How to install CWM recovery - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Friends.
I recently installed fde rom having cwm recovery version 3.0.2. When I tried to return to gdx 28b it gave me an error and I accepted roms option of restoring recovery and could boot to gdx. But now the issue is I don't find cwm recovery when I reboot. How do I reinstall cwm recovery without going back to stock rom?

Can you boot in ROM? If so, boot in Fde, grab x8toolbox, plug phone in pc, enable usb debugging, and install CWM or FreeXperia recovery. If you can't boot into Rom, then shut your phone off. Turn it on again, press the screen repedeatly. If CWM doesn't show up, turn your phone off again, start it, and press&hold the volume down button until FreeXperia recovery shows up. If nothing shows up, flashtool is there for flashing ftf of stock rom.

Press thanks if i helped

It is clasic problem of stock kernel.There is no way without re flashing with flashtool .

Solved. After trying many things, went back to stock and repeated everything till gdx28.

CWM for X8 Stock rom only, I meant as ur Original recovery u can't use CWM, only can XRecovery.....
I Saw that from web and I didn't believe it that time, so i installed CWM on a custom rom then it stucked at SE Logo.....

Recovery mode dont work and alway get factory reset

Hi,
I installed v30b for test but now i want to go back on cm10. I flashed a stock v20 with cwm with smartflash and i was able to boot in recovery. I tested to load my v20 rom but that alway come back to recovery, impossible to load my v20 rom. So, i tried to install cm10 and all was ok. But when i try to go in recovery mode, the phone restart without going into it and do a factory reset.
Now each time im trying to go in recovery mode, cm10 do a factory reset
What i can do for resolve this problem?
Flash cwm with rom manager
Sent from my phone powered by cm10, Big thanks to RC
Rom manager said im on 5.0.2.6. So i can only install the version 6 of cwm but it dont work(cant mount sd card)
So its impossible to install again 5.0.2.6 by rom manager. Because rom manager dont show old cwm version like before
Its very strange because before my v20cwm rom worked. Now i got boot loop in recovery mode. And if i install cm10, its impossible to go in recovery without factory reset
I tried to flash cwm with PC and i alway get "access denied" (debug on, mass storage off)
Oh yes i got it from ZEUS rom. Flashed cwm from UPK kit pack
thx!

[Q] GALAXY S I9000 -boot loop(how to fix?)

(sorry for my English )
the thing is that my Samsung S wont starts ,when i click the power button its starts in CWM RECOVERY and when i press "reboot system now" it enters a boot loop (the logo keeps running over and over and the phone)
before this happened i originally had the stock ROM of my cellular carrier (2.3.3
then i decided to install another rom and kernel (cyanogenmod 10) so i installed first a clean stock rom (2.3.6) via odin
and then the cyanogenmod rom and kernel (up to now its all fine)
after that i wanted to change and install other rom so i installed again the clean stock rom 2.3.6 via odin...and from then it started to boot loop.
i thought that if i will install the kernel again it will be OK ,but it wont..
and now im in the situation that i have described above..
help SOMEONE please=]

it is because the latest CM10 is based on a different partitioning layout than the stock one.. after flashing CM10 once when you go in a boot loop.. go to CWM recovery by using the three button combo and flash CM10 again.. . this time your rom will boot:good:

I installed the kernel and then the stock rom again but now its just bootlooping without getting load up to CWM recovery
so how can i get into CWM recovery????
(i tried VolumeUP+HOME+POWER but it just get into regular recovery...)
pull out your battery for a couple of minutes then replace battery
;hold three button forever or until it goes into recovery if that doesnt work
reflash through odin and do it again or check out darkyrom 10. re this gets flashed through odin

flash darkyrom 10.2 Resurrection edition using odin.. this will give you a GB rom with root
flash CM10 through CWM recovery
reboot.. (you may not be able to boot as of now)
go to CWM recovery again using 3 button combo
flash CM10 again
reboot
this should do the trick
THANK YOU TWO
the Darkys rom 10.2 re was great --- it starts now hahah
i Will try now another rom (not cyagonmod but PilotX)
thank you very muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Rooted stock firmware won't run custom recovery?

Hello,
I've been running stock rooted 4.1.2 for a while but my phone randomly reformatted itself last night so now I'm going to keep regular backups of my Rom.
I tried to boot into. CWM Recovery but I keep getting the stock recovery.. if I use Rom manager and flash CWM followed by an automated "reboot into recovery" then it boots into CWM but until I reflash CWM within Rom manager I can only get stock.
I want to try a few roms out so I'd like to "permanently" flash a custom recovery before making a backup!

try philz touch, it has a function to remove the auto-flash stock recovery. Otherwise there's a method in the general root thread if you want cwm.

Recovery boot loop

This always happens to me, I installed cwm and it works fine, but I can't normally boot my phone it just boot loops once and again, I just can go into recovery mode, that's it.
Last time I flashed cwm it happened the same, but I can't remember what I did
Help please

Was there a kernel included with the CWM files?
If on a stock Sony ROM re-flash a stock ROMs kernel via flashtool
If your using a non Sony ROM try flashing a kernel that matches the ROM you're using

G-Key Recovery

Hi Guys,
I am using Zues rom 6.4n on my OB. Huexxx included G-key recovery so whenever I got bootloop and if I had Zues Rom Installed, I can easily go in recovery mode.
Strange thing happened today. I have recovery 6.0.1.4. I did take backup of Stock rom first and Installed CM10.2. I found some bugs so rebooted in recovery, restored backup (stock rom). When I restarted my phone, it couldn't even see boot animation. Phone got stuck on LG logo. I had to use smartflash tool to revert back to stock rom with root. That time since I didn't have Zues ROM, G-key recovery didn't work.
Can anyone give me any solution on this? Also, can anyone help me how to create G-key recovery zip file which will help when phone gets stuck in bootloop?
Thanks,
Sumedh
