What i did before installing a custom rom:
I rooted my phone using superoneclick method.
Then installed xrecovery V0.1. (with busybox and charm*something)
Made a backup of the original room using Xrecovery
How did i install the custom roms and what happend:
Renamde gingerxd v13 to update.zip and place it on sdcard.
Wiped cache and factory reset(fullwipe).
Install update.zip with Xrecovery.
(after my first attemp failed, i tried to wipe cache and factory reset after installing the room too)
Reboot phone.
Phone goes into reboot loop. First sony ericsoon, then the logo of whatever custom room i'm trying to install.
I tried the MiniCM7-2.0.7 (source)
Then i tought, what if i downloader a back from another phone? i got Floyo 2.2.5 (source)
Restoring this backup too got me into a reboot loop.
Final question(and probably the supidest one if the answer is yes)
Do i need to unlock the bootloader to install a custom room? The guides i used didn't mention it at all, and since it may brick my device beyong xrecovery's help i'd like a straight answer before attempting it.
I tried to make this post as clear as possible and maybe someone can point out if im missing something.
Very important thing: Did your baseband end with 015? If no, that's why you are having these problems.
And no, you don't need to unlock the Bootloader to install Custom Roms.
It ends in 006. Thanks ill be reading on flashing a baseband and report back. PCcompanion says my phone is up do date so i'll be using this. If you have a better alternative let me know.
^^
Edit: Is there a way to configure pcc to make the update for me? Like say im from another country were the update is available?
Use Flashtool, go here
Thanks Chris95X8. my phone is now running 2.3.5 gingerdx rom. everything works. The only thing that's driving me nuts is the notification i get when i lose signal. Any way to fix this?
Sadly it didnt work for me... I have tried out flashing basebands but it wont work. still looping around. makes me crazy.

Are you sure that you flashed the right baseband?
If you have, maybe try to boot phone without the SD card in it..

Hi!
Today i wanted to update my firmware just because Samsung Kies asked me if i wanted to. I couldn't have been more wrong when i chose to update.
The update froze at 3% and after a lot of time i unplugged the phone and ended up with a brick instead of a phone.
If i try to turn it on, i get a black screen with a "phone--!--pc" picture. I can enter Download Mode by pressing VolumeDown + HomeButton + PowerButton and i get an android logo with ''Downloading... Do not turn off target'' written under it.
My phone was never rooted, nor updated ( it remained with its out-of-the-factory OS and everything ).
For the past 6 hours i've been trying to use Odin v4.43 along with AriesVE.ops (the one from the well-known WORKED2 archive) to try and get recovery-clockwork to work.
So my questions are:
Given the fact that my phone was not rooted, how can i get my GT-I9001 to work again? Is this even possible?
Can i first root it in its condition, then flash a custom rom like cyanogenmod? Or do i need to install a stock rom and then try a custom one?
What other options do i have?
Everything i've tried so far with Odin froze while downloading and i have no other solution to this problem. Please help!

Yes it is possible as long as your device boots into Download mode.
No you can't root it in its current condition.
You need to download a stock firmware, flash it using Odin or Heimdall (recommended), then root it and finally install a custom ROM if you want.

Thank you for answering!
I fixed the issue. Tried different usb port along with a different version of CWM (5.5.0.4) which I installed with Odin v4.43. CWM 5.5.0.4 caused a bootloop, but i used it only to install CWM 6.0.4.9 from external_sd, so the bootloop problem was gone. Then flashed CyanogenMod 11 and now works like a charm !
I attached an archive with CWM 5.5.0.4, AriesVE.ops and Odin v4.43, so that anyone having my problem can solve it the way i did. But keep in mind that this version of CWM *may* cause a bootloop, so prior to installing it, you should have a working version of CWM on your external_sd. Use CWM 5.5.0.4 to install the better version of CWM from your external_sd. Also, whatever you do is at your own risk!
i am on Xperianze Rom v3.0.3 and got an update of CM, and when i flashed an update my device does not getting start, when i press power button nothing happen.
even i tried to reset my phone from back button, but still nothing happened. even my cell does not going into charging mode.
anyone can tell me what is the problem?
What update did you flash? An update for CM on a different ROM...?
If so, no wonder your phone isn't booting.
You'll have to flash an FTF file using flashtool. All data will be lost though.
As Gamm86 says, you'll need to flash a suitable FTF file. But in the future, do not install CM updates directly unless your phone has original CM software!
Xperianze is BASED on CM, but is not CM.
So I've rooted my Z3c using dual recovery method, and later on flashed the Rectify mod, and everything seemed to be working well until I wanted to flash a file in recovery (I know I had CWM working at one point) but it is not working. I found the little NDR tool in the Rectify mod and tired the various recovery options (previously I would just use up on volume key). Well this is when I started noticing it not working and so I tried the manual volume key approach and still it is not working. I installed busy box and have found that can sometimes cause problems with NDR/Recovery however I attempted to uninstall was going to try different location but that's broken now too... I think.
So anyway, my problem is, if I re-install DualRecovery it still does not go to recovery.
Please help me get to Recovery mode so I can reflash rom.
Thank You
Have you installed a different busybox, most others aren't compatible with XZDR and will cause this kind of issue.
I'll tell you what I did, I downgraded firmware using flashtool, followed the dualboot method to upgrade while re-rooting and confirming recovery along the way (this seems to work) then as soon as I install rectify (making sure to flash dualboot flashable zip file before reboot) I'm no longer able to access recovery, not manually or using NDR. I also didn't intall busybox yet.
Oh boy what now, I'm back to square one.
I'm an idiot, what's the rectify mod? Point me to a download link and I'll see if there's something in it that's causing issues with XZDR.
Edit : I see its rectify rom. Well it most likely includes it's own version of busybox, hence the issue.
