FOR 2011 XPERIA Phones [LwW/Mini/Mini Pro/Active]

Below i am mentioning the steps to how to install a custom ROM (Real ICS,Serenity, HyperbeamCream etc.) i think it may be helpful.

First of all u should unlock the bootloder for installing custom ROM's (not for all ROM's)

For unlocking the boot loader for Xperia 2011 series phone u should get the unlocking code from the sony mobile site ( http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ ) follow this link and get the unlocking bootloder code.

For unlocking the boot loder Download the "fastboot" drivers from here. Install them accordingly.
Turn off your phone. Wait for 30 seconds. Connect your phone to the PC while keeping the volume up key pressed. Your phone's LED will lit blue (indicating fastboot mode).
Head over to the location where you kept the previously unzipped fastboot folder. Right click while keeping pressed the SHIFT key on the folder and select "Open command prompt here"
Type fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version to ensure your have entered bootloader mode (you will get version on java example, 0.3)
Type fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY (replace KEY with unlock code you got from Sony's website earlier)

Installing or Flashing Custom ROM

First of all copy the Custom ROM file in ur phones SDcard. Here is the list of Custom ROM and kernels. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1887855

Then Turn your phone on. When you see the Sony or Sony Ericsson logo on the screen, keep pressing the volume down key. It will take you to the CWM recovery mode, which was installed automatically with the kernel.
Use the volume up and down keys to navigate through menu items and the Home key for selecting.
Do a full wipe (format data, system, cache, Dalvik cache and battery cache).
Choose "install from SD card" and then select "choose zip file". Select the ROM file
It will take you to the very much intuitive Aroma installer, which is very easy and much like installing an operating system on your PC.
After finishing the installation, REBOOT ur phone twice
