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!
Lately,i see many of noobs install a rom in dev sec b4 read what its requirement & end up with bricking.
My suggest, a filter in download link which is direct to some form to tick correctly a requirement for specific roms.(similar with membership form).This form can be determined by dev of the roms & real download link will be open if they tick a right answer.for exp;
Phone model-x8/w8 tick/untick
Root tick/untick
Recovery System
Xrecovery tick/untick
CWM tick/untick
Baseband
xx06 tick/untick
xx15 tick/untick
Unlocked bootloader
Yes tick/untick
No tick/untick
Kernel
Stock tick/untick
Costum(can edit by dev)tick/untick
I know this will be annoying for some of us but prevent is better than cure
Hope colossus will see this & consider it.

Not a bad idea
But it will be very difficult to implement it. Practically impossible as I see it.
This can be done on google docs, create a form there... easy to implement...

Looks like Just SoftBrick dude [hardbrick means when your phone cannot be powered on]
You Relock Bootloader? Unlock it again
Flash ICS nAa Kernel, Flash MiniCM9 as simple is that
Or Using Pcc/SEUS, Flash All again to Stock Rom/Kernel.
Then, Using s1tool, check wheter you phone Already Unlock bootloader or Not.
If Not, Unlock Bootloader First,
If Yes, Flash kernel, Then Rom
Dont Forget to FULL WIPE
Just My opinion

Do you really require a certain baseband version? (will vesion 1.0 not work?)
And
What does a bootloader do?
Just curious as to whether or not it was successful. Thanks. Please let me know if in the wrong section.
I dont understand and whats the connection of the place? You want to ask for help? We can help you. If your phone has this tag 11w29+ up then be very aware that you might brick your phone if it falls 11w28- below then just follow the instructions and your bootloader will be unlocked
What's the place got to do with anything?

None, actually. My english is better than my nepali...i have a W8 with 11W20
Just curious...i'll follow one of the guides here, but if there was someone, thought maybe i'd go through the process with him/her. To be honest, i just don't have the courage (yet) to do it, looking at the repercussions.

Yes, but...what's the problem? You can't unlock the bootloader? Or Flashtool throws error?

What kind of cm7 do you use?
Did you unlock your bootloader?
Did you install the latest Flashtool?
Do you have the latest nAa ics kernel in /flashtool/firmwares?
If you didn't unlock your bootloader, then you have to check the manufacturing date. If it's 11w29>, you can unlock the bootloader. Once you unlocked using Flashtool you have to download latest nAa ics kernel and move the .ftf into /flashtool/firmwares. Then you have to download the latest MiniCM or ISDX or ParanoidAndroid zip with latest gapps-ics. Copy the 2 zips to the root of your SD and flash latest nAa kernel with Flashtool. Then go to recovery, full wipe, flash the ROM that you downloaded and latest gapps-ics. Reboot. Done!

If you got a clue, welcome .
Watever happens, thanks Guys and Girls for all the non-profit job you do for most of us.

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:

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.
