help me, how do I reboot in recovery? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
For many days I have been sitting here and read and read and read trying to reboot my phone into recovery mode, I have not succeeded in this, can someone explain how I should do in a simple way?, my phone is rooted and have unlocked boat loader, can I install clockwork fashion?, and how do I do that?
The reason why I want to be able to reboot in recovery mode is that I have tried the "kitchen" here!

Install Doom's kernel and press back buton at boot when the lights light up to enter recovery.

i think you should press on the volume down(a few times) key when you reboot youre device and see the animation.

Hold down volume - key when you phone boots up and it works too.
Anyway you need flash xperia recovery. This is simple and use search...

To use the CMW on a Stock ROM you will need to have Un-Locked Bootloader and run the RecoveryArc.img from the Computer, but if you use a Custom Kernel such as DoomKernel, or a Custom ROM such as CyanogenMod it comes as Standard. You can find the RecoveryArc.img HERE

Hi
What means with custom kernell?,the data that already exits on my phone do I have to wipe that when I install a custom kernel?, do you mean clockworkmode when you say that it come as standard?
Don´t I need to take a backup on my "kernel" that I have in my phone now?

[Q] My incredibly stupid CWM question

So I just rooted my phone thanks to Ash and Mills, but now I have an incredibly stupid question to ask about cwm...
what button combo do I have to press in order to access it on the phones start up?
I tried searching the forums, but maybe I missed an obvious post. Don't be too harsh on me!
I am in the same boat, I have gone in to fastboot and with the android SDK used the adb shell and reboot recover and will not boot to CWM. I know that i am rooted as I am able to remove apps that are stock from verizon.
The kernels which have embedded CWM are not fully functional on the R800x. There is a CWM recovery image which you can use with the command :
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
You mustn't flash it as you'd flash a normal kernel, as it will brick your phone (it's not a kernel, it's just the recovery!). Until you get a kernel with embedded recovery which works as it ought to,, you can use that for CWM.
I thought Doom's kernel had it embedded and therefore there would be a way to boot into it... obviously I was wrong though haha.
Thanks for the reply!

doomlords kernel does, if you are using doomlords kernel, power the device off, when off press the power button to turn on, then keep tapping back till the device boots into recovery..... but like Logseman becareful AND DO NOT FLASH BINARYS RECOVERY.IMG

Search these forums for what is called recoveryPLAY.img and you need to fastboot flash that.
The command prompt should be fastboot flash boot recoveryPLAY.img
NO! That is wrong! If he flashes recoveryPLAY.img, he'll brick the phone! Come on, Binary says it himself!!!

Please DO NOT FLASH! This recovery is designed to work just as recovery, if you flash it to your device it will NOT boot system anymore!

Flash recoveryPLAY.img and you will corrupt /boot end up with bad blocks and brick your phone, you've been warned by both of us!

Never wanna flash CWM. Always ALWAYS boot it. Binary said himself that ur f*cked if you flash it lol.
You aren't f***ed if you flash it, but the only thing then, that will start is the recovery menu !
Already tried it out, it's just because it's an entire "only recovery kernel".

[Q] Question - Recovery Mode without WCM

I just re-lock the bootloader and i removed the root using nextoolkit.
and before that, i didnt put CWM in my nexus.
anyway, i was looking at fastboot mode, and tried to enter de recovery mode without CWM... when i did so, it just apeared a kind of "android error" with a exclamtion mark. the buttons were freezed and i couldnt do anything. so i waited 5 minutes and it did a automatically reboot
-why my recovery mode showed this "android error"?
-what purpose of a recovery mode without CWM?
-recovery mode only works on root devices?
-did i do anything that can cause me problems by entering the recovery mode and waiting those 5 minutes?
Thank you
The Android with the exclamation mark is the stock recovery.
Stock recovery is useful, but not quite as useful as CWM or TWRP because it doesn't let you flash ROMs or mods, etc.. Stock still lets you do a factory data reset and a few other things.
Recovery works on stock devices (necessarily), but you need to be unlocked to flash a custom recovery and use those advanced features that the custom recoveries offer.

You should be able to navigate the couple options with the volume keys and power button. Its likely its working just fine and you didn't know how to work it.

That's the stock recovery screen.
Also, this is the Galaxy Nexus forum. You should post and keep posting in the Nexus S forum. And don't cross post...

i have a galaxy NEXUS, but the image i found was nexus S (but the problem is the same)
i found this in another forum, and every body sad it works:
"1. flash that through fastboot, that is the cwm for lte
2. reboot phone,then find the file named /system/recovery-from-boot.p and either rename it to '1recovery-from-boot.p' without the quotes or delete it, (i renamed it)
3. reboot into fastboot mode and then chose recovery, you can then make backups or whatever with out the dead android guy with the red triangle containing the exclamation
i didnt make this up just followed the directions in the above mentioned thread good luck !!!!"
I found the "recovery-from-boot.p" but i couldnt delete it because is in system folder? only with root acces its possible to delete it?

Xperia arc s not booting after flashing custom rom.have i bricked it?

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

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.

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.

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.

Can't fastboot with Xperia ZL

I have a c6506 and can't get into fastboot for the life of me. I have the correct drivers installed on my Win7 PC (after installing Sony PC companion) and can access the internal storage fine.
When attempting to hold up on the volume button and plugging in the usb cord, the LED turns red for a moment and goes away. Nothing else happens.
Any ideas? I'd like to quickly root this device. I have an unlocked bootloader already.

in any case i used flash tool to go back to stock 4.3

[Q] {Q} Xperia S hard break

Hi,
I've really big problem and i hope that here i get sugestion...
1, I try flash new ROM to my phone. I copy ROM to "SD card" but in wrong version.
After this I into Flashtool get new Kernel and new ver. of TWRecovery. Then I go to recovery and start flashing as every time before...
2, But now I'm in bad sittuation. I can only get into recovery... When i want to go to bootloger, i can't. Every time when I go to bootloger from recovery, i'm back in recovery. Every time is phone reaction the same as I hold power up button+vol. up. And I'm only in recovery.
When I want transfer some ROM to phone, I can't. Cose when I Mount USB massstorage I see phone as "Elementary sys device". I have install ABD device drivers...
Changelog I can't get you, cose it's in "SD card"...
3, Please, Show me "the way" out of this sh*t... I use HTC HD2 few years, all time flashing. Now I use Xperia S for 3 yr. All time flashing. But now I'm in a wrong way ind can't get my phone to standby
Thank you for answers!

Yes, I'm in TWRP, exactly v.2.8.0.1, from topic of your ROM. Bud now I can't connect phone via ABD drivers. I try it via apps and two ways via Commans window.

I need one of two ways... 1,get phone connected with PC via fastboot to flash new kernel, boot.img and at least your ROM
2,get phone connected with PC via mass storage, to get some old ROM, flash it and get to fastboot...

Ah apologies, got lost while replying.
Anyways, lets start from basic. Can You try un-installing and installing the fastboot drivers? Because I suspect that's why You are not able to enter into fastboot mode.

Just a sec, what combination do You use to go into bootloader? Power up+volume up? That is not what Yo do, You disconnect the phone from cable, and then turn off the phone. Then just press volume up, and connect the phone. No other button is needed to be pressed.

Apologies, might have missed out Your quote earlier. So You now have ROM and other stuff in the phone. What problem are You facing Now? Also I would recommend the new released version b14c with kernel from b14d of nAOSP.

simply... I get to bootloader as we wrote last. Then I flash kernel, and phone died. Now I can only charge or see a Sony logo. I can ONLY this now. no buttons helps, no different cable/slot/PC helps... I'M only in charging mod, after turn on only logo see. no TWRP, no bootloger.

So You can't even go into bootloader now? That's weird and also makes this a bit complicated! Because You need to be able to go into bootloader mode to flash a new kernel which has recovery. Hope You are pressing only volume while connecting phone to PC. Drivers are fine as You were able to flash a kernel earlier. Which Kernel did You flash first? If You are able to go into bootloader, then flash this kernel via fastboot mode.

Ok, I flash it. But I really can't into bootloader. If I hold vol button, conn cable only red, charging light... Now I really don't know what else.

So You were able to flash the kernel I gave? Then You should be able to boot into CWM recovery. The Kernel logo will be of a Android bot.
