I use Titanium Backup, best one out there. Paid version even better smile.gif

Of course, this backup is useless without root. So make sure you're rooted if you want to use it.

You and Andrew suggest it..

I will go with it..

Thanks..

You can enter recovery? Maybe later I make a zip for you to flash..
Hopefully you can reboot your phone after that..

Place the zip in your ext sd card though...

ARE YOU on stock .423 ?

try to flash the dual recovery again.. it might work..

off the phone, plug in usb on your phone first.. then upon switching on the phone. faster plug in the phone/pc and see..

ofcuz the dual recovery.bat file must be running first..
see if that'll help.
and yes, you can flash other region, since you're going to use custom firmware..

1. transfer .apk file to your sdcard or ext_sdcard (your choice)
2. Settings -> Security -> "Check" Install unknown sources
3. since your are using stock, there should be an app called "File Commander", navigate to the place where you stored your .apk file

4. just install.
yes mang, im afraid it'll all be wiped..

when you boot, does your LED light turn green?
or no light at all?
*
A red light..
then sony logo..

it should be green first..

you know how to force off/restart the phone?

POWER + volume up

try every method (even if its almost impossible) before fully wiping it to fix. nod.gif

okay i guess you gotta wipe, then read the instructions like ChuanHong posted.

-- always rmb, after changing any rom, flash root (with doomlord rooting kit) then flash dual recovery (by [nut]).. thought some rom they provide some steps when you flash their rom tho..

Succesfully flash stock rom..without full wipe..Yeay!!!
Thanks..
