[Q] Stock kernel with CWM Recovery - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Siewka!
Is there any chance to get stock kernel with build-in CWM recovery? It would be nice, because always when I back to stock, have to installing recovery to back up my ROM.

hi i have same question

i just was thinking exactly in the same think.. will be nice stock kernel + CW

oops. Ignore my post.
Sent from my x10 mini running the latest version of minicm 7.

so regret for that
so far this kernel has not been builded yet . does anyone can help us ?

Flash Alfs or nAa to get the feature.
And in case you're now about to complain about "but I can't unlock my boot loader" then you have your answer why "CWM in Stock Kernel" won't happen.

yeah even i want to know about it....i made my own kernel....i addded oc,uv.....even compiled wifi.....but didnt know how to add cwm??? can anyone just give a hint??anyone??

but if we compile exactly the same kernel as stock and add CWM recovery and put loader.sin and kernel.sin into Stock2.1.1.c.0.0 tft file we can flash it.. or is it more complicated?

PrimeHD Stock has CWM Recovery:

At least, when I hold down the power key - I get an option to reboot in CWM Recovery and my Bootloader is locked.

He means CWM in KERNEL so we wouldn t have to install it manually

There's really no harm in unlocking the bootloader (if done right). Nor a benefit in keeping it locked (asides perhaps misplaced pride).

Sounds great but is actually quite pointless. Once CWM is added, it's not quite Stock anymore. Why not go further? Throw in a few more mods and presto! you end up with any of the modded kernels littering (in a good way) the place.
Then you'd end up doing what you were avoiding in the first place - unlocking the bootloader.
PS: Flashing a Stock kernel with even only CWM added requires unlocking the bootloader.
EDIT: Have you read that locking in your bootloader with an even minimally altered kernel could result in the ultimate bricking experience?

THX, actually , we want a stock kernel with CWM (maybe it can't be stock anymore) so that we can modify our 2.1 rom more convient . unlocking the bootloader is not the point.

You have started two same thread on the same problem! Which version of aNa kernel and ROM you are using? Can you go into the Recovery with BACK button?
If so, do a full wipe and install the ROM again with the custom zip files from SDcard.
Please let us have more details so you could help you better!

Well, and you wonder why it "dies" at the attempt to boot?
The STOCK ROM does NOT work with nAa or Alfs!
Now go and flash MiniCM7 or restore the Stock Kernel and keep on improving your knowledge before running free and messing up.

What saintckk wanted to say is this ...
If you look at the thread title of nobodyAtall's Kernel thread it reads:
[KERNEL] nAa-10 [28/1/12] Custom Gingerbread kernel + CWM Recovery
You notice the "Gingerbread" I made bold?
Android 2.1.x --> Eclair
Android 2.2.x --> Froyo
Android 2.3.x --> Gingerbread
Android 3.x.x --> Honeycomb
Android 4.0.x --> Ice Cream Sandwich
Since the thread title points out that the kernel is intended to be used with Gingerbread ROMs you can't use it with older Android versions.
But that's just half the story.
Not every 2.3.x (aka "Gingerbread") custom ROM will actually work with every custom Kernel.
For example:
GingerDX runs on Stock Kernel, Alfs or Linux DX
MiniCM7 runs best on nAa ONLY
This means you have to use a befitting kernel for the ROM of your choice. The supported Kernels of a ROM are either noted down in the thread title or somewhere in the 1st post.
The simple fact is that the 2.1 STOCK ROM does NOT work with custom kernels at all as it has never been made to run on a custom kernel.
Note: I'm ignoring the fact here that lrakkarl's FroyoPro can also run on Alfs.
That being straightened out ...
To resolve your problem do as I wrote above. Either flash MiniCM7 (v2.1.8) or flash back the stock kernel and stay on the stock ROM.
Again: The Stock ROM does NOT work with custom kernels!
NO.... I try of 5 hours and nothing I can fix this... X(
Well...
To flash MiniCM7 (requires "adb" as you're stuck at boot AND some knowledge about how to do it):
- Download the ZIP of the ROM
- Connect your X8 to the Computer by using the USB cable
- Turn on the phone and once the SONY ERICSSON logo appears keep on tapping onto the screen to get into CWM.
- "Mount SD-card"
- adb connect
- adb push C:\path\to\MiniCM7.zip /sdcard
- Flash MiniCM7 from your SD card
- Full Wipe
- Reboot
The other way would be as hrvoje334 pointed out above ...
Flash back to Stock and retry from there.

Ok ...
Download Flashtool
Download the Stock Kernel FTF
Download the Stock 2.1.1.C.0.0 Stock ROM FTF
Put the ftf files into the "firmwares" directory inside the Flashtool directory.
Start Flashtool
Click the "Flash" button and select the kernel ftf.
In the next window don't do anything, just click "OK"
Flashtool will now tell you to ...
- TURN THE PHONE OFF
- Press the Back button and keep it pressed
- Connect the phone to the computer
Once you see that flashtool recognized the phone and started to flash the kernel you can release the back button.
Repeat the procedure a second time, but this time you select the ROM FTF.
Once that's done you're back on the Stock Kernel and Stock ROM.
From there you need to root the phone again and either install xRecovery or Dual Mode recovery (to have xRecovery AND CWM).
You may also try with PC Companion instead of Flashtool, but in case PC Companion tells you to take a hike you need to go down the Flashtool route.

Since you obviously didn't unlock your boot loader but just flash MiniCM7 - no, I take your boot loader should even still be locked, right?
If you didn't touch the boot loader and NOT flash a custom kernel...
Just download Flashtool and the Stock ROM FTF to recover your phone back to Stock 2.1

A little help please :)

I have rooted and installed super SU on the galaxy note n7000.
Running ICS 4.0.4
Modem is XXLRK
Kernel is XXXLRK-CL811902
Build Number is XXLRK
Am i right in thinking that all i have to do is
- recovery Mode boot
- Jbroid Kernel Cleaner (original) flash jBroid_Kernel_Cleaning_Script_Ed-1.zip
- after that flash Abyss4.2 redpill
- reboot in Recovery (under Advanced )
- Wipe data/factory
- Wipe cache/dalvik
- flash Rom
I have all these files however when i go to recovery (which i think it hold, Home, Power and up on the phone.
It says stock recovery, so am i right in thinking that there is no CWM for the note? As the choices i have when in this recovery does not cover install from SD card?
So how would one flash something? Shall i rename it to update.zip???
Many thanks.

Thanks for the reply, and to answer your question i wouldn't know, but it is showing stock recovery, plus this isn't even my phone, i'm using a SGS3, which was a walk in the park, it appears that the note has gone through a very different route for the root / installing a custom rom process.
As it's not my phone i obviously don't want to pass him a paper weight back and say "Sorrrry i tried "
So with that in mind, i'm kinda hoping for bit of help.
But if it means downgrading and what not then i might just give it back to him.
Would be nice to get a win out of this though.
Just out of curiosity, why would you need to downgrade to GB to get CWM working on the note? Surely there must be a way from ICS? root and SU went on well, it's just i'm stuck now and there appears to be a lot of pit falls.

first i am suggesting you as ics is dangerous and not 100% safe even with good kernels.
second yes there is a way for cwm recovery in ics and you need to follow the signatures of dr.ketan sir.
third as i hope the phone is rooted but not showing cwm,so that's why suggesting you to downgrade then upgrade to any custom rom.
fourth custom roms are not safe to flash right from ics.it is better to downgrade to pre-rooted gb rom then do that.

Ahh i see so you can do it but there seems to be a risk right?
Tell you what, i'm giving him his phone back, this appears to be a pain in the backside, i appreciate your help but i think i'll leave it to him.
In all honesty i'd recommend everyone rooting their own phone anyway as if something goes wrong then they'll know where they're up to when they want to fix it.

[SOLVED] [Q] Getting back to stock ROM

Hi all
I have rooted and unlocked the bootloader but haven't taken the jump and stuck a ROM or kernel on as yet, as am actually quite happy with the stock ROM, and also rely on the headphones, amongst other things - which appear to be a problem on some of the ROMs.
If I do stick a custom ROM on, can I easily get back to the stock one, is there a stock ROM of that which I can flash via CWM ?
I understand that with CWM I (currently) have to instantly stick a ROM on, so presumably cant do a backup of the stock ROM at that point..before putting on FXP or some such
I presume I can use the sony update service, but would that wipe the root ...?
could someone enlighten me
many thanks

Take a backup of what you have now in recovery, and you can always restore.
Also there are plenty of stock .ftfs in the allin one thread in Q&A that can be flashed in flashtool
No.
if you flash cmw from the thread then yeas, but you have unlocke your bootloader, so just flash the advanced stock kernel and then you have recovery without having to reflash a rom...

Just after flash .195, I re-installed recovery - install.bat

Im on a stock kernel, now on the FTF Kernel your provided in your ROM thread, for some reason, when i flash your ROM, CWM gets removed, i can't go back into it, i have to flash .303, and then use CWM to flash your ROM, i had to do this to upgrade form 003 to 004.
Locked bootloader, running Assaye v4. thanks to CWM. we just need a flashable version to flash after we flash roms.
You rock bro.

There's an easy fix for this as i just came from the xperia s and had to deal with a locked boot loader on it as well.
We need a flashable version of CWM. this way after you flash a rom before you reboot your device you install CWM, then reboot. then you have ROM and CWM.
I guess you could also try and run the bat file again. (didn't work.)

How to keep TWRP while running on stock?

Coming from Nexus, I'm quite annoyed about how Sony phones work. I'm sick of booting to fastboot and flash a hell loads of stuff everytime I want to do something.
Has anyone made a flash zip that contains TWRP and stock kernel together that I missed? Or is there any other solution?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply, but I'm kind of confused. There is only one download link in the thread, without mentioning any recovery. Would flashing this overwrite the recovery the way same the stock kernel zip file does? Or is there already a recovery inside?
In any case, DoomKernel is kind of still in beta and not yet seems to be stable, so I would avoid it if I could. But I would give it a try.

You are joing right?
Its rock solid stable and has been working on may devices for a long time. I have been running it since its release with no problems.
Both twrp and cmw recovery are in the kernel so you get to choose which recovery you want to boot into. Press volume up on the purple LED and vibration to go into one recovery and volume down to get into the other recovery.
All you need to do is make sure your bootloader is unlocked and flash the zip in whichever recovery you currently have.

You are joing right?
Its rock solid stable and has been working on may devices for a long time. I have been running it since its release with no problems.
Both twrp and cmw recovery are in the kernel so you get to choose which recovery you want to boot into. Press volume up on the purple LED and vibration to go into one recovery and volume down to get into the other recovery.
All you need to do is make sure your bootloader is unlocked and flash the zip in whichever recovery you currently have.

Thanks. Never knew that multiple recoveries can be installed simultaneously.
