Getting into recovery after flash

I need some help with my rooted Xperia TL. I downloaded cwm recovery for locked bootloadersand it worked the first time by powering off then hold volume down button while pressing the power button. Then I made a back up and proceeded to flash a custom Rom. Well the Rom that I flashed,the WiFi was broken so I tried and tried but could not get it into recovery. I even tried through flashtool and it kept giving me error messages. I tried downloading the flashable cwm and that wouldn't work either. Finally I had to have Sony pc companion repair my device. Now I would like to restore after rooting again and it won't let me into recovery. I tried uninstalling and reinstall of cwm and it still won't work. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. Every time I try it puts me into safe mode. I would post this on xda but I wanted to terry here first. Help!

I'm moving this thread to Android development. Hopefully you'll get some advices there.

New SSD: How to get into Recovery?

Hi,
I am going to be installing a SSD into my 2011 15" Macbook Pro. After I install the SSD, how should I boot into OS X Recovery? Should I use Internet Recovery even though my Mac came with OS X 10.7; Now running 10.10.1? Or should I create an OS X Recovery USB Drive? Once I get into Recovery, I will use my Time Capsule restore to my SSD.

Hi mikecao2000,
As OS X Recovery is dependent on having the recovery parition on your MacBook Pro's current working hard drive present, you will be unable to use this once that drive is removed. See this article about using Recovery -
OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
Note that if you use Internet Recovery, the original OS X version that came with the computer (in your case Mac OS X 10.7 Lion) will be reinstalled.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

I can get into recovery through pressing 0 or f12

My laptop is Toshiba Setellite s55t-b5260.
I want to recover my OS system. I tried to press 0 or f12 when start the laptop to get into recovery. However, nothing happens. The laptop just start as usual.
Can anyone tell me whether I didn't follow the right process or there is something wrong with the laptop?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I just want to know whether F12 or 0 method can work on my laptop. In case of system failure, I can recover through this way.
The best way to prepare for this is to create recovery media. See p. 47 in the User's Manual. You can use that to reach the recovery environment or to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents. Select the Repair option when you boot it to reach the recovery environment.
Another way to prepare is to use Windows 8.1 to create a repair flash drive. (Optical discs are no longer used for this in Windows 8.1.) This feature is built into Windows, but may turn out to be the same as what Toshiba provides for your OEM version.

Otherwise, F12 should work during boot. Scroll down to THROUGH F12 AT STARTUP here. But some report difficulty with that (as you have).

IPod touch disabled, cannot get into recovery mode or unlock to enter passcode.

I've got an 8GB iPod touch that is disabled, cannot be unlocked, and it will not go into recovery mode. When I plug it into iTunes, it says "iTunes could not connect to the iPod touch because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPod touch before it can be used with iTunes." At the top is a red banner that says "iPod is disabled connect to iTunes" and it won't let me unlock it to enter a passcode and I've tried the recovery mode where you plug it in when powered off holding the home button, but I guess the iPod isn't updated enough for it to work (doesn't look like the new Apple OS) because when I do that, it just powers on like normal. What do I need to do because I'm definitely at a stopping point. Please help me get this iPod into working condition.

Try Recovery Mode again. Timing is critical so it may not have been done correctly the first time. Detailed instructions at: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.

Close your iTunes,

(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

@spkumar7
Unfortunately with S40 there is very little that you can do, try removing battery for 10 minutes then replacing and re-try; apart from that a visit to a Nokia Care Point is now indicated.

Then you are out of luck.
Take the device to Apple for an Out of Warranty replacement or find a local repair shop. Without a functioning power button it is impossible to determine if the issue is the battery or something else.

If that Article does not resolve it... then you have a problem.
Perhaps a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required..
Be sure to make an appointment first...
Note:
That error message may be indicative of the Device being Hacked / jailbroken.... If this is the case then you are on your own.

    If this method does not work, then you will need to fully Restore your
    device as New
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.
If none of the above do what you need, then do the following:
Placing your device into recovery (DFU) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
       until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.
