[Q]I want to install custom kernel ,i m currently using freex10 b4 and bb.54,Plz guide me
I also would like to know the same thing , i read a lot but could not understand it
if someone can give me the step by step guide on how to install custom kernel on Z's freex10 b4 and tell how stable is custom kernel with freex10 , i would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance
Is there no one to guide me in the right direction?
If I not wrong.
1) Install the bb patch and put in SD card
2) Flash bb52 using flashtool
3) After flashing, enter recovery immediately and flash the bb patch
4) Reboot to home screen and make sure ROM is functioning well with signal.
5) Reboot to recovery again and install the custom kernel.

Ok guys I have been reading all day trying to find directions on exactly how to flash my baseband and the more threads and posts i read I am just getting myself confused So I need someone who knows how to do this to confirm the following or correct anything i have wrong before i attempt this. I am using wolfbreaks TW 0007 froyo rom and have some experience with using Xrecovery so i am not clueless about making changes to my X10. Here's my question, I know i need bb .52 to use wolfs rom with his kernel. I am currently on bb .54 and i know i have to use flashtool to flash a new baseband. This is the first time attempting to flash a baseband or try a custom kernel.
Do I flash the BB.52 by itself with flashtool and then reboot into Xrecovery and flash Wolfbreaks TW v007 rom with Kernel?
do I need to flash back to Generic SE .435 2.1 firmware before I flash the baseband?
Some guys had posted to bundle the BB and rom, then flash with flashtool but the rom is a . zip file not a .ftf or .rar so i'm pretty sure that isn't right.
I hope someone can help me clear this up so i can start enjoying the custom kernels the devs are working on. thanks to everyone on XDA for the awesome work you do.
A full reflash is recommended as it is hard to mess up. As a matter of fact I've just completed my flash from stock kernel TW007 to the custom kernel version.
So here's the steps:
1. Use any available method to revert to stock.
2. Get root, xRec, etc. from flashtool
3. Make sure you can enter xRecovery (Vital!)
4. Flash 2.0.52 baseband
5. After flashing, reboot directly into xRecovery (don't let the system do a full reboot!), then flash the .52 rom (kernel is already included in the package)
6. Reboot after flashing rom+kernel, let it settle then sign into market
7. Customize
Im so sorry to ask this stupid questions..... im asing that i have Zero knowledge about android custom roms...and how to do.
i brought my X10 3 weeks ago , and i have flash to 2.3.3 as following a XDA thread
i want to install wolf's Rom , its little confusing just a new person like me
01. Do i have to install android 2.1 first ?
02. Then i have to root the phone ? with SD car or have to remove SD card ( i read rooting instruction on XDA said have to unmounted SD )
Don't get angry . thank you

Hi there...
Yes as Wolf says in his thread...
You will need any working room as installing Wolf's rom will pretty much erase and overwrite everything but I have experienced some troubles using any other room first...
So my recomendation is:
- Install stock update from SEUS, if you are NOT able to update via SEUS try Installing a stock firmware from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746
Then try debranding or re-branding your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824711&highlight=debrand
Then use SEUS to download/repair your stock firmware...
Latest flash tool will allow to Root and Install Xrecovery... the you are good to go.
Install Wolf's via Xrecovery, take out the battery and then flash BaseBand...
Install patches again and thats it...
Hope this works to clarify things up ^^
hey.... really thank you to come to help me
im really poor with this knowledge and im learning things now
What is SEUS ?
Is stock firmware install using flash ?
Why we need to debranding ? is it must to do ?
is this correct
1. install 2.1 using flash
2. Debranding
3. SEUS ( ? ) to repair the software
4. Root using flash tool
5. install Xrecovry
6. Install Wolf's via Xrecovery
7. take out the battery and then flash BaseBand
8. install V3 speed tweek using xrecover
9. install additionals using xrecovery
am i correct ?
please sorry for my poor knowledge im trying to learning things
thank you so much
if u have stock firmware u can install using Flash or else use SEUS(Sony Ericsson Update Service)
.. and ya ur steps are correct !!!
hope it works!!
jus thank me if i help ya out !! lol
HI. I have a similar query. I upgraded to GB from DooMLoRD's guide.
1) I dont know whether my phone is rooted or not. Can u tell me a way to do it.
2) I am not able too boot into xrecovery. I am trying my best to press back button but no use.
3) I just want to upgrade to wolf's latest ROM. And for that I need xrecovery working.
Thank you so much :d:d:d:d:d:d:d
[How-To] Running FXP, FXP Miui & Miui Prime on Locked BL (xRecovery / Free Kernel)
Following my FXP Port, I'm expanding the idea so that more people can enjoy these excellent roms on locked bootloader as well.
I have tested the method to work fine on FXP046, Oodie Miui Prime 004 and FXP Miui 1.4. It should work on subsequent builds unless there are major changes by the rom developer. It may work on other roms that are FXP based (but I have not tested)
Credits:
1. Z & J, Doomlord & azuzu - for too many things to mention
2. FXP, Oodie, Crowds - for the excellent roms
3. Tkymgr aka Goro - for the kernel I use as base.
4. Me - for putting these together
Instructions:
1. Do a backup before you proceed.
2. Download LockedBL.zip and copy it to SD Card: http://www.multiupload.com/1FI3RBPCOF
You need to install my modded kernel that comes with CWM5 first
- do steps 3 & 4 if your current rom is running on stock kernel or standard custom kernels
- skip steps 3 & 4 if you are currently running my Miui or FXP Port
3. Download CWM5.zip here: http://www.multiupload.com/9C0LAWAVJW
4. Flash it with xRecovery
5. Reboot and press [Back] key when "Xperia" logo appears, you should get into CWM5
6. Install the rom (FXP, FXP Miui or Miui Prime)
7. Install LockedBL.zip
8. Reboot and enjoy the rom
The rom will run on my modded Free Kernel 4.05.4 and support dual recoveries.
- To get into xRecovery, press [Back] key when SE logo appears
- To get into CWM5, press [Back] key when "Xperia" logo appears
thanks man,
now,we can play more

Depend on which one you use. Original one use cwm5. I'll usually convert it to xRec version.

Is it a cm based rom (fxp or something)?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Hi, i'm new to this, and i need a bit of your expertise.
Right now i have MiniCM7 2.1.7 last update from original poster : nobodyatall
And nAa kernel
What i have to do to change for another rom ? like Paul-xxx's rom ?
I have to wipe data/factory reset and then install like the first one i did, will wi fi work with paul's room ?
I want to change room because this one uses a lot of battery, even all day basically idling.
I turned it on 7:30 AM and now it's 17:43 and there's only 54% left ...
Thank you

If u want to switch to another ROM follow these steps
1) download the *.zip (the ROM zip)
2) go into the recovery n flash it..
3)make a cache wipe n also a factory reset..
4)reboot ur from recovery
Ur done..
N wifi workin in paul-xxx's ROM depends on the ROM which it is check the details on resp thread.. (actually for paul-xxx's ROM's wifi is working except ICS as its in development..) happy flashin.. ;-)
thanks, i'm a bit confused about kernels and CWM , because:
When i installed the nAa kernel this " CWM " comes along with it and then i see this on the paul's thread :
Only 2.1.1.A.0.6 SE firmware
So, if i put back the original Kernel, i won't be able to use the CWM and therefore i won't be able to flash the paul's rom, and probably will have a bricked phone, because the rom that is on the phone is not compatible with SE original kernel ..
Am i thinking right here ?
Thanks a milion

U made me confused for a sec.. lol neways.. Its the 2.1.1.A.0.6 SE firmware not the kernel.. So what u can do is .. switch to the ROM (it will have its recovery) then flash a new kernel if u want (as for nAa kernel, any other ROM than his will not work with phone vibration(if not inbuild) n few feature.. So with other ROMs go with other kerneles like zp kernel, Fa kernel or which u like.. So first change the ROM then the kernel ul go good..
I'm still confused because it says this :
If you not 2.1.1.A.0.6, you need to flash FTF file via FlashTool.
PS: hacked bootloader is not needed. This kernel official. This kernel, it returns the firmware on 2.1.1.A.0.6
" this kernel official "
So what happens if i flash the stock kernel, and then the CWM goes away ? I can't then flash the paul's rom and the phone will not enter the OS because the OS i use does not suite for SE original kernel ...
ps. sorry for being such a noob and *****, but i just don't want to brick it.
