[Q] X10 Mini E10i with Locked Bootloader - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

hi! I have x10 mini e10i and want to install custom rom even if its just running on 2.2 or 2.3.
My phone is 2.1-update 1, rooted, cwm installed but locked bootloader.
I can see some post that you can install custom rom on locked bootloader and stock kernel
Can someone make a "NEW" tutorial on how to install custom rom on locked bootloader on x10 mini e10i (not pro).
Thanks.

Please use SE tweaker tool to root and install CWM Recovery. SE Tweaker tool (also works on X10 mini): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462278
Then restart your phone and press the back button repeatedly to boot into CWM Recovery. Wipe data/factory reset then flash the ROM that you want.

but im already rooted and have cwm recovery installed. Is that is another way of installing custom rom on locked bootloader?

You have to use a ROM that supports the stock kernel. So all you do is download a ROM zip and flash CWM Recovery. An example is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201116 It should work on X10 Mini BTW.

I finally installed cm6 on my phone. But i still have problem. It always restarting after the sony ericsson text (not the logo) but sometimes it can open 'til the homescreen but still it will shut down automatically.
I tried pc companion but when i try to connect my phone, its just restarting all over. I thought if I would install a custom rom, it will repair the phone.
What's the difference between flashing the phone via pc companion and installing custom rom via cwm recovery?

PC companion flashes stock ROM while CWM is used for flashing custom ROMs. I suggest you to use flashtool to flash a stock ROM

Flashing the 2.1 FTF with flashtool will reset your whole phone and it should fix your problem. If it doesn't, it means that you have a hardware problem.

can you give me a link of 2.1.1.A.0.6 tft for e10i?

You can use the 2.1.1.C.0.0 ROM. It was an update for the x10 mini pro in certain areas, but it will run on the x10 mini too, since there is no hardware specific stuff in the ROM itself. You will probably lose root and cwm though when you flash it.
I've got an 'undressed' 2.1.1.A.0.6 I made for myself in zip-format which includes root and cwm, but i took out all the google stuff, so there's no market in it.
If you want to know if your phone is ok, just wipe everything and install the 2.1.1.C.0.0.

Whilst your concerns are valid, you have posted this thread in the wrong forum. This doesn't belong in the dev forums, it belongs in the the Question and Answer forums here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1152
P.S. xRecovery is pretty much redundant now for roms higher than Android 2.1 eclair, as ClockWordMod (CWM) Recovery is what everyone uses. There is a .zip you can flash in xRecovery which upgrades the recovery to CWM recovery which will be the recovery you need to install mini cm7, (however if what you say is true, that the moment you turn your phone on and repeatedly press back it doesn't enter xRecovery, then you will need to use Sony Ericsson Update Service or PC Companion or the Sony Ericsson website software page to repair your phone, then you will need to root your phone again and install xRecovery) ; here is that .zip that upgrades your xRecovery to CWM recovery: View attachment CWM3_for_xReC.zip Good luck

[Q] How to get back to the original X10a firmware and Kernel?

Hi!
I flashed my X10a using Feralab rom and DomKernel V6 and everything is ok. However, I have to take my X10 to the repairing center because of an old problem in touchscreen. So, I'd like to know how to flash back my X10 with original Sony Ericsson rom and Sony Ericsson Kernel. Where can I find this rom and kernel?
Thanks!
Go look in flashtool thread you will find out ftf files... Download one for your region.... And flash through flashtool
Sent from my X10
Download the original 2.3 release from SE (or rather only S;-) ) install it through PC companion. It will wipe everything though. If you do a backup of your current rom, you can root your phone when you get it back and restore the backup.

Just use the repair mode in SEUS or PC companion
Ok. Thanks but, will it recovery the original kernel as well? Because I have a backup of the firmware (rom), provided by xRecovery, and when I recovered it, the DomKerel still there..

Thanks again, but I tried to use the SEUS and PC Companion. However, both are saying that I've already have the most recent software and I cannot do nothing more. I'm desperate.. I have to leave home and take my X10 tho the repairing center in 1h but I cannot recovery this.. The rom is already recovered, but the kernel no..
What can I do?
Thank you a lot!
try restore mode in it.
If not then there are generic 2.3.3 or 2.1 files in thread flash them through flashtool
kernel are included in them
sorry the only working link I found was for x10i ....

I had problems when tried using the new version (0.9.9.0) of Flashtool with my X10 mini (E10) .

I also did complete factory reinstall with SEUS. Not sure it was necessary but if you do- make a full backup before!

I would recommend to try the older version of Flashtool (0.8.6)- you can find at the "Previous release" tab at the download site (http://androxyde.github.com). Don't forget to install the drivers from the \Flashtool\drivers folder.

i guess you are new to this phone. you have a soft brick. install Sony PC companion and go to 'support' and repair your phone manually by following the instructions there. nothing to worry.
next,you cannot install minicm9 without unlocking bootloader and without unlocking boot loader, you can't flash custom kernel required for minicm. unlocking bootloader is a bit risky. remove your battery and look for the digits in the form of 11w29. if your phone has anything equal to or above 11w29 (like 11w30 or 11w44), you CANNOT unlock bootloader. you have to flash roms compatible with your custom kernel. so better stick with the stock kernel if you don't want to risk it. i suggest you could try kuyadroid or gingerxperia or froyobread or honeyfroyo

ROM flash
[Thank you 666shanx! Yes, it helped. Yes, I am new. It is my wife's phone which is fed up with the system (slow, small RAM menory), but she loves this hardware (red, small, hw keyboard). So I wanted to install other version of system to improve it.
I have 11w6. it means I can unlock bootloader. But, if could help me to flash the stock roms to improve the system, maybe I would do it like that.
Am I right?
Thank you!
Yes you could unlock bootloader. But you don't necessarily need to. Try flashing 'kuyadroid'. It installs on stock and DOESN'T NEED UNLOCK!
There are a lot of threads which teach you how to unlock. Search a bit for them. You need flashtool for it, which I guess you already have. Here's one

there is no miniCM roms for x10 (x10i); only for x10mini (e10/robyn), x10minipro (u20/mimmi) and x8/w8 (e15/shakira)
and each rom version is device specific and wont work on other devices.
I've already explained to him that minicm roms do not work. I've given him a link of roms which work on all the phones I mentioned...

[Q] Is the phone bricked?

Hi, I came from 2.1 baseband M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015. I rooted my x10 mini pro, installed cwm and after that I installed CM7 mini, and now the phone is stuck on the sony ericsson logo. How can I revert this? Is there any metod of flashing original software through windows instead of the recovery on the phone itself?

Which ROM did you choose? If you chose MiniCM7 by nAa it won't work on the stock kernel. You have to either flash a ROM that states to work on stock kernel, or flash the kernel that is recommended by the ROM you chose.

If you want to taste GingerBread, go with BPaul's MiniCM7Pro ROM, install it the way you installed MiniCM7, but that one will run on stock kernel. Only downside is that it's a bit slow.
You can speed it up a bit by using These modules.
When you've donwloaded the ROM, open it up with 7-zip or Winrar (don't use the windows native way, it will mess up the proper compression, rendering the ROM unflashable), then navigate to /system/lib/modules and replace the ones in there with the ones from this zip.
After that, install it through CWM onto your phone. Good luck

When you've donwloaded the ROM, open it up with 7-zip or Winrar (don't use the windows native way, it will mess up the proper compression, rendering the ROM unflashable), then navigate to /system/lib/modules and replace the ones in there with the ones from this zip.
After that, install it through CWM onto your phone. Good luck

The problem is I can't access CWM, the phone is stuck on the sony ericsson logo as I've stated above. Can I install any ROM through the pc?

This is true, didn't think about that. The thing is, on the custom kernel used with MiniCM7, CWM is built-in, so there is no need for it to be in the ROM. that is why you lost it. You should be able to just install it again though, but maybe it's best to do a repair with SUS or PC Companion first and then go though the steps again.

You're on the SE logo when you boot up the phone, so you CAN do everything with it in regards to repairing firmware (SUS is Sony Update Service, used to be SEUS, Sony-Ericsson Update Service).
And don't be a ****, you've opened a thread here for your problem, and you're getting help, so there is no need in posting the same question again in a different thread.

As long as you don't mess with the bootloader and custom kernels, there is no chance of actually bricking this phone beyond repair There is always a way out.

You shouldn't have an SE-kernel logo on JB, it should be an nAa-logo Which CM7 ROM were you using before?
first it was original froyo 2.1 then i updated gingerbread(2.3 CM7).

I'm a bit puzzled by your flashtool output, even when installing the JB rom on the stock kernel you should still have root access, so I don't know what happened there.
I would suggest this kernel, but you may have to go through flashing back to original 2.1 firmware and go through the rooting process again.
So how to back original firmware will you please elaborate it?.I don't know about reverting.
Bro I reverted my phone to its original firmware by flashing.But dislike its original firmware.please provide me the correct firmware zip of MiniJB or ICS.I also reached at nAa recovery.

If you can flash that kernel i linked to you can use the jbmini firmware you already had with that.
