Hi..
I have problem with my X10i. I've flashed some custom rom which is not stock based, but now problem is my PC don't recgonize phone. Before flashing I had stock rom and everything was working fine with USB. I can charge phone via usb and normal charger, USB debbuging is ON but on PC nothing happens.
Other problem is I can't flash any other rom because I got error in recovery:
Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.
It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.
Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages.
Does anyone have solution how could I fix this ?? plss
The file you flashed from xrecovery is made for ClockWorkMod recovery.
For some kernels you press volume down for CWM.

Sorry I was backwards
You are using CWM but need xrecovery.
Not all kernels support both. Normally xrecovery is back button on startup and CWM is volume down. However if kernel has no xrecovery the CWM will use back button.
Xrecovery will look something like this

I have this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846760
And kernel is:
2.6.29-FXP
[email protected] #1
I couldn't find a definite yes. However have you tried holding all other buttons on boot, volumes, menu, home. Sometimes kernels have more than 1 built in that use other buttons.
Some CWM recoverys have an option in the menus to reboot into xrecovery.
If all failed then flash DooMKerneL with flashtool and use back button to get xrecovery.
Also if the Rom your trying to flash is a stock based Rom, it will require a stock kernel like DooMKerneL.
Most times roms flashed through xrecovery are stock based, as xrecovery is a stock based recovery. CWM recovery is a Cyanogen Mod custom recovery for CM custom based roms (like FXP, the kernel you have)
Again that's generally.

Hmmm..I've tryed every button and I always get in CWM. I have option in the menu to reboot into recovery but in the CWM again.
The problem is I can't flash DooMKernel because my PC doesn't recongize the phone, I can only charge it but don't know why, before flashing this custom rom (Techdevil rom) everything was working fine with USB. pls help
Try to mount the sd card or usb from cwm, with phone plugged into pc. If it see the card copy another CM based Rom file and try to flash.
If it won't mount take out sd card put in something else to copy file.
In the first post of the recovery thread in my signature look for the 'click here to find out how to setup flashtool ' button and read it. It may help. The phone doesn't have to be plugged till it asks for it when flashing.

I will try that tommorow..
Few days ago i turned off the phone and hold back button then I plugged usb cable, green light turned on but flash tool didn't recongize it.

Im trying up my mini to GingerDX (follow stelios97's guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200675)
My FW is 2.1.1.A.0.6 already
My Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
I did root, xRecovery and unlock BL my mini successully.
Now I only have to flash nAa 08 Kernel to be able to install GingerDX, I use flashtool 0.5.3 to flash E10_nAa-08_2.6.29.6-nAa-08.ftf to my phone in order:
- copy file E10_nAa-08_2.6.29.6-nAa-08.ftf to Flashtool\firmwares
- run flashtool
- run flash -> flashmode and choose E10 nAn-08 -> OK
- turned off phone, hold back and plug in
- flashing
- done
- brick
I tried 3 time and always be brick, I have to plug out the battery cab to turn off then flash firmware 2.1.1.A.0.6 again.
So what did I miss? Is there any other way to flash my kernel to nAa-08?
What do you mean by "brick" ?
Are you able to enter the CWM menu ? (click Back when boot logo appears)
My problem:
After flash that kernel, my phone reboot, I see one nAa kernel logo (some triangle and circlea with black and red color) then my display be dark and nothing happen, no boot, no led when plug cab, just like a brick. I have to plug out battery cab to turn off my phone. If I turn it on, everything will happen like that. Only one way that plug out battery cab to turn off then flash stock FW 2.1.1.A.0.6
I tried flash nAa 10 kernel but still be brick like that
My opinion is that this kernel is not for stock ROM.
After having flashed this kernel you have to flash a CM7 ROM (GingerDX or MiniCM7).
To do so, you have to have copied the zip file of the ROM on your SDCard, then flash the kerner using flashtool, then enter to CWM by pressing the back button (press several times) as soon as you see the nAa kernel logo, then wipe all and select your zip to upgrade.
I didnt install CWM, can use xRecovery instead of CWM to install GingerDX.zip in SD card?

If you flash nAa kernel it will install CWM. Use this to flash the ROM.

Hello, I own an Xperia Mini ST15i, and I have successfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone. Now I would like to flash a custom kernel and a custom ROM. I have read really a lot on this forum, but "the more I read the more I am confused". I have never done this before (aside from rooting my Nook Simple Touch with Touchnooter). Thats why I need your confirmation about the steps I am going to do next on my phone, because I don't want to mess things up.
This is my current phone configuration:
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9-perf [email protected] #1
Build number: 4.1.B.0.431
I would like to flash this kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709032
and this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705255
I downloaded all the files,including the new wifi modules, and copied them into the SD card of the phone. At this point I am asking for help, how to proceed, step by step.
On my computer, I have installed the Android SDK and Flashtool 0.9, on the phone I installed the ROM manager from Clockworkmod, premium version.
Thank you for your help.
hmmm...since you have download all files i suggest you flash the kernel first using flashtool....it got per-rooted and CWM along with it...this can help you alot....
after flashing kernel you can boot into CWM, make backup before you start flashing ROM that you have download....
Flash Kernel
Go To CWR
Do Wipe for all Data/Cache/System (From Mount Partitions Entry)
Do Wipe for Dalvik Cache (from Advanced Entry)
Flash the Rom
Flash Fixes and AddOns if Your Device requires any
Then Flash the WiFi Modules

Thank you, will try tomorow
Edit: the file containing the new kernel has got a .img sufix, instead of .zip. Is CWM able to flash .img files? And if so, what is better, flashing it in CWM recovery in the phone, or through Flashtool 0.9?

Due to an unexpected holiday I postponed the flashing to this weekend. One more question: How do I access the CWM recovery in ST15i? I tried holding volume down button while booting, I tried pressing it constantly, tried to press it while the SONY logo glowed more, but nothing happened. (the kernel is not flashed yet)

if you haven't flash the kernel then you cannot boot into CWM yet (unless you have install CWM using other method).....if you already flash the kernel then when your boot the phone, look at the Sony logo and the LED....once the LED is blink (blue colour) then press the volume down to enter CWM....
And if the kernel doesn't use led while seting up try to see with the back key light I think
Cause I know some kernel who doesn't have it
Thank you all for your advice. Kernel and ROM flashed, everything works like a charm.

Hello there!
This question might have appeared alot but I'll try to be as short and accurate as possible on the following:
About two weeks ago, I decided to root my Sony Live With Walkman (4.0.4 Ice cream sandwich) and now I'm thinking of installing Cyanogenmod 9 stable release. But I'll leave this mod for the last part and let us focus on the rooting process I've done.
I've used the following tutorial: talk.sonymobileDOTcom/thread/41119?start=0&tstart=0
At first, I was unsuccesful but in the second try I had managed to root my device (Unlocked bootloader).
Being a bit tired over the official Sony ICS, I thought of putting Cyanogen to my device. This is where the things get confusing for me:
I've spotted multiple tutorials and each one is different and unclear to me. These two are the ones I'm thinking of as the most reliable sources:
- wiki.cyanogenmodDOTorg/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Live_with_Walkman:_Full_Update_Guide
- technologic101.wordpressDOTcom/2012/03/12/tutorial-how-to-install-cyanogenmod-9-0-ics-on-your-se-xperia-2011-device/
So, I have Cyanogen9 coconut, drivers, fastboot, google apps and proper FTF file downloaded.
But what now? Which tutorial is better and accurate for my state of device? Am I risking a brick by doing this? What are the current downsides of Cyanogenmod9 for this device?
Please, write your opinions, explain or link me to the proper guides for my case. I am grateful for any kind of information you give me!
Thanks!

Is kernel the TFT file or the Cyanogenmod zip file (about 125MB)? And how do I flash this with Flashtool?
Boot.img inside the zip is the kernel. Extract and flash that file using fastboot. After flashing the kernel, start your phone and enter recovery. From recovery flash the zip files

Okay then you have done have of the work.
Now backup all your contacts, apps, sms's etc. Then power off your device and boot into fastboot mode. Then take the kernel from the CM9 zip and flash it. After that start your phone and just when the logo gets brighter press the volume down button with which you will boot into the CWM recovery. After that navigate to backup and restore and backup your rom. Then do a wipe data/factory reset ,then wipe chache and after that go to advanced and then wipe the Dalvik Cache. After that go to install zip from sd card and then choose from sd card. then navigate to your rom and flash it. After the flashing is done flash gapps and then reboot.
Note: To navigate in CWM use your volume keys and use the home button to select.
To enter Fastboot: Plug the usb cable side into the phone and while you are plugging it into the computer keep
your volume up key pressed.
To flash a kernel: Put the kernel you extracted from the zip into your fastboot folder.Then open a command
prompt in that particular directory ( in Windows 7 press shift in a blank place and right click).
Then enter this command fastboot flash boot boot.img(Your phone must be in fastboot
mode for this.)
In my signature, there's a guide how to install a custom rom/custom kernels, maybe this could help you!
I would use the cyanogenmod full update guide :good:
You don't need any ftf, you flash a custom rom with clockworkmod (cwm), but this should be explained in the guide

It depends. If you wanna flash any CM or AOKP roms you have to flash thier respective kernels. If you want to flash any stock based roms you can flash any ICS or GB kernel you want like Mesa, Panic kernel etc.
As for how to flash a kernel refer to my post on the page before.

No. For entering the CWMR you have to press the volune down button when the bootup logo gets brighter. For this either you must have CWMR install or else you must have a custom kernel

That didn't work. When the Sony logo gets brighter, a blue LED lights up for that moment.
In cwm, selecting 'Flash ClockworkMod Recovery' opens up a box where my phone model is displayed. After that, it says it's unsupported and I can manually select either 2.x or 3.x+. I've selected the 3.x+ one and in the menu it says 'Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 5.X.X.X
Shall I try with 2.x? I have no clue here.

Mind telling us your kernel version? From there we would know your current kernel
Sent from my SK17i using xda app-developers app
Requirement:- (1) Must be a rooted device and CWM recovery should be preinstalled. (2) Must be a 2011 family xperia device.
As we all know that on locked bootloader
or stock kernel whenever we install a new
custom rom through CWM Recovery
generally our Recovery gets wiped and we
have to install recovery again. So
basically this mod will helpful to those
who have locked bootloader or stock
kernel and often changes their roms like
me, whereas on unlocked bootloaders we
generally uses custom kernels which have
built in recovery so it is not so useful for
them. On locked bootloader or stock
kernel the most simplest way to install
recovery is by using XParts app (Thanks
to pvyparts). Using this app is not a
complicated process but it is quite lengthy
process because first you have to
download and install XParts app then it
will download recovery for your handset.
Also this all can't be happened without a
internet connection and sometimes we
don't have a internet connection, so we
have to wait for working internet
connection so that we can install
recovery. One more thing sometimes we
got bootloop after installing a new rom,
then only way to overcome from this
problem is flashing official Sony firmware
through flashtool using laptop or
computer, after that we have to again root
and install recovery on our device. All this
process is also quite lengthy and we can
say to some extent it is complicated also.
And sometimes we don't have all
necessary things like laptop, computer,
flashtool etc.
Therefore to overcome all these problems
I have made two different CWM
Recoveries as a flashable zip. Now
whenever you install a new rom through
CWM Recovery just after flashing the rom
don't reboot, come back in recovery flash
one of the recovery file which one you like.
After flashing the file you have CWM
Recovery and you don't need to install it.
Now if you got a bootloop after installing
a new rom then you can easily get into
recovery and restore your nandroid
backup. No need of computer laptop etc.
Here I have attached two different
recovery files. The first one is CWM
Recovery by pvyparts and second one is
CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7-nAa-r2 by nobodyAtall.
To get access in CWM Recovery by pvyparts just press volume down key rapidly when blue
notification light blinks on Sony logo. This
key combination may be different for
different devices, for example on my
Xperia mini (on ICS) the right key is
power key whereas for Xperia neo V (on
ICS) just hold the touchscreen when blue
notification light blinks. Whereas on
second one you can get into recovery by
pressing volume down key when Sony
logo blinks or gets brighter. Here I have
also attached XParts app as a flashable
zip, so that if you don't know your right
key combination to get into recovery then
you can use this app to get into recovery,
just flash it in recovery,with CWM
Recovery flashable zip. Successfuly tested
it with Smart Xperia Rom, Revolution ICS
HD, Viper Xperia and Zelly cream.
[ Note:- If u have rooted device but don't
have recovery then you can install it
manually by using root explorer just
extract the files from zip and put them in
their respective folders with permission
( rwx r-x r-x) to all files.]
And in last a very special thanks to
pvyparts for his such a beautiful XParts
app and recovery for our 2011 Xperia devices and to nobodyAtall for his recovery too.
Instruction for installing:-
(1) Download the files and put them on sd
card.
(2) Now whenever you flash a new
custom rom through recovery just after
flashing the rom do not reboot, just go
back in recovery and flash one of the
flashable recovery file which you like the
most and enjoy.
[Now two different flashable superuser apps are also included in this thread which can be flashed through cwm recovery, in case you have cwm recovery but no root access.]
Press thanks if you think this post is
useful to you.

Try the recovery by pvyparts but as I have mentioned above in discription that the key combination to get into recovery by pvyparts may be different for different handsets so it may also different for your handset. You can try power key or vol. down key etc. to get into recovery. Good luck

thats strange because on my friend's mini pro this recovery works well with kernel panic. Now tell me after flashing the recovery by pvyparts have you noticed any blue notification light blinks for some time during the booting process of your phone means when sony logo appears and gets brighter ?
Also it will not change your built in kernel recovery but instead of using that you can use this.

Also in my friend's mini pro he gets access into recovery by pressing power key when notification light blinks during booting process.

No I can't because android kernels are based on linux and I have very little knowledge of linux but I can provide you some useful links that can help you to change the recovery of your kernel. I will provide links in one or two days.

Hi guys,
Yesterday I finally got to instal a new ROM onto my phone. I've done this before so my phone was already rooted and had the bootloader unlocked. I decided t ogo with Cyanogenmod10. My build was 4.1.B.0.587. I used the tutorial on cyanogenmod wiki and done everything as was said, step by step. I wasn't sure if ClockworkMod would be installed with the rom, so I donwload x-tools and isntalled it form there. Once thaat was done I proceeded to installiion. Everything went fine up until getting into CWM. I am now stuck in a boot loop, constaltly showing the xpera free project logo, then the screen goes dark and this all over and over again. So I searched the net and forums, but couldn't find any one with this problem. Most people either get into CWM and from there can't get further, or they turned the phone on adn after using some application theirs system crashes, but nobody seems to have problems with CWM. I can't get anywhere from here and have no idea what to do. If somebody could please help me, I would be very gratefull! Thanks

Hmmm...CWM is already available as built-in inside the custom kernel...no need to install recovery using x-tools anymore...just flash the kernel (boot.img) using flashtool...

I tried that. I opened flashtool, connected my hpone in fastboot mode, selcted fastboot mode, selcted teh kernel, everytrhign went fine without errors. I then disconected the phone, turned it on and once I reached the logo I kept pressing the volume down button, but it does nothign and keeps looping...

you have to wait until the LED appears then you can press volume down (you can also try volume up or power button) to enter recovery....but i suggest you flash stock rom back first and make sure that your phone can boot fine...then flash custom kernel and flash CM10 in recovery...

Hmmm...i said flash stock ROM not stock kernel...if you phone boot fine using stock kernel then you flash fxp kernel (custom kernel) and boot into CWM...no need to flash CWM separately cause CWM is already inside custom kernel...

WTF... So I charged my phone first so I reach the recommended 85%... Meanwhile I redownloaded the CM10 if it wasn't a bad downnload or something, from the original website. Once that was done, I turned my phone off, turned flashtool on a connected my phone in fastboot mode. I then flashed the kernel with boot.img from CM, unplugged and turned the phone off, waitign for the logo, pressed the volume down button many times and ntohing. I tried multiple times, different buttons too. Still the same. What can I be doing wrong?

When I have the phone flashed with stock kernel I can get into the CMW recovery. Trying to install CM with the stock kernel is i guess not a good idea right?
EDIT: So I tried downloading CW9 if that wouldn't make a difference, but it's the same story. Once I boot the phone it just keeps looping from the logo to black screen, no LED lights up, nothing. What if I did a factory reset either from CWM or in the normally booted? Could that help in anyway?

Hmmmm...how many times did i have to tell you, you need to FLASH STOCK ROM first...stock rom has stock kernel inside it...flashing STOCK rom will factory reset your phone...it should make your phone like new...after your phone boot normally then you can flash custom kernel (fxp kernel) and boot into recovery using that kernel...then only then you can flash CM10 into your phone....

probably bcuz u used CWM located in phone storage & deleted it. happens.
to shorten here all, i advice u to use allways kernels (built in) recovery. (forget about xparts its onlx for locked bl ppl)
also if u want to go for a cm (10+) build try LX from here bcuz FXP is NO longer supported! they kleave us. also its very outdated/old/bad
if u flash (any) kernel CWM is inbuilt, so just reflash the kernel using fastboot (cmd commands) , then on power on press the vol up button moretimes!! to enter CWM (must work) i really advice u to use some LX build. (dont forget to wipe partitions bfore flash)

Okay guys, I'm really confused right now. I just couldn't manage to boot into CWM with CM, I tried many versions, none worked. I then applied the exact same steps onto LX and it worked perfectly, I was in CWM after pressing the volume down butto na few times. Now it's been almost a month since I did this and I wanted to change to a differet version again, so I wanted to try CM again, but it's the same thing, I can't get to CWM. Any ideas?
Thanks
