whatever i do x8gesture doesn't work for me
anyway thanks you all

It doesn't work in stock browser but will work on opera/angry birds etc. I'm talking about stock rom. This is not real multitouch, it's fake, so you have to do it like in the video put one finger and then the second and it will work, also you should put the second finger oposed to the first and not in a straight line.

It works every where if you install it....
Stock browser just dont support pinch zoom.
(Try also to active it while you are opening the notificarions, and see what fanny thing happends.)

no, it's a fake dualtouch, only for zoom

I give up, tried racht's rom, jerpelea's rom and ponanovn minicm who are supposed to have preinstalled the module and... it doesn't work!! , tried also with the new version of the module by andrej456 (manual installation on my stock SE rom E15A 2.1.1.A.0.6 baseband xx15) and nothing happens...
a shame.. im thinking that is a hardware related problem, i bought my phone on march, maybe it has diferent hardware :S (i really dont know about that kind of things...)

I hope somebody can give a solution, many people may have this problem...

[Q] some problems right here!

Hi guys!
I am writing here in order to describe you my situation with my x8.
I had installed miniCM beta 2 and everything was OK but due to random reboots (apparently without reason, I had not ever used root apps), I had decided to reinstall 2.1 by SE, everything was OK untill I installed app2sd script for 2.1.1 through xRecovery my phone was OK but in market I cannot see in Downloads section any old apps (even if I can run them simply) but if I install them by market it recognises them and put them in the download list.
ps: i cannot download angrybirds (as well as miniCM)
help me please

Just flash new market, its somewhere in forum
Sent from my U20i using XDA Premium App

But I have speedy got the new market :S
Sent from my E15i using XDA App

There are a few market updates available that should fix this problem

The problem for random reboots maybe is for the overclocking, for the problem of the market i don't now, but if you wanna download angry birds you need format cache
greetings from Chile

Are these updates aviable for 2.1 by SE?
Ps: I am looking forward to a Rom with Sony customization I mean for example no black screen receiving calls but buttons as 2.1 where I can find this? Thanks

some of the things you mentioned aren't actually bugs, it's just we can't get flash and n64oid working on our devies, ony any roms, because the armv7 cpu is needed, these apps don't support armv6 devices. btw, you can install n64oid on 2.3 roms, however the app gets FC after loading a rom.

MiniCM is the best right now but dont jump to RC2 yet . there are a lot of other roms developed using minicm base like the nexus rom which have been uploaded by the devs . spend some time reading through the development forum to get the idea.
They all have the standard bugs tho. Elelinux is supposed to best in terms of random bugs but minicm has everything working including camera and hd video recording.
P.S - gingerbread roms are also really good but there are some sacrifices to be made there .

YES THIS IS MY OWN WORK !!!! that flash from the chinese android tablet pc has many errors and slows your phones cpu by too much it drains the battery and causes browser to stop in the middle of veiwing the web pages and it can sometimes lead to wierd behaviour. i have solved all these issues with my flash 10.2 and my new flash 10.3. these are no issuie with my flash players. these are made from ENGLISH real adobe flash players not chinese ripp offs. if you want to keep a good battery life and have no issues then simply use mine

i was working on flash 11 but tbh i think 10.3 is high enough as 11 is way way way to much hardware dependent for our ARM6 to cope with that is near on impossible so sorry this will be last update every1

Works on MiniCM6. Thanks

Can any1 confirm flash 11 working? I asked for test results but no1 posted any

I tried 10.3 in YT and it worked ok at 240p but lags terribly at 360p. This is still great, I wonder how well it does in websites. I can't think of a heavy flash site right now, anyone has examples?

[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 .

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12442257

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?
I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350484
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.
