Hi there,
I adquired a X10a with BL unlocked and X10S V9 by Championswimmer rom. It was Sim unlocked with x10unlocked dot com software.
I installed xRecovery because i wanted to give it a try to DonutHD. After wiping and installing it thru xRecovery, i couldnt boot my phone.
So i opened Flashtool.
I used (accidentally) x10_v1_BLRelock.ftf.
Tried and successed to flash x10_2.3_aro.ftf but i couldn't unlock my bootloader.
It appears everytime i flash: - Loader : S1_Loader_Root_f851 - Version : R4A024 / Bootloader status : UNROOTABLE
and with every flashed stock rom, i cant use my cellphone radio, not with my original chip or any other.
This image appears when i run s1tool.
Does it have any solution? or my x10 is totally bricked?
Thank you.
Anyhelp!
Any help would be appreciated :/

I think its because you flashed custom ROM with custom kernel without cleaning your phone (factory reset, cache wipe and dalvik wipe) then you locked the bootloader and flashed stock ROM on custom kernel... Both X10S and donut HD rin on modified stock kernel... You need to root your phone again and unlock your bootloader, Once you achieved that go to CWM and do factory reset, wipe cahce and wipe dalvik cache... Now plug your phone with flashtool and flash the X10S.... If you are using donut HD then you need to flash the required kernel and then donut HD...
Im atttaching the required kernel which you can use with donut HD... If wifi doesnt work then flash wifi fix which is the 2nd attachment...
This kernel link was available till X10S v8.2/8.3 (both are by championswimmer) and now i cant find the link so im uploading here to help you out... hope this helps...

Flash the kernel using flashtool and WiFi fix using CWM....
Remember you flash the WiFi fix after you install the ROM.... and please do a total clean install... Also if X10s V9 gives you problem then try using X10s V8.2/8.3 and use the kernel and WiFi fix from above post.... good luck

Have you tried redoownloading the zip file ? Just in case it is broken...
Otherwise, if you already flash nAa-11 kernel, you won't have any problems I think...

is your recovery tool xrecovery or cwm recovery. you'll be needing cwm based recovery but i believe it is included in the kernel. or you could have downloaded the wrong rom zipfile.

It is always suggested to take a backup of stock rom before installing any custom rom..have you taken any backups?
I did not make a backup when I flashed custom roms because I was a complete noob and I just flash a custom rom. Btw thanks for your reply.
Sent from my E10i using XDA
Download any rom for ur device which completely works with stock kernel....
Then 1st do necesary wipes
Install custom rom
Flash stoock kernel...
Boot. Properly
And then try with pc companion or SEUS
But if I'm using a custom kernel and if I flash a rom that is compatible with stock kernel wont recovery will say incompatible kernel found? I've tried that before.

Dude I mean a rom which is compatible wit both stock kernel and custom kernel

u have already installed naa kernel, meaning that you have unlocked bootloader. this article said that you can update through SEUS if you have unlocked the bootloader. i'm not experienced with x10mp bootloader issue before this but my gtab7 experienced bootloader problem after unlocked,flash the stock bootloader and solved the problem.
but you said that you have flash the stock kernel and still cant install through seus. why dont you try to reinstall seus,mybe something wrong with it. and btw,did you manage to flash stock kernel successfully?

Better First upgrade to ics. Is your Bootloader unlocked?
Otherwise you will have to use local prop method. Check out my signature there's a rooting guide. In the guide there's how to root 4.1.B.0.431 and there's the Link to DragonClawsAreSharp's great tutorial

If your Bootloader is unlocked you needn't do the procedure in the tutorial, just Flash the ics Firmware ftf via flashtool and Flash a custom ics Kernel, for example rage Kernel for 4.0.4. After that install the custom rom

Just flash it with wipe all, but before do a backup using for example titanium backuü. Wipe all and exclude nothing.
After flashing plug off, let phone turned off, hold volume up and connect to pc, flash a rooted kernel (like I said for example rage kernel for 4.0.4) and boot up. Enable usb debugging and unknown sources and msc mode (not necessary just for sure), push the rom installation zip to sd card and shut down.
Flash the recommend kernel and boot in cwm. See what has to be formatted/wiped and after that install the rom.
Reboot and enjoy

You can't Update until Sony hasn't released it. If your bootloader is Locked you can connect to pc companion and it'll find the Update, but it has to be released First. You will have to wait

So I had this rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1876792) and i wanted to go back to my official rom. I went to CDW wiped out system, date, ect etc and I tried to restore my backup which I did with my CWM before I use the custom rom. Everything ok but when I reboot me device it shows the bootlogo of the custom firmware and not the sony and after that it goes black. How do I solve this? I searched but I didnt find anything
Please be more exact on what you wiped and formatted all. What kernel and cwm version are you using? Did you made the nand backup with the same cwm version?

And you flashed back stock (based) kernel?
When you flash .ftf rom using a flashtool, it flashes all official components (rom, kernel, baseband) by default. I apologize flashtool is a most useful method to go back at stock rom. What do you think?

Yea. Cwm doesn't reatore kernel. Just the system, data dalvik etc.
You'll need an ics kernel like alliance or suave to boot into the restored backup.

If you used cwm from kernel, then yes, after you flash stock kernel, you will need to instal cwm to system.

I highly doubt that someone with custom kernel would go and install cwm in system.
i have tried to flash several roms. i unlocked the bootloader with flashtool and installed bussybox and root. but when i try to flash a rom and install it i get stock at the loading screen. i installed Naa kernel. so i really dont now what to do now.

Brother, you flashed a jelly bean kernel so you can just run CyanogenMod10 based roms(android 4.1.2 roms)
If you're going to flash a gingerbread rom(CyanogenMod7) (android 2,3) you must use a gingerbread kernel like : "nAa 14 gingerbread for x10mini"
Good Luck
