Is your phone bootkoader unlocked?
If so then flash recovery( you find it development section)
And then you abel to boot recovery.

Hi
No, I do not think it is unlocked, how do I check that?, it is not unlocked, what do I do to start it in recovery?

to check the bootloader
go to the dial pad and write *#*#7378423#*#*
go to Service info>Configuration
you will see it at the bottom...

You need to fastboot flash the ROM's boot.img. As every unlock thread says, you need to do so for every time you flash a ROM.

Re-flash recovery and rom/kernel, should help
I guess you have not flashed the correct kernel. Download the correct kernel from the thread of the ROM and then flash it via fastboot.
This will probably fix it.

[Q] Bootloader question

Once my bootloader is already unlocked (I have a custom ROM..) is there any way to re-check my bootloader status via some app or *#*# code? like the systeminfo you had with *#*#737 blah blah.
Why you want to re-check? You already know your bootloader is unlocked right!?
Still if you need to confirm. You can always try using fastboot mode to see if your bootloader is unlocked or not.
One suggestion create a thread for your questions arc q&a section filled with your questions

Flash custom kernel. If it finishes successfully, then it is unlocked. If it fails (most of the times, it gives ERROR: Device must be rooted first), then it is locked.

Nope, but your apps will be erased using the RUU. So use the backup if you want to keep them.

I did that....
Had to flash the stock again root install cwm again Rom. But it is the same everytime, evn aftr flashing kernel it always dead. I was trying to instsll another Rom and thn it went to brick mode then aftr lot of search I found to flash stock Rom so downloaded ftf of. 96 an then flashed it started working again I did rooting and installation of cwm again new Rom and it is going on and on right now im using stock Rom frm Sony and it is rooted had not gone further.
How do I solve this now?
so means your phone isn't dead ,so after you flash can't boot, I think you had better to check if you are unlock your boot loap or not, If you have unlocked, I think need to flash new boot for your rom, not only kernel.

right now ,you can flash customer rom,just choice what you want from the furom.Just before you flash the rom,follow the information which the developer said.
Another way is to get to customer service center.
