Need help to update from GB to JB. - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I have a X10 currently runing Fera's GB rom, the bootloader is unlocked. But I want to flash JB in it, so do I need to flash a JB kernel first in order to flash a JB rom? And if so, can anybody send me the JB kernel plz, coz I cant seem to download it from Fera's website. Thanks a lot.

you need to flash the kernel and then the rom using recovery

Booting
Sometimes I get a wlod and booting takes forever. what can be done?
does pc companion repair flashes back the kernel and baseband??
Thanks

[Q] How to Change/Switch Custom Kernel?

Hi there, i am currently using Wolfbreak's TW009 with BB.54 and zKernel, but i want to switch to Goro's 3.60 kernel (or 3.62) can i just flash Goro's kernel over zkernel or do i need to go back to Stock kernel first?, in that case is there a way to go back to stock kernel without resetting the whole thing? o.o
EDIT: i just flashed the new custom kernel over the old custom kernel, it worked

Make sure ya get all files needed before doing anything Ya need to (1) unlock bootloader, then (2)flash required Kernel for ICS. Then (3)get to the recovery mode provided along with the Kernel.Next, (4)flash the ROM and there ya go, (5)Reboot and Enjoy. Hope Helps

To be precise, If ya in locked bootloader status, full wipe and clear cache partition (note these action will getya System Data wiped along) will get ya back to stock kernel everytime. If ya in unlocked bootloader status, just get ya Stock Kernel for Unlocked Bootloader X10 to be flashed via flashtool, then ya will get it worked, your ROM won't be affected. Just RAM and governors and little tweak added within the kernel you flashed. Hope helps

Cant you enter into flashmode????
Question
Need More details:
1)Locked or Unlocked Bootloader?
2)Which stock kernel you flashed? Downloaded from?
3)[If Locked Bootloader] Can you enter xrecovery? If can, make full wipe, clear cache partition, install new ROM via "install custom zip from SDcard.
4)[If Unlocked Bootloader] Try flash some custom Kernel for Unlocked bootloader like DooMKernel, see whether it reach recovery mode or not.
Sincerely,
whitefang
If can, pls kindly hit thanks button as an appreciation
YES

[Q] ROMS not works.

Hi Guys!
I had root my Xperia Mini Pro and instal CWM.
I'am on GB.
When i instal a ROM, Real ICS or Real ICS lite, i can see only sony ericsson logo.
I waiting during 15min, and nothing has change.
Now I unlock bootloader , but i always see only sony ericsson logo, when i start the phone after rom installing.
What can I do?
I never had there problems with my old x10.
PS: "From the downloads section, download kernel installation package and extract the folder."
Where is this section? Where can i download kernel instalation package? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27376017&postcount=2)
I'am sorry for my very bad english.
every rom has its specified kernel
For stock based ICS Roms you can flash
Rage Kernel(v3.2)
Krsh Kernel
Mesa kernel
for CM 9.0 flash the kernel included the zip file by FXP
there are some kernels for GB roms as well you can search them
So, if i want to instal RealICS rom, i must instal first the rom and next i instal specified kernel with fastboot, yes?
Beacuse RealICS dont work with stock kernel.
PS: If i flash Krsh kernel and next i instal a stock rom with flashtool, Krsh kernel is remplaced for stock kernel?
First kernel, then rom.
And, make sure u have unlocked bootloader to install custom kernel.
Or, u can use rom which based on official ics. Like expeacer rom.

Hmm, it is complicated ; o
I'm sure, my bootloader is unlocked. I check in system info.
I'am on Stock GB , rooted with CWM and unlocked bootloader.
And now i want to instal RealICS. I have to instal Krsh kernel for ICS, but i have GB. How i do? First i have to instal Rooted ICS ? And later i instal Krsh kernel for ICS and I instal RealICS rom?
Or can i instal RealICS with rooted GB?
I'am lost ; |
D'oh. They already gave the answer yet u still ask the same question again.
U need to read, lots and lots of reading.
- turn off the phone
- boot to fastboot and flash ICS kernel
- when booting up ..enter cwm
- flash rom
- reboot
an0nym0us_ , that's right i have to read a lot. Beacuse i not understend a lot of words.
And i want to be sure for the instalation, beacuse i try a lot of times, and i had always sony logo.
Thanks for all the anwers ; )
Now i go to instal the rom.
I follow caer_ayu's tuto.
do a full wipe
and
format system (optional)
before flashing new roms
good luck m8
My guess is u didn't do wipe data in recovery before flashing the rom, hence the stuck at boot.
Good luck.
First things look complicated. Once you understood the basics all is much easier.
Most custom roms need custom kernels. Custom kernels can only flashed with unlocked bootloader.

I did all wipes and formats. But with the stock kernel , RealICS dosen't work.
But now, i had follow caer_ayu's mini tuto and that's work!
Thanks for you all, for all anwers! THANKS!
I was confused with kernel instalation, now all is ok.
Thanks one again!
And sorry for my bad english.

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:

[Q][SOLA]-Some questions about flashing stock ICS .54 from eXperience v.1.1 by Divaks

Hi guys, i've unlocked my bootloader and i've rooted. I flashed eXperience v.1.1 by Divaksh (stock based) and i want to return to stock ics 'cause i want to try cm9.1. Now the questions:
1- Will i have locked bootloader again?
2- Will i lost my root permission?
and the last: can i flash stock ics via CWM?
thank you :good:
Nope. Bootloader is independent of roms & kernels so you wont lose Bootloader unlock
But you'll always lose root if you flash Stock. And if you want to flash with cwm, see if anyone has uploaded a CWM flashable zip for the firmware. Else you need to use Flashtool
Hope it helps
Cheers

So this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030261 would work just wiping and flashing with CWM?
Thanks for your help :fingers-crossed:
Yes I believe that ought to work fine
Enjoy
Cheers
Thanks man but the stock ics flashed by CWM and pc companion said me i had to update the system even if it was already .54 version and any attempt to update failed because of my unlocked bootloader. The same firmware flashed by flashtool didn't need any update and finally allowed my to boot "pure blood" ROM. Thanks anyway :cyclops:
