I just flashed this ROM but the only issue is that after I install the 2nd HotFix, it doesn't show any ICS layout changes.
I don't understand why.
Anyone got an idea?
i had the same issue, so i reflashed everything again(including the wipe and cache wiping) without flashing hotfix2 for the second time. and it worked
Worth it?

I have set up everything already and all. Is it worth it to do all that again? Does it have the ICS theme?

for me, the theme started working properly after doing a second install, just did the steps over again and it worked pretty well for me. i don't know how or why, but it worked for me, also note that i didn't install the hotfix 2 on the second install.
The ROM has been updated to v1.2.4, so maybe worth giving that a try?

Hi guys,
I've got a big problem, I've used "format/system" in xRecovery and now when I reboot, I'm only getting the Sony Ericsson logo. I did a backup on SDcard but I'm a Mac user so I've used Crossover to use SEUS and try to restore. The problem is the phone isn't detected, only the green LED is turn on but nothing happen on the Mac...
I'm gonna try on PC, but if you can help me ... it will be great !!
(Sorry guys for my english, but I'm a french student who spend more time on his X10 than in english class !)
I think you use flashtool and flash a 2.1 firmware
Flash Tool
2.1 Firmware can also be found in the flashtool post.
Can you use xRecovery after this problem?
If so, why don't you restore the backup that you have made ?

I think the format erases the xrec. In this case, as the colleague up there told him flashtool is the solution.

same problem here but i have tried flash tool many time.what shall i do?
Hi jojooo89,
I suppose crossover might not help you in flashing even thought it might detect the phone after some tinkering.
flashing works only on windows either throught SEUS or flashtool...
the reason being usbflash.dll is only on windows.

If you can still get into x-recovery, you could try mounting your SD card, copying over a ROM and then installing it with x-recovery

This is not true. In 'Partition Tools' there is a 'Format System' option that formats everything including the system files/folders. Since XRecovery files are in the 'System' folder using this option removes XRecovery. There is a warning in the XRecovey thread to never use this option without having another system image to replace it with.
I would assume based on that warning though that there is some way to replace the system but thats a question for Z.

Hey everyone!
I have a huge problem. I tried to update my OS from cm10 5.1 kernel v16 to cm10 8.1 kernel v18.
I used system format, and when I start my phone it just showed me CM10 logo.
I tried to flash to stock verision, somehow I managed it, but now SE logo on my phone, and I can not flash again, because when I flash my phone it's starting itselfs automatically, so the flashing stops
Could someone help me? I hope you could understand what I wrote.

Wasn't with this phone, but when i used LG GT400 i had some problems as well and it really needed some hardware repairing in the store.
So maybe your phone needs a repairing as well, because in time some things in the phone start to lose it's capacity.
Or, you could change your camera apk and see if it still reboots the system, or it can be something about the SIM card as well because i was told that the problems i had with the LG phone could be because of the SIM card, so maybe a good idea is to change SIM card and take phone to Repair if the camera apk change doesn't work, and if going back to the Eclair Original ( not flashing a backup, not rooting, not having cwm, just flashing the Eclair Original by SEUS ) doesn't work either.
i just opened the phone and noticed that the sim holder tape is a bit cut, not cut at all but i think the wires has contact to each other.
can that problem be from that?
what can i do to be sure that thats the problem so to replace it.....

Hey All,
I tried looking up answers here and via google, but all of them refer to bootloops/hangs after flashing a rom.
I've been using the prerooted JB rom via the guide given by Pandemic . Following the guide to the letter, the rom is working fine, and the recovery is accessible after installing via atis112's method. However, the problem I've run into is that whenever I restore a backup through CWM after flashing a mod (tested with Cybershot mod and ACiD audio mod), my phone hangs upon cold booting.
Immediately after restoring the backup, the phone boots into the restored OS without any problems, and hot boots (Power button + Volume Up button) also work fine - when I power off the phone and then start it up, it hangs on the sony logo (no bootloop, and can't access CWM recovery), after which I have to use flashtool and follow Pandemic's guide again to get JB. I've tried the following methods to see if anything changes, but the result is the same:
Method 1:
1- Backup through CWM recovery
2- Flash mod and wipe cache+dalvik cache
3- Reboot and test mod
4- Reboot and access recovery
5- Restore created backup
Result: Hangs at cold boot
Method 2:
1-4: same as method 1
5- Advance Restore > restore only /data from created backup
Result: Hangs at cold boot
Method 3:
1-4: same as method 1
5- Normal restore
6- Wipe data/factory reset (preserves any changes on /system, wanted to see if /data was the culprit)
Result: Hangs at cold boot​
The above 3 methods were also tried by wiping cache+dalvik cache after restoring the backup, but that had no effect either. Has anyone else been having the same or a similar problem? Can someone kindly refer me to a solution to this?
Edit 1: The phone was finally able to boot into android after about hanging at the sony logo for about 20-25 mins. Tested restoring various other restore points and each time the phone hung for about 20 minutes or so. After that initial boot, the phone boots up within a minute as always. Still haven't been able to narrow down the problem causing the delay on the first boot.
@H4R81N63R bro,I think that's because you installed cybershot mod and AC!D . Try with a clean install of the rom and try installing only cybershot without intsalling AC!D and check if boots without issues. Not sure if this causes the issue but test it if you want.
Thanks for the suggestion. Flashing works fine and the phone boots up without issues. Its just that whenever I restore any backup I had made before flashing the mod, the phone takes a long time at the sony logo only during cold boots (kind of annoying really).

Tried that as well, still the same. The hang ups seem to vary in time though, sometimes its just 10 mins, other times its about 30 mins. Is it possible to somehow see the processing that android is doing during bootup to see where its hanging up (similar to desktop OS'es)?

Can't - have a locked bootloader (might unlock it if someone figures out how to bring back the drm keys, or to circumvent them). It's possible that the devs might know something about this issue, but I'm not sure who to call on.

Hello people, since today i have the exact same problem as the topic maker
I am on stock Jelly Bean 6.2.A.1.100 with thesliding XP kernel (tried v8.3 and v9 beta with same results)
I am really frustrated right now because i don't have cybershot mode nor acid, it started to happen today after i tried a custom rom and didn't liked it so i did a restore with the backup i made .... :/

I haven't been able to find a solution yet. For now, the only thing that works is to boot it up so that it gets stuck on the sony/kernel logo and wait till it boots into the OS (may take 10 mins, or may take 40, can't seem to find a pattern). I do tend to attach the power cable just to be sure that it doesn't run out the battery.
A little off topic and near to your problem, cybershot is only supporting ICS roms at the moment, but I have found that their 4.7.2 and 5.1.1 work with the JB based MoonBreakers v3.5 rom that I have. As for AC!D, haven't been able to make their mod work on JB yet (even the universal one supporting JB 4.1 and above doesn't work).
Hello all, i just wanted to share with you that i have successfully fixed the problem and here is what i did :
I just used Flashtool and flashed the latest stock JB FW which was on the phone earlier, but i unticked the "Wipe data" option, after that i flashed again a custom kernel and now the phone boots normal and i didn't loose any data
Actually that doesn't fix the problem - we are talking about restore because we have multiple mods installed as well - we can't just keep reinstalling all of them every time we test something new.

Is the next cold boot faster then? If yes, I could live with that.
@ChikeD
Nope, still the same. Even with my second phone with unlocked bootloader I'm stuck at Sony logo after restore
I somewhere read that immediately after restoring the backup reflashing the kernel should help, but that's only an option for UB I guess.
Didn't try that yet.

Tried both, doesn't work. Is it the apk which has the problem, or ICS itself, because other devices (e.g. Samsung phones) also had the issue, look here.

if your bootloader is locked then repair your phone through pc companion.
otherwise do a fresh install of your rom by flashtool. obviously check wipe data,cache,appslog

I appreciate your reply but I have before flashed ICS countless times and flashed many ROMs where I have had to wipe data via CWM (also format the system) none of these have worked. Plus before I became familiar to flashtool I used to use PC Companion/SUS to apply updates. I think it is ICS itself-does anyone else have this problem?
EDIT: JUST CHECKED ON MY BROTHER'S ST15i AND HIS STOCK BROWSER ALSO EXPERIENCES THE FC ON ICS.

i had problem of touch and some apps gave me fc which were solved by repair phone..
Thanks for the input. Best thing to do is ignore it, I've just installed Opera Mobile Classic which is faster , it may not be the same but it works. Also I disabled the stock ICS browser via app manager because I probably won't use it.

Dude, wrong place to post this question. This is not the appropriate thread to post queries.
Solution:
There is a app named "Bluetooth Fix Repair" on playstore.Download & install the app from playstore
Here is the link of GooglePlay store Download
Run the app. Tap on screen to FiX Bluetooth. thats simple. now bootloop problem is solved. restart your device. turn on Bluetooth to check. TA DA....

Same problem happened to me also. Performed a full wipe and restored a nandroid backup. And about the app, the reviews in play store are not very promising.
jamshadinho, if you don't have any important data on the device, then perform a full wipe and flash the stock ICS with flashtool.
And BTW if a phone bootloops, how the h**l can we install an app from play store??????? chiyaanchinnu, please think about that before commenting on someone's problem.
