Hi..
I need to root and flash miui rom in my xperia j. I studied the forum and concluded with the steps that i shud follow. but still then am fearing a bit to make a move. So i'll explain the steps what i have decided to follow and if its right please tell me so that i'll confidently do the work.
1.Unlock the bootloader using sony official method.

fastboot flash boot boot.img ((i hope a cwm recovery comes along with this boot.img))
3.Flash rom and flash gapps.
4. Flash supersu.zip from recovery.
Will the above procedure work fine..????????????

Well, that should be good as long as you install the rom from the stock ICS.
And yes, the boot.img has cwm too :fingers-crossed:

yes

hangs at HTC white screen and can't be detected

Hello Geeks
I have rooted my htc sensation last night and Flash CWM Recovery HBoot 1.27.0000.
I managed to root and installed superuser. After i installed a new font installer apk, the problem started.
I reboot my htc after installed it and it stuck at HTC (Quitly Briliiant) screen.
and I tried several times removed battery and put it back. it can't solve the problem.
I can access to Hboot, and i see Fastboot, Recovery, Factory reset, SImlock, IMaGe CRC,
i tried to recovery, it hangs, samething to Factory reset, (didn't try simlock) and Image crc work fine.
And another problem is after i unplug the phone from usb or wall charger, the red light is still on.
i have no idea what to do.
HOPE can someone here help me with something?
thanks in advance.
(will post more detail if someone needs it)
Perhaps you would like to try and re-flash the CWM Recovery again? If you can't access recovery, most likely your CWM Recovery is corrupted.

what if the phone can't be detected by pc? i can't connect to pc via usb last ngiht.
can you boot into bootloader?
yes. i can go into bootloader
from bootloader you can flash the recovery
jus connect the phone from bootloader to pc (phone reads fastboot usb after this)
get the recovery.img and copy it to your adb/fastboot folder
then open command window there
and type this command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
that should give you the recovery ....then go to recovery and reflash the rom
let me try and get back to u, sorry for late reply, just back from work

i don't think it is a battery issue.maybe a corrupted file(or it is an old link)

are you on stock kernel as well?
that was my issue - was stock rom, rooted, cwm and marmite kernel
had to flash back the stock kernel via fastboot and then apply the OTA via cwm

do you have some other mods on your system (like face unlock, galaxy nexus sounds as described in the ROM thread you mentioned)?
did you try to fix permissions in cwm and give it another shot?
did you try to wipe cache and dalvik before flashing (that's even recomended from some devs)
The OTA is for JB JRO03E only (not for JRO03L)
Another possibility would be to flash the 4.1.2 factory image, but you will loose everything (it's a full wipe!)
For OTA you should be on stock recovery. Flash back stock recovery with fastboot (take recovery from stock image from Google).

You just need to flash the stock recovery, not the whole image...
Download a stock image:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572307
Let's say I download JZO54K Android 4.1.2
You should end up with a .tgz file. Extract it. (soju-jzo54k-factory-36602333.tgz)
You should have a .tar file. Extract it. (soju-jzo54k-factory-36602333.tar)
Then you should have a folder, in that folder there will be a few files including a .zip file, extract it (image-soju-jzo54k.zip)
From the files you just extracted, you should have a recovery.img file.
Using fastboot, you flash this recovery.img file to the recovery partition, and voilĂ , you have stock recovery.

No I cannot upload the recovery.img for you sadly, I cannot download stuff from where I am.
Yes this is the command. Don't forget to replace the /path/to/recovery.img by the actual path.

I always copy the things I want to flash via fastboot to the directory where fastboot is located
e.g. c:\fastboot\
ok. i flashed the stock recovery but i didn't make it! anyway i'm going to flash a full package and full wipe
thanks for your helps.
maybe your search fix you flashed is prventing you from updating with the ota...

Buddy...just enter recovery...you know how to enter Cwm right...then there is an option to wipe data/format. Select it to wipe data...this will reset your phone..
Thank me if I helped you...
@fonetalker101 To boot into CWM turn off your phone then turn it back on when you see sony logo continuously press volume down button untill you enter recovery. when installing CWM make sure you are "ROOTED" and have usb debugging checked in developer settings.

Guide: Installing Kernels/Roms on Xperia L (Unlocked Bootloader only)

Hey there guys, this thread is noob friendly and is made especially for those of you who just got their first Sony phone and decided to flash a custom kernel or rom.
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone, use this tutorial at your own risk.
Things you'll need:
- Xperia L with Unlocked Bootloader(ofcourse haha) Look here on how to unlock your bootloader.
- Flashtool
Installing a kernel (This tutorial is for 4.2.2 only, that is 15.3.A.0.26+)
1. Download phantom kernel from here (both Phantom_modules.zip and the boot.img) Place the "Phantom_modules.zip" into your phone (sd card or internal storage) Or you can use any other kernel's boot.img
2. After installing flashtool, or if you already have it installed, open it and click on the Flash icon (the first icon from the left)
4. When it asks you to choose a bootmode, select fastboot mode and press ok.
5. After all this has done turn of your phone (Xperia L).
6. Get out your usb cable and plug it into your computer while holding the "volume up" button. (notice your phone will glow blue below, this means that it is in fastboot mode.)
7. On the pop up window where it says "By Doomlord", choose "select kernel to flash". Locate your boot.img file that you just downloaded a while ago and select it.(Notice if the boot.img file is not showing up in the file menu, on the right cornor make sure the file type is set as "*.img")
8. Be patient and wait till the kernel has been flashed, should take no longer than 10 seconds.
9. Now select "Reboot device into system" and wait for your phone to power on, now once it's powered on without any problems turn it off. Now turn on your phone and wait for a purple glow then hold down the "volume down"button. Now you'll be in CWM (clock work recovery mod) Once you're here select install from zip. Locate your "phantom_modules.zip"(or the zip file, of your kernel choice) and select yes. Wait for it to be flashed and then go back and, reboot sytem.
10. From here you can flash any kernel/rom via CWM, like Thunderzap or civic. Just boot into cwm, select install from zip and locate your kernel zip file and hit install.

- Sony for their kernel source
Hit thanks if this helped you out.
I don't think that's needed to be Phantom Kernel, or any other in specific, since the kernel provide a recovery with the possibility to flash a zip, it's ok (correct if I'm wrong).
I had unlocked my bootloader, then flashed the boot.img inside of the flashable zip from ThunderZap, then, rebooted to recovery right way, and flashed the entire package from ThunderZap.
Regards and thanks for the helpfull post!

No probs
Well it was the first kernel for 4.2.2 and that's why I put it up instead. I know we can use the boot.img from thunderzap too but if I'm not specific enough most of the noobs wont understand. I also chose that kernel because it comes with a recovery so then you can just flash other kernels via cwm.
Complicated - with properly installed drivers you can start flashtool with usb-cable plugged in. After clicking the flash icon choose "Reboot into fastboot mode (via ADB)".
When the phone is in fastboot mode (blue led) choose "Select kernel to flash". No need to turn off the phone and play with cable and vol-down button...

Sorry for noob question, but in step 9, can I skip the flashing "phantom_modules.zip" part and keep the stock kernel?

Ignore this. I thought it was CWM only. I should have researched more before installing this. But I installed it and it is working good.

Thank you very much for this useful guide.
But I' ve two things to say:
1_If I didn't flash the phantom kernel can I flash a custom ROM.
2_Please the link for boot.IMG is not working they don't find the file could give me a working link.
And thank you very very much.

Flash any (4.2.2) stock rom and try again. That's why your WiFi probably isn't working. Either that or you didn't flash the kernel zip file (ex thunderzap4.1.zip) after fast booting the kernel img.

WiFi now working
I am also facing the same issue where wifi is not working on any Rom. So after following the steps mentioned earlier. What exactly should be done like boot to recovery then flash gapps and then reboot. Once booted flash boot.img from the Rom and then boot to recovery to flash the full kernal zip package..?

I have a HUGE problem. Please help me ASAP!
I just flashed my Xperia L to CM 12.1. I was already on CM 12 before. So I went into recovery, wiped everything and installed the new ROM from zip. Everything worked fine except for the network signal. I was getting no network signal at all. So, when I rebooted the phone, I saw that the ThunderZap kernel was also removed. I tried to flash the kernel using flashtool, but this particular variant has 2 .img files (bootlp and bootkk). I flashed them both using the FlashtTool. Now, when I reboot my phone, all I see is the ThunderZap logo. Please help me ASAP, as this is my only primary driver phone.

What for a ROM and CWM Version have you using?
CWM6.0.2.9 goes not for the most ROMs! You must need CWM6.0.4.4 or higher, or TWRP-Recovery for Padfone 2!
Perhabs your Device can reactivatet by a new Firmware-Flash with CWM6.0.4.4 or TWRP!

false national rom!
I think you have Flash the fals national Rom! TW = Taiwan-ROM, CHT = China-ROM, WW = Worldwide-English, and so on! Thats named SKU Version of the ROM! When your padfone from Europa or USA than you need a WW or WWE ROM! It gives a thread on XDA for flashing other,false,back SKU on Padfones! Search that thread, there a tuturials for Changing or Flash back SKUs! Your device need a Flash back to his original SKU-Version of your ROM!
And for CWM your padfone must be unlocked! But thats simple! On Asus Homepage search your device, and than you can Download a Unlock-APK! Download and install thies apk on your padfone, and start it, than your bootloader is unlocked! And after that, you can install CWM or TWRP on several ways!

i dont know what is the fals natinoal rom ? and i bought my phone from taiwan ? and i dont know what is my build version i cant remember ? and how i can unlock the bootloader and my phone its not booting up normally ? can you tell me what i have to do please step by step and thank you so much
Build-Number is not important!
May be i can help you! Can you start the device in CWM-Mode? Can you go in CWM? In case that you can, load a TW-ROM (TW=Taiwan) via ADB-Sideload over CWM to your device! Than the device should install the original TW-ROM automaticaly!
In case that CWM not Functional, try to turn off the device, wait 30-seconds, than hold the ``+`` (Plus) button on the side of the device, and turn on the device where you hold the ``+`` (Plus) button permanently! Yet should come the ASUS-Logo and in the Top of the Display should stand ``Fastboot-Mode``! Can you please try that, and say me what the device do!?

Ok! I think it is the old CWM6.0.2.9 problem, this version of CWM has problems with flashing ROMs! BUT, there is one ROM on XDA for Padfone2 that must flash with CWM6.0.2.9! It is Tari's Padfone2 Custom ROM+Kernel! It is easy to find on XDA, and this ROM will flashing over Sideload with CWM6.0.2.9! Search on XDA for Tari's Padfone2 ROM, there you can Download the files, and there is also a step by step tuturial, follow that, and try!
And have you tested that Fastboot goes?

yes i tried fastboot and sideload i have no problem with that i can send the roms to my phone but the problem my phone cant flash it ?
OK! But i think your Bootloader is Open, than otherwise, you cant go in Fastbootmode or CWM!? Fastbootmode and CWM (Recovery), that is the Bootloader!
You can go in CWM, then you can make the flash-prozedure of all ROMs! (Stock and Custom)!
Try Taris ROM! Go in CWM, make Wipe Data/Factory Reset, make Wipe Cache, and Sideload Taris ROM!
Did that not work, try CWM6.0.4.4 or TWRP-Recovery to Flash Original ASUS-TW-Firmware!
And when you can start CWM with - fastboot boot recovery.img - , than normaly you can also Flash it permanently with - fastboot flash recovery recovery.img - !

oh ,, just to let you know when i used the cwm 6.0.2.9 i cant do wipe -factory reset or wipe cashe its gave me e: cnt mount but on stock recovery i can do wipe cashe and factory reset but it take too long to do that
There is a other custom ROM for Padfone2 from Sissidroid! Search on XDA for - Guerilla ROM - it is easy to find, and in the thread to this ROM there is a link for Download CWM6.0.4.4. Because CWM6.0.4.4 is needed to Flash Guerilla-ROM from Sissidroid!
In Google search - TWRP for Padfone2 - then you find a TWRP-Site, from there you can Download TWRP-Recoverys for Padfone2. Take the Version 2.6.3.0 of TWRP, not other. The other Versions dont go! TWRP is a Recovery like CWM, but TWRP has a Touch-Interface, and the funtionality is often better than CWM!

ok am gonna look for cwm6.0.44 and for twrp 2.6.3.0 and flash one of them on my phone not just like how i was did i mean just boot it and after that flash one of the roms which you told me about them already but just to remind you my phone its not rooted is that fine ... let me know and thank you so much my friend
The Root is here not so important. In most cases a ROM-Flash Unrooting the device! Every Time when i Flash a ROM, the device is after the Flash unrooted, and i must it Root again! Root is important for a Running System! And it gives a way to Root the Device over ADB/Fastboot, but i dont know how. But i have never Need a Root for ROM-Flash!

Yes, you can do that without root! Important for that is only you can go in Fastbootmode and CWM/TWRP!

hi my friend : i have problem with flashing the recovery { fastboot flash recovery recovery.img } i dont know why and i tried to just boot the recovery img for test : fastboot boot boot recovery.img i tried it with twrp and its show me just the picture TEAM WIN BUT ITS NOT FUNCTIONAL CHECK THE PICS PLEASE AND LET ME KNOW WHAT IS THE PROBLEM AND THANKS
On the pics i see, that recovery-flash was failure! In your CMD-pic, adb gives you a writing-failure! That can happen, when you try it ones! Try it again, and also with cwm! What for twrp version have you try? By right flashing, cmd gives you a sending recovery ok, and writing recovery ok! You have sending ok, but writing a failure!?
And what for adb/fastboot binarys use you?
P.s.: I have a important question, as you tryed to flash Asus Firmwares, have you unzip the Firmware before flashing? Or just Download and Flash how it is!
