i have heard that in super user app there is a survival mode which prevents ur root access if u r updating ur device so is there any need of turning that option ON or i can simply update it without doing that...

I suggest u not to update via ur phone...dl the update file from the link below and flash that zip file through CWM recovery.. If the recovery asks you to fix the Superuser, let it fix it...It worked for me..Happy Flashing..

Well, just flash CWM Recovery using Nokia X Flasher, not manager.
Download CWM Recovery from Android Development Section. And Nokia X Flasher from there too.

>Put update.zip (1.34 mb) in your internal sdcard and boot under recovery.
>Select reinstall package option. Update.zip will get installed and phone will reboot.

how did you get in this trouble what is your firmware?
now it seems you don't have 3e problem but 3-buttons problem read above link search in page for "3-button"
try to enter recovery by adb tool
Code:
adb reboot recovery
after this quickly remove usb cable from phone
If you tray to install custom ROM
1. Download from market "ROM Manager"
2. Install "ClockworkMod Recovery" or "AmonRa" (have it into ROM Manager)
3. Go to XDA Search and find your phone into forum and find good custom ROM.
4. Download it and paste it to SD card of your phone
5. Power Off phone and press "Home" button + "Power" button to get into Recovery mod and from them you will be ably to install new ROMs ;]
Thanks
I did.
At this point I just want the phone back to ANDROID Ginergerbread OS and operational.

well read this thread as I said i.e. read post #3 and follow instruction this will modify/ patch your recovery so you can access it but you need a Windows machine also you can try to flash back to 2.1 stock rom and follow instructions on post #1 you need a Windows machine...also if you need stock roms for your phone look at
this thread or just enter sammobile and enter "897" as search string you get stock 2.1 rom (you need subscription to download)

search this. clockwork mod recovery for xperia s in xda. It will take you to cwm by doomlord. follow the steps there. Installation of cwm is different for xperia phones. There is no separate recovery partition. As of now Doomlord has compiled a nice cwm recovery for xperia s and just follow the instructions there and flash the kernel.elf file as per the instructions given there
I'm using Xperia S, bootloader unlocked and rooted using FlashTool.
I have installed RecoverX tool and it runs without problems. However, I'm not able to get into the recovery mode. Why??

Well I think you can just flash stock recovery back before you do that make a backup with twrp and if you have removed system apps or froze them restore them before flashing stock recovery back & then apply the updates if that is successful just flash twrp back

Well you either need to find your stock rom Inc stock recovery if it's not there you could ask for it on the thread & at some point someone might upload it. Take it you never made a stock Backup before unlocking etc.

Not being funny there is plenty of guides on xda to help you. If you don't know if you have s-off you shouldn't even attempt the Adb commands or flashing anything as you could end up with a expensive paper weight. Before you do anything else read the XDA threads on the m8

Well other option is flashing through nokia x flasher is the fastest and easiest for noobs.
Search the forum, you would find the thread.
Just go to download mode,,,by pressing volume down+ power button for 20 seconds...flasher would show your device name...just flash twrp recovery...
then reboot to recovery and install supersu zip...
And you are done.
Thanks bro..i'll try it again. Wish me luck.
I flash it with x flasher with rom v.1.2.4.1 and successs.and then i root again and install google playstore with noxia x tool kit.and done success
