[Q] 2.3.3 ROOT .... cui prodest ?????? BAD NEWS ???

Dear friends and DEV
I have been very surprised to observe that after 3 days 2.3.3 was not rooted
after I asked myself why this did not happen in 1-2 days as for the previous update ????
the answer is simple and comes with another question
who really needs the root directly from the stock room ?????
DEVS started having already pre-rooted the custum roms have no advantage to open the way also to amatorial people
Conclusion .... we will wait a lot of time before the direct rooting of 2.3.3.
Ptrofessional DEVS at the moment are not really interested in this because they can do their job without it and probably they like also to be more in control ....
Do you agree ??????

Yes it is probably true, if i had known this before i would install prerooted, but i just don't have no time to do the whole proces going back to eclair and than installing prerooted.... For now, i am waiting for the direct root.

I asked similar question before.
Finally I took a plunge and downgrade to 2.1 and root and install xrecovery with flashtool, and install 2.3 rooted Rome through recovery.

Here use this root app:

Then you should certainly use Wolfbreak's GB ROM
It really is very easy
Just flash his ROM first and then the .ftf bundle using flashtool
No need of going back to 2.1 eclair

This simple will never come out.
It is same as SE ARC 2.3.3 update, as soon as SE ARC 2.3.3 update release. No one can come up direct root.
Same for SE X10i 2.3.3 update.
cheers

Sorry .... may be I was not clear
I am NOT talking about 'to be able to do it' ( I did it many times since 1.6)
I am INSTEAD talking abaut 'I want to do it'........
For personal reasons I would like (if available thanks to the work of the DEV) to have the total stability of the stock room without few useless applications and with a nice theme
I m going where I cannot use computers for a while and I cannot update from bugs that with all due respect are unavoidable with custum roms
Of course not being able to perform the root by myself I do not complain, I accept the current situation and I will be in any case grateful to the DEVs
Mine was only an ANALYSIS of the current situation

Okay ,
Then u can search for reviews on some custom ROMs
From reliable devs like :
Erickwill , Wolfbreak , kxhawkins and many more

Im having troubles with games.. Waiting on the stock release from my company...
This is the why could be nice to be able to root it by ourselves...

I thanked you for answering
Unfortunately after 1 year of using custum roms I am fully aware of the reality ....
I have been using for long time Wolfbreaks ROMs for example after MIUI (the guy that is not anymore in this forum ... etc etc)
They are fast nice and beaufiful and I apreciate the work done but there is always a little bug that will came out soon or later ....
That is OK I am not complaining .... very quickly the DEV usually fix it
The only thing for me is that I am going abroad and I cannot use the computer for a while ... meantime I need the phone
I September I will try all the ROM and I am sure that I will enjoy their excellent performance

Okay ,
Neither am I insisting you
I was just saying that if u require root that much then why don't u use one of the pre rooted ones
Just a barebones....
Like some apks removed and stuff
Yes but only if they r not buggy
Any ways have fun with your x10
After September.

@ spaarc
lets's put in this way
I would not have any problem in using the current method for rooting flashing back to 2.1
if a simple original and complete 2.3.3 rooted rom was available
But no dev has interest in creating one
BTW I am not able to download the wolf room (just for safety in the case I change my mind) ... mediafire is not working ... someone knows about a mirror ?

[GUIDE] The latest guide to xperia x8 roms and mods

UPDATED: Saturday, February, 25th 2012
DISCLAMER:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR PHONE IF YOU FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS: THOSE INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE MENTIONED ARE WHAT WORKED FOR ME AND OTHER USERS> and when you read this thread,dont just read half or parts of it, read it properly, form start to finish!​Hi there dear reader welcome to my guide with new questions new roms and much much more things. It's The latest guide to roms and mods for the x8!!​1. we do not accept trolling here. i do not want a flame war here.
2. these mainly benefits me and other rom testers ect.
3.click here for my FAQ that gets updated every week
right onto the guide iitself.
Rooting​Rooting your phone is what you need to do before you install custom roms, modules, and kernels. Rooting means you have superuser access to your phone. a bit like a special admin on a computer. having superuser rights means you also have the power to change you system stuff, delete a system app, add modifications and so on. if you wish to root your phone then click here
great, you'v rooted your phone i hope, now for the fun stuff...
Basebands and kernels​I know that many people have baseband 006. you cant install roms with your baseband at 006 so you will have to change it to 015. unless your phone already has 015. for the baseband collection thread clickthis
i have also found a thread with a custom kernel. its linuxdx by doixanh. for the thread click here
Also a guide on building a kernel. click here for that
Roms:​welcome to the rom part of this thread. custom roms are custom android versions, that can easily be modified and customized, they are more than just your average android. most of them are based on cm6 or cm7 or cm6 mini.
here are a couple of gingerbread roms i have found and tested.
gingerbread roms:​Gingercruzt by frogy furnetal.
Gingerdx by doixanh
minicm7
froyo roms
froyo pro by XDA-RK
Froyobread by doixanh
sense roms by ratch
how to install custom roms:​Now, custom roms are actually quite easy to install. as long as you follow the instructions bellow.
1. copy the rom to your sd card. no subfolder just the normal folder on its own on the sdcard.
2.boot into xrecovery (for more about recoveries click here, its my FAQ you will find info there
3.go to install custom .zip
it should come up with a load of folders you have on your phone. go to the bottom where you will find your rom and choose that.
4. install it and wait...
5. once installed, do a full wipe before rebooting or you could get stuck on rebooting.
5. your done!
Modifications.​Right now on to the mods.
some people want dual touch or pinch to zoom for their phones.
well, guess what, you can.
if you have cypress chip on your phone (real dual touch) click here
If you have synaptics (fake pinch to zoom) then click here
If you want to overclock your phone then click here
If you want linuxdx then click Here
how to install linuxdx (and other kernels)​I do have a thread about bootloaders and kernels but since i put it in my modifactions section i decided to put a TuT:
grab flashtool 2.9.1 (hard to get hold of but it is the only flashtool that works with flashing kernels, i do have it and i have flashed linuxdx v004 and alfs kernel v05 so i will load up the download file for flashtool 2.9.1)(click here to download flashtool 2.9.1 move linuxdx v004 .ftf to flashootl/firmwares
and open x10flashtool (works with x8 dont worry) click flash and choose file. then follow the onscreen instructions... (plug in x8 whilst holding back button, wait for a few minutes as some coding will show up on the computer screen, then it will say its done and you can disconnect your phone) once completed rebbot phone and enjoy!!!YOU MUST HAVE AN UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER TO LOAD CUSTOM KERNELS!
Recently asked questions!
Hello guys! i decided to update my thread and tell you about more recently asked questions:
How to unlock bootloader:
Answer: There is this thing called search bar, use it because there is more than just 2 threads about unlocking bootloader, actually there is a about 5
Why do i get a hard brick after unlocking my phones bootloader?
Answer: Check your date on the back of the phone: It should have a date such as 11w28 etc. If it is 11w32 and above, then stay away from the bootloader, it will only end up in tears. Many threads about this too, use the search button
Can we run IOS on our x8?
Answer: Are you crazy? check my post here for more. If your thinking of porting it or anything (not that it will ever happen )
if you have anymore things you want me to add, then post a reply saying so.
also check out my FAQ
this will be updated every week.
Also, how did you get to this thread? via my sig, or via searching the forums or searching google?

? You don't need an unlocked bootloader to flash a firmware if its signed using Sony's key?
If you want to update to ics, you can just get a ftf of the firmware and flash it.

Hi mate, a few months ago I was in the same boat. I build PCs, understand basic programming, etc etc but it's a whole new world these android phones! Haha very humbling to go from the guy everyone asks for answers
To the guy who has nothing but questions. Anyway point is I can relate.
When im at my pc a bit later I'll gather up all my bookmarks and links and dump em here for you! 99% of what you need is buried here in xda land so in the mean time... Start reading! Haha
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium

if you've rooted your phone I'd recommend "sysTune" from the store - it's an easy way to change the running priorities in that you simply afford each process a number between -20 and +19 - the processes with the lowest numerical settings are given the highest priority and vice versa - it's an easy way to keep the speed right where you want it, and it's great for a really smooth launcher

Just with reference to this question, when I found out that ICS was available for my phone I just relocked my bootloader and upgraded via PC companion. However, my suspicions were confirmed from first boot into ICS, all the custom roms I had been using were much better!
But I thought you should know its very possible to relock your bootloader, so you might as well try a few custom roms while you wait for ICS.
Ive had my arc for about 6 months now and I have tried all the kernels and roms I could find, I reached the conclusion that Arconium ICS v4 Get Arconium ICS V4 here was the best for me. Im currently using Arcknight RC3 Get Arcknight Kernel here as my kernel but I have heard good things about using the stock kernel with CWM.
If your going to delve into the world of custom roms and kernels send me a PM and I would be happy to help with the processes you will need to go through.
The way I see it, there is no point in us both doing the 6 months of experimentation when I easily share what I've learnt with you

First thing: You need to root your phone! Follow the instructions in my signature (under 'Rooted' - files found in 'these files')
Once you have successfully rooted your phone, you need to install 2ndInit <link here> (v2.3)
Now you can flash CM10!

Hi,
maybe i can help you.
1.Download here the last quarz rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768702
(Its beta! Its mean not perfect, but ran smotth.)
Put this on your sd.
2.Then you download gapps
minimal is enough, because your systemspace is not big.
Here a new link
http://www.uncledan.it/android-files/DefyGapps/Defy-Gapps-CM10.1-20121201-minimal.zip
And dont forget to put it on your sd.
Accu is full?
3.Restart your phone and by the blue led you push down.
4.Go in the custom or stable recovery, not stock.
5.Wipe data/factory reset.Before make a backup, when you want.
6.Install zip from sd.
Choose the rom, after this choose the gapps.
7.Restart
The first time need time. When is look like problem
pull out and in the battery.And make the handy on and wait.
PS:Read, read and read next time.
In the many threats they wrote how to install specific mods.
German is so much easier for me.
So i hope its help.
And i dont know why the people forget thanks after they take an answer.
Happy modding
I like acid sound mod 5 not 7 to improve the sound quality.
And jellyx make nice kernels for the last cm10s.

Thank you Joke19!
Could you please explain what is minimal gapps? Do I lose some functionality if I install minimal gapps instead of "full" gapps?

Gapps = Google Applications
So no, you won't lose functionality, and plus you can download any apps you want via the Play Store.

I've been using sevenrock's adjusted Quarx build. However, if you read past the post you will find YAFU's post offers his take on it. They might be outdated as I haven't seen many positive comments on the recent builds. Hopefully someone can give you a more updated opinion.
Edit: As Sunny mentioned 0307 is the most recent stable one he knows. If you want to have fun then go play with the most recent just remember the newer does not always equate to better.

I am little confused with my backup part.....i want to backup my current rom. how can i do it? can it be done with 2ndinit? if yes can you guide it out.

Go to the custom recovery option via bootmenu, navigate using volume keys and the power button to select backup and restore and then backup all
On a side note, cm10.1 is working quite well for me

I have installed it and it is running great......it has been running fr 25 hrs now in one go and didnt found any prob yet.
Sorry bro i m not a heavy user for Wifi so cant give decision on that.
Prob....cant sync mail contacts with normal contacts.
Phone camera is not proper. It still has some glitches.
made few calls....the receiver complains abt my voice reaching to them
The worst is the 2ndit recovery got changed. still wondering how can i recover that
Still no big prob.....Over all it is good one.
Thanks fr the suggestion

i am running on CM10.1 20130404quarx ( the one with the stable kernel ) and wifi runs fine. i´m also on blechdoses 03/04 kernel, maybe it makes any difference, i don´t know. the problem is that actually the wifi prevents the phone from sleep. i resolved this problem with the battery saver app. but all at all the rom runs really fine

Hi,
maybe i can help you.
1.Download here the last quarz rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768702
(Its beta! Its mean not perfect, but ran smotth.)
Put this on your sd.
2.Then you download gapps
minimal is enough, because your systemspace is not big.
Here a new link
http://www.uncledan.it/android-files/DefyGapps/Defy-Gapps-CM10.1-20121201-minimal.zip
And dont forget to put it on your sd.
Accu is full?
3.Restart your phone and by the blue led you push down.
4.Go in the custom or stable recovery, not stock.
5.Wipe data/factory reset.Before make a backup, when you want.
6.Install zip from sd.
Choose the rom, after this choose the gapps.
7.Restart
The first time need time. When is look like problem
pull out and in the battery.And make the handy on and wait.
PS:Read, read and read next time.
In the many threats they wrote how to install specific mods.
German is so much easier for me.
So i hope its help.
And i dont know why the people forget thanks after they take an answer.
Happy modding
I like acid sound mod 5 not 7 to improve the sound quality.
And jellyx make nice kernels for the last cm10s.

Thanks a very lot! Suddenly my MB526 understands German It was a Chinese before! And now it has gapps.
I used CM10-20130318-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip and gapps-jb-20120726-minimal.zip, in case anyones wants to know.
Even more great is the fact, that it has JB 4.1.2 now!!! It was GB 2.3.4 (or something, sorry) before!
Just cool

I am proud to present my first custom rom!
GWiz (Used to be Superskilled) is a ROM that has minor tweaks here and there and some debloating. This is meant to be an basic rom for users to enjoy. The reason its called Gwiz is that because I will be making tons of themes for this in which you may say Gee wiz! No? Okay. Dont expect updates as this is an basic rom really.
Features
-Knox Removed-ish (LP)
-Lightly- Debloated
-Many more
-Very basic as you can see..
Installation
1. Have TWRP or CWM recovery installed (Use T805 recoveries)
2. Download the ROM
3.Backup your stuff in TWRP or CWM
4. Wipe dalvik,data, and caches (AKA Factory reset)
5.Install the ROM
6. Reboot and wait
7. Done?
Contributors​-Samsung for making the Tab S
-AndroidGirl for the support and testing the rom
-Rip for testing cfautoroot. Without him then this rom would never be here
-Tkkg1994 For the huge amount of help! WIthout him, I wouldn't make any roms!He taught me everything to get this going.

Updates will be in the second post of there is any. Since there seems to be no developers working on your devices, I thought I might chip in and help out Since Im not good with including things into roms, I cant include themes into roms or extra things since I dont know how. But thanks for testing!

Theme updated. Thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=59598280
