Guys please help me, I updated to 587 via SUS. Rooted with method lt18kernel/doomlord root kit/lt15 587kernel. Then loaded x-parts v7.. I had problems loading zip package. I removed x-parts and loaded RecoverX for 4.0.. Same problem! I need a fully working version of CWM for Xperia arc !
I think you'll have to reflash the ftf

I think that this is the easy way!!
No need to reinstall ftf.
Just do as mentioned in previous post download v5 cwm from thread, then update app via the play store to v7( xparts) once updated look for the folder xparts on sd card ( use root explorer) then open that folder you will see file called recovery.tar move this file to system/bin setting permissions like this
Top row all checked
Middle just left and right checked( leave middle unchecked)
Bottom left and right checked( leave middle unchecked)
Restart phone and you will have working v7 cwm.
Hope this helps and is clear

Hi, I'm having trouble installing cmw 5.5.0.4, already tried with xparts, FlashTool, nothing works. Always reboot on system insted recovery. I'm using the stock firmware 587 with root enabled through the method of doomlord. Using stock kernel too. Can someone give me a hand to install? Any idea? thanks
Install v5 then update to v7.
Once v5 installed ad updated tov7 move the recovery.tar to system/bin with permission set

Use root explorer to move and set permissions.

sorry, you can be more specific? instal v5 and update with wich method? thanks for your help.
Look in theme and app arc section for part buy pvyparts and download and install cwm v5 (open app and install cwm in to system) then update via app store to xparts which is v7.
Once updated to v7 look on sd card for xparts folder and move the recovery.tar to the system/bin folder setting the correct permissions as mentioned earlier.
Then you will have a working 5.5.0.4/v7

Go in xParts thread here on XDA and download older version (v5), if it boots then (older CWM) try to update to v7 via Play Store and install CWM 5.5.0.4 again.

Go to theme/app section look for post about recovery by pvypart and download v5 install app then install cwm.
Then update app via play store to v7.
Look in sd card for xparts folder then move the recovery.tar to system/bin setting the right permissions check other files in folder for this.
Then you will get a working v7 xparts recovery.

HELP ME
I am sorry to intervene, but how come I always get boot loops when flashing this ROM via X Parts CWM. My phone was a 4.1.B.0.587 model, and I downgraded kernel using flashtool from .587 to .562 to root using doomlord. Once rooted, I then upgraded kernel again using flashtool. Now my phone is STOCK ROOTED with 4.1.B.0.587 model. Then I rebooted my phone to go to x Parts CWM once the blue notification LED is shown. This is when the annoying part starts.
1) Full wipe (factory wipe, cache wipe, dalvik cache wipe, battery stats wipe, even went to mount and storage and did /format -data, /format-system, /format - cache, /format - sd card ext.
2) Install zip from sd card to flash this ULTIMATE HD ROM. AROMA Installer loads and viola, I am at the first stage of AROMA installation.
3) I did even checked 'WIPE' in AROMA installation. When everything is done installed, it went back to CWM and it says something like
"Okay Ultimate HD has finished installing, phone will reboot. Thanks". So my arc s rebooted and then it went to have a bootloop. WTF. Guys help me please been trying to do this for 2 days. I never had any problem when using Thillinac Ice Cream Pureness. Grrr.

So weird ;
1. Why do downgrade to root--if you unlocked bootloader you're superuser.
2.If u unlock BL, now u dont even need Xparts...which use for lock BL
3.if you answer me "my phone still lock BL"--so u cannot flash modded kernel and modded ROM
Suggest for you = > use the stock kernel which recomended by the ROM....use CWM 5.0 or higher....

You can't flash firmware (FTF) from your phone. You have to use flashtool.

Perhaps be more clear next time too. And you're welcome.
---------- Post added at 08:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:00 PM ----------
To help gain some clarity, as you've not provided some crucial information:
Do you have root?
Did you actually install CWM?
If you've done both of these you can flash any zip that was made for the LT28. If you're trying to flash a zip for another model it's likely not going to work. I avoid flashing mods, opting instead to install them manually.
All of this is covered in the ion forum if you bothered to reeeeead.
I thought it was a givin that I had root I spose not tho I was pretty clear. The only reason I was a bit curt was because I had "not roms" in brackets.
The zip files im trying to install have to do with the audio player so they are probably more of a driver type thing. My firmware is stock,rooted CWM Rom is not installed I have the CWM app and it says there is no recovery for this phone stock ics rooted locked boot. And yes I have been searching but havent found much useful yet.

You need to connect device to computer for almost all aspects. Root , cwm, mods etc.
You need to solve the pc issue first then look into mods and such.
Also if root you can manually replace the file with root explorer from the extracted zip

Type this "cwm recovery for xperia ion" or this "clockwork recovery for xperia ion" in google search and come back and tell us what you found.
Our phones will not boot into recovery from cwm all we really have is flashmode. Yes some zips can be flashed through cwm such as themes and what not from the Xperia s but you need to match mounting points and what not, if you flash a bad zip you may get a boot loop if that's the case just shut the phone off then run flashtool reflash the. Ftf and you'll be fine.

Hi everybody,
I have a stock Xperia arc S fully stock. Today I try to root my device and after I sucessufuly complete the root, I've started to unnistall all the unnecessary apps in order to improve the device speed. I was thinking I was doing everything right but I think I have unnistalled some apps that a shoudn't. After I exit the Titaniun backup I've notice that I have no launcher, so I try to reboot the device. After that it does not pass the second logo and I don't know what to do. Last time I've had the USB Debug off and now I can't turn it on to restore via PC company and I've allready try to flash the previous kernel but I really think the problem is related to some apps that I've had unnistall. Do you think you can help me solve my problem?
Thank you for your time :l
