mmm i believe the best update for u20i is to MiniCM7 2.1.8 + nAa - 10 Kernel from NobodyAtAll.
visit the development section of the x10 mini pro to check the rom and the kernel and download them.
i'll revert back to you with a full tutorial on how to flash your phone with an update 2.3.7 within 6 hours as eyes are around me here at work i can't stay on XDA too long!
thanks

And you thought it made sense to post this in the development forum .....because?
Do you honestly think its ok for any old random crap to be posted in here, if it was allowed thsi forum would be a complete mess. Use correct forum, put "questions" in the hmm maybe the "questions" forum. This forum is for "developments". If you take a look at the other topics here for a second and ask yourself if yours resembles anything like the others the answer will be no.

CWM is outdated for you, maybe because you are using an old firmware.
flash CF-ROOT with your corresponding firmware version, then flash a custom rom. all new roms, often comes with CWM and is updated.

Go to Chainfire's CF root thread. It'll all start from there and you will be able to understand all the procedures better if you start from there.

I checked all the CF root forum, but problem was still as it was on the beginning. I found one helpful thing Clock Recovery is not going well with installed ROM manager.
I just installed original ROM from Samsung, russian region. And root device again. That's it.
I spent two days looking in google, but no one really knows what this causes.
Happy know to have ICS without waiting for stupid mobile operators.
I just installed xrecovery on my X10 mini using a .apk given by a member from this site.....
i'd subscribed to the forum from the xda app on my mobile but somehow i cant find post now...
i want to use Gingerbread ROM on my mobile.. what should i do???? what's the procedure.. i'd like the camera to work the same way its working now, (The main reason why i bought this little ninja)
1. ROOT YOUR PHONE
2.UNLOCK BOOTLOADER from here-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254225
3.FLASH NaA KERNEL from here-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1256739
4.FLASH ROM, mini cm7 by naA-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1068553 OR any other gingerbread rom from development section you can look there
If you want stock like camera i suppose ArcMini would be a better choice, it's still based on MiniCM7/GB2.3.7, but with Sony Ercsson apps.

Yes, although it's very rare to actually hard-brick it.
If your phone is built before 11w29 (take off the back-cover and read the sticker), actually hard-bricking it is unlikely.
The only thing you have to worry about then is the simlock-certificate, if S1Tool says it's unrecognised it's going to be difficult, if it's SEMC simlock certificate, you should be ok.

You can still brick it, but in the vast majority of cases, restoring to stock rom and relocking the bootloader will get you going again, which are things you can do yourself
I can use SIM provided by any network. My phone doesn't have any restriction. So that should prevent certificate issue right?

Yes, you should be ok. just make sure you check if you still have network-access after unlocking the bootloader, by booting up before doing anything else. If you get a signal, you can do whatever you please
After unlocking bootloader if I don't get any signal should I promptly go to back to stock ROM using PC companion? Or is there anything that can be done to prevent signal loss . :screwy: :banghead: Excuse me if this question is too simple to be asked.

A: You unlock your bootloader

If you don't get signal, relock the bootloader
If you do get signal: flash whatever you want.

Rename the zip you downloaded to .ftf, put it in the firmwares subfolder where you installed flashtool, and flash...
(some browsers recognise the .ftf file for what it really is: a zip-file with a different extension, and automatically rename it when they download it, changing the extension again will make it show up in flashtool)
This is awesome. Before trying Gingerbread I thought of going with froyo I installed Remix V 3.2 coz I could do it using xrecovery. My phone went into bootloop :screwy:. I had missed a crucial step in the procedure. I found out what and it worked well.
Now i'm back to stock coz all gingerbread rom ask the phone to be on stock kernel.
Unable to download flashtool due to internet issues. As soon as I get my hand on that, i'll unlock bootloader and flash gingerbread.
I hope i'm on right track.

what is this? and how can i get rid of it once and for all or avoid it ??
i'm Using Omega Rom AOKP Version V5
and it happens on most of the roms i use every once in a while​
I'll be honest, i'm not clued up on kernel panic & upload mode. i read that it is a fatal error on the operating system just wondered if when you were changing roms, you flashed a different kernel too, or if it just that kernel you've been having trouble with (you can see where i'm going here) have you tried using a different kernel?
Had a read around and it seems that flashing a stock firmware and factory reset should sort this out for you and stop it happening again

Yeah, to be honest a clean start is the best solution to many problems, might seem drastic, but if you are well backed up and sorted then it really doesn't take long. You can spend ages trying to work out what causes a problem, or just be a competent flasher and just accept that when problems do accumulate a clean start is usually the quickest....but that's just my opinion

Just a plain old Odin flashable stock Rom, no reason to use a pit at all...last resort that is! Just get latest for your region and flash, you might need to do a factory reset after, so if you can, back up first including internal sd as a factory reset from stock recovery will wipe that also

Hi everybody
I searched a lot and was surprised to find, there exists no tutorial on how to root Xperia GO 6.1.1.B.1.54
I'm creating one now, hoping it would help someone. Please let me know if i'm doing anything wrong by posting this thread. ( I'll delete as soon as possible )
Sorry
ROOTING
We cannot root this build directly , hence we need to flash 6.1.1.B.1.10 Kernel, run the rooting toolkit, and then flash 6.1.1.B.1.54 kernel.
Go to settings > Security > Mark "Unknown sources"
Settings > Developer options > Mark USB debugging
1) Download only this version of Flashtool 0.9.8.0 . Install it and restart your PC.
2) Download 6.1.1.B.1.10 Kernel
Place this kernel in C:/ Drive > flashtool > firmwares > Kernel file
3) Run Flashtool > click on the flashing icon ( left side below "file" option) > Select flashmode >
Setup should be like this

4)Follow the steps, connect your mobile and flash. Note: while connecting to PC, hold volume down key instead of back button.
Once flashing's finished, close flashtool, disconnect your phone and switch it on.
5) Download the rooting toolkit by Bin4ry Link Rooting Toolkit
and Extract it on your PC. Run it and select Normal mode. Follow the on-screen instructions it shows, carefully
6) Once rooting toolkit is done, download and flash the 6.1.1.B.1.54 Kernel

Yes, there is no harm in using flashtool to flash kernels even if you wouldn't want to root it, but could be a little more clear with your question ?
I'm not completely sure what you exactly mean.
Sorry

No, that's not true
You can use flashtool on any Xperia device, rooted/ non rooted/ stock/ unlocked bootloader/ locked bootloader/ phone with custom rom installed // etc
I'm afraid you didn't know that until now
But please feel free to ask anything or PM me
Is it ok
Is it ok to use latest version of flashtoolsorry newbie here. .or it should be really 0.9.8.0?. .coz I have the latest and its a large file 100mb to download again

No probs
I use Flashtool Version 0.9.10.1 and I use Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18(I will download the update v26)
viola. .my android phone ICS.54 is now rooted
I did root it before without using this method, by unchecking all the wipe and exclude boxes, leaving the kernel uncheck. .in doing that so, I just flash the kernel. .
in contrary, this is the fast way of flashing ICS .54. .flashing the kernels ftf file. .
now thats smart. .thanks to you no unchecking boxes for me!!. .just flash it!. .:good::good:
And I just updated my supersu from playstore. .it works!. .

Additional info, I did install flashtool drivers first before flashing it, Its my way logical thinking, maybe its a protocol to install drivers first before flashing anything?..hehe, anyways thanks again

Yup,
You used that earlier ?
And ofcourse, I was surprised man. XDA is known for rooting and development, and no tutorial for Xperia Go
Few people only search on XDA and nothing outside it
I've my signature full of useful threads. it may help people with rooting
Oh EDIT : No that's not my tutorial, I don't have any info about it, i thought you linked my tutorial on the forum
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/97327
Tested
it works
Sent from my ST27i using xda premium
Thanks for the kernel files!
There is already a tutorial

Nabeel, i know that u wanted to do a favor, but there is already a tutorial for rooting here in xda, this is the link to the tutorial
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36741604&postcount=2
and also i think this is not the proper section for a tutorial since this isn't developing..

Omg, sorry :fingers-crossed:
And yes, I checked that link earlier, but it doesn't have a tutorial / kernel files for xperia go
And moreover , I observed ( before posting this thread) that similar rooting threads of xperia sola and xperia p existed in development section, that's why i thought it would be better if i put it here.. ( Easily accessible for Go users as well )
But I know it's wrong ,
Can you help me further by letting me know which moderator I should contact to, to get this thread placed in right section
Thanks
EDIT : or if it's not that bad case let's leave it here ? what say ?

well its not a problem for me at all lol but i guess you should contact any of the moderators and ask them if this should be moved or not, this is the list of moderators u can ask to
Diamondback, _Arjen_, eagleeyetom, iridaki, krook6023, TeeJay3800, YZ, kangi26, Andy, bigjoe2675, il Duce, ApriliaM3
anyways thanks for the good intentions but try to post on the right section from now on?
edit: oh and regarding the tutorial, yes i know that there are not kernel files, but thats because its a general thread for P, U, Sola and go so thats why, but it explains what u must do in order to get root when you are in a newer version than .10 fw
Thank u for the thread, it helping me so much

Yes, without any problem

edit: i flashed it, but still show ICS 6.1.1.B.1.0 in the options... is that ok?
Bootloop? can't mount /data or /system or...? something doesn't work? you don't know what to do? don't understand this **** anymore about reflashing? bricked? this is a working solution

I really dunno what should take hours in this guide which is the same as yours http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1552792
Flashing s5830i with Odin v1.85
1.Turn off the phone and put it in Download mode by pressing Power+Volume Up+volume down.
2.Open Odin v1.84.Run as Administrator!.
3.Put the files in Odin and don't touch the settings
4.If it's a one-file firmware put it in PDA section.
If it's multiple put the files in the correct section.
5.Click start and don't touch the phone!Don't turn off computer and don't unplug the phone!It will reboot automatically and the first boot will take some time,so don't panic!
If you have "bricked" your s5830i a.k.a stuck at samsung logo just download Odin and flash PDA.tar form the link.
http://www.4shared.com/file/Ls2CAsHv/PDA.html
Everything you're doing is up to you!I'm not responsible if you don't read!There's a binary counter on s5830i so be careful with flashing!

I was developing a ROM for an older phone I had, and i bricked it because it got really hot while doing task29.
How can it take year to unbrick a phone, when you clearly said it takes 5 minutes, are you really that retarded?
And, Why Do You Type Like This, no no no , get the **** outta here ******.
Im replying to you because you are the biggest piece of ****, and I didn't have my odin pack, that's why I came here, meanwhile you find this useless and you still posting ****.
I don't see this thread going anywhere useful.. Closed
