I think it's only the kernel as the file name said. The rom must be more than 100Mb big. (it's a long time ago when I flashed ftf...) maybe about 300 MB?

You need to root your ics rom and install cwm. Then you can restore the backup, but this would only help, if you took the backup when some apps and data are on phone. Otherwise this would be useless :silly:
Okk......thanks i restored sucessfully with previous apps n data .....thanks

Hi!
I have been a happy owner of a Live With Walkman for over a year now. I had the 4.0.4 update and everything.
Several times i have tried flashing custom ROMS ending with a bootloop, ALWAYS. And when i mean several, it 10+ times i have tried.
I have a locked bootloader with no unlocking option, kernel 1.6.32.9-perf (stock obviously), build number 4.1.B.0.587.
I have always selected ROMS that can be installed in locked bootloaders (like Real ICS) but always ended in a bootloop. Following always the instructions.
Please help me and tell me what i'm doing wrong. Is it the kernel? Maybe a faulty SD Card (wich i really doubt because i can use it without problem)?
And is there any ROM that's been proved that works with locked bootloader, stock kernel always? I prefer a ROM without sony customization. Just plain android ICS. Sorry if this annoys you and probably you'll tell me to search for a ROM and try. The problem is that i don't trust a lot if it says for locked bootloader and i want a ROM that a user can prove that works and how did he installed it.
Thanks a lot!
Sure you've formatted the whole system and data in mount and storage , and cache?
i ever facing this problem when i was first installing cust rom for my xperia mini,
i was forgot to format the system and data which is not required on my prev device (Xperia X8).
I guess this is the error.
U have installed a recovery mode to your device with locked bl. That means u have installed it to the system partition. When u flash a rom, it wipes your system partition. So flashing process may go with errors.( because the needed files are not present in the device anymore) As a result u may end up with a bootloop and u can't even go back to the recovery mode.
unlock bootloader and flash a kernel that have a recovery mode (it's getting installed to your boot partition). so it won't get wiped by a rom flash.

AW: [Q] Hard time flashing ROM (LwW/WT19)
have tried a rom for locked bootloader which is provided as a backup file for cwm? or have you only flashed .zip files?

Is there any ROM that haves this method? do you have any links?
There are many roms with option locked bl in Aroma, but I don't know why you are getting this error.
Try to use one of Sandy7's roms, hope things will be okay.
Good luck
Edit reason: fixing mis-spelling.

Hello people,
I havevthe same problem, and would like to add another input:
A cwm backup restore also results on bootloop.
Basically, stock rom is rooted, cwm is installed... But after that no new roms can be flashed.
Tried doing 3 wipes+format/system and just 3 wipes, the result is the same: bootloop with no acess to cwm :|

read #3 post and this.
Hello,
I'm kind of a newbie at rooting phones. I've upgraded my xperia u to ICS before rooting.
I've unlocked bootloader, rooted the phone successfully & i've also flashed CWM recovery v5.5xx.
I have done a factory reset recently when my mobile was eating up a lot of ram. Does it remove or corrupt CWM? cos i'm unable to access recovery while booting the phone, i'm only getting access into recovery is by flashtool & even then, when i press "install zip from sdcard", it says mounting error & is unable to access the sd card.
What have I done wrong? Am I missing any step towards flashing a kernel or a custom rom?
please help
(I only want to speed up mobile operations, especially camera.)

There is no problem in reinstalling cwm through bat file just try reinstalling it again...
Secondly
There is no mod available that can speed up camera functionality of xu.... Nt even cybershot mode....

I have re-installed the CWM based recovery through RecoverX
But in the end it says "Installation is complete but the Recovery seems misconfigured", I don't understand what it means, it shows the same msg, no matter how many times i install it

I found a bat file & installed cwm recovery & its working perfectly. Thank you.
Now, all i need is a custom rom or a speedy kernel to speed up my daily operations (at least other than camera)
Please suggest me a custom rom, I've searched few of them & liked miui but someone commented that whatsapp doesn't work in that custom rom, that app is quite imp for me, so please suggest a rom which is faster than the stock rom & every essential app works.
Thanks in advance
Cheers!

ok, so if i installed miui rom or any other rom & decided that i didn't like it. To come back to stock, do I just have to go to cwm & press restore/advanced restore or do i have to do the same procedure like download the stock rom, put it into sdcard & via cwm install it?
P.S. I've already made a nandroid backup, also from titanium backup & all my data is on my sdcard

If you want to revert back to stock and you have made backup of stock from cwm than just use backup and restore to the same....
If you feel the need to install a fresh copy of stock you can download latest firmware and install using flashtool....

samsung galaxy s3 i9300. Rooted with cyanogenmod Installer: http://beta.download.cyanogenmod.org/install
A while ago I tried flashing a costum rom, however i wasnt fully satistied so went back to cyanogenmod. My SDcard space went from 11gb to 2gb left. I went to recovery (CWM Touch) and formatted system and sdcard (which was a huge mistake I believe). As far as I know, I have no rom installed right now after the format. Ive downloaded MIUI and put it on my external SD and tried flashing it from my external SD. After wiping dalvik, cache and factory reset flashing went well. When I press reboot device CWM says "root access is missing, root device?" Now there are 2 options: "no" and "yes root device (/system/xbin/su)". Both options result in my phone stuck at the boot animation.
I thought because I had no root, I had to flash a stock rom. So I downloaded a stock rom and tried flashing it. CWM said "installation aborted". So right now Im kind of clueless. Can anyone help me and tell me what to do? Ive been searchin this forum for quite a long time now. Any help would be appreciated.
Kind regards
Tried deleting data?

yap, there was a lot of data I couldnt access. I wanted to clear the whole SD and flash a new rom so I could basically start over again with a fresh new SD
Which stock rom you installed??
And are you able to flash that miui rom you talking about now??
If it asks fit root just click no.. That's a problem I guess with the recovery not detecting root but you still have it.. just not into your rom by clicking no... then if you don't have root you can flash a supersu file through recovery..

Can u try using odin?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Yes, unless it is a repackaged stock rom you must use odin, not CWM to flash it. You could try using archie's rom or one of Wanam's in CWM. Or download a repacked stock that is flashable in CWM.

Yes the MIUI rom has been flashed "succesfully". Only thing is when I reboot my phone, it gets stuck at this screen:

Huawei(s) have locked bootladers... Which means custom recoveries (cwm, twrp..) are next to impossible to do/use, which means no backups to save you when $h¡+ happens, which also means working ROMs are virtually nonexistent... Sorry bro.. Might be time to exchange/trade in/return..

Does the boot loop take you back to recovery? And if so, does your nandroid restore/work properly?

after insalling a custom rom, if u need to comeback to stock firmware u need to use odin
factory default will not take u back to stock rom.
Anyways factory default will delete all user apps but not system apps, superuser will not be deleted.
But if u use odin to flash stock, root willl be gone
Best of luck for Flashing

Flash Stock Firmware
Btw which Rom did you flash?
also Wipe data cache etc. before performing flash
also remove sim card and charge upto 60% before flashing
Hope This helps
