- Boot to CWM recovery
- Go to Mount and Storage, format system,cache,data, go back and "wipe data/factory reset,dalvik cache,wipe cache
- Install the Gimlo HDPI Firmware 11.0.A.5.5 zip first ("install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from sdcard)
- Reboot phone
- Wait until your phone will boot up successfully (you will see lockscreen)
- Now reboot phone and boot into cwm recovery
- Flash Gimlo-v2.1 zip ("install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from sdcard)
- Wait that your phone start completely. And don't try to configure anything or to do other things as the NXT framework is not yet available. Your phone will work fine but the install is not complete yet.
- Restart your phone.
- During the boot, a short time after the "Sony" logo, your phone will restart again automatically. Don't be afraid it's normal.
- That's all, just wait that your phone start completely.

Tip if you got a bootloop during the initial boot:
Do not install directly the Gimlo Rom after the Gimlo Firmware. Make a reboot between both of their installation. And after the restart, make a "wipe data/factory reset" again before to start the install of Gimlo Rom.


Important information about NXT framework:
-NXT framework is required by many mods so it's highly recommended to use it.

-You need the NXT lockscreen to use the NXT framework or you will get bootloop. So if you choose the NXT framework during the install process, don't forget to select the NXT lockscreen also.
-You need a compatible status bar to be able to use the Small Apps.

**************************************************
Here is a list of mods which require NXT framework:
- NXT lockscreen
- Cybershot camera
- Bravia Engine 2
- Xperia Z theme by djedjy
- Location Based Wifi
- Small Apps
