Just flashed Cyanogenmod and I decided to format the sd card and the ext_card, I had no problem until I restart, oh man, stuck at boot logo...
So, I flashed stock Sony Xperia kernel from flash tool and still same result, stuck at boot logo. I can enter to fastboot and flashmode but I don't know what I can do.
Mine's Xperia Sola MT72i. Any help will be apreciated!
By the way, I have the clockmod recovery and I can flash it.

In recovery, mount USB Storage then copy CM10 Rom zip to your SD card, Then unmount SD and flash Rom zip.
Well, nailed it!
Thank you!

Hello guys,
I've got an X10mini (E10) (second hand but should not branded)
I'm actually stucked in a bootloop. It happened after I tried flashing the miniCM7 ROM with CWM.
I've tried the wipe data/factory reset frome CWM but nothing happened
I've tried the recovery option from my previous backup
Nothing
I've tried reflashing the Stock Rom (found in one of Xda-developers thread)
And I still got a bootloop (with the Sony Ericson logo)
Could anyone help me? =)

Why don't you try a repair with SEUS or PC Companion, that will get you back to original.
You said you did wipe data/factory reset, but did you wipe cache and dalvick-cache too (second one in advanced menu in CWM), because they're filled with useless junk from your old ROM, causing many errors.

Disconnect your phone from your pc
Start PC Companion
Choose Support Zone
It will try to find an update for your phone, but since it's disconnected it can't
It will offer a Repair link
Follow the instructions from there.

The fact is that the last version of PC Companion doesn't have that Support Zone anymore
and downloading the previous version doesn't help cause it force you to upgrade the software ...

You don't have much choice i suppose, i'll give you the download link in a pm
Just download it, put it in the firmwares subfolder where flashtool is installed and flash it to your phone, it will take a while because it flashes everything (kernel and rom), but i hope it will help you

I saw your thread.
I also have an x10 Mini and got stuck in a bootloop (colors swishing around on screen). I rooted, installed xrecovery - what shows up in the screen is cwm recovery v 5,0,2,8. I unlocked the boot loader, flashed this Kernel using flash tool (an older version): U20_nAa-14_2.6.29.6-nAa-14.ftf I tried to downloand nAa 11 but 14 kept coming up, so I put that in the firmware file along with the stock Kernel. I forgot to install the drivers, but the flash tool said it was successful. After disconnecting and starting the phone "Ana" words not the symbol came up and the boot loop began. Alternatively, on start up, I can get into cwm recovery. I didn't save the rom or google app zip on my sd card as I assumed I could that after flashing the Kernel, but the bootloop makes impossible
My goal is to install Android Fire 2.3.
I would really appreciate any guidance.

Connect your phone to your PC using the usb-cable
Boot into CWm (you say you can)
Go into Mounts and Storage
Choose USB-Mass storage
You should be able to access the sd-card from your pc now and copy the ROM and maybe Gapps.

Worked like a charm!. Thank you very much. I went for mini cm 7 as it seemed the most stable. thanks for your help.
just need to get the sd card to mount and I am all set. Do you have any ideas why I can't get it to mount?

I don't know, apparently it worked fine when you connected it to your pc...
Maybe you could pull all your files off the sd-card to your pc, boot into cwm and format the sd-card (in mounts and storage), then reboot into the rom.
If that's all successful, put the files back on your sd-card.

What would happen if I select "apply update from sd card". This is the second option under CWM recovery.
Should I restore from Nanadroid. i s this necessary?
Could partitioning the sd card help? Thanks again!

The 'Apply Update.zip' does exactly the same thing as the 'Install zip from sd-card', but the first option only works for zip-files named 'update.zip' in the root of your sd-card, the second option will let you browse the sd-card and select a zip-file with any name. The second option is the one you use to install your ROM.
Restoring from nandroid, just fills your internal phone-memory with the old stuff you had in there, it won't affect your sd-card, other than that it reads the nandroid from that sd-card.
Your sd-card needs to be formatted with the fat-filesystem to work properly, so partitioning or not makes not much of a difference, only that the available space for your stuff (music, photo's, etc.) is less because the other partitions take up space too.
If you can flash your ROM in CWM from sd-card I don't really see any problem with your sd-card.
worked like a charm. many thanks!

"Alternatively, on start up, I can get into cwm recovery".
I have the exact same problem though i cant get into clockworkmod recovery. May i know how you got into cwm recovery? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
ok here's what I did. coming from stock ICS, I unlocked the bootloader and flashed Sony Xperia Sola custom boot for 6.1.1.B.1.10 + rooted + CWM Touch recovery v5.5.0.4 from here. i was successful but it's still lag. So I tried flashing Infinity ROM using CWM then when I rebooted my phone it's stuck on the "SONY custom" boot logo. I waited for several minutes but it still won't continue.
I can still access CWM and flash again the custom boot 6.1.1.B.1.10 + rooted + CWM but to no luck. still stuck at boot logo
any suggestion would be appreciated!

looks like this' my last choice. My phone went on boot-loop after I reflashed the custom 6.1.1.B.1.10 (without the boot.img). I'm using CM9.1 for now, but as I read it's not yet complete. I guess this will do for now.
still I want to ask what kernel is needed for Infinity ROM?
Hi, after flashing the ROM did you wiped everything: wipe data, wipe cashe, wipe dalvick cashe?

If I'm not wrong, the Pixel team's ROMs need pure stock kernel. The ROM doesn't include the kernel i think, which is why wipe data is never needed. The One by munjeni has a modified kernel, and that could explain the bootloop.
You could flash either Stock, the xHybrid ROM, or the PureBlood ROM and then flash to Infinity ROM. As both have the Stock Kernel in them, they should work, but you'll lose data ( data wipes are always recommended when trying new ROMs, except updates from the rom you are currently running )
Sola Stuck on Sony logo+battery not charging
Hi guys,
I was using munjeni's jelly bean port+ etch04's experimental kernel for sometime and everything was great until yesterday. My battery died out completely and when I plugged it into the charger it turned on and was stuck in the Sony logo. There was no charging indicator. I thought omg so this is what a hard brick looks like. As you know, the sola's battery isn't removable so I thought I was doomed.Tried a hard reset and there was no difference. So I kept it there (plugged in, stuck in the sony logo) for a while, plugged it out and turned it on. Luckily, IT HAD CHARGED even if the charging indicator or display didn't show it. So I tried turning it on but it got stuck on the sony logo as usual. Since the battery had charged a little, I plugged the phone in fastboot mode and flahed etch04's experimental kernel again. But it still got stuck in the sony logo. Then, as a last resort I flashed the stock ICS .54 kernal using flashtool and IT WORKED! (charged with charging indicator and display)
Then I flashed etch04's kernel again and now everything's back to normal.
Here's the stock ICS .54 kernel.
View attachment MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_KERNEL.rar
Place it in flashtool/firmware folder and flash with flashtool.
Good Luck!

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!

Hello today/tonight I tried to flash my Xperia go. I managed to unlock bootloader with no problem. But when I came to
the step where I should boot the img something went wrong. So I downloaded another rom and tried that boot.img. That one worked BUT I forgot to put the new rom on the phone. So now I'm stuck in recovery/fastboot or stuck on booting forever. When I tried to put on usb storage I only got the option to unmount sd nothing more and when I press it nothing happens.
Any idea how to fix this ?

Now we the same problem! I have a Sola.
@Thestupidnoob
If you have the firmware FTF file then flash only kernel.sin with flashtool (no wipes, exclude all others)
If you can enter CWM, clear dalvik cashe in CWM and shut it down before you flash the kernel.
@ChikeD
Hey thanks for the help ChikeD but I already solved it. I found a old phone so I switched my sd card to that one and then put the rom on the sdcard.
@jedts0357
So jedts ask a friend or something if they can borrow you a phone.
Hello,
I'm trying to install the P.A.C Man rom on my Xperia Sola. I got the boot.img from the .zip file and successfully flashed it via fastboot.
After that I rebooted and the "Xperia Sony Smartphone" splash came up and the led flashed once. Usually I would go to CWM from there by pressing volume+. But now just nothing happens; the splashscreen keeps showing and I can't enter CWM to flash the rom istself.
Did I do something wrong or did I miss any important steps?
I would appreciate any help!

Somehow I got I figured out. I flashed another kernel via fastboot, got into CWM and flashed the rom there. Now my system is up and running and everything seems to work just fine.
I wasn't sure whether I need the boot.img from the kernel or not.
Thanks for your help anyway, DaRk-L0rD!
first of all, sorry for ma bad english
i have sony xperia sola rooted.
i tried to install experience innovation rom via CWM.
i proceeded as per the instructions and rebooted the phone.
the sony logo came and booting images also came.. and it restarted
since then, whenever booting, it get stuck at sony logo.
i can access cwm.
also i can see in recovery>mounts and storage> that \data and \system are in unmounted state.
i tried to mount them but after restrating it automatically becomes restored
pls tell me step by step instructions
with love <3
I think you have boot loop. If u did backup in cwm before flashing the rom, just go to cwm and restore it. If u didnt, flash stock ics or firmware u used to have before via flashtool

that is nothing to worry about the mount section is nothing to worry about it, it's set by default to be in unmount state...
and try to flash the same ROM again and wipe the data or such as it is said in the flash instructions of that particular rom...
if still problem continues flash stock ftf by flash tool....
the boot loop is a very common problem during flashin and can be easily recovered..........:good:
You can get the stock ftf file from the Development Section ,,
