[Q]: How to install a Custom ROM - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi guys,
I have my sisters SE x10 mini. I have rooted and it is 2.1 android and also installed xrecovery. When I install any custom ROM like GingerDX or MiniCM7 and then reboot, i go into a looping of the SONY ERICSSON logo and never go into the ROM. But lucky i have taken a back up of the previous stock ROM and I am able to enter the xrecovery and restore back. I have tried several ROMS like SROM too and same result. Please help.

When you installed them, do a factory reset in xrecovery then reboot

To install ROM GinggerDX you have to install it through CMW Recovery, not Xrecovery.
to install MiniCM7, you must unlock bootloader and flash kernel nAa before instal the ROM.
for more details please read the installation instructions on thread ROM.

[Q] Need Noob Help for x10minipro

Hi I have a x10mini pro which I have rooted and installed xrecovery for.
The problem came when I tried installing the "slade87_MiniCM6_v5.0_XRECOVERY" custom rom because for some reason it sticks on the startup:
(viewimage)
My baseband version is M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-534040415
I can root and install xrecovery fine. But The main part I dont understand is installing the Custom Rom.
Could anyone help me?
when installing the rom did you do a factory reset?
if you did then try installing a different rom maybe that will work?
if none of them work try using cwm (ClockWorkMod)
Yeh it worked with a factory reset Thanks guys.
Btw can this phone download the latest flash player?

[Q] Really need your help, guys.

Can you make sure the rom you installed its all requirement matches with your phone ? like baseband kernel version ?
Before you install any rom. make sure u understand everything........
My suggestion is now flash your phone with any Official or 3rd Party flasher to restore its original state.
All you need is here:
MiniCM7
At the moment:
* The kernel you should use (in conjuncture with flashtool) is nAa-09 (given you have a X10 mini and not a X10 mini pro) with the following Baseband: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015.
* Then install MiniCM7-2.1.7 from your SD-card (rename it update.zip).
* Remember to wipe Dalvik cache! and flash Google Apps. Don't know if you have to do a factory reset from CWM-Recovery, but i would...

[Q] Can't flash ROM's after having CM9 ICS

How can I get to an other ROM or to stock.
On my Xperia x10 mini pro.

It says:
Code:
E:formet_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
I can't install ROM's, when i reboot the I am don't coming to the bootanimation.
I can't use the Update service it doesn't work, and PC Companion think my phone is a X10 and a update phone doesn't display.
Please help me
P.S sorry for my bad english.
try using flashtool with latest stock ftf files
Thanks, but it don't work now either.
I was downloading Update Service again, but then I install it an other place.
It worked, after trying to open it many times.
I will not use the CM9 ICS before the Wifi is fixed...
Sorry for my bad English
Kernel
I was trying again with the nAa Kernel.
It can't wipe data/factory reset now either.
But when I install Fa kernel, then it can do a wipe data/factory reset.
I have now the Semc Debrand Engine ROM, then the screen sometimes goes green. But it goes back again after that
I will try th Fa kernel on the CM9 ICS to tomorrow.
Sorry for my bad English
i m also using semc debrand engine,but with nAa kernel and working fine for me
Test on CM9 ICS V01 KANG
Hello!
Today I was trying the CM9 ICS on my phone with Fa kernel.
It works perfect but I don't have Wifi.
I don't know if this is a ROM bug or the kernel fall.
If somebody knows why the nAa kernel doesn't work on my phone comment please. I was unlocking my bootloader with Lord AIO Tool.
Sorry for my bad English
Kernel
I use the SEUS to get back to Stock.
When I was flashing the nAa kernel the it never comes to the Sony Ericsson screen. Do anybody know how I can use the nAa kernel without trouble?
Now I gonna go back to Stock.
I am waiting for the Miui form Paul-xxx.
I hope it gonna be using without kernel.

Try to use the Sony Ericsson Update Service.
You can download it from here.
Download
There can you get back to stock and then install the CM9 or Miui v4 or an other ROM.
Enjoy

Please use SE tweaker tool to root and install CWM Recovery. SE Tweaker tool (also works on X10 mini): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462278
Then restart your phone and press the back button repeatedly to boot into CWM Recovery. Wipe data/factory reset then flash the ROM that you want.

but im already rooted and have cwm recovery installed. Is that is another way of installing custom rom on locked bootloader?

You have to use a ROM that supports the stock kernel. So all you do is download a ROM zip and flash CWM Recovery. An example is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201116 It should work on X10 Mini BTW.

I finally installed cm6 on my phone. But i still have problem. It always restarting after the sony ericsson text (not the logo) but sometimes it can open 'til the homescreen but still it will shut down automatically.
I tried pc companion but when i try to connect my phone, its just restarting all over. I thought if I would install a custom rom, it will repair the phone.
What's the difference between flashing the phone via pc companion and installing custom rom via cwm recovery?

PC companion flashes stock ROM while CWM is used for flashing custom ROMs. I suggest you to use flashtool to flash a stock ROM

Flashing the 2.1 FTF with flashtool will reset your whole phone and it should fix your problem. If it doesn't, it means that you have a hardware problem.
can you give me a link of 2.1.1.A.0.6 tft for e10i?

You can use the 2.1.1.C.0.0 ROM. It was an update for the x10 mini pro in certain areas, but it will run on the x10 mini too, since there is no hardware specific stuff in the ROM itself. You will probably lose root and cwm though when you flash it.
I've got an 'undressed' 2.1.1.A.0.6 I made for myself in zip-format which includes root and cwm, but i took out all the google stuff, so there's no market in it.
If you want to know if your phone is ok, just wipe everything and install the 2.1.1.C.0.0.
