Well, I bought a Xperia S, I read the tutorials in the forum, but still some questions...
What is the 1st thing that I need to do?(I really don't understand the correct order to do the the things).
Is there anything special to install the Rom or it is just copy do SD and install?
Thanks for the help, and sorry for the english
I hope I am posting on the correct area

1) Not the correct forum
Go to Xpeia S forum
2)Yes just copy to sd card and flash via CWM

Buddy:
- root and unlock your bootloader
- download CM10 for nozomi
- open the zip file and take the boot.img from the zip (this is the kernel with CWM)
- put the rom in your internal memory
- then do this:
if you use windows xp or vista/7 you have in accesorries CMD program. Run it and type:
cd \
cd flashtool
cd x10flasher_lib
NOW connect phone when you hold Vol UP and type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
- restart the phone and when you see the logo start clicking vol + to enter CWM
- wipe data, wipe cashe, wipe dalvic cashe
- install zip
- wipe again and reboot
- enjoy

The nightly builds have many bugs & they are not so stable...

Cwm is the short form of ClockWorkMod.
It's a recovery software for android phones.(as u can see BIOS in pc. Not exactly but that's the them.)
It comes with custom kernels. For devices with locked bootloader u hav to install it separately.

Hi, everyone
i try to make cwm touch + newest version running on stock with GingerDX
I need testers since i have no time to test it myself
in attachment there is the cwm-rec.tar
if you're on stock kernel could you please try it
just copy it into /system/bin and set permission to all allowed(read,write,execute)(dont need all, but so it's simplier)
Be sure to have a backup, which you can launch with FPX/X-recovery
after overwriting cwm it's possible its not working anymore
please report back
if it works, dont work, dont start recovery and hangs up on boot or it starts and no touch, and so on
------------------------------------------------EDIT-------------------------------------------------------------------------
thank you all for you're replies
there were some problems mounting partitions, but now everything should work in this recovery, except touch
i'm still workin on that
and about naa-kernel, recovery actually it is possible, maybe if i have free time I'll make some workaround for loading an other recovery, even if it is completly pointless
check attachments for the "working" recovery THE NEW ONE IS THE ZIPPED

Is this the same recovery as the recovery that comes with Alfs kernel?
if you can replace in the kernel ramdisk file the recovery then the answer is yes, any other situation the answer is no...

very simple explanation...
nAa kernel (or any other custom kernel for that matter) already has CWM builtin
stock kernel does not.
now why in the world would anyone wanna make a CWM for a kernel that already has it?? if there really was... how does one invoke it?
also, u can forget about nAa making a kernel with touch CWM... go read his explanation why if u wanna know

This is a forum and i have the right to post. If you don't like, IGNORE IT, don't try to be a yes-man to the developers, they don't need it.
So here's the deal modders and forum members....
Tried a couple of custom kernels to get my Sola rooted but every kernel had some or the other issue..
So here's what I did to keep the root and to solve the issues...
1) Fastbooted with custom kernel to get rooted
2) Flashed with stock firmware. Tft file (only ticked kernel nothing else) so that's the stock kernel of my firmware. .184
3) rebooted and Walla rooted
So now the problem is I lost CWM
Can't boot into recovery
So can someone please help me out over here to install recovery again without flashing a new kernel..
I have rom manager pro installed

Hi I know your issue since I faced it.The kernel you are using is bad for this rom.
Use FXP/CM9.1/CM10 Extended kernel for Xperia Mini Pro
This is found in the kernel section.Just see your device and download the latest one.
Then use flash tool to flash it after when you boot into jelly vanilla rom 6.1 make a factory data reset with also erasing mmc
It will solve your problem:good:

your model is wt19i so its Live with Walkman™ phone with code-name-- (coconut)
I don't know but I don't think its advisable then search for any kernel cm10 based apart from mesa,try LuPuS-jB [LINARO 4.7][CM10 BASED],but this one had wi if issues for my mini pro.Give it a shot
looks like you already tried it then??
PS i thought your one was mini pro as well

To reflash the rom, just download the latest cm10.zip for your phone (if it's a live with walkman, wt19i then download the one for coconut) and the gapps (google apps) for android 4.1.2. Now put the two files on your sdcard and reboot in cwm or TWRP recovery. Then you just wipe cache (no data will be lost) and flash the cm10.zip and afterwards the gapps. Reboot and see if the lag still exists
If it still exists you have to change the kernel, or you try another version of MESA
