Don't forget to thank them.
You can flash both *.ftf and *.img files via flahtool
To get to CWM, after power on, when the kernel starts, there usually a short vibrate, push vol down
While in that state, the rest is the same steps as you already have.
Hope this help.
Cheers.

[Q] Live With Walkman

Ok I have a Sony Live With Walkman.I have unlocked the bootloader,rooted my phone and installed and have tried many custom roms on my phone.Every thing works fine but its such a long proceess for me to flash a rom.Every custom rom comes with its own boot.img file i.e. every rom has its own and different kernel.If I flash different kernel and install a different rom it results into a bootloop.It means if I use rom manger to flash a rom it results into bootloop as the kernel installed in it is of current running rom.I want to have a permanent kernel and I cant install kernels using rom manager as its not available for my phone .Steps I use to flash a rom
First I copy the gapps and custom rom zip folder onto sd card
Extract boot.img file from the custom rom on my pc
Open Flashtool
Open recovery my phone and wipe and format data,wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache.
Shut the phone
Connect my phone in fastboot mode by pressin volume buttons
Flastool displays that my device is sucessfully connected in fastboot mode
Click thunder sign in flashtool
Select fastboot mode
Select kernel to flash
Select the boot.img file that I previously extracted from the custom rom file
The kernel is flashed
Then i go into recovery
Again Wipe and format data,Wipe Cache,Wipe Dalvik Cache,.
Install Zip from sd card
Install custom rom zip file and gapps zip file
Installation is done.Then I reboot the phone

[Q] [P780] ROM and CWMs?

Hi all!
I just bought my P780 from china retailer. Turns out the stock ROM doesn't support GSM lower than 2100 MHz. I've rooted my phone, so I'd like to know is the any CWM 6 recovery and how to flash it to the phone?
And is there any link to download another country's ROM so I can use my SIM?
Thanks and best regards.
CWM means clockworkmod recovery.
it does not need to be flashed
to get it,
1)get cwm zip file for your device.(use google)
2)then put that file in root directory of your sdcard
3) boot your phone in recovery mode and select cwm zip file.
then it would start cwm recovery
---------- Post added at 05:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ----------
i think there is no rom for making your sim card usable
please hit THANKS....
I managed to install CWM English using MobileUncle. Is there any ROM I can install via CWM, because the ones n needrom seems to be very difficult.
yes there are many roms available
can u tell me how to use the flashtool from the beginning since it is my first time
it is recommended to take a nandroid backup before this flashing
ok if you need to flash rom from cwm than follow steps :
1) boot in recovery mode
2) wipe data
3) select apply update from sdcard and then select CWM file.
4) after CWM opens select your rom zip file
5) now flashing of new rom will start.
6) wipe data/factory reset in recovery mode only.
7) now reboot your phone.....
rom file is a zip file which can be obtained by searching on google.
***download rom file which is only applicable for your phone*
othervise your phone will brick***

You need to do much for flashing a custom rom..
You need to do a full wipe before flashing a rom not just data.
and you don't need to wipe data/factory reset since flashing a Custom rom will automatically wipe all data.
Also on some phones mostly HTC phones you need to Flash Boot.img manually when S-ON.
oh ok......

Flashable Zip - D2305 KitKat Rooted

Hi guys
I'm a pretty noob on this, but I will make my best on this guide. It's a flashable zip for Kitkat Rooted Rom on Xperia M2 D2305 model.
Things you need:
1. Bootloader unlocked
2. Flashtool by Androxyde
3. An Kitkat FTF file for D2305 (download the 18.3.A.0.31 PT. Sony Indonesia ID on this thread - credits to DavidMKD)
4. The kernel for KK D2305 on this thread (credits to lozohcum)
5. This flashable zip (credits to zxz0O0 for making this guide for the tool)
Follow this steps:
1. Unlock the bootloader obviously (very easy on flashtool, just click BLU)
2. Flash the FTF File via Flashtool (click the lightning and select Flashmode then the FTF file)
3. Flash the kernel via Flashtool (click the lightning and select Fastboot mode then select kernel to flash, click all files and the img kk file)
4. Boot your device on recovery (turn it on and press volume down many times when you see the Sony logo)
5. Select install zip on CWM and flash the zip D2305 Kitkat Root.zip
6. Reebot the device and enjoy.
To fix the mount system, follow this thread. Credits to Naufal Sidik
If you still have the mount system problem, flash the kernel again, reboot the recovery and select reboot system and fix the root.
I hope it works for all. I'm not an expert but you can ask me anything, I'll try to help.

TWRP Xperia E c1505. Rom stock

This is the result of trial and error to install a custom recovery my Xperia c1505 Stock Rom
¡¡¡¡¡¡ATTENTION!!!!!!
I am not responsible for any problems that may occur from a bad flash....
Requirements.
Bootloader unlocked.
File browser (I use ES file Explore)
Root
My xperia E with stock rom does not go into recovery mode by any means "looked like it had not installed" and made the following::
Step 1: Download the .app you install a recovery: https://m.app.box.com/view_shared/h37116w7zkqookdwp4iy I know, it's an LG but it works on our Xperia albeit with limitations (no backup or restore) will use it to install a zip. We do this because before we could get into recovery (do not really know why) and this if.
Step 2: Download Aroma v3 kernel flasher: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...m-kernel-flasher-v3-xperia-miro-tipo-t2481671 "by Yash98"
Step 3: Download this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/rom-drz-xperia-e-ss-t2850459 "by Daniel Florin"
and extract the boot.img file
Step 4: Unzip v3 kernel flasher.
DANGER and brings a boot.img default.
Delete it if you use that boot.img have a nice, expensive paperweight. Move the boot.img from the rom you downloaded to the folder v3 kernel flasher us stay that way. META-INF folder files six more, including our boot.img. select and compress the zip give the name you want. Example.. Xperiae.zip TWRP.
Step 5: We put out our Xperia. Lights turn on and while we press vol- repeatedly until it enters recovery will install zip from sdcard select our zip installed it and the Aroma installer will follow the steps that we mark and ready :beer:
This method worked perfectly for me on my Xperia E c1505 stock Rom 11.3 A 2.33.
