Probably recovery didn't get installed if You are not able to boot into it. Try using another recovery.

before I installed the custom rom, I can get into cwm recovery.
may the custom rom able to remove cmw recovery?

I have rooted an R800x, Xperia Play. Using flash tool. I had to downgrade from 2.3.4 to 2.3.3 and I want to flash a new rom. I can't flash a rom because I can't install CWM. I used X-Parts to install CWM but when I reboot the phone to recovery using X-Parts, it doesn't boot to CWM. I have tried to manually reboot to CWM using the [back] button, pushing it repeatedly but I still couldn't boot it to recovery. Can you please help me.

What it x-parts? I've never heard of it, and honestly it didnt seem to install anything on your phone.. Use this tool here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774131
I bet it was some app from the play store right?
I too am having the same problems with my r800i, but I ftf the 2.3.3. file just to get the thing out of boot loop. I am now downloading the 4.0.4. ftf file and hopefully get that installed.

hmm...still nothing
I tried adb reboot recovery, and it just reboots normally
I tried to reboot into recovery using Rom manager and the same thing happens.
Thanks for having a look.

You need a custom kernel to flash a custom rom, use fastboot.

That solved the problem. I didn't flash a new kernel. I have CWM running and already flashing a new ROM, thanks for reminding me about installing the kernel.

Guys, when I try booting up my friend's Galaxy W into Recovery mode, it succeeds. But then, when in Recovery mode it ONLY shows the CWM icon with orange hat endlessly. I could not choose anything such as restore or flash zip file as the menu doesn't shows up AT ALL. Then, I try flashing the stock recovery hoping it will fix it but still the same, this time it shows the Android out of the box instead.
Why does this happen? What should I do guys?

Stock recovery indeed shows "Android out of the box". Tap on the box (or press menu, I forgot which), and the picture will dim, then the stock recovery menu will appear. If you don't make the picture dim, it will reboot.
Now, as to the original problem, which CWM did you flash? AFAIK *only* Arco's CWM 6.0.1.2 is compatible with Galaxy W. Do not flash any other version, do not flash CWM from ROM Manager app.
I suggest reflashing Arco's CWM 6.0.1.2.

I don't know how to revert back from cwm to stock recovery I guess if you search the forum you will find it, I remember reading one. But why do you want it anyway because cwm is more useful then the stock one.

If you want the stock recovery, flash it with stock rom using odin. This will wipe everything including root and cwm

Red,
I would want the stock rather than CWM because doing factory reset on stock recovery is BETTER, right? Or I'm wrong?
Ima,
I have done that but still the problem with Recovery mode, no menu appears on screen. Do you know why?

Nope I think doing factory reset on CWM is better. Because in cwm they have options to completely wipe everything so there is none left if you want a clean install. CWM is just like a better and more advance of stock recovery with additional functions.

OK, now I get it. No wonder doing factory reset in stock recovery can result in brick phone.
I'll try flashing the CWM recovery v6 as the CWM recovery v5 was a failure. I'll let you know later. Thanks red!

Dude... Bricked phones are literally "brick", as in you can't use it. Most likely a failure to start-up, not some glitch or bug that happens to your phone
Hello there,
I am new to this forum so tell me if I do something wrong
Today I decided to flash a custom ROM ( I already rooted it... ) and wanted to enter recovery mode to make a backup etc. etc.
But when I held Volume Up + Home Button + Power Button it first showed the samsung note II text and then started flickering with something like brown stripes...
Does anyone knows what it is and what the solution is for it?
Thanks in advance,
Ahmed
If you wanted to make a backup you should have a custom recovery so which one?
Which firmware or custom rom do u currently have?

I can't seem to find a answer for this problem. I have an xperia zl C6506 which I have unlocked bootloader and also have rooted. My problem is that I try to install cwm recovery which I can but after I do that I can get into recovery but cannot bot into stock. I then have to go in and use flashtool to kernel so I can boot again but then can't get into cwm recovery again. Need help read everything I can and tried more then once to install cwm recovery but always have same issue. Hopefully someone can help me with this because can't install custom rom. Did I miss something please help.
Sounds like the recovery you're installing isn't compatible with ROM? what ROM are you using and what kernel/recovery specifically? Are you using doomkernel? Because doomkernel comes with both TWRP and CWM and I know it works with stock. If you're not using stock, then Meow kernel?

press volume button while LED is i think purple? or orange? Once it lights up with a color, press a volume button, it'll change color a second later then boot into recovery.

Thanks for all your help worked like a champ. Tried it power up CWM recovery and power down TWRP recovery. Again thanks much the xperia zl is very different from all the other android smartphones I have had.
One other question I now have after installing the custom recovery is my Wi-Fi is no longer available. The doomlord kernel has made it non-usable. Any clues on how to fix this issue? I'm sorry for asking so many questions but like I said new to xperia zl.
I figured it out after I installed the doomlord kernel I then went back into CWM recovery and installed the whole zip file everything works. Any way thanks for your help without it I would have never been able to flash a rom. I'm now a very happy camper.

Do you mind helping me out i have the same problem as you. I am not sure where to put the files that are in the v17 zip. when i open them i see 3 folders and a boot.img. i have been using the flash tool up until this point. I am rooted and my bootloader is unlocked. I am just not sure how to flash the kernel so that i can get some type of recovery on y c6506 . any help would be helpful. I did a search and found this
[ how to install my kernel ] (via fastboot)
download the kernel package update.zip......i did this
save it on c:\ and extract the boot.img from the package....not sure what that means. does it just mean drag it to my deck top or something
save the boot.img to the folder containing fastboot binary....where is this folder?
flash the boot.img using fastboot:... i can use flash tool for this but when i click the lighting i check fastboot instead of flash
like i said any help would be great. And I will thank you
can anyone help me? i have flashed H2os with modified twrp and when i have flashed the rom i have reflashed the original twrp.. now my phone is working but op3 dont want to boot into recovery.. oneplus show black screen when trying booting twrp.. i dont have root.
i have tryed to flash twrp with the toolkit, it flash right but it shows black screen,
thank you!
Go to blusparks kernel thread from there download the latest recovery. Boot your phone into fastboot, then flash that recovery. Boot into recovery then flash whatever you wish!
