Best method for CWM on Xperia S ? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello,
What"s difference between all CWM methods (install.bat, RecoverX...) ?
I got an Xperia S rooted and unlocked boot and I would like to know if is there any limitation between all methods
What is the best for my case( Xperia S rooted and unlocked boot), i will use custom rom, kernel...
Thanks,
Sorry for my bad english

If you're unlocked, just flash any kernel you like. Arakmar's advanced stock is just stock + CWM and other kernels like XSX or KA have more features. Be careful not to flash a CM9 kernel though, it won't work with Sony stock.

Unlocked Bootloader 0.62

I have my xperia live with walkman's bootloader unlocked the normal sony way. I am on 0.62 firmware. What now?
I am basically looking for rooting and CWM installations...but the ways i find for installation of CWM require root and the methods for rooting require CWM.
Any help?
P.S. I am open for long methods...noob with the phone, not with technology
Try to use Doomlord's Root.

Well you need a kernel with pre-rooting and CWM. For that i recommend Rage kernel v2.8 you can even use x kernel. All you need is an unlocked bootloader.
When ever i flash back to stock .62 on my Mini i immediately flash Rage kernel and everything is up ready to be modded.
Hope this helps.

[Q] ROMS not works.

Hi Guys!
I had root my Xperia Mini Pro and instal CWM.
I'am on GB.
When i instal a ROM, Real ICS or Real ICS lite, i can see only sony ericsson logo.
I waiting during 15min, and nothing has change.
Now I unlock bootloader , but i always see only sony ericsson logo, when i start the phone after rom installing.
What can I do?
I never had there problems with my old x10.
PS: "From the downloads section, download kernel installation package and extract the folder."
Where is this section? Where can i download kernel instalation package? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27376017&postcount=2)
I'am sorry for my very bad english.
every rom has its specified kernel
For stock based ICS Roms you can flash
Rage Kernel(v3.2)
Krsh Kernel
Mesa kernel
for CM 9.0 flash the kernel included the zip file by FXP
there are some kernels for GB roms as well you can search them
So, if i want to instal RealICS rom, i must instal first the rom and next i instal specified kernel with fastboot, yes?
Beacuse RealICS dont work with stock kernel.
PS: If i flash Krsh kernel and next i instal a stock rom with flashtool, Krsh kernel is remplaced for stock kernel?
First kernel, then rom.
And, make sure u have unlocked bootloader to install custom kernel.
Or, u can use rom which based on official ics. Like expeacer rom.

Hmm, it is complicated ; o
I'm sure, my bootloader is unlocked. I check in system info.
I'am on Stock GB , rooted with CWM and unlocked bootloader.
And now i want to instal RealICS. I have to instal Krsh kernel for ICS, but i have GB. How i do? First i have to instal Rooted ICS ? And later i instal Krsh kernel for ICS and I instal RealICS rom?
Or can i instal RealICS with rooted GB?
I'am lost ; |
D'oh. They already gave the answer yet u still ask the same question again.
U need to read, lots and lots of reading.
- turn off the phone
- boot to fastboot and flash ICS kernel
- when booting up ..enter cwm
- flash rom
- reboot
an0nym0us_ , that's right i have to read a lot. Beacuse i not understend a lot of words.
And i want to be sure for the instalation, beacuse i try a lot of times, and i had always sony logo.
Thanks for all the anwers ; )
Now i go to instal the rom.
I follow caer_ayu's tuto.
do a full wipe
and
format system (optional)
before flashing new roms
good luck m8
My guess is u didn't do wipe data in recovery before flashing the rom, hence the stuck at boot.
Good luck.
First things look complicated. Once you understood the basics all is much easier.
Most custom roms need custom kernels. Custom kernels can only flashed with unlocked bootloader.

I did all wipes and formats. But with the stock kernel , RealICS dosen't work.

Thanks one again!
And sorry for my bad english.

and how do I put CMW reocvery, because I want to put this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2220537
maybe you can find here what you search
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1842366
and 4.1.2 is not ICS its JB
Since u tried cm, I am sure ur bootloader is unlocked.
So the easy way to root now would be to flash any custom kernel. It will be prerooted.
If you still want ti retain the rooted stock rom
Flash kernel and flash stock excluding kernel
Or flash stock and then flash kernel

Yes most (I believe all) custom kernels will have cwm ( or twrp,) so yes.
Try goin to dev section and find the list of kernels in stickies and find a jb kernel.

From sola android development section you can find custom kernels with autoroot script and cmw integrated since your bootloader is unlocked.
Here are some links for kernels based on stock ics:
