I unlocked my bootloader, now it starts up with an android robot holding scythe, but i cant make calls or sms, a yellow traingle appears on the left top angle ( selected network unavailable) . So i think the problem is i didnt unlock my sim ( with setool2 or anything) . So I am asking can relocking the bootloader fix this problem?
Which doomkernel did u flash and which rom u using pal?

Additional info : i tried to go back to stock se 2.3.3 with seus , but the network is unavailable. when i try to root it, surprisingly, i can acess xrecovery =.=. And If relocking can solve this problem, i would need to go back to stock rom 2.3.3?, and is it ok to click restore on s1tool? ( I gone back to stocked rom , but the kernel is still doom kernel )

That's good question that I would like to know as well!

Hi. I have some doubts about this, I wanna try the last rom by nAa, and it ask for a unlock bootloader and nAa Kernel, my quiestion is: After doing that is there any way for getting back to the original kernel, I mean PC companion will work? and restore it like factory?
Thx!
Don't worry, you can flash anytime back to stock kernel, witch is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403808
Thnx, but I meant Mini pro u20...
Btw, if I have a Backup with Minicm7 by paul in cwm with stock kernel, if then I flash Naa kernel, if I restore the backup I had, it comes with the stock kernel??
No. CMW backups the ROM and its data. To revert back to stock kernel you just have to DL a stock kernel file from the site and flash it.
And the bootloader re-lock?
What are the benefits for having an unlocked bootloader, using a rom in stock kernel...
If you're using stock kernel and dont plan on using a custom kernel, there's no benefit.
The whole purpose of unlocking BL is to be able to flash a custom kernel. there are pretty whack custom kernels around which, naturally, are better than stock.
So, what are the benefits of using Custom Kernel?
My x10 mini pro is running paul-xxx's miniCM7pro version 17, and the result I got from S1tool were: SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE (that means I can unlock it right?). My question is can I continue the unlocking process, or do I need to downgrade my phone first to stock firmware?
I'm doing this for my brother so I haven't been much on this sub-forum.
Thanks
I was like you, in the cm7 by paul, I flashed normally with no downgrading....
Just do it...!!

Depends on the kernel you're using. NAa's is the best one out there. Zombie panic is at par with it. Tonnes of features with outstanding speed and stability.
But i guess you're aware of it now
Hi
This weekend my x10 mini pro turned of by itself and when it started up again the touchscreen never worked again.
I tried factory reset, dalvik cache clear, data clear, all of it. Reinstalled my MiniCM7Pro rom. Still no luck.
PLEASE help me if you can...
Thanks
And I just tried to install another ROM, still not working
Going to try original now
edit: (check edit 2)
Ok I cant use SEUS to repair my phone back to the original, since the phone needs to be connected to PC Companion, and I need the touchscreen for that...
What now?
Does anyone have the ROM for me so that I can install using xrecovery?
edit 2:
So looks like stock 2.1 rom works (but doesnt have dual touch)
It seems that the dual touch module/driver doesnt work on my phone anymore, where can I find an alternative touch module/driver for MiniCM7Pro v21?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hey, no I used a stock SE 2.1 ROM I found here on XDA.
Now the phone is working 100%
BUT... I would like to install a custom ROM again, and I found MiniCM7Pro V21 to be the best/most stable. But all of a sudden the screen doesn't respond when touching it when I'm using that ROM (Same for CM6)
I am also facing the same issue....
Haven't found a solution yet though...
I guess we are stuck with the stock rom for now
Hope so somebody would find a solution to this problem...
Try fllashing any other rom.....i also had sme issue...i flashed cyancream still it didnt work,then minicm7pro still no touch response then finally I flashed stornmix and touchscreen was back again.....

Well i decided I'm not going to settle for stock 2.1 ROM, and installed the nAa kernel.
Then reinstalled MiniCM7Pro V21 and it worked.
However wifi did not work.
Now I am running MiniCM7-2.1.9 and everything works so far.
I would still like to revert back to MiniCM7Pro, since it was my absolute favourite ROM!
Minicm7pro does not hve wifi built from sources...so wifi wont work with nAa kernel..

Is there a way for me to include it in the ROM myself?
Eg: just copying the wifi files into the rom before installing?
Copying files wont solve your wifi issue..u can use zombiepanic kernel, or d4 kernel with minicm7pro....i thnk wifi works with these kernels

What do you mean with WIFI fixed? can your phone connect to your AP?
Did u install kernel provided by MiniCMSandwich? If not then you should..
What phone are you using?
My SK17i use MiniCMSandwich RC3 too..and got no problem with Wifi or Mobile Data..
According to me, this ROM works only with its own kernel, correct me if I am wrong.
Which network setting do you have? Does changing location help? Airplane mode?
Do you have correct kernel and ROM installed? What kind of error do you get? No service or what?
Sent from my WT19i using xda premium
Make sure you
- flash the provided Kernel that comes with the ROM
- then full factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik
- flash rom
I had to do it twice, Data didn't work on first try, I guess the Kernel flashing went wrong, but now everything works fine

APNs are not related to making calls at all. Changing these does not help.
May I ask how to flash a custom kernel on the sk17i? I flashed the MiniCMSandwhich ROM but i did it with the stock kernel, so it got stuck at the boot logo... So i need to know how to flash the right kernel to a sk17i.
Also, i think someone (maybe me if i manage to get MiniCM working) should make a tutorial on how to get MiniCM running starting at an unrooted phone updated to the latest stock Sony formware. I thing that that would be helpfull to a lot of people.
Thanks in advance!

Kernel installation is in my tutorial, link in my signature.
Thanks a lot, i saw and read your tutorial before, but i must have missed the kernel part , I think ill do that later today. But for now, there is no way of flashing a new kernel without unlocking the bootloader is there?

Nope, kernel can only be installed with unlocked bootloader.
Hi everyone!
I'm tired using custom roms for their instability and fc's everywhere for over a year I didnt found Rom that works perfect all the time with many apps installed so I just want to my phone work, dont want to flash new system every month again.
I was running stock with deleted apps, Set Cpu (tnx to gregbradley (edit: that was neoxx3m very good advidce, sorry my bad) and z-kernel for about 4 months and I was happy, that was one and only Rom that i've used so long. Yes it wasnt so fast but it was very stable and everything works so nice not even one fc. (kindda wierd couse ive installed z-kerner on my Unlocked BL x10 and now I can't and dont wanna to play and relock)
So i wanna repair my phone and get back to stock, root it, delete all uneeded apps and flash the most stable kernel so will it be failsafe from doom right?
And the question is will my plan work? I know that phone will not be so fast but will everything work and this is all I need or maybe someone has better idea?
Also have some questions about the newest fw for this Doom UB kernel. Where do i get this newest se fw?
Any help will be very appriciated.
Restore the phone back to stock using SEUS. That should do the trick

It will work because when u repair ur phone via PCC u get latest firmware (2.3.3/3.x.x.x.x.x), but my advice is to try relock BL and use zKernel, i did that yesterday and i'm happy again!

I told you that dont wanna play with bootloader no more, maybe for some time i would like to try some kernel or rom (if im not happy for using stock and doom) and will have to unlock again so im patience (tring to) and will not to this for a while.
Anyway strange is that i flash zKernel even if i had unlocked Bootloader and it work fine but when i tried to do this again ( didnt know that this kernel is fo Locked only) it didnt work
Hi everyone,
My first foray into android world... and thanks to xda, managed to flash ICS Rom (official 4.0.4, global) on my Neo, root it, get ClockWorkMod installed, unlocked the bootloader, flash custom kernel (Alliance Kernel with OC up to 1.8 Ghz)... the problem is... my sim card is not recognized (can only make "emergency call")...
I tried the following:
- Relock bootloader using .ftf for Xperia phones... phone won't boot with flashed custom kernel
- Reflash stock ICS baseband only... no luck too...
Another problem: on custom kernel, phone won't properly run... stuck at setup screen (either ends in blank screen, or loop through it)... though strangely... on my very first attempt, it was running OK (can use phone normally aside from the "No sim card / emergency call only" problem)...
Quite badly want the 1.8 Ghz OC from Alliance Kernel... but useless if can't use phone to call...
Any help would be much appreciated... Thanks!
Unlock your phone.
Flash the stock ROM.
Then check weather Sim is working or not.
Hope this will work.

@svprm: no problem in getting sim to work with stock rom again... but I wanted to get the custom kernel with stock rom... any clue?... or custom rom is the answer I'm looking for?
@mpiekp: it's fine for me... I simply relock the bootloader, reflashed stock rom, re-root, and sim card is usable again... just no custom kernel with OC.
If custom rom with OC built-in the answer I'm looking for?... know a good one for that? (I know there are several, so will give it a try)...
Thanks guys!... any further clue to get stock ICS working with Night Elf's Alliance Kernel would be great...
I had this problem one time.
First i upgraded my baseband to latest version.
Then stock one and then Custom rom.
Try it.

Did you meant, "latest baseband --> stock rom --> custom kernel?"... or simply "latest baseband --> stock rom --> custom rom"... and that will get me an overclocked Neo with SIM/radio/GSM properly working?
Latest one is on this thread?... 72?

Your device may have got sim lock certificate. Use S1 tool and click restore button. This will remove that certificate.

Thanks for your reply. I'm able to use the sim card with no problem on stock ICS ROM. Only when I flash custom kernel the device says "No sim card"...
That said, I got me S1Tool and connected my Neo (stock rom, stock kernel) to it. Here's the screenshot...
(malware link removed by admin)
So, should I 'Restore' using S1Tool after I have the OC_enabled custom kernel (thus, "no sim card")?... any risk of hard-bricking my phone here?
Thanks again!
Restore won't brick your phone.

OK. So, I tried unlocking my bootloader again (using fastboot and official unlock code from Sony)... flash custom kernel (Alliance, with overclock up to 1.8 GHz)... and use S1Tool... unfortunately, clicking 'Restore' said, "There's nothing to restore"... or something like that...
Still can't get a custom kernel to work properly... :-(
Now go back to post three and read that whole thread, if restoring the trim area doesn't fix it you will need a boot repair. Bootloader lock and sim lock are separate, you have no issue on stock because that's what your meant to have, but custom kernel/ rom will lock up.
