Have an Xperia X10 with Android 2.1. Wanted to root my phone to upgrade to gingerbread. However i admit i got confused with the plethora of links and pages and 6 hours later i have a phone that only has "Sony Ericsson" written on it.
Here's how i started - based on DoomLord's instructions i installed Flashtool (from here) . HOwever I was unable to find xrecovery folders in the log messages.
Followed step by step procedure but realised that each time i upgraded the kernel, phone seemed to be going into some bootloop.
I realised that this may be due to my phone running on Android 2.1
SO i moved to another thread . Downloaded these files with the hope that they would work.
meanwhile was also following video through a similar page that was detailing the methods for installing custom ROMs. The reason i followed another source is only because the intsructions on all these pages seemed very confusing.
i believe i may have misled myself by following two different procedures here or the files i downloaded were incorrect.
After I upgraded the kernel as per doomlord's instructions, i went into xRecovery and formatted the data folders. I had already copied the ROM files provided by Doomlord in this thread onto my SD card under a new folder. However, xRecovery was asking for .Zip files while there were .7z .
Tl;dr - formatted data on xRecovery and did not have the correct updated files. phone is not functioning now
Tragically so, I am now left with an Xperia that only seems to be displaying the words "Sony Ericsson". I wish to learn from this experience but hope its not at the cost of a good phone!
Would the experts believe that this phone can be un-bricked now???
your phone is not bricked so dont worry. just make sure you have the newest flashtool. dont upgrade the kernel if you are staying on 2.1. if youhavent downgaded the kernel then do so. if it doesnt work, just download your baseband and firmware you want. as for rooting on 2.1, you can use super one click. for 2.3, you hav to use the flashtool
If you are on 2.1, then you don't have to go through all the downgrade/upgrade hassel.
Just turn on debugging and use flashtool/superoneclick to root.

Wow... such a relief to know that. Was exasperated and down-beat to even look at my phone.
please help me in identifying the right version of softwares and protocols to follow. In the current state, i connected my phone and flashed it once using flash tool but there has been no progress. Am i missing out a few steps?
How do i upgrade to 2.3 eventually?
Thanks a lot for the support and motivation
ok if you want to go to 2.3 download the firmware from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936733
flash it through the flashtool but you have to be in flash mode.

Reading this from office now. Shall check in a few hours once i'm back home.
guys i just root my X10 mini and i need upgrading android to 2.3...does need to create ROM or just download android 2.3 file install it???i need your respone and a helping hand...thanks
Please use the search function the next time. For your convenience Click Here
And try this custom ROM for starters. It doesn't require you to unlock boot loader and install a custom kernel.
and when you know how to use the search function then I know for sure you can manage to unlock your boot loader and can flash a custom ROM
lol. they will so kill you for this question. It's forbidden to be a noob in these forums.
Here are the steps you must follow in "search" terms:
1. Root (obviously you already did).
2. Unlock bootloader. (google the hell out of it, search these forums. To install a new rom you need to install a new kernel. For a new kernel you need to unlock the bootloader. Search "How to Unlock the bootloader"). You will need your PC.
3. Flash a new Kernel and Install CWM recovery. Generally just flashing the kernel takes care of the CWM installation. (It's some kind of android bios you must install first thing after having unlocked the bootloader. Check "flashtools" and "how to flash a kernel" guides). You'll need your PC.
4. Flash the ROM. It's the easiest part. It's done by hard reseting the phone. check "How to flash a ROM".
gl dude.
There's nothing wrong with being noobish. Everyone is a noob at some point. This is my first Android anything and I knew absolutely nothing before I came here: "Root? Custom rom? ClockworkMod Recovery? What the hell does any of it mean?!"
But there's a fine line between asking noob questions and asking noob questions without doing any research. But hey..at least the OP was polite.

the line would be drawn like n00b vs n3wbi3. n00b - as what my sig says and n3wbi3 - doesn't ask unless there's a prob or question that needs to be clarified. i was once a n00b but know where to start and that is hitting the start button.

Doing your research... Just about every current iteration of GB-Roms for the X10Mini requires a custom kernel, The installation instructions for the ROM you linked to clearly states to unlock the bootloader and install nAa-08 kernel.
If you want to point people to ROMS that run on stock kernel, stick to froyo/CM6.
plz reply me
plz answer my problem
First of all, you lost your network-capability when you unlocked your bootloader, so i hope you made a backup of your orignal firmware. Restore that and then relock the bootloader, your network capability should hopefully come back
You can't run any Gingerbread roms if you're on the X10Mini with a locked bootloader, you'll have to stick with older Froyo (2.2) Roms, just make sure the ROM you choose does not require a custom kernel. The older ones probably have to be installed with Xrecovery too, instead of CWM, use flashtool to get XRecovery onto your phone.

It isnt SIM lock, it is SEMC SIMLOCK CERTFICATE. Try S1Tool what it says.

No need to shout, not every x10 mini or x10mini pro comes with a semc-simlock certificate, if your phone is simlocked by your provider, s1tool gives you simlock-certificate not recognised.
If you unlock the bootloader on such a phone, it is most likely it will disable your radio-capability.
So everytime someone unlocks their bootloader and gets no service anymore, relocking is the only option, and then sim-unlock their phone using Omnius, or (the safest way) with an EMMA/IMEI code from their network-provider.
After that you can unlock the bootloader safely.
problem occured in upgrading
dear sir i already locked my boot loader. but i cant upgrade firmware or flash through sony companion and SEUS. how can i upgrade or restore my firmware. its shown only "Sony Ericsson" in WHITE LETTERS. plz resolve my problem.
its occured any error in flashing? any different kernal is there?
I am on custom ROM right now, phone is rooted though and just unlocked the bootloader a couple days back. I was wondering, if I flashed the nAa-11 kernel, will I still be able to use stock ROM on it until I install some GB ROM? Or do I have to flash the GB ROM right after flashing the nAa-11 kernel for the phone to work?
Just for the record, I like doing one thing at a time then checking if phone is fully stable before moving to the next step... Makes me TOO nervous
The ROM's are all compiled against a particular kernel, so stock rom won't work on the nAa-kernel, and most GB-roms won't work on the stock kernel.
You want to flash the nAa-11 kernel, do a reboot, and press the back-button several times until you get into CWM That's as sure as you can be that everything is stable at that point.
Then you can do the usual steps for installing the ROM, (Wipe data, cache, etc., install from sd-card)
If you forgot to put the ROM on your sd-card you can connect your phone through CWM in the mounts and storage section, mount usb-storage) and then copy the ROM to your phone.
Hello XDA Members!
I just changed from galaxy mini to sony ericsson live with walkman.
The phone comes just out of the box.
It has android 2.3.4 installed with sony ericsson firmware 4.0.1.A.0.283.
So what do i want to achieve with my new phone?!
1. root acces
2. update firmware to 4.0.2.A.0.62
3. install cwm to use it later for installing other roms
4. flash a new kernel to use link2sd and move apps to sd-ext like on my mini.
So anybody out here willing to give me hints to achive the above mentioned points?
As i am from germany the phone offers me an upte to 4.0.A.0.69! Is it possible to maintain the above achievments with this update?
Thx for any support!
hi and welcome to the sony world!!!
so first let me ask you a basic question is your phone branded sim locked??
Thx for welcome.
No the phone isn't branded / sim locked.
Its a stock sony phone which i bought from amazon here in germany.
Great then the easiest way to root it is a custom kernel rom.
So first you will need to unlock your bootloader; you can do it in two ways:
1.- the offical way here http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ you will lose drm and be unable to use the official track id app from sony.
2.- the test point method here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285285 you will not lose drm and track id and be able to update your phone with seus no problem. in this video http://www.google.com.mx/url?sa=t&r...tMG1Bg&usg=AFQjCNFe_MgteNSvfQYkgBoh7rwpwSVoAQ it shows you what points to use and you can do it with a paper clip it seems hard to do but it is pretty easy.
Take into account unlocking your bootloader will void warranty and may cause damage to your phone bla bla bla. You know the same thing from always.
i think this is the first step if you do it and need more help let us know or if you don't want to let me know and i will point you to some good threads for modding your phone without unlocked bootloader.

That was only about unlocking bootloader, which is needed if you want to install custom kernel and/or ROM.
For rooting, I have written a tutorial to root, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792. First root your phone and then make Over the Air update(directly from phone via 3G or WiFi) to newest firmware(which is .69 in your case).
Root will stay if you do OTA update, PC Companion/SEUS will remove root.
Also CWM installation is included in my tutorial.
Installing custom kernel is not yet in tutorial, but I will explain here.
First unlock bootloader like written in previous post. Then download the kernel you want, you will need .img file. Next, if you don't have it yet, then download Android SDK, because you will need fastboot. Move the .img file to the same folder as fastboot(C:\...\android-sdk\platform-tools), start Command Prompt, enter the following command
Code:
cd C:\...\android-sdk\platform-tools
and then
Code:
fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
Replace C:\...\ part with the path to android-sdk directory and boot.img with the correct file name. Mostly it is boot.img, but can be different on some kernels.
thx, again a member willing to help my!
So happy.
I wont to do anything wrong. As you explained i first should root the phone and then install the latest firmware.
So i downloaded this file DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip.
This will do the following
[*] This script will:
(1) root ur device using latest zergRush exploit (21 Nov)
(2) install Busybox (1.18.4)
(3) install SU files (binary: 3.0.3 and apk: 3.0.6)
The text goes on with
[*] Before u begin:
(1) make sure u have installed adb drivers for ur device
(2) enable "USB DEBUGGING"
from (Menu\Settings\Applications\Development)
(3) enable "UNKNOWN SOURCES"
from (Menu\Settings\Applications)
(4) [OPTIONAL] increase screen timeout to 10 minutes
(5) connect USB cable to PHONE and then connect to PC
(6) skip "PC Companion Software" prompt on device
I am confused and blind
Where can i find the adb drivers?
just install pc companion and it will install the drivers for you once you connect your phone for the first time that's all.

Just googled
Thats the software i get for example from sony page hxxp://www.sonymobile.com/de/tools/pc-companion/ .
Am i right?
If so, then i am ready to root my live with walkman. Finally
yep you are right
Yeah got it!
Superuser is in list for apps.
Now i will start the firmwareupdate ota.
New question again
Why can't i connect to my fritzbox via wlan without my simcard plugged in? I get an error out of reach. If i put my simcard in, i can connect to my router.
My old mini didnt bother if the simcard isn't plugged it.
It still connects to the router.
never heard of anything like it. maybe it's a bug of the firmware?
Update
Firmware 4.0.2.A.0.69 installed, Superuser still there.
So what should i do next?

Hope that is the latest one.
yeah it is well there is a 5.5 version but i have only seen it in 1 custom kernel, by the way don't try to flash any custom rom with it or you will have trouble ok.
Enough for today.
Here in germany it is 8pm (twenty o'clock).
Time to chill now.
Thank you very much to my 2 supporter helping me managing the first steps.
Hope you can help me again when i go on.
Wlan still not working without simcard inserted. Any Ideas what could be the problem or is that a normal behaviour?

Yeah if i understood right, i have to unlock bootloader first flashing a custom rom.
But now with cwm installed i am able to backup my rom and restore it if i need, am i right?
On galaxy mini we werent able to back up the stock rom via cwm.
yep you are right. As of the odd thing with the wifi and the sim still no ideas.
Hello,
I flashed the most recent MiniCM9-3.0.2 ROM with nAa ICS kernel and followed all steps carefully. Everything works except i get no service. I can find the service network (vodafone) but i cannot connect to it. I've tried to go back to stock kernel and miniCMPro 21 and i get no service as well. Any help?
Thanks
nvm... I figured it was a bootloader-issue, but i guess since you can still find the network your gsm is still working.
In any case, you're on stock rom, try relocking your bootloader and see if you can connect to the network then (Restore-button in S1-Tool)
Hi,
I'll try to restore and see if it works.
Thanks for the help.
Hi,
I restored and reinstalled CM9 and now everything is working! Thanks
i am in exactly the same boat, just flashed same rom and same kernal and now no service, i also was under the impression if i unlocked the bootloader it unlocked phone to all networks but my virgin sim would not work either, the phone was originally on orange and my orange sim worked before i done this, what do i need to do guys just flash back stock rom, if so where can i find this, thanks!
You need to use PC Companion or SEUS from Sony Ericsson to repair your phone, and then relock your bootloader with the Restore-button in S1Tool.
There is a big difference between sim-unlocking your phone, and boot-unlocking your phone.
The first one will allow you to go on other networks, the second one will allow you to flash a custom kernel.
If you want to unlock your bootloader, follow the tutorial and make sure your simlock-certificate is compatible, otherwise, obtain an EMMA/IMEI code from your provider to get your phone on other networks. In that case you can unlock your bootloader too.
There are plenty of warnings in the bootloader-unlock tutorial to prevent you from bricking your phone, if you don't understand the options that are there, don't mess with your phone.
iv tried using the repair function of pc companion but it just says no updates available for this phone, and i cant seem to find SEUS can anyone point me in the right direction please.
think i made a mistake last night though while messing, i locked the bootloader back up, had the capital R where needed, but i had a custom rom but i had flashed back the stock kernel by mistake, now the phone sits with sony ericsson on screen and doesnt do anything else, been that way for hours now, any help really appreciated!
Hi
I had the same problem. The easy way is to put the phone back to stck and start all over again. You can find SEUS here (search on google)
update_service_setup-2.11.4.11.exe
After install it just follow the instructions. When it says no update was found just click next anyway. it will restore the phone. And then start from that point:
unlock bootloader, flash kernel and install new Rom imediatly after flash kernel. DONT LET YOU PHONE START WIHT OTHER ROM OTHERWISE IT WILL GET THE SMA PROBLEM! Put the ROM file in the SD card and after install new kernel go imediatley to CWM and install the ROM.
It should work!
cheers mate iv just downloaded it and run it, this is all that happens once i restart in flashmode, any ideas
Go to the Development section for your phone in this forum and try to find a ROM that is based on the stock rom (I think you should still be able to nstall xRecovery on your phone and enter it), then flash it just like you would other custom roms.
how can i go about installing xrecovery mate as i cant access phone the way it is, i can get it into flashmode, using the power and home button then using back quickly after i restart, iv tried flashing a custom kernel back onto it too from flashtool but it gives an error and doesnt do anything, if only i could get that kernel back on at least just to get it out of the freezing!
Open flashtool and connect your turned-on phone through usb, if it says phone connected with usb-debugging, you can use flashtool to install xrecovery and reboot into that.

ok guys this is what im getting when trying to flash stock rom via flash tool
Tutorial. Bootloader unlocked. Install ClockWorkMod, Kernel and ROM
Before Flashing a Custom Kernel. You have to have your bootloader unlocked.
To Unlock Bootloader follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1730874
"This tutorial is for people who just bought a cell phone and want to customize, but afraid to make any modification other than Workshops.
All I'll be teaching procedures have been tested by me (Xperia Live With Walkman Wt19a) remembering that this tutorial can also be applied to other devices on the same line, but the person is aware of everything you're doing.."
Ok So we go to our interest.
It is recommend to have the Pc and Compani SUS for any drivers.
I will describe in steps. "Before you do anything BATTERY MUST BE 100% LOAD"
1º. You need to have CWM "ClockworkMod" To do a FULL BACKUP which TER is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. If you can not install the CWM, progress is TOTALLY PUT IN YOUR OWN RISK. (OK JA ADVISED THIS).
2º.Download CWM-Install here is the link: http://www.4shared.com/rar/qZQbLbdc/CWM-Install.html?
3º. After completing the download extract to a folder.
4º.1. Run install-cwm '. Cmd
install-cmw1.cmd - Xperia Arc / Neo
install-cmw2.cmd - Xperia Mini / MiniPro / Active / Live With Walkman
2.Enable USB Debugging on device
3.Connect your device using usb data cable
4.Follow on screen instruction
5º. Once that's done you should have already installed the CWM ClockworkMod then we will open it when you boot the phone. (When the phone shine brighter or some flashing LED FINGER TIGHT TO KEEP THE VOLUME DOWN BUTTON AND HOLD briefly) This should open the recovery console CWM.
6º. Now with the volume knob go to Backup / Restore. Hold down the middle button to enter the option. (Choose Backup) just wait a bit and BACKUP YOUR READY NOW IS READY.
7º. Restart the phone.
8º. Now a lot of attention. We will install the kernel. First of all you need to have the drivers installed ADB; So here's the link: http://www.4shared.com/zip/2KEB9taN/Android_ADB_Interface.html
9º. Now plug the phone into fastboot MODE. is vol + and connect usb cable. Blue LED must be connected. Once that's done your computer will start looking for drivers and will not find ... Then Extract the ADB drivers into a Folder and indicate to the drivers downloaded. This should work. If you are having trouble installing the drivers ADB. I recommend you download a program called Driver Identifier. To locate the driver.
10º. Now with the drivers already instaldos We Correctly Download the program called Flash Tools.
11º. Open the program Flash Tools. After clicking on the radius and choose MODE Fastboot. Not FlashBoot NOT CONFUSE. Leave the phone connected in mass storage mode. Now in clice Reboot into fastboot mode (via Fastboot) Note If you want to connect in Manual mode Fastboot can be connected normally.
12º. Now comes the most decisive moment of all :victory: ... You sure which kernel will apply. For if you apply some kernel Wrong at Risk of Damaging the Machine there only using an Advanced Backup has been done to resurrect.
13º. In my case my Mobile Live With WT19 is a Walkman So I will choose the Kernel Kamarush to show in this tutorial. Link to Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709032
TIP. BEFORE YOU HAVE A ROM A CHOICE IN MEMORY CARD. IN MY CASE TO U.S. USING THE LINK REAL ICS V5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1707876:laugh:
14º. In the Flash Tools Click Select Kernel to Flash. Go up the file you Kernel for Low LWW Live With Walkman. Once you have the absolute certainty that the Kernel is right ok just take two clicks and it already in the kernel will install automatic a process is really fast.
15º. Now when the phone started so get in CWM.
16º. Now you need to do a reset FULL. First MAKE TO DO a FACTORY RESET AFTER A WIPE CACHE PARTITION. GO TO ADVANCED TO CHOOSE AND WIPE Dalvik CACHE.
17º. Then come back and go to install zip from sdcard. Choose choose zip from sdcard.
18º. Now go to the folder that has the ROM. done so just follow the installation procedures is an aroma "Do not clear it does not change anything already WT19 is defined as the first. Do not change anything in the options wipe.
19º. Done it now when you return to the CWM modules you need to install the WIFI to work. Link http://www.4shared.com/zip/c3qIfOdP/new_wifi_modules.html?
Installing is the same as the ROM.
20 °. Once that's done just restart your phone and you're ready. Easy Bad is not the only the beginning you have to install the drivers and ADB CWM for even those who do not have.
THIS IS OPTIONAL.

no need to put the full tutorial, you could just write that before flashing a custom kernel you have to have your bootloader unlocked, and paste the link to this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1730874

I have not tested the method of test point, but it seems safe. If the person does not want to risk connecting something wrong. You can try to follow in the footsteps of Sony http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ according to your model. In my point of view I prefer methadone plus Sony's command in Ms Dos. Regarding the problem of manufacturing data can rest assured that no problems have at least the Sony because methadone is a specific code. Now as to the test point can not guarantee. In my view these quiet line Xperia handsets are very strong. These devices are actually very good.

Yes, you can't root your device on ICS directly, you have to downgrade if you don't want to unlock your bootloader. Everything is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695514

No need to unlock the bootloader to install CWM. However you will not get to modify your kernel. Cause to modify kernel you must have unlocked Bootloader. Installs CWM puts your phone in Debug mode and apply the. Bat according to your device model http://www.4shared.com/rar/qZQbLbdc/CWM-Install.html?
The next step you will have CWM.
Now you want to unlock your bootloader? you must use the means of unlocking the Sony the best way http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
After unlocking your bootloader. Then everything gets easier. Despois to unlock your bootloader. When you apply the Kernel it will come with CWM already built there then just do a full wipe and then apply the ROM to taste.
