for the first one: check settings - about phone, it will list the installed firmware version and baseband
for the second one: no phone comes with a bootloader unlocked, so if you haven't unlocked it yourself, that requires action on your part
for the third one: if the second one isn't done, you don't have the third one, you will have to flash that yourself after you've unlocked the bootloader

1. Its not an update, its a custom rom.
2. Baseband can be found under About Phone
If you don't know how to unlock boot loader and what NaA kernel is I highly suggest you read up a lot more before doing anything
If you dont chances are you'll get your phone screwed up.
There's a good guide in the X8 development section on unlocking bootloader by SpyderX.

[Q] MiniCM7 without nAa?

Hi,
I want to put the MiniCM7-2.1.9 on my X10 Mini Pro. At the moment I have Froyobread v023f installed
Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Kernel: 2.6.29 [email protected] #1
Do I HAVE to flash a new kernel (nAa)?
Where can I see that my Bootloader is unlocked?

You do need that kernel, the rom won't work without it.
Have a look in the Development section for SE Tweaker, that'll tell you if your phone is unlocked.

If you never installed a custom kernel, your bootloader is locked so you need to unlock it before installing the kernel.
Latest MiniCM versions (from 2.1.0) need nAa's custom kernel to work so you have to install it or install a previous release of the ROM (I'd suggest 2.0.5)
use this to unlock your bootloader and flash a the nAa kernel - easy and quick

is it possible to flash the kernel after the rom? because I just did, and I got Sony Ericsson logo in screen.. can't install the kernel or go into recovery..

no you can and your doomed.
just joking. remember before installing a rom if the requirements says use this kernel then you should flash the kernel because it is required right? try going back to stock using pc companion or seus

As far as I know, MiniCM7 works only with his nAa kernel, so your bootloader has to be unlocked. MiniCM Pro by paul-xxx uses stock kernel or custom kernels (nAa kernel with that rom will give a wifi error).
To check if you bootloader is unlocked. Use S1Tool and check the loader version. If it's a lower cased 'r' then it's unlocked, if not there are many tutorials around here to help you unlock your bootloader. Hope this helps.

Go to the official page (link below)

It's got all the details that you'll need just make sure that you read every single line thoroughly.
If you make any mistakes than you can use sony ericsson update service to reset it back to the stock SE rom.
Btw I recommend that you use the flash tool to unlock bootloader and to check if its unlocked as Noobonic said use the SE1Tool.
For me I'd say that MiniCM7 is the best custom rom that exists right now but since we have to flash the nAa kernel it seems kind of risky at first but if you understand the steps and follow it properly than there's not much to worry about.
The other ROM's are also quite good but the MiniCM7 is the best and most stable custom ROM.

[q] rom & kernel

is this rom :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193001 for locked bootloaders? and which kernel is the best for locked bootloader
is it possible to bring ics to locked bootloader?
reading the instructions i would say its for unlocked bootloader and the best kernel for it would be the one provided for it the custom kernel stated in the description
Sent from my X10i using XDA
since that rom is for ulbl im on locked so which kernel is best for locked bootloader(not that rom)
That ROM is for both bootloaders ( but it's even recommended to be on locked bootloader ). About kernels ... Th Kernel n5-1 is the best kernel for our x10. It's extremely efficient.
ok so can u give me n5-1 for xperia x10 locked bootloader?
ThGo v18a ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193001 ) comes with Th Kernel n5-1. You can download newest Th ROM from here - http://www.mediafire.com/?xffeb3kbp1s27iy. If you are looking to download the Kernel itself, here is the link - http://www.mediafire.com/?xffeb3kbp1s27iy.
since you are on locked bootloader you need not flash kernels separately.
the kernel for locked bootloaders are embeded in the ROM itself for locked bootloaders.
and yea ics isn't yet available on locked bootloaders.

[Request[: Rooted .62 LWW (or ALL MDPI) Rom

Hi,
I recently tried to root .62 LWW stock rom.
My unsuccessful attempts are recorded here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2068238
Again today i tried to do it 2 times. Once with Flashtools and other time with SEUS (though it says i have the latest version on .58!).
I have unlocked BL so doing OTA on .58 rooted version = stops my device from turning on.
So i am just requesting whether someone could upload a rooted .62 stock rom for LWW version? IAlso i have tried rooting on my own using Knight45's article but it failed to boot :/
So now my only option is to get a .62 rooted rom and tweak it slowly on my own
It would be much appreciated for your support in this = )
Thank you
Download A Stock ROM (Check Stickies Thread) then Flash a Custom Kernel (You Had Unlocked your bootloader right? ) so you can get Root

Hi,
Little confused as this hasn't been mentioned before.
Are you saying, for me to get root on .62, all i have to do is:
Flash a stockof .62 rom to my LWW
Flash a custom Kernel i.e. rage kernal 3.0 or x-kernal?
and i shall have root?
And also, yes i have unlocked bootloader.
Custom kernal i was looking to use (will most likely use rage kernal):

You can flash custom pre-rooted kernel compatible with your FW version, or you will have to fimd the right method to root your FW versions.
Not all versions/kernels can be rooted, sometimes another kernel have to be flashed to do the rooting then you can flash original kernel again.

Your bootloader is unlocked just go ahead and flash phantom kernel, it is pre-rooted already and have CWM
