i recently installed Mini CM7 Pro V20
and was told that the recovery menu works under reboot (not the tapping back button method)
i found that when i press reboot and choose Recovery, it shuts the phone off but doesnt go into recovery mode,
i then installed clock work mod using mini rom manager, and now the phone stucks on SE logo,
so i reflashed the kernal and this time i tried to install xrecovery using x10 flasher
same problem! it stucks on SE logo
is there a method that i can get xrecovery on my mini pro? i was able to turn phone off and on SE logo i hit back and it will go into recovery BUT the shut down>reboot>recovery method dont work
thanks in advanced
I had similiar problem. Try to open the slide keyboard while entering the recovery with back button. I don't know why but it helped me enter the recovery when I wasn't able to do it only with back button.
didnt work

Edit:
did u delete the multitouch module in the /system/lib/modules.. because i saw the ur post in Zp kernel thread and aLeex10 told u how to flash n install over v20.. he missed adding this file.. so if i am not wrong.. there must be file named u20dt.ko or sumthing of that sort..delete it.. n then flash the zp krnel.. u will not get a bootloop..
First try to flash the stock ROM via SEUS or PC Compagnion. If it does not work try a ftf-file you can get from here or find a more actual one somewhere spreaded here.
after that you can try new flashtool to root and install recovery.

Sup guys!
Im so down, because i hade 2 days ago CWM 7.2.0 1.0.8 on my Xperia Mini Pro and i was bored so i just got the CM 9.0.0 1.1.1 and if just seen on it that my battery goes very fast down on that rom the camera is bad and no flashlight working so i choosed the HYBROM v14 and got the .KRsH Kernel v3.0 (MiniPro) and flashed the HYBROM v14 and it didnt work. I turn on my phone it vibrates i see the boot logo after 3 minutes it show me a black screen and then it restart again and do it allways the same if tried it with CM 9.0.0 1.1.1 boot.img with nero droid boot.img and with rage kernel boot.img and it happens allways the same on some kernels i cant enter the CWM. I tried with flashtool to got the 62. kernel from XperiaMiniPro_4.0.2.A.0.62_SK17.ftf and it doesn do andything now i tried three times to flash SK17i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1251-0103_.ftf but it is allways the same it freezes at sony ericsson logo and then after some time i got a black screen and then it restart.
What should i do please help me
I need my phone so early !
1.Have krsh kernel
2.do full wipe, clear cache
3.clear dalvik
4.in mounts and storage,do format system,format data,format cache.
5.Install the rom.
perhaps it'll work..
But before i try to do this, i have to say if tried to set back my phone with WotanClient i cant use SEUS because i have unlocked the bootloader.
So if done it but it starts with Virbation and Sony Ericsson Logo after 2-3 Minute it's black with backlight on and after 30 sec. it restarts again all the time.
But thx ill gonna try it.
EDIT://
No it didnt work because i cant enter with krsh kernel not with 1.6 or 2.0 the CWM so if tried it with the x kernel and i can enter the CWM but i tried it like u said but it doesnt change anything after boot logo it freezes gets quickly phased black and restarts.
First download the custom ROM .zip file and place it on the root of your SDcard.
Then install the kernel you have chosen via Flashtool or fastboot.
Then you will need a ClockworkMod Recovery(or any other recovery, but this is the most popular). Some kernels have it already built in, check in the kernel description.
Next, enter the Recovery by pressing volume down button many times, when phone boots and screen goes brighter. Then make factory reset, wipe cache and Dalvik Cache(last one is under Advanced). Then install zip from sdcard and choose your ROM's zip.
Oh, and if you don't know, which kernel to choose, then for Hybrom ROM should Rage Kernel and X Kernel work, I have had both on my LWW, both were good.
Yeah dude but i know how to do that all but it even dont boot it doesnt matter wichs rom or kernel i choose it allways stuck and sony ericsson logo and then it gets black and restarts.
If tried 2 firmwares with WotanClient and tried to flash a firmware.
It's just the same all the time.
What to do?
****ing damn ****.
My battery is empty and i cant charge my phone :/
The green led just blinking every 10 seconds quickly and when i try to turn it on it just vibrates and thats all.
What to do?
Does just anyone can help me pleeeease !
If you install a custom kernel, then, depending on the kernel of course, mostly you don't get the Sony Ericsson Logo.
So, you might be doing something wrong there with the kernel, as it doesn't get installed and that causes the problem.
Ok it do it like this:
- I go to my fastboot folder
- I have there:
* adb.exe
* AdbWinApi.dll
* AdbWinUsbApi.dll
* boot.img (the one wich i want)
* fastboot.exe
- I hold shift and click the right mouse button and press command prompt..
- i enter in the cmd: "fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img" because "fastboot flash boot boot.img" dont work it never worked for me
- i wait till its done
- i unplug it
- i start my phone its not working
And now i cant do something because my battery is dead and i cant charge it
When you use custom kernel like krsh rage or x, they'll have offline charging.. U just plugin your charger(not usb) it'll charge i guess so...
If flashed my phone again with Wotan and now i can charge it.
But its stucking at Sony Ericsson logo when it try's to charge.
And boot is again ****ed it justs like all the time freezing allways and then black and restart.
Is there a way to check whats broken or to set it back with a another way?
EDIT://
I flashed
- Xperia_Relock_bootloader.ftf then
- SK17i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1251-0103_.ftf and at last
- XperiaMiniPro_4.0.2.A.0.62_SK17.ftf
Not i can run the SEUS it says i have the newest version but i pressed install.
I hope it will fix the problem
EDIT2://
****ing damn **** -.-
Its like all the time the same ****.
Why cant anyone help me

Help please..
did you tried to flash any other firmware (eg. Stock 4.0.A.2.368) via flashtool?
try also to flash stock krenel, then relock bootloader and restore the firmware via PCCompanion
By the way, did you unlocked your device with test point or official method?
maybe both of them?
I unlocked my phone with the offical method and relocked it with Xperia_Relock_bootloader.ftf and it worked.
But when i flash my phone with Wotan and SEUS then my phone should be like i buyed it new or not?
Sorry for my terrible english.
EDIT://
I cant find any ftf for download, the only ftf wich i found for download was "SK17i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1251-0103_.ftf" and all other if downloaded with Wotan..

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

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.

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.

Try pressing the back-button several times before the SE logo appears, if that doesn't help, use flashtool to install xrecovery. manual install can be a pain.

Kindda forgot to add it cause it didnt let me edit cause im new here.
I did it use the Xrecovery to install recovery and CWM.
but i didnt install it from flashtool, what do you mean by that?
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.
