since u already have recovery installed just download the clockowrk mod 3.1.0.0 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065197 |transfer the file to ur sd card and flash the zip from recovery reboot |Done! u have the latest recovery installed
as far as rom is concerned cm7 is all time favorite for most
here is the installatin procedure http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038338 using clockwork whch wrk the best njoy just avoid the sd partition step if u dont want a2sd stuff or read the specific rom installation instruction which requires parttioning sd card, cm7 can be installed without partitioning ur sd

No need to wipe anything.
Backups are always handy. But be aware that backup done by amonra or cwm are not compatible to each other. That means backup taken by any recovery will only be restored with same recovery.

You have to toggle signature verification off from recovery. I hope u have that on thunderg. The zip is not signed.

That zip file is for amonra recovery which doesn't have an option for formatting system. In cwm recovery, you have the format system option.
Flashing doesn't lead to bricking normally.
And all custom roms are always rooted.

I'm sorry if I'm wrong, because I've never used cm7. But from some screenshots I've seen it seems that you can change what icons appear in the notification area. I'm not sure though.

go to cyanogenmod settings and there is something like interface (i don't know exactly, because i don't have it in phone right now), but you can certainly change icons in the notification area.

thanks solved the network issue.. but as i tried to open the market it just popup for a second and close .. so unable to download anything from market...btw is it ok to flash franco.kernel v14 with cm7 .. do i need to wipe anything before flashing?
no. I just flashed. you can wipe cache+dalvik if you want. check for two files mentioned in franco's thread. if you have them, You HAVE to delete them before flashing. if you dont, just flash. you need setCPU to change the CPU freq coz CM OC screen does not display at the moment. battery and smoothness is great.

I flashed Franco kernel too, half an hour before. But I didn't check for those two files. But the phone is functioning fine.
Are those two files to be deleted are meant for everyone or for those who have previously flashed Franco kernel?

So you want to flash Vasishta Reddy's CM9 ROM, ok so you are already on UL bootloader and rooted too, and I guess you are already on .71 baseband? now just follow below steps,
flash latest FXP kernel using flashtool, it will also install cwm recovery to your phone. once done flash ROM, launcher, gapps and addons.
Here is more detailed guide, but make sure you choose latest fxp kernel.
The xperia S ics ROM. Its on the link I gave. Both I've already installed it using flashtool. I can now reboot it into recovery mode. And I have checked using S1tool and there is the small letter 'r' in "S1 ERROM VER" code part. Am I correct?

Hi!
My question is even worse. Is there a fully newbie tutorial for installing that ICS on X10?? I'm new in all that but I started reading and watching tutorials and I'm getting more and more confused after every tutorial.
I get this part: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10879507#post10879507 (great tutorial, just what I need) but after that I'm confused... It says 1)FLASH THE LATEST CM9 FXP KERNEL and there I'm confused. Where to find it and how to flash it? The same as SE Firmware in above tutorial, using Flashtool?
2)MAKE A FULL WIPE
3)FLASH THE ROM
This thing I understand. I flash the ROM just like kernel before.
4)FLASH XPERIA HOME ,GAPPS AND REBOOT ,LET THE ROM SETTLE AGAIN REBOOT TO RECOVERY
5) FINALLY FLASH ADDON PACK
So this flash is a thing that confuses me.
Thank you and sorry for such a newbie questions.
Well the kernel you must flash using the flashtool. You can get the kernel here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29001053. The rom, home, gapps and addon you must flash it using CWM via install .zip files. The guide is actually simple if you once understand

Thanks! Since FXP135's download link is broken, I will use Amin Cm9-P6005 as Kernel. Just one question: from the tutorial about flashing, there is only one SE Firmware 3.0.1 UK version, but somewhere I found it more. Is it important or not? I'm from Croatia (Europe) so will there be some problems?
EDIT: nvm, root and installing xrecovery was successful I just installed audio stuttering fix for now, and I will flash kernel and ICS when I get my backup phone. Thanks once again
Now I see that there is "video recording" and also "8mpx" under BUGS. What does it mean!?? I use camera almost every day so video recording and taking pictures with 8 Mpx is must-have. I use Vignette to take pictures and stock SE's app for recording video.
And I saw in Amin's kernel that wi-fi sometimes doesn't work. Wi-fi and tethering (hotspot) are also a must-have options. Please confirm that these bugs are still active because I will give up from this ROM if it's right.
If not, I will flash it today, or these days. And I saw something about baseband but I don't understand. I rooted the phone and installed CWM and now can I just flash Amin's kernel, do a full wipe and then install home, gapps and addon?

Dear reader,
I've currently been using Cyanomod for 2.3.7 Gingerbread.
My phone is rooted and everything (which took a little while )
Everything is running perfectly fine, but i would like to update my phone to android 4.0+ (whatever the lastest compatible version might be)
How should i go about this?
Do i basically uninstall everything and start from scratch or is there an easy method to quickly update my phone to android 4.
Kind Regards and Thank you for your time!
I believe the answer us first to backup your apps with titanium backup if you need them. Then go to recovery and backup your current Rom. (always be sure to do this). from recovery wipe factory reset and dalvik cache. Then install your new Rom from zip.
You cannot install an android 4.0 + over another version. Always backup and wipe.

Rom's are pre rooted (expect stock, stock BASED roms ARE pre-rooted), once you've installed the rom through cwm, it will be rooted and ready.

If your bootloader is unlocked, you can easily flash a custom kernel (Based on ics, so it'll be compatible with ics rom) And boot into recovery, and flash a custom rom based on ics.
One last question, since i'm having trouble finding compatible roms.
Which one would any of you, recommend for me to use ?
I have a ST18i and i'd like the lastest compatible rom.
Thanks so much for the fast reponses and ofcourse the help.
Kind Regards,
Since you're using CyanogenMod 7 I would recommend you to use CyanogenMod 9.1 i.e. FXP 138 is the best in my experience.

If your finding trouble with compatible roms are you saying your getting bootloops when trying them?, because a different Android Version requires a different kernel, So if you haven't or forget to flash the kernel recommended or provided then that would possibly be where your compatibility issues lye as you will get bootloops if you don't and you are changing version. As Mikii suggested earlier.

Ahhh that must be it then.. I've been using the same kernel for quite some time now because it was quite a hassle to flash it. Different roms come with different kernels (at times). I'll have to figure out how to flash kernels again. Gonna check around the forums to see if i can find a suitable thread.

The fastest way to flash a kernel is to use the program called flashtool, click on the lightening bolt, select Fastboot mode, then select kernel to flash find the kernel you want to flash and it should be done within literally 2 seconds. once Flashtool gives you the all clear, disconnect your phone from usb, restart phone, and there you go, the old kernel will be overwritten, and so will that kernel's cwm version, with the one from the new kernel.
Try FXP138

Hey,
Everything is installed and running, however i am wondering about just one thing.
Whenever i reboot my phone i get, right after imputting my sim code, a Unlock Network SIM message.
What is this and how can i solve it?
Regards,
(oops just realized i made a double post, apologies!)
Hey Guys,
I'm kinda lost and haven't found anything the forum that remotely resembles my problem.
I have a rooted EVO 4G LTE with CM10 JB 4.1. I'm sick of the ****ty camera picture quality and constant freezing while taking pictures (just freezes then the phone reboots) so i'm trying to go to a more of a stock rom that I'll just customize with launchers etc.
My question is, since I can't update the OTA from the rom, do i need to flash the new kernel and the stock rooted rom and if so what order? The other question I had if I do need to install the new kernel does it have to be in the root of the internal SD or external SD?
I tried flashing some of the newer stock rooted roms and none of them would work. I would get the message (bad) when trying to update through recovery. I thought at first that just meant a corrupted zip file but when trying 3 different roms that all said the same thing I thought maybe it could be because the kernel is different then what I have.
At any rate, if anyone could help with a link to some kind of guide (if anyone knows of one) or just some general directions that would be insanely helpful.
Thanks for any help offered!
Download the Rom of your choice. Pull the boot img from that Rom. That is the kernel you need to flash. The fact that your asking this question I would reccomend using the app " flash image gui". You can flash the boot img from your current Rom then immediately boot into recovery and flash the Rom.

Haha, yeah. Thanks! I like to dabble but I wouldn't call myself any kind of pro. I just wasn't sure if the rom would stay stable if I updated the kernel will still in the OS. Anyways, thanks again! :good:

I never flashed from ICS that I recall. However, you could Odin back to stock. Flash a good stable froyo and try to flash up from there.
I don't remember now if GB boot loader is 100% required but I have it on mine.
I'm getting ready to take an exam, if you haven't got it sorted before I return, I'll help you get running.
Thanks for the reply, I do have the gb bootloaders and I tried going back to stock and still no luck. I get a soft brick every time.

Which ICS ROM are you coming from, and are you doing full wipe?
I had a chance to think about it, and I had trouble getting up to 4.1 the first time I tried. I ended up stepping up gradually.
Odin'd to stock then went up to bionic, skipped GB, went up to latest CM ICS I believe... Then from there onto JB. Been fine since.
Its been a while but that's best as my memory cares to serve me.
I don't think its a real common problem, but occasionally something doesn't jive somewhere.
Hi,
Its not necessary BUT it will always work Odin back to stock and continuing. Once I tried to flash ICZen from FROYO but no luck. Then I ODIN back to stock then CM7 in the middle and ICS on top of it and it WORKED. I have flashed GB bootloaders to get easy key mapping (Anyway u have to flash it if it is required by the ROM) I have flahed JB 4.2.2 Avatar ROM on top of ICZen which has worked for me. woody has a [Guide] How to install ICS **EVERYTHING you need to know how to install them** so you can get an idea Sometimes you have to flash the ROM twice b/c CWM updation
Always do a CLEAN flash (FULL wipe) before flashing a new ROM
Hope u would get JB ROM flashed successfully
