Try install wb stock kernel version.
Its work great here.
Custom kernel in unlocked BL still have deepsleep issue, thats why i advice you to flash doom advance stock and wolf stock version.

I have a similar problem. I think my phone is incompatible with DoomKernel. What I did was flash a different custom kernel and so far it's working okay.
Hi guys, I advice to restart all in zero.

If you have an unlocked bootloader, then you don't need azuzu's rooting method, just simply flash the doom kernel v5 through flashtool then install your favourite custom rom.

I'm trying to install a KA07 Xperia SSpeed Rom.
But i stuck at boot animation.
What i did?
Unlocked the Bootloader.
Flashed Xperia S .76 FTF.(It is booting).
Then flashed the Advance stock kernel form DOOMLord.
Booted into .76 FW,its working.
Then Rebooted into recovery.
Wiped Dlavik Cache.
Wiped Factory Reset.
Installed KA07_Xperia_SSpeed.zip
But it stuck at boot animation.
Why?
hello (and sorry for my bad english)
try this (that's what i do and it's ok) :
-flash76 ftf with flashtool and reboot for a while (10mn, try if all is ok)
- flash 76 preroot with fastboot and reboot for a while...
- install doom kernel (v1a, wifi modules, etc...v4a...aroma..) and boot for a while
-boot in doom recovery for wipe dalvik cache and install ka07 with aroma...
-boot for a while, try the rom,
-boot in recovery and format cache, wipe dalvik
I have done this and , for my phone, all is ok...
I have read some people have installed first the ka6 then ka7...
I wish it can help you...
Hey, I hope I can get some help here. I'm a total noob and I don't know if other similar threads apply to me. Anyway, I have a rooted Xperia Neo V, with ICS 4.0.3 and I used ROM Manager app to casually flash the "Xperia Pureness" ROM I downloaded. I didn't do a full wipe because I was too stupid to look at the instructions. Is this fixable?

Thank you. At some point the instructions require that I enter *#06# on my phone but I can't boot, it gets stuck at the Sony logo. Is this step necessary?
as can be interpreted u have a unlocked bootloader( i guess that's right)
you can try to use Sony Ericssion Update service to restore your phone to ICS

I used SEUS to install stock rom . Now its working but all apps are gone.
so i can install any custom rom? Also did this happen because i didnt wipe dalvik cache bfore installing the rom.

Ya ..you can install custom ROMS now i hope u hv boot loader unlocked ..head over to the Neov development section and download the ROM you want ..Follow the instructions really carefully while installing ROMS
And the answer of your second question is NO. When installing stock ROM or repairing it all apps and setting are gone nothing to do with wipe dalvik cache
Problem persists
So i tried installing pureness once more, this time i made sure i wiped davik cache. Same problem stuck at SONY and so had to revert to stock once more. I havent unlocked BL yet. Is it necessary for installing Pureness. Also can somebody tell me if i am doing it right.
1) used flash tool to downgrade to .562
2)rooted using Doomlords tool
3)Used flash tool to upgrade back to .431
4)Installed cwm auto installer apk from google play
5)Installed cwm
6)Booted into recovery
7)Made a backup
8)Used install from zip option to install Pureness
9) reboot and its stuck
Cant even access cwm since its stuck at that point , so i cant use the backup also right.
First, flash a specific kernel for that ROM.. Look for the link for kernels in the above post!
Flash the kernel first.. Reboot into recovery... Wipe data, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache... And then install zip from sd card!
Reboot your phone! You'll be done now!
flashing kernel
I am guessing for flashing the kernel , i have to unlock bootloader.
You didn't unlock your bootloader?!
You definitely can't flash a custom kernel without unlocking it!
I suggest you go with the official Sony's way..
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
BL
but that will void my warranty right and i will no longer be able to use SEUS for reveting to stock.
Yea.. That would void your warranty!
But unlocking the bootloader will allow to install custom ROMs which shall be very fast and smooth as compared to the stock one... and I don't think you'll revert back to stock!
Though relocking can be done but you won't be able to update your phone through over the air updates!
It's your choice!
1. Unlock bootloader using sony's,
Method
2. Flash the custom kernel
3. Get into CWM
4.wipe delvic/data/battery stat
5. Install custom rom
6. Install gapps(if necessary)
7.wipe delvic
8. Reboot
That are common steps
Also use the recommended kernel by the developer
Also follow his instruction...if in doubt serch if still confused post here

I wonder what is the safest way to upgrade the rom from FXP132 to 133 in my Xperia S. Do i have to reflash the kernel and install gapps again???
Thanks for help
After alot of retries the only working combination is the follow:
-format system
-wipe data/factory
-wipe dalvik
-install CM9
-install gapps
-turn off phone
-boot phone to fastboot mode
-flash the extracted boot.img using fastboot
Check out my post here, it's just a quick guide on how to upgrade to 133 from 132 without losing data, hope I helped :good:
I installed Shin Engine v3 and SE V5 but both dont worked. I followed that steps:
"Installation
Download Rom and copy to Sd card
Reboot into CWM Recovery
enter Mount and Storage -> /format system
Wipe data/factory reset -> Wipe cache partition enter Advance -> /wipe dalvik cache /wipe battery stats
Flash ROM = wait until finish
Reboot. Done". That you can get it here. "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551522"
I unlock root and bootloader, installed nAa 11 Kernel.
Then after I install the rom I reboot and then the cellphone keep rebooting infinitely.
What can I do?
Flash Alfs v08a CM7 no FPS cap version(optional, but always working+better performance). I tried these ROMs and they worked. However, if you use an ICS ROM like ShinEngine V3(not BostonEngine v5), you MUST use nAa ICS kernel!! Otherwise it won't work for you. If you have the correct kernel, correct ROM and still not working, try reflashing the ROM and NOT wiping everything and vice versa.
Good luck!
