[Q] install CWM on locked bootloader - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi everybody,
i rooted my XZ and tried to install the CWM and the unlocked bootloader status said no allowed........so i tried to searched for CWM for locked bootloader ....and downloaded from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187363
but i did not understand what does this sentence mean ?? (Run the script to install the recovery).......
and when i downloaded the CWM from the previous mentioned thread, it gave me a compressed file, so i extracted it and gave me one folder with name (files) which contains some files, and a file under name of (install.bat).....
so where is the CWM file in the extracted files???.....

Install.bat double click

follow the thread to install clockworkmod.
If u dont have Xrecovery i've attached one for u.
Extract the rar and u'll find 3 files.
Using Root Explorer place the 3 files in /system/bin/...dont forget to change the permissions to r/w
boot into xrecovery by pressing the back key while on the sony Ericsson logo and flash cwm recovery.
But I already have xrecovery.. and my phone version 2.2 now, but don't have clock workmod..

then just follow the thread and download the req. cwm recovery and install it using xrecovery!
If you are having xRecovery, flash "Amend" package
So that means place the attachment in the sdcard..
switch off ur phone and boot into xrecovery...then select "install zip from sdcard"
select CWM-recovery-3.2.0.0-r3-e15-Amend.zip and flash it!
thats it.
And than what should I continue to do?

It is not error my phone?? (sorry for my question) before I have 2.3+ version on my phone and don't have cwd like this... I read the threat from Google, they give me to flash cwd****.zip, ( I forget what cwd ***.zip file that I flash) I download it and flash, it brick my phone.. so scare... if I do it is can be? Cause now I am stand for mini cm 6 version 2.2.
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
the method i follow usually is I flash the GingerDX v14 using xRecovery.
This way after flashing the rom i have both xrecovery and cwm.
Maybe u can do the same to flash cwm and then flash watever rom u wish to install using cwm.
This is the easiest method and brick proof.
I've done this several times before.
So it mean if I flash cwd already, I must flash other room, do like this I can't brick my phone?
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
there is no problem if u flash other rom from minicm 2.2..u wont brick ur device....and there is no need to flash any other rom after flashing cwm its upto u. the recovery will work just fine!
So just flash cwd.zip normal ?? Ok... i try now if successful I will come here to say " IT WORK " . but if not see u tomorrow...

Maybe a silly question, but you did wipe data when you updated right?

Downloaded a different ftf and that one worked, must have been a faulty download...
EDIT: Nope, I tested by uninstalling one app, when I tried to uninstall others it failed again.
I had total success with this method, how every I have also had a reboot :/
Not sure what caused it and couldn't get at my pc to get hold of any kind of log.
Might just try a pure stock unrooted jb for a while and wait to see if problem is reproduced or reported by other users.
Otherwise, great work Doom, look forward to your feature packed DoomKernel once your exams are dusted!!(best of luck btw)

Flash back stock kernel. There are no working custom kernels yet as far as I know

That'll get rid of CWM. There is no way to have CWM with the kernel provided by Sony. What doom has done is included CWM in essentially what is his version of the stock kernel.

10.3.A.0.423 Root - Zipaligned - Deodexed - Rom

Hey guys.
I updated the rom to V2 with the new Advance Stock Kernel with Recovery v07 made by DoomLoRD.
Its for C6603 models with unlocked bootloader.
Before you install the .zip file i recommend to wipe your phone.
Here is the link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwG6whTUXyqHRU01QmdtZ0tSb00/edit?usp=sharing
The only thing you have to do is to flash the .ZIP file in recovery (CWM or TWRP)
When the phone is ready you a have 10.3.A.0.423 Generic NL (Dutch) rom that is:
- Rooted with recovery menu (Advance Stock Kernel with Recovery v07)
- Deodexed
- Zipaligned
Credits:
DooMLoRD for his updater script and Advance Stock Kernel with Recovery v07
Hope you like V2 of this rom.
Works Great !!!
Thanks!!!
if i do a wipe,am i gonna loose my photos,songs etc...????????
can i only flash this .ZIP file and make it DEODEXED?????

What region is this ROM for/from? ROMs sometimes contain extra/different applications based on its region.
And I assume this is unbranded, correct?
Edit: also, any idea if this would work on C6602 or not?

Just go into the ROM and look in /system/etc/product/applications to see what apps it has... also /system/etc/customization/applications. Personally I get rid of all those unnecessary apps anyway, saves me the trouble uninstalling them besides you can get them from the play store anyway.
Yes this ROM will work on the C6602... that's what I have and it runs fine.
Steps:
-Make sure you have the latest recovery:

OR
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2167381
-Backup all your apps (titanium backup)
-Backup your Sdcard0 just in case
-Nandroid(make a backup of your currnt ROM)
-I like to do a full wipe
-Flash this ROM
-Turn off phone then straight into flashmode and use the latest flashtool here: http://androxyde.github.io/ and flash the stripped down ftf file for C6603 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42917602&postcount=1 (15mb)

Thank you, I appreciate the feedback.
One more question, any idea if this ROM includes the Arabic language or not?
Uploading 10.3.A.0.423 Version 2
Hey guys.
I updated the rom with the new Advance Stock Kernel with Recovery v07 from DooMLoRD.
Its uploading now and i will share it tomorrow.
See changes at first post!!!
I can confirm that it's working fine on C6602.
And to answer my own question; no, it doesn't include the Arabic language.
Edit: there's one problem with v2; for some reason, it seems I've have lost access to the recovery and I'm not sure why. In any case, I used XZDualRecovery to get it back.
Maybe because You used the stripped .ftf?
Thats a stock kernel....
You dont need that anymore.

the problem is your "unlocked" bootloader. you can only get OTA updates with a "relocked" or "locked" bootloader.
just use fastboot and type in "fastboot oem lock" and it should work if your still on stock-rom.
Would it be named "OTA_WL_JB_spcs_wwe".zip

what are you trying to install? an official OTA update or a zip-file which you downloaded?
The OTA. I havent downloaded any roms at all I'm still on stock
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium
so you've downloaded a zip-file which contains the OTA update, right? if yes, you'd just have to flash this file in your recovery.
As I understand it, Your phone has a OTA available via [Settings - About - Software Updates]
You have downloaded and tried to install - but it boots the custom recovery instead of the stock recovery.
To fix this you would need to install a stock recovery.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2373111
Hope that was what you was after.

this was what i thought too, but then he mentioned his zip file... when you do an OTA via settings, you should never see this zip...
but i agree with SolCenva, flash stock recovery, lock your bootloader and it must work..

Flash the .IMG found here first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41908134
