Ok guys i will try to explain myself the best i can.
I have an xperia mini pro sk17i so i was on 0.62 after i decided to test some rooms ect, so i opened the bootloader with the sony webpage and rooted my rom. I also installed another kernell.
But now i want to get back to my original 0.62 stock rom. I flashed a version of 0.42 and rooted it, and when i tried to upgrade from the mobile system to 0.62 it says that it cant be done. Also i tried to install xparts in order to get cmw recovery and all the time it says force close it cant be installed.

You Cannot use OTA Update after unlocked your bootloader,You need to use flashtool to Update your phone firmware
How to root .62 is just the same as Rooting ICS 4.0.4 my friend

Yep, as he said. Download the firmware and flash it via flashtool

Just go here for rooting

Download official firmware and flash it. You can also relock the bootloader after that.

[Q]Please help me!

Hello, I'm using nAa kernel v011 & MiniCM 2.2.0, I wanted to revert back to stock 2.1, I tried SEUS and seus say my phone has the latest update installed, and there is just an exit button, can some1 help me? I tried flashing stock kernel and use SEUS but still ended with the same result

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.
Sent from my E10i using XDA
Dude I mean a rom which is compatible wit both stock kernel and custom kernel
Well then can you tell me which rom is compatible with both kernel please? Thank you

the thread which you want to download a custom rom always clearly stated the kernel to use with the rom

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?

You don't using nAa kernel right? To use Mini-cm7 2.2.0 you must use naa kernel
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
Like Elwino2.3 said you need to flash the nAa kernel using flashtool.
But before that you need to unlock your bootloader than flash the kernel.
Please re-read the thread carefully where you got the MiniCm7-2.2.0 ROM.
All necessary details are provided.
Don't worry it also happened to me. I got too confident coz i had flashed many other ROM's and so i just flashed the ROM without reading the instruction.
You either use Sony Ericsson Update Service to reset your phone back to the stock sony ericsson rom or you can try to directly flash the kernel.
As for myself i used the Update Service coz i thought that it was more safe.

[Q] About install custom rom from GB to ICS...

can i install custom rom ICS?
or must upgrade stockrom to ICS then Flas custom rom ICS
plz answer me
sorry my english is bad
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

my phone is unlocked bootloader
thankyou :laugh:
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

Yes, but .587 isn't released for xperia mini pro and the other devices. Only a few have got the update right now, but if there's a custom rom based on it for your device it should work...
Btw hitting thanks woule be nice

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

AW: Cant start my phone after flashing....
Have u wipe data and cache? If not, Boot into recovery and Marke the wipes. than restart again.

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
