is there a way we can have CWM or TWRP for xperia C even with locked bootloader? i heard that xperia c bootloader cannot be unlocked

anyone? hope there will be custom recoveries for this phone soon..

[Q] Stuck after Sony Logo

I just rooted my Xperia L using this method http://www.waledacdroid.com/2014/01/how-to-root-sony-xperia-l-c2104-c2105_16.html.
After the process I downloaded Root checker to verify my root access. It says it has root access already. So I assumed that my unit is already rooted. Next thing I did was I downloaded DextroDroid v3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/development/rom-dextrodroid-v2-t2598697) and follow the steps to install it.
I followed the procedure properly but I was stuck at after Sony logo and I can't pass through it. Please help.

To make things clear, I root my Xperia L using this method, How to Root Xperai L.
After rooting my Xperia L, I found this ROM for my Xperia L and so I decided to flash this. Here is the link of the ROM, DextroDroid v.3.
I am puzzled like you as well coz I followed every single step to Root my unit and to flash a new ROM but then I end up stuck up after Sony logo.
Btw, will you be kind to give me the link on how will flash FTF through flashtool. TIA mate.

Can you give me a hint what should I do 1st, 2nd 3rd.....? I mean, do I need to unlock BL before flashing a custom rom? Do I need to install CWM before Rooting? Please give me the flowchart or something.

to install custom ROM you must unlock bootloader,to root you can flsah kernel like's thunderzap or phantom kernel so you can flash latest superuser
but if you install cm11 you doesn't need to root again,cause it's already rooted

1.if you just want to root and dont want to UBL , follow that link.
2. Some kernels comes with intergrated cwm..like thunderzap ,phantom..! TO USE THOSE KERNELS YOU HAVE TO UNLOCK YOUR BL.
3.if you want to use custom rom like cm,
You have to unlock your bootloader.
I hope I cleared your doubts..
EDIT : there is a cwm for locked bootloader too...search in android development section..!

Follow the steps

2.backup your ta(if your want to lock your bootloader again and to claim warranty , just restore it)
3.unlock bootloader using flashtool.
4.grab any custom rom.
Eg : cm11 by varun,
Extract boot.img from the zip , flash it via flashtool in fastboot mode.
(You will get cwm )
5.flash custom rom.

I was trying to say that, that might work fine 'cause the software is the same. But, still I've got my questions.
Also, as a note. Like someone says above. Aqua was released just with 4.4.2 KitKat.

Not the phone number.
But you can email me at [email protected]
Downgrade is same as upgrade.
Step one get a ftf file.(to get ftf file of 4.4.2 just search on xda or xperiFirm)
Step two open flash tool reboot device in flash mode select ftf file in flash tool in wipe menu un mark data and click on flash.
Wait for it to be flashed.
OR
Root using 4.4.4 method. Only thing you loose is cwm. But if you know flashing well then you can always flash cwm and use it then revert back to stock.
