Hello,
I rooted my LT30P with a bat program from this site, then i installed CWM. The problem is that I cannot update my phone through OTA because when I tap restart and update, it enters CWM and shows me an error. I think it's because I need the original recovery. Can I get the original recovery back without reflashing my Rom? I just want the original recovery to update my phone, nothing more.
I dont understand what is your probleme exactly but did you tried to use Flashtool ?

I rooted my phone with bin4ry method. Then, I installed CWM for my Xperia T (found in a thread on xda). Now my phones asks me for update, but I can't update because of CWM. Even if I try, it downloads the update package normally and tells me it will restart and install the new update. When it restarts, it enters CWM and tries to flash the new version. After a seconds, a error pops up saying there is a problem etc.. Before I installed CWM, I could update my phone without flashing it from pc and so on. I saw you told something about flashtool. What is it for, and what can I do with it?
Is your Xperia T Unlocked ? If yes Then Install Team Win Recovery 2.7.0.0 with fastboot and Install a Costum Rom you will have a batter version than the officiel

Why would he need to do that? He can flash custom rom from current recovery, he doesn't unlocked bootloader for that. He needs unlocked bootloader only if wants to flash AOSP based rom (CM, OMNI...).
Hi. I have a Xperia Z1 C6903 (honami) and I tried to install Cyanogenmod on it by following this tutorial:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_honami
What I did:
1. Unlocked bootloader, had no problems with that.
2. Went to fastboot, flashed over Boot.img, after that I couldn't get to recovery (probably because I didn't install it first)
3. Tried another Boot.img for the Free Xperia project, after that my device had a flashing red light.
4. Reflashed the previous CM Boot.img back.
3. I was told to install recovery, so I installed TWRP (Still couldn't get to recovery mode)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/general/rec-twrp-2-8-6-0-z1-honami-t3074845
Now I've downloaded Flashtool along with a general FTF file, my next plan was to flash the whole thing, but I'm asking if there was something I did wrong and how to fix up this mess?
Right now by going into recovery mode I get stuck at Sony logo, tried waiting 10 minutes but nothing.
EDIT: Tried to fix it by installing Emma, reinstalled stock lollipop ROM, and TA (I think that's recovery) and nothing, can't even see sony logo anymore
EDIT2: Flashed stock ROM with Flashtool, still doesn't work...
Hello everybody,
I rooted my Xperia Z1 about 8 months ago in order to install the 5.1.1 update which didn't roll out for my device probably because it was a global version (5.0.1 was the last OTA). I did a clean install with no problems, flashed DualRecovery, SuperSu, and BusyBox was working just fine. Everything was working perfectly.
About 3 months ago, I tried updating BusyBox, only to tell that the update failed (couldn't install in the path it used to be try changing the path), I read and read, and found that the solution was to delete a certain file from root that prevented me from modifying certain folders and their content(even with root access), and then do a clean install in a different path than the former one. However, I couldn't gain root access to my files, no root explorer worked! It bugged me, but I was busy at that time, so I couldn't resolve it.
Few weeks later I tried rebooting into recovery, but no method worked, no apps, no key combination, no adb, nothing at all worked! After 2 hard days I managed to install TWRP recovery using NUTS recovery project. I rebooted several times, and it was still working. I then installed BusyBox with no problems, and everything was back to perfect. Later I decided to install CM 12.1 because I always used on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus and I always loved it. So using my now working recovery, I backed everything up on a USB and then flashed CM 12.1 WITHOUT its recovery along with a GAPPS package.
CM was installed, which then rebooted into its recovery and tried to install the GAPPS package. The GAPPS installation was a fail. CM recovery asked me to try using TWRP to do such installation ( go figure! ); in fact, CM recovery couldn't flash anything besides another CM 12.1 update. After this point I wasn't able in any possible way to enter TWRP nor install it. Even if I want to flash using fastboot I couln't! adb reads my device just fine, and can use it to reboot into flashmode, which doesn't seem to be functioning properly. The blue light turns on but there isn't a thing on the screen, fastboot can't recognize is it and hence I can't flash anything using fastboot.
Should I reflash partitions if this could be done on Z1? ( I did it before on my Nexus ) Can I use Odin? I even doubt I can enter download mode on my phone
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Anyone?
No?
Ok! :sad:
Is your bootloader unlocked? To run cm on our z1 you need an unlocked bootloader because cm needs a custom kernel.
You can try Sony companion app or androxydes flashtool in combination with a pre-rooted ftf to reach stock again.
The thing is even Sony flashtool (Emma) is not reading my phone, it detects a device in the USB port, but not the device!
I managed to install TWRP using TWRP Manager app that I downloaded from APKmirror website. I installed GApps and it is working fine right now.
TWRP Manager said that I should have a FOTA recovery or something like that, and if I don't have one then I am installing the recovery on my responsibility.
Still no bootloader or flash mode. Neither Emma nor Odin are identifying the phone. Although my phone lights blue, but the screen shows nothing!

AFAIK, Emma hasn't been updated for a LONG time. It will remain defunct with no updates and no support. Use flashtool from androxyde if you want to continue using Sony's stock ROM.
No bootloader or flash mode detection: That usually means the drivers that interfaces with your phone is missing. Search around XDA for the correct fastboot and adb drivers for your PC's OS.
My approach for fixing your issue: Find the right drivers and put a stable Lollipop ROM on your sdcard. If you have fastboot working (make sure you have unlocked bootloader), flash boot image from the Lollipop zip and flash the recovery image found in some Lollipop threads. If everything goes well, your phone will bootloop, but you'll have working recovery. Press Vol Down when the Sony Logo appears on screen to enter TWRP. Since you saved a backup of your phone elsewhere, erase all the partitions (minus sdcard), format them to ext4, and flash the Lollipop ROM from your sdcard.
let me explain everything why have i created this thread.
My phone was only charging when switched off. I was on Lineage OS (by daniel_hk) at that time so i thought it is because of that custom ROM.
I, then, intended to flash stock ROM, this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/development/official-build-lenovo-k3-note-k50a40-6-t3370537
debloated version.
I booted into TWRP recovery (v3.1.1-2 by daniel_hk).
Wiped everything and tried flashing K3 Note S433 Debloated ROM from the link i mentioned above. I received error 7. Now i was stuck without any OS in the phone.
Then I tried to flash other version of twrp (3.1.1-0) in phone using sp flash tool but received another error- "PMT is changed for the ROM! It must be downloaded" :/
I googled and found the solution is format the flash using sp flash tool. I did it and flashed the recovery but my phone went dead completely! No responses at all.
Finally i decided to install the original S433 ROM in K3 Note using SP Flash tool but then i receved another error - "BROM: Error 4008"
Then I tried another version of SP Flash tool, v5.1628 (previously v5.1604), Received the PMT changed error then formatted again then flashed the Original ROM.
Now my phone is Unbricked but still not charging and i have no IMEI also.
Favours/Helps that i want-
1. Main thing i want my phone to charge when it is powered on. Watched this video on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7qtDMu_WTU but I am not able to enter Engineering Mode.
2. I want to install debloated version of this ROM through TWRP and for that i have to flash twrp now but to flash TWRP i will need to format using SP Flash tool first (becuase of error "PMT is Changed in the ROM") and if i do that my phone will be bricked again! If i somehow flashed the recovery then i'll not be able to flash the debloated version of the ROM because of the "Error 7".
3. Want my IMEI back
Any Help will be really appreciated.
And sorry if any similar thread already exists I couldn't find the best solution for me anywhere so i created my own!
dude , first thing to remember;
even if your os is completely gone and recovery option is still working , then don't ever do these stupid things.
I've been in your place . But i always knows that if your recovery is still working then there's 99.9% you can fix it.but it seems like you've ruined everything with other flash tools. Dude , unlike every phones, k3 note has it's own k3 note manager software available in xda forums. You can download twrp backups here . Lenovo stock rom backup was here, only you have to do is download and place it on the correct folder. Then press restore!!!
But you ruined everything. I don't know if it turn on again. You came here after all of this and asking us to help now? I
install a custom rom after installing the stockrom (which got error7 during install)
after u get error7 when installing the firmware,,you wont have any os for the phone to boot.
just flash someother custom rom after u got that error.. phone will boot up.
Please compare whether all files of the stockrom you downloaded are extracted,i got error 7,and when i investigated the reason was that one of the file inside the rar file was not extracted.which inturn caused error during instalation

PC companion's recovery tool says my phone is locked so I cannot access the next step
Do I need other tools to rescue my phone?
Solved. PC companion works well.
