hi everyone
sorry if its a stupid question
im on fxp43 right now. do i really have to install 4.0.2.A.0.42 stock rom first before updating to fxp45??? this would force me to wipe my user data right?
thx in advance

in FXP's thread it is said that it's needed to upgrade 4.0.2.A.0.42 and then flash freeXperia kernel, so that by flashing kernel your user data will be wiped
this help me to get fxp05 without losing any app or data
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_Mini_Pro:_Full_Update_Guide
i've followed the steps after flashing the rom with fastboot and everything works fine
I just successfully updated from fxp43 to fxp47 by just installing update.zip from cwm recovery.
So that means 4.0.2.A.0.42 isnt really required or will i have some bugs now?
Time ago when i tried to update to fxp45 i stucked in bootloop, but now everything seem to work...

Have you tried redoownloading the zip file ? Just in case it is broken...
Otherwise, if you already flash nAa-11 kernel, you won't have any problems I think...

is your recovery tool xrecovery or cwm recovery. you'll be needing cwm based recovery but i believe it is included in the kernel. or you could have downloaded the wrong rom zipfile.

Hello, I'm using nAa kernel v011 & MiniCM 2.2.0, I wanted to revert back to stock 2.1, I tried SEUS and seus say my phone has the latest update installed, and there is just an exit button, can some1 help me? I tried flashing stock kernel and use SEUS but still ended with the same result

It is always suggested to take a backup of stock rom before installing any custom rom..have you taken any backups?
I did not make a backup when I flashed custom roms because I was a complete noob and I just flash a custom rom. Btw thanks for your reply.

Download any rom for ur device which completely works with stock kernel....
Then 1st do necesary wipes
Install custom rom
Flash stoock kernel...
Boot. Properly
And then try with pc companion or SEUS
But if I'm using a custom kernel and if I flash a rom that is compatible with stock kernel wont recovery will say incompatible kernel found? I've tried that before.
Sent from my E10i using XDA
Dude I mean a rom which is compatible wit both stock kernel and custom kernel
Well then can you tell me which rom is compatible with both kernel please? Thank you

u have already installed naa kernel, meaning that you have unlocked bootloader. this article said that you can update through SEUS if you have unlocked the bootloader. i'm not experienced with x10mp bootloader issue before this but my gtab7 experienced bootloader problem after unlocked,flash the stock bootloader and solved the problem.
but you said that you have flash the stock kernel and still cant install through seus. why dont you try to reinstall seus,mybe something wrong with it. and btw,did you manage to flash stock kernel successfully?

Hi there,
I adquired a X10a with BL unlocked and X10S V9 by Championswimmer rom. It was Sim unlocked with x10unlocked dot com software.
I installed xRecovery because i wanted to give it a try to DonutHD. After wiping and installing it thru xRecovery, i couldnt boot my phone.
So i opened Flashtool.
I used (accidentally) x10_v1_BLRelock.ftf.
Tried and successed to flash x10_2.3_aro.ftf but i couldn't unlock my bootloader.
It appears everytime i flash: - Loader : S1_Loader_Root_f851 - Version : R4A024 / Bootloader status : UNROOTABLE
and with every flashed stock rom, i cant use my cellphone radio, not with my original chip or any other.
This image appears when i run s1tool.
Does it have any solution? or my x10 is totally bricked?
Thank you.
Anyhelp!
Any help would be appreciated :/

I think its because you flashed custom ROM with custom kernel without cleaning your phone (factory reset, cache wipe and dalvik wipe) then you locked the bootloader and flashed stock ROM on custom kernel... Both X10S and donut HD rin on modified stock kernel... You need to root your phone again and unlock your bootloader, Once you achieved that go to CWM and do factory reset, wipe cahce and wipe dalvik cache... Now plug your phone with flashtool and flash the X10S.... If you are using donut HD then you need to flash the required kernel and then donut HD...
Im atttaching the required kernel which you can use with donut HD... If wifi doesnt work then flash wifi fix which is the 2nd attachment...
This kernel link was available till X10S v8.2/8.3 (both are by championswimmer) and now i cant find the link so im uploading here to help you out... hope this helps...

Flash the kernel using flashtool and WiFi fix using CWM....
Remember you flash the WiFi fix after you install the ROM.... and please do a total clean install... Also if X10s V9 gives you problem then try using X10s V8.2/8.3 and use the kernel and WiFi fix from above post.... good luck

In your phone go to settings-> apps-> unknown sources on and also turn on android debugging then Open flashtool and go to plugins tab under there you will find unlock boot option ... Check below link

As said in title, does the kernel you need to flash for CyanogenMod 9 on XU have inbuilt CWM? Noob here, been lurking a while though, just a little confused.
Thanks in advance, eskriminal

Wait a while, but if not booting then you need to flash stock rom, flash CM boot.img, and then flash the ROM again.

Thanks, but do i use the Sony tool to reflash stock? currently using (munjeni's i think?) cwm touch
could that be the problem?
also, what is the exact procedure to go from the flashed stock into flashing the rom? any cache wipes etc required?

Brother, you flashed a jelly bean kernel so you can just run CyanogenMod10 based roms(android 4.1.2 roms)
If you're going to flash a gingerbread rom(CyanogenMod7) (android 2,3) you must use a gingerbread kernel like : "nAa 14 gingerbread for x10mini"
Good Luck
