If you have TA backup, you can relock bootloader and make restore from sony comanion on pc. But if you didn't backup TA, then i don't know what to do(
i just repair over PC comparion and twrp gone and all back to stock ( idk if someone in service experts can find that i make custom roms before) but im notice that my recovery dont work, at least when i push vol down and vol up + power
i cant find stock recovery on google im searching for 2 hours
Because any xperias no hasn't stock recovery, this no exist in Sony phones, u only waste time for searching
aham so i cant retrive to full stock all including recovery.... blah, i will send to service and pray that will pass

done but still no recovery, when i set vol + power or (vol+,vol- and power) phone just vibrate every 5 sec.... and thats repeating all the time... screen is off too... but normal power up and flash mode work ok....
Ojoj u don't understand, Sony phones don't have stock recovery at all, only we can install custom recovery on rooted phone or when we have unlocked bootloader, can we flash custom kernels with implemented recovery, but no one make custom kernel jet, only custom kernels are inside in custom roms like cm 12,cm 13
Aham. Sorry... I was found on net "how to enter in recovery mod" that is why i was think that they have recovery

yes all data is lost,there is now way to get back after reflashing new software.
yeah.. already do that -.-'
What? CWM keeps data in SDcard, its not lost at all. But if you use SEUS, it will probably upgrade do .62 firmware, wich can't be rooted yet. You still have lots of options (flash back to .58 using whatever you like, wotan, flashtool) or unlock bootloader and flash a kernel with CWM builtin.

flash kernel with in-built CWM and restore, if it didn't work then flash ROM again, go to CWM -> backup and restore -> advanced restore -> choose backup file -> restore data. thats it, your apps will be back.

maybe. but before you unlock bootloader, flash stock kernel and rom via flashtool. you don't need unlocked bootloader to flash stock kernel. then root phone. install CWM and restore data. all apps will be back.

allready do this yesterday, and my phone is back in action btw thx for reply !
I have a rooted SE wt19i with CWM recovery installed and yesterday I wiped all the data, cache and system files to install Minimul Triumph ROM.
When I rebooted my phone it was stucked at the First Sony Ericsson screen and didnt boot into recovery. I have a Backup On My SD.
Please Help
have you tried flashing back to the original firmware using flashtool?
Yes i DId try but it doesnt even go to flash mode
Edit:I finally managed to go to flash mode. I flashed the firmware succesfully thanks kevin
First, I cannot find that kind of ROM for WT19i, could be wrong ROM to install. You can only install ROMs, that are built for your phone.
Second, you must have custom kernel to boot into custom ROM. Stock kernel only works with stock ROM. First install custom kernel(there's plenty of them in Development section, like X Kernel, Rage Kernel, bbooff's kernel etc) and then via CWM install custom ROM(install from sdcard).
Most custom kernels include CWM.
Please help me

If it connects in flashmode just use pcseus to repair the phone or use flashtools to flash stock fw back on it

I installed CWM for testing a ROM from XDA.
Now I can't connect my device to the PC and it looks like I can't get in flashmode.
PC Companion isn't recognizing my phone.
I tried several cables and charging works - it even prepares the internal storage (notification bar) but I don't see my Xperia P in Explorer and in PC Companion.
It's strange, that the issues came since I installed CWM.
If I uninstalled it, would I get into flashmode or see my device in Explorer? I don't really like the ROM I flashed, I always get force close in several apps.
Also, when I wanted to flash with CWM I made a "X" for backing up my data. Can I restore my system like it was before flash? (While flashing, there were some messages like "backing up" or sth)
And last question: When I flashed CWM I got a message about ROOT, I had to chosse if I want it or not. I choosed yes, but it said "this cannot be undone". I googled and noone posted this ROOT question before. Is this normal?
102 views and noone knows how to do that?
U cant unflash a CWM unless u go back to your stock firmware as CWM comes with different kernels. And the reason why PC and SEUS wont recognize your phone is because you have unlocked it and rooted it with custom kernel. I assume you are using GB coz i faced the internal storage problem with GB stock and the mtp process which is actually stupid of sony. Anywayz, U need to flash the stock firmware again to make those work again plus if you dont want the CWM too. But if you just want to keep your root but no CWM then u got to reflash your stock firmware, go to fastboot mode, flash a stock kernel (GB and ICS have different kernels which u can find over xda), then fastboot your stock kernel again. This procedure will let you keep your root but wont use custom kernels a.k.a CWM. If you are into ICS then u can use the custom kernels coz it wont do any damages or hiccups while u try to connect your phone to PC.

I personally hate PCC. You can always find the latest firmware within hours of its first release, so its pretty easy to get and flash it back using flashtool easily. By the way, do check the links i provided later on my previous comments. Might help you

Hello XDA buddies,
I need your help. I am having Xperia U on ginger bread(.188) which i wanted to upgrade on official ICS and afterward will try some custom roms. Before doing any updating i want to backup my stock rom in case any **** will happen i will be safe sided.I made searches about this and come to know that i have to unlock my bootloader and install custom recovery to backup my stock rom.
So here i am struggling:
1.I have unlock bootloader via sony official method but when iam trying to enter recovery mode by pressing volume key down(also tried volume key up) while my phone is restarting and sony logo appears nothing unusual happens and my phone starts normally.
2. To install CWM recovery i have to flash my SXU with some kernel(i really donn't know about this) and for flashing the kernel my phone must be on ICS. As i mentioned above before updating to ics i wanna backup my stock rom.
PlZ help me out of this.
Thanks in advance

Hey all!
With 4.3 coming any minute now, IM looking to put a custom recovery on my SGP311 so that If i miss ROOT or it takes too long or I just dont like it all up i can have a nandroid to go back to!
Looking around a bit do i need to have a custom rom/kernel for a custom recovery ?
Im new to how Sony does all this, coming from samsung where theres a dedicated recovery partition..
Any help would be appreciated!
Currently on latest WiFi only 4.2.2 update, Rooted with some chinese rooting tool, but using SuperSU
Edit: OK, I found and tried the dual recovery, (dont know why I didnt see it before)
And now my device is bootlooping at the Sony screen :c
Is there a way with Sony I can pull my photos from fastboot or something ?
