Hi guys! I have created this new thread for not messing up any more Owain94's excellents threads. Kudos to him (thanks boss).
Slade87 has modified my a overclock.zip to install via xrecovery, so default max speed is set to 749 MHz, but with setcpu, you can modify it as you want really easily. same to min freq.
So kudos to Slade 87, another big boos. Thanks so much mate.
The module to overclock our cpu has been developed by doixanh, so thanks so much mate. You are a big boss too.
With low frequencies, battery is undervolted (122, 245, 320, 480), so drain is much less.
I have mine set up to 749 and it is stable at all, but i have tried higher freqs, and 768 works fine too (few reboots, and i got 1349 in quadrant, became top of the list).
Hope you like it
Quick install guide:
- Copy attached file to sdcard
- reboot into xrecovery
- select install custom zip and install oclock.zip
- reboot
- run setcpu and press down-left silver button. Select autodetect device
- reboot
- run setcpu and move sliders to desired freq. Warning, i have issues over 768. Never select set on boot if going so far
EDIT: If you try higher freqs than 749, be sure to unmark first "set on boot" option.View attachment 566537View attachment 566634View attachment 566926

update script ist totally wrong.
you should change it
don't flash update script wrong in his zip.
you can copy the files inside the zip by hand. i recommend to go to the x8 development forum and download the newest .ko file from the thread and install these instead.
here is the fixed update script
works now, previously quad score was 943.
after overclock, 1058.
Thank you slade and galaningenieros!
Works great for me!
anyone experience this problem: continuously restarting, non-stop. Please make a disable script for me please !!1
just replace the hw_config.sh with the original one.........
Now my device stop, then reboot...

First post updated with Slade87's script. Thanks so much guy.
For people having trouble with the script, update with Owain's rom, but in advance just update system, so data won't be lost, and then modify in the script the file hwconfig, whre is written x27, and type x20, then reflash it, and modify freq with setcpu.

You can use android kitchen to cook custom roms
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
Can someone provide the modified vendor files for kitchen to cook X8 roms ?
If you have a friend who cooked roms before for hero/legend/g1/nexus devices, ask him to cook one for us, this is the fastest way
For those who never cooked a rom, this link might be a start :
http://source.android.com/porting/build_system.html
Cooked rom should use our original 2.6.29 kernel of eclair and our rild libs, rest of system should be prelinked to those files.
Gingerbread (2.3) is available in AOSP repository, there's a very good chance we could have it running before SE release froyo if ever.
I have tried this rom Prime from LG Optimus P500 (same cpu and screen).
Flashed with xRecovery, than before rebooting copied over xRecovery files back to flash (to be able to return to my backup).
To enable "adb logcat" debug, put adb-enable file in /data/property/ directory.
The rom booted, i saw android 2.2 bootscreen, but than it crashed..

Thanks it worked but i installed busybox from market and then after that i installed the apk file for X10 the big diden't work then a replaced the files with the ones for X8/X10mini and now it works
For those who can't have it work try like this
1. Download and install busybox from marketplace
2. install this apk file http://www.mediafire.com/?prj83693lv94lut its the xrecovery for X10 big but install it anyway
3. download the real files for xrecovery in the first page http://www.mediafire.com/?lz6gwgohuakvbfo
4. move extract the files you downloaded to your sdcard
5. Use Root explorer to copy/move the busybox, chargemon ant the xrecovery.tar to system/bin after you done that it should work
Updated:Now for latest firmware and script modified to make work app2sd, thaks to juanyunis.
Download scriptallinone (firmware 2.0.2.A.0.24): scriptallinone
Download script (firmware 2.0.2.A.0.54 no menu and no app2sd): script
I have done a simple bash script to install xrecovery, a custom bootanimation and reboot option on power-menu. It's helpfull when you reflash. Only for 2.1. Needs root.
If you want a custom rom to install in your phone, have a look at here. Sorry the video does not show app2sd or menu.
If you find this usefull, please donate
Just unpack the rar in sdcard, you'll find a folder "archivos" and the script. Install a console emulator and type:
- su (accept superuser permission)
- cd sdcard
- sh script.sh
After reboot, remove the folder "archivos" and the script.
If you have a custom bootanimation.zip, just replace the one in the folder "archivos" with yours.
that's all
would b happy if u add app2sd and jit also to it ...
nice work!
adding JiT and app2sd is a great idea too.
and maybe options for the user to install what he/she wants?
(tested working btw)

Watch the video for running script and restoring from update.zip here
Tester have told me that script is working properly, could anyone here try it up as well?
Thanks for the script - All of the options worked perfectly - except app2sd - installing busybox now - will see if it helps
Edit: yep - App2sd didn't work - says something about folder not found
Edit2: Will try changing the Ext4 partition to Ext2 tomorrow & will let you know
▐▄▀▄▀▌ TUTORIAL CWM roms are the way to go right now!!!
THIS IS A TUTORIAL TO GET CWM ROMS UP AND RUNNING ON UR RHODIUM
SO i felt completely compelled to share my amazing experience and results with my CWM rom!!!!
i almost always try to keep the development process here away from other sites
if you want a REALLY GOOD WORKING version of android on your device without trying NAND ... follow my instructions...
first off i have a ATT Tilt 2 i have been using with this..
to find anything you need to know on android for our phones go HERE
(Neopeek site)
any size card should do for runing CWM builds,,, i however am runnig an 8gb class 4 sdhc and all is well
MY recommended partition sizes... (i set 300mb as all my EXT2 partitions just to make calculating it easier...)
(primary) FAT32 - storage for music videos pics etc... rest of space
(primary) EXT2 - 200-300mb (system) holds rom build... none are over 250mb
(primary) EXT2 - 200-300mb (data) data for android... i believe is the space for app install... so bigger is better..
(primary) EXT2 - 50-100mb (cache) like ram sorta...
with these sizes... worryin about the size of the rom will not matter ..
look on the site link i posted above on how to install and use CWM if you havent before... (dont worry newbs... its easier then everyone makes it seem...)
with CWM builds the standard Gapps are not included...
THIS SITE is the repository to go to... i am using "gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip" but feel free to try others to see if they load...
this is the the most frustrating part of CWM, finding GAPPS that install...
u install them the same way you do a rom... by installing the zip from the sd card...
i do recommend installing gapps zip after you have already installed the rom and booted and restarted android a couple of times
otherwise i recommend THIS ROM as it is the one i use... i know it is only Froyo but it has a themed gingerbread taskbar with black pull down so it still looks nice!!!
lastly
((((technically test kernel.. so not recommended!!... but proven to fix screen not coming on problem...))))
for you crazy tester ppl waiting for the day you brick your phone(im totally kidding dont worry newbs) i use the WIS-Tilt2 kernel the newer test one to be specific...
GO HERE
With this kernel my device goes in to deep sleep with the GReen light and wakes up perfect every time!!!!!
the zip is just modules package and a zImage.. just have to replace and boot...
WARNING... when i updated with the working kernel it looked like it wasnt going to work.. didnt seem to be anywhere enough scrolling text and the boot animation barely played and then the screen went black... i played around with the buttons and found the device to be opperating with out the screen on i kept pressing buttons and the screen finally woke up!!!! be patient!!!! after that it worked perfectly everytime...
other tips... for people experiencing wifi unable to scan problem ..
use the Wifi-nvram.txt trick look it up in xda... once command is entered no need to reboot just turn on wifi and connect!!!
i hope that this has been helpful i couldnt find any where that had all the tips and tutorial in one place to get CWM up and running at least once... had to do it trial and error.. hope my hard work will help you newbs out!!! hahaha

Here is the CMW version of the normal FRX06 by arrrghhh. Credits to arrrghhh for the build and to preston74 for making it ready for CMW.
G-apps are already included in this build so you don't have to flash them separate.

Yes you are doing a good job
I first made a cmw version of frx06 without gapps, but argghhh told me it was ok if I include the gapps, so I did
You may also integrate my link in your first post, then I'll delete my post.
Forgive me here... I am new to the CWM builds. If I have a CWM build on an SD card, with the appropriate ex2 partitions and all, can I use CWM to put on a different build? That would be a whole lot easier than having to reformat and start over...
Well if you run in to any problems the support here is going to be limited.
On the other hand if you use XDAndroid the support here is maximal.
For testing and dev reasons, I will stay with my current build. I quite like my bluetooth.
For any beginners I would very much recommend that you use 'standard' (see intro to android sticky). Well, at least until you are confident you don't need to be hand-guided through this and know what to do if something goes wrong.

It actually is pretty easy - you can backup your current system & data partitions, and throw a new build on - if you don't like it, wipe and revert to the backup.
The only problem is if you have CWM installed, other 'normal' (looped mount) builds will not work - the rootfs will see the partitions and think you want to run from partitions - of course, this results in a failure to boot... I like having many builds on my card at one time so I can flip between them - this also makes testing a heckuva lot easier, so heads up folks!
Nice tutorial and thanks for putting my build in it,but you should put proper credits as Neopeek(and his team) made cwm and i made the build you linked(you can avoid doing this)
And it's gingerbread like themed and the theme name is minimal green..
You can avoid doing 300 mb system as almost all the builds are less than 100 mb,so doing it 150mb is good
CWM and loopmounted builds can co-exist.

To avoid this you can just add the "no_partitions" (without the quotes) switch to your cmdline on your startup.txt of the loopmounted build and you should be good to go.
It may depend on your rootfs, but I'm using F22's rootfs and it works like a charm.
i'm trying cwm with frx6 and it keep saying fail rootfs., what am i doing wrong?
Do you followed the tutorial on how to set up your sd-card for cmw? I think you are using a wrong rootfs. As far as I know you need the rootsf from neopeek's cmw.

I think you are choosing the wrong item in cmw, you need to choose 'Install zip from sd-cart' and then 'choose zip from sdcard'. Don't choose 'apply sdcart/update.zip' or something like that.
And if that doesn't work, maybe try another build. There is a (really small, because I tested it myself) option that the frx06 cmw build doens't work well.

No thats not it. i did just just what u are saying. I even tried the CherryPieV3 and it still installation aborted. I'm using CWM 1.8 could that be the problem
If you already have CWM files on your phone, then do not just install the CherryPieV3.zip file. You must extract the zip file which has another zip file inside that you should use to install in CWM.

Yes, you´re right. But he said that he also tried frx06, and that doesn´t worked for him too, and with the frx06.zip bundle, you don´t need to extract it first (if i'm right ;p)

To add apk's to a rom, you can add them but do not unzip the rom, just add them to the archive, let me know how it goes
I think status 6 is when you corrupt the updater-script. What did you use to update the script? I use EditPad lite.
I am trying to go back to stock ROM and use the Bares' Init.d Scripts Using Stock Kernel (V3).
I reflashed the stock GB ROM using flashtool, rooted and installed xrecovery 0.3. After that, I installed Bares' INIT-D-RUNNER-TWEAKS-V3.zip using xrecovery and rebooted. When ever I try to use wifi I get "Error" just below the toggle to turn it on and i does not work.
It seems like someone else had this problem, but Bares says tha wifi errors shouldn't happen, see:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2174564&highlight=wifi
I tried reinstalling three times (install original ROM and after that apply the Init.d scripts) in an unlocked bootloader X10. I then relocked the boot loader and tried again and I still get wifi problems.
Anyone else having problems like this? Is there a work around?
Obs: I could not post in the original threas as I am a newbie here and I am not allowed to post in the development section.

Hi bro, we need to edit install-recovery.sh script inside zip to include wifi module, please refer to HERE.
So, please use this zip, just flash it through Xrecovery, then it should be fine.

in the middle of install-recovery.sh and it didn't work out. I thought the reason was that I did not add the wiki.ko file to /system/lib/modules in the generated zip and started to look for it. I found the following the stock wifi modules from here. I got the modules from the x10_gb_stock_wifi_modules.zip file and added them to my tweaked INIT.D zip but it didn't work out. Anything that I am missing?

Hmmm..., this problem could be happened if the rom wasn't settled properly too.
So, please try these steps (exactly) :
- Revert back to stock and setup the phone.
- Root it with the latest Flashtool and choose SuperSU !!!
- Install Xrecovery and let the rom settled first !!!
- Check an everything including wifi !!!.
- If its all working good then flash my script (see the thread for the latest one) through xrecovery and dont get rush on the first 2~3 reboot.
- And check the result.
Regards
It still does not work

I tried as you suggested and it didn't work. I tried both with your V4 scripts and with my modified version to include the "insmod /system/lib/modules/wiki.ko". Both did not work after some time to settle the original ROM (with 3 reboots) and some time to settle the modified ROM (3 more reboots).
I have also tried your new STOCK-GB-MOD-RELOAD.zip update file, but it didn't work either.
One thing I noticed is that your original update files delete the wifi.ko module from the /system/lib/modules directory that exists in the stock ROM. I even copied wifi.ko to my computer and cried an small zip that can be flashed by xrecovery to restore that file, but it is not enough to get it working. I tried to read your INIT-D-RUNNER-TWEAKS-V4 to see what it was doing but I did not understand how it changes wifi (I could not even find out where wiki.ko wasw being deleted).
It is a really shame, as your new STOCK-GB-MOD-RELOAD.zip looks exactly as what I wanted.
Anything else I should try?

Hi bro,
The last options is by remove these 2 lines below from instal-recovery.sh script inside zip provided (STOCK-GB-MOD-RELOAD.zip) :
HTML:
#init.d runner
busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d/
BUT, ... the problem is : you will lost init.d runner for Stock Kernel, and it cause all tweaks will not run for sure.
The result is the rom will feel a bit slower than it should be.
Note : To be honest, i'm little bit confusing here, because everything should be fine.
OR : Use custom kernel for Locked Bootloader ( Doomkernel V6 for Locked Bootloader).
OR :
Just simply unlock the bootloader (it's really safe, but you have to follow the proper procedure on this), the simply procedure is :
- Revert back to Stock Rom using PC Companion or SEUS or Flashtool (Download the latest Flashtool Version (see the thread about how to unlock for more detail info, read it carefully!!!)., and then unlock your bootloader using this Flashtool.
Note :
Don't assume if got doubt about this.
- Flash custom kernel using above Flashtool (DoomKernel V6 integrated Bootmanager V2 Auto Rooted by Championswimmer is my recommendation) , because it's using Original Sony's boot splash logo.
- Flash above zip (STOCK-GB-MOD-RELOAD.zip) through Xrecovery.
- Finally you have to flash wifi modul for above kernel (find it on DoomLord's Thread).
Hope this help
Regards
Intalling another kernel does not work...
Hi,
I had a version with a prestine Stock + STOCK-GB-MOD-RELOAD.zip[/B] through Xrecovery. And I installed championswimmer kernel on top of it (thinking it would restore wi-fi) and it didn't work. That is realluy strange. I am starting to fear that the problem is with my X10 (it has some odd behaviors, like it always become slow when using a Ferakernel).
I'll try your first suggestion (turn off init.d scripts) and let you know how it went here.
Anyhow, great thanks!
Improvement

I tried to turn off init.d scripts and it didn't work!
It was getting into my nerves. So I decided to look inside your INIT-D-RUNNER-TWEAKS-V4.zip file to see if something was weird to me. I am an old Linux desktop user and it looked very strange a line in the update-script script inside META-INF/com/google/android:
delete_recursive SYSTEM:etc/init.d
This woudl delete the whole /etc/init.d directory, somthing that looks very dangerous from a desktop user. So I just commented it and created a new zip file (allowing the copy of your custom init.d scripts, just avoid the full deletion before hand). I was sure it would not work, but it did... Wifi is working after I install this new zip.
I plan now to take a close look at exactly what files are being deleted to find out what should remain in order to keep wifi working in my phone. I'll let you know when I get it right. Now I have to leave as real life is calling me!
I found a solution
I found the problem an the solution.
Just after installing the stock rom, rooting, and installing xrecovery, there is a single file in /system/etc/init.d. It is called 00modules (see attachment). It looks like it create symlinks from the currect kernel modules to /system/lib/modules. This file is essential to get wifi working in my X10.
Since Bare's mods, like STOCK-GB-MOD-RELOAD.zip, delete all the files in there I end up without wifi after installing them.
The solution is simple. Just add this file to STOCK-GB-MOD-RELOAD.zip in "system/etc/init.d". It will them be copied back after being erased. Wifi works and I get Bare's mod fully functional.
Thanks Bares fo your mod!

I create this line below :
delete_recursive SYSTEM:etc/init.d
Just to make sure no additional tweaks on init.d (and this is for users that don't want to fresh install the rom) , so the rom will 100% run with my files, just is't.
BTW, thanks a lot for the finding bro :good:. I have update my script to the FINAL one (see my thread), and it seem will be no more update after this one.
FYI
Best Regards
