slightly different problem

I've got a problem, but I'm not sure if it's been addressed anywhere else on here, I've searched through several pages. I've found a situation that was similar, but not the same. So I'm putting it out there, and hoping someone will solve it:

I've got a Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman (WT19i)
I rooted my phone, unlocked it's bootloader, and flashed a ROM; everything went well until it rebooted. Now I'm stuck at the point where the "Sony Ericsson" logo is shown, i've been stuck there for almost 30 minutes now.

Any help possible? Any at ALL would be MUCH appreciated.

You are now in a situation called bootloop.To solve this try recovering from a nandroid back up or try using wotanserver or flashtool to revert back to stock rom.

Custom ROM requires custom kernel.

I could not access the CWM as it was stuck at the kernel logo, so i flashed the older firmware and it worked. Thankyou!

Can anyone tell me is CWM is relevant for my situation where I cannot update from rooted .58 to .62 using OTA?

CWM is mentioned in the original post, but I do not understand it's purpose here.

No idea, but I did remove some of those apps and have problem updating.

will try to re-flashed again.

Pls. share if you make some progress.

This was the exact same problem I had. I think your bootloader is unlocked?
If so, use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1134335 to relock it; then attempt to update.

I believe it's not...I just used DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit to root my phone and, afaik, it does not unlock bootloader?

Otoh, how can I check it?

Edit:

Code:

Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status --> Bootloader unlock allowed:Yes

so I bet it's locked, right?

No, that doesn't indicate whether it's locked or not, it just tells you if it is possible on your device. I'm not sure how to check this, unfortunately. But flashing that image before i tried updating worked for me, so i suppose it's worth a try?

Yes, bootloader is locked. If it would be unlocked, it would show

Code:

Bootloader unlocked: Yes

Rooting does not unlock bootloader.

Any idea what does prevent me to perform OTA update then?

Sorry about the trouble but i have a problem. I'm on the 4.0.2.A.0.58 firmware that i downgraded using the debranding process with root and CWM. I've done the OTA update but when i try to install it gives me a error. It says that the firmware wasn't installed. Am i doing something wrong?

OhellspawnO · Apr 10, 2012
