[Q] X8 Keeps rebooting - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all
I have a X8 .. was rooted and had installed the xrecovery a while back but until my phone froze and had to install the stock one from the pc suite. Well .. done that succesfuly ..phone worked like 10 minutes and then it went crazy again . Now it`s rebooting on and on .. Dunno what baseband i`m on curently now .. recovery doesen`t work anymore .. :| All I now is that i`m on android 2.1 update 1 ( I think ) and i have a logcat that goes like this http://pastebin.com/index/LDgYKHkM ( sorry .. didn`t knew how to make pastebin apear here :> )
I`d appreciate if anyone could please read the logcat .. and give me a solution.
Thx alot

Anyone? Please?

Sorry i cant help, i asked a friend to look but all he said was to repair with pc companion or use flashtool to flash new baseband. There is a thread in x8 development on basebands. Sorry i cant be more help, i only posted to assure u your not been ignored. Il keep asking and searching until i find an answer. Good luck and if you find a fix would you post here in the hope that othes that might have the same problem stumble upon it.

Thx ... really apreciate that u replied I`ve flashed the last few days some Roms .. and nothing seems to work :| The best i`ve got from an official Rom was about 7 hrs .. and then it went crazy again ) Now flashing the 1.6 :| I`m starting to think this is not a software related problem .

Its very strange, it may be the kernel thats at fault, my wife updated to 2.1 through pc companion but somehow kept the old kernel and her phone went crazy. Random reboots, wifi drop out and couldn't install large apps like angry birds. It may have been that she kept old baseband but upgraded the kernel, i forget now. But the problem was solved when they were both updated. Did you root each time you fixed it? Or does it still mess up without root?

1.6 seems to work properly .. so I don`t think it`s a hardware related problem ... now i`m really pissed!

Check the baseband so. It's sounds like your on old baseband. Flashtool should sort it and allow 2.1 update. There's a thread here somewhere, I'm on mobile app so can't post link. I'm having a few probs myself, just upgraded to new froyobread 2.3 and everything force close. Don't you just love technology.

There have been people here who were adventurous enough to go ahead & flsh their phones to whatever they wanted. A few of them got their phones BRICKED. Cant to ahead, cant go back, STUCK. They went & complained at the service centers that they were trying to update via Kies, the official Samsing software & god knows what went wrong, its BRICKED. I think they ended up convincing them. Well, tjis is the gist of what I have learned from the forums, its your call, you take it. I am from Hubli, Karnataka, India. I hated the stock ROM, updated to JG4 via Kies, Hated it, Updated to JPC, Loved it, Updated to JPH, aahhh, beautiful.
There's a thread here that points to the Stock DDJG4 ROM for India if you want to revert back.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=771262
Like I said guys, its YOUR CALL.
PS : JPC & JPH are Betas & 23rd is the date set for official Froyo release.
hi praneeth.. nenu update chesanu .. its safe .. dont worry.. update to JG4 and i will provide u rooted rom which is suitable for us... and i will also provide unroot rom which gives us our warranty back. so dont worry...............
Hi Ragin can u post ur information which firmware u flashed and which rom u put...
i m dying to see my phone naked... wanna customize yaar... and also can u please tell how to download themes with metamorph................
I didn't understand the problem with roms.
Can you enlighten me please.

Guys, I am from Bangalore and living with JG4. I havent applied any lagfix or GPS fix.
I am generally happy with JG4 but yea, havent seen a offical update in a while.
I am rooted: Search for 1-click Root/Unroot for Galaxy S
With a click you can root yourself and can unroot too - for warranty reasons.
Never observed a lag as such but I use AutoKiller Memory. Keeps my phone smooth; no lags.Try the aggressive setting.
GPS works good, fix is fast and position perfect. I use Google Navigation [BRUT], yes you can use the US Google navigation here in India with spoken street names - hows that. Recently I did a Bangalore - Pondicherry drive just on Google Navigation and it was awesome. I had all internal village roads mapped and navigated me through it. As you already know, the stock official Google Navigation doesnt work.

Have a good one.

KingHarsha - here you go
Search 'brut google maps 4.4' in google. Use the first link to load BRUT versions while keeping your stock google maps and navigation versions. Use the Stockified versions if you want to replace teh stock ones. I didnt do that, and I am comfortable with BRUT versions sitting near the stock ones.
No you have to pay data charges. But seeing that you are on this phone, I guess you already have data enabled on your PC. And yea you stay in chennai, so definitely you have 3G as well. I switched to dreaded BSNL just to get 3G services.
But dont worry abt data too much. Surprisingly it doesnt uze that much. If you have wifi at home, just setup your flightplan and it will download tiles along your way. tiles are big enough so if you detour or so, you are still within the downloaded area. U need to enable cache in brut menu.
Personally, I dont use the voice directions in city. It doesnt give instructions but it says a sentence. thats too much to decode while driving. But that problem exists in original sw as well. I kept it on during my roadtrip and I had great experience. First thing you will notice is that its smooth, your car doesnt update in jumps or maps dont move in jumps, they just smoothly rotate or move. Alternate routes, layers on teh way...its all there and its great.
Best part is oneways etc gets updated frequently and automatically since u connect to the cloud. When a flyover construction started, within a month it started routing me with the official detour posted on the road by traffic authorities. So thats great.
Well, thats my experience though.
Just search for 'one click root unroot galaxy S' on this forum. Not sure if it will work for you since you are already rooted.
Guys,
Looks like i am taking the dive and installing lagfix. I see 2 options - oneclick lay fix, or cflagfix.
Do you guys recommend any one of these?
Also in cant so 3buttons recovery and need to do that using clockmod's reboot to recovery option. Song if things don't work while Installation in will have to use odin only to reflash ddjg4. Something in have never done.
Song in was thinking of following sequence titanium backup - clockmod backup- odin reflash ddjg4 - install oneclick root - install oneclick lagfix / cflagfix - titanium restore.
If things break while installation of lagfix like in have seen phone not rebooting for many after installation of fix, then abort and reflash ddjg4 again.
Plz send in your comments. Any better way to do this. You can also say dont be so scared as you might have guessed i am sh$%the scared to do this and gathering my guts right now.

What 'Knzo MOD"? If you have Nova8 then you have the latest kernel. unless you flashed the newly posted, which is for CM7 gingerbread then you have a problem.
im going to test this method this night since im still in school
ive tried to use lg's program to flash stock rom,but i cant get in to s/w download mod with volume+ key
ive tried to flash official rom before and i could get into download,but i cant get into it this,it is disapointing

Try reflsshing the ROM with its default kernel. If you're set on flashing the stock ROM and its still not detecting, make sure you're mounted properly in you're flashing tool.

Of course it's a big problem. the kernel is the heart of operating system. In Android, not every build of kernel are compatible. So before do anything with your phone, especially playing with kernel/ROM, please... please.. READ THE GUIDE or INFORMATION about it...

sorry to trouble you,thx for your ans

Of course it still can fixed.. you must have been landing on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275315 do you? Guided there...
Before do that,
First, can you access ClockWorkMod via press+hold Power Button, and press continually Volume-Up, till you got into CWM menu?
If you can do it, then wipe date/cache. (to anticipate zero free space of internal memory)
Second, unbrick your phone.
sorry !!!

Seems strange to start happening now . Isn't the kernel an overclocked one ? maybe the OC is causing errors .
Do you have a std Boot Rom to try pushing to the phone?
A quick browse on google or even just on here should give you a download for one.
The other thing you could try is DLing the Nameless Rom . He has a Boot img in the file that you push to the phone first before installing his Rom .
I don't believe you can just use his Boot img as I'm fairly certain it is speciffically for his Rom .
I also think you might have more luck if you posted your problem in SeannyM's thread . He's very helpful and is the maker so would have a much better idea than me . Also there are plenty who are using his Rom and they may have had similar issues to you and know how to fix them .
Good luck , hope this helps
Im having thr same problem and i think its unfixable ,i wrote it down to the seannym topic but no response from him so we need to w8 till the new rom comes Up.

You can extract a std boot omg from here to tryhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092147
Just extract the boot img and try that first with the Explsion Rom . If there are still problems then it's very likely the Rom . You can use the same linked thread and just re-flash std . Or you can just DL Nameless . You can run it stock or OC .
Just post in here if you have any problems and I'll try and help .
All the best

We would like to thank everyone here for users who have helped me and supported me evaluated
Roms for x8 made ​​me nicely due to the fact that there is still very popular to the users

Few beginner questions.

Hello guys I just sold my 4S and bought this Note 1 , anyway im new to android flashing and this stuff , ive heard that its way different than iOS restoring which is really easy and simple. Right now i got a few questions , If i missed a step or did something wrong it'll render my device unusable ofcourse , but will it be unrecoverable ? Thats the first thing. Second thing is that is it recommended that i install custom roms? right now i need one's with the Water Ripple effects on lockscreens , or if you can just tell me how to install the effect without custom rom's that'll be helpful because i want to flash official 4.1.2 jelly bean first and then the lockscreen effect. Im just new to the Android stuff and i dont know where to start Same feeling back in 2008 when i bought my first iPhone and got confused n' all
Read around for awhile, its what got me started when I first came here.
Again, read, read read, and avoid asking questions which have been answered countless times its annoying really.
Start with this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997, understand it by heart before attempting to root/flash on your new Note :good:
I dont really get anything , extract till tar what does that mean?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
If you just install stock official 4.1.2 rom via odin, it should come with the ripple effect.
Or if the update is already available in your country, you can just update it to the latest official rom via kies.

You'll notice that all of the download links are zip files.
You just need to extract the zip file until you find the .tar file.
Get 7-zip if you don't already have an archive reader.
Help with kernel
So recently I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note GTN7000 and flash it with franco kernel, then when I turned on my phone the bluetooth is not working and it constantly crashes and get stuck (The screen just go green and pink like an old TV with bad signal). So I panicked and unroot it immidiately. But that didnt seem to solve the problem.
So my question is, can I flash it with the original kernel. If so how? and where can I get it. can you teach me. (NOOB REQUEST )
just flash the stock rom again... using PC odin
Alright guys thanks for the reply , i heard theres a way you cab install roms without pc since i just want to install official 4.1.2 , ill do some research

Yep, there's a way to install roms without PC, using mobile Odin, but before that you should have your phone been rooted first.
Well i can upgrade with PC but im kinda afraid .. All i want is just updating to jelly bean official on my note , I searched for about 2 days and learned how its being done but while searching i came to posts showing people crying cause they got their phone bricked cause of kernel blah blah , i also saw at the end of the installation guides that it will get my phone in a boot loop or stuck at samsung logo and im not sure xD i just want to update and im taking it seriously cause i dont want to brick my phone ..

Wait a few minutes. Let me get on my PC and I'll give you step-by-step instructions.
Now, do this:
Since you're scared, we'll do this the safest way possible
1.)Download a stock GB rom from here.(You can always come back to this ROM if you run into any trouble).Flash it via PC Odin.
2.)Wipe data and cache from recovery (Press Vol Up+Power+Home when phone is off in order to boot to recovery)
3.)Download stock JB rom from here.Flash it via PC Odin.
OR
1.)Update using Kies.
You're done
Alright ill do this when i get home , hehe thanks man ill update this thread if i get into any trouble

No chance of loops/errors/bricks or anything or installing additional kernels like some people said cause that's whats confusing me ... i dont really want any custom kernal i want jelly bean stock ... if anybody could guide me through skype i'd be thankful
EDIT: Iv'e read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633938 thread carefully and it says that if you wipe using Settings you will get eMMC bug , i was on 4.0.4 and wiped but it booted normally without any problems (No loops No Restarting on its own No lags) and it was smooth , even though that app from playstore says my chip is insane .. Somebody explain this :S ?

Yes, then you'll have gingerbread. Don't forget to wipe after installing gingerbread.
It may brick. Not definite that it will brick. Still, better safe than sorry. Never wipe on stock ICS kernel!

Read around for awhile, its what got me started when I first came here.
Again, read, read read, and avoid asking questions which have been answered countless times its annoying really.
Start with this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997, understand it by heart before attempting to root/flash on your new Note :good:

Well said mate. Was going to say exactly the same. People seem to rethink it's a manned help site.
We will help but help your self first. That's how you learn.

I actually read and made my research already , and also successfully upgraded to jelly bean and i must say , i made a big mistake >.< The performance is crap and the phone gets overheated in a few minutes on both note 1 and 2 ( Its on 4.1.1) Im not really into kernels or custom rom flashing cause i already had a bad experience when i emmc bricked my old s2 thats why i take my steps carefully with this note. Ill downgrade to 2.3.6 and ordered an original battery (Yeah im using fake one stupid i know) and see of that fixes it. Appreciate your help guys , thanks
