Hi everyone. Can anyone help me figure out what's the problem that i cant boot into CWM. I have Neo MT15i running FINE with stock rom ICS .587, locked bootloader and rooted. I also installed x-Parts as well as CWM 5.5 and busybox 1.20. But my problem is that my phone just cant boot into CWM recovery no matter what i did either press and release volume - continuously when "SONY" logo appears, or using x-Parts function to boot into recovery. It just ends up stuck at "SONY" logo (I waited for about 10 minutes but no respond)
You have to press Back button while booting from Sony Logo to boot into CWM.

same problem for me...xperia neo v
Hello.
I have a similar problem, if not identical. I rooted my MT15i today hoping to install a custom ROM I found in this forum.
Everything went fine. I rooted the phone and installed Clockwork Mod Recovery properly.
Then, I downloaded the rom .zip, placed it in /sdcard, made a backup of my current system, wiped data/ full reset and installed the ROM with SUCCESS, as it said in the log.
After that, I rebooted the phone and now it keep stuck in the "SONY" boot screen and won't change no matter what I do.
But I think I know why did this happen. I was following a tutorial found in another site. There was listed only to wipe data and full reset, and not to wipe danvik and cache, as I came to read after I was stuck in the boot screen.
The problem is that now I can't even get to the Clockwork Mod Recovery screen, even if I start the phone holding volume down button (or reset, or any other button the phone might have).
The only thing to do is removing the battery. After starting again, it gets stuck again in SONY screen.
When I plug the phone into my PC, nothing happens. It doesn't get recognised.
It only turns on and stops at the SONY screen again.
I wonder if there's a way to access the Clockwork Mod Recovery menu or some way to return the phone to the stock settings.
Or is it a possible brick?
Thanks for the help already.
Ps.: sorry for the long post.
First of all don't worry your device is not broken
And not every custom Rom support locked bootloader
The reason you can't access cwm because you wiped data
I think you can restore your phone by reflash firmware using flashtool

I can get the phone to conect to the PC in flashmode. I downloaded the stock firmware of Neo MT15i (v 4.1.A.0.562) and flashed it, but no luck. The phone keeps stuck in the SONY screen. Any ideas?
EDIT: actually, when I bought the phone, it came with Android 2.3, I don't remember the firmware version.

It doesn't matter which android version you flash all should work
make sure you checked those boxes in flashmode
Wipe data
Wipe cache
Wipe apps log
No final verification
And just to know when you flashed the firmware. Does it completed successfully?

Well, I got the phone to boot. I was just trying to flash an incomplete firmware, I guess. I downloaded a new firmware I found in a rooting tutorial thread in this forum and flashed it. The phone is now working fine.
But now it's not rooted anymore. Maybe in the future I'll try to root and flash a new rom.
Thanks for the help, anyway. :laugh:
Never mind, but I suggest you unlock your bootloader if you would like to flash custom Rom

What rom were you trying to install? Is your bootloader unlocked? And you can try flashing stock firmware with flashtool to revive it...

NEO V doesn't boot
Hi,
I installed following in my Neo V MT11i
Super Jelly Bean v6.0(16th august 2013)
best kernel for sjb(fusion 5.4)
debloated updated gapps
using following link . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2108632
I am using Kernel_Flasher_v2.0 to flash the image kernel. It recognises the device and shows that the kernel is flashed. But the device doesnt reboot. I root the phone through eroot software. Then I install X parts and go into recovery mode.
I wiped the phone fully, including system format.
Please guide where I am missing some crucial step.
I am using windows 8
Thanks in advance

you can try using PC Companion or SEUS to fix your phone
or
1. install flashtool
2. flash custom kernel like nAa kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1256739)
2. go to CWM by press back button several times when you see nAa logo
3. do factory reset
4. install ROM, i assume you still using original ROM, using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1225577
5. flash original kernel.

Since I am new to all this I started reading this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1682966
which helped me successfully root my Xperia mini E10i.
But now I have problem installing recovery. I followed the instructions to the letter - successfully copied the three files to system/bin, changed permissions by checking all the checkboxes on the files. And yet when I boot the phone and repeatedly press the back button while the white Sony Ericson is showing, the recovery console doesn't show up but instead the phone boots normally.
What am I doing wrong?
Is it because my build number is: 2.1.1.A.0.6 and should be different?
try to restore your phone again using the seus.then try recopying the three files again using root explorer.if all you want to do is flash a rom,why not unlock your bootloader and flash a kernel that has cwm recovery on it simple USING FLASHTOOL.because the stock kernel doesnt support most of the other roms. hope this helps.PLS DONT FORGET TO CLICK THE THANKS BUTTON.

Or you can just use Flashtool to install xRecovery automatically, it works better.
This is my first post and frankly I am NOOB at XDA, Please help me. I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i & all I want is to ROOT my phone & install CWM Recovery for testing Custom ROMs there. I read many threads here and learnt that I have to boot my phone in Recovery Mode as I am using Stock Kernel & Stock ROM. I followed the following Thread exactly and tried to use update.zip for ROOTing phone & ClockWorkRec5830i.zip file for installing CWM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1552792
I took my phone in recovery mode by pressing POWER + VOL UP (same thing on screen appears when I press POWER + VOL UP + HOME). It shows the Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i logo and at the bottom left corner is shows
=> Factory Mode
After 1 second it is displaying a yellow Triangle ’ ! ‘ sign inside. Not showing any Text there on the triangle page. Now if I press vol + or vol – or power button it is not working/changing the display. If I press the HOME button, then it is showing the following page:
Android System Recovery <3e>
Android System recovery utility
Reboot system now
Apply update from sdcard
----
----
----
Restore user data
Now when I am selecting Apply Update from SDcard by using VOL up/down and pressing HOME button it is not working but it is showing the first Triangle Page again. Then I have to press the HOME button again to see the default Android System Recovery <3e> page again. No options from that page are working not even reboot system now or wipe data/factory reset.
I tried it many times by removing SD card, SIM card etc from last 5 days and same thing happening. I have to remove battery to Switch OFF the phone. I think the kernel installed in my stock ROM got BUGs. And so that it is not working but I read that I can use ODIN to install CWM or ROOT package by taking my phone in download mode by pressing POWER + VOL DOWN (same thing on screen appears when I press POWER + VOL DOWN + VOL UP). In my phone when it is in download mode it is first showing the Ace Logo & in the bottom left corner:
=> Factory mode
After few second it is showing a page that is like:
Factory Mode
Full test
Item Test
Test Report
Clear Flash
Version
Reboot
Here I can select any option using the VOL key and select option by pressing the HOME key. All option is working OK here. I can reboot phone from here or reset phone to factory condition selecting “Clear Flash” option. I think this is not the download mode XDA members are talking about, I am confused totally. I installed KIES and Samsung Driver from many websites, used another PC and unfortunately my phone is not detecting by KIES or ODIN anyhow. I am sure I installed proper USB driver and used latest version of KIES and Samsung driver. I used ODIN 1.84, 1.85, 1.87, even 4.22 but none of them can detect my phone. I selected the debugging mode in my phone as well.
I can mound SD card in my PC and transfer files. In my Device Manager, It is showing Android ADB Interface and drivers are installed OK. I used SuperOneClick 2.2 and clicked Shell Root and SuperOneClick Log is showing my phone model, manufacturer name etc while ODIN is now detecting my phone (ID:COM) not being YELLOW.
So, I am unable to ROOT my phone & install CWM recovery there either through Default Android Recovery <3e> OR using ODIN because phone is not being detected there. My phone is working OK, my phone don’t have the default apps from Google like Gmail, Google talk, YouTube etc. it has play store & search app from Google only. All the functions of my phone working smoothly but I can’t install non-market app now. My phone info at Settings >> About Phone:
Model number: GT-S5830i
Android version: 2.3.6
Baseband version: S5830IZCLF1
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #1
Build number: GINGERBREAD.ZCLF1
Pls someone help me. I am really being frustrated with my new Awesome looking android phone.
Thanks in Advance.
1. Try another SD
2. If it doesn't help, try flashing last offical firmware. I can provide u with a 4PDA link for the freshest October release.

Thanks for your quick reply.
I tried another SD already and nothing happens when I select "apply update from sdcard". It shows the firrst triangle page again. I tried the same without any SD Card also, nothing. Even, if I select "reboot system" it again shows me the triangle page but phone not rebooting.
I can't flash any fireware because ODIN & KIES both can't detect my phone anyhow. If my current recovery would work, then there would no problem I think...

First of all, wrong device section mate! This is Galaxy Ace S5830i section. Also never ever touch any system files unless you know what you are doing. This is because all your important OS files are present there. Any slight mistake and you will find yourself in a bootloop or in the worse case you can even hard-brick your phone. Now if you can go to Download Mode, then you can flash back the stock rom through odin. Follow the instructions from the below link,
How to Install Original Stock ROM in Samsung Galaxy Y Using Odin
All stock firmwares for Galaxy Y
Next time make sure to post the question in the correct section. Hope I Helped
Hi from a new member in trouble!
I foolishly thought I could update my wife's mini pro to 2.3 so that she could use BT SmartTalk as I tried SmartTalk on 2.1 and it doesn't work.
I rooted the phone ok and installed xrecovery, chargemon and busybox as described on many threads.
Then Powered off, rebooted and went into xrecovery to do a backup which was successful.
I then used the update function in xrecovery to install a ROM update who's filename is update-cm-7.1.0-X10MiniPro-signed.zip after having removed the "assert" statement from the update.script file and rebuilding the zip. The update process seemingly finished successfully.
Did a full factory reset and cleared all the cache's and battery log.
Told xrecovery to reboot and that's when it all went t*ts up!
The phone sticks on the white "sony ericsson" logo and won't boot into xrecovery while pressing the back button so I can't restore the original ROM.
It won't switch off and the only way to switch it off is to remove the battery.
I tried to recover using PC Companion but it says it has no software for my phone.
I also tried the hard-reset by powering on and holding all combinations of the other buttons to no avail.
Using S1tool "identify" function it says it is an unrecognised certificate.
This is the second time this has happened, the first time I sent it back to the seller claiming it was faulty and he fixed it but I can't do that again!
Can anyone please tell me how I can recover the phone, it must be possible as the seller managed it.
Many thanks.
