wt19i does not have a built in recovery like the samsung phones.
you have to install it.
if you have root already, then proceed to this thread and follow instructions.

browse the last few pages of that thread, i believe somebody has got it working.

Unless you're talking about CWM recovery (keep pressing repeatedly volume down when you see Sony logo, until you enter CWM), there's also a so called 'safe mode', check this thread.
Thankz
Thankz everybody,cwm works perfec to me, i Thought it have its own built recovery, thz

You can't install cyanogenmod before you have unlocked your bootloader. You can unlock by official sony method for developers (look in my signature for a guide) or by testpoint method. Otherwise you can't install a rom for unlocked bootloader because you aren't able to flash a kernel boot.img.
When your bootloader is unlocked, in most custom kernels cwm is integrated
Don't try to flash a rom for unlocked bootloader on a locked bootloader, otherwise your device will brick and you will have to flash the original firmware with flashtool!
Ah btw to install cwm on ics you must have rooted ics (you can't root ics like gingerbread firmware .42, you will have to do it like this) and then you can download the x-parts app from playstore which can automaticly install cwm
I rooted device and have X-Parts.
Installed Recovery 5.5.0.4 by pvyParts.
I am able to restart in recovery mode.
Do I understand it right?
Even if I have recovery installed I won't be able to install CM or other ROM with locked bootloader?

You can install roms especially made for locked bootloader, like ics based "real ics lite" or "MiniCMSandwich". There are some MIUI rom's around here, too, but stock rom is the smoothest

If your phone is rooted, you can uninstall crap like facebook on every rom. Just download an app like titanium backup or any other app and uninstall it

These are the apps on your sdcard. Be sure you have ca 1,5 gb of free storage on your sdcard when you start the backup. The size depends on how many apps are installed/etc but 1,5 should be good to be on the safe side

It says sd-ext.img not found on every backup I take so there's no problem. For more information about sd-ext use the search

Hi Folks,
I have a stock .587 firmware with locked BL.
I have done some tweaks on it listed below:
- New adreno libs.
- Walkman port V6 by ThilinaC
- removed bloatwares manually and freezed some others.
- JB SystemUI changes by ThilinaC
- adrenaline boost, etc.
I was learning on decompiling and recompiling the apk's. So I picked up the simplest one. i.e. enabling on screen buttons in framework-res.apk.
I made change into in one of the xml and I successfully rebuilt the apk. and flashed it using root explorer. But it gave bootloops.
I tried starting CWM recovery using volume down button at the Sony logo as usual. But it didnt start. I tried so many things like connecting to USB and restarting the phone at that time to start recovery by same pressing volume down button method.
But it didnt work still.
Since I was not able to go into recovery, and since my nand backup was some days old and had some data which was needed.
I flashed only system partition from the .587 ftf. using flashtool and rooted the phone again using normal procedure.
I thought the volume down button will work for recovery but it is still not working. (The button works normally when phone is on i.e for volume down process.)
Please help me what can be done.
P.S.: As of now I can go into recovery using x-parts or any other tool like titanium. But only manual recovery entry is not working.
So it means, I wont be able to go into recovery if I get bootloops again. And I am afraid to change/port anything on my phone now.
try the back button instead of the volume down button

back button also didnt work.. Thanks for your reply anyways....
To add to my point....when I repeatedly press volume down/back button, the LED turns blue,,,but as per my observation, previously it used to stay till recovery starts, but now it turns on for 4-5 seconds and then goes off, and then the Experia bootanim shows up.
Is it like the exploit which activates recovery at boot time is damaged?(just a guess)..If maybe yes..how can I solve it?
Try to install recovery again via flashtool.

How did you install CWM? Try taping on screen when you see boot logo.
gregbradley said:
Or flash a stock kernel with recovery included (I think you can still do that with locked bootloader, but not sure as I unlocked as soon as I got the phone)

Thanks Madfysh...tapping on the screen worked... :good: so happy...
I had tried every button.. Didnt think of screen though...
Initially, I had installed CWM thru DoomLoRD's rooting toolkit. Then I had installed x-parts by pvyParts. There it said a new CWM version was available(v5.5). So I had upgraded that.
Was it the upgrade that had this change?

There is one version floating around which is using tapping on screen to enter in recovery, so since for you, back and volume- didn't work. Tap on screen was only option left, having in mind that you said that you can enter recovery using xparts, meaning that your recovery is installed ok.
p.s. I doubt you used doomlord's root toolkit to install CWM

For rooting I used Doomlord's toolkit. and the CWM 5.0 comes with that only..I had read somewhere about xparts...so installed it and updated the recovery.tar thru it...that must have done the trick...
Sorry Guys for making this thread..I really didnt find the required thread..
Actually i use galaxy r and in that i know how to enter recovery, flash everything.
This is my friends mobile he gave me to just check what is wrong.
I dont know how to enter sony ericson recovery mode in this live with walkman..
I tried pressing Vol up and power but i got red led and the screen was blank..Is der any other method to enter recovery?
Now what can i do?..Can i flash a stock fw..If so which version ...Iam not able to check anything since the mobile wont boot at all..It repeats the process of sony logo- walkman boot animation.
I downloaded the flash tool also from some thread..
Is there anything i can just do to make the mobile boot?..
He finally updated to ICS ..no rooting or flashing done so far...

What do you want to do with your phone? Since you've unlocked the bootloader i suppose you want a custom kernel on it... just flash that, it will have cwm included, no need to mess with that on stock kernel.

Hijack is probably not working correctly or the system partition is screwed up. Re-flash the phone with the stock ROM and then re-root it and re-install CWM recovery.
