Did you flash the correct kernel? You can't expect it to boot after using ROM Manager without changing to the correct kernel.

Step by Step Flashing a Custom Rom, from Stock /w auto rooting
For Arc (lt15i) // Unlocked BL
You can use this guide, on any custom rom.
I'm using Ultimate HD 3.0.2 when build this guide.
For who kinda new of using flashtool or installing / flashing and rooting a rom.
Preparation
. Copy your custom rom.zip to your sd card ( ex: UHD 3.0.2.zip )
. Copy your custom kernel wifi modules.zip to your sd card ( ex: modules.zip ) *you can get the modules, from the custom kernel thread you use
. I'm using Flashtool 0.9.9.0 *it's ok to use a newer version, haven't try it for older version though
. Download recommended base rom (ICS) => LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).zip : dropbox // dev-host
*It's stock firmware of 4.1.B.0.587 for Arc S, i used it to increase system partition memory from 380mb to 420mb.
A. Back to official rom (unrooted).
========================
. Open flashtool, then click flash button (lighting icon). Choose Flashmode then ok.
. Select LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716) // wipe data , cache, apps log is checked // All exclude, unchecked // No final verification checked then click ok
. After a notification to plugin ur device pop up, connect ur phone (with power is off) while pressing the back key
(it's the left one, not the right one.. the picture on the flashtool is using different device).
. If ur doing right, the led phone will turn green and it will automatically flashing the phone
. After finish 100%, unplugged ur phone.
. Don't turn on the phone yet... let straight to step B
B. Install custom kernel
========================
. With phone still power off, connect ur phone to pc, but with holding the menu key now (the right one).
. If ur doing right, the led phone will turn blue and in the flashtool screen you will see that ur phone is in fastboot mode ( this is the mode u will often use if u wanna change different custom kernel).
. Click flash button (lighting icon). Choose fastboot then ok. A menu will pop up, choose 'Select kernel to Flash'
. Open ur desire custom kernel (file with this extension -> *.elf / *.img / *.sin ).
. It will automatically install after u choose to open it.
. Close it after finish
note :
. Choose kernel that have recovery mode on it. ex: CWM (Clockwork Mod) or TWRP. (Mostly user is familiar with CWM)
. In my case, i'm using Vengeance [ARC/S/PRO][1.32] kernel now. I choose Anzu, because my device is Arc. Also don't forget to download modules.zip, it's for wifi.
. There are many good kernel available for arc/s user like Lupus, Rush, Adv. Stock Kernel, etc, choose what suit for you
C. Install custom rom
========================
. Turn on ur phone now then keep pressing volume down to enter CWM.
. Standard operation before installing new rom :
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- mount and storage -> format /system
- advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
- advanced -> wipe battery stats
. Now install zip from sdcard -> choose the UHD zip file, and follow the instruction in aroma. After finish don't reboot yet.
. Unchecked the reboot in aroma, after finish, u will be back in cwm.
. Now install the wifi modules first ( usually the custom kernel have their own wifi modules).
. reboot system.
. Finish
. Do the steps above, and u will not having bootloop.
. No need to thinking about rooting, Ur device is already root now because mostly cusrom and cus-kernel now is pre-rooted.
. Personally I usually never goes to step 1. Just because stuck on sony logo, i'm doing that just once
This is just for beginner who want to clean wipe, and face a hardtime because stuck / bootloop.
For me, just having stuck on sony logo, or other stuff, I'm just doing from step 3. Back again to cwm, and installed over...

Install RSDLite on your PC. Use WinRAR or 7zip to decompress the. gz file you downloaded (there is an sbf file inside - the clean Froyo firmware you want to flash - and save it somewhere.
Take your Defy and press the power and volume up button and release after some seconds so that you enter the bootloader mode (you see some white text on black ground).
Connect the phone via USB with your PC with RSDLite running.
In RSDLite click the button with the three dots and open the sbf file you extracted.
Hit the start button. Now it starts flashing the firmware, takes a couple of minutes.
When it's done the phone reboots and is running a Motorola Froyo firmware (not rooted or something, it can't really be called a ROM). If you want you can root, install CWM again etc and put your ROM in it again.
Almost always when your Defy is doesn't boot anymore or is somehow broken softwarewise, you can use this method to repair it.
thank you for your time.

If you want the recovery menu you need to install 2ndinit. http://goo.gl/5P89P
Open the app and install the recovery menu with it, then reboot (some say it is safer to reboot even two times). You get the blue LED after powering the phone on, you have to press volume down then. There you can get to the custom recovery and wipe data, cache, install zips from SD etc.

well, i got my bootloader unlocked and got the device rooted
what is the next step?
tried to enter the recovery mode by pressing the volume down button with the power button but it does not work! the device boots normally!
please tell my what is the nxt step
to enter recovery from a phone that is powered off, you must
1. turn on the phone normally.
2. when led's between the buttons light up press vol up or down (I press up twice and down twice cuz I can never remember the right one) depending on what kernel you have with which version of CWM.
3. Wipe data/factory reset
4. wipe cache
5. advanced/ wipe dalvik cache
6. choose install zip from sd card.
7. install the new rom
The above instructions assume that you have already put the ROM zip file on ur sd card and that you have CWM installed.

To enter recovery you need a CWM based recovery installed.. search for cwm auto installer in the market.. or flash any custom kernel with in built recovery..

I just bought my Arc S a few weeks ago and I Flashed it with MIUI by placing the zip file in the root of my SD card and booting my phone in CWM Recovery mode from there I selected "install zip from sdcard", I choose the MIUI zip and then I rebooted but the problem is it just got stuck on the Sony logo.
I have tried every possible key combination every possibel way and none of the them did anything to my phone, flash mode didn't work and neither did recovery, that means that hard resete won't be an option.
I previously had ICS 4.0.4 with an old kenel, it was rooted and it had CWM, everyhting was going fine until I tried to install MIUI..
I didn't made any previows backups.
Is there any way I can recover my phone to it's factory defaults or do I realy need to lie to sony saying that it stopped working after an official update, because it still has woranty.
Please help, I just bought it I don't want to lose it so fast :crying:
Thanks for reading and sorry if I wrote anything wrong, English isn't my native language
Hi ! Try to go in the recovery, Do : Factory reset, wipe cache. After that, go in "Advanced" => Wipe Dalvik Cache & Battery Stats (Optional) and then, flash again. And make sure your kernel is for MIUI and not Stock Kernel. Sorry for bad english too.
And if he's still stuck on boot logo, download the .ftf files (4.0.4) for Arc S and flash it with Flashtool. (Phone in flashmode, to do that you need ; Remove battery, wait 10 sec, put it, press the back button and connect your ArcS to your PC)

Thanks for the reply but I said that recovery didn't work, I've tried Vol. Down while powering on my phone, pressing both the left and the righ buttons, Vol. Up, Home+Back+Vol Up... But nothing does anything, it's stuck at the sony spash screen..
go to repair with pcc or seus
pc comagnon
sony ericsson update service
or
flashtool and a stock rom 4.0.4

Hm.. If you have Recovery, you should be able to go in.. Push vol - a lot.. I mean like : *push* *push* *push* when you powering your phone.. Or try the flash mode. Download this file , FlashTool (Drivers for Fastboot mode / Flash Mode included).
Install Flashtool, install flash mode drivers (C:\Flashtool\Drivers)
Place the .ftf file in C:\Flashtool\firmwares and follow these step :
1. Remove your battery
2. Wait ~10 sec
3. Put the battery back
4. Launch Flashtool
5. Click on the lightning, select Flashmode
6. Select the .ftf
7. Wait until flashtool ask you to connect your phone
8. Push back button & Connect your phone on your PC. (Keep it push'd for 3-4sec)
If you have "Flash Aborted" try again. (Cause the drivers aren't installed yet )
And if you have used x-parts for install CWM, no more Recovery after update/flash phone.
relax, that was one of the challenge when using custom rom.
all problem seems solved with flash tool
download here: flashtool, get it on "instalation" folder
download the firmware (tft): firmware
follow the step provided by WrathChild08 here
Alright, thanks for all your replys,
Pushing repeatedly the Vol Down button didn't work, I'm going to try the flashtool method.
I'll report back later, thanks again
THANK YOOOUUUU SO MUCH!!
It worked!!!
I used tried flashtool, flashed it with a firmware I had and boom, it worked!
Thanks you :laugh::laugh:

Hello Vatsalbh9, follow the steps in video to root your phone.
1. Yes you need to root your device to use custom recovery.
2 & 3. You need to use odin first to get cwm recovery installed in your phone. Follow video steps.
4. When you have installed cwm recovery mode with odin, just go to recovery mode (keep holding vol up+power+home button until samsung galaxy grand gt i9082 logo appears on screen). Der you will see backup option. So make a nandroid backup in your external sd card and transfer that backup (clockworkmod folder in your ext sd card) in your laptop or pc for future use.
Download the files given in the description of the video.

Follow these steps for nandroid backup :-
1. Enter into recovery mode(vol up+power+home button)
2. U will see many options like - reboot system, install from zip, wipe data... Bla bla bla... And BACKUP AND RESTORE
3. Select Backup & Restore option.
4. Once u select it, again many options will come but choose backup on ext sd card/sdcard01
5. Nandroid backup will take around 5-10 mins depending upon your data size.
6. Once the process is complete, you will see a text written on bottom of screen 'Backup is complete'.... Go back to previous menu and reboot your phone.
7. You will find "clockworkmode" folder in your ext sd card. This folder contains your nandroid backup. Transfer this folder to another safe location like pc or laptop.
Note.. While in cwm recovery mode, use vol up and down key for navigation and power key for selecting any particular option.
Also dont increase comments for saying thanks, just press the thanks button
For installing any custom rom, download and save the rom, GApps in your ext sd card and flash them in cwm recovery mode.
Steps for installing rom will be given in respective rom threads but generally these steps are to be performed :-
1. Wipe data/factory reset
2. Wipe cache partition
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. Install rom(zip)
Once installation is complete, install GApps
5. Wipe cache partition
6. Wipe delvik cache
7. Reboot your phone.
First boot of every custom rom will take a longer time to boot.. Varying from 3-10 mins, so dont panic.
Also some custom roms require latest version of cwm recovery, so before installing custom rom, download the recovery and flash it..
1. In cwm( if it is a zip file)
Or
2. In odin( if it is a. Img or. Tar file)

Hope u get it this time.

Is the CWM provided in the YouTube link is latest ?
Cz if I want to install latest rom will it support ?
And is it necessary to flash supersu via CWM for installing custom rom ? Or only CWM is enough ?

No it isnt the latest version, but it will help you to proceed further. Once you get this cwm recovery mode, you can easily flash latest version as well.. And there will be a link given for recommend recovery in rom thread.
No it isnt necessary to flash super su as all cm11 based roms have inbuilt super su with them.

Seems like you dont have usb drivers installed properly in your pc. Does the ID:Com turns into blue color when you connect your phone to pc? If not then install samsung kies first on ur pc.
See d screenshot... The portion circled should be blue... Before hitting start.

1. Use this recovery by pawitp
2. Untick Auto reboot checkbox in Odin.
3. Once Odin shows pass, remove battery, wait 10-15 secs, re-insert and enter Recovery mode (by pressing Vol up +. Power button + Home keys at once until u see boot loader screen and release immediately).

Before you start odin kill kies at background using task manager else it will fail
I didnt immediately took off the battery... I let the fon boot after flashing... I think im making a mistake there... cz I had checked auto reboot in my attempts...
Now im gonna try by unchecking auto reboot option...
When Odin will display Pass, I will disconnect fon from usb and then take off the battery...
Will wait for 15 secs and then will try to boot into recovery mode...
Hope its all done... Fingers crossed...
And I have to release all three buttons(up+home+power)when galaxy grand logo appears... is it right ?

Hello,
A friend of mine tried to change from stock ROM to Eragon a few days ago.
He wiped all data and then tried to flash the ROM from Android system recovery but it wont install the ROM.
So now the phone just loads the boot screen when its started but nothing happens after that. I can still get access to Android system recovery.
From what I understand, he should have installed CWM before doing anything really but what's done is done.
Is there a way to save his phone?
Hi,
no worries, it's safe! Just reflash Stock ROM, afterwards CWM and install Eragon.

But when in fastboot you get android "ADB Interface."
From what I have understood you want to stay in Preloader.
How do I do that?
Have read about sp flash tool, but there seems to be problems with the downloading proces and the mtk drivers.
Any idéas?
Click download first and then connect the phone while it's off. The guide on elephone's site is weirdly explained.

Hello,
A friend of mine tried to change from stock ROM to Eragon a few days ago.
He wiped all data and then tried to flash the ROM from Android system recovery but it wont install the ROM.
So now the phone just loads the boot screen when its started but nothing happens after that. I can still get access to Android system recovery.
From what I understand, he should have installed CWM before doing anything really but what's done is done.
Is there a way to save his phone?

1. Install drivers on your pc

Turn off phone
3. format all + download K05TS-A.A.vA0L.E1.150725.zip
connect phone to pc while off
4. when its done start phone, takes around 5minutes to boot up.
5. download cwm recovery
6. use Spflashtool again and flash cwm.
7. put eragon 2.5 on your SDcard
8. Restart phone in recovery, turn off, powerbutton + vol up.
9. wipe data / factory and cash, and delvik cash.
10. install eragon 2.5
DONE
Thanks for all your suggestions on how to fix it.
I will try them as soon as possible.
To be clear:
You can only install STOCK ROM with SP Flash Tool
You can only install ERAGON ROM via Recovery
To install ERAGON you need to be ROOT'ed and have working CUSTOM Recovery...
Followed Peinnes list of what to do and it worked!

Just i lose my imei duration and i fix it via the EngineerMode (*#*#3646633#*#*) connectivity - cds information - radio information - phone 1 - AT+ EGMR=1,7,"IMEI" and for phone 2 AT+ EGMR=1,10,"IMEI" (with the space between + and E and a restart at the evry time), you save me
Have a nice day
