Hi all!
A while ago I installed Vengeance kernel 1.40 on my Xperia J to avail of the 1.3ghz OC feature. I am running stock firmware (.31) When I first installed Vengeance I had no problem booting into recovery, but for some reason, I can't anymore. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1373435
If i have understand the install instructions, i am on the right boot.img having CWM installed and only need to unlock my bootloader, and then i am similar to this kernel?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440161
and can start flashing the rom ?
If something is going wrong, can i flash back to stock rom using flashtool or wotanserver? or will it brick because i have something to do first or can i just start flashing over with stock rom then?
Thanks for reading, any help would be nice

Can anyone tell how to flash permenent cwm recovery i have bricked phone thrice because i cant take backup of my rom please help
Since sony phones don't have recovery partition, you wont have 'permanent ' recovery..
But you can flash a split kernel, with recovery in it. Then you will have recovered as long as you don't flash a new kernel, or return to stock.

You surely can use the likes of X parts or such apps to get temporary recovery however for a permanent cwm -the only solution remains to flash a custom kernel(.img file extension)
Then you'd not have issues doing the flashing stuffs
Cheers
Have a read of this thread carefully

Well, my question is so simple... how can I go back to ICS without using flashtool?
Can I just flash vengeance kernel and flash for example Gimlo or ZNXT rom?
Thanks

New Question: Phone doesn't boot with Vengeance: I tried to flash vengeance and install Znxt v6, CWM/TWRP couldn't flash it and I read that issue on other thread so I flashed stock kernel and flashed it and it works fine, then I flashed Vengeance again (tried with v1.40, v1.43, v1.45) and on first boot while bootanimation it flashes white splash screens and then reboots and I get bootloop (stuck on Sony Logo). I came back to CM10 until someone can give me some advice.
Thanks.
yes you can do that.
Don't you have to use flashtool to flash a kernel?
Nope @Chainfire's work Odin makes it possible for you to flash kernels
bump, new question.
Vengeance isn't compatible with znxt rom.
The items that are not compatible are the updated adreno libs. Download the zip from this thread and delete the files the downloaded zip stores in the znxt zip.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2352724
Remove CWM recovery from the znxt zip (recovery.tar) since Vengeance already has dual recovery.
Those are the compatibility issues I know about, try what i said if you really want znxt rom on your device.
How to use this kernal and which rom is compatible on,this kernel...plz guide me bros......

i think u must install custom kernel with CWM recovery or TWRP to get into recovery mode....
You just need to flash cm7-gb nAa kernel, enter cwm and flash cm7 , after wiping everything in cwm ofcourse

Do you have space in system/data ???
wipe all, and flash again....
& are you using the correct kernel for that rom ?
thats a rom from 2012 i think....
I have no idea what I am doing wrong.
Unlocked bootloader. Went back to stock (ICS), rooted. Went to the FAQ to try to install CWM, downloaded boot.img, flashed, got into cwm, installed Doomsday rom(made sure to wipe everything), and my phone is stuck in bootlock(Sony Screen).
I got the v2 download link. Also I would like to go with the Vengence Kernal but no clue when to install that.
Its JB
Doomsday is jb based. so you should first flash 11.2.A.0.31 ftf.
