S1 Boot problems

HI Guys,
Today i tried 40 times to install S1 Boot drivers.
How can i make it work , cauze i want to install custom ROM.
Thx

You don't need any s1 boot driver to install custom rom, just root your phone install cwm and flash your custom stock rom. unlock your bootloader ( if you can) and you can enjoy cm10 aokp... All in one thread can help you

Thanks but how do i get in fastboot mode? For root you need to get in fastboot mode?

For enter in fastboot you need an unlockable bootloader but for now fastboot is just for flash kernel. But if you can't you can always root your phone on a. 303 firmware with flashtool install The cwm ( you can find it in dev theard) and flash à custom STOCK rom but you don't need fastboot or Just if you cant unlock your bootloader fastboot is not enable in thé phone so you cant flash cm10 aokp.... Whose need custom kernel

Are you trying to unlock your bootloader?
If so, there's a page of instructions in Sony website. The instruction page will provide a link to download Android's SDK and the S1boot fastboot driver.
Have you done that step yet?

Cant Open Recovery

I installed philz recovery yet when i open recovery mode, it shows a dead blue android. How to open my recovery.
Thanks in advanced

It seems you have stock recovery how did you flash it did you use toolkit by anil293 or did flash using fastboot and look for unlock boot loader option in toolkit or did you unlock boot loader if you didn't unlock try unlocking first an then flash recovery happy to help and also don't write THANKS HIT the thanks button IT would mean a lot to us developers

You can boot to recovery by the command >> fastboot boot recovery.img

I tried both. First I did with adb. It worked fine till I installed lollipop of India.
Didn't work after that, then I used the all in one kit as well, still no luck. I used their rotund option, it opened philz somehow. Please help

How did you install lollipop by restoring or flashable zip and which device are you using and my device is canvas a1 at first i installed lollipop using philz backup and then it got to stock recovery and i lost root and this is what i did then I installed official drivers and use minimal adb and fastboot tool and downloaded the official twrp and placed the img file in c/minimal adb directory and rename the file to twrp.img and NOT twrp.img.img and connected device in fastboot mode and typed (fastboot devices) a serial number displayed and typed fastboot flash recovery twrp.img and voila I got the twrp up and running from then I've been using twrp and also download the material theme IF you got any errors post here

Flash the recovery image using fast boot

[Q] About to unlock, unencrypt, root, and rom! please check if correct

I bought a nexus 6 on google play and I am on verizon. It is currently running 5.0 LNX07M.
Could some nice fellow please tell if if this is correct?
1. download wugfresh
2. download drivers
3. tick usb debug, oem unlock
4. unlock bootloader
5. flash no force encrypt
6. root
7. Trwp
8. Get Chroma/ or any other 5.1.1 rom and flash with gapps?
I'm espeically concerned if it is ok to unlock and root a 5.0 nexus 6 and then use twrp to flash a 5.1.1 rom. Should I first update the phone to 5.1 or something?

1. download and install adb/fastboot
2. boot into the bootloader and plug in via USB to your computer. depending on what your computer is running, it could download and install the driver by itself or you would have to.
3. fastboot OEM unlock unlocks the bootloader.
4. reboot and back into your bootloader.
5. flash twrp recovery
6. flash your custom kernel and SuperSU for root via twrp recovery.
7. only if you want to decrypt, format your storage. if not, just reboot.

Should I update my phone or is 5.0 ok for flashing the latest 5.1.1 rom?

if updating the official way, go to 5.1 then 5.1.1. but if updating via custom ROM, it doesnt matter, you can flash 5.1.1 over 5.0

IMHO,
1) download Android SDK or minimal fastboot and ADB or 15 second ADB and fastboot installer
2) connect to PC and reboot to bootloader
3) from command prompt:
fastboot devices
(Serial number shows up)
4) From command:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot reboot
5) Download the latest TWRP recovery for shamu
6) Boot back to bootloader and from command (having placed the TWRP image somewhere where fastboot can find it i.e. in platform tools in SDK) also rename it to twrp.img
Issue the command:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
(Be careful to not have it list the file ext. twice. Windows names the file ext. by default. Example: twrp.img.img
After recovery flashes, from bootloader, use the volume keys to select recovery mode and press power. Your device will boot to TWRP.
Make a backup!
Next, download SuperSU zip and flash with TWRP.
Congratulations, you are now stock rooted and you can choose any ROM you like and flash with TWRP. Follow the instructions carefully from the ROM OP and profit.
It may look complicated but trust me, it's not. The longest process will be after you unlock the bootloader. Your device will wipe completely so backup anything you'd rather not lose forever.
Remember, a 32gb Nexus will take 10 to 15 minutes to wipe and reboot. A 64gb will take 20 minutes or more.
The benefit of doing it this way is you know exactly what is happening to your device, unlike a toolkit. Also, you just learned something! Plus, if you get stuck somewhere and end up soft bricked, you'll understand what and how when someone here tells you how to fix it.

Thank you guys for your responses ! I think my laziness is going to win me out this round so im going to use the toolkit. But next time, I will do the correct way!

[Q] Can't Install CWM Recovery on Xperia SP

I have this ROOTED XSP .205 with LOCKED bootloader and I was trying to install CWM recovery by following a procedure that was only for Locked Bootloader Xperia Sp but I couldn't install it.
First in the cmd it was giving
'can't find specific path'
Then I found out that I needed to extract that zip file to C: that I did and after that im getting,
'You've selected Xperia SP, let's go"
And it is stuck on that, getting nowhere.
Im a newbie so not have much idea if someone can help that'd be a life saviour, please.

Have u tried again after restarting the computer and phone??
I am also trying to do so but stuck on *daemon started successfully*
After that cmd window stuck there. So any one have answer please let me know.

Try flashing recovery .img file with Rashr

You can't install CWM Recovery without a CWM Rom , and I think you can't install locked bootloader on unlocked bootloader, I recommend use Flash Tools and Unlock your bootloader. And Flash a Kernel with TWRP Recovery and Wipe and Flash a CWM Rom (huashan ROM for Xperia SP) after it you get CWM Recovery and TWRP Recovery for extra I recommend use Helium Kernel to do it

hello can you help me with somehting i am on android 4.3 in xperia sp yesterday i have deleted my prima files by mistake can you upload them for me from your phoone

I found installing XZDualRecovery very easy. You get TWRP, CWM and PhilZ.
-install supersu from play store
-activate usb debug in developer options
-unzip xzdualrecovery file
-run install program from the unzipped folder
-follow steps on the screen, you will have to grant supersu access on your phone at some point.

[Q] HELP!! (D415) Soft bricked after installing xposed framework for lollipop!

After doing the xposed lollipop rom update for armv7 for my LG optimus l90 and I flashed it using twrp...... my phone rebooted like normal but once it got to T-mobile it got stuck there so I booted in twrp custom recovery mode and wipe the dalvik cache and the data. That did not work so I did a factory reset, now everytime I try to boot my phone it shows the LG logo and boots into recovery mode!! I don't have access to download mode because I unlocked the bootloader with this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/general/guide-unlock-bootloader-t-mobile-l90-t2836457
So I only have access to Recovery mode (it is stock recovery though because I did a format through stock Recovery) (yes I have SD card) and fastboot!!
Does anyone else know how to fix this?? I think I might but I don't know where to get stock lg roms that are zip files and I can only get .kdz for the LG flash tool, but I cannot use that because I don't have Download mode.
Please help! Also I do not have root permissions anymore, so If there is a way to gain root through Recovery or Fastboot for this device that would be great!

Anyone? please?

Sorry it took so long to respond, hopefully you fixed the issue but you will need to obtain a computer with flash tool and required componets installed and SDK tools, you have the chance to use the "fastboot oem unlock" to unlock bootloader then "fastboot flash .img recover" or you could "fastboot flash laf.img laf" to restor laf.img to use download mode then to enter it and restore to KDZ
