The framework can't be copied over, it needs to be pushed and installed.

Or...
You could just flash again only using system.bin and everything you had would be there.
;-)
You also will need loader.sin
I did this a couple of times and work for me; I only need to root again
Good luck!
PS: In the firmware folder, you need to leave ONLY this 2 files: System.sin and loader.sin. Backup and delete all other files like amss.sin, cache.sin, etc.

Hi. The rooting guide can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849030
Basically you need to have clockworkmod (aka CWM) up and running to be able to install the custom rom you're referring to. Because you've already unlocked your bootloader, you can now begin rooting your device. Follow the steps indicated in the rooting guide.
DONT DO ANYTHING after that, just finish rooting your device. I'm going to try installing this CWM-enabled kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897908, and see if I can boot into CWM to flash the nTWEAKED rom. I'll let you know how it goes.

first of all your on stock (official) rom and didnt root your device ???
so for flashing this rom you need to root your device and have recovery mode too for that check the development section for custom kernels with auto-rooting and CWM too personally i think you should use this one over here :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897908
instructions given in the thread how to flash kernel through fastboot mode, follow them ...
after you sucessfully flash the kernel you will have root and CWM...
now to the flashing part :-
1) copy the downloaded nTWEAKED beta V2.zip file in the root of your internal memory
2) boot in recovery by presssing volume +/- when sony logo appears with a vibration and red led glows
3)choose option update from sd
4)choose the file in your case nTWEAKED beta V2.zip
5)installation will start an aroma installer will pop up follow instructions and your done
PS:- cant get simpler than this

Hi,
I don't know how to make the flashable zip but I have uploaded the files you want inside a compressed file. DONT FLASH IT, instead since you are root you can copy-paste the files to their appropriate folders and check/alter the permissions to rw-r--r--. Then make a restart and wipe dalvik cashe just in case (although it might work without the wiping - not sure).
Hope it works for you
PS: the "com.sonyericsson.audioeffectif.xml" is inside the /system/etc/permissions folder.

Hello everybody,
My name is Leandro, I live in Argentina, so my english is not good enough I've a Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini ST15
Today I was experimenting with mi phone but I make a terrible mistake.
Let me tell us in order what happend:
- I had ParanoidAndroid 2.53 with some bugs tippical of a beta edition
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963556
- I decided to back to ICS. I installed Cyanogen Mod 10 FPX 150
https://sites.google.com/site/projectfreexperia/download/cyanogen-mod-10
However I don't fell confortable without a sock camera
- I download and install (with all the wipes) XPERIA Ultimate HD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991371
It doesn't come with the "boot.img" so I download KernelPanic 1.25v (I put into my phone via Fastboot)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861905
HOWEVER I didn't notice when I installed the new rom, the device I'd selected wasn't mine (I make that terrible mistake)(I'd selected "LVW" or something like that)
- When I ran the new ROM, the touchscreen didn't work but all the buttons worked fine. :crying:
- I tryed to back to the Official ROM via Flashtool, but the touchscreen continued with this issue
- I reinstalled the XPERIA Ultimate HD choosing correctly but didn't work
I asked to some people, but they don't know about Sony devices.
If someone knows something to do I will apreciate too much.
Thanks in advance!

obviously, I did that as I write in the begining, that's why I don't understand the problem, because I did all the wipes, put the same rom in the correct way, put another rom, the official rom, but, nothing happends, it's the same.
It's like I "change" an internal driver that the following instalations doesn't modify.
Did you format system partition before trying to reflash other roms?
Anyhow the touchscreen driver is in system/etc folder, the name is touch_nameofdevice.hex, if you push that file from a rom for your device and the hw_config.sh it should fix it

I format my phone via CWM y choose "format system", "format cache"
it's too strange for me, I think it's related with my bad choose that I write in the begining, but it must be a solution
I need my phone, I am an idiot

Try this:
1. Download that
2. Open the zip and replace all files in the bin folder with files for your device (!), for example from a custom rom for xperia mini
3. After pushing files for your device in there, pack the content again (the meta-inf folder and the bin folder)
4. Copy this to sd card and flash it with cwm
5. This could work, but I can't promise anything
Hope you will get a working touch screen again!
