X8 have recovery? - XPERIA X8 Android Development

In init.rc i found command "service flash_recovery /system/etc/install-recovery.sh"
So x8 have recovery?

is that mean that you have installed xrecovery? try to find it on original fresh stock ROM. if there is exist maybe X8 has that facility.

I found this on stock 2.1.1 rom.

maybe thats the code for the pre installed recovery app?

Maybe that's left from developer firmware... It would be nice if we could have one

lets investigate this...!

oh man, why do i use custom rom in times like this, i want to check it too,

i reverted mine to the stock and found nothing xD there might be something mysterious with your x8

No, command line is there but no files - as I said, probably something left from dev firmware...

build 3883

I can upgrade my streak?there is newest build?
What is your question?
Upgrade as in the firmware?
I really do hope so, i tried the other day to load Paul Obrien's ROM from ModaCo without much sucess. but the ROM was for 4399 release and i'm on 3883, not a problem i restored back to stock [rom] and started again.
I just have a rooted device with custom recovery installed, and it was all really straight forward i'm just waiting for a rom now.
I dont know if my built is the last.

Funny thought same link but when i click link posted by me gives that error and when u look at the link closely in broweser its missing /LatestBuild/ from middle
so 404 ERROR is showing up just for that reason i guess
I tend to use my own link to it, so the badly formed url wasn't the reason I was getting 404

|ROM|A temporary replacemend rom with working camera untill fix for fxp41 rom.

Oke all, i hope i am not getting in to trouble with this but i just want to help untill FXP is comming with a proper fix.
I post this because a get a ton of pms and not the time to send averyone a link.
All credits go to FXP team that are working so hard to keep ower x10 a live.
Flash this zip with the latest cwm and then reboot. Then you flash the gapps.
Just like the original.
Everything works.
I used the build,prop of FXP41 so about the phone you see 2.3.7.
O and just for the fun i put a different bootanimation in this because then people will now it is not posted by FXP and there for they are not responseble for bricking your phone. Neither am I offcourse.
Have fun.
And this thread will be deleted after FXP is comming with update.
I hope this will work for you all, did for me
and... what does this fix do?)

This fix hase no data bug and is the Fxp30 with lib files and build.prop of fxp41.
No data bug and working camera.
I made this because i want working camera and giong back to fxp30 was not a option so i made this.
So do I do a full wipe?
Just to clarify that this is still FXP030 Android 2.3.5 just with newer libraries and build.prop from FXP041.
So if you want a full Android 2.3.7, get FXP041 instead.

[Q] Can't fix bootloop on Android 4.3 port for Nexus 4

After I saw the leaked Android 4.3 ROM I messed around with the ROM Files to port it to my N4.
But currently I'm hanging in an Bootloop (I didn't expected something else to be honest)
I made a logcat but don't know what exactly goes wrong and what I need to change.
I attached the logcat
Can you please link me to this. So I can help you further.

Here is what I got until now.
Do not be surprised about unnecessary files, if the ROM would boot I would clean it up.

But there is no libnetcmdiface.so neither in the GS4 ROM nor in the N4 ROM.
And I think it's only for wifi so that can't be the thing that triggers the bootloop or?
I found a version of it but
W/InterfaceController( 156): Error (Symbol not found: ) while searching for the interface command
apparently it doesn't like it

I don't think it's the cause of the bootloop I think it's all in the audio
I don't get that netd error if I use netd from cm10.1 doesn't seem to cause issues but audio still makes it crap itself
would either of you mind PMing me the link to what you have so far? I can host it on my mediafire account but the dropbox link died because apparently a lot of people got excited that you were porting the ROM and decided to download it.
(I've been working on a port as well and was going to check out your progress for any differences that we may be able to collaborate)

Oh sorry, didn't saw that.
I'm currently uploading it to my SkyDrive (did thought so many people would download it)
Currently stopped porting because I completly bricked my device, but I found a way to unbrick it and wrote a guide
Don't know if I'll restart porting.

This updater-script is okay, but only if you flash that on a N4.
For a other device you need to modify it.

hey just knoticed i was digging around in the rom and there is no boot.img in the rom witch will make a boot loop i think if we can find a boot.img from maybe a 4.3 rom it might work because i tried to use a 4.2.2 boot.img and when i installed the rom it said to update boot.img and then was stuck in a boot loop again ...so im thinking if we can find a 4.3 boot.img it might work
