Hi all,
I have followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837273
everything went good, I have successfully install kernel and CM10. I started phone without sim, wifi is okey and everything is perfect. But when I start phone with SIM card, enter pin, than nothing happens. I have tryed to manualy select carier, but phone just gave me pop up, that is unable to register within my carrier. Does anyone has same error? Could someone help me?

Did you unlock your bootloader in order to flash this, or did you already have that unlocked before?

Yes, I have unlocked bootloader, according to guide which is in kernel thread...
I think I will try to lock bootloader, load stock kerner and stock rom and try it again ...

first go back to stock kernel and rom and then relock the bootloader.. not the other way around. You'll run into all sorts of trouble if you lock the bootloader while on a custom kernel.

Do a repair with SEUS ( or SUS, since Ericsson no longer takes part ) or PC Companion, and then relock the bootloader using the Repair-button in S1Tool.

So,I've rooted and unlock its bootloader for a long time.I also install my phone ClockWorkMod Recovery and etc. other root stuff (My android is 2.3.4 .58 Firmware)
So,today I thought I will finally relock my bootloader as my phone will receive a new ICS official from Sony Ericsson anytime from now until end of June,so I download a relock bootloader ftf file (I've searched it in the internet,and download the right file).After I flashed it (I've enabled USB debugging before shut down my phone and I also sure my phone is in flash mode during flash),my phone WON'T boot up...I don't know what happen,so I'm currently fixing it by using WotanServer,and it downloading in progress now (My x10 Mini Pro bricked 5 times,and I fix it 5 times by myself without whining )
So,I wanna ask you guys :
Why my phone won't boot up?Although the bootloader is locked by Flashtool,but it won't boot up I've stock FIRMWARE and stock KERNEL in my phone...never modified it,only root,unlock its bootloader and flash CWM in it...
Thanks for reading I hope you can answer my question

Uhm, since WotanServer installs also stock kernel back...doesn't it require unlocked bootloader?
I am not sure, but that would make sense with all other kernel installations also.
Unlock bootloader, install firmware and kernel with WotanServer again, boot and relock bootloader.

Thanks for the information man,by the way,I just restore my phone using WotanServer and WotanServer will always be my trust to restore my phone if it got a brick or something like that
I restore my phone with Firmware .58 and I rooted it using ZergRush,and update it using OTA [My phone automatically bootloader locked] (I install US Generic xD even I live in Malaysia,so I got Sk17a instead of Sk17i) and now I got .62 firmware with root access in my phone

Yep,you are right...
Because,WotanServer and PC Companion and SEUS use OTHER method which I (even other ROM developer maybe?) don't know how the file work with the flashing without needed bootloader unlocked right?

PC Companion doesn't work with unlocked bootloader at all.
You might be correct, as I have never tried update/repair via PC Companion.

I know, the point is that it's not necessary for flashing stock kernel bootloader to be unlocked.I think it's pretty obvious, if it didn't update with locked bootloader then sony would have to force users to unlock bootloader or give unlocked phones or never update kernel.
hello guys..
i have my x10 mini can't detected my sim card..
this problem comes when i try to get Custom Rom and unlock bootlader and flash my kernel..
i have flashed my phone with flashtool and SEUS,
but my phone still not detected sim card yet..
i really need some solution for my mini..
thanks guys..
Your bootloader-unlock failed
Flash back to stock rom (Use SEUS or PC Companion to do a repair ) and relock your bootloader afterwards.
If you're lucky your network capabilities will come back.

Big thanks to SmG67,
finally my phone has been detected my sim card again..
i used s1tool for repair my minis..
is s1tool only way to relock bootloader?
probably not, but it's the easiest by far.

how to fix no sim card using s1tool? im using x10 mini running 2.1.1.C
Ok. I have searched for hours and hours with no result. I have a Sony Ericsson X10a ATT labeled phone. i got it booting to the Xperia logo and no further. I was able to get the global generic x10i rom flashed to it so it would at least boot into android. it does not have a signal and says the sim will not work with att network. what ive done:
Flashed Global generic x10i 2.1a rom with flashtool 0.8 (the only stock firmware link that works)
Rooted with flashtool
s1tool reports NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE
Ive tried to force SPCC to flash stock rom
Update service says its up to date
I can get it into flashmode no problem, it does boot normally into android, i can get into recovery with cwm5
it has no signal as of now.
Flashtool reports it as rooted.
I need to get this thing at least back to stock and working with a north american at&t sim card. if i can get a custom rom, great, if not ill deal with stock. if its SOL, its going thru the chipper
my hat is off to developers and programmers but I can do without the "you should of done this or that." i really appreciate any help. i just need to get it working thanks in advance

I guess you are on 2.1 firmware. So the baseband is right.

I the problem is you tried to unlock bootloader for a sim locked phone and because of that it has messed up.
AS you have got NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE in s1tool you shouldnt have tried to unlock bootloader,
I am sorry I have no other ideas for it.
I advise to contact in this thread.

No problem.
If you have NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE in s1tool then you shouldnt unlock bootloader. If u do so you lose your signal which cannot be recovered by usual flashing methods like going to stock.
Hi guys !
I think i have a problem with my xperia ray I`ve tried to flash a custom rom, but during that process there was an error and bricked my phone. I managed to bring it back to life, flashed stock 4.0.4 rom, but now i get "please insert SIM card and restart your phone"
The funny thing is that before i bricked it the bootloader unlock allowed was YES, and now it switched to NO.
Can someone help me ? Is there anything i can do ?

You must have flashed a carriers specific firmware for ray. Get this generic one and try - http://www.mediafire.com/?pp48w8v9z1adg59
And could you please tell us what the error was and how exactly you "bricked" it? Also, try going into fastboot mode and see if you can still flash a custom kernel.
Thank you for your answer ! bricking it was very easy ... I tried to flash CM 10, wipe - factory reset / cache, and during the new rom install it was an “Status 7″ Error in ClockworkMod Recovery. After this I used s1tool to bring it back to life and flashed a new rom, which I though was the right one (ST18i_4.1.B.0.587_CE_1252-3693). I`ll try to flash the rom you pointed and see what happens.
Nope, that rom didn`t helped, still the same problem.
The phone was bough form vodafone spain, had a vodafone custom rom, no SIM LOCK and bootloader unlock allowed : YES, but after i did that mess, and install a new rom i get bootloader unlock allowed: NO and "please insert SIM card and restart your phone", no mater if there is a SIM CARD inserted or not ...

Why did you use s1tool to "bring back to life"? Maybe you (re)locked your bootloader? What exactly did you with s1tool to bring your phone back to life?
Btw: The status7 error caused by updater-sricpt in cm10 rom zip.
If you searched this Q thread (or cm10 thread) there is a solution for that. (copy the updater-script from CM rom zip edit with notepat++ and delete first lines till mount. Copy back, overwrite old updater-script and the cm10 flash don't shows "status7 error")

now your phone is on locked bootloader and sim locked too?
It says: bootloader unlock allowed: no?
Before you unlocked it was simfree? You wrote, that the phone is voda/Spain you have voda simcard?
Have you tried other ftf? (not for Centar Europe - CE)
Edit:
- Have you cheched your baseband? see post
Yes the phone was both locked on bootloader (bootloader unlocked alowed: NO ) and SIM LOCK ( not sure about this, since i don`t have the Voda/Spain sim anymore, but all the other ones where useless)
Anyway, i took the easy way and used WotanServer to solve my problem. Now the bootloared changed back to "bootloader unlocked alowed: YES" and i can use any SIM card.
I think my mistake was using s1tool after the Status 7 Error in ClockworkMod Recovery. I guess s1tool changed my bootloader status... if i had used just flashtool and do just a stock rom flash... But we learn as long as we live :silly:
Thank you all for you`re answers !

You unlock the bootloader to enable boot custom kernels not made by Sony. If you relock it won't boot custome kernels because the bootloader is "locked" to boot Sony kernels only.
You wank kitkat, bootloader must be unlockedm and there is no real reason you will want to relock your phone.

Well one thing is that I cannot update my PC Companion to a newer version so I cannot restore a backup and I read that this is because of the unlocked bootloader. Also there are occasional reboots of the phone with no particular reason.

PC companion is updated regardless of your bootloader, it will update without a phone being connected.
I don't think you can restore backups to custom non-tock-based ROMs with PCC anyway, you must choose stock(or custom stock-based) or custom ROM.
If you want to re-lock, you must use stock ROM and kitkat does not work with it.
