im installing cwm via fastboot with command
fastboot flash boot boot.img
but after doing this free xperia comes up and then the sony ericsson screen just hangs and fails to load.
fastboot -i 0xfce
what does -i 0xfce do?
why you didnt instal on easy way...
there is se tweaker, connect your phone to PC normal, click CWM for arc from menu, click instal... voila..
now..just flash .42 or newer firmware on phone with flashtool or TRY (might not work) to update via SEUS or PC companion.

Hey guys,I was trying to install cwm on my xperia m(c1904) i unlocked the bootloader and and the phone rebooted and the device started successfully,then I tried to install cwm by this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2480556 on the 7th setp it said Execute:
Code:
fastboot flash boot combined-xperia-m-boot.img
I tried that by DOS but it failed
I opened flashtools and opened fastboot mode and selected "select system to flash" and gave the location of that cwm img file,it got stuck at 0% so I unplugged and rebooted my phone and now it's only showing the SONY logo,I can't boot into recovery and when I connect my phone to flash mode the green LED turns on for only 1 second,flashtool does recognizes the phone but when I try to flash the stock firmware it starts flashing it but nothing happens and it shows 0%
I even tried PC companion for recovery but says"modified system detected,cannot repair"
the phone is able to boot into fastboot mode with the blue LED on
ok i unricked it ,reinstalled latest flash tool and flashed stock firmware,now can some1 explain me how do i flash cwm ?
What OS that your use?
In Windows 8 you need to disable driver enforcement before you can install flashtool driver properly

you can use kernel flasher for that. or if you have fastboot then
1. enable USB debugging and connect phone to pc.
2. execute the following commands
"adb reboot-bootloader"
"fastboot flash boot <recovery img name>
"fastboot reboot"
this solved the problem,thanks :good:

Hey there,
Looks like u r just a step away from CM11 and i think i can help u with that, just follow the steps:
Plz check again and again before attempting this, this will work for sure but still
Download Androxyde XPERIA Flashtool
Install the software , then go to C:\\flashtool\flashtool drivers and install drivers for your phone
make sure u install fastboot and flashmode drivers
then, connect ur phone in flashmode (holding volume down key) and wait for flashtool to detect ur device, later click on the icon which says "BLU". ur bootloader will unlock
then connect your phone in fastboot mode(holding volume down key)
Copy the CM11.zip and gapps.zip onto ur sdcard.
extract the boot.img from the CM11 zip file and click on the Flashing button and select fastboot mode and click on kernel to flash , then select boot.img
unplug ur phone, boot into recovery (holding volume up )
Wipe data/cache and dalvik cache
go to mounts, click format system
then go to install from sdcard and select Cm11.zip, later flash Gapps.zip
Reboot , enjoy
the Fastboot and Flashmode keys vary from device to device, i use Sony Xperia M Dual C2004 and the above mentioned keys were for that phone.
plz tell me if this helped or not:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::good::good:
hi,
i tried it but same problem, when i flash kernel boot.img from cm11.zip (now no more errors - maybe is it im trying at moment on win7 with new drivers), phone wont turn, led always light on orange. I worried that maybe is cuz of root, so i did ftf new 4.3. So i tried boot "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696259" no problem i went for first time to recovery mode on my xperia m. SU showed in apps. bootloader unlocked, debugg on.
but i dont understand one thing when phone is ON i check drivers in flashtool, i see device and adb drivers in flashtool, but when phone is off it say no adb drivers and debugg off??? but flashing kernel for root worked fine
Thanks
when i try to flash cm11.zip from root kernel in recovery it says Aborted, so why boot kernel from root works and from cm11 no?
Hi, I just installed the latest Paranoid Android ROM into my Xperia S.. During the unlock of the boot loader the device was recognized by my PC in fastboot mode, so I had no problem unlocking it. Not even flashing the recovery (TWRP) and the boot.img file gave me any problem..
Now if I try in any way to boot into recovery, my phone gets into fastboot mode instead of recovery mode. Also, my PC can't recognize the device anymore.. If I connect the phone in fastboot mode into the PC, the PC says that there are no driver installed.
If anyone could help me, it would be really appreciated..

Then re install the drivers. Then follow the procedure here to flash a recovery.
I was trying to unlock the bootloader of my Xperia M dual. I used the official method everything was fine until the device went into bootloop. So i tried to install custom cyanogen recovery so that i would install cyanogen 12.1 as i did'nt have the net to download 700 mb for stock firmware.But idiot me ,instead of typing
Code:
fastboot flash recovery xxxx.img
i typed
Code:
fastboot flash boot xxxx.img
now i can only go to fastboot mode and nothing else.i tried to extract the real boot.img from the ROM but i encountered an error.My phone is blank and does not show anything and goes to fastboot and flashmode only please help!!!!!
in flashmode by using the flashtool flash the ftf file for your device thats it!!
i too have flashed many a time recovery in boot sector but in my case the recovery opens directly make sure the recovery you flashed was for your device i suggest use twrp lastest version..
Hi everyone !
I have a Xperia P (LT22i) with the stock ROM from T-Mobile.
Recently I got a virus and the phone is unusable.
I wanted to restore the stock ROM with the Sony Flash Tool because factory reseting did not work.
But i needed to unlock my bootloader through fastboot first.
So I tried the button combination to boot into fastboot mode but it did not work.
Then I tried boot into it with using ADB by the "adb reboot fastboot" command,
it did not boot into the fastboot, I even tried the "adb reboot recovery" command.
But in both cases it rebooted into system.
So I am worried if the T-Mobile version of this phone even has fastboot!
If you have any suggestions please reply !
