[CWM-TWRP]Xperia S Dual Recovery for locked/unlocked bootloaders

Zorbeyd · Feb 3, 2014

Dual Recovery for locked-unlocked bootloaders. TWRP 2.6.3 - CWM 6.0.3 works together!

Warning 1 : I am not responsible for bricked phones..
Warning 2 : I am not user of Xperia S, so need testers for learn is it working... (working-confirmed)
Warning 3 : If you are using CM10 for locked bootloader, dont install this. It'll broke your initframs...
Warning 4 : If you have CWM(with chargemon hack) you may get problem. Do fresh install without recoveries...

How it works ?
-When booting your phone, BLUE led will appear.
--Volume UP enters TWRP 2.6.3
--Volume DOWN enters CWM 6.0.3

On CWM, " USB MOUNT STORAGE" works.

If you have TWRP in your Kernel then it wont be replaced, as this is not kernel based. For that you need to flash stock kernel then use this mod. you will get Dual recovery.

Can you share logs?

If adb works on your pc, it must be there..
Locate : /data/local/tmp/dualrecovery.log

testing dual recovery

I installed the .bat, the installation was successful, but after reboot, only allows me to access CWM, I have rebooted 4 times, each pressing a different button, vol +, vol-, power, camera ... but only open CWM

anyway, thanks for the hard work, I have locked bootloader, and if necessary, I try again with a new one .bat
