I am in a bit of a pickle. I'm one of the unfortunate souls who's brand new Evo doesn't take kindly to flashing. I am rooted and running sprintlovers Rom, but would like to try some overclock goodness, not to mention having the framerate unlocked. My thought is that, though I can't flash anything from recovery (when you try to flash anything, it just bootloops right back into recovery when you restart), I may be able to flash an OC'd kernel through fastboot. I looked into how to do this myself, but it still seems a bit over my head. Is there a kind soul out there who would make me a boot.img out of either or both of these???

you can't flash anything from recovery?
Put it on your PC, open up the .zip and you may find a little surprise in there...

Nope. I have S-off, I am running sprintlovers and have root, but when I boot to recovery, flash something, and then reboot.....all I get are bootloops. Yesterday, I opened up logcat just before booting. Here us the one and only log entry:
Code:
C:\A>adb logcat
- waiting for device -
link_image[1995]: failed to link /system/bin/sh
CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE

Lol, I may be new to the evo, but I'm not a total n00b. That was the first thing I checked. There is no flashable boot.img file in the kernel folder. Now, maybe one of the files in that folder just needs to be renamed, I'll admit my ignorance right upfront. I did do research before I made this thread, but when they started talking hex editing (of which I've only done a little) and running prl scripts, I knew I was getting over my head.
EDIT: BTW, I have tried both clockwork and Amon-Ra recoveries. Both have the same basic logcat readout, just a slight variation in syntax.

if its the new evo u cant flash a kernel or any rom that isnt based on the latest OTA's. Its because they have a few different drivers and the kernels dont support them yet so thats why u cant flash anything really. so just sit tight with a rom like sprint lovers or Vaelpak and you should be good for now
Use the Android kitchen in the chef's forums. It will inject that kernel into whatever boot.img you want real fast
May be a dumb reply but did you wipe and clear cache?
You can strip the zimage file out of the .zip and push it to the phone using adb...
I know their is many threads already about this, but i cant seem to get the answer i need :/
when i boot my phone up it goes to the clockworkmod recovery menu, i can fully navigate it and all, but when i try to reboot the system or anything, it just goes straight back to the clockwork recovery menu :|
i am new to all this rooting and flashing roms stuff, so sorry if i sound dumb.
if their is a thread already answering my question then could you please link me..?
so what im really asking is how do i get back into my phone without it booting straight into clockworkmod recovery?..
I take you've flashed either Doomlords kernel or CM7 on your phone.
If it's the first you could flash the stock kernel. That would be done by simply extract kernel.sin from a ftf file, matching your build/FW number, with winrar/7z. Then boot and flash Doomlods kernel again or just start out with flashing Doomlords kernel once more.
If it's the latter you need to flash a stock rom. Dunno if there's some special steps to go from CM7 to stock, so check out the CM7 thread if this is the case. Or reinstall CM7 again to see if that helps. Flashing the CM7 kernel (only) probably could do it.
Odd that you're stuck in a CWM bootloop kind of thing, could be something with your volume rocker?
Regards Dousan...
thankyou for your reply dousan, much appreciated,
but i manage to figure out what i did wrong, turns out i accidentaly flashed the boot with the clockwork recovery boot instead of simply booting it, but i managed to fix it by flashing the cm7 boot as my boot, and now it works.
i am though looking to install cm7 and dont have a clue what im doing, could you please link me to an explanation thread or explain how i would do so? would be much appreciated. thanks man.
lol classic. You're not the first one that has falshed it instead of booting it
Anyway here's a link on how to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1128216
The how to is in post three and four. One is for GSM devices and the other is for CDMA devices.
Regards Dousan...
yeah seems like an easy mistake to make haha,
crap now that ive done it and its rebooted, all of the root applications are gone and most applications are crashing? i re-flashed the root mod and all but everything is still stuffing up. know how i could fix this because i cannot plug it into usb in order to put on cm7.. :/
I take you did it with a ftf file through flashtool? Was it the same FW build as you where on already? Did you tick wipe data before flashing?
If you're using flashtool i would do a reflash and tick 'wipe data' and then boot and take it from there with CM7. That should fix the fc'ing and when using flashtool the root will get wiped along with the rest of the phone.
Regards Dousan...
i wasn't using flashtool i was using fastboot, but ill take a look at flash tool and see if i can figure out whats going on, i want to get my phone back to stock without root, so then i know how to take it from there? how exactly would i do that with flash tool?
thanks for the help btw man im completely lost with this stuff haha

I got my Xperia Play R800x yesterday. Since then I have rooted, unlocked the bootloader, and installed crash team racing. I have been reading through the forms before and after getting my phone. But Im still confused on the whole flashing process. From what I could gather if I want to flash either a kernel or rom I must use fastboot. Which is a program you run on your computer while the phone is in fastboot mode (black screen, blue led). My problems are I have yet to find a DETAILED process on how to do this. I also am wondering if I were to install clockwork recovery if I could just flash roms and kernels through it. I know everyone on the form says they you cant but they all have locked bootloaders. The final thing Im confused about is flashtool. What is it used for? In one form is sounded like someone used it to unbrick there phone but Im still unsure. Any help that can straiten this up for me would be GREATLY appreciated.
Edit: If this helps you help me I have recently come from a droid X and HTC Eris. Both devices I know my way around them.
Oh and thanks for the people who posted in my last thread. THIS PHONE IS SICK!!!!!!!!
Dont have any answers for you since most of them are in the forum ; but a thing to point out is that since you have a r800x the amount of roms you can flash are limited.

Could I at least get some links. I have been digging around for a weak and still haven't found anything. Like I said I have an idea about everything I just need some help clearing it all up.
Ok, I finally found a form that explains flashtool and how to use it. But I still would like to know about the clockwork recovery.

You can flash roms through clockwork mod. But you can not flash kernels, the reason for this is both the kernel and recovery are held on the same partition /boot/, obviously flashing a kernel overwrites /boot/ partition so CWM cannot write to the same partition is it running from.
You can flash nandroid backups from CWM recovery
Your selection is limited tho because this phone has limited people working on it lol.
Yeah I know the CDMA rom department hasnt developed yet, but it will.
But you two are saying two different things. Can I only flash nand backups with the clockwork recovery or can I flash a rom. Thanks for clearing up the kernel part though.

Nice!!
Now when you say you were the first to make a rom that was flashable in clockwork recovery. Does this mean that the rom has to be specially made to be flashed with the clockwork recovery or is this just because everyone uses flashtool to flash roms?

To be flashed from recovery, a rom has to be in a certain format, and contain an update script and binarys that tell recovery when to mount and unmount partitions, what partitions and directories to copy the files to and what permissions need to be given to certain files/folders

Ok, so basically i have just gone ahead and followed these steps for flashing cyanogenmod:
wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_Arc:_Full_Update_Guide
When i got up to step 7, i wasn't able to load clockwork mod, and because i am a noob and new to this, i actually didn't know that i had to install it beforehand. So now, i've got a phone which wont turn on properly (stuck with a lit up black screen) and will only connect into fastboot
Please, somebody help me!!!! I am really scared that i may have bricked my phone, if i can do anything to get it running again, i would be so happy. Please help
did you flash the CM kernel? and CM recovery comes with the kernel..you dont need to install it separately..

Alright first thing first. Which version of CM are you trying to flash? And where you downloaded it from?
---------- Post added at 04:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 AM ----------
Ok we will come to flashing ROMs later lets first get you to boot your phone so that you can use it and not be scared. Whatever you have messed up, flashing the phone with flashtool and official FTF would make it normal. I hope you know how to do it. Google around and you can find flashtool. Get it installed to you PC then go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330314 and download the ftf file and flash it using flashtool. Then your phone will be back up and running. Once its done. Come back here and tell me. Ill help you with flashing ROMs.
@ arpith.fbi
Yes i flashed a boot.img that came with the CM9 zip file, but that is all.
@ gnirujan
I am flashing CM9, and i got it from the downlaods section of the CM website.
I have also downlaoded flashtool but im not sure how to flash the FTF file. By the way, that file is for LT18i, and i have a LT18a. Would it matter?
Thanks for the replies
also gnirujan,
I checked that FTF file, and its 370mb. Is it the full firmware? If it is, i will flash it but if there is a way to continue with the cyanogen flashing, i would love to avoid downloading that ftf.
P.S. LANKAN PRIDEEE!!!!
ok first tell me during startup do u see boot logo? or any logo?
When i boot up, all i see is a lit up black screen with nothing on it
Flash the attached boot.img which is the FXP CM9 kernel from this site, then install the zip.
Ok, thanks, i will try it.
That didn't work either , did the same thing as the other.
I have managed to flash a stock ics ftf file, and i have finally rooted my phone. Now i want to try Rom manager instead to install, but when i go to install Clockwork mod recovery, it says stuff about my phone not currently being officially supported.
Any ideas?

Your boot loader is unlocked right? You wanna install Cynogenmod 9 right? You dont install the one from cyanogenmod site. It has a non working kernel. In XDA there are these guys called FXP (Free Xperia Project) they are the ones responsible for CM for all Xperia devices. So do this. Go tho this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356685 download the CM9 RC 1 FXP 128. Its a 130MB file. Download it and now extract it and flash that boot.img to your Arc S using fastboot. Now start your phone and you should see FXP boot screen then from there go to recovery and try flashing the CM9 RC 1 you have. That should work. I suggest if you can replace the CM9 you have in your memory cad with the FXP128 zip its better so that you can flash the latest FXP128 CM 9, which has lots of improvements.
Edit: Arc S and Arc same ZIP its called anzu

Allright as far as i know there are two ways you can get CMW installed on your phone. 1. Download CWM auto installer from play store and install CMW through that. 2. Flash a kernel which has CWM pre installed.
In this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680793 you can find stock sony kernel with CWM. You download it and flash it using fastboot. That will get you CWM. hope i helped you.
Thanks gnirujan,
I managed to find a FXP127 kernel yesterday and it worked. But this would be even better. I heard that FXP128 is much faster as well, but I've already set up my whole system and dont want to reset it now . Any way of updating it without wiping?
Thanks again !!!

I believe you can try flashing on top of your existing system. I personally have never tried it. But i think it is possible. I would recommend you to flash FXP 128. The improvements are very very visible. More fast and smooth.

I am trying to flash the SuperNexus 3.0 ROM to my D710 E4GT
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2208729
I downloaded the file and tried to open it in the PDA tab of ODIN like I normally would when flashing a device.
There isn't a TAR or MD5 file to open inside of the ZIP file.
I know that I'm missing something and I've searched around but I haven't found anything that points me in the correct direction.
Could somebody point me to what I am missing? Is there a tutorial for installing ROMS from a ZIP that I missed?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply I'll check the page out that you posted.
I am a total noob. I've crept the forums and used Odin to flash a lot.
I guess, I'm surprised by the .zip comment. Not because I know anything about anything (By now this should be obvious) but because when you look at a tutorial on flashing your phone, it always points at using odin.
It's one thing to root your phone with Odin and another to flash a custom Rom. All the custom roms are zip files and in the original post of the threads they tell you exactly the best way to flash the Rom.

I knew the info existed, I needed some help getting to it and wrapping my head around it.
It's refreshing to ask an honest question because I'm over-whelmed and not get flamed out.
Yeah the instructions in that thread are not noob friendly. I hope the sticky can help you out. Use the el26 or el29 kernel packed with clockwork mod available in the kernel repo. You can find it in the Android development forum at the top. Use that kernel and recovery combo to safely flash any rom. Also going to jb you need to do an Odin rooted restore of a stock jb Rom in order to partition everything correctly. You'll be able to find this in Android development too. Sorry I can't provide much links im on my phone at work so it'll take me a bit to link.

I dug around some more and found this:

I went with Chris41g's EL26 Stock CWM5 Repack
It looked like what I needed to root with recovery so that I could install the SuperNexus ROM.
Now, my phone has been stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S II screen with the yellow triangle for a half an hour.
Did I miss something else?

Pull your battery, put it back in, hold the vol up and power until it loads up in recovery. Clean cache, then clean Dalvic cache(in Advanced Menu), Find the zip you want on your sd card install zip. It should boot into your new rom. The CWM repack you used is not the one I would have, but it probably is just the repack kernal and cant boot your phone.

I actually had GB on the device. I got it from the factory yesterday. Apparently it had a higher OS on it. So I had to go put a GB kernel on it.

once you get the phone set up, get Mobile Odin and keep this .tar files on your sd card. If I Mobile Odin back to this .tar then I can get a clean install on any new rom. this is the name of the file you are looking for, we have been requested not to provide direct links
StockCWM-EL26.tar.md5
If you phone boot loops again have thie zip as well. Pull batt, then press vol up and power to get to CWM recovery then clean and flash
EL26_StockCWM.zip
As you will see when you get more experienced, there is more than one way to skin the cat. This is what I do and it works every time.

That's great! Thank you!
I picked up the Stock EL26 loads.
To make sure I understand when you say that you can get a clean install on any new rom, you mean that you can install StockCWM-EL26 first and then throw the ROM on and it works right?
Also as a note, I have gotten the SuperNexus ROM running on my machine. I don't have 3G data yet. I'm still working on it. I installed the latest ICS modem and changed the xml file that was suggested. I then updated the permissions on the file to what the other files in the directory had and rebooted. Still nothing... I'm not sure if this is your wheel-house and you've already helped me tremendously! I'm digging around trying to find answers.

First - Yes, when I want to change roms, I use mobile odin to flash the .tar EL26 CWM kernal. Pull Batt if needed and then Vol up and power to get to CWM. Then I follow the ROM developer's instructions. reboot and almost always get a good clean install.
Second - I use my phone all day for work so I dont mess with the AOSP Roms much. I like them a lot, but I cant have data/connection issues interfere with my lively-hood so I mostly stay on the TW side of things. Cant help you there, sorry...

In this step for SN, what rom did you get the xml from? "NAVIGATE TO system/etc and look for apns-conf.XML and delete it. Then grab one from another ROM that has working data then paste it into the same directory and fix permissions and reboot".
That might be the issue. You need to make sure that a) you have an ICS modem(FL24) is the latest, and make sure you're not flashing it through mobile Odin, it won't take, and b) you have a working apn-conf.xml file from a rom with working data. Dastin15's Wild For The Night is also 4.2.2, and last I checked, had working data. Might give that a go. Good luck!
