Hello,
So at my last reboot after installing update.zip from [ROM] CM7.1.0_RC1_J006 my screen is hang at "Free Xperia Project"...can someone help this newbie out by pointing out where did I go wrong?
I have flash the Baseband to 52 and when I go and check it says Baseband "unknown", does that mean its 52 or what? Also do I need to flash the Kernel or flashing Baseband will effect the Kernel also?
Thanks!
Where did you get the .52 baseband download from ?
Did you wipe the everything in xrecovery before flashing the Rom?

Baseband .52 came with CM7 .zip so I just use that. Since you're asking I'm guessing my Baseband "unknown" is not supposed to be "unknown" ?
I did not wipe everything in xRecovery before installing update.zip, what is the best way to start over fresh?
Thanks
Go into xrecovery and wipe the phone, cache, and d. Cache and re flash the cm7 rom.

Can someone tell me how to run the custom kernel made by z? Like exact instructions links needed clearly? I readed a few threads but didnt understand anything o.o
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
in that case its probably safer for you to just leave it alone. The kernel still needs work anyways and I myself am pretty firmilar with the flashing process and still managed to cause my phone to get stuck at the sony ericsson boot screen after flashing

Zzz like what the guy above me said, if your not 100% familiar with the flashing process then don't. Sigh might as well.
1 root your phone
2 install busybox and xrecovery
3 download the custom kernel
4 boot into xrecovery
5 install custom zip
6 select your kernel zip
7 wait a while, when done reboot
8 wait 10 min and done.

Hello everyone..
Im using Clean V5 found here: Great rom and pretty fast!
But im having issues with the phone constantly rebooting after flashing V6.
I downloaded the zip, copied it to the sdcard, rebooted phone into recoverymode, made a backup. Choosed custom zip had it flashed and after i made a full wipe and rebooted.
It gets stuck at the blinking marker, and after awhile it reboots and loops.
Note, i can go back into recoverymode and reset.

Are you use firmware 2.1.1.A.0.6?, if yes you must flash 2.1.1.C.0.0 firmware

Well since Im using V5 I should have the compatible firmware.
I cant check it either in my phones settings meny since it says Clean0.0.

Maybe you should re-flash again 2.1.1.C.0.0 original firmware. With this way you never got the problem

I perhaps could. I have a backup of the original firmware on my computer. That should work eh?
Or where can i find a standard/generic nordic firmware?

Love your dedication of helping
I just found a clean backup on my computer Ill restore and see what firmware it is and try V6 this weekend.
Edit:
The backup I had didnt have matching MD5 for some reasons but I managed to use SEUS and phone was restored to original firmware
I just flashed V6 and I do have compatible firmware "C.0.0" and holy cow it works!
Maybe the term 'firmware' is confusing. Because V6 -ROM- contains a dualtouch module that only works with the 2.1.1.C.0.0 -KERNEL- , it can cause problems.
There's a link in the first post of the rom thread (read carefully) to the right kernel (.ftf file) which you can flash using flashtool.
Sorry I didn't see this before, since V6 I'm just using the phone ;-)

Hello,
I have p500(indian) on old baseband and want to upgrade to new bb using lgmdp.. following are a few questions that i dint find an answer to.
1.what is the risk of having a bricked device if i turn off lg virtual modem..?
2. th lg virtual modem is shown as lge android platform usb modem.. is it the same..?
3. What rom and recovery should i be on to flash new baseband?
4. can i flash cm9 first and then new baseband?
5.my recovery takes around 5 seconds to show the options... it wasnt like this before.. is this normal? im on the recovery i firrst installed(amonra 1.2 the one with bad boot message)
6.before flashing a recovery zip or cwm from rom manger what precautions should i take?
7.In rom manager if i say install recovery.. it shows p500 and p500(oldbb) so if i flash old bb now and then upgrade.. will it work?
8. if flash the one without (oldbb) will my phone get bricked..?
Thanks for your answers in advance.. p500 was the best phone i got in my life.. and its not because of lg.. its because of its awesome community.!
> when i was on stock as you
> 1st I rooted ,this is A MUST 1st to do
> 2nd flash clockworkmod or amonra.. but cwm would be good for starters, just download rom manager at play store.. and u'll get it
> 3rd since ur on old baseband.. i suggest you flash cm7 rom or the on i modded then flash the old baseband fix so you dont need to upgrade
> incase you want to upgrade so u can also use cm9
> now is the time to use lgmdp .. Em not sure.. but i think its different ..virtual modem wasnt there when i switched baseband so i did not disabled any..
i think it good
Can anyone answer please..? cant find answers to these questions.. and neko man i think you misunderstood my question.. it partly answered one that is lg virtula modem maybe does not play an important part.. ppl please answer..
!
Well there are many tutorials out there on how to get new bb. Just follow them step by step. You have to flash it first then you can get CM9. Forgive me but some of your question sound like this "Will my phone work if I submerge half of it in water?". Don't worry just do as you're told on the tutorials All the best!

There is definitely a risk, and you have to follow the instructions clearly to avoid any risks. To be honest here, I bricked my phone thrice (yes! 3 times) using kdz updater. That's why I'd suggest that you don't upgrade to new bb using kdz updater

The only and most secure thing i have to prefer u to flash official froyo 2.2.2 on ur phone first... if u already using it then its ok... n if not then search a official froyo rom in zip format for flashing it via cwm recovery... after then... use lg pc suite for upgrading it to official 2.3.3 n ur phone will automatically updated to new bb too.
EDIT: Just clarify me what rom n recovery are u using...!?? What android version and baseband shows on ur phone....
Type in phone dialer to get BB details

are you saying I need to update the firmware first then root? Please provide link to rooting guide
Maybe I am to simple but installing cwm app, download your kernel, boot into recovery and then flash the kernel its the common way..

You can't possibly search for 3 hours, it's in stickys or first page. You just need to update firmware, root, install cwm, and install the rom. you don't even need a custom kernel

Okay so here is an update thanks for the help:
Updated the Rom
Managed to Root Phone got super user access
Installed X-Parts
Install CWF
Located the Rom I wanted to install, installed it, went to 100% ticked reboot. Now my phone is stuck at the Sony Logo
Any ideas?
I think i've managed to unbrick it and restore it to the official stock ROM. really confused as why it got bricked in the first place...I selected all the correct options on the rom very confused, I think I'm not going to risk another attempt at Xperia Ultimate HD ROM. Can anyone see where I went wrong?
Maybe you did something wrong while formatting?

Bad wipes? You should read installation instructions. Usually is wipe data, wipe cache, format system, wipe dalvik, and then install
You unlocked it right? Get a custom kernel wipe every partition and start again

Our device's recovery don't support flashing .IMG or .sin files, so flashing kernel in recovery is not possible...unlike Samsung phones which can flash kernel in recovery our phones can flash it in fastboot mode only...
