How to install Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean on Xperia X10i[Full tutorial][CM10]

This time it is the Sony Xperia X10 to rejoice it’s ever waiting taste buds and prepare to taste the Jelly Bean 4.1 which will be powered by the famous Custom ROM  – CyanogenMod 10. However, this CM 10 build is still not fully stable there are a few issues which are reported, in simple, it is a Beta built which will soon become a fully stable ROM based on Jelly Bean 4.1. But otherwise, a bunch of other plethora of features which are included in the Jelly Bean 4.1 are working perfect on this ROM which is based on Jelly Bean 4.1 for Xperia X10.

Things To Remember

  • You must have a Rooted Xperia X10 with CWM Recovery Installed on it
  • Make sure you backup your important stuff such as SMS, Call Logs and Contacts as you will be wiping out the data
  • I would also highly recommend you to perform a NanDroid Backup so you can return to your Xperia X10′s previous state whenever you want as a couple of features might not work
  • Must be bootloader unlocked

Step 7 – Wipe the Data by selecting Wipe data/factory reset

Step 8 – Now go to >flash zip from SD card>choose zip from sdcard and now select the Jelly Bean 4.2 Custom ROM zip file you downloaded

  20. I followed as feravolt
    FOR LOCKED BOOTLOADERS:
    — Download ZIP file called nearly same as FeraKernel-GB.zip and copy to SDcard.
    — Boot to xRecovery and flash zip(all drivers are already in kernel zip).
    — Reboot your device twice and you’re done.

    I tried flashing Ferakernel.zip, but i could not mount sdcard, i can mount other patitions but not sdcard,

  28. Then you might have to work on LBL to gain more users of this ROM, You cant expect that every one is on unlocked BL, then people wil move to some other ROM with supports LB like Feralab…

    Sorry, if you not the developer of this ROM

    Reply

    • Scritch is the developer of this ROM so i cannot do anything but its now time to unlock bootloader since you get restricted to many things so its better to unlock bootloader thats why even devs make for Unlocked bootloader first bcoz its easy to compile than for locked

  46. Awesome blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers?
    I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.

    Would you propose starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are
    so many options out there that I’m completely overwhelmed ..
    Any tips? Appreciate it!

  49. Definitely believe that which you said. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the net the easiest thing to be aware of.
    I say to you, I certainly get annoyed while people think about worries that they
    plainly don’t know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the
    top and also defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people can take a signal.
    Will probably be back to get more. Thanks
