Extract the kernel (boot.img) from the rom.zip
Flash it via fastboot mode
Goto cwm, & wipe everything
Flash the rom

A clean wipe always includes
Format system
Format data
Format cache
Wipe data
Wipe cache
Wipe Dalvik cache
And you may install any Rom provided you use right kernel

Hi there! I have been searching in this forum on how to properly install CM based ROms by FXP, here are lots of posts there but of different methods that really bothers me and confuses me. Some says, do not wipe system, other says, make a full wipe first.
My question is, is the installation procedure on installing CM 7.2 the same as installing other custom ROMs such as Spartan and HASA?(Unlocked BL already) st15i
Is it just :
1.) Flash .62 official GB firmware from sony FTF
2.) Flash the provided kernel by FXP for cm 7.2(FXP 130 I guess is the most stable release, according to comments)
3.) boot to recovery and make a full wipe this way:
3.a Wipe data/Factory Reset
3.b Wipe cache/partition
3.c Go to mount/storage and format /system, /data, /cache
3.d Go to Advance and Wipe dalvik cache and Battery stats
4.) FLASH ROM
5.) Reboot
Is this the proper way of installing the ROM? To those who have already installed CM 7.2 there, please help. And also please refer me to the most stable build of cm 7.2 if fxp 130 is not the most stable.
Thanks and more power!

Thank you for answering. Do you mean wipe cache/partition and dalvik cache only? That's all? No need to format system?
Do I need to flash stck .62 first?

sorry, next time I'll be careful... Btw i think i did all of them but what does "wipe system" mean? (factory reset??)
ODIN to your rescue ... download a stock ROM and flash it via ODIN.
OR
Flash Dorimanx 7.45 via ODIN and flash your ROM later.

Flash the recovery from the computer and try again. You don't have to reboot where you did, you have to continue with the steps.
Did you increase your system partition?
Or it wouldn't work

Sola stuck at Sony boot logo
Hi,
Placed the ROM.zip in sd card and did a full wipe. In my CWM, there is no option to go back, hence rebooted the system to install the ROM after full wipe. My phone got stuck at Sony logo and even unable to access CWM. Please help!
I did the following steps mentioned in the ROM page of XDA to install the custom ROM on my phone.
1. Flash boot.img from .zip via Fastboot ---- LEFT OUT THIS ONLY STEP BY MISTAKE and done the subsequent steps.
2. Enter CWM
3. Make a full wipe:
4. Wipe Data/Factory Reset
5. Wipe Cache
6. Wipe Dalvik Cache
7. format /data (advanced)
8. format /dache (advanced)
9. format /system (advanced)
-Flash ROM. --- YET TO FLASH THE ROM.
I'm unable to access CWM. I can't power off, I can only restart, but getting stuck at Sony logo everytime. It would be very kind if you could help me in getting the phone to work as normal.
Thanks,
Irfan

The recovery version doesn't really matter. For stock kernel both xrec and cwm are available (I recommend xrec), but the nAa custom kernels all have cwm preinstalled.
The order of wiping data, dalvik-cache and cache partition doesn't matter at all, pick whatever you want .

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.
