[RECOVERY] CWM-Based Recovery 6.0.2.8 for Xperia J [CLOSED]

so i got a p.m. saying that there is no CWM for unlocked bootloaders on stock JB kernel for this device...
since my exams are over i can create CWM recovery for this, but first i want to know if you guys indeed need it and incase you do then i will need testers to test out the recovery as i do not have the device with me...
@mods
i am waiting for reply from users after which i will change the OP to reflect the necessary information...
But what with locked bootloaders. I would like to test it.

do u have any recovery working on JB firmware for locked bootloaders?
I had a running CWM but under versions 7.5. Now I have not any. Or is the possibility to unlock the bootloader with status NO.

they had recoveries with the .75(the latest ICS firmware) version, which was ICS.After the JB update there is no fully working recovery, the one termobulbulator posted is the only one booting.
tl;dr there is no recovery atm.The last recovery was for the last version of ICS.

Dear developer, as you know this device has not separate room in bootloader for recovery.img and this is a big issue. For now I find this solution to do onandroid backup and to flash the CWM with flashtool when I need a system restore... this is a little annoying, but works. Anyway if you could create a CWM recovery for JB stock kernel I'll be the first interested in testing it (may be one recovery.tar in /system/bin...???) Please!

Ok, Mr gavster26, you are the cool ruler of Xperia J, and you really know what's going on with CWM recovery for the device! But although we have yet CWM and TWRP recovery for J none of these developers it is able to fix permanent recovery on stock rom, yet. I have idea that this will be not possible as there is no separate room for recovery in bootloader. Maybe I am wrong but as I am noob just you are, I asked to Doomlord if he will help us to solve the problem, sorry for this but I'm not spammig at all, in any case.

I didn't say you was spamming bro
I have a rooted Xperia J running stock JB with locked bootloader that has no working cwm/twrp recovery (I tried CWM 6.1 and I'm getting a black screen, since the same issues seems to be happening for others in the TWRP thread I haven't tried testing that). I cannot install the adrenaline script without CWM/TWRP. So to answer your question, yes it would be great if the J had a working recovery on stock JB however I have a locked bootlader so I cannot install custom ROMs/kernels if I understand correctly what I read so far. CWM did work on stock rooted ICS (version ending with 7.5).
Please do let me know if there is anything I can do to help you with testing without bricking my phone

[Q] (Q) ¿Error al entrar en CWM?

Hello friends, I am newbie in android something I wanted to install CWM 6.0.4.5 of this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560928 and everything goes perfectly, but when squeezed keys + volume, power and home the ANDROID SYSTEM RECOVERY 3E shows me instead of CWM 6.0.4.5 and enter CWM have to do to step 4 with odin and remove the battery etc. .. and I can get! but only this time, after I turn it and attempt to re-enter but it appears the android system recovery 3e. Please help, I do not want this whole process to remove the battery to get. Thank you!
hi @matutecarp99
you have to flash this file called cwm-permanentor.zip with CWM to prevent the Stock ROM to flash it's own recovery over CWM
Warning : flashing cwm-permanentor.zip makes your device status custom.
you can find cwm-permanentor.zip here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303395
find it in section B)Rooting it's one of those 2 links.
there is other solutions for this, mentioned in tutorial in your link, but this method i said worked for me.

It's because the firmware overwrite cwm with stock recovery, you must root it or directly flash custom ROM. Or use the trick from the first replier.

you can see back up and restore in CWM.
actually backup is not necessary i suggested it because it's good to have a back up of stock rom, so whenever anything goes wrong you can restore your phone as it was.

What's the difference between this version and 18.3.C.0.37 except root? Also how to flash cwm?
Now we just need a method to bring CWM or TRWP to the D2303. Or is it included in the above, and I can flash it via kernel + Flashtool?
I will update the op as soon as posible.

If the kernel contains CWM, I could extract the kernel.elf from the .zip, then flash it via fastboot. Correct?
Which region is the ROM from?

The kernel in this zip file not includes CWM! You need the CWM from DooMloRD.
Flash this file via fastboot, then reboot in recovery.
This is the customized MY 1281-1590 version of this firmware.

The differences are minimal, minor bugfixes. On my device it works fine.
For flash the CWM, read the op.
when will their be a custom kernel for us locked bootloaders with cwm on it .as would like to see it on the m2 locked bootloaders .
If the fix mount system tut here does not work for you, which may not, here is a simple fix just for removing the unneeded system apk's after flashing dotzi's 18.3.C.0.39:
- create a file named "enable" with a file editor with the value 0 in it
- save the file without .txt extension, or remove the extension after the file is saved
- copy the file "enable" to sys/kernel/security/sony_ric (ignore any failed operation message)
- set permissions to rw-r-r-
Gives full access to all system files for the current session.

This customized ROM works fine for me. Thanks to the OP!
Perfect would be CWM integrated into kernel, dito for the mount-sript (and init support) into ROM. That's all we need No de-odexing or other pointless stuff.

Nice to hear that it works. To integrate CWM will only be possible if a working Recovery is available for the D2303. I just tried it in the kernel building, but I failed miserably. But I will try as soon as possible to integrate the mount-script and the init.d support.
Let us hope that even more people to deal with it and the development is of overriding driven.

Consider putting the doomlord kernel which contains the CWM onto another storage (if he allows). Downloading from the current location is really not fun.
I'll be subscribing here as it seems you want to bring it further.:good:

It doesn't matter. Flash the cwm via fastboot, and boot only in recovery by pressing vol down. Then Flash the zip file and reboot! It works, believe me!

Could we get a proper instruction for flashing this rom? Is this rom the one leaked from vietnam ? and also what would be the procedure to revert back to kitkat 4.2.2(ODIN or CWM Backupfile?)
Odin flash is always works and yes u can go back to 4.4.2 but make sure ur using CWM recovery and make one copy of it before proceeding.

Hi Dr.ketan
I m feeling happy that ur into my thread I m a follower of u and for this backup to do so the root is required and since mine is indian version i dont want anybody taking chance on doing this.
The bootloader is android 5 and modem is from Vietnam leak.
I expect more help from u on this to get success as this is my first thread.
Thank you

When you restore nandroid it will replace all files from your backup so no meaning to have specifically indian version. It should work like all custom ROMs
When you restoring from nandroid, No root requires
CWM Nandroid restore doesn't restore modem and bootloader (at least on chenglu's what I am using) so provided recovery does so?

I had tried this with two different devices which were stock rooted devices so both got success and thought of sharing it.
Hope it will do

How did you do that with the MD5 mismatch errors, I verified every file in the backup and they do match Nandroid.md5, so something is obviously wrong, are you sure about the version of CMW?

I have no reason to believe that restoring just nandroid will do job if that lacks bootloader and modem.
Are you sure before using this you have never installed Android L with previous method?

Hey Doc.
I tried it with a new bootloader and what did happen is that it was impossible to use ODIN to flash any other
recovery, it would just fail until I reverted back to the bootloader you provided some time ago, fortunately this new
bootloader did not block me from going back.

what, you rooted with stock.
if your bootloader is unlocked flash cwm kernel from my thread here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-e3/general/simplified-guide-to-root-sony-xperia-e3-t3012248
and backup using cwm.
