Hi
I have the x10 mini pro
I'd like to use the new ROM but for that I need the 015 baseband not the 006.
I currently have build 2.0.A.0.504 installed and have the 2.1.1.A.6 sin files.
I dont have windows at home and the PC at work requires me to have admin rights to install the correct USB driver. So I can't use SEUS or flash tools.
I've done it before but I don't remember how I flashed the phone.
How can I flash the phone?
I have rooted that phone and have xRecovery installed and running, can I flash it with xrecovery?

if you have root just go to the *MINI ROM MANAGER* thread and get the qr code in you phone and download that(*you can also download to your pc and put the file in the sd-card and install*).
after install open and find the option to install CMW Recovery and thats it. Done
or
if you dont have root
you go to the market search for z4root(i think that's the correct name) install and now you have root
or
if the z4root dont work just download SuperOneClick(it dont need admin rights to root your device), plug the phone in the pc, them set usb debug option ON and select root on SuperOneClick
or
if you realy need the *xrec* you go to this thread* and download this thing and follow the instructions...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=951274
x'D all my sentenses begins with IF/OR x'D
My phone is rooted
I have xRecover running
With "mini rom manager" I can flash the device with the standard SE sin files I have and change the baseband version?
You're saying I just need "mini rom manager" copy the sin files I have to some directory on the sdcard and this changes the kernel.
This statment is correct "CWM recovery has the functionality to change the kernel version 1.6 <-> 2.1"
I think PTGamer mixes some things up... AFAIK you can't flash new baseband via ROMmanager...
I know Linux people don't like this but the easiest way to get your problem solved would be to run a windows emulator on your linux machine.
Massive waste of time. But has now been done
I have the standard SE 2.1 firmware with the correct baseband version
Now I just backup, wipe user data, install CM7 and restore, all via CWM?

OS: Ubuntu 10.04
Device: LG P509 (P500 = CM7) - General Inquiry.
Method: .../android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/$ ./adb ....(Hopefully)
See, I have the LG Optimus P509. In Win7 I was able to flash the kdz to downgrade/upgrade my radio baseband from v10E to v20G.
ADB via Linux Terminal:
After some tinkering I finally got to the point of:
List of devices attached
(Shows Device ID) device
How would I go about getting the phone into EMERGENCY MODE, and then flash the upgraded baseband? This may/may not be required, but it's what I saw with two different methods (Win7). Wine (.exe) file doesn't see my device. ./adb device - ACTIVE
The other method tries to load, but suddenly stops. Verified population of permissions (Execute as Program) check box.
Stuck...
WOULD THERE BE A WAY TO DO ALL OF THIS FROM THE LINUX TERMINAL?

hello to everyone
i am new to this forum, and i have some questions about JB ROM for xperia Mini Pro SK17i
my xperia mini pro is rooted, and i also have CWM on it, only thing that i have not done is unlock bootloader, and unlocking is allowed
i want to install this JB ROM on my xperia - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032900
now my question is, what i need to do, or to be precise, what to wipe in CWM to install this, and do i need to unlock bootloader first to be able to install JB ROM ??
do i need to wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, or only data ???
i wanted to post in thread for the ROM, but since i am new here, i am not allowed to do so
so if someone is willing to help me, and give me advice what to do i will be gratefuller
i now how to flash kernels and that stuff, but this is my first tryout with custom ROM, and i don't want to mess up my phone
Very easy, but first you need to unlock your bootloader. Use this tool to unlock the bootloader, here. Link for the tool here.
Then:
Flash boot.img (in the zip)
Install Zip (Rom)
Install Gapps
Wipe data (do this first and only once and never do it again)
You can also read my FAQ for JB 4.2.2 here, for clarify some doubts you may have
P.S: Ignores the post by radwan020, he is a little confused.

First u need to install all the drivers in flashtool/dricers
Then start flashtool, select lightning button, choose fastboot mode, and choose your boot.img file
Connect your fone in fastboot mode (vol up and connect)
It should begin flashing.
If u don't want to go through all that trouble, you can see the kernel flasher in my sig

but i have installed already flashtool, i needed it to downgrade kernel so i can root the phone, so i have drivers
now i only need to unlock bootloader, but it seems that i have some problems, i will try on my gf's lap with win 7, because on my win 8 lap i can't unlock bootloader with SE Bootloader_Unlocking_Relocking 1.6, and i have flashtool with drivers installed and also SDK manager installed
i can't get the unlock code with the program, but i got it from SE site
after manually entering IMEI and unlock code an clicking unlock bootloader nothing happens and program freezes
i need to try option over SDK and CMD, if that is not working then i will post screenshots for problems i have

is there any way to install drivers properly on win 8 ??
because i am using them, and drivers always fail to install with flashtool 0.9.10.1, few of them only installs, others no
i tried on my gf laptop with win 7, and there drivers install with no problem, but then i have problem with unlocking bootloader with flashtool
in flashtool it says that my bootloader is unlocked, but my configuration says unlocking available, not unlocked
i did not manage to try this method on her laptop because i did not have enough time - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31376248#post31376248 - but on my laptop, since drivers are not installed properly i am unable to unlock it, when i enter command in CMD to check version of fastboot i am getting waiting for device, and nothing happens
also automated unlocker, SE bootloader unlocker 1.6, also does not work, program freezes when i click unlock bootloader
here are pictures of flashtool and my configuration
Have you installed Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or higher to run stable , as the OP saying? I use that tool on my w7 64bit without any problem. Have you installed the Flashtool-drivers that is inside the SE Bootloader_Unlocking_Relocking tool?

Nope you can easily get it working. Just serach for disabling driver signature enforcement in win 8. Do it and then install drivers.
Also if you are on the go but get access to a pc, you can try kernel flashing tools (see sig) to flash kernels without installing any drivers

Don't really matters, the img is flashed with ROM anyway, problem you installed ROM for different phone.
Turn the phone off and flash stock with flashtool, then start over, with ROM for your phone this time.

Okay, flash mode and fastboot mode drivers installed I assume.
Download stco rom FTF, put it in flashtool firmware directory, start flash in flash mode, choose the file you have dowanloaded, wait till flashtool ask you to connect in flash mode, turn the phone off (press power + volume up untill you feel (1+) 3 vibrations,) connect the USB cable while holding volume down key.

Yest that flashtool.
There only stock rom FTFs no others, you will have to search your phone android development forum for one.
Open flash tool, turn off your phone, connect to the PC while pressing volume down key, flashtool should display "device connected in flash mode", and it should stay connected for about 45 seconds if no flash is being made.

Just try if you can get flash mode to work without flashing anything as I explained. This is the key for recovery.
You can also create your own FTF.
Start update with PC Companion until it asks you tp connect in flash mode, then quit and build the FTF with flashtool.

r-e-a-l-l-y ?? this is just as easy as strap ur socks on .... in case u will have to do it another time i write here the steps:
0.5: DON'T CONNECT PHONE NOW!
1. dl & install flashtool (install it in ''C://'' / maindrive not in other folders!) go to the drivers folder (of flashtool install) & install the drivers you need for your phone.
2. download & place a .ftf file (latest avaiable STOCk ROM file) in the ''firmaware'' folder of flashtool install.
3. open flashtool (not the ''flashtool64'' ); click on flash (icon); select flashmode. select the wanted FW (software to install) leave all untouched ; ONLY tick in ''EXCLUDE'' on ''TA''
4. start flash, flashtoll will tell you to connect the phone. connect the (powered off) phone WHILE HOLDING volume down (may differs on phone model, use google then). grenn light will lit, flashtool will start doing the job. after all finish, disconnect phone & DONE.
NOTE: you need to install the android SDK (more important the google USB drivers, which will install by default) if your phone dont get recognized by pc/ flashtool
