Hi guys I'm new to this forum, and new to Android development as well.
I've made a mistake editing a file in System/etc the name is Vold.fstab. and ive messed up the storage, now it doesnt recognise it.
I'm coming here asking for help on how to flash a custom rom, preferably Cyanogenmod latest working version. I would like to get a full tutorial step by step on how to flash the rom as I'm a completely noob.
Don't know the tools... I've previously rooted the phone if that helps.
Thanks a lot

Hi,
First of all many thanks to Christian Troy for some exceptional work done regarding Allwinner A10 tablets. I really appreciate the hard work done by him for the CM10 Build but from the past week I am badly stuck on one issue that if some one can please help me out! I am a newbie noob here and I managed to follow his thread for Allwinner Development and Unofficial Cm10 Thread by the help of which I am able to Install CWM and his CM10 JB Update onto my Tablet but the Touchscreen fails to work. I have manged to obtain following things:
1) Touchscreen drivers and all relevant files from Root Explorer from my A13 MID
2) Original .img Firmware
3) Auto Update Creator with which I tried the Compatibility zip Package to port the drivers
Till date from past 1 week I am trying to get the ROM and since Mr Troy has left work on the ROM Development further I am stuck badly as I have all necessary stuff for the Zip Package for Compatibility Zip file which has necessary drivers. I have tried a lot flashing but it fails. So Please if any one can help me out so that I can use CM10 on my tablet finally. So Close yet so Far but I am hopeful if some one here can help. Since this is my first post here I only had this option to post.
Thanking You & Regards,
Dilmeet

Hello all !
My name is Seby, and I'm here because I consider this a serious community.
With some months ago, I changed the ROM of my Alcaltel One Touch 991, and my brother saw that I can do it, so he wanted to change the ROM of his Xperia e10i mini.
I rooted it, then he was needed to go out of country, so he got just the phone rooted.
Now, he came back, and wants to continue to change the ROM.
The phone was/is still rooted, so I started to search a good CWM for it.
After 2-3 hours of searching for solutions ( found somewhere a tutorial where unlocking bootloader was needed, but I couldn't unlock it because flashtool got error about remounting the system rw, then I kept searching another CWM ) I found a nice tutorial about How to install CWM on xperia e10i. ( this is the tutorial - this is the CWM )
I have installed it, then I wanted to test if it really work, so I spent about one hour to find the combination of keys for it. (spamming Back button while the first "Sony Ericsson" text is loading)
But sadly, it doesn't starts... I tried with ROM Manager (downloaded from pc and copied on sdcard because it doesn't appear in the Android Marker) and rebooted it in Recovery, but it was just rebooting.
I searched for the directory called CWM (or something like that) in phone's data and sdcard, but I couldn't find it.
I'm really bored of this solutions' search, so that's why I registered and posted this.
I hope you can help me, by telling me what should I install, what to do next, etc.
Here is the ROM that I want to install: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961707
(looks nice, and the part with "is the most stable and feature-complete ROM for the mini for day to day use" convinced me)
Here are some details about phone:
Firmware
2.1-update1
Baseband ?
M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Kernel
2.6.29
[email protected] #1
Number of compile ?
2.1.1.A.0.6

Did you try Volume down to get in to CWM?
That rom you want to install is 3 years old CM6 = Froyo
Pick some other one, atleast CM7....
You need to flash the kernel first (you can use flashtool)
Kernel has CWM built-in
Enter CWM and install .zip from SD (rom)
I used these when i had my X10 mini
Kernel
Rom

Thank you very much for the reply !
I followed the steps: I unlocked the bootloader, then I loaded the new kernel version... but after ithat, it exited from Flash Mode and started to turn on... but it is stuck in a boot loop now...
It cannot start the OS, it just restarts the loading animation after its own end.
I can access the CWM so I think I can fix it.
I will try to add directly the CM7 because I've read somewhere that this kernel works only with it, so I will give a try
If you have any suggestion, just tell me.
Hurray ! I've installed the ROM !
First, I couldn't install the ROM from CWM (error: can't mount /sdcard) ... then I put the SDcard in my phone and I saw that it is corupted, so I gave it a reformat, then I copied the ROM to the SD, and moved back the sdcard to the sony ericsson and I finally loaded the ROM
Thank you very much for your reply, martinusbe !
Until yesterday, I've lost my hope.
By the way, thanks to all tutorials too
Great.
Now you can try some different roms :silly:
P.s. there is a 'thanks' button, to say thanks...
Hi. (I want to install CM 11 on this device.)
Today, I unlocked a bootloader of Xperia U by Flashtool. After that, I flashed a boot.img from CM 11 .zip. But there is a problem. I cannot insert ANY files in to phone, because when it starts, I see only SONY image and after that only black screen. And now, I cannost insert .zip file with CM 11. . There is CWM. Please, how to solve that problem? Now, I do not care which version of Android will be there... I need only call from the phone... Thank you very, very much!
Hi!
Here is an all in one thread for your device...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/issues/faqs-help-thread-newbies-post-t1983938
You may read how to return to stock or ask questions in this thread.
Good luck! ?
Hey guys. I would really appreciate it if someone could find the time to reply to my post and give me proper instructions. I want to set up my device from scratch using stock ROM. The problem is that I don't know the mechanics and the "proper order" of things to do in order to accomplish what I want. I would like to mention that a while ago I had UNLOCKED my bootloader so I am currently on unlocked bootloader mode.
So here it goes. What I would like to do with my device is:
1) Have stock SONY ROM (I don't like custom ones anymore) - I did this by flashing a GENERIC .ftf I found, using the latest version of Flashtool so this one is done.
2) I also completed rooting procedure. I downloaded this package which included an install.bat file , I ran it and after it finished my device was rooted. So this one is done as well.
Now what I need and I cannot find what to do (I would like your help and suggestions on that) is, a recovery and a custom kernel with native link2sd support.
How am I about to do that? Can someone point me with instructions as to how I can flash recovery and after that which custom kernel is good and supports link2sd?
Thanks in advance! :good:
Hi guys, I've never done anything like this but my dad uses a galaxy tab n8010 which needs updating, ive seen there's ways to get it onto android 6/7 but none of the guides explain it from the start. Im using a MacBook if that helps but would rather just do it all from the device. Can anyone please help me?!
No update for N8010 since 4.4.2 .
Some custom roms in Development section have Android 6 etc .
All information already posted .
Cannot flash custom rom direct from device .
Flash TWRP custom recovery through Odin and PC ,
Install custom rom on external sd card boot to TWRP recovery and install .
