[Q] need confirmation of this version of flashtool - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does the latest version of 0.4.2.0 automatically recognize the profile of x8?
I am just wondering if I should use older version on a x8 or not.

Well. In the new roms of Racth(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914513) Is REQUIRE latest baseband version xxx15. And people with baseband 006 will never have these roms working property?

Hunn blagus. So it's possible to install a 015 in a device with 006. That sounds good. I flahsed my device with Baseband 006 - kernel 2.0.2.A.0.24.
Now that i know the Baseband 015 work in a device with Baseband 006 i will flash it now.
Good job to all developers. You guys rock...

How can I know if I have a X8a or X8i ? What are the risk of a mistake ?
Because I have already installed the new baseband provide by ratch without knowing the two versions of X8 ... That seem to work however ...
You said that you have X8a, so flash X8a baseband...
If you flash X8i baseband, 3G won't work due to frequency difference...

If you open your phone and look under the battery it will say E15i or E15a.
Hope this helped.

You can use baseband 15 on your phone.I also have E15i and is using baseband 15.If you are installing custom rom use baseband 15, if nothing else is mentioned in custom rom's page.If things fail you can use seus to get back to stock SE rom.

Ok i'm downloading now the 15 baseband for x8i. but i have one more question, it will install a new kernel 2.1.1.... but wil it delete my files, apps, etc?
No, it won't. Read there again and you'll see bold statement "This will NOT wipe your userdata!"
I read it but better to check 2x lol
Thanks
Hello, I have some questions.
My Kernel version is 2.6.29 / 2.0.1.A.0.47.
Can I use the flashtool to change my baseband from 006 to 015 without a problem, using blagu's baseband collection?
Thx
Yes you can.
Drakenfall said:
Yes you can.

Thx, I'm gonna try it later.
Only to be sure, to change my 006 to 015 I must use the 015 blagu's file, right?
Yes, use the file from blagus.
I have a 06 baseband, somehow I managed to flash miniCM 6 onto. There was a restart loop, but I managed to get around it by disabling the overclock. Can I just flash the 15 baseband onto it now?
the only requirement for basebands is to be E15a or E15i, according to your phone?

Try installing divers for your phone again. See that after you connect it to PC you have NO "unknown usb devices".

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!

after using SE PC COMPANION also still in 2.1.1.A.0.53
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using XDA
Btw, the 2.1.1.A.0.53 isn't your baseband, it is your rom, and in this case it is one of the last official stock roms for the X8/W8.
Your baseband is the odd alphanumeric string that begins with M and ends in either 015 or 006. Most ROMs and kernels require baseband 015.
Also, I remember some users having this problem before. Use the search tool and see if you can find the posts.

Yes I checked the website from sony (and some other).
Does all of those Tools works on W8 ?
Because I did my best (including asking for bootloader unlock key) and I'm unable to make my fastboot mode recognize on W8 hardware list
If you got a clue, welcome .
Watever happens, thanks Guys and Girls for all the non-profit job you do for most of us.
(btw : I just want to root my Xperia SP to be able to pull away some sony' apz that work underflow and make it 60% ram used without launching anything; this of course, make it slow !!)

Ya I think so.. You should pm one of the experienced dev or member who owns Xperia SP and has carried out or helped in the development of the same phone model.. :thumbup:
Sent from my Explorer A310e using xda app-developers app
I have the same unlock allowed: No...
You can only use stock based roms, only recoveries for locked BL, and cannot enter fastboot mode...
Use SEUS for repairing or reinstalling stock rom if u ever mess something up during rom installation.
