[Q] Is there a way to boot up my Sony Xperia Tipo in recovery mode? - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

My xperia tipo smartphone won't boot up . I think this has to do with the build.prop file which is in the system directory. In an attempt to make my phone run Modern Combat 2, I downloaded a custom build.prop file from here and replaced it with the original one (I made a backup first in the sd card directory). Then I tried to reboot my phone, but now it won't boot . It only shows me the sony logo and stays there. Even after waiting an hour, still nothing. I've tried many ways to boot my xperia tipo in recovery mode, like holding down power button and Vol Up, or by pressing the screen repeatendly after the sony logo appears and MANY MORE, but no luck. I'M SO PISSED WITH MYSELF! Can anyone help?

You could maybe try to install the stock rom over it. Flashtool + *.tft rom.

Sony phones do not have stock recovery, so unless you had installed cwm you don't have any recovery

WORKED!
Thanks a lot guys, I reflashed my firmware with flashtool and it worked
BTW, I aslo had a live chat with a SONY programmer and he told me that there was no fix

Remove battery from the device for 10-15 mins... Than put it in and directly put it in flashboot mode... Dont try to turn it on... Than you'll be able to reflash...

THIS THREAD IS SO OLD! I WAS A NEWBIE AT ANDROID PHONES BACK THEN. NOW PRO
When you flash recovery with recoverx, you can't boot up into recovery when in stock kernel. So flash a kernel (i use vegeance) through flashtool, and when u boot up your phone, when the led light turns pink, press vol up/down a few times.
There you go!

Um, have you tried holding up the volume button and plugging in ur phone to the pc? If you do it correctly, a blue light will appear at the top right of the phone. Then download the desired firmware, and flash it using flashtool. If you have problems ask me, I'll be happy to help

If you have an xperia smartphone, you can go on "phone" and type *#*#7378423#*#*. A service menu will come up if you typed it right. Then go to "service info" > "customization" and then search for "bootloader unlock allowed". If that says yes, you can unlock it. If it says no or it doesn't exist, then you can't do it.

Sony Tipo ST21i went weird

Hello Guys. Today i wanted to install Walkman Player for my tipo. My friend sent me some APKs. I install CWM to my Tipo and installed those APKs using CWM. But when i rebooted the device, the ICS was changed. This ICS looked like the ICS of XPERIA U and all(Updates Ones). I tried to Factory reset but it didnt work. I had done backup using TITANIUM. Even restoring it, i couldnt get back my Tipo ICS. Is there any way to Completely Reset back again it was normal?
Guys please somebody REPLY! The phone looks very ugly. Is there some way that i can get back my original ROM? Please do tell me what other choice do i have? This is how its looking.
Download flashtool and ftf, flash it to stock and learn to use 'search' .
This advice is given in almost all unbrick threads , to restore to stock.

ok listen...can you flash stock.ftf rom to your tipo? just download flashtool (google it) and find stock.ftf from general section...one other way is to flash vergeance kernel with flashtool, enter cwm and flash a rom from android development (or cm10 from original android development) if you dont understand something tell me....
P.S. after you flashed stock rom or vergeance kernel turn on your phone and put charger to see if it charging

it seems that you have wrong header.sin or you didn't enter the flashmode properly. make sure you get notice 'the device is plugged with flashmode' or something like that when you plug in the usb to your pc. to fix the header.sin issue you'll need the correct one. you can find it on the same thread where you got your tft.

i think that ico98 dont know how to fix header.sin and its better to flash a kernel from fastboot...its more easy...do you agree?
Sent from my Xperia Tipo using xda app-developers app
I'm not sure about that. he didn't give any specific info about how messed up his system is. if he install any stock ICS based rom (without any custom kernel) his problem mostly could be fixed by reflashing the rom and wipe the data. flashing a kernel won't fix this issue. aside from that scenario, there are several more scenario i.e:
1 he could have install a JB based rom then he install a ICS rom, completely dead. need to flash complete tft or reflash JB rom and wipe data.
2 ICS rom with custom ICS kernel. can be fixed by flash a stock kernel
3 etc etc...there are a lot of scenario
my main point is that flashing a kernel doesn't always fix anything. in most cases, I only suggest that step for more advanced user. without enough data about the system condition flashing a complete tft will be a general and always working method.
anyway, before we do any 'flash' thing, IMO wipe data might be a good choice. most new member forget about that important step and ended up with a bricked device.
ok then...i said to flash kernel and to choose a custom rom (gimlo, paradox etc) but if ico98 download again ftf file will he have this problem again? (header.sin)
P.S. sometimes i forgot to wipe system and data when i am to cm10 and i want to go back to ics and the only problem i have is some apps to force close....no brick only fc
P.S.2 i installed kernels from xperia mini pro and insecure kernel E dual and my phone didnt brick, just not boot...maybe my phone has immunity at brick ahahahahahahaha

well...it doesn't means that your system is immune. you're just lucky enough to never experienced a hardbrick.

No boot after unlocking bootloader

Hi everybody ,
I have tried to unlock the bootloader on my xperia L but something went wrong. After unlocking the bootlader the device won't boot up the OS and is stuck on the loading screen (coloured waves after SONY XPERIA first screen).
My device configuration:
4.1.2 JB
C2105
15.0.A.2.17
I have installed fastboot by andorid SDK manager and the flashtool drivers (fastboot and flashtool driver) and i have obtained the bootloader unlock key from http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ typing the IMEI number.
On the command prompt window I have typed: "fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY" (obviously with my unlock KEY) and when the process was over a message appeared "Okay, finished [time]".
Unfortunately when I reboted the device the OS didn't boot up and is currently stuck on on the loading screen with the coloured waves.
What's the problem? How can i fix it?
Thanks in advance,
LcK.
After you unlock your bootloader, you have to flash the stock ROM again. Your bootloaders will still be unlocked, but it's the way it is, and probably said 10000 times in the unlock bootloader thread.

[Xperia M][CWM][Unlocked BL]C1905 15.1.C.1.17 stock kernel with CWM (dirty)

This release is deprecated by a new release.
Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2480556
I just packed a (dirty) flashable boot image for the Xperia M (C1905), for unlocked bootloader.
This image contains the kernel from Build 15.1.C.1.17 (C1905), and modified stock ramdisk. I don't know how other devs pack their kernel with recovery but this is how I just get it done.
Don't try it with C1904 yet!
To check the model of your Xperia M, go to settings > about phone. "Model" should show either C1904 or C1905. If it says C1905, you can proceed, but if not, stand back.
If you are really brave and wouldn't mind losing all your data and need to reflash with Sony Update Service, you can try with your C1904 and please kindly report your results back.
Please backup your data before proceeding! I am not responsible for any data loss!
I've tried on my own Xperia M (C1905) and it sort of worked, but I haven't tried any of the functions. You are warned!
** You need unlocked bootloader and busybox installed to use this. Before you unlock the bootloader, you need to backup all your data and remove the SD card because everything will be deleted! **
Known problems:
Screen shifts by half when screen updates
USB does not work at all
If USB cable is connected when trying to enter recovery, it will freeze and you need to remove the battery
Install instructions (skip to step 5 if you already unlocked bootloader, rooted and installed busybox):
Install the latest Android SDK platform tools on your computer.
Root and install busybox: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2457174
busybox is mandatory for this to work!
Backup TA partition: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598 (do this if you want to relock in the far future)
Unlock bootloader: All data will be lost! SD card will be formatted!
Download the attached zip and extract the boot image.
Power off your Xperia M, hold the Volume Up button and connect USB cable, release button when blue LED is on.
Execute:
Code:
fastboot flash boot
Wait for it to show finished.
Disconnect USB cable.
Boot instructions:
Power off your Xperia M.
Disconnect USB!!!
Power on by holding the power button. Your Xperia M should vibrate once like normal boot
You should feel a second vibration. When you feel it, press Volume Up once (no need to hold down).
You should feel another vibration.
You have booted into CWM!

Actually, I myself prefer AOSP over CM, so if I start developing custom ROMs for this device it has to be AOSP. I wouldn't mind building a clean CWM for this device though.

hi alvinwong, i'll share my experience after i flash this boot.img
first, if i down in menu of cwm the menu seems like sparated (broken), and down again its normal, and if i down again it'll sparated, and so on
two, when i try to backup in last i got an error notif (i forget the specific text but its error notif)
and last, when i try to flash a sound mod to my phone i got bootloop, and when i try to factory reset it still bootloop (I guess after factory reset my phone should be boot normally)
but i appreciate your great work :good:

You have C1904 right? Do you have the latest 15.1.C.1.17 firmware rooted? If you have could you please dump the boot partition so I can check?
As root, execute
Code:
cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p17 > /storage/sdcard0/boot-dump.img
Then upload the boot-dump.img here?
