I'm pretty sure you're doing some mistake in installing as I was able to use it perfectly when I was on stock ICS(I now moved to MIUIv4)....do one thing try once again with script method because I mostly used to install with it....before connecting your phone with computer make sure u've:

(1) installed adb drivers for ur device using Android SDK

(2) enable "USB DEBUGGING" from (Menu\Settings\Developer Options\Development)

(3) enable "UNKNOWN SOURCES" from (Menu\Settings\Security)

(4) [OPTIONAL] increase screen timeout to 10 minutes

(5) connect USB cable to PHONE in MTP mode and then connect to PC

(6) skip "PC Companion Software" prompt on device

if unluckily above method don't work then you need to have do it manually by copy-pasting files using any file manager with root permission I use ES file explorer....from options mount root as writable....then copy "chargemon1" "chargemon2" "cwm-rec" "recovery.tar" in /system/bin and "su" in /system/xbin and change ALL file permission to 755 like screenshot given on first page.....

Hope now you'll be able to install....

not working with ics. I tried everything. when i want to go into recovery mode! It gets stuck in Sony Logo!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] netho25:
Thanks for answering... Now i tell you, i've tried both above methods unsuccessfully many times :mad: ,I dont know why its not working for me but i can see that im not the only one with this problem :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] vvvvv5:
Can't guess what's wrong with it....what I recommend you is try any of these kernels 1 or 2 both of these have built in CWM hence there is no need to copy paste files to OS anymore....I'm currently using NightElf one; you can choose any of those both works perfectly on ICS, as I tried both....hope this time it works.... :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] netho25:
Thanks, But how do i change my kernel? Do i need to unlock my bootloader? I don't wanna do that becouse of my warranty :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] vvvvv5:
Yes you'll NEED unlocked bootloader....and may be because of this only CWM is not working....what you can do now is unlock your bootloader for now and later when you need to go to Sony SC that time you can unlock it with the methods given here and here....

One thing leme clear you currently I've my bootlocker unlocked with method given officially here but I haven't tried relocking it yet with the methods given above....it's all YOUR choice if you want to unlock you BL to taste other custom ROM, Kernels and CWM.... :rolleyes:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] netho25:
Uhmm I don't know man, Anyway, Thanks Maybe later i decide to Unlock my BL :(

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] JimMorrison723:
HELP!

I wanted to update my neo to official ics, but i always got error in pcc. I thought it is because i installed some mod: notification toggles and a memory raiser. I have a nand backup, só i decided to restore that, but i cant reboot into recovery!!!! I have tried it with flashtool, cwm auto installer, but it just keep booting normally! I reinstalled cwm in cwm auto installer but it didnt help... Plz somebody tell me what should i do. I have bl unlocked.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] wiidbzxt:
Can somebody help me? I pushed the app manually since the auto-installer .apk wouldn't install cwm on my MK16a and the pc software wasn't instaling it neither.

Now the auto-installer apk says I have CWM installed, but I just can't get into recovery mode, everytime I turn the phone on and press the volume down key on the "sony" logo, nothing happens.

Did you change the permissions correctly??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] maRRRco89:

how can I fix it? I think is a bug
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] netho25:
I have the same problem here on xperia neo! :C
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] BombayBoy:
Looks like a problem with chargemon.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] t0mm13b:
Hate to say this, but why use this as an apk and not have it residing in the boot?

That sounds lame, why is there no recovery partition on it?

Its not a real CWM as its an apk just sitting there within the /system partition.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Elessar76:
Because people with locked bootloader can't access to boot partition. This is why we can't install kernels with bl locked or like in other phones. More than a full CWM is only a "solution" for this people.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] t0mm13b:
Right, what about unlocked bootloader?

Are you telling me, there's no recovery partition in there? :eek:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] stab2:
Hi

Got Neo V nd on ICS stock version from Sony PC Companion nd on Locked Bootloader.

I did the whole process but as u said i cannot go into recovery, i did the process (2. press the power button & quickly start pressing the VOLUME DOWN button untill RECOVERY appears) but i couldn't go into recovery even, now please look into the error report i have attached of cmd where in last in says "su not found" is this the problem im not going into recovery ! cuz i have loaded and installed the CWM for Xperia from the market as the link is given in the 1st thread, but after pushing the files frm install-cwm1, when i open the CWM it has crosses on all options, that means what i think is cuz the files are not pushed correctly?

Please help im on this issue since past 4 days continues but to no avail, im all doing it just cuz i need to bypass the proximity sensors of light in the device, i want it bright like Arc S nd wanted to get the control in my hand !

Please Help

If not working, use other methods from first post.

Thank you.

But because i have already thanked 8 people today ( including you)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
I never used that app, as some people said it's working, and some said it's not working. I guess they didn't try tapping :)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
None.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] a1b2c99:
So whats the exact method of booting into recovery. Volume key or screen taping ?

The volume key didn't worked for me.

I m on Neo V with stock ICS and locked BL.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Depends which version from fist post you pick.

Tapping, volume down, or back key.

rootet ARC, BL locked, I want to use the stock charger routines

I read all 3 methods from the first post ...

1. is there any that does not modify the charger routines

2. or which of those 3 just links into the boot process and starts the stock charger routine (I think the manual one does it this way - not sure)

3. Which method does ROM Manager use ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] gggg:
CPU frequency prob ?

Only the .cmd methode, uses the original chargemon > so its universal (GB/ICS), but the Script seems to set CPU-Frequeny:

echo 1024000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
echo 245000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq

but I think ARC and ARC S have different max. frequency ??? Who knows about that ??

Update: I tried it, CPU still on 1,4 ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] gggg:
- Are all methods from post #1 creating the same type of backup (sama dirs) ?

- is it a so called nandroide backup ?

- as this backup does not seem to backup all files ... is there another backup doing a real image or at least save all files ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Hoshigami:
im use xperia neo l wit ics and rooted

#UPDATE: This method wrks perfectly on ICS. Tried on my own and also tested by othrs

Do NOT use this recovery if you are not in Stock 2.3 firmware.

wich one is correct

ics can use it ora only gb stock rom

I am planning to buy an unlocked Xperia Neo. But there are two version MT15a and MT15i, for US version and International version, respectively.

Thank you so much!

It's on page 6 of this document:

http://dl-www.sonyericsson.com/cws/download/1/922/664/1315210962/neo_WP_6.pdf

If the chargers are the same depends on where you buy it. It will be sold with a British charger if you buy it in the UK, but the MT15a will likely have an American charger.

I have an unlocked MT15a because i live in Latin america, and those are the bands that works over here, however, i'm going to spain for three months, and i was wondering if i could change the 3g bands on my device to work with the european bands. or in other words, turn my MT15a device to an MA15i.

My previous device was a Motorola Milestone, and this was possible via openrecovery.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] tinyXperia:
I think my #2 post is also relevant for you, search if they use the one of the supported frequencies by MT15a in Spain
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] arquillos:
I think it will work. In Spain we use the 900/1800 band

From Wiki:

"Africa, Europe, Middle East and Asia

In Africa, Europe, Middle East and Asia, most of the providers use 900 MHz and 1800 MHz bands. GSM-900 is most widely used. Fewer operators use DCS-1800 and GSM-1800. A dual-band 900/1800 phone is required to be compatible with almost all operators. At least the GSM-900 band must be supported in order to be compatible with many operators."

MTD roms tend to do that's particually in lower service areas. It is highly annoying (its a known issue, with no fix yet).

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electric bill:
It's a common problem on fascinate/captivate. Doesn't seem to matter which ROM/kernel. Some people claim that it's an issue with moisture getting into the phone and that putting it in a bag with desiccant (like rice) overnight cures it. Your mileage may vary.

We have four fascinates in my family and they all do it. I'm on my third and they've all had the same problem. Two are on stock ED05 and two are on pwgb.

I'd like to troubleshoot it but I'm still working on getting a system up and running for building the kernel.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hesh.monster:
Has happened to mine since day one. When it starts acting up i turn off the screen and then back on but dont unlock it. Then run my finger across then soft keys a few times back and forth and it usually snaps out of it for a bit.

I have heard somewhere that it may be caused by build up of oils on the keys.....but whatever lol

So many ignorant and sexist assumptions here, it's disgusting. Some of you guys are downright pathetic.

OP, talk it out with your girlfriend, if she's genuinely paranoid, figure out the root of the paranoia, and explain to her carefully how there is nothing you can "monitor", and doing so is illegal anyway.

Just because someone is paranoid about privacy doesn't mean they have something to hide, especially when it could be that the person in question is new to the idea of a smartphone (especially a smartphone that powerful and versatile).

Unless her worries are truly causing friction in your relationship, if she is still paranoid, just let it go.
[HTC EVO 3D] tnadawg89:
She was paranoid because she was talking to someone else and trying to hide it, therefore I left and am moving on.
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
I'm sorry to hear that, but that doesn't quite change what I said before; there's no need to assume every woman that is worried about privacy is a whore. That's just disgusting sexism, regardless of whether or not one thinks it's always true.
