CWM Disappears after installing any new rom.

CWM is no more there after installing a new rom and new rom won't load. Then i have to flash the stock rom again > root it > install CWM. Again when i install any rom it would install normally but nothing gives a blank screen after reboot and the stock rom is not even there.
The situation is occurring with the following;
Phone: Sony Xperia ARC S (LT18i)
Bootloader: unlocked
Android version 2.3.4 (Build 4.0.2.A.42) -
I have made multiple attempts on installing new roms but nothing works. Every time i reboot after installation im left with a blank screen. Can anyone advise what the problem could be ?
Thanks
Did u flash the kernel for the ROM u flashed ? The ROM will not boot without its kernel.

you must be installing CWM into the system through one touch command prompt program.. as such as soon as the ROM changes and you wipe out data and cache, CWM disappears..try flashing a custom recovery kernel which are available even for stock roms.
Also follow these steps for a custom ROM (eg CM9):
download the ROM, extracted it into a folder, copy the boot.img where you can remember, then copy the original cm9 ZIP - not the extracted folder- into the root of SD..use fastboot mode of flashtools to flash the kernel boot.img which you had copied..its a recovery kernel so CWM should open..wipe out SD data..then cache..and then go into advanced option and clear dalvik..and then proceed to install zip from sd..then gapps.zip if u want..it should install fine..and then reboot.
Press Thanks if you think i was of help to you..:good:

Got it - Yes i was installing CWM within stock rom via market. though i tried to install it through adb/windows but still i guess the problem was all about not installing a custom recovery kernel.
Thanks a lot !

[q] system update not installing in custom recovery[twrp]

Hi in my micromax a1 I've installed custom recovery twrp. So after that when I get the new lollypop 5.1.1 system update notification and download it then after the phone restarts it opens in recovery mode and opens the twrp. I've also try to flash the update.zip from my internal memory path but its not flashing and showing some error message. So I've decided to go back in stock recovery. For that I went for the recovery in my stock kitkat rom in sp flash tools. But when I connect my phone it is not detecting with or without battery. What should I do now? pls help...

Bootloop help

Hi guys, this morning I decided to root ny tablet. I flashed CWM custom recovery and then installed universal android root zip file through the recovery. My goal was to unlock the full potential of Lucky Patcher by having unlocked Root permissions. I succeeded in installing the zip file, and everything was perfect. Unfortunately after custom patching Google play with LP, it kept crashing on startup. So (my bad) I decided to revert to factory settings. By doing this I'm now stuck in this never ending bootloop. I tried reinstalling .zip file through the use of ADB sideload, but when I exit that menu to reboot the device after having installed the .zip the device boots in CWM recovery mode. I really need your help as I'M very new to these type of things. Thand you
Back to stock ROM and start all over again

Problem updating to OxygenOS 3.5.3 CE

hello everyone, hope you all have a nice day...
i'm no on NON-ROOTED stock OxygenOS 3.5.2, yesterday OTA update to 3.5.3 appeared on my phone and i downloaded it, i have TWRP recovery, then in rebooted to TWRP to install the update, after thtat, phone reboots again and said Update failed, if i go to system update now,it wants to download a 1.3GB file instead of former 80mb file! can i update using the 80mb OTA file instead of downloading a 1.3gb file ?
OTA wont work with TWRP Recovery. You need to revert back to stock recovery to use OTA.
And If you use full ROM ZIP, it will break your TWRP recovery.

It worked for me with TWRP. But I did something different. If you turn on "show hidden files" in any supported File Manager you'd notice a folder named ".OnePLusH2Ota" that's where the downloaded update files are stored as a zip. So all you have to do is download the update file and Move it to the Root directory from the update folder. Then boot into TWRP and flash the zip and it will work.. Hope that helped
**REMEMBER THE TWRP I USED WAS NOT THE OFFICIAL TWRP. IT WAS A CUSTOM VERSION OF TWRP**

I was able to download and then flash the update .zip with the modified TWRP, didn't break that version of TWRP.

Update failed [Help].

2. Completely go back to stock rom with stock recovery
3. Also get updates and install without fail
Please help Guys.
Thanks in Advance

Well, probably its a problem with your boot.img partition. Extract boot.img from stock rom zip, then flash it via fastboot flash boot boot.img and then, flash orginal recovery same as boot. Then, finally, flash via recovery STOCK ROM. Probably now it will be fine.
If not, try flash TWRP and make FULL WIPE included system partition and repeat upper steps.
Cheers.
In twrp goto wipe and do normal wipe remember don't do advance wipe otherwise it'll format internal storage as well so avoid advance wipe only do normal wipe then install full 3.2.7 zip and super su. zip

before you flash 3.2.7 mount system read-only. you can do this under "mount"
it is a known bug with twrp and oxygenos
You can download the stock boot logo from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862664522

if you are on stock recovery you cant change the mounts.
flash twrp to flash bootlogo and oxygenos 3.2.7
otherwhise you have to install via sideload but this is very slow and you cant flash stock bootlogo
so flash twrp and then mount system read-only and then flash oxygenos 3.2.7 and after or before this you can flash the stock bootlogo
