[XPERIA X10 General] tourist.leo:
CM 7.2 on X10i, possible at all?

Hi,

I followed many tutorials to:

- root my x10i (I have superuser and busybox 1.19)

- install xrecovery 0.3 (working while pressing the backkey at startup)

- download http://code.google.com/p/freexperia/wiki/CyanogenMod7 which seems to be latest stable release.

I am on sony rom 2.3.3 with baseband 2.1.71.

Latest install instructions I found:

- you must be on 2.3.3 FW (including 2.1.71 baseband), in case u are not use the provided baseband package..(baseband71 ftf) before u flash kernel package..

-> OK

- if you can not see FreeXperia Logo on boot then you are on wrong SEMC Kernel and you need to flash included custom kernel

-> The version with custom kernel is a .7z. When I extract it, it doesn't contain a zip file for installation with xrecovery.

When I try flashing from the flash tol (using computer):

- Download The Rom..

http://ul.to/folder/22vedc MIRROR http://fiberupload.com/users/jerpelea

-> OK, trying with with	FXP130-cm-7-20120716-UNOFFICIAL-es209ra-KERNEL.7z

- - And Gapps...

-> OK

http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-gb...828-signed.zip

- Unpack rar which contains 3 folders, from the FXP folder place the update zip onto your sdcard along with the gapps zip.

-> you're saying unpack rar but the rom with kernel is a 7z and contains no rar

- First you must have unlocked bootloader, use the unlock tool provided further help please with this direct to the relevant threads.

- Here.. http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1253277

- And... http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1254087

-> OK

- Use then the flashtool to flash the fxp ftf(X10-custom-ftf) this will provide you with the correct cwm recovery and kernel.

-> Impossible, see problem above "ERROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="SECURITY_CLASS";ERR_DYNAMIC="SIN header verification failed"� "

- Reboot phone, keep pressing back key/volume down to enter recovery, from the menu wipe the device and caches then choose install zip from sdcard/choose zip from sdcard and select update-cm-7.2.0 and flash, again straight after do the same for gapps zip, now reboot phone.

-> I understand but didn't manage to reach that step.

- Enjoy FXPCM7.

-> I wish!

Can you give me a hand with all this? I'm sure I'm just a few steps away but for now I'm stuck!

Many many thanks!
