I have experience a problem today for the first time. When I connected my Xperia X8 to charge it, for some reason the screen became blocked and I was not able to do anything. after about a hour it started to work again but the phone was really slow. after few minutes screen became blocked again.
Could you tell me what the problem could be?

Do u use underclocking or undervolting?
You may need to do a full wipe due to solve problems

reinstall the rom,and see if the bug still exist,if yes try to go back to stock rom using pcc,or update service.If the bug is still on stock that may be a hardware problem i think.

My phone was doing this when I was using alfs kernel. If you are using alfs try to move to nAa kernel. Since I use that no such problem occurs.

Screen going off causes reboot

Hi there. First timer on the forums
I have searched all around the place and on google, and so far I haven't found nobody (with a X8, a guy with the same exact problem on a HTC Thunderbolt? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1147670, can't understand his solution, doesn't apply to X8 AFAIK) with the same problem I have. The thing is, the phone reboots when the screen goes off unless it is charging or playing music in the background. Even if I lock it with the power button. Screen goes off, ten seconds from there, Sony Ericsson logo.
So far I've tried 3 roms since I got the phone, GingerDX (didn't recognize my SD, discarded it instantly), Gingerbread (reboot issue, didn't like it either D and now I'm using Gingercruzt (reboot issue, I'd like to keep it). All the roms were on their latest version as of today.
Does anybody know any solution to this?
Thanks in advance!!!
UPDATE: I'm sorry I didn't dare to try everything before. I wiped everything and started to install all apps one by one and it's working so far, haven't installed them all, gotta check if maybe one of them is causing issues.
It worked. For a while. Installing too many apps (if 11 can be considered too many) causes the reboot issue, after getting tired went back to Froyobread, it was working, but when I tried to connect to a Adhoc wifi connection, it started to reboot again on screen lock. I'm just tired of this, I'm gonna try kuyadroid and maybe some other rom... but does anybody have any idea why this is happening?
Kuyadroid reboots when i connect through wifi but only sometimes, when it reboots and i connect again it dont reboot on screen timeout.

[Q] Galaxy S screen keeps blinking?

Hi, my SGS is working fine all the while. But sometimes after i unplug the power adapter upon fully charge, the screen keeps blinking in the way like loading home(loading icons)->black screen->loading honme-> black screen->.....
it repeats for very a long time, even if i manually screen off then unlock the screen, the blinking problem still repeating. Until i reboot the device, it works fine again... Happened once in the middle of playing game, it suddenly 'jump' to home screen and the blinking problem begin
Wonder if this related to system crash and cause home screen keeps loading on and off or hardware problem... did anyone experience this?
I've never heard of this before. To diagnose whether it's a hardware problem, your only bet would probably be to flash a clean firmware. Maybe someone will have heard of this though.

thx mate for suggestion seems like its only me having this problem, so far has been flashed 2 custom roms, and problem persists, i think need to flash it back to old GB stock rom to compare it.. sadly warranty period has expired, hope its not related anything with hardware issue..

Try a stock firmware, that should tell you whether or not it's a hardware issue. If it isn't, it's probably kernel related. Hopefully you can figure it out!
i have got the same problem too.. =(( how to fixed it.. the screen keep blinking...
Flash stock firmware . Then if its fixed pls report here.

I've flashed from 2.1 to 2.3.6 and still it's blinking
Does anyone know how to fix it?
same issue
hi,
i have the same issue as well with 2.3.6, BaseBand version I9000XXJVU.
It is not a stock rom and it started appearing just a few days ago. It happens when i plug to charge it and after unplugging it. I have not noticed when it stops.
A friend of mine has the same issue, but with 2.3.4 stock firmware, so i think it is not firmware related.
Any new info on this? what could i provide for further troubleshooting
Main issue is of course that it drains the battery quite much and also allows you to mistakenly unlock the phone when the screen is on, so i was forced to put patter or PIN lock.
Cheers...

If you have ChatOn app try to uninstall it. Did work for me. (I my case the issue appeared when the internet was accessed via any browser. Same blinking pattern though)

[Q] Overclocking and vibrations

Hey. I had some problems with vibrations recently - they did not want to work at all. Eventually, after installing a few roms and kernels, I had to give my phone to the repair service. They managed to fix the problem (or did they ? The phone had some better moments when the vibrations were broken, so maybe they just let it "rest" and found out that it's working again). Anyways, after a week or so, I have the same problem. I had my phone overclocked to 19-729Mhz with SmartassV2 governor. After restoring the default setting, after around 4 hours the phone has it's vibrations back. My question is - is there any connection between those two things ? Maybe the phone gets too much heat and somehow stops the vibrating thing ?
Regards
Try full wipe...

Umm... you didn't quite get what I tried to say there. I fully wiped the phone countless times before when the problem appeared for the first time. Flashing new kernels and installing new ROMs did not help, so I gave the phone to the repair service. After a few days with my phone being overclocked I had the same situation as before. Now after I switched to default CPU settings, my vibrations are back after +/- 4 hours. Wiping data and cache has really nothing to do with it.
Regards
So maybe it is just like You said - OC causes overheating and some connections on MOBO may not work due to temperature. What is the biggest OC without rebooting on Your mobile?

As I said in the 1st post, I managed to run it for a week with 729Mhz. Then the vibrations stopped working. I'll keep my phone on 600Mhz for a while and see if it's the issue.
Unfortunately, after those few hours, my vibrations decided to stop working again. Guess it's time to give it to the repair service again...
Well maybe try using different governor. Not for evveryone smartass works well

I installed the stock rom and stock kernel with SEUS and my vibrations are still broken so I'm quite sure it's hardware related. I checked the warranty card yesterday - it say's they only "updated" the software, even though I told them I've already done that twice before giving them the phone and I suggest checking the hardware... Phone's in the repair service again. I hope I'll get it next week and I hope they'll fix it this time.

[Q] my xperia x8 turns on and off again and again

Hello everyone.
I just got my xperia x8 from my brother because he didn't know how to fix it.
The phone seems like it has not even a scratch.
The issue is that everytime i turn it on it is just turning on and off and on and off again and again.
I don't even have time to input my pin.
The battery always seems to be drained although i charge it occasionally.
I have updated it's os with pc companion, but it keeps doing the same thing.
Is there anything that i can do to fix it?

try to flash stock frimware through flash tools(this wipes the data & reinstalls the system partition)
Normally flashing fixes all software fault but if your hardware is damaged so you shouldnt be hopeful.
I think its a sw problem but even an empty battery can cause exactly the same react.(put another battery then try flashtools)
Hope i could help you

that's our little greek secret... no modifications to the software but he kinda had troubles with this mobile for the whole period of time he owned it.he didn't receive messages in the particular device as far as i can remember. the battery doesn't seem to have anything wrong though.it is just sliiiightly puffed but nothing that alerting.i mean i havent charged it for a long time and it can still power the mobile's "neverending loop". if there was a problem wouldnt it not turn on at all or something? i don't have an extra battery and i'm thinking of getting through with the flash stock romafter i charge it a bit.. should i? and if yes, how? i've never done that (a guide would be great )
