Hello
I installed MIUI and by mistake activated touch calibration and that messet up my touch totally, its all unresponsive now, fastboot new kernel and a clean install does not help at all.
What can be done ? cant unlock phone, (possible via ADB?) and my thought is to start some calibration-software via adb + am.
Any suggestions? Experia Active. all unresponsive touch screen, not even the back / home / menu buttons work..
Please help!
First of all this isnt a Q&A section.
Second of all, reinstall MIUI, after you have cleared data.
First - Sorry, I realized the q&a afterwards.
second - does not work, reinstalled cm7 cm9 and stock and touch is still unresponsive.
edit: to be extra clear, The phone starts all fine, but I cannot unlock PIN nor unlock lockscreen because the touch is not responding.
Every Rom has a specific Kerbel that needs to be installed for it to work properly. If I were you, if flashing and wiping didnt work, id restore a stock ftf using flashtool.

Try to flash with the recommended kernel from the rom you choose. Maybe it's a problem from your hardware. I face that kind of situation when using Xperia Mini.
Sent from my SK17i using xda premium
Get back to stock firmware via full .ftf file.
Man i just noticed you installed the miui for live with walkman only from lasan that is a big no no.
If you want miui install the one from expeacer here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1578109 it should work well.
And remember to read the first post and to make sure the rom is compatible with your device.
I managed to fix the problem, I tried the tft stock, but didnt work either, but then I tried tft again the usb-cable got unplugged and boot img got corrupted, after tft again it worked!
Yes, I feel a bit noob installing the wrong rom...
Thanks for the help! keep up the good work!!

Hi everyone
a few days ago i have unlocked the bootloader on my xperia p following the official sony instructions.
After that i downloaded and flashed the sliding xp v5 kernel
Everything worked perfect and i wanted to install a custom rom, and i thought that the vision rom would be perfect.
I installed the vision rom v2 in cwm recovery and everything seemed perfect, i like the rom and everything is good but i have a few problems :-/
First i had the problem that sometimes when the screen locks and turns off,when i press the unlock button the screen wont turn on,i can hear that the phone works when i try to take a ss i hear the soind,but the screen wont turn on until i hard restart the phone :-/
The second problem is that the phone just restarts itself randomly sometimes :-/
And the last thin is that when i go in the dialer to call someone it happebs alot of times that the phone lags a lot there and it happens often that when someobe is calling me or when i call someone that it lags and the phone freezes :-/
Can someone tell me why is this happening,because of the kernel or the rom?
and what should i do to fix it,if possible i would like to keep all the settings which i made because i allready personalized it much....
Thanks to everyone in advance

First that came in my mind is that this kernel and the rom are not for eachother - so try to flash munjeni's kernel and the rom again and try it.
Before that flash stock rom via flash tool to make clean install.

Thanks for your quick reply,right now the internet at my home isn't working so i will have to wait before i try it.
I have never used flashtool before so i want to ask you if anything from my phone will be deleted like apps,contacts or something else?
I have also made a backup using cwm before i installed this rom,would it be ok if i just restore the backup,then flash the new kerbel and after that the vision rom again?

First of all the flash stock rom you need to put the ftf file in Flashtool/firmwares
Then connect the device in flashmode and flash rom (device switched off and to enter flashmode just do vol- and put usb in).
When flashing official stock rom as much as i know you will lose data, and its better to have clean install.
If you flash munjeni's kernel and the rom you want, and if you restore the back up that will flash the old boot.image too, i mean the old kernel and that is not wanted.

Try this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1423562
There were quite a few posts about this problem in the general forum. If none work, then just keep on flashing .62 firmware around 25-30 times.
If that doesn't work, then you will have to take it to sony for a screen replacement. Even I had flashed gingerzruzt for lww on my st15i and had the same problem. I got a free screen replacement by relocking my bootloader and flashing the stock rom. Good luck and be sure to try all the methods.
but how can i go to cwm if i dont have ??? i cant tick the usb debuuging because of not working touch screen also i cant root

Is your bootloader unlocked? If yes then flash a kernel which has CWM embedded in it. As for the usb debugging, you will have to find some way to get the rom to your sd card.

Then if your phone is within the warranty period, flash .587 ics stock firmware and take it to Sony as soon as possible. They replaced my touch screen entirely for free. If your warranty is over, then I suggest that you unlock your bootloader and flash a kernel that has cwm so that you can at least try out some of the fixes mentioned above or in the general forum.
Don't worry. Follow this from step 8 - http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
Make sure that you android-sdk installed with platform-tools and google usb drivers. You should be good to go!
Have you Tried flashing STOCK KERNEL
flash stock kernel n rom with flashtool.. if it is not working it is a hardware problem :S
I had a working xperia mini pro running cm9, But after awhile I noticed the buttons' and screen's backlights are blinking. I also tried to slide the keyboard and the whole thing turns into a blinking frenzy. I went on xda to find help and came across this thread and decided to try it out. When I flashed the zip from cwm not only the backlight issue wasn't fixed, but my screen went totally blank. Sometimes the top-left LED will flash a purple color and the back/menu button will lit up but not the screen.
I tried flashing a stock rom hoping it would bring back my screen but it didn't work. Now I'm stuck with a black screened unrooted stock gingerbread.
I have my bootloader unlocked, tried custom kernel, stock kernel from other models, anything I could with flashtool and nothing's working. Can't root my phone using this pseudo-kernel method and nobody in xda had the same problem as mine.
If anyone could at least tell me what I did wrong or even help me work around it, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks guys.

It seems to be a hardware problem. Anyway, try to flash a compatible kernel via fastboot and then flash a rooted stock ROM via CWM. I'm not sure where to find the pre-rooted stock ROM cause I have a st15i (Mini) but there are similar devices so it's almost certain that there is one for Mini Pro too. If it doesn't work, take it to service.

I have the pre rooted stock gingerbread for mini pro but Im not sure exactly how to flash it in cwm if I can't even see the screen. Haha. Thanks very much for the response, i'll try using my friend's phone as a screen mirror and see if it works.

Please tell me the Android version of your Xperia Mini (GB - ICS - JB - CM9 - CM10 - CM10.1) so I can give you the right links. I'll be near my PC for about 3 hours. Then, I will be on vacations for the next 3 days.
I installed ultimate hd rom 2.0.2 on st15i, everything went well but i choosed locked bootloader not unlocked. Now my touch screen and touch keys are dead. I have tried everything but nothing worked. If someone has a solution, please share it with me. Thanks in advance
Are you sure you choosed the correct device in aroma?
There are threads in general section on how to fix touch screen issues.
If it didn't fix the problem, I'm sorry you will have to send it to the repair center.
Good luck.

Yes, my phone was working propery, ive installed many roms on it. Itried to install ultimate hd 2.0.2 and when it booted the touch was not working. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2104484 collected metods
finally fixed!
Hello i just want to say that i fixed my phone after 4 day of trouble. I used this metod:
Fix 4: By Flashing Hybrom_v10: (Credits: javad01; here)
1. Flash your device's stock gingerbread rom (4.0.2.A.0.62) with flashtool
2. Flash a custom kernel with cwm you like (e.g. rage kernel)
3. Flash Hybrom v10 for mini pro
4. Boot the rom
5. If it's not booting and having a bootloop pull battery
6. Flash stock rom again with flashtool
When i first tried it it didn't work,but i kept trying and it finally worked!
Close this thread
if all the way still doesn't work, bring your device to service center. if your guarantee void, they will charge.
Hi,
I have successfully rooted my Xperia U phone (with ICS 4.0.1), and also installed the CWM.
I have downloaded the experience 2.1.zip rom file and placed the same in internal memory also.
Now when I restart my phone to be able to boot in recovery mode, I am not able to do so.
As soon as press power button, multi-coloured illumination doesn't take place in LED bar. As soons as Sony logo appears, I start pressing the 'Volume Down' button repeatedly, but nothing happens. It simply goes to Xperia logo animation screen and boots the phone with older ROM only.
Am I missing something. Please help. I want to install custom ROM to upgrade to JB, but I am not able to do so as I am not able to boot my phone in Recovery mode, which is required to flash the current ROM and installing new ROM on top of it (as per m knowledge).
Please Help. Urgent.
If video can be uploaded for the solution, i would highly appreciate the work and effort becoz I got frustrated now after following so many procedures given on internet to root / install CWM / boot in recovery. I am done with first two things: Rooting and Installing CWM. I struggling hard to reboot my phone in CWM mode
Thanks in advance.

those that have locked bootloader after the flash of a rom lose the recovery,you have to reinstall

You better go unlock your bootloader. Trust me, it's better because custom kernels have CWM. But if you want to install CWM your LB phone, it can be done too, by using RecoverX on Windows. Just post your questions here again if you have more problems

2. All settings are related to ICS stock only
Only look and feel is changed as like in xperia Z.
