No, I used fastboot. I used the same for unlocking the bootloader..
BTW should I try flashing the kernel using flashtool' fastboot?

are you sure you are using
fastboot flash boot boot.img?
cause you might be just hotbooting it instead of flashing

New kernel for CM9/AOKP.
Based on new Sony sources.
Deep sleep is fixed, and so is video decoding
Enjoy, watch videos and have deep sleep

I was on stock ROM firmware 42 AFAIR , bootloader unlocked and was using DoomKernel 2.0Ghz kernel.
I think I did flash the kernel because if I didnt, how would I had seen the FXP bootscreen?
All right, I used flashtool to flash kernel and now it booted..

And it's a great improvement! Thanks, Keiranobi!

I have had that happen before as well. Try doing fastboot -i 0x0fce erase boot first.

Use one of the volume buttons when the purple light comes on.

only thing keeping me from flashing this is no video recording aside from that it looks pretty good
btw I can't get into recovery after wards?
When I flashed the kernel, I unplugged the phone and went to the FreeXperia screen with the purple light. That's where I flashed the rom in recovery the first time.
and this ROM is superfast O.O It's faster than Darkforest which was very slow

I'm using QuikIMG. Do I just flash it to boot?
How do I enable Deep Sleep? Is there an option or something? I really need my phone to last at least 10 hours

Hardly anybody clicks thanks anymore, my ROM has been downloaded over 9,000 times but nowhere near that number bothers to click the little button.. can't imagine how many have downloaded Darkforest ICS!
A bit of a depressing tale for devs but hey we live with it don't we?
Anyway, fantastic work supervenom!
It's a great ROM and is coming along very, very nicely7http://icxperia.com/keiran/newboot.img

This is true, ext3 performs better than ext2 - but only because of journaling. In the case of flash-based storage like the microSD, it's actually bad.
"ext2 is still the filesystem of choice for flash-based storage media (such as SD cards, and USB flash drives), since its lack of a journal minimizes the number of writes, and flash devices have a limited number of write cycles."
The main reason journaling provides performance benefits is because it reduces the need to seek and can help make up for filesystem fragmentation, but both these factors are not a problem for flash storage because there is a near-zero seek time.
ext4 is the same case. It will have better performance but not so for flash-based storage. There are more features that ext3 and 4 have over 2, but they are all practically useless for Android (and embedded Linux) and will result in slightly higher memory and CPU overhead. On our device with only 512MB of RAM, keeping memory usage down is essential!
BTW, even if you have an ext3/4 filesystem, you should be able to chose "ext2" in Link2SD and it will mount it in ext2 backwards-compatibility mode. This is OK and has the same effect, there's no real need to reformat it as ext2 (unless it still doesn't work of course).
From what I know, ext3 and 4 should have journaling disabled in the kernel level (otherwise your microSD will not last). However, ext3/4 tend to be corrupted easier when journaling is turned off because it depends on it's journaling feature for recovery.
I used to use ext3 myself, but I would occassionally get FC's from e.g. games that were linked to the card. I discovered that the filesystem kept getting corrupted. Since I switched to ext2 (a long time ago), I noticed better performance (maybe because of the errors, maybe because of less overhead) and never had any filesystem problems since.
In summary - ext3/4 might provide a negligible performance boost over ext2, but probably not because it's performance benefit is designed to make up for mechanical harddisk with seeking delays - not a problem for flash storage. And only when journaling is enabled. And journaling will trash the microsd very quickly.
Also, write speed on ext2 filesystems is always faster than ext3 and 4 (sequential write - but again, since Flash storage has a near-zero seek time, random-write is nearly the same speed).
Thank you for reading6
