Using TWRP to flash files - Sony Xperia X Questions & Answers

The bootloader of the phone is unlocked and it has the TWRP recovery 3.0.2 flashed via:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Click to collapse
But when booting the recovery it asks for a password in order to decrypt data partition. Tried leaving blank and the PIN set to boot Android but none of them is working.
Is there any password by default?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I am using the X Compact. Would be that version of the TWRP compatible with it by any way?

No but look on the x compact forum. I think you can find the right twrp there

Alright, it seems the latest TWRP version compatible with X Compact is the 3.0.2 provided by the Advanced Stock kernel from AndroPlus (https://forum.xda-developers.com/x-compact/development/advanced-stock-kernel-twrp-xperia-x-t3464685). I guess we will have to wait then...

[Q] Xperia Mini Sk15i Perplexing problem flashing ROM

So I have an Xperia Mini, the phone is rooted, bootloader is unlocked and CWM recovery is installed.
I booted into recovery and followed the steps outlined to flash this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705255
I can't think what I've done wrong but the phone is now frozen on the 'Sony Ericisson' screen.
I know how to get it back to stock but anyone any ideas what I'm doing wrong in the flash process? I've tried twice now, with same result.
Thanks in advance.
Did you install the correct kernel for your phone?

Did you flash the recommended kernel?

Ok so I didn't. That's necessary? It won't work on stock kernel?
Will it work if I flash the kernel after the firmware?

Yes you have to flash the correct kernel. It's necessary.
If you already flashed the Rom via cwm, than only flash the kernel for your phone and it should boot. If not, then install the rom again.
Good luck.

Dude, did you read carefully where it says not to install on a mini or active with locked bootloaders yet because it needs to be tested? And your phone is an St15i not Sk15i
Edit: I see it's unlocked lol, my bad, but you need to install the correct kernel for that to work

Excellent I can't wait ... do you have posiibilty to edit menus in recovery , it could be handy to have all wipes in one place for example .

It's possible, but we usually need only factory reset for installing roms (wipes data, cache and dalvik-cache).

I don't know anything about this feature in any recovery avilable, but you can create backup and create zip using android kitchen.

Not exactly many new roms has also advice to format system like SlimBean or newest mateo1111 roms, it is easier to have for eg. all wipe options in one menu, maybe it is possible to make option for fullwipe = wipe dalvik +data+format system?

Something like Team Win Recovery Project for example. That would be very useful.

Mateo1111 cm wipes system during installing. Almost all roms based on cm source with unmodified updater-script wipe system during installing rom.
It's not possible to do CWM-touch now. TWRP is maybe possible for now. CWM-touch will not work with my fixes.
Twrp would be grt...
built a twrpversion with ur fixes...
