I need to get my phone back to normal ASAP! - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Ive unlocked the bootloader, rooted my phone and put a custom rom on it.
It needs to go back to the shop as my wife does not want it.
Its got a 28 day money back guarantee and today is the 28th day, so I need to do it ASAP.
I don't need to relock/re root it really, I just need to get a stock ROM on it so it looks normal.
The girl at the shop will only turn it on to check its working, but i fear if she sees the custom boot screen she might think, 'hey this is different to all the others ive seen'.

Ideally I would like to put the original Tesco ROM back onto it
Hmmm thats got me thinking. When Jinx unlocked my bootloader etc, he saved some files on my computer incase i needed a back up.
These are the files I have:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any idea how to get them onto my phone?

Im not sure what you're on about fella. Could you elaborate?
I would prefer to use this backup I have rather than use Wotanserver to put a generic rom on it

This is a nandroid backup made with clockworkmod that means if you flash it back your phone will be in a non-stock rooted state.You can restore it and then check your phone status.If you know how it was rooted, unroot your phone with the same method after you flash this image.

The above files are a backup of the old bootloader not the ROM itself. Does anyone have a Tesco ROM by any chance?

Well thats what Jinx told me and hes the one that did the procedure.
Ive asked him to look at this thread just to double check.

Tesco rom has no Tesco splash screen only Tesco app and Tesco settings for Internet mms.
Flash. 42 or 58 with wotanserver and then se update service might flash a Tesco rom for ya, as your product code probably still on Tesco UK.

This is actually my second one anyway! The first one I broke whilst trying to unlock the bootloader
I tried to recreate what i did but this one just wont break!
So I'm trying to make it look as normal as possible.
I've been looking on Team Da Vinci and they mention the Tesco ROM on their website:
http://davinciteam.co.uk/phone_details_SK17i_4.0.A.2.377_0001,0002,0003,0004.html
But they want £8.75 for the pleasure. The website also doesn't look like it's been updated in a while. I don't wanna give them my money and then find out it won't work. I've used Da Vinci before and it was a pleasant experience, but it was about five years ago.

They are not the files I left.
The files I left are user\SeTool\Backup\%IMEI%\
And in the format %IMEI%%date%.fakesign
And %IMEI%%date%.backup
They are typically 2-4kb in size
I do not know where you got those files from
EDIT...
I may have some credits you can have for them let me see if I can find the ID and password
But not promising

If you wanna flash these files back then with root explorer or astro explorer navigate to /mnt/sdcard.If you see a folder named clockworkmod then go to clockworkmod/backup and make a folder there.Put files inside.Restart in clockworkmod, choose backup and restore, restore and flash the specific backup.If there isn't a folder named clockworkmod then you have to install it first (you must be rooted) and then do the above.

Phone has been taken back to shop now. Refunded all ok
She didnt even look at the phone lol!
Better to be safe than sorry i guess
I used Wotanserver in the end to flash a stock .42 image and left it at that.

Simpuls!
Tesco are a good bunch.
unfortunately they damaged the sim contact on mine when bundling with there Tesco sim before sealing box.
I have to use blue tac to keep pressure and contact on my 3 sim to get service.
Looking forward to ice cream tho face unlock should be fun and hopefully bit quicker.
Skype brill on mini pro love it!
