[Q]Help Me Can Not Boot Into CWM - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Help me..
Can not reboot into CWM..
I just reflash my phone, and then root it with the way that I usually use..
But today when I try to root it, I mean on progress by using DooMLoRD_v1_Xperia-2011 my computer reboot and after boot complete a prompt appears that said "Windows has just recovered from serious error" and give an option "send an error report" or "don't send"
After that, re-root it by using the same way and then install the CWM with install-cwm1.cmd(it also I usually use). It run normally, I think everything was OK.
But when I try to boot into CWM it get stuck on the "SONY" logo.
What is going wrong?
I have try to re-flash again, re-root and re-install the CWM still does not work
I think maybe there was a problem with the permission so I attached screenshot of the root and /system
*I have search before posting but can't find the answer

When you flashed the ROM, did you reset to factory settings and wipe away everything?
Doing so might have wiped the recovery too. There is nothing to worry about thou.
I am not sure whether you will be willing to do so, but I would suggest you unlock your boot loader and flash a kernel with built in recovery. A sample of that will be the FreeXperiaProject (FXP) CynogenMod (CM) 10 ROM's kernel. (search for "FXP 144 CM 10")
If you haven't flashed a kernel before, I can elaborate on the procedure or you can look it up on some other threads where it is already explained.

I flash it using SEUS, and I know it will wipe every mod on the system. I have do it several times.
I will explain the way that I usually did. Flash using SEUS -> Power off -> Flash kernel to MT11i 562(if I not wrong, i forget the number) using Flashtool -> Power on-> Root it using DooMLoRD rooting toolkit -> Power off -> Flash back to stock .587 kernel using flashtool -> Power on -> Install CWM by using the install-cwm1.cmd then reboot to recovery..
I get stuck on SONY logo just for now. I think it caused by the windows error that happened when I root it..

I also try X-parts but it does not affect anything. The LED does not show when boot, also nothing happened when I press any button during boot. Also it look like does not touch or add any file to the /system

---

have u repair with SEUS?
or maybe try flash FTF file with flashtool

---

reflash with SEUS
re-download root toolkit and CWM installer
disable your antivirus (if you have it)
try again
if it fails, post the logs of root and CWM install process..

I had try reflash with SEUS, also reflash with Flashtool but still can't get it work..
I still have the zipped file of the root toolkit and the CWM Installer on my flashdisk, so I just re-extract them and still does not work..
Disable antivirus not yet tested, but previously I also did the same thing on this computer and everything was OK..
I will post the log, btw where can I find the logs file of root and CWM install process?

Fisrtly you have to root by flashing 652 kernel from flashtool.. Then you get root accessand now you can cwm recovery..

Yeah, of course you will need neov ics kernel to get root, then flash back original ics kernel. I've suffered a lot of problems with root and cwm, so:
-flashtool: be sure ho have max one firmware in "firmwares" folder at once, then be sure to check the right boxes on the right.
-rooting toolkit: disable internet connection, disable antivirus and firewall (maybe also "User control" in vista-7). Extract "runme.bat" and "files" folder directly into root directory in your PC (it is where you find "windows", "program files"...). So enlarge the explorer windows because it needs to be "on background sight", then open "runme.bat".
-cwm: use the android application "cwm-auto-installer" which is the previous version of "X-parts", you can find it in pureness 13 add-on page. There are many cwm installer which doesn't work, I don't know why.

Yes, I have the MT15i kernel .587, MT11i .562 and MT15i .587 Global ftf..
Previously I always flashing, rooting, installing the CWM with the internet connection enabled, firewall enabled, antivirus enabled and everything work fine.
It just happened since I got my PC restarted when rooting and then the PC prompt "Windows has just recovered from serious error"

Search for pc app usbdeview and by this you can uninstall all usb drivers.. After that install drivers from flashtool connect your phone.. And root then flash cwm..
Try different types to reinstall drivers.. May be sometimes drivers get corrupt

Restart of the pc could be linked to driver faliure and the BSOD (the prompt) could be an hint about it.
For the cwm try to download that "cwm auto installer" from pureness page, but do not update the app. This is the only way that I have to install cwm.

Do you mean CWM Auto Installer now called X-parts? I also had try this, by using this it look like my /system partition not touched by it.. When reboot the LED does not show, also when on the SONY logo I press any key but nothing happens. It just boot like normally into system, does not get stuck nor get to the CWM.. Really nothing happened..
Btw will it have a problem with the hardware???

Ok, I remember one time when I wasn't able to install it at all. It was with JS 7.3, I had to give up and restore a fresh firmware (there were some other problems).
I don't think you have hardware problem, it seems that cwm can't be installed in your phone. So try to install ADB drivers again on PC, then flash new firmware, get root and retry.
Anyway there is a little possibility that cwm can't be installed because of low free space in /system partition...

Yes.. The main thing is adb drivers.. Uninstall it and reinstall.. Then everything should work.. Make sure you are on 652 kernel and rooted.. If you are rooted then xparts should work..
Try this flash alternet recovery from xparts and flash latest recovery..try it couple of times. Same problem I too faced earlier..do screen rotation off then install alternate recovery select 5.3 after flashing it says reboot to check.. And after it install latest recovery.. fingers cross..:sly:
