[RECOVERY][UNLOCKED & LOCKED BL] Multi-Recovery System with touch & led+vibra trigger
These are xrec flashable zips of multi recovery system for locked bootloader
someone please make cwm zips with these files. i forgot making and now I'm out of home
with bootmenu
without menu
INSTRUCTIONS
as device boot, yellow led will flash and phone vibrates, please press button at that time
with menu : -
back button > menu
without menu :-
back > xrecovery
vol up > cwm 5 recovery
vol down > touch recovery
NOTE
users on locked bootloader can also use this just for testing/fun/requirement
when booting, wait for YELLOW led (when see blue led of cobrato/oodie/doomkernel or pink led of fxp/achotjan kernel, just wait 3.seconds, then phone will vibrate and you'll see yellow led, then press button )
WARNING!!
in with menu version, pressing back takes you to boot-menu (of doomlord) but beaware, it'll take almost 30-45 seconds for bootmenu to appear. I'm working on this problem. PLEASE DO NOT SHOUT "ERROR ERROR, BRICK BRICK" WITHOUT WAITING FOR 45 SEC AFTER PRESSING BACK BUTTON"
Similarly for without menu version, booting to doom's touch recovery takes almost 1 minute. (Cwm5 and xrec boots instantly, without problem)

this will work i guess (cm7 I'm totally sure, cm9 I've not tested)
but please ask someone to make cwm zip for you(this one can be flashed only by xrec) as i do not have laptop with me to make now
edit
hey!!! wait wait wait...what do you mean?
if you are on fxp then your bootloader is unlocked right?
why not see the "kcernel" link in my signature and get kernel #4 or #3 from there?
those are fxp kernels with these recoveries included

1.Turn off your phone
2.Reboot it back
3.The first Sony Ericsson should show up,don't waste your energy to press the volume rocker (down) button
4.When the boot animation played,press the volume rocker button several time until you enter the Clockwork Mod Recovery OR wait until the blue led appear (which only around 2 seconds I think) and press the volume rocker button several time until you entered the CWM Recovery

Doesn't matter how many times you click it, once is enough, but you can more also.
I always, when restarting, I do other stuff while clicking the volume down button rapidly, too lazy to wait.
nothing works except xparts... Help!
Okay I rooted my LWW with stock ICS 4.1.B.0.587 and installed CWM through xparts.
I can boot into CWM through xparts, create backup and also have flashed it back.
But the problem is, I can boot into CWM only through xparts. I tried manually as explained above (pressing volume down key and when it didn't work, tried the volume up key too) but nothing works. Every time I try, it boots into system and I've to go through xparts to boot in CWM.
My concern is I'm afraid to install any custom ROM's now. If my phone gets stuck in boot loop, I won't be able to boot into system and hence no xparts and no CWM.
How to have a full fledged recovery CWM, like I had in HTC Pico/Explorer(A310e) which could be booted through it's fastboot menu.
Please help, I'll definitely press thanks.
Have you tried installing a custom kernel? Flash your specified kernel through flashtool and boot to CWM via the button. As soon as you see the Sony sign continuously press the volume down key.
Hope this helps

Hi all,
I have already unlocked my Sola's bootloader and I have also rooted it using B4nary's tool.
I was able to install CWM via RecoverX v1.4.6. I believe the installation was successful. There were no error message during the installation and I followed all instructions (rooted phone, super user permissions , busybox, etc).
I was not able to enter the CWM menu when I restarted my cell. I am not sure what the key combination is.
I tried holding the power button and the volume up button, that did not work.
I tried holding the power button and the volume up/down buttons which lead to several vibrations and a black screen but nothing more. I think that's the fastboot mode button combination.
I looked through some of the XDA forum topics on that matter but I was not able to find the proper key combination. Please help. :silly:

Please read carefully :-
1) Be it on whatever firmware you running GB/ICS you cannot just install CWM unless you flash a custom kernel which has recovery (CWM) in it...reason to it is that there is no recovery partition to install in Sola
M not sure about recoverX installation tho
2)(this goes if you hv found a magical way to install CWM without flashing a custom kernel not sure of your recoverX thing) the key combination is wrong and also there is an timing when you hv to press it... It's when the phone vibrates after Sony logo and a custom led light (colour as per the modder) flashes...
Combination :- boot the phone and when the phone vibrates after Sony logo + led flashes then press only + volume key n spam it if possible...
3) the combination that you did which switched the phone off is NOT fastboot... Its force reboot and force shutdown and that is
Combination ;- volume + & power button for 5 sec- force reboot continue pressing booth for couple of more sec - force shutdown
4) there are plenty of NOOB friendly posts which I don't think you bothered to search or read!!!

Thanks again for the useful info. However this time you were too fast to judge me in your post - point 4.
I did read the noob friendly posts and I did find out about the led flashing thing and the volume up button pressing. It was explained in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922029 , which I read. However, since I am a noob, I did not know that I specifically MUST HAVE a custom kernel. I am familiar with ClockworkMod Recovery from my old HTC Wildfire cell phone and this is why I used it in a similar fashion on my Sola.
Maybe it was my mistake to consider ClockworkMod Recovery is similar to RecoverX, it certainly seemed that way to me
Anyway , that is the XDA thread for the RecoverX thingy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227
I was not able to find any information regarding having a custom rom on that particular thread. Anyway, I have also read this thread so if I must I will install a custom kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766892.
Thanks for the hint. But just to let you know, I do read threads prior to asking.

It seems as the cell phone has to enter fastboot mode prior to installing CWM. The developer just posted that info today Fortunately he is working on a new big version

Hi,
I use stock ICS + stock kernel on my Sola.
Here is the thread where the developer of RecoverX admits there is a problem with his code: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227&page=18
This is what he says :
"In fact, before begin the installation, RecoverX check if there is a phone connected to the computer thanks to ADB. But I have forget that when the phone is in fastboot mode, ABD doesn't work (it's a big error from me ) so RecoverX can't check if there is a phone connected.
So, the tool is currently not able to install a recovery on Xperia U, P & Sola due to an error in the source code (sorry guys...)."
The nickname of the developer is LEDelete.
So this should be helpful to all noobs out there who do not know how to install a non-stock kernel. Or to people who just do not wish to do it. Very soon all of us will be able to install CWM with this simple to use tool. It is very user-friendly and the developer does provide feedback.
Cheers.

Thanks the riports! I i will fix the volume button boot and i will work more with this recovery in next week.
But i need a bit help to the volume button, because i don't have the device, please do this and riport to me:
Open commander and go to adb shell
write this to there: cat /dev/input/event0 and pressing the volume- button in the phone.
If you don't see anything, unplug the phone, plug again, go to adb shell an type this:
cat /dev/input/event1
(and change the number in the end, while you don't see anything like in the screenshot, when you pressing the vol- button)

We're so lucky to have something like this now!
I have one problem already however, I wiped everything, tried to restore a backup from when I got my Sola (Gingerbread) and it just killed the phone, couldn't enter recovery. I've flashed many of my older Xperia devices and I don't know what went wrong. I thought maybe the kernel but the backup takes the kernel too, no? I'm flashing ICS with the flasher, re-root et. but I'm just tyring to figure out what went wrong.
THANK YOU It's working
Keep going !
Works 100% on sola, no problems?
-because nandroid backup is very slow to ext card/sd card
-rom flash works?
Again made a .sh equivalent to the .bat file.
Didn't test this one (it shouldn't be that different from the U one) but please be cautious!

Just to inform... all recoveries for locked bootloaders can not be used for flashing custom kernels or CM roms that contain boot image... You will have boot loop! So you need to unlock bootloader!

But you speak well, we need CM ramdisk, but i made a script to boot to rom with CM's ramdisk.
What is benefit runing locked bootloader? Xperia Go allready have method for rrelocking bootloader so having locked bootloader is an bulls**** so I really not understand why you guys keeping botloader locked? These lock making instalations more comlicated and cause mess ...

Don't stop to pressing the button when you see the led, pressing it while you are in the recovery.

my device was rooted and custom recovery after i unlocked my bootloader and yes i did back up ta.
im trying to install cm11 and i flash the boot.img across using fastboot and then reboot trying to go torecovery to flash zip. but! soon as i flash boot.img and reboot it hangs on sony logo no recovery working or anything, any ideas guys? atm the device on bed as im about ready t throw it out window... ( i wouldn't but its tempting)
Did you press the volume keys when the purple LED showed
Hold the red key under the left flap, powrr up the device and hit the volume up key a few times
You may need to install CWM to recovery (general section > recovery thread)
installed a recovery and done a key test it looks like the volume up key wasnt working properally, it s now working thanks anyway bro
