[Q] Problem With Sony Live With Walkman

Hi!
I'm tried to install the cyanogenmod on my sony live with walkman. I follow the steps of the tutorial anda after run
fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img
The device does not start anymore but the log is ok and have no errors in this process.
So, i wanna know if the CLOCKWORK recovery is installed together with the boot.img and if yes, how do i proceed to access the clockwork?
Thanks

so what exactly is you problem? is the boot loader unlocked ?
what kernel and rom do you have?
if you have cwm, when the boot logo appears and there is a purple light, press the power button and volume up

I cant enter on recovery (cwm). I think that it isn't installed. How do i install it now? If you are sure that cyanogenmod already has cwm, how do i access it?

actually cyanogenmod doesn't have cwm, the kernel does. Make sure your kernel is compatable with cm10

Go to ./flashtool/drivers
Run Flashtool-Drivers
Select your phone. (If you don't know, Select all)
1.3 FTF file:
Go in this page: here (For Xperia Tipo)
Section Tipo
Select your FTF file (Advice: If you don't know which one is your take the GENERIC 11.0.A.4.22)

It's not the subject of the thread, but it's a good idea It's better to have a way to come back to a stock ROM BEFORE trying to make your own .FTF file. Without having a way to come back, it's a bit harder if you're stuck after trying to make your own FTF..

I think exacly the same things ! But it's a good idea for a second tuto! Thank you !

Yes I agree. Im just saying to put pc companion / update service as first step before root and mod and come back to stock.

The download link on the flash tool site for the "v0.9.11.0 full install" is a dud, should i just use a previous release?

No this version works very well ! Did you follow the tutoriel for the installation of flashtool ?
There is a official flash tool from Sony and i try it but i didn't like it! The installation is very sad and I don't find how to repair my phone with. The version from the link is very simple and easy to install. ^^

i had cm10 fxp222 running on my tipo with this mod :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2014242
i tried to change external SD from 4 to 16 GB, but after replacing and formating the new one, my tipo seems to be dead.
pushing powerbutton: no vibration, no screen, no led , no fasboot- or flash- mode.
flashtool, SUS, and pc-companion also didnt work ... battery was about 70 percent when it stopped working.
anyone got an idea ? possibly it has anything to do with the SD-Swap ?

[Q] Can't install CWN Xperia J

Solution is here:

This is working cwm for jb!
If you have unlocked bootloader,no need to install cwm... just flash boot.img (you can find in my mediafire folder in signature) . Cwm is included! boot.img is kernel for custom rom cm10! Without him you get bootloop!

7. Get yourself some coffee or beer and wait.
8. Voila ! Now you have your Sony Xperia E Single back into it's Original Stock Android.
Cheers... !

Hello,
Looks great! But what apps are pre-installed? Because I'm rooted, and I have deleted almost every system app, so yeah... Still good out there for the people who don't want/can root their phone. Thank you in advance.
Have a nice day

This firmware contains the all preinstalled apps which comes in the Original Stock JellyBean out of the box. And I have tweaked this firmware that way that Flashtool will probably not show any error while flashing. And the whole process will go smoothly. So basically this is the same firmware with the latest version. Cheers.

You call this rom? Just replace bootanimation,lockscreen and systemui and it's your rom? If it has more features then this,then write it in thread or it will be reported.
+ you ported rom from xperia e? There's no same lockscreen and systemui,what a port man...lol

not just replacing bootanimation, lockscreen and systemui.. its rooted, zipaligned and all that BASIC stuff... and its free from most of google apps that ftf has.. and its not porting apps its about the idea of having a clean ROM that can be used to go back to stock with reflashing ftf or making a backup
anyways its still not tested yet and most important if you hate it then its not a problem to me

Flashing stock ftf is recommend before flashing modified stock rom. Because without flashing ftf: camera wont work,themes wont work and whole systemUI will be in grey color... :silly:

so this "another mistake"
actually you dont have to flash ftf before installing the ROM if your phone already running the same firmware the ROM made of..
and you found that mistake and you didnt realize yet that i said 0.31 twice thats the real mistake haha thanks for making me know
