I have xperia mini ST15i rooted with stock kernel and ROM ICS. Now I want to use some custom ROM like CM10 JB for it but there is no way to install the clockworkmode recovery on it I tried a tutorial which let me install the tool on my device ad I installed the ROM manger but it is reporting that CWM is not compatible with my device. When I press the Backup current ROM it just reboot and nothing happens, while in article they recommend the CWM to use a custom ROM.
I tried to install the CWM from http://mobilecon.info/install-sony-xperia-clockworkmod-for-ics-and-gingerbread.html
It is installing it but no way to use it.
I'm looking on this article to install the JB on my device.
http://www.teamandroid.com/2012/09/21/update-xperia-mini-st15i-st15a-android-411-jelly-bean-cm10-custom-firmware/
Now I want to know how can I use CWM to use make a recovery of stock ROM and use custom ROM, also how can I go back to stock ROM if custom ROM doesn't work.

Try downloading xparts/xperia parts from playstore and install it. Hope your device is rooted when you try it
Btw for cyanogenmod you have to unlock the bootloader which voids warranty. If you want to unlock look in my signature there's a guide!

I have already tried xparts but it also say that its not compatible with my device while I have rooted my phone already.
Check the command prompt log. is it saying successful installation?if then pressing the correct key after sony logo appears on start-up will put it on the CWM

First of all,download the stock firmware from here: http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?start=0&tstart=0 (For security,if anytime,anything goes wrong..you can revert back to your stock)
Flashtool for flashing custom rom and kernel: http://androxyde.github.com/index.html?1350887833000
You can flash a custom kernel with CWM. I am using kernel Panic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861905

You have to unlock bootloader for flashing custom kernel.I think for flshing JB,sooner or later,you have to flash custom kernel anyway.Decide about unlocking bootloader.Searc google for "Official bootloader unlocking method"
Note: Installed CWM sometimes doesn't work if your phone gets stuck at sony logo after flashing custom roms.But custom kernel's CWM stays allways active.So,it is better.Just take a backup before flashing custom rom

But why should he unlock bootloader if he only wants to install cwm?
@OP: Please make some screenshots of the installation progress in cmd and in the app. This error message could maybe help us :good:
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773227 it should work with locked bl too
then you need to reboot your phone and try to press volume down for multiple times when kernel logo (sony) appears
hi
i have rooted my samsung s2 i9100 using one click root method which jus roots ur phone nd dosent install CWM recover i searched for a quiet sometime nd i found this link
HTML:
http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-rooted-galaxy-s2-i9100/
is this rite way for android version 2.3.3 r is ter any way to jus install CWM recovery on my s2
pls help me guys m excited abt tryin new ROMS
Thx:good:
try flashin cwm recovery zip
Yes
I did also install ClockworkMod Recovery from this site, and the asnwer is yes, if you have rooted your phone with one click mode (i did root my S2 from there also, what a coincidence then you can install ClockworkMod Recovery without any problems, just follow the instructions shown.
Then you should install RomManager from playmarket, it will help you to use ClockworkMod Recovery more smoothly
I have trued to read and search the forums, but I haven't been able to figure a definitive answer to this...
When I flash CWM on my S2 using Odin, does it root the phone ?
I usually Root (with framaroot), Flash CWM, Flash CM 11 nightly, Re-root using framaroot.
But Can I just do : Flash CWM and Flash the CM 11 nightly ? does it auto root ?
What do you mean, 'usually'? Why is it that you can't just flash each new build of Cm11 from the previous one? Why do you need to re-root in the first place?
When I rooted my phone, rather than using a one-click such as framaroot, I flashed a kernel (siyah in my case) using Odin. That gave me CWM and root. That cuts out the step you're trying to to eliminate, if I've understood your question correctly?
I'm not sure in answer to your direct question, try it and see. Hopefully the alternative method I just gave you makes it a little quicker though
Edit : you could, if flashing CWM only doesn't give you root, just flash SuperSU from there and then continue.

Well mate your question is tricky to understand :cyclops:
1. NO installing CWM wont root your device requires another process (such a framaroot)
2. Aftrer installing CM 11 you dont have to re-root the mobile because CM comes prerooted with superuser !!
3. if you had already managed to install CM 11 think that you have already rooted your mobile
just for typing the 3 points my head spins in short no need for rooting after cm 11 ....and NO cwm wont root your device

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
Why do I have to install CWM if I'm already rooted ? Can't I just framaroot then install CM 11 ?
Can I do a CWM, Cyanogen install without rooting ? Since CM already comes rooted. So jut CWM using odin, then CM install ROM. ?
Other question, Let's say I root, flash CWM, flash a ROM (any rom), can I be unrooted after that and have to reroot again ? Or do ALL roms come pre rooted ?

CyanogenMod comes rooted. Also, the default recovery on CyanogenMod is CWM as well, so you can boot into recovery with volume up + home + power and flash a new build from there. You don't even need to use framaroot or flash CWM using Odin...
And yes, most (almost all) custom ROMs should come rooted unless you're flashing stock Samsung ROM through Odin. Besides, if you're flashing something in recovery, I don't think you need to be rooted.

Just to make sure that you understand everything i'm segregating your questions
1.Why do i install CWM when i'm already rooted?
Rooting is a process which just gives your overall control to your device, but just rooting wont make you eligible to flash any ROMS. Now when your install CWM (Clock Work Mod) its a unique type of recovery which enables your to flash Custom Roms. Your ordinary stock rom (your samsung firmware) also does have a recovery (stock recovery) which cannot penetrate into system files. So CWM is a must to flash roms !
Can i do a CWM and flash Cyanogenmod?
Absolutely NO!! Just because CM comes prerooted doesn't mean that you can flash CM without rooting.. CWM requires root to flash and change system files. For instance your are in Stock Samsung Firmware not rooted you just install CWM flash Cyanogenmod and you'll end up in a bootloop or softbrick. Since your system didnt allow files inside coz no ROOT!!..In the other hand if your already running Cyanogenmod (any version) you dont have to root nor flash CWM because they come prerooted and preinstalled with CWM.so you can flash on the go
Let's say I root, flash CWM, flash a ROM (any rom), can I be unrooted after that and have to reroot again ? Or do ALL roms come pre rooted ?
Well cyanogenmod has an inbuilt function to disable root and most of the Roms comes with it now it can be found in settings >developer options> and root access...but not all roms im assuming. on the other hand yes some roms never come prerooted such as (omni rom 4.4.2) where you have to flash superuser to get root. But as i said incase of all prerooted roms there is an option to disable root
hope this helps you understand about rooting and cwm :good:
Thank you both for your answers, I understand much more now.
BUT
Last two answers are in conflict. They say the opposite.
which one to choose ?

Sometimes after installing a rom i loose root flashing super su from recovery always fixed this problem
you should get recovery on you phone via odin then backup your stock rom then install super su zip from recovery
If you faced any problems then restore.
If you are asking if anybody tried i guess most s3 i9300 users rooted years ago on this site with old method.
You might have to be the 1st one or wait until somebody else does.
So,I bought a new phone,and I rooted it with Kingo Root,and now it's booting continuosly.
I booted it in recovery and did a factory reset,but it didn't help.
Phone model : UMi SUPER.
Android 6.
Anyone knows what do to? :/
Kingo root has sent ur phone into bootloop so it wont even boot as system is corrupted noow u need to install custom recivery and flash any other ROM made for ur device.
How do I install custom recovery without booting the phone? :/
