Hello, I got my Xperia P this week and also Im kinda noob with android phones, but here is a small question, how do i install recovery on my phone? Do I have to unlock my bootloader then install ROM manager? And what next? I heard i should enter the fastboot mode or something like that and flash my rom which already has recovery.

hi all, I am a beginner in android.
I was trying to flash a custom kernel and rom for my Mini pro by following the tutorial thread. I rooted my Mini pro and unlock the bootloader. Busybox and cwm-auto installer were also installed.
However, when I tried to install kernel by fastboot and result said the device is not rooted. I tried again with flashtool but result was just the same. I had already rooted my device several times and therefore I dont understand where the problem is.
Please help. Thanks for your answers first:victory:
Did you place your phone in fastboot mode(blue LED)?
Which way did you unlock your bootloader?
Rooting can't affect the kernel installation at all. Doesn't matter if you are rooted or not, it should work anyways.
For use flashtools to update kernel you must open your boot loader and flash it easy, kernel update no need to root your device. Because you try update in fastboot or flash mood .
I think your problem is other things example boot loader not opened or ...

please help me, i'm newbee for rooting my lovely xperia mini, but i can't enter my xperia to recovery mode:crying:...
please...!!!
thank you:good::good::good::good::good:
Like I told you a few times now,there's no recovery mode
Install the recovery via xparts from the playstore or unlock your bootloader and flash a custom kernel. Or you just check out my guides for rooting your device, as you don't need the recovery to root

Hi
I am a noob when it comes to android but i have managed to get root access on my device and i have installed CWM recovery, my question is how do i now install a custom rom, my device is bootloader unlock allowed No, so i am aware that the kernel can not be modified and this will limit the roms that can be installed, but after hours of searching i have found a hand full of roms that say they will work with locked boot loaders but stop the phone booting. am i installing them wrong?
Thanks
Josh
You can only flash Roms with locked bootloader, like modded Originalfirmwares, you download it copy it on SD Card and go in CWM flash the Rom and then do a whipe and restart and enjoy
I am trying to install http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/development/rom-stoneui-hd-118-t2952024, i have root and cwm i install from my sd card and reboot but it just shows the sony logo untill i hard reset and reflash 14.4.A.0.108.
I've recently flashed CyanogenMod 12 Rom on my Xperia T.
Yesterday I tried to install BRAVIA Engine 3 by flashong a .zip, but I got an error "E:cannot load volume /misc!".
I've read some threads and the comments below and what I understood is that the Cyanogen Recovery can't flash ZIP files...
That's why I want to replace it, but I'm not sure how. I flashed TWRP on Xperia T's stock ROM with adb in fastboot mode and what I want to know is - if I flash it again through fastboot will it work properly and is it safe?
If this is not the way I need some help with replacing it with TWRP, CWM or any good working recovery......
I hope someone will answer this.....
Solved
I've used "Rashr - Flash Tool" and flashed TWRP. It shows you the latest version of TWRP and flashes it.
Working fine on me Xperia T with CM12.
Hello,
I tried this morning to install a custom ROM for my sony xperia z5 compact. Unfortunately, it remains crashing on the "Sony" screen
I unlocked the bootloader via the official link https://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/. Until then no worries, everything worked well.
Then I wanted to install a TWRP recovery via this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/twrp-3-1-0-z5-z5c-z5p-t3571050
I was able to flash it without worries but when restarting, TWRP asked me if I wanted to install the app, I put OK and from there, impossible to start my phone. "always stuck on Sony screen".
this is my config : E5823 / 32.4.A.1.54
I want just to start my phone. Is there possible to put a stock version? thanks
This is very urgent to resolve it unfortunately
Thanks for your help
you can close this subject, problem solved. Thanks
Wanna share how you fixed it?
Yes sure,
I flashed my recovery with the TWRP 3.1.1 posted before with the command "fastboot flash recovery {name_of_file.bin}" and I did a flash of the boot with the good version of boot with the commande "fastboot flash boot {name_of_file.bin}.
I founded the good boot at this address for my version : https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/32-4-1-54-coming-t3685995
