[Q] Problem flashing the kernel (ftf)

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
if boot loader already unlocked
for what your run mssm7227?
just unlock it again then flash the ftf file
but becarefull if u playing with bootloader it can brick your phone

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!

if recovery wasnt erased you can take the battery out, put it back in, turn on the phone and when the softkeys start to twinkle(be quick) press power+volDOWN to enter recovery from there flash a new rom, always before flashing remember to wipe data/cache and dalvik cache in recovery.
Try the new Echelon is great and LFD is gonna be updated next week.
i tried both these but i didn't make any resluts please help

Hmmm.... In my opinion its quite unlikely that the tutorial link i posted got no/bad results.
When Smartflash doesnt do the trick (asuming you did it right), well, thats bad
I got bootloops many times but i always saved my phone with the smartflash tool....

Smart flash worked ! my phone is back ! thank u bro :X
+ another question , now i installed germany rom 2.3.4 , if i wanna root it , which app should i use ?
Cwm injection, fduring setup. There is no tool which can do it yet...

Yes, I was on froyo... missed this part when replied.
But I think it could do the job, even if he is on 2.3, well, that's what google shows when I search for "rooting android 2.3".
Am I wrong?

If you have unbrick your ob with v10a, yes you can root with Gingerbreak 1.20.

No, you can NOT root any v20/2.3 software/gingerbread on optimus black with gingerbreak. It only works on froyo, even if it s called GINGERbreak...
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
method with smartflash tools :
* v10a + apk Gingerbreak
* v20x + flash superuser.zip from cwm

Okay, thank you!
Now let's be honest, this name is really confusing, right? Gingerbreak and only works with Froyo?
Maybe it's this way because by rooting your phone you'll be able to flash Gingerbread? hahaha.
Just sayin'.

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.

So isnt it mandatory to root bfre flashing? I mean hw can v flash without rooting??

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..

Some help
I dont know if this can help you but, here is a great tutorial to go back to stock 2.3.6. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255305 )
Since the hotfile page is shut down, here is a link to download working firmware (I am using it) http://getwapi.com/down/dir/rar/IGw...&dsid=3oh7jy.ca13a2a94308e8caeecddd9a2dad0f9a
Heads up. If you have a gt s5570l then unfortunately, this will not work, and you can end up with a bricked phone. Hope I helped
