How to install CM10 - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Hello guys, many of my friends from FB use CM10 and I want to install it, but I see that is completely different. as in this thread doesnt explain clearly how to install.. should i first flast to stock kernel and stock rom with flashtool?

It's not required!
You just need unlocked bl
Flash kernel inside the zip
Boot into cwm
Do the wipes (all of them including formats)
Install the Rom!
Done! You have cm10 running!

Is required to install the kernel inside the zip? or I can install Lupus? so basically

If lupus is there,you can go for it!
Provided its Jb based

In this thread, it said that I need to flash the kernel at final..

Kernels can be flashed before or later.... It should be flashed!
That's the point!

Xperia U ICS Flashable Zip

I have just made a zip of the ICS FTF for a friend.
My questions are: is there one already and I just wasted my time?
If not, does anybody want to test it as I won't be able to check on my friend's phone for another two days.
I've removed some apps and rooted it.

There is none,as far as i know,n is it for st25i or st25a..please gimme the link,i'll test it n report back..also.does the recovery works even after the update..??
I haven't added the kernel, so I think the ROM would have to be flashed in recovery first, then flash the stock kernel in Flashtool. I could upload that as well if needed.
I could look into adding the kernel, I think it's just a few lines in the update script. It's unlikely to have recovery though. Don't know how to do that yet.
I'm not familiar with adding kernels because I've only tried with a phone that can't flash kernels in recovery.

As far as I know it is a, but I've changed the build.prop to i. I read as long as you don't flash the baseband it should be OK.

Thank you so much for the zip!
It actually worked?

Not working for me..stuck in bootloop..
Did you wipe caches and data before and after, and use the correct (stock ICS) kernel?

Put the FXP CM7 150 zip you download on your SDcard take you phone off and flash this:http://ul.to/n9bjkpvv using flashtools and then go to recovery and flash the FXP CM7 150. I am assuming that your bootloader is unlocked right? since you have flashed jellybean before.

Installed it used it for 20mins -
Smooth, jittery camcorder, foto camera works usable. How long that i don't know. Still the most stable is ZMOD with ZMOD kernel.

CWM or nAa?

What do I have to do first? Install CWM and flash the kernel, or just flash the kernel without installing CWM, I'm asking because I was having problems with flashing it. Please help

-First update your original firmware to the latest one
-root your phone with superoneclick or flashtool (program for computer)
-unlock bootloader with flashtool
-use flashtool to flash the kernel you want
-then finally you can enter on cmw and flash your rom

Is this a good idea?

Is it a good idea to install CWM before flashing the kernel, is it safe?

Yes.
And it will make the next process of installing the ROM much more easy.
The nAa kernel include the cwm, so no need to install CWM first.
But i had problems with flasging the kernel, I have a rooted phone, with unlocked bootloader, and it always says error. So I'll try again to flash it and can it brick my phone?
Sent from my E10i using xda app-developers app
If you're talking about a kernel like naa-14, i think that when you flash a kernel that it comes with cwm with it, so there's no need to instal cwm before flashing kernel. If you're getting errors then just try flashing kernels without installing cwm separately.

Help !!!

Is that necessary to rename any custom kernel to "boot.img" before flashing it (via FLAHTOOL.exe) ?
I want know this bcoz I flashed a kernel(not renamed to 'boot.img') and after that installed a ROM(for unlocked BL only) via CWM and got black screen or bootloop... Please help meh..
Sent from my MT11i using xda app-developers app
You can change kernel name,but make sure you type in command prompt with the same name with kernel.
Flash kernel must from a PC ,cant flash through CWM.Before flash kernel make sure you have unlock your bootloader.
My BL is unlocked!!
What do you mean by "command prompt with the same name of kernel ?“
Please say in details...

When you renamed the boot image i.e (PACMAN.IMG)...you must type in DOS command prompt like this fastboot flash boot PACMAN.IMG .

Since you are using flashtool it is not necessary to rename the kernel to boot.img

No need to rename the kernel as boot.img.. But make sure the kernel u r flashing is compatible with the rom... Otherwise ur phone will not boot & u will face bootloop... Like GB ROM = GB Kernel, ICS ROM = ICS Kernel & JB ROM = JB Kernel

Dude just go to respective ROM threads and take the pains of reading:banghead: or else you will be reported very soon for creating unnecessary threads.. People are helping you that doesn't mean you will keep behaving like a noob

If you would read the rom thread properly no one has told that the kernel is inside the zip. It is is written that you have to flash fusion 5.4.
