CWM and Flashtools

I have a doubt. If i had CWM Recovery with locked Bootloader, would i be able to flash a stock ROM using Flashtools? Or CWM will remain instead?

You can make by both methods (only if the stock rom its a flashable zip)

Thanks. But if i want to erase CWM, can i do it by flashing a stock ROM by flashtools? I have locked BL

Yes. Easy way: use pc companion > repair. If you have .ftf, use flashtool, and you will lose cwm and root.

I will lose CWM Although i have locked Bootloader, right?

CWM will be removed as the system folder will be removed too, and the boot.img replaced(if the kernel packs CWM in it)

Thank you so much. I asked that because i am thinking about installing a custom ROM like Paradox but I have locked BL, so i thought i wouldn't be able to come back to complete stock for example, in case i had to ask for warranty. But my kernel doesnt pack CWM. I have stock kernel. I have to install CWM separetely. Does it matter or is it the same once you want to flash the firmware and erase CWM and go back to stock? I want to be completely sure about this, i dont want to get a huge FAIL

Can someone answer me please? Im interested about that.

You are safe if you dont unlock bootloader. Going back to full stock? Pc companion - repair. Just root and install cwm, then install any rom that said for locked bootloader.

Thank you so much. Now I feel sure to install a ROM, at least, I know I can go back to stock without any problem

Kitkat or Jelly Bean on X-Tipo dual

Hi everybody
I need news of custom roms of Android 4.1, 4.2.,4.3 or 4.4
Sorry for my bad english
Enviado desde mi ST21i2 mediante Tapatalk

There is no development for Tipo dual right now... Tipo single is just starting the roll with a future KitKat ROM!

So...later coming a New rom for the x-tipo dual

Hi guys,
Porting later flavors of Android other than ICS for Tipo Dual is not currently considered by anyone. :crying:
We Tipo Dual users have some option of Custom ROM as follows.
1. Use Gimlo 2.0 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2123835
2. Use Gimlo 2.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2547428
but these are basically ICS..
3. Use T.Rex CROSS-FLASH option. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2594389
Literally this option turns our phone in to Xperia Tipo (NO DUAL ANYMORE :angel. I used it personally with FXP kernel and JBMP 5 JB ROM. Works well. But high battery drain noticed. Don't know why. SystemUI won't have options for Dual Sim and Quick SIM change button wont work either. Actually the fix flashes ICS baseband from Xperia J to our device. then only one sim started to work. [Digged from FTF MANIFEST.MF FILE]
Manifest-Version: 1.0
device: ST26i
branding: CE_BaseBand_ICS_ONLY
Created-By: FlashTool
cmd25: false
version: 11.0.A.7.5

Thats what I found out..
Fellow dev jjm34 managed to get a working CM10 for E DUAL with help of Code Aurora Dual Sim Implementation.
If any dev listening to this if we can do the same to our TipoDUAL? Problem is E DUAL is upgradable to 4.1.1 JB. If using that upgrade the CM10 built? But no JB for tipo dual..

You see the fix for the signal of the SIM of cm10

It's a seriously long shot, but how about you people flash the baseband of a single SIM Tipo, then flash whatever ROM you use? Using this trick, many Xperia E single owners (me included) were able to run stock-based CM10 ROMs.

I have got no idea about the whole “safe” thing. No warranties, implied or not.

I'm using Gimlo 2.0 with Xperia T launcher. Performance are not vary for the two roms. But 2.1 has modified installation process and It has been removed non-working apps and mods and have fixes to FC apps.. See the thread.
