dixperia light version - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

desperately want to try this rom..but when booting into recovery it freezes..getting wlod! :crying:
using the kernel provided in the link i.e:
Semc_Debrand_Engine_Kernel_DX8
any solution?

No buddy, I don't know how to help you. Do you have unlocked Bootloader?

yup i've unlocked bootloader..desperately wanna try ur rom! :crying:

But I don't know how to help you - don't know the reason of not working Kernel....My suggestion is flash Stock 2.3.3 from PcCompanion and make EVERYTHING (root, busybox, recovery etc.) again. I know it's painfull but maybe somewhere is a problem that will be fixed if you start from zero. Best wishes buddy.

Hello.
Is your bootloader unlocked? Or you installed CWM using nAa's installer?
Thanks,
Rick

Do not worry.
Check the Downgrade to GB section here:
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?tstart=0
Steps are easy to follow and hopefully will solve your issue. And for ftf files for firmwares other than those listed there, search here on XDA.
And for your information, never try to flash a ROM using CWM by nAa's method. That CWM recovery is at /system. And most Roms replace the/system, and thus messes with the CWM on way. So, if you want to flash custom Roms, unlock the bootloader.
Thanks,
Rick
Hit Thanks if I helped in anyway

Sorry friend you do not have the full backup of your original ROM. Had it was easy.
I'll try to help you with a hint can not say that it will work. For I have not tried this.
Go here to download the ZIP file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792refente the ROM of your device. Then please make sure that you load on | You will need to charge your battery in another material. After that try to install the ROM ZIP with CWM. I believe this will work. : Cool:After I installed a wrong kernel LWW my phone stopped starting. I could not even outrar Kernel flasher so it was thanks to CWM that saved the life of my phone with Full Backup Original ROM that always has to be done before anything else.

Stuck on an error on FLASHTOOL and canot instal kernel or xrecovry or clkwrkmod

recently i unlocked my bootloader and was using FeraLab v20 ROM with FeraKernel.
after that i flashed kCernel_v5_1036.ftf Kernel.
When the flash was complete i could not enter in recovery mode and phone booted to the fera v20 ROM.
then tried flashing recovery mode via flashtool but no help.
Then tried flashing FeraKernel which i was using earlier but flashtool gave me error each time i tried flashing it.
The error is in the image below.
so help me.... i dont know wht to do know... im getting frustrated a lot. cud not find any help from various threads.
Look...this kcernel isnt finished yet, i think...this is project in development...but, lets try to help you...
First download latest Flashtool 0.9.8.0. and install it.
Download SEUS and flash STOCK rom with it. That will install and Stock kernel. After that, root your phone again via Flashtool( new one). Than choose kernel (Ferakernel, Doomkernel) to flash if you don't want Stock one, or just flash Bootmanager v2 by Doomlord, (to get Xrecovery, CWM recovery, and Bootmanager) via flashtool to gain access to recovery modes.
thnxx mate for ur help.. i flashed stock rom via flashtool and everythng is back to normal.... thnxxxxxx for ur help..:good:
Please Help

Have you unlocked your bootloader? I suspect not. This is what flashtools is referencing.
Custom roms and mods that work on stock kernels can be installed on rooted devices.
Some mods/roms make such significant changes to Sony's builds that a new kernel is required (MIUI, CM, AOKP). To install a custom kernel you need to unlock your bootloader.
You may read the instructions provided by the author of the rom., to flash kernels, you need to unlock your bootloader. Seek and you'll see.
Is that right? lol

Now you’ve flashed one ROM on the Ray I can’t see you stopping
It doesn’t matter what WE recommend because your experience of which is the best ROM may be different to ours.
Try them all – I usually change mine once a month. But in my humble opinion, the most cutting edge, fully featured, experimental yet suitable for daily use ROM is PAC. My little Ray runs smoother than my wife’s Galaxy S2 and has so much more swagger – to borrow from AOKP.
so you recommend PAC rom ? actullay i want to stay with my stock based smooth (ASOP) ROM. if you know something then pls recommend me

[q] please help!! Urgent!! My xmp permission's problem

Please can anyone help me out?? im running out of ideas of what to do now?? it all starts when i try to install sperience rom... now my xmp wont detect any touch at all?? recovery is also somehow lost and i actually tried to reinstall the CWM recovery but i always get this instead:
flash a kernel including recovery from flashtool
You probably installed rom for other device, do as said above or reflash stock
Yaa flash any custom kernal and flash any rom...
Be carefull in selcting the rom ....
Select rom compatible to kernel and ur phone...
Like if u flash ics kernel then select ics rom only ...

xperia mini pro almost bricked because of a custom rom

Hello guys, please forgive me if any of this has caused the slightest troubles to you
So,
i just rooted my phone a day ago and installed clockwork mod too...
i am a total newbie and don't know anything about this.... So i went searching for some custom mods for my sk17i or Xperia mini pro...
And i found one on this site http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2102979
So then i installed it from the instructions given on most of the websites... i had a kernel of 4.1.b.0.587 on the phone and i don't even know much about flashtool...
Now the rom is installed or whatever it is but the UI has completely changed and it's not like the pics on the site... It's just completely black... And the worse part is that i can't even access my settings menu on the phone... So now i am blocked from doing anything... i cant even start usb debugging and take off the root....
please tell me some roms for the phone or any other way this can be undone...
Oh and btw i also tried installing some roms from http://get.cm/?device=mango because i thought cyanogen is pretty famous...
But none of them gets installed... and i even tried placing them as updates but no luck :crying::crying:
please help... thank you so much

Hmmm...if i understand your problem correctly, you ROOT and install CWM on you Mango, then you flash custom mods...problem appears after flashing custom mods right????
Hmmm....okey, for you info, those custom mods are for CM10 Roms ONLY and i believe you haven't flash CM10 Roms FIRST before you flash those mods...you can't use those mods on STOCK ROM (GB and ICS)...its designed for JB rom only....No wonder your phone got black screen...you trying to flash some mods that isn't COMPATIBLE with your roms...you need to flash STOCK Roms back if you want to fixed your problem...
for you second question...did your phone BOOTLOADER is Unlock??? if is not then sorry you can't CM Roms without unlocking the Bootloader first....CM Roms mush use CUSTOM KERNEL not STOCK KERNEL and after Unlocking you Bootloader then you can flash CUSTOM KERNEL and CM Roms...
Thank you so much!

As far as I know, the kernel should be in the rom.zip (it's the boot.img). Extract it and flash it using flashtool or the fastboot tools
Otherwise search for a kernel for android 4.2.2 in Dev section and flash that one. Should work too
Sent from my Nexus 4 running Android 4.2.2
One thing to remember is, before flashing a custom ROM or MOD, ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP.
To be on the safer side, backup every week or so and keep the last two or three backups.

Your phone got almost bricked,No it didnt, First thing before installing a custom ROM clear your system,data,cache partition..did you do that?
ok so you have CWM installed..follow this exactly
Start CWM by pressing vol down when your phone starts up,Select Mount USB Storage under mounts and storage,connect phone to pc,transfer ROM zip file to sdcard then
format /system ,/data,/cache ,now select install zip from sdcard and select your ROM zip file from sdcard
Reboot System..
You should be clear now..
Hope i helped..
Regards..
PS :Certain CM ROMS can be highly unstable so i recommend checking out the bugs and everything before you flash a CM rom..otherwise ICS is always smooth and stable..and have got a lot a lot of mdpi roms on xda..thanks to devs..
EDIT: if u r on a stock kernel,then unlock your bootloader by following steps at unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com then flash a custom kernel that supports JB..look over at the index thread created by predator at the dev section..
then follow my steps above..
DO NOT FLASH CUSTOM JB ROM ON STOCK ICS KERNEL.IT WONT WORK.
