Offence aside.

This app requires you to know how to use your phone and thats it.

No need to get your pc talking to your phone in debug mode

this can be quite hard for some ppl especialy if you use pc's at a library or a iCafe ect. or have a PC that has broken bits. or maybe your usb port is broken. i think you get the point.

kindly point me to where these apps do this and i will be more than happy apologise.

Comments like yours are why developers leave phones and never come back. maybe keep that in mind. :) just saying you know.

i will not reply to any more post of this type as it is not what this forum is about! I Kindly ask that you pm me if you have any more to say so we can keep this thread clean.

Thanks Pvy.

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] papayayoghurt:
Is it so right?

Hello

Can i do this so?

1. Download this App

2. Press Install CWM

3. Shut down phone

4. Press backkey while booting

5. I am in recovery.

Is this right?

Sorry for my English, i am from Austria
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] phoneyericsson:
Well if you have the 2011 Mini (ST15i) then to get into CWM, keep pressing the:

DOWN VOLUME BUTTON

again and again and again until it comes up.

The older 2010 Mini uses the back button if I remember correctly.

As I mentioned, if anyone has trouble installing CWM, make sure you try this...it works perfectly and the options in the app are great! :D

Now I wanna try some tweaks for memory and cpu..if possible can u suggest some which will work with this installer...
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] captain67:
The only CPU tweak you can do with a locked bootloader is changing clock settings with setcpu. Anything more advanced requires a custom kernel.

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] pvyParts:
You can get cpu governor modules that Will add custom Kernel coolness to your locked bootloader. Search in your phones development forum

I have just installed version 4 on my Arc. Installed CWM but I cannot get into recovery mode. What ever keys I press it gets stuck at the Sony Ericsson logo.

The same with version 3 ...

... and version 2

I have an LT15i with build number 4.0.2.A.0.42 rooted with locked bootloader.

Any ideas?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] pvyParts:
I need more info. Because you can't give me logs. I need you to check a few things. I am too busy with some personal stuff to help more than this.

Check the naa recovery thread it tells you what files are installed and where they go and what perms they need. If you can check that and me know. Ol if you have them

Also check /cache/recovery/last_log

If it exists post it here so I can see it.

As the app has worked on arc phones alot you appear to be a rouge failure.

Any one who is having issues and has posted please read this and do what I have asked. I will have a look when I can.

Confused why mine boot to it every time

U know why?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] taurus72:
Thanx for the reply.

I have checked all naa's instructions about the installed files and all seem to have the right permissions.

To take it a step further I uninstalled the Xperia CWM Auto-Installer and tried naa's method.

The same thing happens (i.e. no recovery menu). Actually now it does not get stuck on the SE logo but it boots normally ignoring all key presses.

Unfortunately there exists no /cache/recovery/last_log.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] pvyParts:
wiggle your finger on the screen see if that boots it into recovery for me.

pvy.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] iridaki:
Because you are using DoomKernel and not stock kernel. So this command is not for everybody and since this thread is about an app for recovery in locked bootloaders, it is generally futile.

But I'm not though doom dont make Neo kernels!

But pvy say it don't work so it must not work so we leave it like that

This is not touch recovery. as i did not make this recovery only the App. ( why reinvent the wheel ) ATM the only touch recoveries are built into kernels ( as far as i know )

Who are you implying that to Mr. Frankenstein ?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] pvyParts:
can you tell me step by step what you have done,

eg backup 2.3.4 rom,

flash ICS oficail

then reflash rooted firmware

install CWM

then try to restore backup but leads to bootloop?

i can confirm that this works i have done it twice today :P

Ignor it... no need to poke the bear. also no need for those sort of comments.

Pvy.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Anicane:
What i have done is, yesterday i tried to flash this new ICS official into my Arc ( with locked bootloader), i got the same error as others who got Arc. After that used SEUS to go back to GB, rooted it, installed CWM, when i shutdown my phone ( does not have restart mode yet), at the Sony Ericsson logo when i press any key to enter into CWM mode,it just stops at sony logo like forever, i have tried re flashing GB and installing CWM again and again same result. By the way each time i have used SEUS to repair.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] pvyParts:
ok. did you use this app to install CWM? or a different one (just making sure) where did you get the app from market or SDCARD, OP?

did you use this App last time you had CWM?

Pvy.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Anicane:
Yea, Ofc. i used this app. i have it in my box account, plus i did try downloading from market too but i end up with same result.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] pvyParts:
ok only thing i can think of is to try to use a different method for installing OR, after you have installed and before you reboot check all the files are ok in system

there are 4

system/bin/chargemon -> should be around 900 bytes, 755 perms

system/bin/charger -> should be around 57 k, 755 perms

system/bin/recovery.tar -> should be around 1.8 mb, 755 perms

system/xbin/sh -> should be about 715k, 755 perms

i think your problem will be in the chargemon but i cant comment without some more info.

how did you root and what firmware are you flashing? (what firmware does SEUS give you)

Pvy.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Anicane:
Well i rooted my Arc using zergrush's expolit which Doomlord has made, and the firmware that SEUS gives me is 0.42.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] jjkkyu:
Try reflash your phone with Flashtool.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Anicane:
Done that too end up with same thing. I have reflashed with Flashtool and hardreset than repaired with SEUS nothing changed

But is there any other way to restore the backup i have taken =?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Anicane:
I check those files, and they seem to be ok,i mean around those size you mentioned, is there any other way i can still CWM =?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] ImaKitch:

I just wanted to say thanks as I needed a way to get back to an old ROM which had my data for apps on it, but had relocked my PLAY's bootloader, and also got to original ROM, and Kernel so having this allowed for me to get back to clockwork mod recovery to fix it, Thanks so much,
