Howdy All!
So We've been Busy yet again
And we are proud to re-release This Tool. ​Whats new
All New UI that uses the ActionBarSherlock framework to give full Holo theme + Action Bar to devices pre ICS
To support more phones i have had to change the way the app works.
(OLD VERSIONS AVAILABLE IN ATTACHMENTS)
What it does now
1 - Check your phone model and compare it to a list of supported devices.
2 - If you phone is supported you can pick any of the supported CWM versions for you phone.
3 - When you click install it will download the CWM "recovery.tar" to your SD-card .
4 - Build you a "chargemon" file to match you phone.
5 - Take the charger + sh file from within the app.
6 - It then backs all the previous files up to the SD-Card and moves all the files to system as needed.
7 - if there are no problems then it is done and CWM is installed(into system)
Comming Soon
With the new app i am also able to do many new things that were not possible in it's last incarnation
(in no particular order)
1-Click De-Bloating of Stock Firmware
1-Click Enable of Init.d support for locked Bootloaders / Stock Kernels
Few more in the works too
Many more phones
My current plan is to support most Xperia devices
My current plan is to add these soon
X10, X8, Xperia S, U, P, Sola
also if there is no compatibility issues the app does not need to be updated to add phones / recoveries. I can do it all server side.
This App will work with the Sony Xperia porfolio. it will install CWM into the system partition so you can use recovery even with a locked bootloader!
Usage
Launch the Application,
Swipe Between Tabs or Pick Tabs
Let it detect your phones setup
Press Install and CWM will be installed into your system.
To access recovery simply, reboot phone and press any key on boot at the Sony Ericsson logo, when the notification LED turns Blue. or use the "reboot to recovery" button from within the app.
Recovery
Currently there are 2 recoveries that are able to be installed
2.3.* Roms
5.0.2.7 for GB Roms (nobodyAtall) [link]
4.0.* Roms
5.5.0.4 Recovery for ICS Based ROMS (pvyParts)
Changes
-USB Storage Mount works
-System wont be corrupted (Thanks nAa for the pointers + puppet13th for testing)
Requirements
Stock ROM
Root
(Locked Boot Loader, if you are unlocked you really don't need this)

There are some people who don't always have wifi or data connection to use Xparts. This is quite handy, actually. Especially now that I don't have a fast wifi connection but badly needing cwm recovery.
