrecovery?

yes for backup your curent OS and restore new (2.2 or 2.3 android)
I don't know exactly what is Jit, i just know that has to do with performanceof your phone!

for every custom you will need xRecovery, because you restore (or flash) miniCM or ratch's 2.2 or 2.3

Jit= just in time
Android 2.1 translate the java code with precaching, but if you enable jit the code interpreter translating in real time, doesnt use cache. So it is faster

Okay i wanna ask a question
Link2sd needs two partitions in ur sd..i have..One for normal usage and one for apps only.
I just installed cm7 rom and ive found out that it only uses the free space my first partition and the free space of my 1st partition becomes its "everything". so for my cm7 rom, theres no 2nd partition. how can i get link2sd work on my cm7 rom then?

2.3 roms use only fat32 partition. Backup data from sd and format sd as fat32

okay maybe im not detail enough..
i was using stock rom 2.1.1.a.0.6,
and my sd has 2 partitions, both FAT32 , i call them :
a) for normal usage
b) for creating links using link2sd
so now i installed the 2.3rom into (a) and it becomes as if it only has one partition. so im just wondering can we use the partition tool shown in the xrecovery menu to solve this, to divide my (a) into 2 partitions.
Sorry for being noob =)

Wolfbreak's 2.2, K010 kernel.

Taking photos in higher resolution than vga does now work?!

I think this will be the first custom kernel I will use. Now i just gotta figure out how to flash this.

Restoring backup of previous ROM. Even with patch I can't get wifi to work with CM Froyo of WolfBreak... Damnit, ROM was soo smooth and that stupid wifi didn't work.

I just wish there was a kind soul to tell me how to install Custom Kernel K10 on Wolf's ROM with Baseband 58.

hmmmm wolfbreaks rom works on .54/.55/.58 right??
In this case you'd need to flash a baseband patch (the cm6.52 one) and then the custom kernel

+1 @OP
I am still running a tweaked 2.1, but without the tools created by our wonderful dev's here I would still be feeling like i was robbed by SE.
Mr Rusch Gave me the ability to push framework so i could have a circle... sounds dumb and simple - and my wife still cannot understand why i am so happy with such simple MODs!!
Binary & Androxyde gave me Flashtool. snm, i am free to make as many mistakes as i know i will, safe in the knowledge i can flash a 2.1 anytime.
Z, legend, gave me recovery. now i can save my progress in the effort to make my x10 Xceptional.
Many others here deserve recognition, RoseRed, OmegaRed, DoomLord, X10iUser (my first line of help over @ AF) MyImmortal, PlayGunsta, Flo95.........................
Too many to mention, thanks all - I have learnt a great deal and contributed where i can, i am grateful for your time, skill and patience - and we all know you need lots of it, as we were all new once!!!! BOOKAI - you lot RULE

can someone write the procedure how to instal wolf rom with custom kernel on the bb 52 ?

From tot31:
1. Fresh install the stock rom with SEUS.
2. Root & install xrecovery using flashtool.
4. Flash the X10_52_ChangeBaseband.ftf using flashtool.
5. Reboot into recovery and wipe everything.
6. Install CM_6.1.3_[v006].zip.
7. Install CMFix_v6_v61.zip.
8. Install bb patch cm5bb49.zip.
9. Install 2.6.29.6 FX k010 froyo FXR busybox in xbin v06.zip (get it on the first page of WB's thread.
10. Reboot.

Hi guys,
This is my first thread and forgive me if im doing it wrong.
Im now using lewa os roms and i get it from this site http://www.xperiax8.com.pl/v0-4-t3103.html
link for rom is here http://www.4shared.com/zip/Yv4ZZt2R/A04__N_M_T.html.
use it with alf v8 for GDX(not CM7)because this rom is base from GDX.
This rom has few major weakness but i manage to overcome it with tweak and software.
Major Weakness
1.Poor 3d performance-Tweak it with Perfomance Boost by LtHuNTer_StepheN(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1503477)
2.No keyboard-install better keyboard(open zip files and install both apks)
3.USSD code wont work with default dialer-install and dial with fast_dialer_3.2.8mobihand.apk(if u feel annoying with reg pls help this guy & buy a full version)
4.Only have 2 lang(Eng & Chinese)i dont mind cause i always use English.
Greatest
-fast
-More free internal memory(less default apps)
-More free RAM
-beautiful ui(almost ferfect)
-Many themes-u can get it from here http://www.mediafire.com/?mfs8f6k81rzb5k9
-google apps-get it from here http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-gb-20110729-signed.zip(flash it after u flash the rom)
-build in swap,battery saver,RAM cleaner& Root Explorer(in chinese-i think a dev want us to learning chinese)
Warning
-make full wipe b4 install the rom
-flash chargemont fix for alf
-dont use with Naa kernel or wifi wont work
-i dont try it yet with stock kernell.Ur guys are welcoming to try it and please let me know the result
-lastly,dont blame me if u brick ur phone.its work fine for my x8 wih Alf v8

Isn't Better Keyboard a paid app? -_-
Or did you include the Lite Version?

I m pretty sure Lucastan96 has a difference rom cause it use with Naa kernell.Btw if u follow his thread,Weiku(post#10)has mentions about this rom(ROM ONLY).Believe me,nobody want a rom with major weakness like i said in my previous thread

Thanks anyway...so everything is working...?going to give a try

Yeah man...give it a try & pls post any comment in here.if anybody have better menthod to improve this rom,u are welcoming to share it.Im not sure if everything is working.As i know all basic fet. is working fine(call,msg,bt,wifi,games,camera&music).For me,i satisfy with it because it has difference UI from other CM7 roms.Im gonna stick with it until Paul xxx release full working version of CM9.(nobody will say no to ICS)

Does it have Any bugs?

I Actually Tested it.. And it Didn't seem to be quite impressive to be honest..
But okay..
Thanks for sharing anyway ;D

I don't know, Why some peoples are unliking the rom,
I found it really nice.
I had attached Antutu Benchmark screenshot.
You can see , its a great score without memory card score.
This rom is great in my views because it have a good UI with good performance.
It already stated that it has Poor 3D score.
I flashed Adreno library for ALFS ICS kernel.

I want to ask a question,
How to install themes ?????????????????????????

Hi there,
copy.lwt file to LEWA folder in SD and go to theme in menu or in setting(personal tap)and then import it.

very good style and the swapper option is very good!thanks

Sony Ericsson Keyboard
if someone want se keyboard here is Sony Ericsson Keyboard thanks to _Sparks

LOL didnt' know someone will post this rom here man i think u need permission from original thread (there is a link on xperiax8.com.pl) Bcoz xda is dev site unlike xperiax8. I mean xperiax8 is site where u can find everything to our x8 i was just posting a rom there to get to know others from my country About keyboard etc. i just simply took one from GDX and its working
P.S. Thsi rom should be working with all kernels (im using Stock kernel and its pretty fast)
Regards

Thanks uremytoy,its would be great news for our bro & sis With stock kernel.Many of them cant unlock bootloader and stuck with it forever.This rom will be good alternative for them.

This Rom have not option for wifi tether or usb !
