Xperia J - Please Help About Cyanogen Mod 10 FXP209 - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

Hi everyone...
I need help about putting CM 10 to my Xperia J [ST26i]
My Xperia came with 11.0.A.7.5 firmware.
First thing I do is Unlocking Bootloader - which is successfull...
Second is trying to Root it...
So I have downgraded to 11.0.A.3.28_WE firmware then rooted it.
Then I decided to put a CM10 FXP 209...
Everything is continued without problem...
Untill I'm on writing "boot.img" to my ST26i...
I've tried CMD and Flashtool but both says "Device must be rooted, are you root?" or something like that...
But my device is already rooted on 11.0.A.3.28_WE firmware...
Do this have to be rooted on 11.0.A.7.5 firmware?
Also I have tried to do it via manuel.
I was install CWM and enter it wiped device, but CWM can't find zip file to install or update.
I was copied with both names "blablablaFXP209.zip" and "update.zip"...
Then CWM is freezed and my device stucked at black screen.
After that I have installed 11.0.A.3.28_WE firmware again and rooted it...
What should I do now?
Do I have to unlock bootloader again?
1 more thing to ask...
I have a Xperia ArcS too, can I change the IMEI...
Thanks who all helped...

you have to flash boot.img before the rom
and why did you flashed it if you installed succesfully FXP?
what are you trying to flash?

There is misunderstanding.
I do all the prepares successfully, but I can't flash the FXP...
Cause I can't flash the "boot.img"...
There is always says "Device must be rooted! Are you root..."

and you are trying to do this via fastboot?
IE: fastboot flash boot boot.img

Yes, I have used fastboot and Flashtool...
I'm following those steps [From FreeXperia] :
1.Device Unlocking
All info regarding unlocking procedure is on SONY website
2.Copy update on phone
a.copy update
copy update-xxx-xxx-xxx.zip coresponding to your device to sdcard
b.copy GAPPS
due to legal rules gapps are not provided into main rom
google for gapps package and copy on sdcard
3.Flash CM kernel
a. extract boot.img from zip file
b. power off device
c. press volume up (2012 devices) / menu (2011 devices)
d. plug usb and blue led will be lit
e. on computer type in same folder where you have boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
!!! you have to have fastboot.exe in same folder !!!
4.Boot into recovery
while FXP logo is displayed (and lights are lit) press several times volume up to enter CWM (recovery)
5.Flash ROM
to update main rom select
a.Install zip from sdcard
b.choose zip from sdcard
c.select your update (copied at step 2)
to flash gapps redo steps a-c and select gapps package
!!! use gapps version designed for your android version !!!
6.Wipe device
from cm9 device wipe is necessary only at first flash or when you switch cm version
!!! if after boot you experience ForceClose then is recomended to reboot to recovery and wipe device
7.Partition format
is not recomended to format your partitions unless you are advised to do otherwise
8.reboot and enjoy...
But every time, stucked on 3rd step....
Always says "Device must be rooted. Are you root?"...

After that proccess successfuly booted the CM 10...
I hope that info helps someone else too...

[Q]Need help for various problems faced during rooting and flashing stuff in Xperia E

I decided to root my mom's Xperia E and put CM10 in it. So I began. I first rooted with cydia impactor and put supersu manually and installed binaries. It was successfully rooted. Now when I unlocked my bootloader I faced a bootloop, so I flashed stock ftf and then rooted again. So now I have a rooted and bootloader unlocked xperia e. Then I decided to install cwm. I tried to do it using cmd prompt but everytime it would show <waiting for device> and then nothing happens (I booted in fastboot mode). After that I decided to put zeus kernel. In the download section, confusion started as there were 2 versions, for cwm and TWRP respctively, I tried the cwm one and flashed it using flashtool but then my phone's UI was like gone. I was only able to open settings app. So I decided to flash stock FTF and keep it in stable state for now. So what do I need to do to install cm10?
Thanks in advance
When it says <waiting for device> just follow these steps:
1.Turn off the phone
2.power off button + volume UP
3.wait to finish flash
If it dosn't work reinstall drivers.

Nothing much if you flashed Stock FTF recently then just flash Zues Kernel the CWM one, make sure you have the proper drivers to flash using flashtool.
Then boot up and go into recovery and flash the CM10.zip. Then you will need to flash the CM10 kernel. Its usually inside the ZIP named "boot.img"

[Q] to root or not to root

Hello,
1st.: while starting this new thread, I looked through the automaticly generated similar threads and found non that was suiting my problem.
Last night I unlocked the bootloader of my wifes Xperia L (C2105) and got stuck into an boot loop. After this I had the need to flash an original rom (4.1.2). This results in an total wipe of the phone :crying:
Now the phone has an unlocked bootloader and an old Android Version. I want to install the pacman rom 4.4.4. I know i have to use cwm or twrp to do this, but do I need to root the device?
I'm a little bit confused. I thought installing the *.img-File from TWRP, with the folloing command, will get me the recovery option an with this option
Code:
c:\fastboot\Fastboot.exe flash boot C:\fastboot\openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-taoshan.img
Can anyone help me out?
My wife is not upset, but with the boot loop from last night in my mind, I'm quit unsure what to do next.
many thanks in advanced
Felix
you need to root the device and use flashtool by androxyde(Easier and user friendly), first download the rom and put it in internal/external memory and then install thunderzap 4.12 by select bootkk.img and install it in fastboot mode in flashtool, now enter the recovery go into wipe and format options and choose clean to install a new ROM and then flash the pac rom and reboot
Root isn't necessary.
Download PAC ROM, Take boot.img inside the zip.
Flash boot.img via fastboot.
Boot into recovery, wipe data / factory reset.
Flash ROM and GApps.
That's it
NOP, you dont need to root to install a custom rom

you can download the rom, extract it and keep, boot.img file, in fastboot folder, and also keep the downloaded rom zip file in sd card for later use.
than you can use use fastboot commands to flash those boot.img which will install the recovery into your phone, than .
use reboot command in fastboot, it will reboot your phone, take out your cable, using volume up key go to recovery,
there clear all the cache and delvik cache file, then, install your custom rom by selecting from your sd card, it will take a bit of time for first time, so don't worry,
than you are done,

Accidentally deleted system files - Xperia M2 D2305

Hi,
I'm using lollipop previously and tried to root my device. I tried to follow the instructions on how to root it by unlocking Boot Loader. I accidentally deleted all the system files in recovery mode. Unfortunately, I don't have any back ups. Now my device is just restarting and stuck in Sony logo. I can still boot to recovery mode. I tried to flash the latest ftf but flashing always fail. Is there any way where I can install the OS since in recovery it says that OS is not installed. I'm using TWRP recovery. Many thanks for those who will help. I will really appreciate it.

just flash via flashtool
FTF can only be flashed via Flashtools as far as I'm aware it also restores the original stock recovery so you lose your recovery too
Just install Flashmode, Fastboot, and phone drivers (Phone driver can be installed using Sony PC Companion or going to device manager and manually doing it)
Then put your phone into flashmode and then open flashtools select flashmode and then put the ftf file in your directory where it can detect the file usually in documents .flashtool / firmware and then select the file to flash and wait
Don't untick/tick any wipe or not wipe box and just keep pressing yes unless you have a reason to press no

If I start the device, it goes on fastboot, if I click recovery it goes on rui recovery mode, but even if I format data and restart it does the same (start on fastboot)

there is one stock rom firmware that gives that problem, at least that's what happened to me previously or also when touch did not work it was when flashed custom rom on wrong firmware version, let's say rom required rui 3 c05 but I used rui 3 c07 which caused problems.

exactly. not really the first time for me. it can append when your recovery is out of date also.
i'm not a dev but interresting with for long year and i think flashing rom don't errase all that why we always need to flash custom rom according to our android version.
