[Q] I really need help :( I can't access my recovery

Uh hi I rooted my Xperia Play R800i yesterday to try out a new rom and I went with
"GBTweaked" the problem is my phone isn't picking up any reception,I can't get the Wi-Fi to work (not my main concern),and can access my recovery menu.I have tried multiple apps to open the recovery menu,but none of them work,I really need help!
By the way I'm not great with phones,but if you think I am missing something please say so as I really want my phone to work and I would like to change the ROM back to the stock rom :/
Thanks in advance

Well, what kernel do you use? If you use a custom one like Doomkernel you can try to reflash it. Maybe you can reinstall your CWM.

Firmware update Nokia X/XL on Rooted device

Hi
This q is actually about Nokia XL but should also apply for X (since there is no thread for Nokia XL)
I have a rooted XL. Got a notification that there is a FW update and selected "Update"
The phone rebooted and crashed in the middle, with a white triangle image, and rebooted back to the current firmware.
I have no idea how to update this!! I unrooted it using supersu and tried again, still same result.
Finding a stock updated rom is a huge headache as there are very very few devs workin on XL
So...can anybody help me?
Thanks.

Yeah me too, i can't update to 1.2.3.1 from my nokia XL rooted. Maybe anyone can help please? Thanks

Hi i was getting the same problem but i was able to update then.
the steps i have have followed were:
1.Turn off your nokia xl mobile and again while turning on your mobile you will get a nokia logo on the screen at that time press and hold the volume up button for 10 seconds then you will be getting a recovery window from there you have to select apply update from the external storage option by using power button.
*Selection can be done using the power button.
2.After selecting that you have to select the Android -->>data-->>com.nokia.update-->>files-->>update.Inside update folder you will see the 1.2.3.1 update file which you have downloaded and then select the file by using the power button and the update will start installing like normal. Atleast this was working in my case.I am sure this will solve the problem.

Same here
I have downloaded the update.
I tried to manually update with recovery mode(both stock and TWRP)
Getting error in executing update script in TWRP. It shows updating partitions but fails.
Have a solution, yet?

worked halfway, then failed

Bro, you are a genius. Thanks,
although it said "Update Failed and installation aborted"
verifying current system...
assert failed: apply)patch_check("/system/app/provision.apk", sth and just rebooted.
but i guess i know what the problem might be, i'll try removing gapps reflash the old 1.1.1 rom and then try to update.
that might work. will get back. but thanks for the reply

SOLVED !!
YESS!!
phew!
so heres what i did.
i downloaded a stock rom of 1.1.1 and flashed it using AngSanley's Nokia X Flasher.
(didnt wipe data, that option can be left unchecked)
Then,
Reboot,
selected update again
and voila !! It did..without any problems. And btw, theres now a recent apps button on the drop down status bar in 1.2.3.1, looks smooth.
so...:laugh:

not able to update 1.2.3.1
I followed your steps, however i was not able to find the update in the sd card. can you please tell me is there any option of getting it done manually and saving it to my computer

I tried that but it didn't work. I'm guessing the issue was with gapps. And the only way to remove gapps was through refreshing a stock ROM.

You need to re-install the adb drivers. Then, Nokia X Manager will work once again.

[Q] How do I bring my phone back to Stock ROM?

Well, I used Lewa OS and Recovery, and I was just don't like it, so I want to change back to stock ROM.
I swear that I've tried many things like Nokia Care Suite, Nokia X Flasher, Nokia X Manager many times.
I swear that I've done every single thing that written in all those threads,
but it's always ended up with Lewa logo appear after flashing and rebooted, Lewa was still my phone's OS.
When I got this phone from my uncle, he already installed Lewa, and I could say that I prefer stock ROM than Lewa.
Please help me, I'm very noob at this, what should I do??
one more question, how do I change TWRP recovery to Stock recovery? Nokia X manager can't detected my phone when I install TWRP recovery.
Thank You

You didn't made a Nandroid backup via cwm or twrp? and have you installed the drivers? you can use flashify for recovery but its risky.

Sadly, I didn't made any backup, I don't know that if I install TWRP recovery, it will make my phone can't connected to computer.
And yes, I've installed the drivers for Nokia X, and I choose USB debugging too. Now, Nokia X Manager and Nokia X Toolkit can't see my phone when I connected with USB cable, it always says "No device detected, make sure debugging is enabled" for Nokia X Manager or "Open device normally and connect to PC. With USB Debugging option" for Nokia X Toolkit.
Is there any other way to make my computer to see my phone as USB debugging?
I have no idea to going on, I did almost everything I can. :crying:

Just follow the method suggested by Raizen above. But there are two things I want to add:-
1. The drivers work successfully on windows 8 and 10. It's just that you have to turn off driver signature verification for a while. So don't worry if you have w8 or 10.
2. After flashing kitkat you will get a notification to update to Marshmallow and not lollipop.
P.s.- My opinion on Marshmallow- Everything's fine except the battery backup. I don't know if the issue has been resolved now. But I faced more than 30% drain overnight with location and WiFi off. I'm on CyanogenMod 12.1 now and I find it much better both in terms of battery backup and functionality.

Thanks guys. I will try it and let you know.

You can use kingroot or android one toolkit to root your phone if you are running KITKAT or LOLLIPOP.
