I rooted my P765 using LGPwn.apk and flashed recovery using artas' app. Now i can just download zips on my sd card and flash them in recovery?
Also, are CM and PACman roms bugfree now? Which rom do you prefer? thanks!
Please just tell me if i could flash Cm10 for P760 on my device now, without any problems?

You have to unlock bootloader first to install any custom ROM. It's not bugfree. Max sound volume of the speaker is lower than in stock. This is only thing which annoys me so far in CM. PACMAN has problem with wifi, wait for update. It should be made soon but probably sound of the speaker will be quiet as in CM. Of course 1080p video recording is not working too but I don't care about it.
Actually there are some roms for locked bootloader like I have jb experience v2.1
And unlocking bootloader can hard brick your phone
Press thanks if I helped

It's based on stock ROM and you don't have changed kernel. In that case you can find changed theme and some tweaks. It's modified stock ROM and it's not big diffrence from stock. For custom ROMs such as CM or PACMAN you need to unlock bootloader and he asked about them.

Supporting UNLOCKED bootloader only! :-/
So this is simply stock ICS build .587 without ANY mods, flashable in CWM
The only thing I did, is remove the humongous amount of what I think is bloatware.
But fear not, if you're really fond of those 68 apks (61MB), I've created a flashable package for you to flash 'em back
I did this in an attempt to make it easier for some guys who keep asking how to root ICS even though there are several guides on XDA
Also, it could maybe be used as a basis for ROM cooking/ building.
Need help with unlocked bootloader support!!
I have an unlocked bootloader (official way).
I re-locked it again just to test if this ROM would work on locked BL.
No luck. It flashes just fine on unlocked BL. And when I re-lock, it continues to boot fine (stock kernel).
But when I re-flash the ROM from inbuilt CWM, it gets stuck at sony logo -.-
I would really appreciate some help to make this work on unlocked bootloader!?
Anyway... it does work fine on unlocked BL!
So enjoy!

Have you unlocked your bootloader? I suspect not. This is what flashtools is referencing.
Custom roms and mods that work on stock kernels can be installed on rooted devices.
Some mods/roms make such significant changes to Sony's builds that a new kernel is required (MIUI, CM, AOKP). To install a custom kernel you need to unlock your bootloader.
You may read the instructions provided by the author of the rom., to flash kernels, you need to unlock your bootloader. Seek and you'll see.
Is that right? lol

Now you’ve flashed one ROM on the Ray I can’t see you stopping
It doesn’t matter what WE recommend because your experience of which is the best ROM may be different to ours.
Try them all – I usually change mine once a month. But in my humble opinion, the most cutting edge, fully featured, experimental yet suitable for daily use ROM is PAC. My little Ray runs smoother than my wife’s Galaxy S2 and has so much more swagger – to borrow from AOKP.
so you recommend PAC rom ? actullay i want to stay with my stock based smooth (ASOP) ROM. if you know something then pls recommend me

I've searched but can't seem to find an answer to my question, this thread seems to be closest. I have unlocked BL, rooted and flashed cm10 on my wife's Neo V, because on stock rom it was too slow. Runs great, really happy. Only problem, she uses a Barclays Bank app, but because it has detected that the phone is rooted, it won't let her use it. Can I unroot without losing the custom rom, or a way around making the app "beleive" that the phone isn't rooted?

Get another bank... Cant use cyanogenmod without root because root is part of cyanogenmod.. So next time yo need a phone with cyan you only need to fix bootloader and then flash you rom.. No root needed
So i know that there are a lot of posts on XDA itself about this issue but i couldn't find a single one that i saw useful for me!
I recently had re-locked my bootloader and came back on stock ICS with root!
Earlier i had flashed almost all CM ROMs including the newest CM 10.1.
Today i unlocked the bootloader and tried to flash FXP CM10 and got this error! Tried with boot.img included with the zip, as well as Lupus v7. Both gave me same errors!
Please help me guys!

Did that 3 times! Also this is the second time i unlocked my BL. I guess that's not the problem as i just flashed CM10.1 and it's working without a problem!
extract boot file of your rom and flash it with fastboot
Just open the Updater Script inside your ROM zip and then delete the first three lines something with getprop blablabla , always working for me

As far as I know, the kernel should be in the rom.zip (it's the boot.img). Extract it and flash it using flashtool or the fastboot tools
Otherwise search for a kernel for android 4.2.2 in Dev section and flash that one. Should work too
Sent from my Nexus 4 running Android 4.2.2
One thing to remember is, before flashing a custom ROM or MOD, ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP.
To be on the safer side, backup every week or so and keep the last two or three backups.

So,
i just rooted my phone a day ago and installed clockwork mod too...
i am a total newbie and don't know anything about this.... So i went searching for some custom mods for my sk17i or Xperia mini pro...
And i found one on this site http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2102979
So then i installed it from the instructions given on most of the websites... i had a kernel of 4.1.b.0.587 on the phone and i don't even know much about flashtool...
Now the rom is installed or whatever it is but the UI has completely changed and it's not like the pics on the site... It's just completely black... And the worse part is that i can't even access my settings menu on the phone... So now i am blocked from doing anything... i cant even start usb debugging and take off the root....
please tell me some roms for the phone or any other way this can be undone...
Oh and btw i also tried installing some roms from http://get.cm/?device=mango because i thought cyanogen is pretty famous...
But none of them gets installed... and i even tried placing them as updates but no luck :crying::crying:
please help... thank you so much

Your phone got almost bricked,No it didnt, First thing before installing a custom ROM clear your system,data,cache partition..did you do that?
ok so you have CWM installed..follow this exactly
Start CWM by pressing vol down when your phone starts up,Select Mount USB Storage under mounts and storage,connect phone to pc,transfer ROM zip file to sdcard then
format /system ,/data,/cache ,now select install zip from sdcard and select your ROM zip file from sdcard
Reboot System..
You should be clear now..
Hope i helped..
Regards..
PS :Certain CM ROMS can be highly unstable so i recommend checking out the bugs and everything before you flash a CM rom..otherwise ICS is always smooth and stable..and have got a lot a lot of mdpi roms on xda..thanks to devs..
EDIT: if u r on a stock kernel,then unlock your bootloader by following steps at unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com then flash a custom kernel that supports JB..look over at the index thread created by predator at the dev section..
then follow my steps above..
DO NOT FLASH CUSTOM JB ROM ON STOCK ICS KERNEL.IT WONT WORK.

u forgot to tell it must be a stock ICS rom (as he has stock kernel) otherwise he may flash cm10.2 on it and i would be messed up 2nd time
