Today i tried to install hybrom v16 in my wt19i or sony ericsson live with walkman,
first i rooted my phone and then i unlocked the bootloader with official method, then i installed custom boof's kernel from here
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440161
then i tried the exact steps at the hybrom thread but now i am stuck at the b logo and boot does not proceeds, now i dont know what to do please help me
If u can access recovery, reflash zip (or restore any backup if created)
If you can't flash ftf via flashtool. (Or try PCC on stock kernel)
I dont have any backup
and for flashing do i have to use .58 or other firmware?
since the bootloader is unlocked i cant recieve FOTA
I flashed the phone with firmware .58
but now i need to ask that it says to update to .62 via OTA but my bootloader is unlocked so what shall i do now to have .62 fw or is it ok to have .58??
dats a big risk brov... but cant say cos some says it works using .58 rooted firmware den upgrade to .62 using FOTA... but i advice yhu download tha ftf file for .62 firmware den flash....
.62 ftf:- https://rapidshare.com/files/2345646268/SK17i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1251-0103_.ftf
Keyboard is not in qwerty... do dis to have qwerty keyboard:-

Another alternate solution for u.ist relock ur BL using flashtool by relock xperia.tft(i cant give u a link coz i m posting reply using my mini.just google it or seaech in xda forums).then update via PC companio or SEUS to .62 firmware.tell me if this happened to solve ur problem.GOOD LUCK BRO.
Relocking bootloader is not needed to stock ROM.
Also, you can use WotanServer to install stock ROM and kernel back.
thankss bro about 2 days i work very hard to solved this problem maybe u cant help me step by step thank for quick respond from u....
---------- Post added at 07:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 PM ----------
i try it this afternoon i lock my bootlooder and i use update service to update but update service say my xperia have a new update ......
If you install newest firmware, 4.0.2.A.0.62(.69 in German), with Flashtool or WotanServer, then you can keep bootloader unlocked, incase you want to install custom ROM/Kernel some other time.
If you want to make OTA(Over the Air) update, then lock your bootloader, else you will brick your phone, that can be fixed, but better don't.
I can't understand, what do you want to do exactly, else I could write guide for you.

Greetings all, I wanted to root my Xperia Neo whose bootloader was unlocked. I flashed it with .42 firmware using flashtool and then rooted it with DoomLord toolkit, uninstalled all bloatwares using titnium backup and then relocked my bootloader. At the end I tried update to .62 over OTA but it fails Update center downloads the firmware properly but when it fails to install on my Neo. What should I do? please help
Thanks in advance..

just download a .62 ftf and flash it.. dont bother about the OTA..
nicks25:
Flash version .42
Root via Doomlord's method
KEEP THE PHONE SW UNTOUCHED!
Make OTA update to version .62
Now you can remove bloatware.

and after that unlock your BL and root it by flashing superuser.zip trough CWM.
@CZMagic thanks buddy, it worked. and before I read my answers here on this forum, I had already done the process said by u.
The mistake I was doing was that I altered .42 firmware by removing bloatwares first and then I was doing OTA update for .62 firmware.
that's wrong way.
So if somebody facing the same problem, kindly do the following,
1> flash .42 firmware ( latest flashtool version might not read this firmware, so I used some old version v6.x.x )
2>Then do Rooting by DooMLord method
3>Re-lock the bootloader
4>update firmware to .62 over the OTA
5>install titanium backup from market which is free or get root explorer from 4shared freely
6> Uninstall the bloatware, All done!
P.S: Hit the thanks button

flashing .62 FW with flashtool loses the root access duh, but OTA doesn't. That's why OTA is recommended..
Hello, i´ve had unlocked my bootloader (LWW), and now, i relocked it by SE Bootloader Unlocking v1.6, but now, the cel isn´t updated on pc companion, ota or seus... what´s happening? can someone help me?
Obs: when i type on my phone Dial *#*#7378423#*#* . Then go to -> "Service Info" -> "Configuration". say this:

Are you sure it is available for Brasil?
Otherwise flash it with flashtool (voids warranty, but sony shouldn't notice)
if you have cwm installed with locked bootloader, it really wont update
Hi all, thanks and sorry if I am too noob. I am looking for solution for 2 hours and I cant find, maybe anyone can help me
I have Sola MT27i and I was trying to update to ICS and root my Xperia Sola for hours. I updated with Sony Companion and then I found the thread for root with Flashtool mode (flash to 6.1.1.B.1.10 with Flashtool, root using Bin4ry's method, then flash to 6.1.1.B.1.54), then I instaled CWM and I was trying now install a rom. It seems easy, and I did it last summer in my Geeksphone, but after various errors installing roms copied in externalSD as "installation aborted. Status: 7" I did the step 4 of this tutorial (enter in mounts and format system)and my Sola now only show SONY!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1960590
"IF COMING FROM SOME OTHER ROM, make factory wipe then go into mounts/storage and format system (not needed if updating AOKP)"
I have tried all I find and I cant restore. I cant enter in CWM, I am flashing with MT27i_relock_bootloader.ftf and Flashtool and phone only show SONY after flash...
Please help
Ty for all
Sorry my bad english

Dude ! The ftf's in the first link are only the kernel. You just installed a CM9 ROM over a stock kernel, which would explain why it had bootloop ( in your case stuck at Sony ).
Did you flash the CWM in the ROM ( the boot.img in the zip ) or one of the others on the forum? Because those are built on Stock kernel, and this uses CM9 kernel, causing bootloops ( This is just me trying to zero in on the issue )
Solution:
Since that 1st thread had only kernel, the files were ~10Mb. The actual ftf is much larger, around 300 Mb or so, as it contains all files.
Flash one of the other 2 links' ftf's via flashtool and you should be fine.

Good morning everybody
As in the title.... I'm newbie with Sony development... My friend has SE Xperia mini PRO as a secondary device
He wants to update it to ICS..... I checked the OTA updates and unfortunately it says "you have the latest version"... Is the GB the latest really???? Surely no
So I tried to search the XDA and found the Middle East update with flashtool
I'm afraid about the bootloader issue..... Do I have to unlock it when I use flashtool??
I read everywhere that I must unlock it if I want to flash custom ROMs and kernels..... But this ROM is stock ICS with a TFT file "flashtool flashable"
This is a link for the ROM's thread
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1810037
So my question is... Do I have to unlock the bootloader before flashing this??
Notice: the device runs on factory functions ( Stock 2.3.4 GB.. not rooted or modified yet )
Please help
Nope no need to unlock bootloader to use flashtool.
Just connect it in flashmode (turn off, vol down + connect) and choose flashmode in flashtool
Regards
-N
no need to unlock bl buddy! just flash using flashtool. remember to install adb for your phone!
Nope
You only need to unlock your bootloader if you're gonna install a custom kernel. So, no need to do so. You can flash it to ICS via Flashtool with an FTF file.
