CWM Permanent Recovery Install HELP!? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

I searched, but couldnt find a proper tut to flash CWM Recovery for UNLOCKED Bootloader.
The One i flashed before (BL Locked Method) is Non permanent, as it is deleted when i format /system.
I want to know how to flash CWM recovery With UNLOCKED Bootloader, a more permanent one.
Please help, im a noob to all this as my other phone, LG Optimus Black has no Hassle as BL is unlocked.
I have a Xperia Neo, rooted, and Unlocked Bootloader.
I have CWM installed the easy way currently.
Please help ASAP

Install a custom kernel like suave or nightelf out whatever ics based... You will get permanent recovery...

I can but can't you search a little bit... Searching suave kernel for Xperia neo/v in Google will give instant results. .
Anyway here are the links: suave forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1708532
Night elf: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566871
There are plenty more but you have to search those in the development section... By the way you are on ics right?

Ok, but in this Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994064, there are some kernels, and the op says to install any one of them for the Rom. Do all of them have permanent cwm?

Most custom kernels will have cwm which dont go when you format system... That is an ics rom... You can use the kernel op provides or even suave night elf will do fine... Just be careful you use kernel of your phone only...

but is it possible CWM on stock kernel?

Did it! Flashed suave kernel, which seems to be good.
But im having an issue. im sure i selected the NEO V Suave Kernel for my phone and flashed it,
But on booting into recovery i find it says
CWM Based Recovery v5.0.2.7 FULL (by DooMLoRD)
Xperia Arc [v03] {ICS}
Whereas my phone is a NEO V.
Also, if i use The app Quick Boot to reboot recovery, it just boots normally.
To boot into recovery i have to power off, and power on, continually pressing VOL Down.
Thanks for help!

Don't worry,cwm recovery is same for all but its made for Arc hence displays Arc instead of Neo V
Not an issue at all,no functions affected!
The quick boot issue is your Rom issue I feel

Naah Im just a little to happy to have done it and to see everyone's eagerness to help! And its because of guides from you guys that I know how much I do! I'm not that much out an android noob now!! In my optimus black, kernels can be flashed as Simple zip files, so this flashtool sounded alien to me. But super easy now.

And yeah, no harm in using all my thanks lol

[Q] Xperia Neo V bootloop Problem

Hi..I have unlocked bootloader. I was previously on custom aosp ics based rom (4.0.3). Decided to go back to gingerbread (custom). Flashed night-elf kernel for stock rom v9.0 through fastboot. Installed rom through cwm. Rebooted the system. But it just stucks at the sony logo and reboots and the process goes on and on forever unless i pull out the battery.
Tried reflashing the kernel..no use! When i flash the kernel the phone reboots, the sonyericsson logo appears instead of sony. After that when i try to power on the device it gets stuck in the bootloop with "sony" logo rather than the sonyericsson logo. Help would be greatly appreciated!
Why double post?

as for as your problem i think you have not flashed JB kernel, their are so many kernels for JB choose one or read how to installrom from OP..
I would like to give a brief about locked and unlocked bootloader, it may help to other peeps
if you unlocked your bootloader it doesnt solve the bootloops, the main reason of bootloops are you have to use respected kernel for the respected rom, if you are flashing ics rom then you should be on ics kernel, same for ginger bread (GB) or jelly bean, you shouldnt be confused if you read the procedure of flashing the rom from OP,
whats wrong with locked bootloader?
if you accidently flashed any wrong mod or rom which is not suitable to your stock kernel you get bootloops, and you cannot restore backed up rom immediately because you have to reflash stock from scratch and then recovery, after then only you can flash etc, it is a very painfull process,
why to unlock bootloader..?
unlocked bootloader is like a muscle car , after unlocking you flash custom kernel which has cwm recovery per-installed , if you got any booloops you can easily manage restore backup, or you can flash custom rom which is compatible with flashed kernel, and you can easily switch kernels switch roms flash mods without worry,
this is explained in many ways and many times In xda, but peeps are lazy to search...
Please dont mind if my briefing is boring and useless...
thank you..

[Q] Xperia Neo stuck at "SONY" logo when boot into CWM recovery

Hi everyone. Can anyone help me figure out what's the problem that i cant boot into CWM. I have Neo MT15i running FINE with stock rom ICS .587, locked bootloader and rooted. I also installed x-Parts as well as CWM 5.5 and busybox 1.20. But my problem is that my phone just cant boot into CWM recovery no matter what i did either press and release volume - continuously when "SONY" logo appears, or using x-Parts function to boot into recovery. It just ends up stuck at "SONY" logo (I waited for about 10 minutes but no respond).

Okay here's what happened.. I was on stock ICS 4.0.4 Rooted, CWM installed, tweaks and blah blah.. I came across this Increase system and data partition thread so decided to give a shot.. I made a mistake of flashing the wrong file or something and it went into a bootloop.. I thought it was just another bootloop and decided to go back to stock so I did the usual flashing and rooting kit technique and it was all fine, I even installed CWM(no errors) But when I try to boot into recovery, its not happening!
Its stuck at the SONY logo and goes no further. I have to remove the battery and start it again without pressing any buttons.
I made a backup and just want to restore to that. Help

I rooted (lock bootloader) my neo for the last 6 months using ics stock from sony, until i realized my HDMI not working, so i found custom "Ultimate HD" as my answer, and i did the "how to install.." steps, including install x-parts but failed, then i installed rom manager trying "install custom rom from sd" but again failed, so i tried cwm manual and again had the sam result as in x-parts (which is stuck in bootanimation after sony logo).
Hope you find better solutions

[Q] how to replace ROMS

I have been using Jelly Sandwich 6.2 on my Neo V, with CWM based recovery 5.0.2.7 (locked bootloader)
but now I want to re-install another rom, is there a need to re-flash the kernel ?
Can I change another recovery, such as Clockworkmod Recovery Touch or any other one?
ON THE OTHER HAND, I TRIED SOME ROMS BUT WITHOUT CHINESE, (A) PURENESS (B) ICS REVOLUTORY HD
WHICH ROMS SHOULD YOU SUGGEST FOR ME?
You just need to flash the new rom with full wipes..format etc..
no need to re-flash kernel..
and bout recovery use CWM 5.5.0.4..use xParts to install..CWM touch has some bugs last time i checked dont know if they've been solved now..

I don't think there's a CWM touch for this device.
If you want to flash another ROM, flash the recommended kernel ( for unlocked BL) or use stock kernel itself (for locked BL).

No it won't brick it, it will just install the cwm.
But I suggest pureness it's really fast and unlock your bl!

is it ok to unlock it now, or needed to re-install the 4.1.B.0.587 original ROM first? (now I'm using a Jelly Bean Rom)

I did it SUCCESSFULLY!!!:laugh:
Here are the steps..
1.Turn off your device.
2.Take battery out and dip it in water for 10 years!
3.Now insert back the battery and then hang your phone from a fan and start the fan.
4.While the fan is rotating in full speed connect your mobile to pc.
5.And then flash the kernel and rom using unflashtool.
6.Then do a full flip from a 10000000000 ft. building
Then u'll be successful(in bricking your device):silly:
Press THANKS if I HELPED,

What is the worst case scenario for flashing a ROM for unlocked bootloader on a device with locked bootloader? Will I be able to restore a cwm backup?

Of course you will be able to restore it after flashing stock rom, rooting it and installing cwm

I'm most cases your phone maybe stuck at bootloop (but in some roms, maybe they don't even install without proper kernel) but if u flash the stock ftf file, then root and install cwm u can restore it...
