is your phone Rooted? Bootloader unlocked?
You cand flash kernel in flash mode.
You have to enter fastboot mode. Holding the menu button. It should result in blue led

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...

my xperia arc failed to reboot after downloading new update ,please help
I was trying to installing arcknight kernel..
And by doing this you have to go fastboot which i believe is turning off ur phone and plug the usb while holding the back key after that u have to type fastboot flash boot (name of kernel.img) and it says waiting for device.. ive been waiting for like 10 minutes nd nothings happening..my phone remains black but the led is green..sometimes changing to blue then back to green..
Am i forgetting something or skipped a process?
Sent from my LT18i using XDA Premium App
no,if you do that using flashtool you have not to hold the back key.after your phone is connected being recognized by flashtool you have to chose fastboot mode then reboot in fastboot mode(via ADB) that willsend your phone in to fastboot mode then you can select a kernel to flash it!
Fastboot is hold options button and led goes blue.
If Ied is green your are in flash mode.

Yah.. when i connect the phone its green..so im in the flash mode.. but how to go in fastboot? I followed the steps correctly but still in green..
So by the fastboot i will hold the OPTION KEY instead of back key while connecting the usb?
Can u teach me the exact instructions and its every detail?
DO i need my bootloader to be unlocked?
Sent from my LT18i using XDA Premium App
first of all is your bootloader unlocked or not custon kernels cannot be installed on locked bootloaders.
so if its unlocked press menu key and and attach cable to enter fast boot mode and then u can flash custom kernel by cmd line method or flashtool ( more convenient IMHO) .
for archnight kernel after u flash kernel u need to flash WiFi modules in CWM.

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.

Did you even unlocked bootloader?
And how? Via Sony's site or testpoint method? And what is your model? R800i,a,x?
What do you mean you don't have access to flashmode or boot?
You go to fastboot mode by powering off phone, holding "search" and plug it in pc.
You go to flasmode mode by powering off phone, holding "back" and plug it in pc.
