hey stuck on boot logo there are many questions like this ok consegregate........
now the answer before flashing any rom wipe factory resets ,wipe card partitions and wipe delvik cache using cwm and also keep your battery full .i installed cm7 rc1 by grif with this method.
and also use roms build for ace only hahahaha
Where's your phone from?
I had some problems flashing some roms for S5830 since mine is S5830B.
before installing any custom rom in recovery do a factory reset then wipe cache partiton and dalvik cache then flash the rom
My phones from India.I did do all the wipes and resets.Even tried flashing with sys and data mounted.Tried even after formatting system and data.But nothing works.The only rom which i successfully flashed through cwm is ginger real 1.4.

Ok guys n gals
I have an Xperia X10 which is locked to the Three network. I have rooted it and also installed xrecovery using the latest flashtool.
I have installed the link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353584 to enable me to run MIUI ROMS.
Basically it is for locked boot loaders and installs:
CWM5 and LockedBL.zip.
I have downloaded Xperia_MIUI_Engineering V02 via CWM5 doing a factory reset and clearing all user data and Dalvik cache beforehand..
Now.. ROM work fine great on everything except..... ha ha making a phone call!!
I have signal everything etc but when I go into an existing contact I get an Android crash..
"The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
The options are then Force Close or Report to MIUI which I have done both.
Any ideas anyone?

well, is usual that you have some bugs using roms with the locked bootloader, try different rom or FIX PERMISSIONS via Root explorer.
Im using MIUI Oodie Prime and i have to say that is beautiful, try that one, it is more stable than Engineering
I tried the Oodie Prime..after a factory wipe, cache etc.. Now after installation I get the 'Sony Ericsson' startup, the (CWM5 Recovery) XDA Developers has disappeared so I can no longer boot back into CWM5 Recovery and I now have it stuck on the Oodie Startup screen and no further. I have to remove battery to reset and then rebuild with generic Android 2.3.3 etc.. and re root and xrecovery..
Try a different kernel, I had the same issue, you can use either oodies fxp kernel or doomlord v06 kernel. I've tried both and prefer the doomlord one.

Okay I fixed it for all of the ROMS that I was trying Doh.. I was installing the LockedBL.zip before the ROM..didn't read the instructions thoroughly..Works perfect now with a full wipe and ROM install and LockedBL.zip AFTER the ROM install
Will close the thread now.. Thanks for all your help.

I own wt19i running stock 4.0.4 .587 on stock kernel 2.6.32.9-perf and I have locked bootloader.
I rooted it without problems and installed CWM. Yesterday I tried to flash icecream pureness V4 by sandy7 (for both BL), everything went ok, i cleared everything in CWM and in aroma picked my phone + locked bootloader, but after restart my phone stuck on sony logo...
I did tried to do it second time but result was the same. So i thought it may be problem with rom zip, so i tried to flash jjHybriD AOSP ROM by stanlin salu (again for both BL). This time phone passed through sony logo and stucked on walkman animation. For the third time I was forced to flash stock room via flashtool.
So what did I wrong/what could get wrong? I made root -> installed CWM -> wiped everything in CWM -> installed rom locked BL with success -> fail
Bonus question: do stock GB and ICS use same kernel? Becouse in topics about downgrade from ICS to GB I can't see anything about changing kernel.

Don't just wipe everything in cwm, see what's told in the thread of the rom
E.g. sometimes you get a bootloop if you wipe /system when it's not required!

Try again.
Make sure u are on .587
Wipe factory
Cache
System
And dalvik cache.
And than flash the rom
Select ur device in aroma installer.
For small apps..
It should be flashed after the rom boots up into homescreen..

Clear cache and partition inside cwm,or maybe you didn't flash a compatible kernel with the rom?

So here's what happened:
1. I unlocked the bootloader.
2. Flashed Nemesis Kernel using Command Prompt on PC.

Get a zip of stock based rom, mount usb from cwm and transfer it to internal storage. Flash it. You should be fine.
If that doesn't work, install flashtool drivers, get into flashmode and then flash a stock rom. Root it and install cmw via flashotool.
You will be ok... I have at least one soft brick every 3 months... But i'm just plain stupid sometimes...
