[Q] Custom kernel and baseband issue

Hi. I am on GingerDX v024 now and i wanted to flash Alfs 8a kernel, and when I did, I stuck at infinite bootloop (Alfs logo>reset>alfs logo...and so on) I flashed then older 8 version, and even stock kernel but it didn't help. Only way to fix it was by flashing it back to stock 2.1 and again install GDX v024. So now there is a question: my baseband is 006, is it the problem that I'm stuck on bootloop after installing a kernel for this ROM? Thanks in advance!

You surely need a newest baseband xxx015. You can update your baseband by PC companion.
Then reinstall the rom, full wipe then flash alfs.

Thanks for reply Can I do this via Flashtool (because Companion doesn't work)? And which .ftf file should I choose? And can I do this on current GDX v024 or flash it back to stock 2.1??

Yes, you can use FlashTool. Download the ftf file from here. Isn't necessary back to stock 2.1

So if I have E15i, then I should go for "E15i Baseband 015", right? I'd rather ask ten times, than crying after bricked phone

Yes, you're right

[Q] Need help installing stock kernel and firmware

I have X8 with 2.6.29.6- nAA -ics-04 kernel and MiniCM9-3.0.4-shakira installed.
Phone is turning off by itself and it's really slow so I would like to install stock rom.
I tried by PC Companion but it doesn't recognize device.
Can anyone help me with step by step instructions?
Can I just update with SEUS? I read somewhere that I should flash stock kernel first but I can't find how to.
I tried to search thread for this, but there's nothing for beginners.

Now I really NEED HELP PLEASE!
I copied Ginger DX rom on my SD card and install it, since thread said it runs with stock kernel and nAa kernel. (On other thread someone wrote that I need rom that supports both stock and nAa kernel for easier stock kernel install.)
Now my phone only shows Sony Ericsson start screen and that's it.I tried many threads for bricked phones but all links are broke and the ones I managed to download are not working.
So now I have W8 and X8 (E16&E15) Stock Kernel and X8i_2.1.1.A.0.6_Baseband_015, I also tried Xperia X8 (E15)_2.1 (2.1.1.A.0.6)_Greek (by Leajian) but all of them shows only Sony Ericsson start screen.
Also, when I connect to SEUS it says I already have latest software and I can't connect to PC Companion since I can't turn the phone on.
Please someone help me, I've been up with this all night and need my phone in the morning.

are you on stock kernel already? simply flash the stock ROM via flashtool. do NOT flash the kernel. then reboot. you need to have pcc installed too. and install the drivers in flashtool's /drivers folder.
edit: you need the stock rom .ftf file. not the baseband and kernel.

Hi! I need some help in unbricking my Xperia ZR C5502. I flashed the Meow kernal and now its keeps rebooting. I need the stock kernal in ftf format or some steps to flash stock kernal..
I am currently try to use Flashtool but it suppports only ftf format i think...I tried one russian ftf extract and due to that my sony logo is back but it is still rebooting again and again.

Flash an original ftf firmware on your device through flashtool...

[Q] Coming back to STOCK rom , Xperia Z

What is the safest way to come back to STOCK rom on my Xperia Z? Installing update using Sony PC Companion will do it ?

Did you unlock your bootloader? If so Sony's update services wont help you. Did you make a TA backup?

Yes, I have unlocked bootloader , but unfortunately I haven't done TA backup.

As already stated, you cannot use official Sony tools to update etc with an unlocked bootloader.
The best solution is for you to use Flashtool to flash a stock FTF. My guide shows how to download and flash stock firmware: How to package and flash stock roms in FTF format
If you don't want to package your own FTF, you can simply download one from the Xperia Z general section and flash it following the instructions in my guide.

You will have to relock your bootloader to update via any official method. Flashtool can do this using the "BLU" button. Do not do this if you're using a custom kernel or you will soft brick your phone. Do it after flashing stock firmware.
You should then be able to update via PC Companion and OTA.
