Nope, You need to root to install cwm. Else You can install even without rooting, but You need to unlock bootloader and flash a custom kernel which has pre-installed cwm.

hi,how do you install recovery on stock ICS rom with stock kernel? thanks
You need to be rooted. Once you got root you can download clockworkmod from the market or from app/theme look for post by pvyparts.

I mean i cannot be root, not that i cannot install the gin2jellybean. So there is any posibility of being root agin?
If your boot loader is unlocked just flash superuser permissions zip in recovery! Flashing root in recovery is the best most easiest and fastest way to root any phone on any rom !
Hi guys,
My friend just gave me his old xperia arc and I want to root it, unlock bootloader and flash super jellybean 6.0. I have a xperia play running cm10 so I'm not a complete noob. however, I can't seem to be able to root the xperia arc. I tried using flashtool and superone click without anyluck
Some details about the phone that might help
Xperia Arc unlocked
Model LT15a
Running stock 2.3.4
4.0.2.A.0.62 firmware
Do I have to down grade or update the firmware? or would unlocking the bootloader and then flashing a kernel be any faster?
Thanks in advance :good:
You can use this to root your phone on stock .62 firmware

tried the eroot thing and the doomlord toolkit but it didn't work :crying: any more ideas?
If you're flashing a custom ROM root is not required. Just flash a custom kernel for your custom ROM that comes with a recovery so you can flash the ROM in recovery.

Did you check USB Debugging,Unknown sources,and go to connectivity as USB connection mode chose Mass storage mode(MSC)
Don't turn off the phone,turn on the application for rooting(eroot) and then connect your phone and just once click on root and what until it finishes.

I don't think that he meant bootloader unlocked i think he was talking about simlock free.

You can unlock your bootloader, flash a custom kernel using fastboot then flash a custom ROM. Root is not required since the custom ROM is already rooted.

I'm not sure about over the air updates. However you can update your phone through PC Companion if it is rooted but the bootloader is NOT unlocked, and you can also flash an ftf onto the phone using flashtool if your phone is rooted even if the bootloader is unlocked.
There is also several methods of rooting 4.3, one of the easiest being towelroot as it is a one click root app for use on your mobile and it has the remount reboot fix enabled so you don't have to worry about that.

In the dialer type *#*#7378423#*#* (*#*#SERVICE#*#*) and click on Service Info and the Configuration. Under rooting status you will see a string of text. If it says Bootloader unlock allowed (either yes or no, it doesn't matter) your device has a locked bootloader. If it says Bootloader unlock: Yes then you have an unlocked bootloader.

Not at all, there are many root methods available for 4.3 now. The most effective is towelroot, if you download the most recent version from the website (do this from your phone as it is an apk) you don't even have to run the remount/reboot fixer as it is embedded into the app.
I have rooted my phone XMD its now 4.2 how can I update it to 4.3??
As the title says, I was wondering if it was possible to have recovery without unlocking the bootloader. I know that sony phones have recovery.img unified with boot.img and that is not possible to flash custom kernels with a LB. But on old xperia U there was a way to have recovery without needing to unlock the bootloader.
Thanks in advance
