Looking for the latest CWM version available for Xperia Mini Pro 10

Hi folks, I would like to install the [KK_4.4.2] PHD rom on a Xperia Mini Pro 10 but I can't seem to find a link to download a compatible version of CWM , my device is on stock 4.0 ICS but it's rooted and I was able to install an older version of CWM on it only which gave me an error (error 7) when I tried to instal KK. I already asked on the ROM thread however the developer did not respond to it yet.
Any help finding the download link and instructions on how to install it is much appreciated.
Thanks!

hey the rom you want to install needs custom kernel. (its inside zip) all custom kernel have recovery INSIDE. so dont worry about CWM, just flash that kernel 1st

Hi buddy, I checked the zip contents and couldn't find "boot.img" inside, wasn't that supposed to be the kernal containing CWM?

Stop everything that you are doing.
You are in the wrong forum. Installing this ROM will brick your device for good. This forum has all the stuff for Xperia Arc phone, you don't have it so you shouldn't be here at all.

Switch your recovery to TWRP 2.6.3.2 or 2.7.0. You can find links to either of them in my signature. Click on jelly Kat FAQ version 4&5 and you'll find links to TWRP.Download the zip file of TWRP recovery and flash it using your existing philz recovery and then try flashing the DN3 ROM. BTW I've been using their V5+ version and was happy with it. Their latest release is V5.2 so give it a try. The release you are trying to flash is Jelly Bean version not Kit Kat version.

You mean downgrade from kitkat to jellybean,since kitkat is newer to jellybean.Yes you can go back and forth between Kitkat and Jellybean custom ROM whenever you like.

It's not unusual for that entry in the build.prop to be blank, and shouldn't cause issues. I think the default there should be '11 11', though having it blank should be fine (pretty certain).
> Working perfect on stock based rom
Which roms are you flashing that are giving you problems? Many of the e980 roms are bugged out in various ways, maybe it's just a quirk of the one(s) you flashed? I had a similar problem recently, wifi just would *not* stay enabled, would not behave. I don't remember which rom it was though; I flash too much.
You've flashed the Kitkat 20g modem, yes? If all else flails, you could always flash back to Kitkat stock and start over, that's guaranteed to tell you whether its a hardware or software problem (if it persists after that: hardward, got to be).

Booyah: E980 20g Kitkat TOT.
Also, with Lollipop roms, I don't think any of them are totally stable or functionally 100% yet, so that's not a place to go if you want stuff to work. There's plenty of nice Kitkat roms like PAC-rom or Carbon-Rom is you want stability and want for your phone to work fully (but thats no fun! ).

Oh, no, you misunderstood: you don't use the CWM, you only install it and then quickly install *over* it with one of Freegee's recoveries. Never use the Sphinx CWM, as you'll get errors when you go to flash roms. You only insatll the Sphinx CWM so that Freegee will recognize your device and function, it's only a stepping stone to Freegee, not a recovery you should use on its own.
And, in light of recent developments on the TWRP 2.8 front, I'd say give that a try instead. It mounts your external SD just fine. THe only things I've flashed with it are BlissPop builds and Gapps, but all without an issue yet. Go for the one with the Play theme and enjoy its gorgeous colors.
Thanks buddy.. Freegee recognized my device and installed cwm succesfully

Welcome to the VZN M7 Forums! I have successfully used sunshine to unlock my BL on Android 4.4.3. I did a lot of research on which recovery I wanted to use. I had in the past on my Motorola RAZR and Droid4. I tried CWM 1st. Then found out that I had a possibility of loosing root. Out with CWM and in with TWRP. I made backups of my stock rooted phone. Then I installed a deodexed (debloated) KitKat ROM. I got a noticeable performance response. Less lag. I then looked into kernels. I chose ElementalX for the sheer power control it gives me. But, the ROM I was using wasn't supporting the changes I was making. Solution? I decided to do a full format and fresh install for ViperROM and ElementalX kernel. Also, just bought the EX kernel app.
Current setup:
Current TWRP Recovery
EX Kernel 18.0
ViperROM 7.0.2
Woo that ex kernel looks nice. Do you know a ruu I could use to update my firmware to use those an possibly a link to the current twrp? I can't wait to use dt2w.

I only recommend going to either 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 since a lot of the M7 owners who have updated to Lollipop are experiencing issues of some sort.

I also advise purchasing the EX Kernel App manager if you really like the Kernel features. This way you dont have to reboot everytime you want to change a parameter

Yes i mean trickster mod. Actually i have a very little knowledge about kernels so it would be better for you to ask someone else and as for the RUU , I would recommend the lollipop RUU because it has the latest firmware otherwise you can use that 4.4.3. You can even flash the firmware only zip the first link in my previous post.
Uh well i installed the 4.4.3 ruu and flashed twrp then tried to install the ex kernel but it boot loops am i doing something wrong?

Yes for using that ex kernel you have to update to lollipop version it wont work on 4.4.3 its in the description of that kernel. If you want to use 4.4.3 only try to use some other kernel.

Yup i'm on 6.22.605.3 i used the official ota to update just downloaded the two zip files and flashed them in stock recovery. I'm noticing significant lag and hanging problem since i updated to lollipop. I'm also thinking to downgrade to 4.4.3 using the S-ON RUU i like to use pure stock but i have s-off and bootloader unlocked so that i can downgrade anytime. Remeber one thing never S-On your device a number of people did that and now they have bricked phone. Good luck happy flashing :good:
Thanks for the info. Gana try downgrading after I drink a gallon of coffee.

Try to erase cahce and then reboot again if that doesn't work then either problem is with the sense version or somthing else.
Looks like i need to flash a insecure kernel first then flash ex kernel. Also you know where to get the most recent version of ex kernel for kk?

You can't flash the GSM version of ElementalX on a Verizon m7.
You can look for latest ported version in Verizon m7 original development section.
I forget what the last version posted was, as I port and modify my own...but I'm pretty sure Kitkat is there.
