[ZIP/CWM/ROOT] Post ROM Install Zip For Locked Bootloaders - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

This is for only Phones with Locked Bootloaders ...
This may enable People with Locked Bootloaders to use any ROM based on the Stock 4.1.B.0.431 ROM .
What does this Zip do ?
Re-Installs CWM recovery and Installs SuperSU app .
Requirements:
Rooted ICS Stock/custom ROM
naA or pvyparts's CWM Recovery.
How does this work ?
Before flashing ROMs meant for Locked Bootloaders
Format system,data and cache
Flash the ROM with install from zip option
At the end uncheck the Reboot system option so you go back the recovery
Use the install from zip option and Flash the PostInstallCWM.zip ..(once only)
Reboot device
Tested on:
DryDroid
Flush78 ICS_cold
MiniCMSandwich Lite
NeroICS_v2
RealICS_r4.1
RealICS_r5.1
Real ICS Lite r2
What about the locked Bootloader optios in ROMs ?
Sometimes the stock system charger overrides the custom required for Locked BL CWM therby blocking access to recovery .
What if I flash the zip twice ?
Chances are the zip may be aborted when extracting /xbin/sh and /xbin/su will be deleted .But you can reflash root using Root zips .
Why did you include root ?
Some ROMs have faulty root permissions and I like SuperSU over Superuser ...(or duplicate root binaries )

Every stock based custom rom, can be installed on locked bl without this too. Cm9 too, but you will never get working videorecording and playback...

Ok..
Can you tell me ,what ROM did you flash this Zip over ?
Also do one thing .
mount system with CWM
use this command in cmd - adb shell
Code:
#find /system -name 'recovery.tar';find /system -name 'charger';find /system/bin -name 'chargemon';find /system/xbin -name 'sh';find /system/xbin -name 'su';
and cross check if the files are present

CyanogenMod wont work ..

Like I said this zip doesnt do anything beyond installing root and recovery .
Sorry !!.
