Dead friends, i have installed the 4.0.4 following the tuto step by step, over the ka08,bootloader unlocked, rooted, then i have installed ics stock kernel rev15 via flashtool, but when i want to install ka12 from zip via recovery, Aroma go launch but freeze immidietly or the color of the screen are différent (bug), i Can only use tactile buttons to do the installation, so i dont know what to do to install ka12..? I still in 4.0.4 with ics stock kernel
Thx to you for your answers
yes in aroma launcher if you're using ics kernel, touchscreen wont work, if u want it to be touchscreen used doomkernel04a then install ka12.

Hello everyone
i was trying to install jjhybrid on my Neo ( locked bootloader ) but i got stuck on installing CWM Recovery .
My steps
1)updated with ICS stock from SEUS
2) flashed 4.0.3 with flashtool
3) rooted with doomlord
4) flashed back 4.0.4
phone is working and i got superuser so i think everything wents smooth till here..
I downloaded x-parts and tried to install CWM Recovery , that's where i started having my issue.
CWM folder doesn't get created on SD
Under superuser i can only see X-parts
Can't both to recovery in any way , tried the button in the app ( x-parts ) , volume down , tapping screen , noone works.
Reading the app forum it seems that is a bug with last version .. V7 , and a fix is still not out.
I found that i could install CWM-5.0.2.7-nAa-r2 on ICS even if it was made for GB , ( correct me if i'm wrong ) using the CWM Install as described here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364509
but unfortunately i can't download that .rar mediafire tells me : Access Denied
Downloads are not allowed from this Account. If you think that you should have access to this file, please contact support.
I even tried registering , but didn't help
i also made a factory reset and re-installed x-parts ,
also one thing to notice is that when my phone starts there is no blue led when sony logo is on screen
so.. my questions are :
1) what went wrong ? i assume that once i got superuser all of the above steps were right.. ( 4.0.4 to 4.03 to 4.04 etc )
2) is it correct that i can install an ICS based rom ( jjhybrid 3.2 ) using CWM-5.0.2.7-nAa-r2
if yes , could any of you help me understand what is preventing me from downloading the installer ?
Correct me if i said something wrong or just point me to another solution if there is one ,
Thx a lot
Did you flash the recommended kernel ?
try this..should work..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19341487&postcount=21
or just flash a kernel ..custom kernels have cwm pre installed..problems with these are very very rare..
and blue led is for fastboot mode.. and it depends on the kernel you install,whether you get that light during startup or not..
solution: flash the recommended kernel for the rom..no need to install cwm separately..
then press vol down during boot,go in and wipe,install rom..thats all
follow this page...really helping

I have xperia mini ST15i rooted with stock kernel and ROM ICS. Now I want to use some custom ROM like CM10 JB for it but there is no way to install the clockworkmode recovery on it I tried a tutorial which let me install the tool on my device ad I installed the ROM manger but it is reporting that CWM is not compatible with my device. When I press the Backup current ROM it just reboot and nothing happens, while in article they recommend the CWM to use a custom ROM.
I tried to install the CWM from http://mobilecon.info/install-sony-xperia-clockworkmod-for-ics-and-gingerbread.html
It is installing it but no way to use it.
I'm looking on this article to install the JB on my device.
http://www.teamandroid.com/2012/09/21/update-xperia-mini-st15i-st15a-android-411-jelly-bean-cm10-custom-firmware/
Now I want to know how can I use CWM to use make a recovery of stock ROM and use custom ROM, also how can I go back to stock ROM if custom ROM doesn't work.

Try downloading xparts/xperia parts from playstore and install it. Hope your device is rooted when you try it
Btw for cyanogenmod you have to unlock the bootloader which voids warranty. If you want to unlock look in my signature there's a guide!

I have already tried xparts but it also say that its not compatible with my device while I have rooted my phone already.
Check the command prompt log. is it saying successful installation?if then pressing the correct key after sony logo appears on start-up will put it on the CWM

First of all,download the stock firmware from here: http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?start=0&tstart=0 (For security,if anytime,anything goes wrong..you can revert back to your stock)
Flashtool for flashing custom rom and kernel: http://androxyde.github.com/index.html?1350887833000
You can flash a custom kernel with CWM. I am using kernel Panic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861905
Firmware Flashing tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695514
You have to unlock bootloader for flashing custom kernel.I think for flshing JB,sooner or later,you have to flash custom kernel anyway.Decide about unlocking bootloader.Searc google for "Official bootloader unlocking method"
Note: Installed CWM sometimes doesn't work if your phone gets stuck at sony logo after flashing custom roms.But custom kernel's CWM stays allways active.So,it is better.Just take a backup before flashing custom rom

But why should he unlock bootloader if he only wants to install cwm?
@OP: Please make some screenshots of the installation progress in cmd and in the app. This error message could maybe help us :good:
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227 it should work with locked bl too
then you need to reboot your phone and try to press volume down for multiple times when kernel logo (sony) appears
Hey guys,
actually I didn't want to create a thread for this as I thought I might resolve it myself or that I'll find the answer elsewhere.. But after 5 attempts with each different methods, I don't know what to try anymore.
I have the Xperia MIni (st15) and I want to try the Smultronic ROM. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1796272). My attempts looked like this:
I flashed the ICS .587 stock ROM via Flashtool to get a clean thing to start with (including full wipe)
I root by flashing the .562 kernel, run the Doomlord script to gain root access and reflash the .587 stock kernel
I install CWM (xparts or cwm-install script, both works and doesn't make any difference)
I choose the smultronic 5.0 ".zip" in CWM (no wipe) and follow the instructions in Aroma installer. (Unlocked Bootloader chosen, as I have one).
The installation finishes successfully after a few seconds (!) and I am proposed to reboot.
The result of this is that my phone will get stuck at the SONY screen (>20 min.), which up to my knowledge means that there is no boot process for a ROM, just the bootloader showing it is alive.
I tried a bunch of things, like starting from a "used" stock ROM, fully wipe the system (+Dalvik) before starting the installation or choosing another Recovery installation method. No problem to recover any stock rom, but Smultronic still don't want to start when I try the above again.
I really feel a bit stupid, as this ROM is actually made for my particular device, and I don't manage to install it. Anyone finds the error?
Thanks a lot.

If your bootloader is unlocked, why are you using xparts to install cwm instead of a custom kernel?
To your problem, boot in cwm, do the wipe data/factory reset, install the rom, reboot and see what happens. If it's not working, flash another custom kernel or download an older version of the rom...

Download and flash a custom kernel which will work with the rom.. Try mesa kernel.. Flash it using flashtool... Now do complete wipe and install the rom again...

Hi all i cant get the flashing to work..
im following the [ROOT][FTF][locked/unlocked]Neo/Neo V Official 4.0.4 ICS 4.1.B.0.431; 4.1.B.0.587. thread
and tried Rosh547467 example
1- ICS 4.0.4(4.1.B.0.587)
2. Still locked bootloader. (my phone is unlocked as what i can see with SE bootloader)
3. Flashed 4.1.A.0.562 kernel using Flash tool. (flashtool wont work, its just stuck in "1- unplug the device window" when i try to flash. so i tried SE Bootloader_Unlocking_Relocking and actually did flash 4.1.A.0.562. BUT choose the version with only the kernel and loader. So now the phone dosent have a rom to work correctly.)
4. Done rooting with the help of DooMLoRD's script. (then tried to use this. just keep geting adb drivers to old or waiting for device.)
these bellow i havent tried becouse im stuck.. :crying: I really need help badly..
5. Flashed back 4.1.B.0.587 kernel using Flashtool.
6. Root success. .Tested with rootcheck apps from google play store.
7. Installed CWM from x-part app downloaded from google play store.
8. Installed Titanium backup app and took back of whole app+data.
9. Downloaded custom ROM Xperia ultimate HD 3.0.2 and installed using cwm reboot recovery.
10. Reinstalled my old applications from google play store and restored data from Titanium backup.
Flashing ftf doesnt require root or unlocked BL. you just need correct drivers and latest flashtool.
But if you have unlocked BL, then via fastboot flash any custom kernel which have CWM preinstalled. then flash SuperUser.zip via CWM. you'll be rooted.
i did get this to flash [boof KERNEL] WITH CWM AND ROOT FOR MT11i BASED ON 4.0.2.A.0.62 FIRMWARE
and installed superuser via cwm
and put the zelly cream 2.5.2 rom in.
but when the phone start up, I just get the sony logo. Then it stops
then i found that zelly cream wants suave-kernel. but now im stuck on no wi-fi..
AW: big problem with flashing

Try to reboot your phone. Also look if suave requires extra WiFi modules to work. Mostly they can be flashed with cwm.

Nop sorry dint help. got suave-kernel-v6 on it now but i cant find any wifi modules..
At last it sorted. In my quest do make the rooting and flashing work i did over look one thing.
You need to
4. Wipe data/factory reset.
5. Wipe cache partition.
6. Wipe dalvic cache under advanced menu.
7. Wipe battery stats under advanced menu.
8. Format data under mount and storage menu.
9. Format system under mount and storage menu.
10. Format cache under mount and storage menu.
before you install the Rom :silly:
But now my wife wont kill me, becouse i played with her phone :victory:
Hello there,
I have recently attempted to install a custom ROM on my Xperia U . I rooted using bin4ry , then unlocked bootloader. Everything was fine up to that point. Then I tried to use RecoverX to install CWM. The tool said it was a success, but device could not boot into recovery.It looked like the tool did nothing. I then found a custom kernel by AOKP that had CWM Recovery in it. I flashed and got recovery , but stuck in bootloop. I recovered from this by flashing B.10 stock firmware on my Xperia U using flashtools. I am now looking for ways to install CWM recovery safely.
What's the best way to install CWM in my current situation?
What caused the bootloop I experienced(out of curiosity)?

AOKP is not stock rom..
so its kernel is also not based n stok rom...thats why you got bootloop...
just download kernel which is based on sock rom like trancsend kernek...or phantom...
if you have jb then experimenatal kernel will be best....
and use flashtool to flash kernel...it is the easiest way to flash kernel..
all this kernels are prerooted and has cwm 6.x.x recovery.....
you will get this kernels in devlopment section....
Thank you!
Got it working!
I started off by installing transcendence kernel for stock ROMs. That went flawlessly and so I was presented with CWM recovery(which I started by repeatedly pressing Vol- when the transcendence logo comes up). Went to look for a ROM and found MIUI v4 for Xperia U, followed the instructions and flashed with CWM recovery.Very beautiful ROM. I got all my files from the Xperia U Development section.
Thanks for your help and a big thank you to the developers who make this possible. highfive:

Most kernels nowadays have light notification or vibration or borh for the time you need to press the volume button for cwn, if yours does you only need to press it once within 3 seconds.
