Excuse me, am I blind. How much WM6.5 Roms are you seen here in this Xperia Tread. Do you have a X1 ?
Sounds like someone who does not apply hardSPL to his X1 before trying to flash a cooked rom...
"it doesn't work"
doesn't tell us how to help you!

Come on guys, a new user ....... let's try to give him a hand:
1. READ the fist xperia thread.
2. READ the second xperia thread.
3. etc etc
Basicaly: install hard spl (hard spl is the pretection against flashing these roms)
Find a rom that you like (most of them have few screenshots in the thread) and flash.
Enjoy. Or flash the next one.
Simple i guess ........ but remember ..... READ the threads. Will give you all the ideas you need.
G.
Wheal I have read them... but don't get it really, and yes, I have X1 for a long time... Since it is out there and wanted to update it. I tried to install from that guy as I said but it doesn't go...
I know You probably don't wanna spend your time helping me "noob" but please, how can I do it? I read everything but there is just so many things to do that I get lost... If any possibility that someono wants to help me out and put on my X1 I would like that very much.
The post just above yours details the procedure, and if you look at the stickies, the apps you need are there.
1) Install HardSPL
2) Flash ROM
3) Steal underpants
4) ???
5) Profit!

NO.
I can't find it. I searched for that "hardspl" and can't find it.
OK. I'd like to be tolerant and helpful but are you that stupid? WTF there are tonnes of stickies at the top of this forum. Here is the direct link to the HardSPL thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218
Read it, understand it and come back if it still doesn't work AFTER YOU HAVE READ IT.
There's even a video on youtube of the whole process somewhere.
Damn, so many threads lately of people asking to be spoonfed information that's CLEARLY AVAILABLE. Stop being lazy.

Ok, I'm sorry that it seems this way, but I really have read lots of things, I'm not stupid or lazy, I really read loads of posts but didn't find this one.
Ok, later I'll try. So basically what I need to do is run 1st this "X1_HardSPL_v1.zip" content and than after that is finished I have to run for example "WM65_ROM_X1i_23060_SB12_Sonblack" rom and that is it.
I'm asking so much questions so that I don't do harm to my device.
Thanx.
If you don`t understand the post from Hard-SPL and flashing roms, plz. let it be. You crash your famous X1. Stand by your WM6 original SE X1 Rom.

Yes you're right. You have to install the hard-spl first and after that you can flash an custom rom to your phone.

Update not available?

Hey there. I'm relitavely new here, but i've downloaded a few things from here in the past (Mostly apps and games). Now i've come unstuck with trying to upgrade the ROM on my touch HD. All I really want is to update to the Windows Mobile 6.5 version for it. Now, I went onto the HTC website to download the update, and put in my S/N number. (HT844KD03498 - I presume i'm okay to post that?) It says it's not available for my device. This has stumped me.
If that update isn't the best for the phone, and anyone could suggest/help me out a bit with getting a custom ROM, that would be great. I have read the thread about it.. But it would be a lot easier if someone could skype with me, or something like that. I really, really don't wanna mess it up.
Thanks in advance, Remmy.
yeah, we never got an update because our blackstone doesn't have a windows button... But we've got XDA so it doesn't really matter . If you follow the instructions in this guide there really isn t much that can go wrong. And if you're looking for a rom, I recommend KWBR
Okay, thanks.
I assume you mean - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460640
The only thing is I would really like someone to sort of guide me through the process on skype, or another form of chat. It's just that safety net of 'I can ask this guy while I do what i'm supposed to do'.
Any offers? :$

In my opinion u should defenitly leave ur phone @ STOCK
Cause if u really need a step by step how-to plus you are not "smart enough" to search for your self in this forum and or the web, then i guess you will brick your phone.
Imo rooting mobile devices and/or installing custom Roms / Firmware is something for Users with some experience. And you DONT get this experience with just asking and following a step by step guide ... you have to understand what you are doing!

Nah, I cannot take this comment of you as you state it. ALL of us, I repeat ALL have been noobs somwhen and wanted/needed to be taken by the hand and helped out, so always try to guide them kindly to whatever they need and they ll be fine. The forum was a bit cleaner and smaller, when I came in, but still with a lot of nice and helpfull guys.
I think a good beginning is to read my noob how to (see signature) and then simply search whatever you need + optimus black in search up in the right corner and you ll get whatever you need

theres no official ROM because there hasn't been a need for Samsung to release one and because very few people have this device which is an amazing device, its not been leaked either
Tell me, what do you mean by you have installed a custom ROM 8779? that OS version isn't available to us, we have only 8773 from MS
To my knowledge There are no custom ROMs, there are no official ones, there are no OS dumps, there is no access to use the download mode, or change the bootloader, there is however limited access to the diagnostic mode, parts of the EFS, parts of the RAM and several other low level areas of the device outside of the OS

i cant get the rom , they wont share them
i cant upgrade my phone too (the wp 7.8)

very interesting, and your English is fine
there are three possibilities
1, Its faked, its so easy to change that info screen
2, its real but they didn't install a custom ROM, they have gained access to the 7889 CAB files and updated the OS manually
3, its real and they updated the ROM somehow
if you would mine could you try and dump the ROM, using QPST Here
its not easy to use and don't ever hit any buttons marked "write" if you want to help ill type up instructions, but essentially you need to make sure the SPC is correct, then download this, then put your phone in to diagnostic mode using the diagnostic tool, add the COM port to QPST and connect to the phone, click start clients, then software download, click multi image, then fill in where you want it and click start, your phone should restart in to a download mode and after that I don't know what will happen, to get out of the download mode you just unplug and hold the power button until it turns off.
ill write a more detailed guide if you want to help

To stop the Demo demonstrations, you have to install ROOT WP7 TOOLS.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867048
Then in explorer you have to go to the Startup folder (windows\StartUp) you have to create a new folder and copy all files except RetailDemoService.lnk.
Then in Registry, you have to go to shortcuts folder (Local Machine\System\Explorer\Shell Folders) and change the StartUp file, change the value data from \Windows\StartUp\ to \Windows\StartUp\new\.
After this restart the device.
I hope i helped and I'm sorry the bad English.

Hey Dazza, I wish you guys the best in finding a way to develop a custom rom. I myself am trying to help get custom roms for my Dell Venue Pro. Anyways, I have this Samsung Focas S that has a demo and I want to disable it as of Ricardox6 instructions. I just did the windowsbreak, but I want to know do I install now that XAP Deployer or can I just jump straight to the wp7 root tool?
thanks again

[Q] Getting a stock .KDZ file

Hello,
I managed to bootloop my 4XHD (yay!), and I'm just trying to restore it to the stock firmware. The phone was rooted of course, I don't have CWM though if that makes any difference. Anyway I'm following this "super in-depth guide" on how to flash it, and it says I'll need a KDZ file that I want to flash. I have no clue where to get one though, so any help here would be appreciated. Also if you've got any tips on what I should be careful of when flashing, please let me know.
Cheers,
Hathz

Mhm, well I would kind of assume the information is stated in the tutorial (hence it's called a tutorial). Anyway, I got a KDZ from lg-phone-firmware and it looks like it sucessfully flashed V10A Euro Open (not quite sure when to know cause the dumb program doesn't say anything , but I assume it's done since It's basically turned on and I'm in the android basic setup screen).
Anyway there really should be some information in big red bold text in that topic for dump people like me, saying like "HERE U CAN HAZ FIRMWARE".
Will post again after I confirm that flash is sucessful and the phone is ready to be (ab)used again!
The phone seems to be working fine, I've already updated to V10F.
Anyway as I said, perhaps a huge link to the lg-phone-firmware would be a nice thing to have on that topic

Once that you're using the Euro_open, probably is better to upgrade to V10G.
I didn't saw any difference but, some persons said they noted some improvement...
It's up to you, now you know how to do it
And you're partly right about the tutorial.
Its a litle messed, starting with the phone name, etc... but, the OP should edit that, to someone else post another one, even if better, is a "little" against the forum rules (double posting).
Maybe one day some moderator do something about that
