  • Yes you can try, it may work...Nothing will happen to your device...you can surely give a try. ( Do make backup before giving a try...titanium backup.)

• hey said to enter in recovery mode we need to keep pressing the vol up button ,
  does it means pressing it repeatedly(again and again) or pressing it continuosly?

  • As soon you see sony logo on screen keep pressing volume up button untill you see recovery seen..
