Hello!
I have tried to install MiniCM on my SE x8 (E15i)
My phone is rooted, xrecovery is installed, busybox installed, Bootloader unlocked
I run this from xrecovery -> 1 : msm7227
2 : MiniCM7-2.1.6-X8
3 : gapps-gb-20110613-signed
BUT when I try to flash the kernel ( E15_nAa-07_2.6.29.6-nAa-07.ftf )
It says flashing kernel and then flashing aborded
I havent done this before! Please tell me where iam going wrong, Because I dont know how to do it step by step!
I had come to xda because my x10 was slow after update
and it became better than before thanks to xda team and members! So it gave me the courage to try this on my x8 which I was not using because of Android os 2.1..
Help will be appreciated .. I know xda wont let me down

I don't you can unlock your bootloader by running msm7227 from xRecovery! Have you checked whether you are successful after executing msm7227 from PC? use flahstool-1 to check!

It is patched with cwm and when the smartflashtool ends and your phone reboots you flash superuser.zip from cwm.but smartflashtool wipes data so any apps you installed won't be there after this procedure.

With smartflashtool you only need to be able to enter software upgrade mode.then the firmware is flashed through the program and when it is done it reboots in cwm.from there you flash the superuser.zip and you have a rooted version.basically smartflash is a quick way to unbrick your phone since it takes some minutes for the whole procedure.except the patched bins that you have to download before which depends on your internet connection speed.

this is official rom released by lg, patched means only recovery image is replaced with that of cwm recovery for root purpose.. Its 100% pure stock lg rom. And before asking please search the forum, there is everything available here, you just need to search it..
Fm radio is there in v20e also because its stock rom.. Hope everything is cleared now if not please search the ob forum you find everything here..

I have had my phone rooted and am using GingerDX v022. I have changed my baseband to 015.
I applied to get my netowkr unlock code off my operator and they sent it to me. But when I tried to enter the unlock code, it would not accept it. Has this got anything to do with the fact that I have changed my phone?
If so, how to I change it all back?
Thank you.
ummmm what do you mean changed your phone?? what phone did you request the code for??? codes are only meant for the device that you requested it for.....if you mean rooted, mine was rooted when i put the network unlock code in, did you write it down correctly??? you can ask them for it again, it will be on they're system
Changed my phone as in, new rom, baseband etc. I was on the phone to the company, and double checked the code was the right one, which it was. They told me if it didn't work I'd have to send it away to get flashed.
I then assumed that the rom/baseband/root hace somehow interfered with my unlocking process.
swap your kernel to stock, and go back to stock OFFICAL rom, and input the code...i had to do that for the X10 mini pro.
Okay, thank you so much for the help. Would you be able to tell me how to do those two things? It'd be a great help as it'd been a while since I've done this kind of thing. And where to get them?
flashtool for flashing kernels etc http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=986697

Using Flashtool or SEUS or PCC will restore both stock rom and kernel simultaneously.
As for baseband, try with 015 first, if it doesn't work try 006.

Okay, and if install a custom rom again, will it undo my network unlock??

Do I just download the stock 2.1 Eclair ROM in this topic (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1425240) and and flash it using Flashtool or SEUS and then I can enter my code?
you WILL NOT lose network unlock, and not flashing stock BEFORE using seus has been known to brick phones. hence me saying flash stock kernel 1st. you can download the 1.6 version which i know 100% is in english, the 2.1 isnt in english and is pain in the ass
this is the 2.1 you want for flashtool

You have to flash it using Flashtool...
That's about it, afterwards just enter your code.
If it doesn't work flash the 006 baseband and try again.

I know I'm being a pain in the ass but things have to be spelt out for me. What do I download first? Stock kernal and then flash with flashtool and then put the 2.1 ROM you linked to on my phone and that's it? Can I flash both the stock kernal and stock rom using flashtool?
no no your not the 2.1 update is because it aint 100% english yes you can flash BOTH using flashtool. either the 2.1 update i linked OR the 1.6 at top of the thread

Ok! Which one of these files is the stock kernal though?
(http://www.mediafire.com/?8bce4dx39e4vp)
It's confusing.
sorry i was meant to say, you can flash the big download INSTEAD of the smaller one to revert, they include the kernel if i remember rightly. but this is stock kernel
http://www.mediafire.com/?ei7ecyzf5wc48qb (small one JUST kernel) i tend to flash that one to be on safe side BEFORE reverting to stock with the 1.6 or 2.1 big download

Step 3: INSERT a simcard thats not meant for your phone in
Step 4: Insert the code
Step 5: you should be unlocked

Stock Firmware Files (FTF-File and CWM-flashable-ZIP-File) for ur XPERIA Tablet Z WiFi 32GB
I am not a Developer so everything u find here comes without warranty! I tested the FTF-File and had no problems on my SGP312! But this
wont mean it is the same for u ... Whatever u do with the files u find here, u do it at ur own risk! I am not responsible for any damages!!!
Here we go:
FTF-File to use with Flashtool
this is Stock Firmware 10.1.C.0.370 from Japan
i guess it makes no difference whether it is Japanese or somewhat else!
DOWNLOAD
CWM-Flashable-ZIP to use u need to read here
this file is slightly modified ... for lack of time it is same like this
maybe root works out of the box ... ef not flash this one to make sure root is correctly installed.
DOWNLOAD
Maybe root is not stable ... dont know ... i could not test the cwm-zip-file ... ef so pls tell me! i can upload another zip-file
contending a modified install-recovery.sh file! Maybe that helps!!!

Thanx alot
I have a brand new xperia tablet Z jb FW10.1.C.0.370 model sgp311 16GB wifi with locked bootloader
Just to be sure before flashing this, how to do!
install flashtool and then flash this japense version off FW 370 and then i have root ??
+ exclude "partition"(because i got the 16gigs version) and "unknown" in flashtool
but what about my language then? if i OTA install my countrys version off 370 i´ll loose root again wont i?
Thanx a newbie
Nope!
As written FTF-file is stock... Atm u can't root fw370 straight away!
CWM Zip-file is modified ... already rooted... but with unlocked bootloader
u can root easily.
U gotta go back to fw344 root it and update Ota... for me root is
inconsistent then but read about working root in some cases
(I don't believe but some wrote it down so...)

Ok thanx
So if i unlock bootloader (i say yes) i can install cwm flashable zip from recovery+ superuser.zip, and then i have root?
whitout having to go back to fw344?
Or is it best to wait until binaries get updated with FW370?
:good:
is this a Japanese .370 version, or is it US one?

bravia engine as a really really good engine gettin the most beautiful colors out of XTZ.

thanks, but i'll pass. Not installing foreign firmware in my US XTZ. I've heard there are differences and some apps/features arent the same. Will wait until someone makes flashable zip for US SGP312 version.
@c0llal0, do you encounter the reboot issue while modify the write/read in RE at FW 370? seems i did not meet this issue while at 344 but upgrade to 370(stay rooted), tried stop ric or ensure the etc/install-recovery.sh with 'system/bin/stop ric', not work. Please let me if u could have suggestion instead of back to 344
thanks!
Unlocking bootloader makes this bug disappear.
Carved in this thread with my RAZR HD
Can anyone provide the same firmware for US version of SGP312?
CWM zip don't work over a cm build.. I get cod 6 when I try to flash that..
I guess u need to flash doomlords stock kernel first.

you should put Japanese version in the topic, like everyone else does, who posts firmware files. Otherwise it confuses people and some migh unintentionally flash your update on a tablet from another country and lose all their local apps and settings

If you do not know what to do after rooting I must question your reasons on why you want to root.
However, you may want to do it to learn about android and that is good enough.
There are numerous guides and how to posts in order to gain root on that FW, one of them is linked in my signature. There are now more direct ways to do it, but the one in my signature is good enough. Try that, it will mean some reading and learning, but that the joy in the journey

please search a little too. Anyways, wait for the latest update for ur phone. That will install 4.4.4 on your device and your build number will end with 108. Once you get that update rooting ur device becomes really easy. There is easy root tool available. Just download and start that program in ur PC and follow the onscreen instructions. Again, that will work only on 4.4.4 so wait till then.

You can do it. For that you need to flash an older 534 rom, root it and then install dual recovery and then flash the latest rom. I dont know why you are in such a hurry.
