Hello.
I was in a custom rom and it was 4.04 ICM (I don't remember which one) and I already had an unlocked bootloader (which I couldn't remember) and I tried to re-unlock it
Now on my phone the Sony Ericsson logo re-appeared and it won't boot (it was Sony with my custom rom)
I used this method for unlocking bootloader

I have this CWM

Now what should I do?
Should I flash stock firmware?
Should I flash another custom?

You relocked bootloader, right?
Or did you unlock it again?!
Anyways, if you did a relock, you must flash a stock ftf and/or a ROM for a locked bootloader.
Because, your custom kernel based ROM won't run on a locked bootloader.

Hello
I recently bought a new device (lollipop version) and I've rooted it successfully so I decided to flash a custom recovery because I want to back up my OS before I start flashing xposed framework.
So I searched the net for a custom recovery for my device (Infinix hot 3 x554) and I found one, then I flashed the custom recovery using mobileuncle root and I reboot into recovery and nothing changed my stock recovery was still there, then after booting my device I flashed the custom recovery again using flashify and I reboot into recovery my phone just booted normally instead if taking me to recovery mode, now my stock recovery isn't there anymore, please I need assistant on how to fix this.
My device: Infinix Hot 3 x554
Version: 5.1
Kernel Version: 3.10.72+
Build Number: x554-W90918-A2-L-20160607
I used kingroot to root the device.
Thank you
It seems your recovery partition restores itself or there are specific scripts in your boot.img which restores stock recovery when detects modified recovery. You must install it via fastboot.
Obtain fastboot and run this command (You can have it with Android SDK or you can find it in Google too.).
Code:
fastboot flash recovery *filename*.img
But you have to be sure you have proper drivers for your device.
Okay, but I did some little research about how to flash recovery and I saw something about unlocking bootloader, so could it be because I haven't unlocked my bootloader that's why it didn't work?

Yes. You need to unlock bootloader before flashing custom recovery. Locked bootloader prevents modify stock partition.

So after I unlock the bootloader, should I use flashify to flash the custom recovery or I should just use PC to flash it

Okay thanks for your time.
I flashed MIUI global stable rom on my rn4 snapdragon using twrp and bootloader was relocked. it is normal? It is safe to flash any rom with locked bl using twrp? can i unlock bl with mi unlock without xiaomi permission if unlocked officially first time?
system twrp and fastboot works normally and now i have custom rom restored from nandroid backup
Are you sure your bootloader got relocked?? Please check it through fastboot oem device-info command.

what do you mean about bootloader getting re locked? global builds only remove the custom recovery and dont lock the bootloader i guess.
is it possible to boot in stock recovery with locked bootloader??
i have unlock for trying some custom rom... but now i have decided locked the bootloader while flashing with miflash tool and i can boot into stock recovery. Is it normal?
