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....

**IF YOU THINK I HELPED THEN SHOW IT BY PRESSING THE THANKS ICON**
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.

Phone blocked at 2nd logo

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

wipe cache &dalvik; run aroma from cwm and select your preference
You not do a backup via cwm recovery just reinstall backup if you have.
Sent from my LT15i using xda app-developers app
If you installed cwm..
Then go to cwm when you power on by pressing volume down +power on
And do factory reset
Else download latest stock Rom(.ftf files) and flash via flash tools

Xperia S stuck at SONY logo

what happened today is,
i wiped dalvik cache, cache partition and flashed a camera mod for my cell through cwm and it required me to wipe those cache and then flash the zip file. then after reboot i had to clear data and force stop the "Cyber-Shot' from settings>app.
i did it and the camera app worked for a few clicks.
lateron i got error tht no camera found so i reboot into cwm and clicked on recovery to recover the backup that i had taken before installing the camera mod. there i got success message at the same time i saw errors llike
cannot mount cache and some more related to cache..
so now i am stuck at SONY logo, i cant go into cwm.
i have Xperia S .45 build
stock rom kernel
locked bootloader
just rooted using binary's tool and installed cwm.

[Q] [Acro S] Flashing from Original 4.1 to 4.4

Sorry for maybe a silly question... but don't know how to go on...
Tried the instructions I found but had no success.
First of all I rooted it with Flashtool => Works
Than I installed CWM => Works
Copied 4.4.2 Beanstalk Rom and Gapps ins CWM folder on SD Card
Booted into CWM, formated everything, installed both zips, restarted => Black => no start => no possiblity to boot in cwm.
Flashed Original Stock rom with Flashtool again => Phone lives again.
Tried a second time => same results....
Where is my failure? Is there an other option to flash from 4.1 to 4.4 than CWM? Do I have to flash Kernel seperatly?
Many thanks in advance.
no kernel and rom can be flashed together
make sure you wipe your data, dalvik, and cache

do I have to unlock bootloader?
Only made root with the change of kernels as per instruction... but no separate unlock of bootloader? Is this maybe the failure?

me too.... till I found this instructions
wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_hikari
So step by step the way is:
Root Phone with Flashtool
Unclock the phone this way: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_hikari
(Is unlock also possible with flashtool?)
Install CWM.
Boot into CWM
Format Data
Install Rom
Install Gapps.
Correct?
