Can't install Cyanogenmod - 'Cyanogen Recovery' Help please? - Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm trying to install Cyanogenmod on a Sony Xperia Z2 Wifi tablet and am following the directions on this site: http://wiki cyanogenmod.org w/Install_CM_for_castor_windy, but unfortunately I loaded the 'boot.img' and instead of taking me to ClockworkMod Recovery it has taken me to 'Cyanogen Recovery'. In this Cyanogen Recovery I just can't see a way to install Cyanogenmod according with the directions.
I'd really love some help, as for now my tablet is unusable and I need to use it!
Thanks!

The new recovery does work in general. I have the following bugs, though:
- No access to external SD card
- ADB does not work (flash a CM11 boot.img to use ADB)
- Sometimes it does not find ZIP-files on the internal SD card ==> in this case, simply reset the tablet with the small red button next to the SD card
Hope I could help. Have fun!
Edit: Also check the CM12-thread in the original development section

Thanks so much for getting back to me. Any idea where I can download a CM11 boot.img from? All the castor_windy links for CM11 are broken on the CM site.

I cannot upload a boot.img, the file is too big.
But I took mine from an Abdroid 4.4 PAC-ROM in the original development section. You can also check the Freexperia homepage, perhaps they still have some online. Basically you can take the boot.img from all CM11-based ROMs.

Sony Tablet S alternate method root path recovery [Only ICS] [For Test]

Experimentation and study
new procedures for Rooting
Sony and Sony Tablet Terminal Phone with ICS
Procedure # 1 →
a - download the file (all)
b - rename the file to update.zip 01 or 02 before inserting them in the root SDcard →
c - go into recovery mode (power + volume) and select System Update from SD CARD
d - select the pack just copied and renamed
and - recovery time from temporary select the pack 03 (does not need to be renamed)
f - if everything is ok now when you restart you'll have root
Code:
NB: two packs were included, because in theory if one does not work the other
I recommend that you first use the 01 because that's what should be "eaten" without problems.
In theory only side effects of this procedure should be the lack of flash pack.
Code:
DOWNLOAD PACK CLAIMS OF CONSCIENCE EVER TAKEN A TEST OF EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE AND POTENTIALLY HARMFUL.
WHAT DO YOU DO ONLY AND SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK!
The folder in mediafire is empty.
Yer there's nout in the folder.
attached files.
it will not work.
signature is not correct - even not the proper type - it has to be signed for whole-file.
what is the source of the files? you have created them?
what version of cwm recov is included? is it correct for S?
or some 'other-device' one?
I was getting excited then
This procedure for all devices sony and samsung. Samsung also works on the tablet now goes head to head Sony Tablet if someone tells me where to go or not. Could go. It does not install the CWM but does only the Root
Has anyone tested this yet?
anybody successed?

If not Condi we would be in all nowhere...
Before you post sth, CHECK if it works. What if it was dangerous and bricks the device???
Have you considered this?
Next time: think about the possible consequences, not post something you don't even know how/if it works, please.

Yes, the idea is what counts.
Since when has it been the standard to post un-checked un-verified and non working files here?
Dangerous is what it is. Lucky this is a sony with barely any user base, if this was posted on the galaxy forums there would be hundreds of possibly messed up phones out there...
I have a sony Tablet S but I can not test this procedure because they are not home. I'm off to work and I will have to stay for a few months so if anyone of good will could test this method and send the results would be happy. @ Condi if the compilation and wrong could you fill it in right way so as to have the root?
@ Condi.Is the guy maybe on the right track ?.If he is maybe you could help him ?
i have a sony tablet s with stock ics rom

[Q] [SOLVED] Touchscreen doesn't work

Hello everybody,
My name is Leandro, I live in Argentina, so my english is not good enough I've a Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini ST15
Today I was experimenting with mi phone but I make a terrible mistake.
Let me tell us in order what happend:
- I had ParanoidAndroid 2.53 with some bugs tippical of a beta edition
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963556
- I decided to back to ICS. I installed Cyanogen Mod 10 FPX 150
https://sites.google.com/site/projectfreexperia/download/cyanogen-mod-10
However I don't fell confortable without a sock camera
- I download and install (with all the wipes) XPERIA Ultimate HD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991371
It doesn't come with the "boot.img" so I download KernelPanic 1.25v (I put into my phone via Fastboot)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861905
HOWEVER I didn't notice when I installed the new rom, the device I'd selected wasn't mine (I make that terrible mistake)(I'd selected "LVW" or something like that)
- When I ran the new ROM, the touchscreen didn't work but all the buttons worked fine. :crying:
- I tryed to back to the Official ROM via Flashtool, but the touchscreen continued with this issue
- I reinstalled the XPERIA Ultimate HD choosing correctly but didn't work
I asked to some people, but they don't know about Sony devices.
If someone knows something to do I will apreciate too much.
Thanks in advance!

There you have it! If you know what you've done wrong the do it the right way! Re flash the Rom(and Kernel if you want) properly by choosing the right phone model this time!

obviously, I did that as I write in the begining, that's why I don't understand the problem, because I did all the wipes, put the same rom in the correct way, put another rom, the official rom, but, nothing happends, it's the same.
It's like I "change" an internal driver that the following instalations doesn't modify.
Did you format system partition before trying to reflash other roms?
Anyhow the touchscreen driver is in system/etc folder, the name is touch_nameofdevice.hex, if you push that file from a rom for your device and the hw_config.sh it should fix it

I format my phone via CWM y choose "format system", "format cache"
it's too strange for me, I think it's related with my bad choose that I write in the begining, but it must be a solution

Try this:
1. Download that
2. Open the zip and replace all files in the bin folder with files for your device (!), for example from a custom rom for xperia mini
3. After pushing files for your device in there, pack the content again (the meta-inf folder and the bin folder)
4. Copy this to sd card and flash it with cwm
5. This could work, but I can't promise anything
Hope you will get a working touch screen again!

Clockworkmod v6.0.1.5 non-touch for protou 30/12/12

I've searched very hard to find a recovery for my new phone, but there is not many options. So I managed to build one myself, fixed the fb shifting and did some modifications for convenience.
Hope it will be useful, and thanks to the CWM team.
----------------------------------------------------------------
It seems the raw emmc partition is protected by the kernel, so the update.zip which has a boot.img inside won't fully applied. You have to drag the img out and flash it via hboot mode(unlock required).
I wonder if android devices all protect their raw partitions, or just desire x does.
Anyway, here is a new build of CWM, with a tiny fix of usb lun file mismatch( not sure if it fix the usb mount issue, need someone with a otg cable to test). A patch file of CWM v6.0.1.5 is uploaded too, check to see if it helps.

Glad it works for you. It's no big deal, just a small bug fix.
In fact, I'm pretty new to android. Still adapting to this new phone, also trying to make it better.

Hello, please tell me. Ported CTR v 3 iOcean elite. For a basis took recovery with P780, tailored for your screen resolution, like all good, but there is one at the new mount memory to the computer recording speed is very very low (for example, when copying the firmware of 600 mb- while copying takes about 15 minutes), what to do ?

That could have multiple causes: antivirus software, low class sdcard, usb port old version (1.1, 1.2), bad cable, etc. It's not related to recovery.
@carliv, i have tried the recovery that you have tag for me but, it does not work... It does not boot into recovery , it just loop into a normal way of booting.... Is this already tested? Or I am the first who tried it?
Update: I guess I'm wrong, I have tried to flash it again with an updated Rasher tool and it works but it take a long time to flash it . Thanks Sir @carliv, by any chance who ported it sir?
Sir @carliv , so now that you have verified that it is working with our device you can now add our unit myphone agua rio v2 (with version 2 because theres a myphone agua rio v1 with a jellybean os)

For flashing recovery on Mediatek phones is better to use Mobileuncle from phone or SPflashtools from PC. Some people said Flashify works too, but I didn't checked.
I did the port for this recovery, because I did that for other phones too and I thought to do it for this one too. You were lucky I found infos about the phone online, because you didn't provided any.
Ok, I'll add it on working device list, since the test was successful.

It's the voldmanager number for internal sdcard, probably wrong - I told you I didn't have any info about your phone since you didn't provide something, and as I don't even seen this phone I can't know what is that number. If you change that in fstabs it will work well.

Usually the fat block number in dumchar_info is the voldmanaged number, but sometimes you need to look in the phone. There are few methods to find that through adb commands. Search here on xda and you will find that somewhere.

Ok, first, if you quote one of my posts don't use mention too (@).
Second, your phone has an emulated internal sdcard. Post here a stock boot and recovery image from kitkat rom. If external sdcard is working, make a backup and copy from it the boot and recovery images if you don't have in official ROM.

You can create a scatter file with the use of MTKdroid Tools... After creating scattter file use that to flash ur recovery. You can also flash ur recovery without using flashtool, just install rashr tool.apk or mobileuncle tool to flash it via mobile.

I am making good progress with a flashable ZIP file that can be flashed using the diagnostic factory mode. The ZIP takes a current EMUI ROM base and debloats it removing Chinese langauge apps and unnecessary Huawei branding. Useful frameworks such as Motion, Gestures, AoD, etc. are retained. Going forward I plan to develop the solution further so that you will be able to modify a customisable config file that will specify what packages you want to retain, and select a downloaded EMUI ROM for the device that will be customised as per your instruction , resulting in a ZIP file being pushed to your device and you then simply need to reboot and allow the phone to flash the update. Simple ! Therefore, each time a new stock ROM is released then this tool simply needs to be run against your customisation !
Development so far-
1. I now have a method of entering the hidden factory mode allowing a ZIP package to be flashed from internal storage , so you can simply download the ZIP to your Download folder and flash from there.
2. I have a method of saving an OTA to file.
3. I have identified the ROM GPT for the device and all partitions and sequencing; this allows me to extract all partitions contained within an Huawei ROM.
4. I am currently interrogating a sample Huawei patch ROM to discern the method of patching filesystems - which i determined is basically is an overlay of the filesystem. This makes things easy as it allows a reverse image creation from a stock partitions minus bloat removed.
5. Next step is to attempt creation of a simple patch ROM using analysis obtained from 1-4 above, and trial this out on my device. This will involve CSC and SHA256RSA creation and will need to determine a method for this. Following that I need to consolidate everything into a script. Going even further, I plan to develop a GUI app which will aid N00bs
6. Following trials I will publish the ROM and instructions with sources so that anyone in the community can examine if they so desire.
* ALL WITHOUT ROOT *
HELP NEEDED:
Anyone with a rooted device , and able to "adb root" into their device as "root" , please PM me as i could do with information that you can obtain a lot easier than I can.
Great work
Waiting for the file
?
Sorry I'm not rooted ?
Update: Rooted if need any adb feedback per OP. I haven't TWRP'd and re-ROM'd but I'm going to go back update 195 and repatch. Each time is a big hassle (just remembering steps).
I think this is great. I can probably give a hand Fri afternoon.

Sounds quite promising but, just to be clear, do you need an unlocked bootloader to do this?

Hi. I hope you are correct! Just don't see anything explicitly said about bootloader. Only says you don't need root. Would be neat if this approach could be used to rebrand phone.
Any progress?
Looks like this didn't get to far because of the 195 update?

Thank you Abdul. I watched in disbelief as i saw members post comments about me... They will not now be getting the solution.
I need a card for the phone but it doesn't use SD its a type i can't get get hold of.. Some nVcard ?? Anyway.. I'm continuing search and development. There's a hidden menu that you can use to flash a zip from the card you see... I'll PM you abdul when I'm closer..others can go for a hike

I PM'd you shortly after you started this thread offering my help since I have a rooted AL00. The memory card is Huawei proprietary card called NM Card (nano memory card - SD card the same size as nano SIM card) here's a link for them at Amazon (not an affiliate link) https://www.amazon.com/Huawei-Memory-Mirco-Compact-Flash/dp/B07KS8JBFH and they are quite expensive compared to micro sd cards.

Sorry about some folks being rude. You see it at times but I was surprised when I read it. Regardless, your finding is interesting. Where is the hidden menu you can use to flash a zip from? I wasn't planning on getting a nano sim because they are pricey. But if it is possible to do as you say I'll provably get one. Is there also an option to flash zip from file on computer? Thanks for your efforts!

Fully understand your viewpoint but please take into account that the insensitive and pointless posts made by some here do not reflect or represent the majority view of forum members.
Please let me know as well, your hard work is truly appreciated.

You can use an USB OTG and a usb stick. Works with the hidden menu trick thing. They can be found for pretty cheap price

OP and his disciples fled after being offended. I believe they followed the OnePlus rainbow hand in hand.
