It says i need to run the file s1tool.exe to find out if semc.bat or setool2 is applicable for me.. I downloaded S1tool.exe.. and ran it..
After runnin the exe file i click on identify and connect my X10 via usb while pressing the back key but nothin happens .. Nothing at all ?!
What am i doing wrong
Not even able to downgrade kernel using flashtool.. i run flashtool and connect my phone by turning it off and holding the back button and connecting the usb wire but nothing happens !!!
There is no need to downrade the kernel.
1. download and install pccompanion
2. If you ar enot already on stock rom with stock kernel, then use pccompanion to repair back to stock. (If you are on a custom rom and stock kernel, ten that is ok as well.)
3. Download and install latest flashtool (V0.5.3.0)
4. Goto driver folder in flashtool folder and run ggsetup.exe
5.Atach phone to Computer and run flashtool, wait for computer to see the phone.
6. press the padlock icon to root it, follow instructions.
7. press plugins/unlock/run, follow instructions
8. flash the unlocked kernel of your choice in flashtool,
9. flash the unlocked romof your choice in xrecovery
10. flash any required wifi modules if you need them.
any problems, just PM me.
Can you please elaborate these:
8. flash the unlocked kernel of your choice in flashtool,
Where to get the kernel? What choices do i have? How do i select one?
9. flash the unlocked romof your choice in xrecovery
Same questions as for the kernel, How to flash using xrecovery?
10. flash any required wifi modules if you need them.
Whats a wifi module and why would i need one and where to get it from?
Ive done uptill step 7... Still havent got unlocked bootloader i think cuz i still see SE logo when i start phone

Follow the [wifi issues and ulbl] link in my signature, this will put you on latest wolf rom and latest doomkernel.
The links are all in there. Get latest wolf rom from his thread (V7b6)
If oyu want another rom follow the instructions from that OP.
But basically you need to do this.
1. unlock bootloader (Steps 1-7 in my previous post) Check to see if its unlocked by trying to unlock it again...(What did it say last time when you finished trying to unlock)
2. download doomkernel and wifi modules from the doomkernel for unlocked bootloader thread.
3. Flash the kernel in flashtool. (run flashtool, click on the lightening icon, navigate to where you saved the kernel, click ok, and follow instructions)
4. Reboot in xrecovery and flash the rom
5. reboot into cmw5 and flash the wifi modules (Instead of pressing back button, press the menu button, cmw5 recovery is just another recovery)
reboot, enjoy.

Thats because you havent flashed a new kernel yet....
get doomlords v06 kenel from the unlocked bootloader thread and flash it in flashtool
Stupid question, but once I have s1tool opened and identified x10 does that window need to stay open inorder to use the flashtool?

They are modules that allow you to use wifi. They are different ones needed for each kernel.
Just flash them in cmw recovery

Here is the tutorial for Installing stock 4.0.2.A.0.62 ROM plus root and CWM. I am not responsible or anyone mentioned below for bricking your phone in case, tested on my Xperia ray with unlocked bootloader using S1 tool.
Requirements
Unlocked Bootloader (preferred) although there is a work around for locked bootloader
4.0.2.A.0.62 FTF files
Flashtool
recoveryRay.img by and Rootxperia.zip b1n4ry (for rooting)
CWM
Installation:
How to Install stock 4.0.2.A.0.62 ROM:
Download this stock 4.0.2.A.0.62 ROM. Thank you Aire for providing the link.
After download you will have a zip file. Extract it.
Download flashtool here and extract it.
Create FTF file using flashtool from the 4.0.2.A.0.62 ROM zip you extracted earlier. Now if you don't know how to create FTF files, there's a good tutorial here.
If you successfully created FTF file, you should see a file with extension “.ftf” in the “firmwares” folder inside “FlashTool” folder
Run the executable “X10FlashTool.exe” located in the FlashTool folder
Now click “Flash” button and select flashboot. Now select the firmware from the popup menu. Make sure “Wipe user data” box is checked and then click “OK”.
The application will ask you to put your Ray in flashboot mode, to do this turn off the phone, hold the volume down button while while connecting the USB cable to your computer.
Follow the on screen instruction and your device will reboot. Notice that the reboot process will take longer at first.
How to install Root
Please note that this is only applied to devices with unlocked bootloader. Alternately, you can just install a custom kernel and root using zergrush method but if you want to try the .62 kernel from this stock rom then do this.
Download rootxperia.zip here and place it in your sd card
Enter device in fastboot mode. Turn off phone, hold volume up while you connect the USB cable to computer
Download the recoverRAY.img provided below, you will get a zip file, extract it.
Open folder inside Flashtool where fastboot.exe exists (/FlashTool/x10flasher_lib)
Place the recoveryRAy.img inside the folder
Open command line in this folder
Test if it recognize your device, to do this type fastboot devices, if there is a result here proceed.
Now here's the tricky part, to enter a temporary recovery type fastboot boot recoveryRAY.img
*Notice that we didn't use fastboot flash boot ****.img here because as bin4ry said this recovery is designed to work just as recovery, if you flash it to your device it will NOT boot system anymore! This is just a temporary recovery for you so be careful not to flash it.
Now wait and your phone will reboot, you will see the FREE XPERIA splash screen and your device will now enter temp CWM recovery
On your phone choose install custom zip, locate the rootxperia.zip you added earlier in your SD card and flash it.
Reboot, your device is now rooted.
*to root your device with locked bootloader, they say you can install previous stock kernel and root using zergrush method.
How to install CWM
Download this then extract
Make sure you enabled USB debugging, and also you need to set Screen timeout to 10 minutes so you don't miss the superuser promt
Run install-cwm1.cmd from the folder
Follow screen on screen instruction, reboot.

Aire said, his current kernel supports .62 but they are currently working for repack based on this new firmware.
I haven't tried installing any custom firmware at the moment, I want to test this stock firmware for changes and improvement especially the baseband and battery consumption.

Hm ok, btw, can you post the original link for rootxperia.zip?
EDIT: sorry you already did that thanks!
UPDATE: I'm trying to do SEUS update now though. Hope this thing won't brick..
UPDATE 2: SEUS update won't brick our phone if it uses the Testpoint method O what a happy day it is.. Let's see if i can flash aire kernel back.
is that a global version or what ? some people said, that version has some bugs..
can we root this version with the new DoomLord v4 Root ?
from the Arc forum, i found that they can root their device with .62 firmware just by using flashtool.. can we do that so ?
thx

The firmware is provided by Aire, however if you encounter ftf generic firmware, it will be nice if you post it here.
As to bugs, I'm using this firmware for a day now and I noticed improvement in battery and speed, no bugs so far. I haven't tried the doomlord v4 root, but rooting via recovery is easy.

O that.. That means you need to unlock the bootloader (at least with Test Point method). Never thought that won't work before.
most download link from MultiUpload cannot download the firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62 ROM, any alternative link?

If your bootloader is still locked you can not root your device using that method. The only work around is to install previous kernel and root using zergrush method.

Thank you "idareyoutoclickthis" and "hansip87" for your replies.
In fact I had rooted my Ray earlier 4.0.2.A.0.42ver using the zergrush method using DooMLoRD_v4_Root Which I lost when I upgraded to 4.0.2.A.0.62ver. Now DooMLoRD_v4_Root won't work with 4.0.2.A.0.62ver update.
Now what about the bootloader thing? Sorry for being so dumb. Can you please elaborate a bit? I've got only got to the point wherein i checked the status using the service menu (*#*#.....#*#). It only says Rooting Status: Bootloader unlocking allowed: Yes.
What do I have to do now? Please help.

Indeed .62 is the latest built which include alot of improvements specially on batter issue.
If you don't want custom rom and kernel and is contented with the stock ROM and kernel then you don't need to unlock your bootloader.
to root your device, you need to flash stock 4.0.2.A.0.42 kernel only, you can do this with locked bootloader and root using zergrush method.

Can anyone help me. From vietnam
First of all, im newbie and i dont know much about this
I installed new wolfbreak v7 rom on xperia x10 but i cant get wifi working. I've read that i need doomlord's unlocked bootloaders so i downloaded .ftf file but i cant flash it, i get this in flashtool (newest version):
17/007/2012 13:07:13 - ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed"
I was following this thread but i cant get it to flash.
And i know i need that CWM recovery to flash the wifi.zip file but how do i get that recovery.
If anyone can tell me how do i unlock bootloader on my phone (xperia x10). My phone is not sim-unlocked, only rooted.
Initially (from a shop) in the phone the bootloader is locked.
If you want to flash a kernel for unblocked bootloader, then at first it is needed to execute procedure of unlocking of bootloader.
how do i do that?

Hi, I'm on wolf's Rom.
First of, did you make a clean install starting from 2.1?
Then after rooting your phone & putting xrecovery onto it, you have to unlock your bootloader with the same flashtool. ( plug in phone & press unlock bootloader in flash tool)
After that's done, enter xrecovery, wipe everything(factory reset etc.) & install Wolf's Rom for UB Important is, do not reboot, take out your battery & flash dooms kernal through flash tool!!
When that's done, you can install dooms WiFi fix through xrecovery!!
Hope I could help you out

For all of you having problems with unlocking bootloader. Simply follow this(I did this with Wolfbreak's v7 ROM on):
1. Download the latest Flashtool v0.6.7.0(you can get it here)
2. Run it, then plug the device.
3. (In flashtool) Go to Plugins> Unlock bootloader.
4. Follow the instructions in flashtool(always look at the log)
5. Done, your bootloader is unlocked.
Hope this helps
Download link is not reuploaded
EDIT: Oh and yeah, don't forget to install the flashtool drivers, it can be found on the install directory "Flashtool\drivers". If a message appears while installing just click "Install this driver anyway" it will appear many times, just keep on clicking it til installation is done. Good Luck everyone!

some say to flash the Doomskernel after Bootloader unlocking , and then install the ROM , what is the correct procedure ..
Details here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1503211
Hi all ,
i might be getting my mini next week or so ~! and i am damn excited ( i killed my w8 and ace is too expensive )
but i would love to have a custom rom for my mini
- i did some research and this is what i found
-i wanted hybrom and in order to use it i need an unlocked bootloader
-so i went to http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_Mini_Pro:_Full_Update_Guide to see how it's done
-i somewhat understand it but....
here are my doubts
-how do you get ''fastboot'' and ''android SDK''?
-does it work for pro only ? how about just mini?
-when it says open ''terminal '' (on 5) what does it mean terminal ? i search my computer and there is no such thing as terminal ...
-oh and does unlock BL need a rooted phone? (should i root before unlock or unlock 1st?
-in order to use hybrom must i use a custom kernel ?
so can anyone help me?
You can see this link to download fastboot and android SDK (Use on unlocking bootloader)
I used that on unlocking the bootloader of my xperia mini ST15i and i believed that it can be use on any xperia 2011 devices.
I rooted my phone first before I unlock the bootloader.(I dont know if it can be the other way around)
To flash the Hybrom ROM, you need a custom Kernel.
Hope this help.
wait...thats for arc...is the steps the same?
Yeah.You will notice its for Xperia Arc but can be use on 2011 Xperia Devices.
Just follow the steps.
oh...so the diffrence is only the files that need to be donwload / execiuted / extracted?
Nope.You download and use the file in that link i gave to you.
huh?? u used Unlock Xperia Arc Bootloaders.zip file?
Yes.Like I said earlier it can be use on any xperia 2011 device.If your in a big doubt you can search around the forum.

but if on .62 u should follow :
this method for no require unlocking bootloader,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1455216

FW is Firmware.. it is Permanent software programmed into your phone.. .58 and .62 is the FW version.. different FW version is difference method used to root..

yes, but on .62 version u cant root using flashtool.
dont root it, just unlock bootloader, flash kernel and then ROM
unlock using SE website, obtain key and download this file- http://www.mediafire.com/?0m6xovf60yx9xn3
extract this rar file, go to 'fastboot' folder, press 'shift' key and right click on background of folder,
select - 'open command window here' , connect phone holding vol+ and enter the commands written on SE bootloader unlock page
wow i read some comments on the mini ..the comments are quite bad ...they say keep force close , screen sucks etc ...at least in the malysian community ..a litle doubtful

but without root i cant use apps like tita backup etc ..and when you flash kernel does it come with auto root / cwm? how do you enter cwm with mini?
and i heard there are some overheat issues with the phone .. is this a serious issue ? is there a solution?

Note:
1.Follow the instructions carefully if you don't then I am responsible for your bricked devices.
2. Always make backup of your contact, data on sdcard etc.
Make sure you have installed adb drivers or install sony pc companion it installs adb drivers for your device automatically.
Steps:
1. In your phone goto setting->developer setting-> turn on usb debugging.
2. Then again goto setting->xperia->connectivity->usb connection mode-> make it msc mode.
3. Again goto setting->security->check unknown sources.
4. Now turn off your device.
5. Now flash your Neo L with Neo v Kernel file (MT11i_4.1.A.0.562_kernel.ftf)(WHILE FLASHING DONT SELECT ANY DEVICE FROM THE MENU OF FLASH TOOL AS NEO L IS NOT LISTED IN THE FLASH TOOL MENU.).
You'll only get vibration but screen does'nt turns on.
But still usb debugging'll be working.(if your phone doesnt turn on here, remove usb and turn on and then reconnect usb, no need to panic).
7. Now use downloaded DooMLoRD_v1_Xperia-2011-ICS-ROOT-emu-busybox-su and simply run runme.bat.(if you get an error like adb driver out of date than install adb.exe from
DooMLoRD_v1_Xperia-2011-ICS-ROOT-emu-busybox-su\files\adb.exe
and if it doesnt work start task manager and kill any process like adb.exe and then again open adb.exe and install it while your device is connected
)
8. Now your device will be rooted.
9. Remove and reinsert your battery.
10. Finally flash Neo L MT25i_4.1.B.0.626_KERNEL.ftf (download link in the first post) downloaded by you.
11. Now your device is rooted , turn it on.

First... thank you very much really I appreciate your efforts..I have seen your post "The Dessert Journey" two days ago and it really is a wonderful post, especially for neophyte like me
my phone neo l and the build number of my stock firmwaer is 4.1.B.0.479.. when I follow the step you mentioned that related about your note
There are four firmwares for NeoL .479, .587, .626 and .631(latest) but the latest firmware for Neo/V is .587 so almost all the roms/mods/themes are based on .587..so i suggest you guys to upgrade to .587 and stay on it..atleast for now..
You can use this guide for rooting all four firmwares .479, .587, .626 and .631.
From now on i'll be referring to your 'Current Firmware' as 'CF'

You have to flash the .562 kernel (as only this kernel is directly rootable)
Root using th DooMLorD's kit
flash .479 kernel again or any version(.479,.587,etc)
You're good to go

You said you've unlocked your bootloader. Most custom ROM's require custom kernels which again require an unlocked bootloader.
Anyway, to unlock your bootloader you have to charge your phone to 100% and follow this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254087
To flash a custom kernel you will need the flashtool provided in the above tutorial and a custom kernel of your choice.

If that still don't work then download and install - update_service_setup-2.11.4.11 (SEUS) Work's every time for me.
Then follow above instruction's for rooting etc.
Make sure you are using the latest version of flashtool's for - rooting - installing recovery - unlocking boot loader.

1) your phone is not bricked, relax
2) you have only 2 ways for flashing: through CWM with a zip or with flashtool a ftf
3) "Search for stock 2.3.3 generic ftf file, flash with flashtool then root"
4) first unlock bootloader,read carefully instructions in flashtool software, it takes time and many reboots in if I remember. then flash a CUSTOM kernel with flashtool for your rom,
5) enter into cwm and wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition and advanced/wipe dalvik, then install zip from sd card, it will install your custom rom.

It wont coz his bootloader is locked. He probably can try flashing stock base rom that support LB. But it might didnt worked cause 1.6 might have older baseband version.
