How to boot in recovery mode? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I want to install the next rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448552
through recovery mode.
But how do i come in the recovery mode on my SE Arc S?
--
I had already tried with ROM Manager but then nothing happens, only the phone is rebooted, and does not start in recovery mode.
--
Thanks!

Install the x-parts app and through the app install recovery.
To boot into recovery, turn on your phone and in the Sony Ericsson splash screen (not the boot animation, the first screen) and when the LED indicator turns blue, press volume down, then you'll be in recovery.
Next time you post a question use the Q&A forums.

installing cwm recovery using cwm autoinstaller apk but my phone does not reboot into recovery.i have tried pressing every key volume rockers,back key,mrnu key but nothings happen.pls help.

Propably you'll need to have kernel with recovery inside so you'll have to unlock bootloader.

Factory reset shouldn't do any harm. It's just going to delete all your data on phone and restore default settings. Anyway, if you would eventually have some problem, you will be able to fix it with Flashtool.

You want to install cm10.1? You must use custom kernel with it... They have cwm version built in... You don't have to install cwm...

Download from the link v5 (v7 dies not install properly)and install app, then open app and install cwm into system.
To enter recovery press the back key when you see Sony logo, it might be vol button or just try every button until you find which works on your phone

Hi there,
I am using Rush Kernel on Ultimate HD 3.0.2
Device Arc S
I am not able to get into recovery mode (unlocked bootloader - status checked) with pushed volume down button.
Can anyone help me? Or is this normal? (I am sorry, but I didn't read all 32 pages of Rush Kernel thread)
Thanks in advance!

Think I may bricked my phone...

I have unlocked bootloader and rooted the phone. I was on stock ICS 4.0.4 and then tried to flash a ROM. It was saying Installed succesfull etc, when I was rebooting, stuck on Sony Logo... And won't go back to CWM...
What to do?

It's not bricked just stuck on bootloop.
Reflash either stock rom or if you have working fastboot then install a custom kernel that matches the Rom you tried originally.

Put the device in flashmode? Or download mode? (Hold back button or menu button? then connect the phone to the pc)
To install the boot image or stock rom?

press the menu button and plug the usb for fastboot (download mode) which indicates blue color notification.
Just tried to flash the boot.img from omega, didn't work! Still showing Sony logo and nothing further :/ But I can now go in to CWM ;D
You don't want to go to cwm. Just flash it with stock kernel (.ftf ) using flash tool. Then you'll be able to run your handset!!
Best of luck.

[Q] Cant enter recovery

Hello!
Just unlocket my bootloader with freegee. I have the E975 device with v10d. I have chosen the CWM touch. But i could not enter. It just entered fastboot. Then tried again with freegee but this time i picked the other one. Version 2.5. Still just enters fastboot.
I searched the threads, Only hits i got was some failure about the boot. Not the same problem i have.

THANK YOU! I couldn't enter recovery after some nasty bootloop. You helped a lot! It was power+volume_up to get to fastboot, then tap volume_up twice then tap power and done!

I formatted my /system folder when i was in cwm recovery, i have a backup, but i have no way of getting back to recovery. you enter it by pressing any button when the blue led comes on in the middle of a boot. but it gets to the SE screen, and no further.

You can use the kernel from Android Original Dev Section, But before that, you need to Backup your TA Partition and then Unlock the bootloader if you wish to have a custom kernel and/or a recovery..

You need to unlock your bootloader to access recovery mode, if your device isn't unlocked then you can't access your recovery .
