Fastboot in my pc is not working! can i get ICS .562 + Root + CWM with the help of adb and flashtool? My Neo (not v) is running .42, kernel-baseband .283! BL unlocked!
Solved- Flashed .562 of neo v then rooted from doomlord ics rooting method then cwm via old gb method and then camera fix for neo 4.1!
I have got as far as rooting, I need to get CWM on and then apply the camera fix. Can you advise?

Hi
If you follow the forum you will find some posts of me trying to have last fw .62 rooted with CWM working. Even if some users can do it by OTA, other by other process I never have total success but like most of you…I simple wont to have last fw .62 working, rooted and with CWM also working. The best I get was .62fw rooted but without CWM working and if install fw.62 by the traditional way I just get SE logo and have to flash it again.
After several times I finally have it work…
The only thing I have so far is that I believe I flash what I think is last baseband and after I flash it my computer says I have a new fw to install!!
This process is using pieces of ideas from others so I just get a way of put all together and have it working for me and decide to share with you.
Like always you can try it at your own responsibility.
Fist you should have .42 fw installed.
Root it.
Install CWM XPERIA from market (not the traditional way)
Download this and put it on your SD card: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sea...tloaderlock/generic/generic620.2.zip/download
Reboot NEO on CWM and install the file.
Reboot your phone and install the previous downloaded file.
At this time you have fw .62 without kernel.
Reboot your phone again and again go to the icon of CWM and reinstall again CWM.
Put you phone off again and flash just the .62 kernel. You can use .62 complete fw and choose only to install kernel.
At this point you should have .62 fw with .62 kernel.
On my case I install CWM again just in case.
If you reboot and press down volume you will have access to CWM.
I flash what I read that was last baseband using this file: http://www.mediafire.com/?tfd8bdbdrcd4bpq (after that my computer advice me to update phone…don´t know way)
For those that consider my guide too nooby…guys was the only way I found…sorry.
For those that somehow contribute with links to have it compiled I thank them.

What kernel you using has to be custom not stock
Sent from my LT15i using XDA
I tried your case many time...try just wipe data/factory reset
Find me at Gtalk
Sent from my fast Neo V
Sorry for my bad English...
Just download compatible night elf or other kernel. Flash it in fastboot and reboot.
There is nothing wrong with ROM no need to keep wiping it.
I'm not sure which kernel my neo is having as i have tried various things in last one month. How do i find it out (Sorry i'm a beginner here)

Generally it is in about phone in settings but as you are not able to load up any ROM i suggest just flash one to make sure you are on right kernel.

hi ankurvij,
by which method you root your neo v if it is DoomLoRD's toolkit then it roots your phone with locked bootloader
to my knowledge Team Xperia SE.TWEAKED V1 is for unlocked bootloader only correct me if i'm wrong
you won't install custom ROM but can install Stock ROM
i've tried the same thing after rooting DoomLoRD's toolkit same error as yours
now on stock firmware from emannxperia with some tweaks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544273
I had similar problems when I put a rom with an inappropriate kernel. But for this you must have the bootloader open
Yes, i used DoomLoRD's toolkit .. i will give a try to ICS Now
Thanks for ur reply..

I have my xperia live with walkman's bootloader unlocked the normal sony way. I am on 0.62 firmware. What now?
I am basically looking for rooting and CWM installations...but the ways i find for installation of CWM require root and the methods for rooting require CWM.
Any help?
P.S. I am open for long methods...noob with the phone, not with technology
Try to use Doomlord's Root.

Well you need a kernel with pre-rooting and CWM. For that i recommend Rage kernel v2.8 you can even use x kernel. All you need is an unlocked bootloader.
When ever i flash back to stock .62 on my Mini i immediately flash Rage kernel and everything is up ready to be modded.
Hope this helps.

Hello All,
I have SE Stock ICS 4.0.4 ... I want to install CWM Recovery ... Please guide ???
Regards
Anyone CWM for Stock 4.0.4 ???
Anyone ??? Jjdoctor ???
Tried installing Xperia CWM Auto-Installer on ST18i
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673489
2) Install CWM Recovery
Again if you have CWM Recovery installed then you dont need to do this step
If not then just download the Application
Now download 'Xperia CWM Auto-installer' by pvyParts to install CWM recovery..
Installed on ST18i ... "ST18i" not supported by this software
Locked or unlocked bootloader?
If locked look here
Boot Loader
My Boot Loader is Unlocked, I unlocked it from SE Website ... but Flashtool can Re-Lock it ... So should i Re-Lock the Boot Loader and go for CWM ???
I don't think flashtools have relocked your bootloader, however it can leave the root on your phone if you upgrade to 4.0.4.
If you follow the guide in the thread that i've linked you can root again and install CWM
I just installed on stock 4.0.4 using the SE Extreme Tweak Installer v1.8 few hours back. worked perfectly.
please do some searching/googling for your basic question... :sigh:
FTR: you can look at my sig

Hi, I really want to be in the safe side here, very much afraid of doing something un-fixable:
I've got the Sola with Ginger Bread (2.3.7) with build number 6.1.1.B.1.54. :::: ¿Is it totally SAFE to flash the CM9 in my situation?
I ask this cause it seems that pretty much everybody in the forums seem to be flashing from the ICS(4.0.4) 6.1.1.B.1.10...
(¿Also: should I flash a recovery (like munjeni's Sony Xperia Sola boot for 6.0.B.3.184 + root + CWM recovery v5.5.0.4 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901134 )
first in order to have a guranteed backup of the Sony original everything??)
Thanks in advance, kind of confused here...

you could always flash back the stock ROM incase of softbricks............. you mentioned that you are using GB butr the build number (6.1.1.B.1.54) is i guess of ICS latest firmware.......... so first confrm which version are you running.,,,,,,,,,,
For FXP you will have to flash ICS first (i guess) and then install the CWM followed by FXP CM9.1..................

Flash munjeni's kernel or just install cwm
Do a nandroid backup from cwm( yes it backups everything)
And then flash. 54 fw (ics) (latest changelog of fxp 202 requires u to have this fw)
Bt u r already having this
And dun worry about soft bricks they are easily recoverable... anyone here can help u if u get one

Thanks, using Mac here, but I'm glad to find out that Sony FINALLY provided an interface for Mac users ("Sony Bridge for Mac"), so I did the regular upgrade to ICS w/.54.
Gonna go ahead and flash munjeni's kernel + CWM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922029 )
(¿wouldn't be a good idea that someone asked munjeni to change the name of the thread to "etc 6.1.1.B.1.10 (and .54) + etc"?? It took me a while to find it, using both google and the forum's search, as I was always dismissing it thinking the .10 build wouldn't work for the .54...
I mean, in the interest of future knoobs like me. I tried to post, but it's locked to non-developers)
