Delete RomManager now - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Rom Manager. Instant brick very easy. One little wrong choice and youre toast. Hardbrick=change of cpuboard. Or jig work.
I speak from xperience .
Seen too many post with noobs playing with this app. Its not for SE phones. So dont use it. Way too easy to brick.
Use xrecovery to make nandbackups. Doomkernel <-
EDIT:this is ofcourse ROM MANAGER APP. nothing else. sorry for confusion.

And where to find xrecovery for 2011 xperias ?
Don't tell me to search in the forum there's no post about it, expect one with compatibility problem with the ray.

if you know what you're doing it is impossible to destroy the phone, by the way cell phones service need to earn a little money

To be more precise

Ok, thx

[TUT] How to install walkman W8 firmware on X8

There is no need of porting this stupid rom it has got themed music player and new wallpaper nothing more plus no google apps
did you already try it yourself?
also, i think you need to modify build.prop, ro.product.model, make sure the value is not E15i/E15/E15a
YES! IT'S DOWNLOADING!
Gonna upload ftf in next few hours
Hmmm, but it is still Eclair and i guess SE wont upgrade it to Froyo or open the bootloader on it..

@as-mario, yes i already know that, what i said is, that you have to make sure that the ro.product.model is NOT E15 or E15i or E15a, so that SEUS won't detect the phone as X8

hmm, try changing ro.product.model value with W15, i think thats the original name for W8, just like X8 = E15
P.S : maybe you need to change the other X8-related value, like shakira, or X8

I don't know... no matter which phone you choose, SEUS will recognize the actual info from TA/GDFS.
Only stock FW has customization-related apps that read info from build.prop and write it to TA, so since I have it, I'm gonna try something about it
Can anyone give me link of some Indonesian forum where people have W8? I'd try with changing build.prop...

anyone got W8 or not?

(THINKTANK/DEV) X10 Gingerbread System Dump

Hey all, Infinitybiff here. I make awesome winzip romz. In all seriousness, I'm a bit of a developer. I'm hoping one of you fellas (or ladies) has managed to update their unbranded xperia to the 2.3 update that was released today. I'd like to get the file that the SE updater downloaded to your system or a system dump of the rom if at all possible. My intent is to make a custom rom flashable to all x10 (with root and busybox of course). I'm sure someone is already working on it, but figured i'd get the ball rolling.
If you want to update your unbranded x10 to 2.3 and help out the community, you can download the SE updater from HERE
update is not released yet the word is that its starts rolling out on friday

Hi Infinitybiff,
Do you have a X10 if so can you try and update and the upload all the files for us. as you live in the future.
When it is released im sure your support and work will be more than welcome.
welp. looks like all the sites that said its out are a bit off base. I stand corrected. *waits patiently*
You just cant simply supdate X10 to gingerbread by xRecovery.Our recovery cant touch the kernel and baseband.
We must update th kernel and baseband first,then by recovery.

I konw we have to update the kernel and baseband using flashtool first,then boot into xRec to flash the rom.It will be bad if we cant boot into xRec after flashing.jew kernel.Or we flash the rom first,then flash the kernel?

[Q]Restore to the first rom

I have the cm7 on my x10 mini and i want to restore to my first rom or delete this one somehow?
Thanks.
if you search the forum, others have suggested using pc companion to revert back to the original se rom.
next time, try using the search button

When you load pc companion or SEUS you will see a button to check for updates, it will then tell you the software is up to date but would you like to reinstall it anyway. If you click 'yes' it will then begin downloading the latest 'official' SE 2.1 ROM and install it (wiping your phone in the process).

Anyway, if you get in trouble with it, you can always manually flash an old official rom to it and then update it through SEUS.
thanks the SEUS worked but did it delete the recovery or not ?

wher i get it (SEUS) and how does this work.I have such a problem :´
I rooted my x10 mini android 2.1 to 2.3 CyanogenMod 7.0 with this version my SD card didnt work. Then tried CyanogenMod 7.9, after restart theres only Sony Ericsson logo on the screen, then I disconnectied battery and phone went to clockworkmode. From there I cant do anything. I have tried to restore( no files ) and then reinstall android but installation was aborted. when I reboot my phone then logo stays.
NEXT DAY: something happened, riht now only Sony Ericsson logo on the screen. clockworkmode does not work anymore!
I hope somebody can help me out. Its my first Android and im new at this.
Update ur phone using pc companion. Or Sony Ericsson update service ....

dont do it, use mini-04, which is stock rom + root and without all the se garbage.
Everything works perfectly and its fast and smooth.

thx i works just fine
normally i just use pc companian , then superoneclick to root, and titaninium back up to remove the se crap
but this is a lot faster

[Q] how to install kernel & custom rom neo V

Hi,
i am a newbie here. with help of the forum, i was able to root my xperia neo V running stock ICS. now that i want to try custom ROM - Polish Blood...
the topic for the same only gives an overview...
can somebody please guide me about going further with this...
i have downloaded the required files from the links on the topic
my neo V is rooted with a locked boot loader and have installed a few apps recommended (Titanium Backup, ROM Toolbox & ROM Manager)
do i need to install a kernel (if yes, which) or can i just install the ROM?
any help is appreciated
First you gotta unlock your bootloader to go further.

thanks

hi,
my phone doesn't boot beyond the SONY logo now

all that you can do now is to reflash your phone with a generic firmware using flashtool. Such threads are available in xda forum. look for it follow it. hope it works.

I have an Xperia S with ICS installed
I was wondering if flashing the 4.0.3 kernel from the Lt18 (pretty sure that firmware has rooting abilities)
onto the Xperia S
then Root
then Flash the Xperia S kernel back could possibly work?
I was going to give it a try earlier today but thought it would be best to ask if they're is any risk of perma-bricking the phone and unable to reflash before I did
