Hi there. I am advised to with this rom and nAa 11 (kernel). I see it's good advice since there is a lot of people enjoying this rom. However today when i checked rom installation requirements i noticed somethig.
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415026
They say that phone need to have:
Requirements:
Latest 2.1.1.A.0.6/2.1.1.C.0.0 SE firmware / Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
But my phone is:
firmware 2.0.A.0.504 and baseband is
M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-534040056
Am i going to get in to trouble if i upload this rom anyway?
Thanks in advance
1. try updating with flash tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=986692 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826455
a good guide for flashtool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343
2. alternately download pc companion: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...ject/pccompanion/xperiax10minipro?cc=ph&lc=en
and update you phone software.
3. use seus but i cant find the link to download.
because if you dont it wont work and as they always say "I wont be held responsible if you brick you phone"
You have to use the correct firmware and baseband. Otherwise will have problems.
I flash a few roms with the wrong baseband and had a lots of problems of stability.
Now I have MiniCM7-2.1.9, with nAa-11 kernel and works perfect.
Ok thanks. I'll try to find that firmware version and flash it before i continue with kernel and rom. Do you have any link to where i could find these firmware versions?

Download the FlashTool and the latest X10a firmware (2.1.A.0.435), flash it with the FlashTool, done

To all the developers and members of XDA,
I bought an X10mini and found out that the firmware version is 2.1.1.A.0.16 , can i flash it to MiniCM6 2.2 ROM ? the baseband is M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015 but the firmware is not 2.1.1.A.0.6..
I tried to to reinstall the ROM using PC companion and the version that i get is still 0.16 and not 0.6 .
I wonder if anyone here have the version same as mine and can i flash it to custom ROM ? i search throughout the treads and did not found any 2.1.1.A.0.16 available, is this the latest version or because the version is differ because of countries?
Any helps will be well-appreciated, thanks !
This is because you have the 2011 X10 Mini. Everything should work normally.
You have a previous FW, if you want to flash without fear, flash to the new FW and them flash it to MiniCM6 2.2 ROM.
You can use WotanClient, sign in the site of the program, it is free, and very easy flash with this program, and you can downgrade or upgrade your phone.
ok, Thank you for the information !
the important things are baseband and kernel, because when you upgrade to 2.2 or 2.3 the stock firmware will be replaced.
but before flashing with any rom kindly make a backup
i was trying to installe android 2.3.5 but i found its post the i cant unless i have
Only 2.1.1.A.0.6 or 2.1.1.C.0.0 SE firmware is that the orignal Rom the device came with ?
If you go into 'settings' then 'about phone' you will see the phones baseband version. If it ends in 15 it is most likely one of the two firmwares you mention. If you try to install a rom dependant on these firmwares and you don't have it you will temporarily brick your phone. (Requiring the use of the Sony Ericcson Update Service to hopefully restore the phone to working order).
It is possible your phone has the firmware already installed but you need to check! Some network providers have been very slow at releasing them. If you manage to find the firmware on the web (make sure it is the correct language and layout for your locale - AND the correct phone) then you need to use a flashing utility to install it, I use 'flashtool' as it can root the phone and install xrecovery, but you must be sure you read the documentation and follow the proceedure.
Once you have xrecovery and the phone is rooted the magic can begin..
Be careful. Its very easy to render your phone bricked (as in the phone is as useful as a brick!). No one here can take responsibility for the advice given or your actions.

my phone android version 2.2.1
baseband version M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
KERNAL VERSION 2.6.29 [email protected]#1
MOD VERSION FROYO MINICM/CMV6 HYBRID BY SLADE87 AND OWAIN 94
BUILD NUMBER V5.01 FINAL RELEASE
SO CAN I INSTALL SONYBREAD WHICH requires 2.1.1.A.0.6 or 2.1.1.C.0.0 SE firmware
so do i have it????
Not anymore, but if you do Factory reset, yes you have
no it will not cuz the factory ROM is not exsist
In my understanding the firmware doesn't change when you install a custom rom and (to me) they are two different entities. So yes, in my view you should be able to flash sonybread but I haven't used it myself but I have other gingerbread ports without a problem
Once your on the correct baseband you can change between roms without having to flash via the pc/flashtool.
If you get into bootloops then you can try restoring an xrecovery/cwm recovery or failing that reflashing with seus/flashtool.

I'm trying to up my firmware to GingerDX (follow guide of stelios97), but he wrote

I dont know how to know exactly which my firmware is. In "about phone" only write "Firmware version 2.1-update 1"
I searched in 4rum and read that if my baseband version ends in 15, my firmware is one of these two firmwares. But my baseband version ends in 06, does it mean my firmware is not 2.1.1.A.0.6 or 2.1.1.C.0.0? So how can I know exactly what is it?
These my phone's info:
Model number: E10i
Firmware version: 2.1-update 1
Baseband version: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006
Kernel version: 2.6.29 [email protected]#1
Build number: 2.0.A.0.504

One more question:
How can I know my Kernel is nAa 08 Kernel or what Kernel (I dont know what 2.6.29 [email protected]#1 means)? In stelios97's guide wrote that I have to flash nAa 08 Kernel.

the firmware is your build number, so you need to update it to proceed. The baseband is correct (ends in 06). If you are in stock rom, your kernel is stock too (to flash a new kernel there are other steps to do before). I hope this get useful for you, and as an advice, read a lot about android!

Thx for replying
But my build number is 2.0.A.0.504, so my current firmware is 2.0 or 2.1?
And now If I want to update to 2.1.1.A.0.6 by SE update service, I have to relock Bootloader right? (I just Root, xRecovery and unlock Bootloader yesterday). But I read in [Guide] Bootloader and kernel guide | X8 | W8 | X10 mini | X10 mini pro of SpyderX that
If you relock your bootloader while using a custom kernel your phone will be bricked!

So what I have to do to relock Bootloader safely? Flash another Kernel (like nAa 08 Kernel) before relock Bootloader?

You read it in a wrong way xD
Well, to relock your bootloader again, your kernel MUST be in stock, otherwise it will be bricked (it says so, I don't even mind to try it)...
To conclude, if you want to relock your bootloader again after having your stock kernel replaced with another kernel, use flashtool to replace your current kernel to the stock one, or just reflash it using SEUS to make sure. After that, you can relock your bootloader again
Hope that helps

your current firmware is 2.1. If you want to start all over again, you can simply go to the support zone in sony ericsson pc companion, in the update firmware section and "repair" (loosing all your data), and probably you will get the latest update available for our minis. And other option is mentioned by StardustGeass
I didnt use PC Companion (feared be bricked cause I unlocked BL already), I used flashtool to up my firmware to 2.1.1.A.0.6 successfully. In fact that I palpitated abit when flashing, but finally it was ok, my mini now is 2.1.1.A.0.6, all Root, xRecovery are removed and Bootloader is relocked now.
Now I have to start again to up FW to 2.3.7: root, xRecovery, unlock BL again, then flash nAa 08 Kernel be4 intall GingerDX from SD card
Thx for helping
This is my first post: Hi to everyone.
My mini is exactly the same than yuduy, except that mine is E10a. I have not modified anything yet, but I want to use the stelios97 Gingerbread ROM. Here in Mexico, according to PC Companion I am completely updated. So the questions are:
1.- What is the best way to update the firmware to meet the requiered buit number?
2.- How do I know if the phone will continue to work in the Mexican phone company TELCEL if I use a new ROM etc?
Thank you
