Well I use different phone (Xperia ion) but normally and usually,installing ClockWorkMod Recover is just one click bat file,follow the screen instruction and you are done but as far as I can remember,you must root your device too

Have your phone on with USB debugging and unknown sources enabled. Plug in the USB and open the rooting .bat file. Choose option 2 then hit enter. Open backup & restore and restore the rootme backup. Don't touch it from there (unless a box pops up on the phone which you can hit okay) phone will reboot and it should do its thing. The .bat file screen will tell you everything so read what it says. Shouldn't be any hitting of any other option except 2 for the Sony phones.

Pretty ridiculous for ATT to leave that app out to begin with.
This method has worked for me on all the ics fws, so I don't know. Maybe it was a bad flash, try wiping and flashing ics again.
Uhhhh noo to much work am trying to root with the new method

There are threads detailing how to use flashtool and how to flash the ion. You should read them thoroughly. It is pretty simple.
Hmmp..... Any one have screenshot? Of how to do this.

hey everyone!
i got SE xperia arc with 4.0.4 android version (4.1.B.0.587) model LT15a and its rooted.
i searched few themes in this site and i found one :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1904624
i downloaded the theme file but i dont know what to do with him...i know i need CWM recovery..what i dont know is how to use it..install this...and where i can find version for my arc.
if someone can help me with this please i'll be very greatfull !!
Look in theme, app section to download cwm recovery, until you are familiar suggest you use v5 install app then open app and install cwm into system.
Once installed shut down phone restart then start pressing back key when you see Sony logo, you will enter recovery to navigate around use the vol keys to move up and down and the enter key to select.
To install theme or other mods select install from sd card when in recovery locate downloaded file sd select to install reboot phone and it should install.
But before installing any mod or theme etc always make a backup with cwm recovery. Incase you mess up phone.

Hey, I have a friend with a Sony Xperia Ion (as identified by my computer) she's locked out of it; someone else tried to figure out her pattern and entered it more than 20 times. As far as I know, she doesn't know her secret question or her google account information, either.
My plan to try to bypass the pattern lock is to use AROMA file manager to delete the gesture.key file in /data/system, hopefully that'll remove the pattern lock. So here are my questions:
How can I mount the filesystem on USB to transfer AROMA to her SD?
How can I get into recovery mode to flash AROMA?
The second one is what I really don't get. How does recovery mode work on the Xperia Ion? I can't seem to get it to boot into recovery. Everything I've tried (Hold volume up/volume down/both while powering on) still causes the phone to boot normally.
Did you flash recovery before? If yes you may have to rap SONY logo 5-6 times while booting to get in to recovery or press volume + button 5-6 times while booting. Remember Sony phones do not have stock recovery. You have to flash custom recovery.
And I know another way to remove lock code. Just flash stock ftf. But are you going to loose all the apps.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
Thanks!!! I didn't realize sony phones lacked a stock recovery. I don't want to flash stock ftf becuase I want to preserve apps if at all possible. Can you recommend a custom recovery to flash?
hey try this video it will help u to get unlock without losing data

Look for the development section. You can find cwm recovery easily.

I looked through the development section. Is this it? I don't want to install a ROM, just the recovery.

I have been on this rom for a while:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2267230 and everything was working fine, but now i wanted to change to this rom:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2648304 But now my problem is that I flash provided kernel from this new rom and when i boot to recovery it is not showing anything. There aren't any options to wipe, nothing... at the bottom left it just say cvm recovery and a number and that's it. Can you help me? Did i do something wrong?
If you waited too long and cwm still did not show, you should try this:
reboot to bootloader again and run:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata

Seems like you are doing something wrong, follow instructions written on that thread carefully, if you still can't manage it, stick with stock ROM.
