You mean real ics? Okay please update to ics like explained here first. After that get cwm.
Download the rom and put it on sd card.
1. Reboot in cwm
2. "install zip from sd card" > "choose zip"> choose the installation zip
3. wipe data/factory reset
4. Wipe cache partition
5. advanced > wipe dalvik cache
6. Reboot
That's it. Should work

No, you can't install cusrom ics with gb kernel, you should upgrade stock rom ics, root, install cwm, wipe everything, install cusrom real ics, done..

I just meant as you said wipe all that's wrong. Don't wipe or format /system. He just shouldn't do anything like format system. Just that he doesn't think "wipe all" = "system,data,cache,dalvik cache, etc"

[Q] How to install this rom? xD

Hi guys, you can tell me how to install this rom? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012666
What kernel should I use for better results?
I think like any other rom...
Put it into your sd-card, reboot to CWM and do the wipes(Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system) and the install the .zip
But first of all you should flash the kernel which is given in the download(together with the rom)
AW: [Q] How to install this rom? xD
I think he better should not format system
Just wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and advanced -> wipe dalvik cache!
Sent from my Nexus 7 running Android 4.2.1
I'm doing it everytime I flash a new rom
Nothing wrent wrong :fingers-crossed:
Any ICS kernel is compatible. I strongly recommend MESA Hybrid v3.5 or LuPuS v3. I also recommend to format system before flashing new ROM. I've done it over 100 times safely. You'll avoid a lot of problems.

I think he should first do it without wiping system and incase it was required and he stuck in a bootloop, then he can simply do the process again with wiping system
Press THANKS if I helped,
Regards,
AJ
I tried the rom(with rage kernel 3.2), and always go in bootloop
make sure u already have ur ROM on sdcard and the others (wifi-fix.zip or whatever)
on CMW, u can safely wipe /system when u wanna flash new ROM, but REMEMBER not to reboot your phone AFTER u wipe /system. if u do this, u will see "new boot kernel animation" a.k.a BOOTLOOP.
after wipe /system,/cache,/dalvik,/data,/sd-ext then next thing is install ur ROM.
if u using TWRP, its not necessary to wipe /system bcoz TWRP will wiping /system by itself when u install new ROM.
yes, i sent from my phone using Xda Premium, so what?

Hi,
its up to you! or you reflash your rom but in CWM when you are about to do wipe factory default you can go in mount/unmount menu u will see format sd card but to do that u need to flash rom from flashtool cuz if u format sd card u wont find back zip file to reflash then if u need space from ram take a task killer and don t forget to make wipe cache and dalvik cache when, rom is installed.
hope it ll help :victory:

Well i don't think i can do it with flashtool, i mean, i have a locked bootloader. So what can i do? i move the rom to sd, then enter on CWM, wipe before install rom, and after...when have i format?

Hi...
Not sure bootloader unlocked or not, have something to do with flashtool
You can flash a stock rom and a stock kernel with flashtool without unlocking your bootloader,
BUT you CANNOT flash custom roms and custom kernels with locked bootloader!
So youre right you move rom to sd, you reboot recovery mode; then you wipe factory default, wipe cache,
then you reboot recovery mode install zip from sd card select your rom and wait
IF the wipe erase the rom from sd card (wich i really don t think so) then you install flashtool
and you flash rom from it but the rom that you gonna flash with that soft has to be a .ftf file
but you not there do the first step then tell me what happens

Download the rom again and transfer it to your phone. Flash the kernel from inside the rom.zip, then flash the rom after performing wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache

No, you have to flash it using cwm
Could it be you wiped /system before flashing? Because you shouldn't do that!

The kernel is the boot.img inside the zip. If you want to know how to flash it, check my guide on how to install a custom rom/kernel
And you could do the following:
1. Open the zip
2. Go to META-INF/com/google/android/
3. Open the updater-script using notepad ++
4. Delete the first 3 lines saying "assert getprop"
5. Save it and repack the zip
6. Flash it
Maybe it works then! :good:

go to this post and flash the stock firmware via odin.
for installing custom rom, you will need root and cwm
go to recovery mode
choose install zip from sd card
choose the cwm file
this will install the cwm.
now wipe data and cache
go to advanced menu and wipe dalvik cache
then go to choose zip from sdcaed and select the rom
please make sure that you are using a proper custom rom file meant for your phone.
hit thanks if it helped

Download your xperia mini pro ginger bread ftf
Flash it using flashtool
And boot up to gingerbread os. The touch will work now
Now flash the kernel and then the rom of your choice.
When ever your touch stops working. Just chill and flash the official ginger bread firmware (ftf file) by sony

use the ics-ftf gb is outdated. also flashing stock.ics.ftf is a requirement for LX.
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?tstart=0
after u flashed t just install LX like this (dont do more ; not less !)
- place ROM.zip & gapps ON SD
- power off device, flash KERNEL inside ROM zip
- in mounts & storage format: /system /data /cache
- install ROM & gapps
-boot that sh*t XD
good luck too u.
