Hello all. I decided to install Hybrom on my Xperia mini pro (sk17i) but i'm little confused at the moment and don't know what to do. I have installed CM 7.2.0 rom with FreeXperia kernel. If i want to install the Hybrom, i just need to flash stock firmware via flashtool, install Clockwork once again, then install some custom kernel like Rage and then install the rom? Or do something else? And do i need to relock the bootloader to flash stock firmware?
Install stock firmware, install kernel, install ROM. That's all. No relock needed. Custom kernel already includes Recovery so it is not needed.

And when i flash firmware, wipe is automatically done so i don't need to do it manually?

Flashing stock firmware - if you choose it in Flashtool, then yes.
Custom - no, you have to do it yourself before installing the ROM.

Thank you, I really appreciate your answer, but I have one last question. Does the firmware already include rom and kernel, or rom only? And do I have to install newer baseband to it to make the custom rom work?

Stock firmwares in .ftf file already include ROM and kernel both.
Most custom ROMs have their own custom kernel that you need to install yourself. Sometimes it is written in the topic as separate download link, sometimes it is included inside the .zip file, then you need to extract it and flash via fastboot. Check my tutorial, if you need help with it.
Baseband will depend on the custom ROM.

Steps I'm about to take:
Flash rage kernel -> then flash cm7. (or do i need to reflash stock kernel first?)
Questions:
- Can I flash kernel and rom from CWM?
- Will I lose my root/cwm when I do the steps?
- If I accidentally flash a kernel that is incompatible with the rom what would happen?
- Any list of kernels that works well with CM7?
Thanks for helpers.
Help. I'm having a hard time installing rage kernel 2.9 for FXP, after I flash it. It won't boot and it won't enter recovery mode. Because of that, I can't install the cm7.2 rom. For now I went back to X kernel. x______X Help please?
Or do I install the rom first before the kernel? Help pleaseee...
Edit: Nvm, fixed it. Found the solution on the original Rage kernel thread
- "If you used KRsH Kernel or X kernel before you need to restore /system/lib/modules/ with stock files. Or just simply flash this: signed-mango_stock_modules.zip (2.3.4) or this ics_wifi_modules-signed.zip (4.0.4) via recovery."

- Kernel can only be installed via fastboot, read forum or my tutorial for more info. For better battery life, use Rage Kernel 2.7 from that topic. ROM needs to be installed via Recovery.
- Root and CWM are included in the kernel already, no need to worry about that.
- Bootloop.
- That Rage Kernel and the original kernel provided with the ROM(in .zip file).

These modules are only related to WiFi.
First install the kernel, else you cannot install the ROM in Recovery.
Make sure your bootloader is unlocked, then install the kernel via fastboot, then enter Recovery(already in kernel, no need to install) and install the ROM.
Could someone please host xperia mini pro sk17i 4.0.2.A.0.58 stock kernel, just the kernel. I've made a nandroid backup, but when i'm trying to restore it, i'm having a bootloop, i guess i need to flash the kernel after i flash with a custom one. Tried to search in this forum, but no success. Or is it any other method to which i can extract the kernel from nandroid backup? Currently i'm using kamarush v3 kernel with cwm v5.0.27. thanks in advance.

I searched for the kernel, too. Just flash the kernel.sin from the .58 ftf.
Or try Rage Kernel for 2.3.4 or X kernel
Download this ftf file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1341460
and use Flashtool to flash just kernel.sin .(uncheck everything else )
That should be equivalent to flashing stock kernel

i've read those thread, but that's not what i'm looking for. The whole ftf file is 260 mb while the kernel only would be aroud 10-15 mb in size. What I'm looking for is stock GB kernel only.

Yes it works with rage kernel for 2.3.4. It works great, I tried it!
The thing with the kernel is okay, but if it doesn't work flash the whole rom, don't exclude anything, your phone will boot up. Root it and install cwm. Then you can restore your old backup...

Hey guys, so I PMed Munjeni about his post that, he said that I need stock chargemon for his kernel.
I have installed CWM from Atis112 which, I think, modified the chargemon.
So I have 6.1.1.B.1.54 stock kernel with unlocked bootloader. I want to install Munjeni's kernel, with CWM and memory tweak but I need stock chargemon, so can anyone give me it or something? And how to install it properly?
Thanks!
Can't anyone answer me? :S
