Hello xda-developers!
I am really new on android development (i bought my xperia x8 phone before one month)
So i am having 2.1 android version and i want to update it into a stable + fast + without problems android version can help me how to find/install it?
There are lots of good roms but some need custom kernels and not all phones can get one.
If you are willing to unlock your bootloader you need to see the manufacturing date on the white sticker below the battery. If it is 11w29 or older then you will have a very big chance of bricking the phone if you try to unlock it. You need to use a rom that supports the stock kernel in this case.
If you CAN unlock the bootloader then you also have better roms at your disposal.
Go to the x8 general forum and read the stickies. Search for tutorials and how-tos'..

Hi Engigr
I noticed you are new so before anything else
Welcome to the community.
Please take some time to Introduce Yourself and read FORUM RULES.
Hope you enjoy your stay here, and help others in the future.

This thread is about development, for any other guides you should look here
Hey guys, our beloved phone hasn't got so many developers. So we should encourage the users to do something with their free time, let's call it development.(I an one of them too )
So the idea is: if anyone has some knowledge maybe he will want to share with us. For example: I will do some research and if I am lucky, I will find some guides for beginners in development.
After a while we can even make a document with everything that was posted here.
Useful links:
1) http://stackoverflow.com/ //there you go, you can ask everything about development there but don't forget to come here and share what you have found
2) https://github.com/munjeni/android_device_htc_golfu //ICS CM9 sources for our phone thank you munjeni, for your work
Basic things: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/index.php?title=Doc:_Building_Basics
You might have heard the word "git", here is a short explication from Cyanogen
How to port
*here is a nice guide for ROMS
Note: You can port from almost any device but you can try devices similar to our device like LG P500, HTC Explorer, Samsung Galaxy Ace,HTC Wildfire S, Samsung Galaxy Gio etc
*here or here is how you can port any theme to any build
!Compiling things on a virtual machine isn't that good.

Please remember that aircombat has already written some guides for the device. So this'll purely need to be a development based thread.

Closing this as it doesn't really serve any purpose. All information with regards developers and the 10 post rules can be found by searching (forum rules, XDA Portal, Rec Developer application form etc etc)
I'm not a developer and i've just arrived into the LG world with the new LG L4-II, a slightly smaller and cheaper version of the L5-II, but with exactly the same base hardware.
I have already rooted it using the tutorial here, available for the L5-II, but i've yet to see any ROM development for this new line of devices, so i decided to share a link with the community that shows that the full Source Code for these devices has already been released by LG.
I hope it will be useful for the developers, so that some day in the near future we see some custom Roms for these new devices.

Cheers to all.
Thank you about the link and the information. I do hope someone takes the second generation ( II ) of the L models seriously. Almost no one is working which makes most of us sad
Could you be so kind to give me a link to the rooting tutorial? And may be the steps you've followed? Because I want to root my phone too.
Thanks and cheers to all guys who share useful info and modded roms with us!
thanks for this man. it helps a lot
BL unlock needed!
This is kind of useless, untill we get bootloader unlock. I've managed to build recovery.img for MT6575 chipset with some tools and also flashed it to E440, but bootloader is blocking the recovery boot due to security reasons, but boots in normal mode(Android)... i can share recovery.img if someone need it.
Update: I have boot.img and bootloader image, too - everithing except /system and /data
Added: Ops... My bad. now I think it is kernel related security check, will take a look at the kernel source and try again. I'm not a DEV, just playing.

Thank You :good:
Vivo has not releasing their kernel source code for their device. We need a top hacker to hack in their website and get their kernel source code. If the kernel source code does not stored in the web where did they store it?
Edit:Could somebody dismantle an vivo v11 and try to search for the kernel source code? I don't know if this will work or not but they suck I can't even root or unlock the bootloader I guess I will stuck with funtouch os/color os forever because I can't even root my oppo too ?
I've always avoid oppo and vivo because it always ended up like this.
Next time I will avoid VIVO phones like a plague. :crying: :crying: :crying: They make nice phones though but poor DEV support.
I only wish someone could find a way to root the phone successfully. I don't care about custom rom.
Root only for removing space junks for more ram space. A V11i Phone owner here. :crying: :crying:
I will spread the word to my friends.
(Mediatek MT6771 Helio P60) KERNEL (ONLY FOR THOSE WHO ARE INTERESTED)
Can someone look at this please? Any DEV or Someone as NOKIA released its KERNEL same with our chipset maybe there is still hope that our phone might have root or even twrp.
https://github.com/nokia-dev/android...l_nokia_mt6771
Please correct me if i am wrong for I am just optimistic about it.
for more sources you can look here:
https://github.com/nokia-dev
Edit:
Please forgive me for spamming the threads for hoping a DEV can see this and criticize if this is feasible.
