first you will need to be on gingerbread
then you should install cwm recovery from Odin (no unlocking required)
then just choose your favourite rom and flash with cwmr

I search and get a thread that I can start to root and instal cwm on froyo ,is that right?
how about kernel and unlock bootloader ??do you mean the default kernel has support all custom rom ??
no need to root froyo just upgrade to gb with the help of Odin multi downloader
we have recovery.img so no need to change the kernel and in every rom its supported kernel is baked
so I must upgrade to official ginger then rooting and instal cwm ??
yes you will need to be on gingerbread either official or unofficial
and rooting is not required to install cwm recovery
and a big warning is do not use rom manager on this phone to install cwm, mobile will get brick

do you mean no need root to upgrade & mod this device??
yes no root for installing custom rom
as we are not flashing recovery from from manager and Odin do not require root
but if you want to be on stock and want to modify it then you will need root
Thanks for your time....nice to see this forum,God bless you !!!

Bootloader unlocking is the case of HTC phones. In Samsung phone, you don't've to worry about unlocking bootloader

fastboot a kernel which has cwm.
what I did is after installing the JyROM, I flashed(it is mentioned in the steps if I want to get root) the flashable version of SuperSU v1.91(I just guessed this version of supersu because it is not mentioned in the steps what version to use, hehe, but luckily, it is fine after rebooting).
then I installed again CWM.

Its not necessary to use TWRP or CWM but its recommended because its better than stock recovery.. That's up to you whether you want to use it or not.. If you want to use either TWRP or CWM then download the appropriate CoCore E kernel because it has any one of them (depending on what version you downloaded)... You can refer the kernel's thread for instructions on how to install it..
Alternative you can use CWM with stock kernel too...

I am quite new in android device tweaking. But I have rooted my Xperia Z1 14.4.A.0.157 and installed CWM. After this went to install custom rom to my device. And it was not posible because it became Z1 Compact amami from normal size Z1 honami. How I can restore it to honami if posible without removing root and CMW ? ? ? ?

did you made a backup with CWM before flashing your wrong custom rom?

The problem I was facing was not the rom, but kernel, after all experiments I did trying to root it and install CWM, i had changed the kernel from honami to amami, that was the problem. But I have fixed it by simply finding right honami kernel and flashing it to device. And yes I did make a Backup

Try installing recoveries from this thread
and before flashing the rom , perform Full Wipe (dalvik, system, data, cache)

CWM is outdated. Use TWRP or Philz.
I prefer TWRP though

If possible, flash this Tangerine 7.1 in your currently installed recovery
Flash this stock FOTAkernel too to make sure that there is no recovery in the FOTAkernel
Reboot your device. To get into recovery, use the volume down button when the lights appears. This will summon TWRP
Wipe everything you can.
go to "Wipe"
Advanced Wipe
Tick Dalvik Cache, System, Cache, Data
Slide the slider to wipe the ticked partitions
Go back to main menu
Flash the ROM zip
Go to "Install"
Tap on "Storage: xxxxxx" to select your storage that contains the flashable zip of your ROM and gapps. Assuming you put it in the sdcard, then it should be "External SDCard"
Navigate to the ROM zip, and select it
After that, hit the button "Add more Zips"
Make sure "Zip file signature verification" is disabled
Slide the slider to start flashing process
Choose "Reboot system"
Your steps end here.

Please use this thread instead of PMing me It would be better to ask such questions publicly.
To get yourself a persisting TWRP, kindly use the method on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...-twrp-f2fs-support-xperia-sp-huashan-t3150230
Flash the zip and you are done. The zip is signed, so if you dont have any recovery but Cyanogen Recovery you can actually flash this.
