As fair as I'm aware, unfortunately a computer is necessary when upgrading. This is because the required baseband and kernel differ for each firmware, and can not be upgraded from the device.

So in trying to bundle them using flashtool but it doesn't show up when I try to bundle them, any ideas?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
Why bundle? Just place the firmware in the firmware folder and flash it.

Flashtool needs it to be bundled, it wouldn't work by putting the files in the folder

Hello JJones45! Did you try to repair the software using SEUS? That might help.
Best regards

Okay the Rom I am on is wolf's and I'm on BB 52 going to arch's rom with bb67, I did the patch before installing rom and it works but the kernel wont
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
probably, (most probably) that happens only with custom kernels. am i right?
if so you´ve downloaded the wrong files (boot.img, etc) be sure you install the right ones due to your rom/baseband/android version
Yep I tried the rom without the kernel, then once I flashed it, then it wont work. So what are trying files needed?

Man, follow all steps, there's no secret. When u did the last flash, do you know what went wrong?
No... It showed some "busybox" stuff, "pushing" some files.... Then asked me to reboot and upgrade kernel. On flashing n clicking upgrade... My fone became dead!

I have rooted my device running 2.3.3. I hv installed xrecovery. I installed update.zip using xrecovery. But when I'm Trying to install a custom rom from xrecovery this is what i get :
"Installing: SDCARD: X10-CM7-V011-XperiaArc-theme.zip

E: Can't move /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or/dev/block/mmcblk0)
