I'm using Xperia u ST25i and had installed cwm recently. Then I unrooted and restored to factory settings due to wifi problem. And when i was trying to root again i was unable to as after restore the usb debugging mode got switched off and after re-enabling it and self restarting it it didnt get rooted. I tried to repair by reinstaling phone software via PC Companion but nothing happens after pressing volume down and plugging usb chord. Bootloader is locked. I have searched forums for removing cwm but unable to find answer. Please help!

hey everyone, i've got a big problem after using WB's 2.3.3 rom with hotfix v005, i can't turn into xrecovery or conenct to flashtool and reinstall it there does anyone know a solution?
Do you know how to get into xrecovery properly and do you know how to get into flash mode for flashtool properly? Tell me your steps and I will see if they match the proper ones.

well,
getting in xrecovery:
reboot the phone and start pressing the back button at SE logo.
getting into flashtool:
just plug in the USB with debugging in on?
thx

im too afraid to do that... my warranty has finished 2 weeks ago and if it wont connect to flashtool after flashing the stock rom then i won't be able to do anything
But if you install stock gb follow the guides in here you will be able to root and get recovery have you tried installing xrecovery.apk and try it that way

omfg.... did you atleast read any post? i don't need to flash anything... i need for flashtool to just detect my phone...
Or you can try this: after you have flashed a firmware on your phone, reinstall the drivers (SEUS and PC Companion) then reboot your computer. Once PC rebooted turn on USB debugging and Unknown Sources and open up flashtool, it should work.

look, you said to flash using flashtool you just turn on debugging mode. i am just correcting you. is there any problems with that?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
too late ... but solution
download and paste spearately chargemon(file) and xrecovery(file). i think both are in tar format. they should have been installed with xrecovery. but, maybe u accidentally deleted them or corrupted them or 3rd-party-apps could have done the corruption. download and paste spearately chargemon(file) and xrecovery(file) to phone's memory (system/bin/PASTE HERE). if the one or more of the files i specified existed already, you should replace them with the downloaded ones as it is possible that they are corrupted.
THIS IS THE WAY TO GET xRECOVERY BACK coz u said u cant boot into recovery.
(NOT THE SOLUTION TO DRIVERS PROBLEM).
Hi people... i have some serious problems... i have flashed recovery somehow...and It works.. everything els i want to flash-something I can flash something not (error 7.. installation aborted),But every time after flashing rom or kernel my phone is black,nothing happens,one vibration and than nothing..black screen,dead phone..can˙t enter recovery or even see boot logo... where is the problem? please help me because I run seus,root,xrec about 8 times a day to fix/solve this problem

There is high chances of a system file being corrupted. Use flashtool to flash ftf fw. Then install any pre rooted kernel through command prompt using fastboot method.

I forgot to tell, I cant enter fastboot mode... Phone keeps turning on after blue LED comes up,and somehow I can flash dualcore rom somehow... Only that rom but without kernel ofcourse

If you took an ota while wanting to unlock your bootloader you probably shouldn't unlock. You'll end up bricking your phone

In check usb debugging and plug the phone in. This should install drivers, than put phone into download mode, then reboot into fastboot mode. This will insure that you have all drivers installed

So I installed this ROM and tried to update my CWM using this. After I flashed the zip I rebooted my phone and now it won't start. I tried Power + Vol Up but the phone won't respond. I also tried charging, connecting to PC and trying to get into flash mode or fastboot mode but still no response. Help please? :/
@nycdream you realised you flashed an optimus 4x recovery? OP said you must fastboot the kernel inside the rom zip. Ok so you checked that you have proper drivers?

You realy shouldn't flash the zip, fastboot would probably give you an error.
The zip wites to /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 which I don't know what it is for but probably shouldn't be touched.
fastboot had probably give you error

I would think so, not without special equipment and Sony's "bios".
I don't think they can repair such damage at service centers, though you can ask.

Chainfire 3D is incompatible with our phone. Download flashtool and ftf ROM and reflash it, you will be all right.

You should beable to entre recovery if you have a nandroid backup, will save doing a full wipe with a FTF
