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

CWM not working on my Tipo

CWM was working fine on my phone. But recently i tried to install fxp 220. But while flashing boot.img my phone got somewhat dead, in the sense, the phone would only vibrate when i press power button and nothing would happen. So i downloaded stock kernel and flashed. Now the phone is working fine. But cwm is not booting. So i re-installed it. Still not working. Please help. Thanks in advance!
Please for GOD sake reply...I'm waiting. Tell me what has happened. I want to correct it. Please tell me how can i get cwm to work on m y phone. I've performed a nandroid backup before this happened. So is there any way out. Please please do help me.
Have you rooted after installing stock rom? First flash stock or skip if you have done that already.
Then use unlockroot to root your fone.
Then find cwm from the android development section and install it.
Then turn off your fone.
Turn it on and press vol - repeatedly when you see Sony logo.

I didn't flash to stock ROM, i just flashed STOCK KERNEL. So it's already rooted and BL is unlocked. I tried to install cwm more than 6-7 times. still not loading.

i had some other rom installed earlier which was malfunctioning, so i did a full wipe, and then flashed this, and landed here! PLZ HELP!!!!!
Try to flash stock firmware with androxyde flashtool

Yep, i did follow everything properly.
BTW i fixed it after like hours of brain bursting.
I tried flashing it with stock kernel, but to no use. it never went into recovery mode. dunno y, but i flashed it with miui kernel, and the startingsony icon changed and then for that 2 sec timeframe, i got an opportunity to try and get into recovery, and it worked, pheeewwww :victory:
Still dunno what the issue was
Thanks

try re-flashing the rom, if that doesnt fix it, or you cant do that, re-flash the stock firmware.

[Q] Possible recover?

Hello!
Today I've played with my Xperia L too hard. I tried to change my android to cyanogenmod multiple times. (Again and again bootloop.)
It happened when I've done flashing from the recovery. Everything went smooth but then something came wrong,... Error.
I rebooted it and It stucked on SONY logo.
I used flashtool -> fastboot, flashmode, bootloader mode.
Unfortunately android and USB debugging are dead.
The only thing that still works is CWM recovery.
R.I.P. or not?
(My bootloader is unlocked.)
P.S. Sorry for my bad english and thanks in advance.
You did not mention if you tried booting after a factory reset (clearing data and caches)

Of course I tried. System is not even loading up. Everything ends on SONY logo or CWM recovery.
I think that partitons are blank.
I got stock ROM on my HDD. I think i can convert .tft to .zip and then through another phone/adapter do the copy to sdcard.
Is it the same as flashing through the Flashtool?
Hmmm
I already tried to install .zip firmware but "Instalation aborted." after "Instaling update."
Solution?
Phone can't even charge the battery.

To upgrade to Cyanogenmod you need to have the latest sony update for your device. (4.2.2)
You also need to have the latest CWM on your device. For the newer updated roms ( Cyanogen,Carbon....)
And ofcourse you need to whipe everything before proceding..... factory reset,clean cashe and dalvik....
Try flashing it with Thunderzap...
Thunderzap 4.6 is designed for kitkat roms.
Works perfectly with flashing it and running on them.
Best of luck.
PS: I had the similar issue like yourself on start. I was stuck...
The thing is i flashed roms true custom kernels such as THUNDERZAP or PHANTOM...
Never worked true flashtool.
I only flashed custom kernel true flashtool and stock rom.
Yes.
Maybe you won't belive me, but I tried custom kernel sec before you posting.
It works now. And problem was my recovery. It died on symlinks.
And as u wrote I tried Thunder Kernel + Thunder Stock recovery.
Everything went smooth I installed Carbon without problems.
Anyway thanks and again sorry for my average english.
