so, as title says i am getting my neo (not neo V) tomorrow.
i see diferent ways to unlock the bootloader, also a ways to relock it.
as i dont know what version it will be what is the safest path to having CM7 on it?
is there something i should know/be aware of before starting to flash it. (shiny brick on first day yay! no.) like what isnt working properly (bravia on cm7?) 3d games on cm7? battery drain?
any info would be cool. thx in advance!
do not flash android 2.3.2 it will brick your phone.

This tuts are for neo V...
I know it can be equal, but we (especially newbies) were always in doubt because the title refers to Neo V!
I am with Qwerty123 \m/. I think it is important to someone making a complete tutorial which gathers all the information. It's just my opinion.

make a little search on the forum , write xperia neo test point
just follow this guide
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_Neo:_Full_Update_Guide
that's how i did it oh, and i suggest you flash CM 7.1.0.1, as the CM 7.2 is missing a few things yet, and CM 7.1.0.2 often ends up in a software bootloop

or, even better, flash THIS!

yeah, it's 7.2, i know, but it's CM with SE visuals! can't get much better!

Don't flash CM7,it's pretty much abandoned by the devs. Instead wait for CM9 which should be ready soon
So i have a LWW (WT19i), I recently rooted it and flashed it.
I installed this rom about two weeks ago with CWM
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1490166
i currently have my phone rooted and using MIUI, roottoolbox, titaniumbackup and stuff....
The weird thing is that, in the description of the ROM it says that unlocked bootloader is required,
but it was working perfectly with my locked bootloader, until yesterday.
The phone started crashing and freezing out of nowhere, apparently it had something to do with overclocking it
because I disabeled the overclocking and it worked a bit faster but just... not like it was working a week ago
it freezes sometimes, google chrome takes like two eternitys to load.
maybe it is because of the bootloader thingy??? i don't know...
and why did it work in the first place?!?!
does it mean CM works also?
so i guess the only thing i have to do is get a full wipe and install the ROM again? or maybe some other ROM
i really want to install CM9 it seems really interesting, but.... freaking bootloader....
So i'm kind of lost... i'm really lost.... apparently i can't use CM9.1 or MIUI because i dont have unlocked bootloader, but they work anyhow?
and i can't unlock it, i really have no idea how to do it. i've read like 158932 different tutorials and they are all different
some tell me i can't do it, it won't ever work and i should drown in my tears for all eternity, and others tell me i have to download freaking eclipse
and start programing in java...
i just get lost with that many incoherence....
I really want to install a nice and comfortable rom so i can rest and use the phone
im just tired of flashing and rooting and reflashing.
....CM9... 10?... looks nice.....
so, are there any sugestions ???? what should i do?
should i just reinstall MIUI what if it gets slow again ?
also... can someone please for the love of Godzilla explain me how can i unlock my bootloader ?? if it is possible
you guys probably get this a lot but sorry for my poor english...
thanks a lot
bye

Does you phone has Sim lock? ok so u can check this by hiting the *#*#7378423#*#* and go to service info/ SIM lock. see the pic? if it has any lock, you can try this it may work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1675718 good luck and anything just let us know
From my opinion its impossible to unlock bootloader if its not allowed. If you want the taste of custom rom then change the phone

People taking this unbranded thing too seriously. the only difference in unbranded version is the different cid it's like a access code since we don't have a ics ruu for that cid we had to s off our phones (breaking the access code so it accept any brand) that's the difference, other than that all Amaze 4G's are the very same so yea, I did the same way chevy did

Back to the point,
Now for the 2nd time I'm telling you, you have to do the s off process again. At the end of the process if it asks you if you want the jbear hboot choose yes.
This isn't rocket science, you aren't programming a satellite, nor are you short circuiting your phone, so calm down people. If you are that worried and paranoid about it you need to leave xda and get an iPhone or something that doesn't challenge your mind and isn't technologically advanced. So if anyone else is reading this that's clueless about this process just keep that it mind.

How are you guys doing this are you using kitchen or android sdk. I am a noob when it comes to this stuff, but I have done a little research. Most of the guides I come across are using custom Roms for the example.

Everything runs great except that Goggle Keyboard kept force closing. I fixed it by using ES File Explorer to reinstall it but it happened again when I rebooted. I wound up removing it. Great job, though.

I have just posted a couple of hours ago asking why my new Cyanogenmod 10.2 rom would be freezing, and I think the problem is to do with my eMMC chip. I have one that suffers from the 'sudden death' problem.. So I've posted this in a new thread as it's kinda a different question..
Anyway, Samsung have released a fix, but I can't find any instructions ANYWHERE on how to apply it.
I've found this on the cyanogenmod wiki http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/EMMC_Bugs, but that simply links me to a github repo of the code, with no instructions on how to apply the fix.
Could someone direct me to some instructions, or talk me through how to apply the fix?
Thanks,
Luke
Firstly, Title is misleading. Second. Its not the sudden death chip tat gives u lag. I have the sds chip too and when I ran cm 10.2 I have NO LAG.

Well at the moment, I've only got the initial apps included with Cyanogenmod, and the Google Apps, which I installed through CWM..
I can't even make it into the market to download the eMMC Checker app to see if that is still the problem, as the phone freezes before I'm able to search..

I sure hope not.. Exactly this time last year my phone effectively died.. I woke up one morning and my phone was telling me that I had encryption problems (I had never done anything remotely like encryption on my phone previously), so I had to have my phone sent off, and when I got it back, they said they replaced the motherboard..

It's hard to say exactly when, but it was after having my phone sent off.. I had found that a way to fix it was to reduce the amount of free space on my internal sd card, so I got a dummy file generator app, that nearly filled the sd card, which seemed to stop the problem.. However I am not able to do that now, because the phone freezes before I'm able to search the play store..
I would ring optus (my phone carrier), however now that I've flashed a custom rom, my warranty is void, so they're not going to do anything to help me..

It's hard to say exactly when, but it was after having my phone sent off.. I had found that a way to fix it was to reduce the amount of free space on my internal sd card, so I got a dummy file generator app, that nearly filled the sd card, which seemed to stop the problem.. However I am not able to do that now, because the phone freezes before I'm able to search the play store..

I don't think they will be interested in that though, as I've rooted the phone, and installed a custom rom.. Also, I've had the phone for over 12 months..

Ok cool, I will have a look at that..
I managed to get into the play store and download the eMMC Brickbug Check app, and it's telling me that it's still a problem, so Cyanogenmod 10.2 doesn't have the fix incorporated into it..
I would still like to find how to apply this kernel patch, as I reckon it will definitely help..
CM 10.2 does indeed have the fix incorporated, the checker only checks if you have the chip that's affected and nothing more. It will not tell you if you have a fix applied

I see.. Then that's a bit more concerning that my phone is still freezing. It doesn't do it as much now though, it seems to have 'settled', and now only freezes every now and then.. But if the fix has been applied, I don't see a reason why my phone would freeze at all :/
