Hi everyone,
Before criticizing me for posting this thread please note that I've spent a lot of time googling and trying to find a solution.
Before I begin I want to mention that I'm pretty new to android system. I learned few basics today but must admit I'm a noob. I've had my Xperia Arc S for a while now, but decided to root it (got annoyed with all restrictions + bloadware). But to the point.
After few hours I successfully unlocked bootloader and rooted my device. It's been 7 hours now and I'm really stuck. Finally I decided to get help from you guys - I'm just fed up with it.
Here's my problem:
At the first place I had Android 2.3.4 [4.0.2.a.0.62]. Found out that this version is hard to unlock and root, so I downgraded it to 4.0.2.a.0.42 (which apparently was easier to achieve what I wanted).
Then I followed the guide how to unlock bootloader - succeeded.
Later I used OneClickRoot to root my device - also succeeded.
Now the problem begins - I've read this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592104
Tried to install CWM using Rom Manager - failed as I got the message that my LT18i is not supported. Instead I installed X-Parts and using it I installed CWM. Seems it all went fine but I can't access Recovery Mode - and seriously I tried everything: volume up, volume down, hold, pressing few times, tried even with back and menu button. I also tried "Reboot to recovery" option in X-Parts - still no result.
I downloaded SE Extreme Tweak and installed CWM using this program but still nothing.
As far as I know to install new ROM I need an access to Recovery Menu. I want to install Stock ROM 2.3.4 [4.0.2.a.0.62] (the one I had before) and remove unnecessary bloatware.
Any suggestions guys? How to fix that Recovery Mode problem?
My device details:
Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S
LT18i
Android version: 2.3.4
Buld number: 4.0.2.A.0.42
Thanks for any help!

Have you tried flashing a custom kernel? As far as I know, they come with recovery pre-installed. I'd suggest you give the following a go. Should definitely work for you.

Thanks for reply. Well the thing is - maybe it's a bit silly reason - that I love the favourites widget in 2.3.4. As far as I know this widget is not available in any other versions - even custom ROM's....
edit: Sorry just noticed that it's actually "fixed" version of stock Kernel. Thanks, will try to give it a go then
Are these similar to what you're looking for?

I'm sure Google Play has a lot of what you want.
The first one is. I used it before - need to use Go Launcher with it though, which I didn't really like :/
The one I'm talking about is called "favorites and call log widget" (sorry apparently as a new user I can't post outside links to show you what I'm exactly after)
@ MarcSinger
thanks again for trying to help, I've read the post, however it still requires to boot the phone in recovery mode, which I'm not able to do
Any other suggestions guys?
Guys I sorted it out!!
I unrooted the phone (don't know if this helped), rooted again, then found this app "5.0.2.7-nAa-r2 Auto-Installer", installed it on my device and installed CWM from there. Now I can access Recovery Mode. Finally I can carry on with flashing ROM. Will try to install what MarcSinger posted.

If your bootloader is unlocked then simply flash a kernel with CWM, no need to install it via the apps.

u solved it yourslef, lol.
this app is cwm-auto-installer. i always use it after rooted to install cwm though i flashed the custom kernel had cwm pre-installed.
2 cwm is just better for me, i dont know why but i use lupusv14 kernel, in kernel's cwm, it doesnt do the action "advance restore" like restore system only, so i return to manual cwm to do this

sr, i just seen this notif. maybe cwm was not installed actually, though these apps (xpart, rommanager, recovery...) said is was completed. i think these apps cannot install by ifself (if i remember exactly, cuz a long time ago n i dont use arc anymore). so u must use cwm-auto-installer app, install this app, open it then tap 3rd line to install cwm inside this app. i always do that after root (though i use kernel have cwm preinstalled).
after that, when u power on ur phone, ull see green led light which means u have cwm already n able to access cwm by pressing volume (-) when that led light appear, through that moment u cant access anymore n must reboot to try again. or easier u can use [ndr utils] app, have all reboot option.

If you have an unlocked bootloader just flash a kernel with CWM on it, why go through all the trouble to use CWM auto installer if it doesn't work for you?
You could also try connecting your phone with your computer, make sure you have adb drivers installed and adb turned on in developers settings on your phone , then just type in this command within a terminal: adb reboot recovery .
Please Note that this solution does not mean you haven't got recovery installed on your phone, so this one might fail.!
Have you guys tried holding power + camera? I once had a recovery installed which used the camera button to enter recovery
Also do not press the power button for to long or your phone might just restart and doesn't have the time to boot in recovery, so start up holding volume down or up and press power, realease the power after like 7 seconds , (can't remember how long it really was so experiment.... )
hi,
i have sony xperia L c2104 ..i decided to root the phone as my warranty period is over.
as adviced in some posts,,i unlocked bootloader as shown in sony website.
then phone got stuck in splash screen forever.
then as as said in wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_taoshan i have done all the steps and continued till sideloading of downloaded cm 12.1 nightly. final msg in cmd prompt showed Total xfer: 1.00. then i pressed reboot system now on phone. this should end installation of cm as said in the post.
but my phone again restarts in cm recovery mode only.
i repeated flashing boot img and sideloaded cm12.1. again the phone is in recovery mode as i restart.
pls solve the problem.
While in boot recovery, try install from sd card, and pick the cm 12.1 file that you have sideloaded and install. Then reboot again and see if it opens to CM.
Have patience, it is a specific procedure to get all the steps right, and can be a little different everytime. Post here and let me know how it's going.
The things I noticed about the bootloader unlocker from Sony were: it doesn't have you load a super user, and its not telling you how to install the new ROM. Me personally, I've always installed super user, since some apps and ROMs need it to function. You should still be able to install CM12.1 without it, but no guarantees. If not, try root with odin3, which worked for me. Unfortunately, I don't have an xperiaL to reproduce the exact steps needed.
I have no idea how to root or anything like that, I bought this oneplus 3 and had a update a week later.. so when I did the software update it took me into teamwin recovery mode and now I don't know how to get back into my phone please help....
Did you buy the phone second hand or did you try to flash TWRP yourself? It shouldn't have TWRP installed by default.
Regardless, you can use TWRP to flash the latest update.
Given that you have TWRP, I'm assuming that you have an unlocked bootloader. Did you notice a warning pop up everytime you reboot your phone before? It should say something along the lines of "your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted". If not, you'll have to unlock it (it wipes your phone in the process).
If the bootloader is unlocked, you can simply download and flash the latest zip for OOS 4.0.3 in TWRP. This will update you phone and replace TWRP with the stock recovery (so you don't run into this problem again in the future when installing an OTA). If you don't intend to modify your phone in any way, then this is all you need to do, your phone should be functional.
There are plenty of threads with detailed guides on how to do all of this.
I'm also stuck on TWRP after stupidly downloading the latest OTA and I don't know what to do!
Phone won't boot normal, just goes off.
Situation:
- Bootloader, Fastboot and TWRP wil load.
- Device seen by windows
- Zip install in TWRP gets stuck at 'patching zip unconditiontally'
- Another zip flashes, but gets stuck at the end, no reboot option (manually but that's not the way)
Can someone please point me in the right direction? I don't care if I lose data, just want my phone back!

Saying i'm a dipsh-t I know, I know, I will do better in the future, for now, help a brother out please

Simple, check the OnePlus D/L sites for this one http://oxygenos.oneplus.net.s3.amazonaws.com/recovery_op3.img and flash it by TWRP or fastboot to RECOVERY. Boot once with the official Recovery and all ist fine again.
This is issue of using a faulty twrp so for that when ur phone us booting up go to fastboot and flash twrp 3.0.4-1 and everything will work

Similar Problem here:
just wanted to flash latest OOS 4.0.3, so I flashed back stock recovery with flashify and rebooted into recovery mode to flash the already downloaded OOS 4.0.3. zip. That's when it began to go poop! After rebooting it just went dark with no Chance to power it on again! No dice with power button, Volume up/down + power button, nothing! Not even the LED's are blinking when plugged in. So this one seems to be basically dead!
I got it once booting again after randomly pushing the buttons (after x minutes!?), but everytime I reboot the phone it just shuts off without beeing able to power it on again. At the Moment it's dead!
Any ideas what might happened? If I get it on again, should I immediately reset it to factory Settings?
I am kinda lost here! Any help/ideas would be much appreciated!
Flashify? Never used it and never trusted apps which flash stuff on a running system. Use fastboot and reflash the recovery partition. Link to recovery is in my former post.
fastboot flash recovery PATHTOIMGFILE
Thank you for your advice! Still a lot to learn! Got it up again, will try as you suggested!
It appeared that my stock recovery file was corrupted , but all is fine again! Thank you very much!

I may have been the person you traded with to get the OnePlus 3, but I took the phone back and after 5 hours I got it up and running.
The phone would boot to TWRP, but even after wiping the entire system and dragging a ROM zip to the internal storage, reinstalling did nothing. It just kept booting back to recovery.
The solution entailed the following.
Download stock recovery IMG. Flashed through TWRP. Rebooted recovery and now was back to stock recovery.
Download the official OxygenOS ROM zip from the OnePlus website and changed the name to update.zip
Next I downloaded Android studio for access to ADB. I had never used ADB before, but I knew this was needed to push a file to the phone.
Needless to say, ADB kept freezing my computer when I would type in the commands to side load.
I deleted Android studio and installed a minimal ADB/Fastboot I found online. I opened my command prompt, typed the command for sideloading, and immediately got my installation starting. It took about 10 minutes to fully install. When it was finished, I rebooted and had a fully functioning OnePlus 3

Hi guys, I decided to start modding this smartphone, now that I have a computer capable of compiling in a few hours.
I ported TWRP 3.0, based on Omni 6.0 source to this device. There are a few things not working and I need other people's help and feedback.

-Necessary steps:
Unlock bootloader. Here's a guide from Sony
-How to install:
1)From computer, open a terminal (Linux and MacOS) or command prompt (Windows) where you saved the file (download below). (Linux And MacOS. On Linux you'll need to flash with sudo) or where you have the platform-tools (Windows)
2)Poweroff your phone.
3)Boot into bootloader by pressing Volume+ button while connecting the usb cable into the usb port (the usb cable has to be inserted into the computer's port too, to successfully boot into fastboot)
4)With unlocked bootloader, type fastboot flash recovery twrp_3.0.2-0-seagull-UNOFFICIAL.img, if you renamed the files, substitube "twrp_3.0.2-0-seagull-UNOFFICIAL.img" with your file name or the directory where you saved the file.
5)When you see the OK message from fastboot, disconnect your phone.
6)Press Power, Volume+ and Volume- untile the phone vibrates.
7)Release Volume+ key. When you see the Sony logo appear, wait 3-4 seconds and then release Power button.
8)You should see TWRP bootscreen after a few seconds
-What's working:
Almost all. I could succesfully flash GApps and Root packages from this recovery, Backup, Restore and Wipe partitions. Settings work fine. Terminal and File manager work.
-What's NOT working:
Can't read files MicroSD or USB-OTG, can't browse in them and can't wipe. Investigating about it.

Cool, although upon booting into recovery the screen isn't operating normally, similar to what happens when flashing the fxp lollipop. Might be because I'm on stock ROM/kernel though.
What do you mean with "isn't operating normally"? The screen only displays coloured bands? If so, it should have be fixed, maybe only the download link is wrong. Tell me, I'll fix in a minute

Yes, sorry for not being more specific xD, I'm indeed getting the white-grey bands on screen.

It's possible it's the lollipop kernel that's to blame, since I've had the same problem with other lollipop builds.

Tried both versions, so it's probably my device.
(However, if it is it's fine, since I do have working twrp.)
Does this build require an updated bootloader to allow access to the "recovery" partition?
I've got a T3 with a successfully unlocked bootloader, but fastboot gives an error (something about a missing partition table) when I try flashing anything to recovery.
Google tells me that Sony released an updated bootloader some time ago which ought to make a recovery partition available, but I cannot find any active links or instructions for downloading and installing it anywhere,
Don't know

In order to flash recovery, you first need to download and install the Emma flashtool and restore your phone through it. That will add a recovery partition so you can flash twrp. (The Emma flash tool supports only the D5103 model of the T3 as far as I know)
I tink you will have the same as the eagle (m2) device, you need to update your bootloader and then flash recovery...

Hi
I'm playing with my old Xperia T3 recently and I was able to unlock bootloader and install your TWRP on my device. I'm able to boot into recovery with the method you described. But since my power buton is in a quite bad condition, I'm looking for another way to boot into twrp. I rooted my Xperia with Magisk and I tried to enter recovery from it, but the phone just rebooted. The same happend when I tried to enter recovery from terminal. What can be the cause? Is there any other reliable way to boot into your twrp?
Cheers

Maybe you can try by holding down the volume down button when rebooting, it may work.
In other case, I think the only option is fixing the button

Hello community!!
This is my first post here ^^
So I'm trying to root my g3412. After struggling to find drivers for S1 Fastboot, I successfully unlocked my bootloader (via Flashtool) . The only thing left is to flash the TWRP recovery and root it.
But I'm experiencing some weird problems.
When I'm trying to flash the recovery using ADB everything seems ok but when i try to turn on my phone it bootloops between the "your phone cannot be trusted" message and the Sony logo. After i freaked out for a couple of hours i found out that the only way to overcome this loop is to flash a fresh stock rom via FlashTool.
I'm back at step 1 and i can't really find a way to flash the recovery so i can continue my rooting process..
Also I think i found out while searching that g3412 doesn't have a stock recovery, so i guess that has to be considered as well.
Any ideas??
Thank you all in advance!!
You better change your handset...
Well i'm sorry to say but you can't root xperia xa1 plus,. the reason is there is no working TWRP for this mobile... I've tried almost every boot img on internet, none of them worked.... you better change your handset.. as there will be no TWRP img in future...
