Waiting froyo from sony for my x8...

How long i must wait to get real froyo from sony ?.,i dont like custom room coz so many bugs, so many problem,and so difficul,want to get real froyo not a fake like a custom rom..

i think that sony won't give us froyo
and custom roms aren't "fake", they are real !!! and they are really good you just nedd to choose one

How can u say its a real..,its so many bugs and problem.,why dont just sell x8 and buy other phone with froyo,i think now its so many froyo phone with cheap price..samsung maybe.yeah...good idea..hahaha.

i am using jerpelea's cm7 and there is everything what i need and if you want another phone go and buy it but i won't buy another because x8 has good developers and they are just few steps away from bypassing bootloader ...

Oke fifo. Thank you for suggestion..,can i ask you..what its bootlooder and what a function for x8?.,sorry for my bad english...

Bootloader is the part of the phone that checks files when you try to update it, so it makes sure that the software you're installing is from sony...For now it has only been bypassed a bit through Xrecovery(that means we have custom ROM but no custom kernel....) . What we're waiting for is complete bootloader crack and we're very close...soon we'll have gingerbread and froyo with no problems + Dualtouch

How can u be sure that we ll get dualtouch?

...if you dont like the now availiable custum roms, make a better one.
SO COSTUME ROMS ARE FAKE AND GOOGLE'S SOFTWARE MODED BY SONY ERICSSON IS REAL..... are you sure..?

sony said that only x10 will receive android 2.3 in this year. Not plans for x8, today I installed cm7 fo racht, much better than official of SE, now i don1t have problem with space, i can install everything
try before make an opinion

keep dreaming on stock froyo

How can u say more better from official?..,official se not yet release froyo for x8..,how do you compare its?..-_-...haha.

Are you sure want to wait official ROM from SE forever?
If SE don't update x8 to froyo or above, are you keep waiting?
I think using Costume ROM is better option for now. Better than Eclair from SE. you can install many app. Even there some bugs and problems, many developer there to fix this. So just wait to fix better than wait forever from SE.

more better than v2.1

The likelihood of getting stock GINGERBREAD IS MORE LIKELY THAN stock FROYO.

It's better for some things.
But it does have a completely unworking camera [neither pics or videos], disabled FM, SD safe to remove reboots, and some other bug.
I also have this custom rom installed, because I have a Sony Alpha A-55 to shot some pics and don't ever need the X8 one... but this doesn't let me say that stock eclair is worst than any other custom kernel.
AFAIK, there is not a 100% full working custom rom til now.
The one and only rom which is 100% working is SE stock rom..

i will not wait for se official update because it won't happen but my hope now is that the devs here bypass this damn bootloader and give us custom kernel and a 100% working custom roms i cross my fingers !! go go brilliant devs we are all with you guys !

You'll never get the official Froyo from Sony..
They won't build one for X8..
The only way to get one is from custom ROMS..
Try elelinux v3, it's the most stable froyo rom.. No bugs at all.. Even for the rooted apps..

[Q] Can I find a complete Gingerbread without problems?

I have installed Gingerbread from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044876
but i have many problems. Some sensors do not work (compass), camera problems, some apps do not work, etc. I've tried to find solutions through xda but it's very comfusing!
Is there any complete Gingerbread?

no...not yet...but if you want a complete rom..you should try minicm..all are working on this rom.

No, altho ppl like racht and jerpelea for example are working on it to get one that's almost fully working. There can almost never be a 100% perfect rom tho. unless it's official SE

Even the official from se still not perfect and they wont release it for x8.i hv try many roms here and currently xcyanogen shakira are the best in my opinion..smooth not like the other roms.

[Q] question about new custom roms

hi, i want some help with it!
actually i have cyanogenmod gingerbread 2.3.7 with kernel 2.6.29 , by mur4ik
but now i have heard that he is not making or working on it anymore and there are another guys making new things with 2.3.7 for example the swiftdroid second life, or the custom rom made by pete and his friend.
i wanted to know if these ones are better versions than the one i have, or if they are behind it, and if those two are newer and better versions, wich one would you recommend for lg gt 540?,
and another thing, they talk a lot about kernels, really the mur4ik rom i installed was like a package so i really didn't even care about it
but now that are talking about it and wanted to know what is it , and why is better one or another
i heard some of the guys want to puto a .31 kernel instead a .29 and things like that, and well, i really don't know it so well
help with that please, thanks!

Well for kernels look it up on Google a bit too long to explain it here.
For l android 2.1 the best kernel to be used is .29 kernel for 2.2 it would be the .32 kernel and for 2.3 and 4.0(ics) it would be the .35/.38 or 3.0 kernel
As for roms you are using swiftdroid so keep it or then next best thing would be any 2.2 rom I recommend project Utopia but if I where you I will wait for Mike's asop 2.3.7 v6 to come out

I sure am waiting for V6 mike's rom.
For the looks of it i am waiting for mike´s rom V6 it should be fast and stable, just hoping he releases it ASAP....

try Pebe 2.3.7 v5.1 rom, im using it and its quite good!

Yes, the last pcf cm7 (.32) is very good. The only thing that it ends with the battery much faster than for example in pcf aosp 2.2.2 (.32)

Froyo optimum is great too
Amazing battery life and so smooth

just would like to say that if this is based on another rom like Gin2JB or TrueAncenstor then make sure you have permission to use their rom as a base.

well no they don't as for a start they are different android versions.
gin2jb = 2.3.4
trueancenstor = 2.3.7
so how can they be same base

its just be editing build.prop i can change my version to whatever i want like android 5.0 key lime pie,its just simple to do so

I would pick this over any stock based rom gin2j was laggy as hell for me so were the rest, when you try this Rom take it from me it's a great Rom the best for performance on stock kernel imo great job op

I feel sorry for you then, as if you really believe that then you shouldn't be developing a rom. 2.3.7 and 2.3.4 have different files not just a build.prop edit.

dude cut the guy some slack, he's trying to be helpful by developing a promising ROM.. you were the first one to fire up with sarcasm in the first place..
