Hey guys.....
I'm using an Xperia Acro and need a little help in terms of flashing a custom kernel. Please bare with me as I'm pretty new to this.
I'm to upload the DoomKernel, and I *think* I'm ready to go. My phone is rotted, bootloader unlocked, fastboot enabled. Also, I have the necessary files that need to be flashed.
However, I got lost pretty quickly. I'm supposed to put the .img file into the "flashboot binaries folder". I have NO idea what this means. I looked at the systems folders and cant find anything labeled flashboot.
What am I'm supposed to do? Where is this elusive folder?
Appreciate the help...
Anybody? just trying to figure out where to put the boot.img file.....
On your pc you should have a fastboot folder, open that and one of the sub folders should be boot. Place the file there. Shift-right click and select open command window here, enter in the command window fastboot flash boot xxxx.img, xxxx being the bootfile name.

Thanks for the reply. Where would a fastboot folder be on my pc?
Thanks
When you unlocked your bootloader via SE you should have downloaded the SDK files, think it's in there. You'll need the drivers too, there are a few threads on here where people were looking for help with fastboot so you'll find everything there.

I didn't. I had it unlocked remotely by another user on this forum actually......
try these http://min.us/miDhsNng1
I recommend going to the se page about unlocking your bootloader first, it'll give you a link for all the files you need. If you're unsure, create a folder "fastboot", drop the files above in it, any bootfiles just go in the folder beside the dll files, in open folder shift and right-click, create command window, type in window"fastboot flash boot xxxx.img" and see if it asks for drivers
i'll give it a try. thanks!
Says "waiting for device". That mean im good to go?
seems fine, is the blue light on?
Any joy? Can't remember exactly how I set it up, there's a few extra things to download like adb, drivers and such but those files are the fastboot stuff I use. Think you need the Java jre too...
Hey, sorry for the delay. Had to sleep then go to work. Will attempt to do this once i get home!
Hey,
So yeah....it's a no go. I'm not sure if I'm entering fastboot mode correctly, cause the light is green. I hold the back button while plugging in the usb cord.....thats the correct way to enter fastboot mode right?
Anyway, command prompt continues to read, "waiting for device"
Okay, so apparently I needed to be holding the menu key, not the back key to enter fastboot mode.
So, I got the blue light now, but the command prompt still says "waiting for device"

Also, tried opening the fastboot.exe file manually, and it just opens and then shuts down immediately.
So frustrating!
hi mate
most likely ur missing drivers
my set up is fast boot folder inside which is all fast boot files and adb files and I place the .img here ,just in the fast boot folder not a sub folder.
I plug in phone in fast boot then open fast boot folder hold shift and right click on empty part of folder,click open command prompt here then enter "fastboot flash boot boot.img" should flash in 2-3 seconds if all is correct
some times hangs waiting for me if I open command prompt before plugging in phone
hope that helps

Hi,
I have wanted to try CM10 for some time, and unlocked my Arc S for the first time today. I followed the guides at freexperiaproject, so it seems that I was able to unlock the bootloader successfully. After it was unlocked I rebooted and all my user data was reset (as expected).
I downloaded "FXP150-cm-10-20121208-UNOFFICIAL-anzu" from rapidgator and "gapps-jb-20121011-signed" wich I found at the cyanogenmod wiki. I put both the zip files in the root of my SD card. When I try running "fastboot flash boot boot.img" it says "sending 'boot' <5616 KB>...", but nothing more happens. I let it stay for several minutes and I have to push Control+C to abort it. I also extracted "boot.img" to the platform-tools folder under android-sdk.
In the SDK Manager I have installed "Android SDK Tools", "Android SDK Platform-tools" and "Google USB Driver".
Am I doing something wrong? Is there anything more I should do before running fastboot? Sorry if I have missed a basic step here.

First, copy the file .img to the fastboot folder, if the file system.img means you have to run the command with the command: fastboot> fastboot flash system system.img, if the file userdata.img means that the command should be fastboot> fastboot flash userdata userdata.img .if the file xxxxboot.img mean form the command fastboot> fastboot flash boot xxxxboot.img
Iam using google translate.so,I hope I helped you and I hope you understand

The file from the zip file is called "boot.img". I have copied it to the fastboot folder, and I am running "fastboot flash boot boot.img", as the "how to-" says.
Reinstall drivers

did you make the phone enter fastboot mode?
you should run "fastboot devices" to see.
Thanks for the replies!
I tried on a different computer this morning, and here it worked immediately. Not sure what was wrong on the other one, because I installed the same SDK packages and USB driver. Installing ROM at the moment.
[Edit]: Everything seems to be working fine. Very happy with CM10 at the moment

It show error that "This action needs a connected device in ADB mode"
what I have to do to flash boot.img ?
I attached 2 screenshots of connecting & error....
device is connected in flashmode , I also attached blue noti. LED pic which on when connect...
How I connect device & flash boot.img ???
Can I flash that kernel directly by clicking "select kernel to flash" ?
& Why it is showing ADB error when I click "reboot into fastboot mode (via ADB) ??
In advance thank you...

i dont like flashing kernel by flashtool, as far i done several 2011 devices the best method allways was over adb:good: & it pretty easy.
download android sdk & open the exe. leave all like it is (only may make sure google usb drivers are checked) & press on install.
after install place the boot.img here: ...\sdk\platform-tools
2. connect device into fastboot mode (blue led)
3.click in a empty space in the folder. now HOLD SHIFT & right click, choose ''open command line window here'' (<-- or sth like that sorry my setup is german)
4. enter 'fastboot devices' --> your device should be recognized as a bunch of numbers.
5. flash kernel by entering ''fastboot flash boot boot.img'' it tells you all done.
6. ''fastboot reboot''
7. enjoy new kernel
Install Instruction:
Set flashtool to fastboot mode.
Extract the boot.img from the ROM zip.
Place the ROM zip onto your SD card.
Flash the boot.img using fastboot.
Boot into CWM.
Select install zip, choose from SD card and select the ROM zip.
Then flash the GApps package is you put it on your SD card.
Reboot phone and you should be running CM10.1 on your phone now.

Hi,
I am trying to install this rom legacy xperia 4.2.2 But I am stuck at flashing kernel
The tool is flashtool as you can see in picture
http://www.uppic.org/share-AA2F_520F170B.html
When I click select kernel to flash, it doesnt do anything and the red text says error...
Don't use flashtool, try using fastboot.exe instead.
Place the kernel in the same directory as fastboot.exe, press shift and right click on the directory and click "open command window here"
Then type they following into cmd:
fastboot devices
Confirm you see at least one device there, it will appear as a jumbled set of numbers and letters followed by the word fastboot. That will be your device.
After that, type this into cmd:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
If done correctly, it will say boot.img sent or something, it will definitely show some kind of success.
You can disconnect your phone now, boot it up and press vol down when you see a blue flash. This will bring you into CWM recovery.
From there, select install zip -> choose from SD card -> ROM zip
Flash it and reboot, you should have CM10.1 running on your phone now.
P.S this should be in Q&A section instead of general.

Connect your phone in fastboot mode first. For that, turn off your phone, connect USB cable to the PC, then hold down Menu button and connect USB cable to the phone. If blue LED lights up, phone is in fastboot mode. If not, try again.

What's wrong with using the fastboot within Flashtool? It is a lot easier for most of the users.

Hi guys,
I am stuck REALLY stuck. I have or now had a rooted htc one x. I tried to flash a rom but this kept on stucking on the logo (carbon logo, cause it was a Carbon rom). When I saw this I got confused so I deleted everything from recovery mode. EVERYTHING the rom and what was on the sd card. Now when i try to turn oi on it is stuck on the htc logo (the first one that appears). I presume its doing so cause it is finding no rom to load. My other problem is the power. The battery got drained and I cannot even see my SD card on the pc ! I found somewhere that in recovery mode i could go to advanced and to side load but i cannot even see this side load option. PLEASSSSE help me I am really desperate!!
When you're in recovery, connect to your PC and mount your sdcard, in twrp it's advanced/mount. The card should then show up on your PC, put the rom zip on your card and let the phone charge for a while. Use fastboot to erase cache then flash the rom.

Extract the boot.img file from the rom, place it in the same location as your adb set up. Reboot to fastboot mode, connect to PC, open cmd window at same location as abd and type:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Reboot.

cache erase but getting cannot open boot.img!!!!!!!!!
Don't open it. Just extract it to your adb folder, and flash it via fastboot. If it's not called boot.img then either use fastboot flash boot (bootname).img or rename it to boot.img. Plus if you've erased the system you'll need to flash the rom again via recovery.

i am typing "C:\android\sdk\platform-tools\fastboot flash boot boot.img" is it good? cause its replying cannot open boot.img and the file i extracted is called boot.img. I cant understand were i am wrong. Perhaps cause the battery is still very low?
The extracted boot.img should be in the sdk folder, for example mine is C:\Users\Sinclair\Downloads\adb_fastboot_and_other_tools\adb_fastboot_and_other_tools\Android. Open the folder, shift+right click and choose 'open command window here'. Try 'fastboot devices' to ensure it's been detected, if so it should work. Possibly a bad download.

please you are my only hope before i throw this device in the rubbish can. could you send me a detailed step by step proceedure of what to do cause I am completely lost. the files i need to down load where to put themand commands i should write down in command mode. I am completely noob on this and all these words you all use.If you cant and i completly understand could you recomend wewre i can post my problem for more veterans to see or perhaps there is somewhere where i can ship my device and get it fixed at a cost of course.
THANKS
You put literally the boot.img file in that state in the Fastboot.exe folder on the pc. So it goes into the platform tools folder !
Then you put the phone in the bootloader where you see "Fastboot usb" in red text
Then you point with the mouse inside the platform tools folder and hold down shift and click the right button and select "open command window here"
Then you type the command in that window
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
By your reply I'm presuming you don't have a full adb/fastboot setup. Read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42407269,
and follow the instructions.

Hi there
Thanks for your interest in helping me out. After i do this right click thing i go to the black window and give these commands as they are no previous path like c:\ etc etc before the commands you gave me? Cause the funny thing i did the erase cache thing and it did it but this boot boot.img isnt doing it. And bdw i redownloaded another rom, copied it to the file tools and extracted it there. In it there was a boot.img file. Did i do the right thing?
Thanks again
When you open the cmd window by right click in a folder then all commands you enter are for that folder path, so it's fastboot flash boot xxx.img(replace xxx with the boot name), and it's only the boot.img for your rom you need extracted to the folder.
I think you are confusing yourself. Just stay calm and read carefully ! It's not rocket science. Open the rom.zip with 7Zip and just drag out the boot.img file to the exact same folder as where your fastboot.exe file is located. Open the command window there and type the commands.
The command fail cannot open is only because the file is just not there !

Sure...
Download this file and extract it anywhere your computer...
Right click anywhere inside the folder holding the shift key and click on "Open command window here", after this a cmd window will appear...
Connect your phone and type:
adb devices

Press the power button and volume up/down at the same time, for several seconds, you should enter stock recovery.
If you don't have the update.app in your dload folder remove the sdcard, insert it into a sd adaptor,put it on your pc/laptop and copy the update.app into dload folder.

Install the drivers, or open HiSuite, that should do it.
I tried to do that. cmd but it says:
adb server did not ack
unkown host service.

If you phone stuck at boot adb will not work. Type fastboot devices. It will show ???? Device found. Then type fastboot comands to install recovery or boot.

Yep. You are doing it wrong...
In the zip file you downloaded there are two files:
1.- boot.img
2.- recovery.img
Now you need to follow this guide to flash them to your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2636231
Since your phone is not booting instead of following the adb commands you need to push both volume - and Power Buttons at the same time while you plug the usb cable to enter fastboot mode.
Once in fastboot mode follow the guide (from step 4 onwards) to flash the kernel (boot.img) and stock recovery (recovery.img)
Once you have flashed both, put any ROM in the dload folder of your external SDCARD. and then reboot the phone using the 3 button combo (Volume + , VOlume - and Power Button) Note that the phone needs to be unplugged from the computer...
