Weird bug or not? - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi if anyone has a solution to my question please dont hesitate to reply, my problem is that I tried to install a custom rom on a friends mimmi through xrecovery but the recovery keeps saying ''bad error rom not installed'' I have also succesfully unlocked bootloader and installed nAa 11 and tried to flash the rom but with no luck same error pops up i'm certain its not just a download error from the roms cause I use the same roms on my phone perfectly. I really wana get a custom rom on my friend's phone please any1 what could it be a bug or not? I can't flash anything not even a hotfix.

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.

Try to use your MicroSD on friend's phone to flash the rom.

Thank you , and sorry if there is a thread.
First get the rom on your SD card, flash baseband.52 and install the rom normally with recovery, nothing special is requires for flashing the kernal it is done automaticly. If you need help on how to flash use my guide from my sig

So that kernel is already inside and i need just to flash it using baseband .52 ?
You flash the baseband with the flashtool and the rom with recovery. The kernal is included yes. Read through my guide, it explains all about how to flash roms and basebands.

I really don't have a clue if that would work or not cos J's kernal is for 2.3 and wolfbreaks rom is 2.2. You could always just try it out to see if it works just make sure you back up up wit recovery first and if worst comes to worst flash with the flash tool and redo your set up.

[Q]Please help me!

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?

You don't using nAa kernel right? To use Mini-cm7 2.2.0 you must use naa kernel
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
Like Elwino2.3 said you need to flash the nAa kernel using flashtool.
But before that you need to unlock your bootloader than flash the kernel.
Please re-read the thread carefully where you got the MiniCm7-2.2.0 ROM.
All necessary details are provided.
Don't worry it also happened to me. I got too confident coz i had flashed many other ROM's and so i just flashed the ROM without reading the instruction.
You either use Sony Ericsson Update Service to reset your phone back to the stock sony ericsson rom or you can try to directly flash the kernel.
As for myself i used the Update Service coz i thought that it was more safe.

Need help with change rom.

Hello, i need some help.
The kernel i have been trying to use is: X10_4.1X_CMX10_bootmanager_v13 + v_14 and alot more, but i can't come in to the recovery after changing kernel. but with the "Stock" kernel in flashtool i can get into recovery. cwm and the other, but then i can't install the rom i want, i need to install the kernel above before i can install the rom. Sry for my bad english, but i hope u understand.
bump since i edited.
Comeone guys, someone know why i cant get into cwm after changing kernel
The problem is you are trying to install kernels that is not supported by your ROM.
Have you unlocked your bootloader? Check it using S1Tool
I had the same problem with that kernel I couldn't get into recovery. Which rom are you trying to install JB? Or ICS? Try armin kernel for ics or jb and see that's what I used

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
