I have no problem with using the flashtool, downloading the sin file, etc. But the step that says DO NOT let it boot and immediately go into xrecovery is what worries me. I love trying all the new ROMs, but am still always go back to a custom 2.1 because of the cam/videocam, plus no stereo bluetooth dropouts.
My question is, after I do this to update the baseband and flash 2.2 Beta 4 via xrecovery. Can I go back to my old custom 2.1 with older baseband via xrecovery and then switch back and forth via xrecovery afterward? I just don't feel like flashing the entire firmware, rooting, adding JIT v2, then removing all of the SE apps AGAIN for like the 10th time.
u can install any rom on .435 firmware..
u cant install beta 4 on any lower firmware(.24,etc)..
so update to .435 and stay..
happy flashing

Im not entirely sure thats true because it seemed that those with the newer baseband seemed to be having issues with other roms prior to z's beta 4... can someone confirm?

its mentioned clearly in z's post about using the latest base band. as for Steve's recommendation of not letting it boot, i guess i must have missed it when i upgraded the base band while on 2.1 customised, but the only worst thing that happened was i didn't got any signal on my phone, everything else worked fine, it didn't mattered coz i was to install free x10 v4. and its a fine job done by z. the ROM is great. add green glow theme on it, and nothing's like it.
about xrecovery backup able to change your base band back with restore, i haven't tried it myself, i guess xrecovery devs will be the best guys to check if you're not sure.

well apparently I got a notification for a update on my phone :/
build number I have at the moment: 2.0.2.A.0.24 (the first dual-touch kernel i believe?)
Baseband: 2.0.49...
could this update be the actual global generic .435 update?
I havent tried to update yet, as im using the Eternity 2.1 and it's not for the current build number :/
could it really have been that slow for me to get the .435 update around to me? xD
it's a bit strange, as I didn't think it was possible when you flash to a different build, to recieve the updates anymore? Or is this a update for Japan as i think that where the Dual-Touch kernal came from?
and another question...
is it safe to run this update or is SE gonna brick my phone with this? xD
Obviously since Eternity is nothing more but a very-very-very customized 2.1 ROM which relies on Stock Firmware it's only logical to me that it will notify you for new updates!
Of course if you update you will go back to Sony-crap UI and applications and stuff so don't do it!

No problem
Or you could just flash to 2.1 .435 and root it from flashtool 2.6. The new ROM is actually better and smoother, but it your choice
Yesterday i Got the same message.....Update available
Build No : 2.0.2.A.0.24
But after updating there is no change in build no...
It is same as before....Only thing is it re flashed...
.435 is the newest FW to my knowledge and Eternity is still running on the old firmware .24
The update is probably for the upgraded FW or just a random push for an update to some bug, who knows lol. I do know that jst about any time you update through SE you unroot your phone and more then likely will reinstall SE's ****ty UI.
I flashed the .435 FW and run Blue Sparks V5 wich is built on the .435 FW and it works great.
Hi, and to begin with sorry I can't post in dev section, no enough messages yet...
So my X10 failed since I tried another rom. Ok, so I went back to X10 2.1 official, then I rooted, installed busbox, xRecovery...
Well, let's try a new rom. I chose the TripNRaver Arc rom 2.3 gingerbread. Then I flashed the .49 baseband as asked in his topic, however I have infinite loop reboot. But it boots to PIN number asked, I see the phone find the network, so I think baseband is not the problem... But I'm not pro.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Sorry, my English is not perfect since I'm french.
Thank you

It should crash a few times.
But if it continues to do that you may have the same problem i have.
My x10i won't run that rom at all.
Can you try bb 52?
Try to crash system server a few times. If that's not working you should reflash stock firmware with flashtool, reroot, xrec and so on. Then reflash bb49 and reinstall the Rom. Good Luck

if you have followed all the steps correctly then it will boot, first boot takes a while.
Sorry to add on this thread but it seems that I dont need to create a new one for my Q.
I want to install WB v5 too but not sure about one thing, it says it's for unlocked Bootloader. I have Achotjan CyanogenMod 7.0.3 SE Remplacement ROM installed and I want to try something else since the battery life is horrible.
If I have to unlock bootloader, is there a way to do it straight from the rom I am in or should I downgrade to 2.1 first. Sorry but all the tuts about how to unlock bootloader are a bit complex and I couldnt find info about that scenario.
Thanks guys.

I have a locked bootloader and I'm using v5.
It works for both locked and unlocked bootloaders. Says so in the changlog.

after install of this addon i get this error

what am i doing wrong here?
greetings
So, I guess this is the general thread for problems with WB's v5.0? If not I can make a new topic.
Anyways, I installed v5.0c, but it never boots up. It either hangs on the Xperia logo or the screen goes black. It goes like this:
1. white Xperia logo
2. Goroh custom kernel loading
3. back to the white Xperia logo or the screen blacks out
I've tried waiting 10-15 minutes, but it just stays on that screen. I suspect it's a problem with Doom's kernel. So I pulled the battery, booted up into Xrecovery and flashed Goro's kernel. Now it boots up fine, but I was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem and if there's fix as I would really like try out Doom's kernel.
This ROM doesn't appear to like my phone or something I have on it at least. With the following loaded I can get my phone to boot, I see the lock screen and can unlock it but after that I just see the blue Sony background, nothing else. Power and volume popups work.
x10_2.3.3_stock-with-xrecovery-v3.ftf
x10_gb_stock_wifi_modules.zip

Nevermind, user error. Wiped everything and reflashed, radio, wifi and phone are all working
Hi guys,
I need find Colours Icons WB 5.0.0c (no tweak lost) similar (TouchWiz), and se stock logo?

TouchWiz_Mod_WB (24/08) by alzbac not compatible with xload and bravia v5.0.0 zip ... errors in volume control and brightness (no themes installed)..
I updated from 4.0.4s to v5s and it works fine except for circle battery mod (after applying font&keyboard file. Mine is locked I guess Rogers Canada.
guys right now am in really awkward situation..
my xrecovery working really fine untill i installed wolfxperia uibidoom rom (full wipe+dalvik cache)with ICs theme (ICS-ThemeV1.1),now m stucked xperia boot screen and cannot entered in xrecovery mode
guys please help in that case
btw is there any alternate method to install xrecovery without flashtool (coz i want to reinstall xrecovery in my x10 may be this will work)
one more question
can we install custom roms like wolfxperia's rom & cyno roms in x10 by using flashtool??
ulbldoom was not for locked bootloaders...you got wrong version my friend
Sent from my X10S using xda premium
Yes it appears ur bootloader is locked that is for unlocked bl so wont work. U can install xrec manually but it much easier to use flashtool. Use seus or flash global generic 2.3.3 then root and install xrec
Sent from my X10 using XDA
Try This
Restore your phone via SEUS, then do a complete Root, Bootloader unlock via Flashtool,
Unlocking bootloader will help you a lot, for many custom ROM's you'll require an unlocked bootloader so do that using the flashtool aswell.
Install xRecovery via flashtool (easiest way there is), you can install it manually but it tends to be a bit of a headache !!
thankss guys

same issue
Ive had the same issue only a few days ago where i was afraid i nearly screwed up my phone. I kept ready the forums here tho, and came to the conclusion that
a I used an "outdated" flashtool, and
b I used the wrong kernel file before i flashed... and
c (yes this was beyond stupid) i forgot to put the zip file onto the sd card... so when i was going to flash i didnt have anything to flash.
after that my baby kept still at the SonyEriccson screen.
I got the latest flashtool, flashed the Generic 2.3.3 and restarted from scratch.
I now have the Darkedition 1.5 installed. It looks really nice, but its just not my rom, so i will keep looking for a new rom. I'd like a smooth and sleak rom. just to keep it fast and furious.
i still love my phone, even after having it for over a year... something that's never happened to me before.
---------- Post added at 08:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 PM ----------
I downloaded the feralab 11 rom and will try and figure out how to get that installed properly without have to spend a few more days in a rom trying to fix my phone.
if anyone has any other suggestions for a clean and fast rom, i'm all ears.
Try feralab. Its pretty good

Ok, checking out Feralab v11.2 gaming edition rom. so far installation runs without problems... installed with unlocked bootloader Kernel from DooMKernel v6.
I hope it will run smooth. I'll keep you posted.
---------------
Rom istalled without a hitch. ran the script afterwards, and so far it runs smoother than i have ever seen this phone run!
Market isnt working yet, but that may require a few reboots and otherwise i'll get that fixed in another way.
Since i can post in the FeraVolt's thread, i'll just say THANK YOU over here. freaking nice work dude!
Google Play/Market not working
Did a complete reinstall, even preformatted the SD card, since it was full of crap anyway. did the install the way FeraVolt suggested. everything works fine, just not the market. anyone have a similar problem or sollution?
I tried to download the apk externally, didnt make a difference. I didnt see any other google apps? might the problem lie in a missing google framework? or missing other google apps? I havent had much time to spend reading into the issue, but hopefully tonight i can find out some more. meanwhile... any help is appreciated.

well i used Thgo v16 rom n cynogen rom in my xperia
but according to me champion swimmer is far better & smoother
