doggydogg: on stock rom or custom rom?

Maybe i should try overclocking my stock rom.

custom. tried on elelinux 003 & miniCM 1.0.0
currently using doixahn's FroyoBread 007. also works

Is there any 3rd party stamina battery for X8 that is safe to use?

Charging once every 2 hours of surfing/gaming sucks, even with minimum brightness.
*
which ROM u using? Stock or 2.2.1?
AFAIK, stock kinda consuming batt. Newer custom ROM has better battery management system

My friend sent his X8 to a phone shop to get it updated to android 2.3.7 and ended up with a bricked phone cause by that phone shop.

Now, which according to him stuck at the white "Sony Ericsson" logo...Which i know is a soft brick and most probably can be saved by flashing it with PCC or SEUS or FlashTool.

I have ask him to flash it with SEUS or FlashTool, but not successful, still stuck on the SE logo, i doesn't know weather he do it wrongly or does not has any patient...

I am thinking to buy this phone from my friend, and repair the phone myself.
I want to ask u guys is there any other reason for the phone to stuck at the SE logo other than bricked phone? Could it be a hardware prob?

FlashTool logs:

Too bad, my fren lives very far away from me...cannot test the device personally...
Is there any other clues about this bricked phone?

Get the flashtool. Install it, check in the folders it will have the drivers for most sony phones inside. X8 is inside too

if u plan to use android, i strongly suggest u look for phones with 512mb ram. x8 ram is too little, use abit, the whole thing will jam up

best is check n see if it's the original kernel on the phone.

Use SEUS to flash back to stock. Note that you lose your root, bootloader become locked again and your kernel is restored back to stock kernel.
Stock rom do not rotate your homescreen, so its normal. Only custom rom can do that

I recently flashed my rom to GDX 29, guess what google identified my phone as now

you need to edit build.prop

For me, I used Rom toolbox pro to do it.
