[Q] Please Help me to backup my ROM & install ICS - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Hi Guys! I have bought this xperia neo from O2 UK and they blocked ICS update, as you all know the issue. But I really want to install ICS .587 after taking backup my current ROM & so that if ICS doesn't function well I can revert to my current ROM.
I have researched for two weeks about taking backup my current ROM but all I found on a site that the file system version: WORLD-1-8_4.0.2.A.0.62 is the difficult one to backup.
As I believe, for the developers nothing is difficult, they always come with a solution. Can I get help from any of you please??? If you could tell me the way to backup current ROM & install ICS that would be a blessing for me. Thanks in advance.

Root ur phone, instalk cwm, goto cwm > backup & restore > backup done

The only method I know off to backup your Rom As it is now
Is to take a Nandroid backup through Cwm
But you need to root your phone for that!
Read some sticky threads on how to root!
You'll get it done easily!

Come on man why don't you use Google or xda's wonderful search feature.
The biggest misconception of you guys is that you think we're all sitting out here to help you out.
Not that people here don't help but why don't you use your brain for a change.
Or even better use GOOGLE.

[Q] How to backup apps without using titanium backup?

I am a noob so plz don't mind if my question sounds silly..
I am using an unlocked X10 on stock SE 2.3.3 ROM with DooMKernel v0.6 for unlocked bootloaders.. I want to switch to the feralab v13.2 volt rom.. But in the installation guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24106417&postcount=1884) it says:
Before installation please make a backup of your contacts/apps because rom will make a full wipe of your phone.(DONT use Titanium backup to restore DATA for this rom or you may get force closes..)

1)Just make a backup of current ROM with xRecovery and when You flash the feralab do advanced restore in xRecovery. I think that feralab is stock based ROM so there shouldn't be any problems.
2)Other way is to use my tool. Just check the signature

[Q] how to install kernel & custom rom neo V

Hi,
i am a newbie here. with help of the forum, i was able to root my xperia neo V running stock ICS. now that i want to try custom ROM - Polish Blood...
the topic for the same only gives an overview...
can somebody please guide me about going further with this...
i have downloaded the required files from the links on the topic
my neo V is rooted with a locked boot loader and have installed a few apps recommended (Titanium Backup, ROM Toolbox & ROM Manager)
do i need to install a kernel (if yes, which) or can i just install the ROM?
any help is appreciated
First you gotta unlock your bootloader to go further.

what would you suggest, should i go with the official Sony method or is there some other way around. i don't want to lose the warranty, just in case something goes wrong. since, you are using a neo V and even the ROM... what are the major positives & negatives?
thanks
Sorry,is not the right post, but how is the performance of the phone after the ICS update? Please send your answer at [email protected]. Thanks in advance!

hi,
after updating to ICS (the first release) it was good only after i got root,
thanks to the developers here at xda
but i would still like to go with the Polish Blood ROM to enjoy the free memory and speedier, responsive games & applications (hope so)
hi,
my phone doesn't boot beyond the SONY logo now
please help......
omg
all that you can do now is to reflash your phone with a generic firmware using flashtool. Such threads are available in xda forum. look for it follow it. hope it works.

I remember how I thought my phone was bricked
You can do it easily now. Just take someone's help for test point (if you choose) or official is easy.

Hehe
Yea a year after even I would feel childish in asking such questions
Btw yea things have become much more easy and reliable...
And I'm considering official as I am not finding any guy who can do the unofficial unlock for me...
Wish I could have met you or communicated with you through some other medium like chats.... So that I don't brick by doin unlock by unofficial method... I know it sounds noobish but can't really help it.... As this being my 1st droid... Don't wanna ruin it and then spend money....

I did it SUCCESSFULLY!!!:laugh:
Here are the steps..
1.Turn off your device.
2.Take battery out and dip it in water for 10 years!
3.Now insert back the battery and then hang your phone from a fan and start the fan.
4.While the fan is rotating in full speed connect your mobile to pc.
5.And then flash the kernel and rom using unflashtool.
6.Then do a full flip from a 10000000000 ft. building
Then u'll be successful(in bricking your device):silly:

I'm most cases your phone maybe stuck at bootloop (but in some roms, maybe they don't even install without proper kernel) but if u flash the stock ftf file, then root and install cwm u can restore it...

Xperia mini PRO Custom ROM black screen

Hello,
I have Xperia Mini PRO sk17i 2.3.4 with zergush root and CWM (x-parts) with locked bootloader. I tried install this Custom ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991371
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1726863
After installing is only black screen (no sony logo, just BLACK SCREEN and nothing happening)without bootanim. Just nothing. I wiped all cache/dalvik cache and /system folder. What i did wrong? Thanks !
You are in GB and those are for ICS. If you're on ICS, check if you did all the wipes, formatting system is highly important

No i relocked it because Flashtool said something about missing file. I don´t understand much. CWM is part of kernel (now i don´t mean X-parts CWM which i already have) ? I need this for warranty, because if i need repair phone i must clean all edits like root and relock bootloader.
Thanks again for response!
Ok.... If something goes wrong feel free to search the forum you'll find so many to help you......enjoy
