Check that you have enough space on your SD card.
Have you got debugging checked?
thank you for your quick answer. everything worked perferctly. but i kinda have another question. . how do i install a new radio. do i have to do it like i would install a new rom: So Rename the downloaded .zip to "update.zip" and copy it to my sd card. and then use the patched recovery thing to load it ?? or do i have to go another way.

You're right, you install exactly the same way. Just follow the instructions carefully.
what instructions?
i renamed it to update.zip but it says cant find such file or smth.
for what els do i need to take care of?
now it seeemed to work out. but after installing radio and rebooting im back on the recovery screen. it says formatting cache for some minutes now. is it right?
this can take a while...
FYI, if ur flashing from SD via the recovery image you dont need to rename to update zip, just select the option from any zip file..

[Q] What is the procedure?

I want to install for my phone "XPERIA X10 Mini Pro" the latest modified version of android.
[ROM]MiniCM7 Pro - V5 Final (GingerBread 2.3.5)
What is the procedure?
Can anyone help me please...
What is the steps i have to follow?
You need to root your phone first.
Then download the Rom and place it on your SD card.
Then make sure CWM is installed, boot into it and do a NANDROID BACKUP.
Then do a factory reset full wipe and then install the downloaded Rom from your SD card.
If you search the XPERIA Forum you will find details on how to Root.
Hope this helps.

factory reset AND wipe cache and dalvik cache or else you'll run into problems
So my phone is rooted.
I download "CWM 3.2.0.1" and make a CWM sd card, but i don't know how to boot from CWM...within my phone.
Is the CWM the correct version or something else happens.
How to install CWM and boot from it?
Thanks.

1.Just download an app called rom manager and super user(it may have already installed in ur phone ,just check)
2.Then open rom manager,then u got a first option of flash clockwork mod recovery.By selecting this it will install the appropriate recovery tool in ur phone.
3.Then put the custom rom u hav downloaded in ur sd card.Then again go to rom manager and select install rom from sd card or u can also download any other rom from an option "download rom"
4.Then select the rom from ur sd card by scrolling down.It will show a menu of 3 option having back up exiting ROM,Wipe data and cache and wipe Davlik cache.Mark all three and press ok.
And done .Then phone will do its all work.Dont panic or remove battery and have enough patient for this because it will take a lot of time.Before doing this please recharge ur battery and back up ur contacts,sms and apps.Thats all and have fun
And yes it need some internet connection
I have problem with "rom manager"
My phone is "XPERIA X10 Mini Pro" it seems that is not supported...
try quick boot from the market
Thanks all, i made it...

[Q] TwLauncher problem, isntalling a new Launcher

Twlauncher problem, i get the loop of errors and force to close in my friends launcer unfortunatlly he is not rooted and we are trying to avoid hard reset because he ll loose all the data from the phone
this is a similar problem that i found in youtube and a way to solve it...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmprlsmHFgw
so the guy installs a launcher from his pc to his phone through the markets site.
the thing is that although my friend has 3G open the new launchers wont download so i found a launcher here in XDA in zip file to install it from the recovery menu, i flashed CWM recovery through odin and placed the zip file in the sd card but i had no luck finding it from the recovery (install zip from sd card) it says tha there is no file there, also cant find the storage on the pc when i mount it from the recovery so i am guessing that the recovery is not reading the sd card.
So finally my question is there a way to install zip or apk files through odin? cause i am sure it works or if there is a total diffrent way to istall something to SGS2 without being able to get in the menu it has to be installed through the recovery or odin.
Every aswer will be appreciated
Thank you all very much and i love this forum
Come on guys even suggestions would be nice...:silly:
If you have USB debugging on, you can push one to it via adb.
Alternatively if on ICS and you have a microSD card, you could use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719 to give you CWM recovery and create a simple CWM flashable update containing one.

[Q] Does my Omega installing plan need adjustment?

Hey guys,
I am completely new to this whole topic so I read several hours and finally came up with a plan for what to do to install omega when my Galaxy S3 i9300 (my first android phone) will arrive tomorrow.
If you spot any mistakes I would make (also in the files I plan on using), please correct me!
1. Upgrading to Jellybean with Kies
2. Installing CWM (File name is CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.5 - It's a .tar) via Odin 3.0.4 in download mode- I think I know how to do that
3. Rebooting in Recovery mode and creating a Backup File with CWM - I think I know how to do that
4. Saving the Backup file from the clockworkmod\backup folder on my PC
5. Rebooting in recovery mode and wiping data, cache and dalvik cache - I think I know how to do that
5. Copying the .zip file of Omega to (a folder called root??) internal SD-Card folder of the Galaxy S3 (File name is I9300_Omega_v31_XXDLJ4_Jelly_Bean)
6. Rebooting in recovery mode again and selecting “install zip from SD card” to install the Omega zip
7. Customize like a boss
done
(optional)
8. Realize something doesn't work properly and spam the forums with QQ threads OR Realize I bricked my brand new phone and cry furiously
Thanks in advance for letting me know if my plan needs adjustment

1. Upgrading to Jellybean with Kies
>>>> No reason to unless the rom instructions say to .
2. Installing CWM (File name is CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.5 - It's a .tar) via Odin 3.0.4 in download mode- I think I know how to do that
>>>Read the instructions first .
3. Rebooting in Recovery mode and creating a Backup File with CWM - I think I know how to do that
OK
4. Saving the Backup file from the clockworkmod\backup folder on my PC
OK
5. Rebooting in recovery mode and wiping data, cache and dalvik cache - I think I know how to do that
OK
5. Copying the .zip file of Omega to (a folder called root??) internal SD-Card folder of the Galaxy S3 (File name is I9300_Omega_v31_XXDLJ4_Jelly_Bean)
NO NO not a folder called root . Just place on your sd card .
6. Rebooting in recovery mode again and selecting “install zip from SD card” to install the Omega zip
YES
Fails to boot first time one it make take a while for first boot boot stuck recovery and factory reset .

Flash recovery
Do factory reset, than wipe dalvik.
Than flash Omega.
Finally reboot and enjoy
But I'm recommending InsertCoin, because it is easy theamble with better themes, very stable (still haves some problems, but reboot solves them), mostly no lags, good memory managing.

Hey,
thanks for your answer! I have to install jellybean first if I want to install a ROM for Jellybean, right? So I guess that's not explicitly in the instructions but it's still a requirement?? Or does Omega install Jellybean itself?
I am really not sure, but I think I have to install Jellybean first.

It worked! Thanks alot!
(For other beginners: I put the Omega zip file on an external sd card, not sure if it works with the internal one. Works without upgrading to Jellybean first.)

Gaaps problems

Hi XDA,
I recently install cyanogenmod on my Att m8 and can't get the gaaps. Everytime I install the zip, it won't show up in any of the folders in my TWRP. I tried to install it onto my micro sd then insert that into the phone but when I install from there it says that it can't mount /data or something like that. I don't understand why I can't get the .zip to show up. Should i switch to ClockworkMod because I need google play and the gaaps.
Thanks
I meant to say clock work mod recovery it sounded like I meant cwm was a Rom
