So I flashed JB (http://theunlockr.com/2012/07/23/nearly-aosp-jelly-bean-rom/) on my phone and apparently this one doesn't have the play store or a functioning camera so I decided to flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738197 instead.
Now when I go into my bootloader and choose recovery mode, it shows me a picture of a droid with a red exclamation triangle and won't let me do anything.
What do I do? I'm going nuts

edit: I can't seem to get CWM cause I don't have rom manager installed on the phone (there is no play store) and when I try from the browser, it says it's already installed.

That's the stock recovery. If you want to flash custom ROMs, flash CWM recovery. Flash it via Fastboot.

That is the stock recovery. If you want to flash the official OTA, press vol down and power keys to get to the Recovery menu, otherwise, install CWM to flash custom TIME.

Just use mskips toolkit if you are not familiar with doing things manually. It can be found in the sticky's of the dev forums.

Do you know how to use Fastboot? If so, just download this CWM image and flash: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19583168&postcount=1

What zip? No. Download the cwm.img (I've downloaded it and attached to this post...) and put it in the same folder as Fastboot on your PC. Connect your phone to the PC and reboot it into Fastboot mode. Then enter the code I put above.
If you have no idea what "Fastboot" is (getting that impression), like I said, you need to read a bit more and learn it. THEN come back and flash your phone.

Alright, so I have fastboot on my computer and put the recovery-clock-5.5.0.2-maguro.img into the same folder.
I have my phone in fastboot mode, how exactly do I input "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.2-maguro.img" code?
When I click on fastboot, a black window peers for a split second and goes away, so it isn't really clear what to do >_<
Thanks for your help, btw.

You open up the command line, and navigate to the file path where fastboot and the img are. You then input that line of code and hit enter. It'll then flash it. You can then reboot via "fastboot reboot".

The command line stays open for a split second, unless you mean cmd.exe in which case I have no clue how to nagivate to fasboot's file path (Have never really done it, ever)

Yes, open a normal command line, and navigate to the folder that has Fastboot in it. You don't actually click fastboot.exe ever. You use it from the command line. It doesn't have a UI, its not a program in that way. Its a command line tool.

You have your logic confused. There is no such thing as bootloader mode. Come again.

thanks you're right it's fastboot mode to install a custom ROM , but when i try to do in ADB mode only resets the phone , no fastboot enter
I believed the r800a does not have fastboot enabled by default you need to pay to have it enabled

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2389107
first, try advanced utilities > modified boot.img.
(download stock or rename any suits boot.img)
if still not work, just use the 'back to stock' command

Hi,
I've really big problem and i hope that here i get sugestion...
1, I try flash new ROM to my phone. I copy ROM to "SD card" but in wrong version.
After this I into Flashtool get new Kernel and new ver. of TWRecovery. Then I go to recovery and start flashing as every time before...
2, But now I'm in bad sittuation. I can only get into recovery... When i want to go to bootloger, i can't. Every time when I go to bootloger from recovery, i'm back in recovery. Every time is phone reaction the same as I hold power up button+vol. up. And I'm only in recovery.
When I want transfer some ROM to phone, I can't. Cose when I Mount USB massstorage I see phone as "Elementary sys device". I have install ABD device drivers...
Changelog I can't get you, cose it's in "SD card"...
3, Please, Show me "the way" out of this sh*t... I use HTC HD2 few years, all time flashing. Now I use Xperia S for 3 yr. All time flashing. But now I'm in a wrong way ind can't get my phone to standby
Thank you for answers!

Boot phone into recovery, then run following command to copy the ROM to phone memory.
Code:
adb push /path/to/ROM.zip /sdcard/
Then flash the ROM via recovery!

Yes, I'm in TWRP, exactly v.2.8.0.1, from topic of your ROM. Bud now I can't connect phone via ABD drivers. I try it via apps and two ways via Commans window.
I'm only in TWRP. I can't get to fastboot, I can't install ROM now, phone reaction is the same as I hold power up+vol up button.
I need one of two ways... 1,get phone connected with PC via fastboot to flash new kernel, boot.img and at least your ROM
2,get phone connected with PC via mass storage, to get some old ROM, flash it and get to fastboot...
For example:

Ah apologies, got lost while replying.
Anyways, lets start from basic. Can You try un-installing and installing the fastboot drivers? Because I suspect that's why You are not able to enter into fastboot mode.

Just a sec, what combination do You use to go into bootloader? Power up+volume up? That is not what Yo do, You disconnect the phone from cable, and then turn off the phone. Then just press volume up, and connect the phone. No other button is needed to be pressed.

Apologies, might have missed out Your quote earlier. So You now have ROM and other stuff in the phone. What problem are You facing Now? Also I would recommend the new released version b14c with kernel from b14d of nAOSP.

simply... I get to bootloader as we wrote last. Then I flash kernel, and phone died. Now I can only charge or see a Sony logo. I can ONLY this now. no buttons helps, no different cable/slot/PC helps... I'M only in charging mod, after turn on only logo see. no TWRP, no bootloger.

So You can't even go into bootloader now? That's weird and also makes this a bit complicated! Because You need to be able to go into bootloader mode to flash a new kernel which has recovery. Hope You are pressing only volume while connecting phone to PC. Drivers are fine as You were able to flash a kernel earlier. Which Kernel did You flash first? If You are able to go into bootloader, then flash this kernel via fastboot mode.

So You were able to flash the kernel I gave? Then You should be able to boot into CWM recovery. The Kernel logo will be of a Android bot.
