hey guys! i m using xperia mini, rooted, locked bootloader, installed clockwork recovery by using x-Parts
i decided to flash real ICS r5.1
but now... when i start my phone, sony ericsson logo did appear but it wont continue running...
i cant reboot into recovery too. i did hold volume button down and push power on button but it just wont boot into recovery mode.
b4 i try to flash the rom, i did backup in clockwork
desperately need help! :crying: thanks in advance

Just flash the original rom with flashtool. Do it like here.
Have you been on rooted ics or rooted gingerbread? Cause I think you have to be on rooted ics to install real ics, but I don't know exactly

Download Flashtool from HERE
DOWNLOAD official ICS firmware from HERE
Run Flashtool click on the flashing icon ( left side below "file" option)
Select flashmode > ok
Setup should be like this > select OK
Shutdown phone and press Volume Down while plug in usb GREEN light on
How to root 4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.431)
Go to settings > Security > Mark "Unknown sources"
Settings > Developer options > Mark USB debugging
Settings > Xperia > connectivity > USB connection mode > select MSC mode
1 ) Download Xperia ray kernel from HERE
2) Go to C:/ Drive > flashtool > firmwares > delete everything present and Put the kernel ( ST18i_4.1.A.0.562_kernel.ftf )
3) Run Flashtool click on the flashing icon ( left side below "file" option)
Select flashmode > ok
Setup should be like this > select OK
Shutdown phone and press Volume Down while plug in usb GREEN light on
Flashtool may show error after flashing kernel, no worries
4) After flashing restart your device, It will not start completely, remain at Sony logo or remain blank/black.
Whatever the status is, just restart your device and proceed with the rooting--->
( Make sure you close flashtool before running the rooting toolkit )
Now connect your mobile to PC and Root Your Phone
5) Download Xperia mini 4.0.4 Kernel and flash it
Your mobile is now rooted (See if any Superuser app has been installed on your phone ) and back to life

the most easy way to flash custom rom is to unlock your bootloader first...then flash any custom kernel that have root and CWM pre-installed...then you can flash any custom rom without any problem....

THANK YOU
OMG! THANK YOU ALL for your time to read my post and reply me!
PROBLEM SOLVED! I M SO HAPPY!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

I wouldn't do it with the kernel to flash, cause if something goes wrong you have the ray kernel on mini pro and you will have to try to unlock bootloader and flash other kernel. I would just flash the ftf file for .42 and root, run local-prop and upgrade to ics and run push-root-files.

had $tucked same situation

Okay, have you got latest flashtool installed? Please install all drivers for all phones and modes from flashtool installation folder -> drivers.
Turn phone off, take off battery, insert battery, hold volume down, connect usb, flash stock rom!
That should work, try it again.
Be sure the custom rom you flash is same as the base you used before. I mean if you flash an ics custom rom, you have to be on ics before, same on gingerbread

Thanks.............

How to flash it..i mean after downloading stock frimware where you put files in flas
plz tell me i have same problem of that ..

Please read this!!!
People with locked bootloaders please read this
u have installed a recovery mode (using x-parts or any other methods) to your system partition. When u flash a rom, it formats system partition. so u can't go back to recovery until u bootup and install it again. to get a permanent recovery, u have to unlock bootloader and flash a kernel that have a recovery mode (it's getting installed to your boot partition). so it won't get wiped by a rom flash.

Hello ravin
You gave us the reason, and a solution for unlocked bootloaders... The question is that the problem happens in locked ones.
Anyone knows how to solve this?
There are plenty of roms for Locked Bl, so it is just a questionvof method with the Cwm installation.
Thanks for your input!

You could try opening the rom.zip, replace the files in the zip with the files from cwm (can be found in the forum), zip it again and flash it

[Q] Bricked My WT19i

I have a rooted SE wt19i with CWM recovery installed and yesterday I wiped all the data, cache and system files to install Minimul Triumph ROM.
When I rebooted my phone it was stucked at the First Sony Ericsson screen and didnt boot into recovery. I have a Backup On My SD.
Please Help
have you tried flashing back to the original firmware using flashtool?
Yes i DId try but it doesnt even go to flash mode
Edit:I finally managed to go to flash mode. I flashed the firmware succesfully thanks kevin
First, I cannot find that kind of ROM for WT19i, could be wrong ROM to install. You can only install ROMs, that are built for your phone.
Second, you must have custom kernel to boot into custom ROM. Stock kernel only works with stock ROM. First install custom kernel(there's plenty of them in Development section, like X Kernel, Rage Kernel, bbooff's kernel etc) and then via CWM install custom ROM(install from sdcard).
Most custom kernels include CWM.
Please help me

I had the same problen and fixed it. So first you will need a stock firmware of ICS (find it on google can't provide link because I am using phone...sorry) then you will need latest Flashtool version (download it on google too).
Once you have everything downloaded follow the steps.
1)Instal Flashtool (it's easy)
2)Then open it and navigate folder with name Firmwares.
3)Put in this folder the .ftf file you downloaded (I mean the stock Firmware) Plug the phone in and wait while Flashtool will recognize your phone. IF not instal ADB drivers
4)Then open Flashtool and hit the button with the lightning
5)Choose flashmode
6)Then choose the firmware you puted in the folder.
7)Follow the on-screen instructions and you have your phone back

u can just reflash your kernel and restore your backup from recovery. if u used x-parts or any app to install recovery it installs it to system partition. when u install a new rom it wipes your system partition.
if u haven't unlocked bootloader u have to flash stock firmware via flashtool. then install a recovery mode and restore your backup.

u maybe using an incompatible kernel. try reflashing it via flashtool. if it doesn't works use fastboot commands from command prompt or a terminal.

Sony ericsson live with walkman Mobile wont boot ?

Sorry Guys for making this thread..I really didnt find the required thread..
Actually i use galaxy r and in that i know how to enter recovery, flash everything.
This is my friends mobile he gave me to just check what is wrong.
I dont know how to enter sony ericson recovery mode in this live with walkman..
I tried pressing Vol up and power but i got red led and the screen was blank..Is der any other method to enter recovery?
Now what can i do?..Can i flash a stock fw..If so which version ...Iam not able to check anything since the mobile wont boot at all..It repeats the process of sony logo- walkman boot animation.
I downloaded the flash tool also from some thread..
Is there anything i can just do to make the mobile boot?..
He finally updated to ICS ..no rooting or flashing done so far...
well in xperia devices they dont have a inbuild recovery like as in galaxy devices..
u need root and install a recovery...
and for entering recovery u have to keep pressing vol down/up button
for how to root and install a recovery follow this thread.

[Q] Formatted System, (cleared everything )st18i

Ehh... I´m a noob...
I tried to install Iced Bean 2.1 on my Sony Xperia Ray st18i (4.1.b.0.587)
I pressen on x-Parts and went to Recoverymode (by pressing Vol. Down + Home)
After I got into this mode ( which was new to me ) I pressed on every clear button and
went to advanced and formatted everything except my sd... kinda stupid i know
but I done this because I though it have to be to be a full wipe or smth like this.
Then I quitted the mode and tried to turn on the phone to go to ROM manager and
use the backup from Iced Bean 2.1 but then I checked I formatted the system *facepalm*
All I can do is now turn on and stare on the SONY logo.
Could you guys help me pls ?

flash stock sony firmware via flashtool...if you dont know how, there are several tutorials in this forum
or unlock your bootloader and flash a kernel with build in recovery like vds kernel for example. than you can install the backup of iced bean via that recovery and you cant wipe that recovery
You may want to flash your phone back to stock rom if you desire..
All you need is ftf and flashtool
you can download stock rom ftf here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36177572&postcount=1
then follow tutorial how to flash it here : http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239

Flashing a different kernel is a good idea too, but you need an unlocked bootloader. Then you flash it in fastboot mode

yes you can. get a kernel compatible to the rom you flashed.
flashing stock rom thru flashtool might be a better idea tho. then start again from scratch, make sure you got it right this time.

Okay, i just stated up flashtool and started flashing the .54 firmware, Checked no unkown sources. Started flashing. Flashtool finished and said i need to reboot my phone, what i did: Disconnected USB cable, waited 1 minute and booted up phone... Now i just got the "old" bootanimation... and still bootloop (from the rom in the first post) so its looks for me that flashtool "didnt flashed" my phone i also tryed sony update service but thatone said it cant flash .54 because i got constom firmware....
I got it! if flashed ONLY THE KERNAL from .54..... Who has a good .tft of the whole stock rom? And how can i charge my phone when it is in bootloop? i think my phone is almost empty now...

Try to rurn it off firt, power + volume up untill you feel (1+) 3 vibrations, see if it charges then.
If you have used PC Companion before, start repair, and wait till file download is complete and PCC ask you to connect in flash mode, close PCC and built the FTF with flashtool.

Try this press button continously( volume up or down i don't know about sola but in xperia u cwm can access using down button )
If this does not help then flash the stock ftf file using flashtool and then root again
Gud luck
