I have Sony Xperia P, I had a custom rom but I wanted a diff one so i wiped everything from my phone including the internal storage so the other rom image also got deleted by mistake now I am unable to transfer anything to my phone as it does not show up in the computer so though I have TWRP on my phone I can't flash other ROM as i can't move it to the internal storage,and phone also doesnt respond to adb sideload ( don't know why ??). So any help would be appreciated.
TWRP version 2.8.5.0

Hello,
( If I have posted this incorrectly, I appologise.
It's not very clear on the best place to put this, since I can't post on the actual guide thread yet )
I've just finished following the guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2295694)
It has definately flashed the recovery, which is great.
However I cannot boot the recovery using any kind of key combination.
The only way I can access it is by booting into the current stock ROM, and using the CWM ROM Manager.
My issue is that if I want to flash a different ROM (AOKP when I figure this out), if the ROM fails and won't boot, I can't get back into recovery to fix the issue or re-flash a different ROM.
I don't want to end up with a bricked device.
I've done a lot of reading and can't find any potential solutions...
I'm more used to flashing Samsung devices
Thanks for any assists!
I suggest you to go here and send your problem here, because you cannot post to Development threads:
Sony Xperia Tablet Z > Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
I'm sure someone will find a solution to your problem
just a little help: Have you tried to re-flash recovery,
Or go to read this page => http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...2295694&page=3 ?
It says that only manual boot to recovery from system works for SGP311 devices. / / Most probably because event definations are different for keycheck
Thanks to my colleague @Abhinav2 for this link

Thanks for the response
I haven't tried a re-flash as yet.
It looks like a common issue so I was wondering if there might be an updated kernel I could flash...
The link you gave looks like it's shortened (with ....) so it doesn't work
I'll try posting again in the thread you suggested.
Thanks!
Ok, no problem and good luck

OK i ve been trying to flash a new custom rom on my Xperia P, i looked at a number of guidelines and doing things step by step.
Since im very new to this i downloaded a few Roms. I was following the guide "http://droidors.com/2014/07/08/update-xperia-p-lt22i-to-android-4-4-4-kitkat-with-slimkat-custom-rom/2/" and everything was going fine. I reached the step to "fastboot flash boot boot.img", i did that and then went on the next step to boot in CWM Recovery and install the zip rom and the Gapps. During the Zip Rom install i got status 7 error.
Now, i noticed that i might have flashed the wrong Rom so rechecked the guide and installed the correct Rom which is mentioned in "http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/p-development/rom-slimkat-4-4-2-release-candidate-t2657795" . But now THE PROBLEM IS, AFTER I FLASHED THE INCORRECT IMG, MY PC IS NOT RECOGNISING THE XPERIA P SAYING IT DOESNOT RECOGNISE THE DRIVERS, therefore im not able to copy the ROM Zip on the SDcard, to then run it from CWM.
Please help.
After sometime i tried the below
Ok, now i tried to flash the stock Rom through this link "http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/p-development/ftf-firmware-xperia-p-generic-world-t2322163", through flashtool to bring my phone back to life. I installed the drivers as per instructions from drivers folder, but for some reason the pc is just not accepting. I did install through this exact method yesterday night and it worked perfectly.
Please suggest. I hope im asking at the right place.
Urgent help please
I forgot to mention, after I flashed the SlimKat Rom, and things went out of hand ( till this point i could see Slimkat logo at boot and could also go in CWM Recovery ), I tried to restore through Nandroid Backup i had done. As soon i selected the restore option and then the backup file, within 2-3 seconds the phone went off, and then on boot all i can do is see "SONY" on screen. Nothing else happens.
Kindly advise, im stuck with no spare phone.

Hi guys,just few hours ago I discovered how noob I am on these android things.I don't know anything , the unique thing I was able to do was to root my phone but with some SuperSu fails... My phone is LG L9 P760.
I want a ROM ( possibly 4.4) because my current version ( 4.2) doesn't let me install games on my SD card so I tried my best to do so.I saw a lot of tutorials, and on all of them I failed because I'm a big noob.
I tried to restart my phone in recovery mode - Failed
Tried to unlock bootloader- Failed
I also tried also some other things I needed before installing the rom but all of them failed I think?
Can someone that's good help me install this ROM 4.4 on my phone and possibly help me when I encounter problems?Thanks in advance

Hello everybody!
I own a HTC One M7 that I've bought of my buddy and accidently erased my OS file on the phone's recovery system. I've been looking through all possible tutorials on the internet (Youtube, Google, XDA...) and only found one that sounds similar to my problem of trying to copy ROM zip file to the freshly wiped device( I can't post the link atm, so you'll have to SG4it)
But here's where the issue begins; Since it's just stuck in the bootloading sequence(due to the misssing OS file), I have to do it through the recovery system. I've tried to follow the instructions as it commands, but can't even find what it calls the "c:\mini-sdk" anywhere on the computer(Windows 8 is the OS I have on the computer).
I've been working with this since 9.00 am in the morning until 10 p.m. on the evening, European timeline, and I really need help. I can't afford to leave it in a repair store and in constant need of my phone .
Any helpful advice or input will be very appreciated.
With Humble Regards
Alexander
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
If you have a rooted device with custom recovery(CWM or TWRP) then all should have to do is download a custom ROM and Gapps in .zip format and flash them in recovery.
