Problem with kernel (2.6.32.61 and 2.6.32.60) - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My goal was to install the ROM JB-4.1.2.
I've rooted my phone with flashtool, uncloked the bootloader also with flashtool and since then everything went great.Next step which wasn't hard at all was to flash the kernel via flashtool and it also happened with great result.The problem appeared when I was turning phone on, the system haven't turned up and my phone had showed only CWM Recovery.I knew that something went wrong but I made full wipe, cache and dalvik cache and installed JB-4.1.2. The CWM has said that system has been installed but when I've tried to boot phone JB didn't show up; again there was only CWM.
I've tried few times the procedure ( installing stock 2.1 android from Update Service, rooting phone with Flashtool, and flashing the kernel) but I'm facing the same problem with CWM.
Maybe I did something wrong, but don't know exactly what; or maybe my phone is not suitable for kernel?
I'm waiting for help!

Did you format the partitions before flashing the rom?

Yes, I did and nothing has changed.I again saw a screen with CWM and under options to choose at CWM I had a message from CWM like that:
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

Can anybody help with that odd problem?

Click to collapse
It gave Error can't mount cache...
Anyways I fixed this by :
1) ODINed back to Stock KF1
2) ODINed the Stock KH3 tar file onto it
3) ODINed boog's kernel
4) Installed Fasty II V2.0 using CWM 4.0
Now everything seems to be fine again.
No errors while going into Recovery!

Does it reboot on going to recovery? If recovery is still accessible try clearing data,cache and dalvik.
Smart Flash Tool doesn't touch cache,userdata,nv,fota or lgdrm.
Try patching it with a different recovery.
i installed aroma file manager and deleted recovery folder which includes log and last_log files on cache
now it is ok.
i wiped cache and formatted too.
but it didnt deleted.
i deleted manually and problem solved
thnx

[Q] CWM stuck at formatting /data

I have a Galaxy Mini GT-S5570 running CM 10.1 which was installed about a month back. Yesterday my phone suddenly crashed and after rebooting it got stuck in the boot animation (cyanogenmod logo). I tried wiping the cache and data but when the CM recovery (v4.0.0.5) starts formatting /data it gets stuck. It displays formatting /data... and its their for forever. PS I was experiencing frequent reboots and hangs after I flashed the new badass kernel!
What i tried to did:
1. Updated CWM to latest available version but the problem exists.
2. Tried to restore my backup of cm 10.1 rom but it stucks at 'Restoring Data'.
3. Installed stock rom via odin. When Odin says Close serial port and wait until rebooting, the phone automatically boots into stock recovery
and it says:
" Installing update...
-- Applying Muti-CSC --
Multi_CSC : there are common apks
Multi_CSC : comm_so
Can't access to '/system/csc/ATL/system'.
Formatting /cache...
-- Applying Muti-CSC --
Multi_CSC : there are common apks
Multi_CSC : comm_so
Can't access to '/system/csc/ATL/system'. "
Odin says PASS but the phone is still stuck at stock recovery.
4. Wiped cache succesfully via stock recovery but it stucks at wiping data/reset (formatting /data...)
5. I then installed back CWM via odin. CWM displays the following message:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
Any help is surely appreciated.
Thanks.
anyone?
You got so many issues, and seems that you have tried a lot of things already, now first 1 check your sdcard if is it working properly, 2 format system from cwm and then install stock rom via odin (if on samsung logo there isnt boot sound then install stock rom again n again untill sucess) 3after once on stock try reflashing your custom rom.
If still not helpful start panicking

Stuck with Clockworkmod non-touch

Hi
I was able to s-off, install a recovery and root my device OK.
I installed TWRP as part of that process and then installed Clockworkmod while I was testing out Cyanogenmod.
I want to go back to TWRP (or at least Clockworkmod touch) but my phone will only boot into Clockworkmod (non-touch)
Things I've tried:
Flashed TWRP from fastboot
fastboot erase cache
But every time the phone only boots into Clockworkmod 5.x.x.x
The clockworkmod app tells me I have TWRP and Clockworkmod installed already, but same problem when I try to reboot into TWRP from there.
This log comes up in Clockworkmod. Maybe it's relevant:
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
Anyone kind enough to help I'll be very grateful
Thanks
Flash TWRP, reboot into the phone. Go back to fastboot, flash TWRP again, and check. A different combination may work. It may take a few tries to get it going.
Fixed

[Q] Completely stumped - Bricked phone? (Odin fails to flash, CWM showing error)

Hi everyone!
I have a Galaxy S3 4G, I9305, and I have no idea what's happened to it. To make it short and sweet:
I can boot into Odin, it has triggered the counter.
To be exact it says:
HTML:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9305
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (3 counts)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
I tried to flash a new CWM tar-file, as well as TWRP and a Sammy-ROM (can't remember which one), everyone gives it a FAIL in Odin. The program itself shows "Added!" when I connect my phone, so it's something. Still, it fails me on the tar-files I've tried, no specific reason, just a fail.
When I open CWM, I'm greeted with these messages:
HTML:
CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4 : : CF-v1.5
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
These messages will come up every time I enter an option like advanced, mount etc. If I try to select "install zip from sdcard" I get "Can't mount /sdcard/", and if I try to install zip from internal sdcard, the phone reboots.
If I try to wipe the phone, it says "formatting /data..." for a few seconds, before it reboots.
Is there any hope at all for this phone, or is it completely bricked? Could it be hardware related?
Thanks to everyone replying!
Try to flash latest version of TWRP and format everything again.
Thanks for your reply!
As I stated in the post, everything I flash gives me an error - TWRP as well
Anything else I can do?
