Flashing a stockrom is always possible, the locked bootloader is only a feature against custom roms. try some flashtool, like Odin, xperia flashtool( maybe it works, idk)
Or have a look for any desktop software of your manufacturer. even a Hard-reset via dialer code should be enough to get back to a clean stockrom ( Look it up for your Device @ Google.

Hello,
I am new at the rooting scene and i hope this is the right forum to post this.
I got my xperia x10 for 1.5 years now and i want to try something new.
When i was searching on the internet i found the new miui rom and it looked incredible. Now i looked to every possible thread on this xda forum database but i still didnt find out how to get this miui rom on my xperia x10. After reading many different threads i do not see the difference between rooting flashing and roms.
I am thinking this: do i need to root my telephone first, then flash it and then i can put a rom on it?
Other thing i was wondering is the thing with locked and unlocked bootloaders. I have a standard 2.3.3 version of android xperia x10 and i never did something with it. Do i need to unlock bootlader to get a miui rom or is this not needed.
My specs:
modelnumber x10i
Android version 2.3.3
Smalband version 2.1.71
Kernel version 2.6.29-00054
Sorry for asking these noob questions but when i look to the miui forum i see methods for locked and unlocked bootloaders.
I hope someone want to help me with getting the miui rom on my telephone, because i am 1000% not as smart as all of u are with phones
with kind regards,
Jeroen

Hey ,
First of all, yes u will need to root your phone before flashing ROMs.
And about the bootloader question.. Most of the MiUI ROMs requires a unlocked bootloader, but ofc some of them will work on locked too.. If u want to get the most out of ur phone, u can easily unlock bl using flashtool.

thnx for ur comment... well im still looking to the forums hehe to learn more.
So i can root my phone with xrecovery? and then i can also flash roms with xrecovery? but i have .73 and everyone is talking about .48 and .52 whats with that
Pick a rom and see what you need.Be aware that rooms have bugs,help is sometimes slow in forthcoming and to see what's going on may require you to read 100s of posts in that rooms thread AND some links for download may be dead.
Anyway first thing to do is set up your PC properly with flash tool/PC companion and flash/root the phone.
I would then read and bookmark the guides on here,and see how to make a backup.
Then you can see what rom you would like, see what kernel is needed and if you need/want to unlock the boot loader.
You could maybe have a crack at *oodies primex* rom to start off with.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
When You're on a stock ROM it would be better for You to root and unlock Your bootloader now, else You won't be able to unlock Your bootloader later.
Here are all the files You'll need to do this.
kernel
Dear jakuburban,
Thnx for your reply on my message. I am currently at my work so i cannot open your help file. I am looking forward to it when i am at home. I did some research today on the forum and i finally understand i need to flash root and unlock my xperia x10.
But the only thing i do not understand is the kernel. There are many different kernels and i do not know wish one i need to use.
I want to get the corbrato MIUI rom based on 2.3.7 android. I got currently 2.3.3 android on my telephone. So do i need to take the 2.3.3 kernel or the 2.3.7 one? and whats the difference between the kernels and what one is the best to take?
I hope you or someone else can answer this.
Thnx for helping!!!
Kind regards,
Jeroen

2.3.3 and 2.3.7 are the versions of the ROM not Kernel. Kernels are mostly calle after a developer so for example DooMLorD kernel, which I think is the best for You. It works on stock-based ROM's and on a MIUI (It takes a little bit long too boot).
Hi everyone,
I have two Chinese tablets ( nonames) with Android ICS that I have already rooted
and I would like to flash a Custom ROM Jelly Bean on it.
I have never flashed a device before.
I dont know even what ROM is compatable to this device.
What I would need to know first before I would ever try to flash it.?
I really do not want to brick it. :crying:
Thanks in advance for all suggestions.
You're going to have to provide more details before anyone can help you.
Going to need to know the manufacturer, tablet specs, model number.
Flashing is different for all tablets so unless you can identify it, there is no way to tell you the proper procedure.
I have an xperia X10 mini Pro. now i have a verry stupid question (and i think i posted this on the wrong section, sorry for that my first time on the forum). my question is: will i be able to play games that are not compatibel with my phone ( icon pop quiz,...) if i root? or will it make no difference
and if it will help can sombody like explain in short how to root and what about roms ..
I know there are alot of treads but i want you to like give me advise on what is the best for me?
will i lose my data on phone and sdcard?
what are the risico's?
thanks to the ones that are going to help me.
if there is exact the same tread can you send me a link ( i looked for 10 minutes but dident find what i was looking for)
Hey You can have any game in your U20i ,there is only one problem that you have ,that is were you able to play a game in your mini pro! Rooting your x10MP does not delete your sd data (but may your phone data, if you upgrade to another firmware and root, will delete phone data ).
heres the link for rooting- forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950324
And another thing please go through x10MP section before asking this kind of questions!

Hey, bro!
First of all, there are no stupid questions, weŕe all learning here .
Rooting, in itself, doesnt let you play more Games/Apps.If you want to use more and especially newer apps, you will have to install a Custom ROM on your device, commonly known as flashing. A custom ROM is a is an android operating system that is different from your latest "official"(made by SonyEricsson) OS. Custom ROMs for our device are very practical, because our latest official Android version is 2.1, which doesnt support many apps. Currently, the best working custom ROMs for our Phone are the ones based on 2.3 Gingerbread.
To get the very best out of your Phone, you will have to unlock your bootloader (which is slightly risky) and flash a custom kernel, which is also part of a new Android OS(tutorials you will find in the following link).
If the procedure of unlocking your bootloader is to risky/difficult for you, there is another alternative: to flash a ROM based on your preinstalled("stock") kernel. For this you HAVE to root your phone, which doesnt have any risks and isnt difficult, install xrecovery (a program to install new ROMs) and then flash a "stock kernel based" ROM. Everything else you need to know is in this Links:
All custom ROMs and Tutorials for xrecovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1588192
For unlocking your bootloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462278
PS.: You wont lose any on your sdcard and phone if you just root your Phone. If you flash a new ROM, you will lose the data on your Phone, but not the data on your sdcard.

hi guys, I know help has been asked plenty of times for this and other phones. also I read dozaens of guides, but this instead of helping me, made me very confused :crying:
here is my problem: my girlfriend's sk17i has a terrible signal connection, so I would like to try different basebands on it (could that fix the problem or at least improve the situation?)
my problem is that I didn't understand clearly what I need to do on the phone to change basebands.. root? unloack bootloader? install cwm? install custom roms or stock ics will be ok?
ps. I am not new in root, see my signature I own a rooted defy+ and installed dozens of custom roms on it, so I would just like to know from you which preliminary steps I have to do and are strictly necessary to change basebands, once I know that I will try to do that by myself following the many guides I found..!
pps. I would like to do as less things as possible, just because it is not my phone and if I brick it a can get killed :laugh: if it was mine no problem I did everything possible on mine
thanks in advance for all the help you can provide
bye!

To change baseband, you only need Flashtool, proper FTF file (every firmware includes different baseband) and phone with USB cable.
No root, no need to unlock bootloader, no CWM, any ROM will do.
Which baseband(BB) are you currently using? Also, which ROM?

thanks for the reply!
good to hear.. seems I can try different BB's pretty easily so
she's on stock ICS 4.0.4..
BB: 8x55a-aaabqoazm-203028g-77
FW: 4.1.B.0.587
if it was mine, I would have already rooted, unlocked it and tried FXP cm10.. I can't stand all those sh*tty apps included in stock roms.. but as I wrote it is not mine and if I brick it that would be a big problem..
(even if actually she is using it as it was a old phone as data connection is almost un-usable.. 3g status is always almost 0, and 2g can not be used because of operator problems.. : ( ) so she can only use it with WI-FI in the office and then no data connection anymore..
that's bad, I bought her that phone and if I knew before data connection signal was so bad I would have never bought it
you think I can improve the situation trying different BB? tx again!
I doubt it will help. I do not think changing baseband will make it any better.
Try the same SIM card in another phone(s). Does the issue still occur in other phone(s)? If yes, the issue is with either the SIM or the operator.
Then try another SIM card in the Mini Pro. Does the issue still occur with another SIM card in Mini Pro? If yes, then the issue lies in your phone.
I have already made tests, troubleshooting etc (I work in a service department :laugh: ) and I am sure the problem is on the phone that's why I would like to try a different BB as last hope.. if that won't work then I will trow it away and buy something else.. :crying:

I know this aint what your asking for BUT if you have a custom recovery you could backup what it is to an sdcard for of what it is needing from the firmware maybe. or if its to fix your phone, i know that if your systems gone bad, This device ( atu-l22 ) which of what i has is able to download the firmware for you even if your phone doesnt have a system installed on it..
****BELOW COMMENT
NOT RELATED TO YOUR POST****
I know i shouldnt be posting this question on your forum but maybe you or anyone that visits this post may know how to install ( custom rom/ custom firmware ) to our specific device? ( Atu-L22 ) ive been trying for a very long time, i have Unlocked bootloader & Magisk rooted device. Much experience with doing stuff to phone systems BUT then it comes to huawei which is muc different for ME to what samsung and other androids are? i just need help installing custom roms, im currently about to delete my system from my phone which ive backed up, and am about to have it reinstalled from that Erecovery thingy which our device offers, then imma fix/ unlock the vendor type thingy thru HCU Client and see if that helps?
