Hi all,
I recently installed the honami moonloader v5.5 for my Xperia P after following all the necessary steps to root the phone and flashing CWM. Recently came across another ROM called xperia_fidelity_JB and thought of giving it a try as well. Made a nandroid backup before trying the fidelity ROM. After successful installation, things seemed to be working fine, but the contacts keep crashing always. So I decided to restore back to the honami moonloader. But now I am not able to reboot to recovery though the option is visible in the shut down menu. I have tried the manual method too but to no avail.
Can anyone pls tell me what have i done wrong and how can i correct it? Appreciate all the help...
Cheers...

Hello guys. My problem is that I tried to install cyanogen mod 7.1 on my xperia ray. I did everything as i was said in forum. Finally i got it on, but is is bootlooping and none of the solutions work. I am really stuck. I tried to download st18 as a .tft file and install though flashtool, but i cannot do it because my phone is not running in flashmode. I am not sure if this is even possible. Anyway, if anyone could be bothered to give any advice on how to return to the st18 and forget about this idea, i would be really thankful!
download cyanogenmod 7.0.1 and install it , it will work
i am wondering why flashmod is not working
in future whenever you install custom rom , make a complete backup of stock rom
i have a backup of my stock rom on sd card , i can revert back to stock any time .
Noobie here. But I have been ultra careful in checking and rechecking all the methods for preparing my Xperia Mini and flashing custom roms (I've read many threads on XDA and watched loads of YouTube videos).
Here's my problem. Using CWM, I flashed the correct MIUI rom for my st15 mini. I then went immediately to flash the correct kernel for this.
In CWM the only option is to flash a '.zip' file... but as the kernel I placed onto the SD card is a '.img' file... CWM didn't not find it in the list of files available to flash.
After seaching everywhere to try to find out what I'd done wrong, I had no choice but to tell CWM to exit and close down the phone.
Now, the phone starts itself and gets stuck on the SE boot screen. And it's impossible to get back into CWM. Sony's program for restoring the system recognizes the phone but instructs me to launch it before it will restore (which, of course, I can't do). Flashtools also recognizes it but doesn't seem to want let me flash anything to it.
Clearly the problem is the phone cannot now find a kernel to boot with.
ANY help on fixing the problem - and letting me know where I went wrong in flashing - would be very much appreciated.
I installed the Beanstalk version 4.4.225-20140125-nypon on my xperia P today through ROM Manager. I had the GApps package on the internal storage of the phone as well prior to installation. However, after the ROM was installed, I attempted to install GApps through ROM Manager as well but it didn't work. The phone's just refusing to go into the recovery menu no matter what I do. Even restoring the backups through RM aren't working since the phone is just going through the Sony logo straight to the Beanstalk welcome screen and then on to the home.
I'm totally lost as to what to do now and how to enter the recovery mode so I can either restore backups or install GApps. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
Hello together,
i'm experimenting with my Z2 (CM12.1, Sony Firmware, whatever) and everytime i get this "CM Recovery" which has
really little functions. And everytime I try flashing XZDualRecovery with the installer and manually with fastboot, but
when it reboots, i get this CM Recovery again. The only solution i found yet is flashing an old Sony Firmware with
Flashtool and rooting it again but thats really complicated.
Does someone know how to solve this? I also searched on the Internet, but most times i get CWM Recovery, which
is the same for Google
Thank you for your help in Advance!
EDIT: An example for what i mean: I tried CM12.1 today but i forgot to make a Whatsapp Backup, so I wanted to
restore my old Firmware again, but theres no such feature in CM Recovery.
Why can't this phone have some sort of permanent recovery for all ROMS, like Desire HD had it in it's time???
So a little insight, I've lost my whole day due to updating/changing ROM on my Xperia Z2.
The problem started after i decided to finally unlock a BL to see what does my phone actually get with that.
After it i tried updating to a ROM from original development section, the recovery i had was a TWRP 3.0.2-0,
with when i connected a phone to my PC it was recognized as Z3 and due to that i couldn't install any other ROM
because it wasnt a "sirius" device.
Well then I installed Mx ROM which came with it's recovery, i used that recovery to install Paranoid from original
section. It wasn't long after that ROM started sort of glitching and i wanted to go back to my previous ROM which
was working and to see if i lost anything with removed DRM keys. I couldn't enter recovery like it wasn't even there,
I've tried flashing recovery from adb, fastboot, which resulted with a boot loop.
All of this was fixed after i flashed a fresh .ftf and rooted it from the beginning and installed everything back. The phone
works OK now i can't notice what's gone with removed DRM keys, everything seems to be working as it was before.
After a long read, my point is.....what is unlocking a BL for??? Why can't Z2 have a sort of permanent recovery like DHD???
Why do we (me) lose a recovery with every new ROM flash, i'm actually afraid installing CM what might result in same
problem as above???
And i read it somewhere that installing a recovery to TA? partition could make it permanent? i'm not sure where I've seen that...
