It was really fast and smooth. I consider it faster than MiniCM7 2.2.1 and Xperia NxT ArcMini6.

Problem with GingerDX v029

Hi,

i have just installed from zip the ROM but, after rebooting, the phone doesn't boot and on the screen the message "Sony Ericsson" remains indefinitely.

How can i recover the phone?


Thankyou

Well this ROM is really good. i have always been a fan of Achep's Themes n nAa's kernel [ Of course doixanh's is extra ordinary.]. :) I have dropped down from JB to this ROM n i am enjoying it.. Thanks for your hard work. :)

Thanks for such excellent work, the ROM is very fast and smooth, took a day with her and when no reboot or anything like that, the only thing at the moment is that when you connect the USB touch screen rotated to activate the storage, rest all good ... I just hope a little better battery performance ...

That isn't bug, type on Android icon :D

Few Bugs...!!

Off course...this is a great rom...!! I would like to mention few bugs which dev can fix in the subsequent versions:

Most Serious Bug: -- Sometimes if we connect our phone to charging, the phone does not charge at all but if we reboot the phone while the charging cable is connected already...then after few seconds when 'reboot' is complete the phone shows 'charging'. That means this is not the problem with the jack port or USB cable i.e. this is not a hardware problem. The problem seems to be either of kernel or ROM?

1. Notification toggle does not have option enabled to toggle led torch in CM settings.

2. 2g/3g/2+3g toggle is not responding smoothly....i.e. toggling sometimes is bit difficult from notification toggle.

3. Camera does have a night mode but taking photo is a real pain in night as the LED flash is not properly syncronised with the camera. Due to this reason the photos are coming BLACK.

4. If we put the camera on video recording mode and start the LED flash and then press the recording button/camera key, the LED turns itself off and one need to switch it again on manually.

5. Autofocus is sometimes too short with camera and video recording is sometimes not smooth (laggy).

6. Sense like lockscreen in the GDX settings is not working properly and we do not have any option there for 'custom app start' etc.

Dev please fix some of them in the next release. Consider this as a kind request.

Thanks for the ROM.

Sent from: X10 Mini Pro (U20i) + nAa-14 GB kernel + Latest gingerDX ROM.

PS: I have installed the ROM with correct instructions. I always do a factory reset/all wipes before installing any ROM zip. If I was facing any issue I always do a complete wipe/factory reset and if not solved then report the bugs.

---------- Post added at 07:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ----------

Sometimes I am also facing first call drop...i.e. when I pick up the call first time, there is no sound from other end. Then I again redial or receive the call...and this time all things are going normal. I never faced this problem with other rom.

    GingerDX
    Now under new management ;)

    Intro
    Let's continue the fun! :)

    This project is a continuation of doixanh's personal ROM, known as GingerDX.
    ("Ginger" as in "Gingerbread", and "DX" as in short for "doixanh")

    Brought to you by TeamFun:
    eagleeyetom, djnilse and AChep, HashyCode.

    As set in stone by doixanh, the main goal is to have a fast, smooth and lightweight CM7 based ROM with some special features.

    Before we begin:
    Code:
    package gingerdx;
    
    import disclaimer;
    
    public class GingerDXDisclaimer extends Disclaimer {
    
        /**
         * Your warranty is now likely void.
         *
         * We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
         * spontaneous combustion, or any other host of cosmic penalties
         * which may befall you, your family, or your phone.
         *
         */
        public GingerDXDisclaimer(){
            warranty.set(0);
        }
    
    }

    GingerDX now even has its own IRC channel!
    If you feel like chatting with each other or hanging out with us:
    #GingerDX
    NOTE: Before you click the link to get to FreeNode's webchat or fire up your IRC clients:
    The developers are NOT your personal support helpdesk nor root of endless knowledge.
    If you are a developer or have a really urgent or tricky problem come tell us about it.

    Previous AddOns (Optional)
    NOTE: Flash these AFTER you flashed GingerDX

    Install Instructions
    • Flash nAa through Flashtool
      Note that flashing a kernel requires you to unlock the boot loader. Check the manufacturing date of your phone here first to avoid hard bricking!
    • Download the ROM
    • Copy the ZIP file to your SD card
    • Install custom zip
    • Flash GAPPS
    • Reboot
    All versions will preserve your DATA partition, so don't worry about losing apps or settings.


    Themes
    NOTE: We are not responsible for system instabilities caused by themes
    The formerly included theme was A-Theme Lite by AChep.

    GingerDX natively supports T-Mobile themes. You can find other themes in the list of available T-Mobile themes in XDA Android's theme sticky.
    Download the theme of your choice onto your phone and use Theme Chooser (included in GingerDX) to select theme.


    Notice
    Very important. Read all before posting questions!
    1. This ROM is based on doixanh's personal ROM and continued in the same philosophy to keep it as lightweight as possible. You can report bugs in this thread and suggest additions, but understand we're not obligated to fix or include them. We'll fix what is needed, and we'll include what makes sense.
    2. We are NOT responsible for any bugs caused by custom-made fixes/additions/tweaks. You use them at your own risk and responsibility!
    3. Regarding the copyright branding at the bottom in Lockscreen: We will NOT remove them nor provide any option to disable them. Don't PM/Post to ask for the removal or nag otherwise.
    4. If you have battery drain, try the following:
    • Clear battery stats in recovery.
    • Freeze unused services (like Email, DSP Manager, Maps). This is important.
    • Turn OFF 'Allow mock locations'.
    • Don't set brightness too high.
    • Don't install too many unused apps.
    • Turn OFF WiFi, 2G, 3G, GPS, Bluetooth when not in use.
    • Turn OFF LED Succession.
    • Reboot after you listen to music. Music service caused battery drain (in the past).
    Generally, doixanh and me usually get 2-3 days out of a charge (give or take depending on usage).
    5. If you still have battery drain after following Step 4, try:
    • Full wipe in recovery, re-install GingerDX.
    • Use Stock ROM for several days to see if the battery problem is caused by GingerDX or not.
    • If it doesn't drain, try installing one of your apps, test battery for a day, install another one, and test.
    • and so on...
    That way you will know what's the cause of your battery drain.


    Thanks
    Thanks also go out to Google for their great little Android. :)
    And don't let us forget to throw Sony Ericsson a thanks for their nice X8 hardware but craptastic software support.
