Hi, im using Neo V and when I flash a new rom to try I cannot reach my recovery and I install it again. I didn't unlocked bootloader, I don't know why I can't reach my recovery after flashing a new rom but, I want to solve this problem. I'm using X-Parts to install CWM and I installed Stock ICS Recovery. There are 2 more cwm that we can select. What should I do? I don't want to install it again and again.

Recovery is located at system partition... when u install a new rom, at first u format the system partition, that’s why u have to install recovery once again after flashing rom.. A custom kernel has built in recovery, but u needs unlocked bootloader to flash custom kernels...
Like samak says^^ try unlock
Yur BL n install custom kernel
(ne suave..) they have cwm built

I don´t recommend X-Parts, it doesn´t rule for my Neo and I wanted a more actual CWM, so i use another I download wich is 5.5 (and some digits more)..(have fix permissions)

Unlock your bootloader and flash a kernel with cwm integrated.
Suave v6 and night elf 1.5 come with fix permission at cwm.

Is there a guide somewhere for how it works?
If you flash custom roms with it or any roms in fact, do you still lose root?

You don't need rom manager to flash custom roms.

Put the zip file on you root folder, Then power off the phone & switch it back on pressing up to boot into cmw. Once cmw loads select flash zip from SD & select the zip file you want to flash...
What about backing up my current system/rom etc? How do I do that?

Mate
You should have flashed an Ics fw atleast
Before flashing an Ics Rom
Anyways flash. 587 fw using flashtool
Then root it using doomLord's kit
Refer to Madfysh's thread
Also then before installing Rom
Flash a custom kernel
As in that you get cwm in built
Then do all wipes
Format system format data
Is also needed
Then install Rom
Follow instructions in Aroma!
Done

You need an ics kernel. You were on gb and with your new rom you are on ics.
Your bootloader is unlocked so flash a ics kernel. There a plenty to choose from. For example stock, advanced stock, suave or night elf.
Flash the kernel and your phone will boot. Look if it functions well, otherwise install the Rom again.

Flash kernel through fastboot mode
There's a thread in sticky section
Have a read before flashing!
Also read thread of kernel you've chosen to flash!
And to enter into fastboot mode
You've to press menu button at right side beside home key and plug usb into pc holding that button

I flashed ics kernel and then i'm able to boot into recovery.i flashed rom again and it worked thank a lot
Hello guys.
I am new here.
So i have Sony Xperia Neo V and i tried to flash some roms from here.
I did unlock bootloader officially. The easy way.
After that, i managed to flash a kernel via flashtool. Root and CWM installed as well.
I downloaded and flashed a miui rom for neo v, followed instructions (full wipe,cache,dalvik). The result: got stucked on the Sony logo screen.
I waited for like 15 minutes but nothing happened. Then i tried to boot on cwm in order to flash again or flash some other roms but i couldn't. I tried all the combination keys but i was unable to boot on cwm.
After official unlocking BL, seus won't let me update to factory settings.
So i tried to flash other files(custom and official kernels sony provided) with no success. It got stuck on flashtool at ~8% the first time.
After that nothing. Literally. No sony logo, no boot.
I can connect on flash mode (green led) but i can't do anything else.
I strongly believe that my phone is bricked now.
Is there any way to do something to unbrick?
P.S. 1 I tried FOTA unbrick tool but nothing.
P.S. 2 Sorry for my bad grammar.
Thanks in advance
Try to flash the stock ftf using flashtool!
Or else use SEUS!
That can UNbrick your phone!
Or
Flash custom kernel like
Suave, alliance,super stock,etc
Flash kernel like these via fastboot mode, not via flashtool flashmode!
That has cwm inbuilt ....and you can access recovery mode by pressing vol down button repeatedly!

Which miui rom did you choose?
Was it a miui rom that works with stock kernel or a rom that requires a custom kernel?
My mistake was that i was trying on flashmode not fastboot.
So now I flashed Suave kernel and GB rom. It finally booted ))
Now i'm going to be more carefull.
Thanks to you guys.

Btw you made a mistake!
Suave is an Ics kernel
So use that kernel along with Ics Rom not GB good luck!

it depends on kernel, whether ur kernel supports cwm or not.

mostly u cnt jst flash cwm recovery over xrecovery

then u can only use xrecovery.
kernels of fxp, achotjan, etc supports cwm recovery for which u need to unlock bootloader

is there any different between the xrecovery and the cwm

Xrecovery is pretty old.. with an older kernel generally.. get another rom and kernel.. they'll most probably have cwm and a faster kernel. Try cyanogenmod based ROMs. The devs usually give kernels tweaked specifically for the ROM. And they hv cwm

I'm having the same problem as OP... had xrecovery installed a long time back and now can't install newer roms.. is there a way to wipe xrecovery to install CWM?
Read my previous post.. get a kernel which has cwm

I used Flashtool 0.9.9 and installed a standard GB 2.3.3 firmware build.
I then rooted the XPERIA X10i using Force ZergRush exploit.
Then I was able to installed the recovery methods of xRecovery OR CWM from Flashtool 0.9.9
I could then boot into CWM recovery mode.
I was just being curious George as I wondered if I could do it as I was trying (without success) to installed CM10 from my SDcard. (status7...another story)
I re-installed GB 2.3.3 and went back to xRecovery as that's what my backup data restores are written with.
So, maybe an option depending on requirements and environment.
I did, like right now, attempt to re-install CWM via Flashtool 0.9.9 with xRecovery active and even though it said it'd installed successfully, a reboot into recovery shows it was still xRecovery. So I would suggest, without further research that if xRecovery is installed it can't be over written with CWM via Flashtool 0.9.9 without first re-installed the firmware and starting from scratch.

Not true at all.. u just hv to use flashtool and select "boot into specific recovery" option. Both ur recoveries must be there. also, u need a cm10 specific kernel to install it.. u can't just use ur existing GB kernel with cwm recovery n expect cm10 to work..

Brother, you flashed a jelly bean kernel so you can just run CyanogenMod10 based roms(android 4.1.2 roms)
If you're going to flash a gingerbread rom(CyanogenMod7) (android 2,3) you must use a gingerbread kernel like : "nAa 14 gingerbread for x10mini"
Good Luck
