Hi all Dear Devs and Mates,
will you please restated and tell us newbies if which CWM or which boot menu we will or should I will install a certain Zip?
as far as I know, as only I know, there's
3 way....
thru (will you also all please give the ff. aliases?)
1.) 2nd init (a.k.a as?)
2.) via switch off + down (a.k.a as?)
and via
3.) goapk system recovery and likes (a.k.a as?)
Thanks in advance ^_^
Most of custom stuff you can use. custom recovery.

first make sure you have recovery is installed properly via defy 2ndinit. now in case you havent . please install it properly first by setting debugging on .. installing recovery from 2ndinit . turn debug off and then reboot . you should end up in bootmenu . and that has an option to get into custom recovery

Hi there,
I am trying to instal some custom room. I already installed flash bot drivers, fastbot drivers, xperia s drivers. Now i need to enter recovery mode, but.
Problem is when i turn off my phone and hold VOL UP key, than till holding that button i connected USB cable, BLUE led come out, and that's all, nothing happen. I try to hold VOLD DOWN but the problem is same.
My phone is rotted i have super user app and bottloader is unlocked.
Y u using a usb cable for installing custom roms? If u have unlocked bootloader means u should flash a custom kernel with cwm. Then only u will get into revovery..
If u have recovery installed in ur mobile means just switch on ur mobile and press the volume up button continuously. Don't press and hold it. Just keep pressing. And u will get into revovery mod if have that already in ur device...

I had rooted and installed HD 3.0.2 custom ROM on my son's Sony xperia arc s successfully and it was working well but the adventurist mind set to work and I wanted to try the jelly droid custom ROM.
I went to recovery mode via x tools and did the factory reset and formatting system.
Then I clicked install zip from SD card.it showed that update installed successfully then after around 15 minutes and no further instruction,I rebooted the phone.seems like I missed some step or something which I am not aware of.
now it only shows the Sony screen.I attempted going to the recovery mode pressing the combo keys volume down and power after taking out the battery but nothing transpired.
have I bricked my phone?
Is there any way I could bring it back to life?
would be obliged if anyone could recommend some steps to try and restart the phone.
thanking in anticipation
regards

Did you flash the correct kernel for your phone? Ultimate HD uses stock kernel while the Jelly Droid should be using a custom kernel. You need to have bootloader unlocked to use a custom kernel. CWM does not work after flashing the update package as X tools installs CWM into /system which you just formatted. To be able to use CWM after changing ROM, use a stock or custom kernel that has CWM pre installed on it.

Thanks for your quick reply.it seems I did not flash any kernel or anything else prior to pressing the install from zip.seems a grave mistake on my part.
now that the phone does not even start up what could I do to recover the phone.
I am a complete novice and would request your good self to kindly suggest remedial measures to go back to the stock ROM or HD 3.0.2.The boot loader I think was unlocked before attempting to root the phone.the phone only shows SONY written on it.no turning off even.having to pull the battery to put of the screen.
Thanks n regards

To recover your phone, use Flashtool and install stock firmware to your phone with a correct FTF file. You can find the FTF file from the forum, just search.
OR if you have locked bootloader, then you can also use PC Companion to repair your phone.
Sent from LT18i with custom firmware by myself.
Since you have bootloader unlocked, I recommend that you repair your phone using flashtool, since it's a hassle to relock bootloader to use Sony Update Service. After restoring your phone, flash a stock kernel with CWM on it so you can still use CWM after changing ROM. If you want to go back to UHD, Jader recommends LuPuS kernel to use with his ROM.

Thanks friends for your replies.I woke up to find that my son has already restored the phone using some method as advised by your good selves.he used the flash tool and ftf file.

First of all, calm down , i rarely see arc-s really bricked and not recoverables so ,in this case, the best metod is a thinking mind. Answer my questions.
1° Have you checked your bootloader if it's locked/unlocked or if there is possibility to unlock it ? There are a plenty of guides about it.
2° Please describe how you have installed the rom.
If you have the possibility to reach the recovery , you have to fully format the phone. Factory reset, format system cache and dalvik. Only after that, try to re-flash the rom.

Are you even sure if it's volume up?
Flash mode -> connect phone to PC while holding down back button.
Fastboot mode -> connect phone to PC while holding down menu button.
Enter recovery(if installed) -> hold volume down button when phone boots up.

Did you flash correct kernel for your ROM? The ROM will not boot if the kernel is not compatible.

You don't flash kernel with cwm... Flash kernel using fastboot... Kernels will give you access to recovery...

PC Companion's repair option should work as well, try that one. If you wish to stick to Flashtool, then first make sure you got drivers installed.
HI,
Can anyone help me to go to recovery using hardware keys(power button + Vol down or up). I am using Ultimate BlackXZL V2 Rom in Xperia ZL C6502 (India) . My bootloader is locked.

Hello everybody!
I want to ask something about my Sony Z5 Premium (Marshmallow 6.0.1 bootloader unlocked).
I want to root it via Recovery Mode, but i see that sony hasn't a recovery mode!
I try to reset via adb reboot recovery or power vol + or power vol - but nothing, it reset only. I heard about TWRP, but i don't know how to install it. Can someone help me installing the TWRP, so i can install the SuperSU zip? (sorry for my english, i'm italian and i'm new in this forum )

Look in the Z5P Android Development forum. There's a thread there detailing the steps to root.
