Here is what you have to do.
If you still have your MiniCM6 backup, restore it using a recovery. Full wipe, wipe cache and dalvik cache then power off your phone. Then, use Flashtool to flash back stock kernel.
If you do not have the backup, download MiniCM6, boot into recovery, full wipe, wipe cache nd dalvik cache, then flash MiniCM6. Power off and use Flashtool to flash stock kernel.
Done (hopefully)

I don't know. I think the question should be more clear

I'm sorry for that, I don't know and don't understand about flash tool or flash kernel..I'm really don't understand, I try to find answer and still don't know...could you explain me? Why do we do??
Sent from my E15i using XDA

First tell me which rom do you want to flash ?
We do the flashtool stuff if we want to install a kernel or sometimes rom.. But you can install rom through recovery also.

Look we use flashtool to:
1-flash new kernels
2-install recovery on stock kernel.
3-rooting the phone
4- unlocking the bootloader (last version)
5-installing apps.
6-creating bundles if we want to restore Eclair
----------//-------
To flash a new ROM:
if your bootloader is unlocked u flash a new kernel and then using recovery u flash the Zip file which is the ROM.
If u cannot unlock your bootloader then u cannot change your kernel and must use ROMS which support stock kernel.

Well he can use xrecovery if unlocking bootloader is not possible (?)

Did I tell anything wrong?
Yes he should use Xrecovery to flash new ROMs.
But he can't change the kernel or the phone will be bricked (softly)
Sent from my XPERIA using XDA Premium.

Oh yes..Lets see if he can unlock his BL or not
You didn't say anything wrong

If u don't know about flashtool this means that you are in stock kernel....
Two ways
First if you had made a backup with cwm you can restore it with cwm,that will replace the current rom with the one you had backed up
second,if you haven't made backup then install your old rom just as you installed it first time,put it in SD,go to cwm or xrecovery ,full wipe,wipe dalvik, install zip from SD....

Maybe he never tried to unlock bootloader...and that's the reason he doesn't know anything about flashtool

Yes,what did I tell?!
If he is on stock kernel there is no need to tell him how to flash kernels......
Sent from my X8 using xda premium

I mean if he can unlock his bootloader he can flash kernels.
And I say maybe the reason his bootloader is unlocked is that he never tried to unlock it since he is a noooooob.

thanks man ...are you a 100% sure?
and if i dont want to update the gapps the old ones will stay right?
and my installed apps will stay ? or do i need TB?

Everything should be OK if you are upgrading this same ROM and not upgrading to other Rom eg CM10 - > CM10.1 or something else.
Make a backup from the recovery before flashing.
Sorry for my bad English.

Hi,
And why is it fun?
Just root> unlock bootloader> flashthe kernel kernel (nAa/Oxydo-JB) if you want to Jelly Blur (CM10) rom what it takes to unlock the kernel
In this way, what you gave it a quick and convenient, and look closely and you can unlock the bootloader here on the forum you will find step-by-step instructions
Also good luck and best regards

Use x8toolbox

No problem

why install recovery and then again flash kernel when you can simply flash the kernel for cwm as tiestobunio said?

I dont understand it right. Iam now back on stock because i bricked the phone.
What i did is root stock, after that i unlocked bootloader, then i installed cwm and then i want to install kernel for jellyblur but everytime i do that my phone bricks. How exactly i have to flash the kernel? After flashing kernel i format system and data like in instruction. I rebooted then phone without flashing jellyblur i think this is the problem. I have to fladh kernel then go in cwm formatting system and data and without exiting flashing jellyblur is this right?

Problems here...

Hey guys... so, I wanted to install cm9 on my phone. And this is what I did. I flashed Naa ics kernel, and tried to flash minicm9 . I did a full wipe. And it didn't work. The log said something about I16. I don't know.
So,ive read that I should flash minicm 3.0.4 and wipe nothing then flash 3.0.5. And,no luck.
Please guys,I really need help. Please.
Thanks in advance.

Rom Installation aborts?
If yes this may cause by removing build.prop(or localprop), flash another rom (gingerbread recommended) then do wipes & try installing cm9 again.
