It's a combination of both, you'll need the drivers installed to be able to do it so read your guide again, watch the video again then try it. I unlocked my Ray using this method when I got it this week.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] 02S:
In short; I just have to follow the guide but everywhere it says 'Connect test pointers to 'these' points' I should ignore it and connect the paperclip to the points in the video?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] SXUsr:
How it's done in the video is exactly the way I did it, but it's simply up to you which method you use. Attaching wire to the USB cable seems a bit long winded to me.

Advice needed

Hi,

with all these good roms/kernels around, i feel a bit lost which one would be best for me.

May be someone could point me to a rom/kernel which will best fit this scenario:

I have 2 devices (ray for my wife, neo for me). Both are bootloader unlocked, ray is completly gb stock, neo is gb stock with doomkernel.

The most important points for a new rom would be:

- stability(dont want something that crashes with every 2nd call)

- good camera(at least as good as stock, improvements prefered as we both use cam heaviliy)

- good battery life

- i would also like to use chrome as browser which is currently limited to ics or jb if i'am right?

- as less lag as possible

If someone could give some advices which roms/kernels would fit or which i better dont think about i would be happy!

Edit: Could superleggaraV3 + cam mod 3.0(based on jaders) be a valid solution for ray? (too bad this rom has no neo port as i would prefer to have the same rom on both devices)

Thanks,

Frank

ST18a firmware on ST18i

I have been searching for hours and have been unable to find the answer to my question. :confused:

Will flashing the "Official" ST18a firmware on my ST18i brick my phone? Also, will this make me able to get 3g on AT&T?

I have worked with several Windows Mobile phones in the past, but never Android. I know that both phones have the same 2g bands. Is it just a "firmware" setting that makes the difference in 3g?

Accidentally flashed ST18_4.1.B instead of ST17_4.1.B

Hello forum

I think I terribly screwed up: I just bought the cute Xperia Active ST17 and accidentally flashed the ST18 ICS Firmware with Flashtool (one forum for different models must have confused me ;)). The flashing completed without any errors but obviously I can't boot the phone with the wrong firmware. If I connect the phone in flash mode (pressing volume down and connecting it to the pc) and then start flashtool I can start the process of flashing the ST17 firmware but it immediately fails with an error.

Is there help for me?

Thanks a lot for any suggestions!

suxi

EDIT: Victory! I just managed to do the following:

Connecting the phone in download mode

Starting flashtool and only flashing the kernel from the ICS ST17 package, unticking all wipe options. That worked.

Repeating the last two operations (unticking the wipe options) and flashing the entire ST17 package. That worked, too!

The phone just finished booting, lovely!

Quick question: I'm on JJ's Hybrid ROM v3.2 now with Sirkays V9.587-C kernel (the latest). I want to switch to his XRay v7.3.431 kernel. How do I do this? Just flash it and it'll be working? Or first flash it, then reflash the ROM?

And it is build from the 4.1.B.0.431 source, but JJ's Hybrid 3.2 is based on 4.1.B.0.587, will it conflict if I flash the kernel when I'm on the ROM?

Bootloader unlock for 2012 devices

Hi all Ray fans! I've asked some of my friends and they said that bootloader unlock is not allowed yet on devices manufactured in 2012... Nice to hear, but any idea? Because I think that's why not lets my phone switch to fastboot mode...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Web_E:
You can know whether you can unlock the bootloader by following method,

in dialpad type *#*#7378423#*#* , service menu will open. Goto Service info > Configuration. Look at below if it is written

Bootloader Unlock Allowed : Yes

Then it means you can unlock using sony's official method. If its "no" that means you have to pay for it.

There is an unlock method other than sony that keeps DRM data (the phone thinks the bootloader is not unlocked when it is), the method called test point method. This method is not applicable for newer devices (like 2012 made devices). Anyway the first condition is "Bootlader unlock allowed : Yes"

Install ROM with compatible kernel... If it is Cm-based, use CM-based kernel... If it is stock-based ROM, use stock-based KERNEL... What ROM are you trying to install? And what kernel are you on now?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chiyaanchinnu:
Solution

If you modify some media on your SD card, then reboot your phone. I faced this issue during my initial android days. But came with this solution myself. Some times it shows the content properly, sometimes the deleted stuff still appears in the gallery, to avoid all these restart your phone. Thats it.

When you download latest CM rom, in cm10 zip is boot.img inside, that is the CM10 kernel. You can flash custom kernel in flashtool via fastboot mod, when your bootloader is unlocked.

2. Now with downloaded CM10, i should enter recovery, wipe stuff, install rom reboot system?

Tnx in advance.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Wechy77:
The rooting method and cwm install method tells me, that you have locked bootloader. You must unlock your bootloader to flash custom kernel in fastboot mod.

The cwm status 7 error is: 1. You need to install the kernel. or 2. guaravcd post

ps.: You can unlock your bootloader by official way if your service menu say: "bootloader unlock allowed: yes", if no, you must make your phone simlock free, and then unlock your bootloader, but this second one only works if your phone build date is 12w13 or older.

If your bootloader is unlocked, then try this method for CM10:

"Open the ROM and go to "META-INF\com\google\android\"

open file "updater-script" remove first lines till "mount"

save.

PS: To avoid coding errors, etc. - Edit in Notepad ++, don't use Notepad or WordPad you may receive an error Status 6 (syntax error)"

@RivaultUser

Right now I'm on the FlyLight ROM which has very much free memory but less features; so you'll have to add stuff yourself (which I prefer). It comes with NOVA launcher which looks great, but you'll have to do some customizations to the homescreens to make it look nice.

The performance is great on this ROM.

Or you can try JJ's Hybrid 3.2 which gives you an AOSP experience and is also a Lite rom with great looks, performance and a bit more features (I switched to FlyLight because I had some battery issues on Hybrid 3.2, but not everyone had those issues so I recommend to try JJ's Hybrid 3.2 first).
