And ArcS, Pro, Play, Ray can be run CWM with event1 ??

I tested with my live walkman and i cannot press any button just i can press volume down to enter CWM

if we make charger run at the top,it will prevent accidental recovery trigger when offline charging.

another things :

Code:
cat /dev/input/event1 > /dev/keycheck&

that code represent all of botton to trigger recovery.

we can add

Code:
	###keycheck
	keypressed=`cat /dev/keycheck`
	if [ "$keypressed" != "${keypressed/[COLOR="Red"]s[/COLOR]/}" ]
	then

to have spesific button for recovery trigger.
that "s" must be repleaced according to spesific button output

i tested event1 on Xperia Neo

/dev/input/event2 in Live With Walkman represent to all button

you can confirm it using this method :
1. plugin device with usb debugging on
2. run "adb shell cat /dev/input/event2"
3. press some button there will be some character appear from the shell

    This is ClockworkMod Recovery (v.5.0.2.7) ported to work on Xperia mini (ST15 and S51SE versions) / Xperia mini pro / Xperia Active / Xperia Arc

    Introduction
    This CWM recovery is for people who don't want to unlock their bootloaders risking their DRM / warranty. It is not 'true' recovery per se, since it installs in /system, but all the CWM functions should work.

    Features

    • ADB root shell
    • reboot system now
    • apply update from sdcard
    • wipe data / factory reset
    • wipe cache partition
    • install zip from sdcard
    • backup and restore
      • backup
      • restore
      • advanced restore
    • mounts and storage
      • mount / unmount /cache
      • mount / unmount /data
      • mount / unmount /sdcard
      • mount / unmount /system
      • mount / unmount /sd-ext
      • mount / unmount /cache
      • format /cache
      • format /data
      • format /sdcard
      • format /system
      • format /sd-ext
      • mount USB storage
    • advanced
      • reboot recovery
      • wipe Dalvik Cache
      • wipe Battery Stats
      • report Error
      • key Test
      • partition SD Card
        • Ext Size
        • Swap Size (Set this to 0)
        • Rest Size is for vfat
      • fix permissions
    • power off


    Usage

    When booting your phone and when the 'Sony Ericsson' logo appear, press and release continuously the volume down button.
    Once you are in the CWM recovery, use the volume keys to navigate upwards / downwards, the 'home' key to select, the 'back' key to go back.



    Requirements

    • Stock 2.3 ROM
    • Root



    Installation
    Download CWM from here and extract its contents.

    Using Root explorer: copy ALL the contents of the system folder (system/bin and system/xbin) to /system (system/bin and system/xbin respectively), then give 755 permissions to those files, especially to /system/bin/chargemon, or you'll get bootloop. Double check everything before rebooting.

    Notes to everyone

    Do NOT use this recovery if you are not in Stock 2.3 firmware.

    Thanks but i'm not sure about that :

    Copy recovery.tar, charger and chargemon to /system/bin. CHMOD 755

    Copy sh to /system/xbin/. CHMOD 777

    Am i right ??

    This's run perfectly in WT19i
    755 should be enough for all files.

    For charger you might need to:
    chmod u+s /system/bin/charger

    for offline charging. It hasn't been tested though.

    nAa found the cause of problem with restoring. New package will be released soon.
