[SOLVED]
Hello,
I recently got Xperia L from my friend and I wanted to give it a "new life" in form of new Lineage OS. The problem is I can't install any new TWRP so I'm stuck. I'm total noob when it comes to this. I've flashed many roms on my S4 mini, but this Sony gives me hard times.
Things I've done:
*Unlocked bootloader via Flashtools with code from xperia original site.
*Had to reflash original "C2105_15.3.A.1.17_CE.ftf" because of bootloop.
*Tried root via DoomLord Easy Rooting Kit - didn't work.
*Ended up rooting via Kingo Root app from PC.
*Tried install TWRP through original app + using the
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
commands. - didn't do anything (no error tho)
*Tried to install TWRP through ADB - gives error "command not allowed".
*Managed to instal TWRP through Recovery installer apk v 1.4 - but it's old version (2.7.1.0)which doesn't support flashing new TWRP.
*Many more things what I've found here on this forum which ended up bootlooping the phone, did nothing or gave error.
added:
*Flashify freezes when I try to select "Choose a file" in Recovery menu and doesn't load anything when I choose to download TWRP.
*Managed to instal CWM or TWRP via Recovery Installer for Xperia L - v1.8 - both old version, so no win for me.
So here I'm stuck on C2105_15.3.A.1.17_CE.ftf with old TWRP v2.7.1.0 and I can't move forward. Any help will me MUCH appreciated! Let me know if you need any more info.

Followed How To on original Lineage wiki and it worked. I'm an idiot that I haven't checked it sooner.

Sony Xperia tipo single sim phone.
1) I unlocked the bootloader using Sony's website
2) I rooted the phone with unlock root free software
3) I made a custom recovery of clockworkmod 6.1 (cwm 5.x.x.x)
4) and i finally i tried loading this custom rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293851
http://d-h.st/fz8
5) I also installed google apps
http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip
The device is unlocked, rooted and shows cwm recovery 5.x.x.x as recovery partition. Both the installations were successful too.
After gapps installation when i rebooted it, its now stuck on "JB Mini Project 10" screen and is not proceeding ahead.
What could be the problem?
I have the same problem with the same ROM, and I do not know what to do next, I can not even get into CWM and reinstall. But I have bootloader locked. I send 2x request for unlock and flashtool say Phone is Locked. Help please.
Sorry for bad English
Hello,
i successfully gained root and installed TWRP, but i install a wrongt ROM (mostlikely only my fault) http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-zte-v970-v970m-t2956447.
Now I have no chance to boot into the recovery and the rom doesn't work too.
I have tried:
• ADB to wipe cache (adb devices / offline - no reboot recovery or push possible)
• Install drivers - ADB Drivers and Alcatel drivers are installed.
I can use SP Flasher to install new .imgs BUT i do not have them :'((((
I don't know if it would even help, the device is stuck in a bootloop and i have no access to recovery like i said ...
GUYS i would be so frkng happy if someone could help me with this.
I am sorry if i didn't use propper english, i'm from germany.
I hope someone can help me with this, Thanks!
EDIT: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Found the Solution, installed old .img files for boot....
Glad you got it fixed. I'll close this thread.
Hello everyone,
I am trying to flash my recovery but i still couldn't find a way to do it.
I already have my Wiko Highway rooted (using kingo root)
I also installed :

- Busybox Pro
- Superuser
- Root checker (confirmed rooted)
- TWRP Manager
- Mtk engineering
- several flash aplications like flashify, rashr, flashfire, all mobile flash, recovery flasher
- I have also 3 different recovery image files to be flashed in my Wiko HIGHWAY that i've found in other forums.
I've been more than 4 hours jumping from forum to forum and i can't flash this recovery image.
I got some errors.
- Flashify told that the device wasn't rooted, but it is.
- TWRP manager, mk2802 cwm recovery gives errors.
Cant someone help me out please? This is how far i've been, i need a new recovery to access the "install" option. All of this to play.... pokemon GO

I've just flashed it on my father's Wiko Highway Signs+[ROM][6.0][Stable] Latest MIUI v8 6.9.22:
https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/...o-highway-signs-and-micromax-a290.795258.html
Hello everyone,
I tried to do an official update in the stock rom (4.2.2) via the settings menu=>about=> System update and then i rebooted, it asked me to install the .zip and it said "installation aborted" and now i'm stuck on "CWM Based Recovery v6.0.4.4 modd by [email protected]" . I guess it's because thiss CWM version doesn't support higher android version than 4.2.2 ? The update was only ~7Mb , it's weird.
I tried to flash the latest recovery (CTR Recovery v3.3) but i get the error "partition recovery not support flash". I tried to use the adb command line but "adb devices" show me nothing.
is there a way to boot on the stock rom , please?
P.S: the phone was rooted but i hope that the root is still there
EDIT1:
I suceeded to connect the phone on my PC with "MTK Droid Root & Tools" but in it doesn't show all the information and the "box" at the bottom left is blue instead of green :/ I guess i'm not rooted anymore?
Hey all. I am freaking out a bit. Got a new Xperia Z5 with stock Lollipop OS and tried to install TWRP. I started getting annoyed as it wouldn't work. I followed a guide that instructed me to install a file called "boot_E6653_with_TWRP" which I would install using "fastboot flash boot boot_E6653_with_TWRP.img". Ever since I did that, the phone has just vibrated when I try to turn it on and goes to fastboot mode. Although, it's not detected in fastboot devices. Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
The guide I followed: Android Infotech Root Sony Xperia Z5 E6653 Nougat Install TWRP Recovery
UPDATE: I left it for a couple minutes and when I came back, I tried flashing an FTF file in flashmode and it just suddenly worked.
Why you follow other's guide. There are many on xda. If you have a problem, write your problem that guide which you followed not xda..
