I'm trying to unlock my bootloader because I want to try cm7.
I'm following the instructions from here.
I downloaded that downloadinf and placed it in usb_driver folder, i overwrote the old file, but when i go to device manager in windows and try to install the driver by pointing to the usb_driver folder, it gives this error:

Sent from my MT15i using xda premium
I downloaded them from se website.
Now i tried with drivers i found on this page: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK.
I can install them and I see Android ADB Interface in my device manager but when i go to cmd and type adb devices it doesnt show any device.
U have to plug in usb to phone with fastboot mode
Sent from my MT15i using xda premium
My phone is plugged in and the phone LED is blue, so I think it's in fastboot mode.
Also in device manager I can see Android Phone > Android ADB Interface.
But when I go to CMD and do adb devices i get:
List of devices attached
But i see no device.
Just go to Device manager, find Android ADB Interface. Click right mouse button and choose to install new driver. You need to pick it manually, so dont point to folder with driver but "choose driver from list" now click from drive(i got in another language so I dont know exactly button name), find that new driver. After that, You need to choose Android Bootloader not ADB.
Now driver should be installed correctly. Try it.
I started completely over again on the notebook from my mother with another tutorial and I think I got it working now.
Thx for trying to help me

The sony ericsson tutorial/drivers didn't work for me.
I started completely over on another computer with this tutorial/ and that worked for me.
Do not searhc for driver in usb:driver folder. You need to choose that driver manualy.

Manuali...open device manager and manualy install.
About language.....if you are rooted then install root explorer...go systen/app and delete your bloatware etc..setupwizard.apk and those apps. Its my opinion.

Problaly something went wrong.
You can try edit your build.prop and disable setup function.
But make backup. For editing you can use file managers or some apps.

No thats wrong way...
Lets take an example -
You want to flash recovery -
Command will be
Fastboot flash boot recovery(whatever name it is).img
The recovery file must lie in folder where you have the fastboot.exe
Note- fastboot boot recovery.img is only a temporary solution
And
fastboot flash boot recovery.img is a permanent solution

idk what im doing wrong. I know im a little rusty at this but i did root my nexus 1 couple yrs ago and i dont remember having any problems
i followed the steps in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426377
i unlocked the bootloader but i'm getting stuck at #3. (im on a Mac)
on page 4-5 of that thread some1 else was stating they were getting stuck also. i tried to do what they did but it still not working. they also said something about choosing the option "install from SD card"...but im not seeing that option anywhere (& i do have debugging enabled)
I've put the .zip file on my sd card but when I go to fastboot on my phone, it just says keep saying "no image or wrong image"
this is what it says when i try to fastboot

Try this...
Download this- http://d-h.st/Vsy
then extract the folder within the zip to your home folder.
open a terminal (it should start up in your home folder)
type sudo chmod 777 Recovery_Flasher
then type cd ~/Recovery_Flasher
once there type ./Flash.sh
Let me know if you get errors... i will try to fix them for you. also, this will reboot your phone into recovery mode when its done to test if it worked. if 4ext recovery loads then it worked
thanks!!!
but could u elaborate on what or where exactly this "home" folder is? the android folder? or is it folder on my sd card?
and i tried to enter those commands in terminal and all i got was "no such file or directory'

You need to find a recovery image. I think the command in fastboot is ./flash recovery.IMG. dont forget commands in mac are ./ then the command.

I believe its answered in very detailed manner in some threads! Why don't you read that first?
And to say the gist,
Flash. 562 kernel
Root using rooting kit
Flash. 587 kernel
Done! You've rooted your phone!

The easiest way to root a Xperia mobile is as following
First unlock bootloader that you can do using official Sony site
Then instal Flashtool from androxide's official site
Then instal it on your PC . Go to c drive of your PC, then you will see a folder named Flashtool there you will see a folder named drivers instal drivers of Xperia mini x10 ( as it is same as your live with Walkman)
Download rage kernel from net its a custom kernel which has CWM and su binaries .copy it to your desktop
Now connect your mobile in your PC with holding volume up button a blue led will glow showing your mobile in fastboot mode. If it is win 7 it will install ADB drivers by itself if it is win xp then download PDA net on PC and install it it has ADB drivers.
Now after all this the rooting is very easy it won't result in bricking as it is the safest method
Connecting you phone in fastboot mode click open Flashtool and then click flash icon on top left select fastboot mode then another page will open select kernel to flash . Browse kernel it will be boot.img which you have kept on desktop select and Flashtool will automatically instal it in your device. Check the log. It will say reboot your device. Then take it out and start tour phone. It will show blue led after boot press volume up or down you will see cwm recovery.
Means you have rooted phone

Hi,
I unlocked the bootloader of my SK17i via the testpoint, now I am trying to install a custom kernel (rage kernel).
It seems that there is no way for the device to go to "fast boot mode" it goes to "flash mode". I really don't know what the is going.
I even tried the "Reboot into fast boot" option, nothing happened..
I installed without any error the drivers.exe file that was into the flash tool (OS: windows XP SP3)
The firmware is 4.0.2.a.0.62, flashtool version: flashtool-0.9.10.1
here is the log of the flash tool

Thank you in advance for any info/help
First of all - Did you install the fastboot driver for your phone?
Also,did you hold down volume up button while connecting your phone to pc?
Also again,is your phone have status Bootloader Unlock Allowed : No?If yes,you can't use fastboot sorry...even without unlocking bootloader,the device with yes status can access fastboot

It seems it was an issue with the USB ports! When I connect the mobile to any USB 1.1 port (its an old Thinkpad, as my main system runs win8x64 and its not easy to install non signed drivers there..) the XP did not pop up the info that found "fastboot device" etc etc. After I used an USB 2.0 PCMCIA card everything went well!
Just to reply to your questions, the Bootloader unlock status is YES, I connected the XMP when I pressed the volume UP (notification LED was Blue) and as I mention I installed all the drivers from the drivers.exe that came with the flashtool. It seems that the device cannot connected to fastboot mode using USB 1.1 ports...
I have the same problem. I am in cm10 now with their extended kernel. But now, when I try to flash any kernel, my phone desn't connect with flashboot mood. It always connect with flash mood. I have installed proper drivers.
So, why this is happening?
