[Q] Xperia locked bootloader - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello everyone!!!
i got a serious problem in my Sony Xperia P. i bought it 3 days ago and it was feeling very laggy and i was not satisfied with it so i just used sony own pc companion and updated it and it didn't help and gives one more trouble.. the dialer starts lagging.. so i read somewhere about this site and read and learn to install custom rom..
The main problem is I tried to install the custom kernel ( nemesis ) by going into CWM recovery and it successfuly install but now my phone is only showing blue light and after red light when i tried to open CWM.. i cant install my rom.. please anyone help.. i bought this phone with my own money doing some very hard work.. please anyone just tell me how can i go back to original rom or install custom rom.. and my bootloader is allow to unlocked but i didn't unlocked it and i forgot.. Sorry for that it was my mistake.

hello there.
okay, 1st, you need to get your phone alive again by flashing a stock rom. i suggest you follow this tutorial here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/general/how-to-resolve-softbrick-upgrade-to-ics-t2023135
The link to flash tool is dead i think, so you can download the latest flashtool here:
http://www.flashtool.net/download.php
follow Dr droid instructions word for word and you'll be fine. It saved my Sola last year, and it will save your XP.
Keep flashtool installed, because you can use it to unlock your bootloader. Just get the phone running first.
Good luck....

Don't panic, everything that is software related can be easily fixed:
http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperi...ctions-using-Pc-Companion-Windows/td-p/249946
If you have trouble with the sony software, you can always flash the original 4.1.2 Android version through flashtool, which was linked above.
Here is the image:

Use carbon rom. It is the smoothest rom so far.
For the soft keys I don't understand.

I do know what soft keys are but I don't have the solution to your problem. Carbon can be found in the xperia P development section.

Help needed.. Am in trouble :(

my phone was sk17i with ICS and locked boot loader.. i rooted my phone and installed custom ROM given here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991371
but after installation it is showing a menu for selecting language..but am not able to select next option because my touch screen is not working.. i tried flashing with sk17i firm ware but showing same screen.. and i tried many times to enter into the cwm recovery mode .. but phone is getting started as usual without entering into recovery mode. I first entered into recovery mode with an option "automatically reboot and recovery" option in as software called x-part.. what should i do now.. please help me.. am in trouble..
Install cwm using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346190, then wipe everything (especially mounts/storage /system partition) and re-install. are you sure you made the correct choices in aroma installer? if touch is not working you probably installed the version for some other model or made wrong choice where it asks if bootloader is locked or unlocked.

In aroma installer there is a device selection as
Lww
Mini pro
Mini
Active.
U should choose ur respective device there..
According to ur statement I think u selected live with walkman in aroma...
Where the Rom got replaced with live with walkman touch drivers.

LOCKED bootloader...please help.. how can i go back.. can't even enter into cwm
Reflash stock ftf firmware using flashtools, you will probably loose root after that and will have to repeat the rooting procedure. Then you can re-install the rom making the correct choices

First unlock ur bootloader n flash a custom kernel so u will get cwm thn enter in cwm n flash the rom for ur device
Nah, unlocking bootloader is needless. Just use Sony Update Service / Flashtool to reflash the firmware. Then root and reinstall the ROM again.
i again installed GB Rom and rooted again and then again installed the HD custom ROM(the one i mentioned in above link) and selected se mini pro in aroma installer and even after installation SE logo is showing and then screen is black.. why it is like that???

Exact same issue on ST15 when installing this same ROM.
I have been trying to fix it all morning.
Installing .62, then Hybrom10, then again .62 DID fix my screen, although I don't get the logic:

Hi everybody, I'm Luis and this is my first post
I have a problem with my phone:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002376
After install the rom, the touch screen is not working anymore :crying:
I did some things to solve my problem but the touch screen doesn't work:
factory reset
restore with cwm
flash my XMP with flashtool using GB and ICS roms
reinstall the firmware with SEUS
but the touch screen is dead, the home and power buttons are working, the back and menu buttons are dead too.
my phone has a locked bootloader
Can somebody help me please?

Yes I know bro, there are more with the same problem for this FK rom
if u guys had made a backup in recovery before flashing u cud have restored it.
i assume u havent done so . therefore use flashtool to flash new firmware or simply try installing a new ROM and see if TS is working !

xperia mini pro almost bricked because of a custom rom

Hello guys, please forgive me if any of this has caused the slightest troubles to you
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

Hmmm...if i understand your problem correctly, you ROOT and install CWM on you Mango, then you flash custom mods...problem appears after flashing custom mods right????
Hmmm....okey, for you info, those custom mods are for CM10 Roms ONLY and i believe you haven't flash CM10 Roms FIRST before you flash those mods...you can't use those mods on STOCK ROM (GB and ICS)...its designed for JB rom only....No wonder your phone got black screen...you trying to flash some mods that isn't COMPATIBLE with your roms...you need to flash STOCK Roms back if you want to fixed your problem...
for you second question...did your phone BOOTLOADER is Unlock??? if is not then sorry you can't CM Roms without unlocking the Bootloader first....CM Roms mush use CUSTOM KERNEL not STOCK KERNEL and after Unlocking you Bootloader then you can flash CUSTOM KERNEL and CM Roms...

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.
messed up again guys...
umm... hi again..
I didn't brick my phone this time (actually i did for a couple of times trying to install a custom rom)

Hi... I guess I am unable to do anything...
Is there a simpler method??
I mean I tried some of the methods in your post... But no luck...
Can't I just flash an old rom to get my screen working?? Isn't there anyone who has created a software for this...
Please help... I am utterly confused and frustrated...

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..

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.

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..

Hi are you sure you're refering to coolancool's Xperia Ultimate HD 5.0.1?
As you can see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2486064
He released his rom October 16, while you posted your problem Oct 15 and you indicated there that you have this problems for more than 3 days.
So I think you might be referring to the wrong rom..
Maybe what you installed is this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920207
Which is the same version BUT for Sony Xperia Arc & Xperia arc S & Sony Xperia Pro. Which is why I think it installed as Xperia Pro. It is clearly not for our LWWs.
That is why coolancool ported it for our xperia 2011 devices so it could work for our LWWs.
