You need to use flashtool to root and unlock your bootloader.. once you archived that then you can install the ROM you want..
Flashtool can be downloaded from this link..

You need to find and flash FXP132 kernel for the above ROM to work... also make sure your baseband is .71.... good luck

Well this kernel does not boot my custom rom (ferralab) and has no cwm so im not able to proced.
I have repaired the phone via sony pc companion, then rooted, installed your kernel and finaly the cwm of the flashtools and still not able to recognize the sony ericsson x10i
Any other help?
the kernel above is for fxp-cm9 roms. if you are using feralab ics, you need to use the ferakernel_ics located here: http://www.mediafire.com/?bt92v0qpxt9varq

how did you flash the kernel? its a zip file so you cant flash it through flashtool and in CWM im unable to as its getting stuck without any error messages...
I flashed fxp kernel 129 with cwm via flash tools.
And all went good after.

Is it important to be on another ics rom before flashing a cm9 rom? When i went to feralab ics it was necessary. I want to flash VR's Xperia S ics rom and im not sure if i can flash fxp 132 and then the xperia s ics rom if i am on stock GB firmware before. Thanks for help!

Don't need any pre-installation of CM9 roms.. all you need Xperia ICS rom and you are good to go...
1) flash the FXP132 kernel using flashtool..
2) Start phone and go to recovery and do factory reset. cache wipe, dalvik wipe..
3) Go to mounts and storage select mount/data, mount/system
3a) Now select format/cache and format cache similarly format/data and format/system
4) Now select and flash the VR's Xperia X ICS rom and restart
5) Go back to CWM and install Gapps and sony's add on apps if you want and restart..
6) Now log in to your google account and download what ever apps you want
6) Go back to CWM and wipe cache and dalvik cache but do not select "Factory/data reset"
You should be good to go
Im also attaching FXP132 kernel with this post so that you dont have to search for it.... Thank FXP for his amazing work....
Hi already flash this cm9 but I can't have ums.. It'st normal

[ROM][XPERIA SOLA] 6.0.B.3.184 Central Europe

Can't say much more about the ROM than what's already in the title, I grabbed it from i-don't-quite-remember-where (but not from warez type sites) since I couldn't update with PCC 'cause of unlocked bootloader. Checked it and it's the real deal, got it flashed and running on my Sola. FTF packaged neatly in a RAR.

Yes the rom came from Irontech so all credits and thanks go to him for publishing it (i only remembered it was him who released it on forum when rohit gave the link), but i think its place is here where it won't be lost in waves of threads like on general.
File Size: 242.95MB ,will give it a try.

Check in the Update Centre, and if it is available, simply download and update your device. And no need to flash too!– I updated my phone this way today and it is completely safe. Hope that helps, mate

If I remember right you can't root manually yet. You have to flash a kernel with auto root etc.
If anyone knows otherwise please share!

Hi.
I don't have Xperia Sola, but if you have access to your CWM it's a good ting if you before flash anything you made a backup of your phone using CWM.
Maybe you haven't made any backup of your phone, than you can try to download some custom rom's from this forum for Xperia Sola, if not you can try to find a stock rom for your phone. I'm sure it has been posted lot of Xperia Sola stock rom here, and you flash it by using flashtool.
Maybe you will found something here:

Did you create a backup of your stock rom before going for cyan??
If u did then just restore the backup & then flash a stock kernel. You'll be fine.
