Maybe you could try to install the framework mod I suggested, in the thread, some users reported it working on .54 rom. Don't forget to make a nandroid backup before flashing, just in case.

Hi all,
I have already unlocked my Sola's bootloader and I have also rooted it using B4nary's tool.
I was able to install CWM via RecoverX v1.4.6. I believe the installation was successful. There were no error message during the installation and I followed all instructions (rooted phone, super user permissions , busybox, etc).
I was not able to enter the CWM menu when I restarted my cell. I am not sure what the key combination is.
I tried holding the power button and the volume up button, that did not work.
I tried holding the power button and the volume up/down buttons which lead to several vibrations and a black screen but nothing more. I think that's the fastboot mode button combination.
I looked through some of the XDA forum topics on that matter but I was not able to find the proper key combination. Please help. :silly:

Please read carefully :-
1) Be it on whatever firmware you running GB/ICS you cannot just install CWM unless you flash a custom kernel which has recovery (CWM) in it...reason to it is that there is no recovery partition to install in Sola
M not sure about recoverX installation tho
2)(this goes if you hv found a magical way to install CWM without flashing a custom kernel not sure of your recoverX thing) the key combination is wrong and also there is an timing when you hv to press it... It's when the phone vibrates after Sony logo and a custom led light (colour as per the modder) flashes...
Combination :- boot the phone and when the phone vibrates after Sony logo + led flashes then press only + volume key n spam it if possible...
3) the combination that you did which switched the phone off is NOT fastboot... Its force reboot and force shutdown and that is
Combination ;- volume + & power button for 5 sec- force reboot continue pressing booth for couple of more sec - force shutdown
4) there are plenty of NOOB friendly posts which I don't think you bothered to search or read!!!

Thanks again for the useful info. However this time you were too fast to judge me in your post - point 4.
I did read the noob friendly posts and I did find out about the led flashing thing and the volume up button pressing. It was explained in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922029 , which I read. However, since I am a noob, I did not know that I specifically MUST HAVE a custom kernel. I am familiar with ClockworkMod Recovery from my old HTC Wildfire cell phone and this is why I used it in a similar fashion on my Sola.
Maybe it was my mistake to consider ClockworkMod Recovery is similar to RecoverX, it certainly seemed that way to me
Anyway , that is the XDA thread for the RecoverX thingy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227
I was not able to find any information regarding having a custom rom on that particular thread. Anyway, I have also read this thread so if I must I will install a custom kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766892.
Thanks for the hint. But just to let you know, I do read threads prior to asking.

It seems as the cell phone has to enter fastboot mode prior to installing CWM. The developer just posted that info today Fortunately he is working on a new big version

Hi,
I use stock ICS + stock kernel on my Sola.
Here is the thread where the developer of RecoverX admits there is a problem with his code: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227&page=18
This is what he says :
"In fact, before begin the installation, RecoverX check if there is a phone connected to the computer thanks to ADB. But I have forget that when the phone is in fastboot mode, ABD doesn't work (it's a big error from me ) so RecoverX can't check if there is a phone connected.
So, the tool is currently not able to install a recovery on Xperia U, P & Sola due to an error in the source code (sorry guys...)."
The nickname of the developer is LEDelete.
So this should be helpful to all noobs out there who do not know how to install a non-stock kernel. Or to people who just do not wish to do it. Very soon all of us will be able to install CWM with this simple to use tool. It is very user-friendly and the developer does provide feedback.
Cheers.
This Recovery based on Munjeni's recovery, so if you like this recovery press THANKS for him.

Just to inform... all recoveries for locked bootloaders can not be used for flashing custom kernels or CM roms that contain boot image... You will have boot loop! So you need to unlock bootloader!

I make CM rom for locked bootloader for U, and I use it as my daily rom, and work very very fine. It isn't hard to make it for this phone too
But you speak well, we need CM ramdisk, but i made a script to boot to rom with CM's ramdisk.
What is benefit runing locked bootloader? Xperia Go allready have method for rrelocking bootloader so having locked bootloader is an bulls**** so I really not understand why you guys keeping botloader locked? These lock making instalations more comlicated and cause mess ...

Don't stop to pressing the button when you see the led, pressing it while you are in the recovery.
It just cycles through the colours and vibrates and then nothing just stays at the sony logo

Probably yes, but i don't use 4.1.2 any more, and you already have an option to make screenshot, press and hold at the same time the "power" and "volume down" buttons.

Hi. Do you have these apps working(please, see attachment ). I wonder why nothing happens when I press their icons.
So, is it a bug of Sony firmware?

Hi,
Yes they work. But i press the top of the icons not the center. I think this i a bug, the navigation bar is behind the small lite app bar

Yes they work for me on Marshmallow 6.0
Easy fix for the icons to be on top of the navbar how they should be ...

I had to reboot in safe mode, then start up one of the small apps, then reboot again in normal mode. It was ok after that.
To boot in safe mode, long press the power button to bring up the power off box. Long press power off and the safe mode reboot pops up.

Hi, I've searched and searched and can't find a useful answer to a simple question - how do I enter the recovery mode in Xperia 1? The usual "press the power button together with Volume down (or sometimes up)" does not work! Another suggestion I found was to restart and quickly tap Volume down (or up) when the Sony logo appears. Also does not work. I sent a message to Sony support and received a reply stating "Unfortunately there is no recovery mode in Xperia devices" (I can upload the message if anyone cares).
So, can anyone tell me how can one enter the recovery mode in Xperia 1 and confirm that you actually did it?
I've entered recovery mode , after like 5 reboot, my phone was bootlooping and i got that screen's with android and i successfully flashed the original stock rom....... that was cool but i would know too how to enter in that

You need to flash recovery first but I don't think it's working on Android 10 as of yet, Sony phones don't come with a stock recovery.

Thanks mate, I guess that's what the Sony support was trying to tell me, but in an incomprehensible manner.
Don't have Android 10 yet, wanted to wipe the cache partition before updating, but I guess I'll wait for the update to come.
