Recovery Mode - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Heeeeeeeeelppp, after flashing a shi* ftf i cant enter at Recovery Mode anymore. Please, i try to push vol up and down, but no result
My phone bricked?

A stock firmware ftf is supposed to do that. You need to reflash kernel with recovery afterwards.

Fixed by Reflashing boot.img with FlashTool.

[Q] Xperia Pro flashing

So, finally I have managed to unlock my bootloader in ADB with the sony's method, I did this because I want to try out the ultima rom with kernel.
So I have never flashed a kernel, I only used wotan client and flashtool. I don't know how to start.
I have everything (latest android sdk, proper drivers, battery full, root, clockworkmod, kernel.img) only the knowledge how to do it SAFE, and the most important how do I flash it back to the original ramdisk and kernel?
PS.: I have an Xperia Pro MK16I,
Is there no guide in the rom thread?

Dude, the same Ultima ROM thread has the instructions.
It's always the same.
Flash Kernel via Fastboot> Flash ROM via CWM> Full wipe.
You'll have to get the fastboot files from somewhere to flash the kernel.
Once flashed the Kernel, to flash the ROM the most common command to bring up CWM is pressing Vol - several times.
After that, you just flash the zip from Ultima.
That's it.
Unable to enter recovery mode
I am unable to enter the recovery mode by pressing the volume - key. How can i enter the recovery mode ? i am stuck on the sony logo.
I was flashing a ROM on locked bootloader and already had clockworkmod recovery. Now i can not access it

This is just one way to fix Software update encountered a error use kies recovery

Ok so if you've ever flashed a firmware through odin or flashed a system, etc.. and got this message when you try to boot your phone. Theres a way to fix it.. Usually when this happens you can only boot into download mode and the custom recovery doesn't work. Theres a trick I use whenever I encounter it I boot to download mode and turn on odin then in odin turn off auto reboot in the settings. Next flash a custom recovery then pull the battery out after it flashes. Wait a little bit put the battery back in then press volume up, home, and power at the same time and it will boot you into recovery. Once in recovery you can flash another custom rom or stock rom or restore a backup.

can't enter twrp recovery after succesfully flash it

hello guys,
so im trying to flash new recovery
and i flash twrp recovery 2.8.6 via odin, but it stuck on bootloop and i cant enter recovery (but it didnt soft brick i guess, because i can still operate the phone, but cant enter the recovery mode!)
so i try to flash twrp 3.0.0 img file with rasher app
and it stuck again in a bootlop
any solution maybe? :'(
thanks
As soon as Odin flashes it, hold vol up+ home+ power to boot up in to twrp.

No more recovery or fastboot.

My device is an Xperia Xa1 Ultra G3223.
Long story short, I was on rooted Android 7.0 with magisk v16 or 17 don't remember and TWRP. I was unable to update my firmware using the system so I used XperiFirm to get the latest firmware from my carrier. I used flashtools to built a .ftf for branding I wrote Sony and version I put 48.1.A.2.101. I did a factory reset then flashed it.
Now I can boot into android no problem but if I try to enter recovery it just reboots into android using adb reboot recovery. And if I try to use adb reboot-bootloader it just boot loops and the only way I can get out of it is to hold vol down to enter flash mode and reflash my .ftf. I tried using flashtool to enter fastboot but it still boot loops.
Now I'm at a loss for what to do. I was going to try and flash a kernel and recovery from another thread here but I cant do that. Is there a way to flash a kernel/recovery without fastboot or something ?
Thank for any help
Ok well i finally got it working again! I tried using Emma and that updated me to 116 but i was unable to get to the bootloader. Funny enough i unplugged my phone from the usb hub i was using and plugged it directly to my pc i was able to get to the bootloader. So i re flashed 101 and then flash a kernel and a recovery and all is good now no more bootloop when i try to go into the bootloader.

GT-N7100 won't boot, flash stock ROM, or even stock recovery!

I flashed TWRP then switched to CWM to try HYPER-ROM 11, then lineage-16, but they both ended up causing a boot loop,
so I decided to go back to stock,
but when I enter recovery mode it says: "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
And when I try to flash stock recovery with Odin 3.13 it gets stuck at recovery.img,
and when I try to flash stock ROM it gets stuck at system.img!
Your time and help are highly appreciated!
you need to enter download mode...not recovery mode
then use odin to flash stock rom
