kernel located on download page:

Hi

Saw this on the download page (http://nut.xperia-files.com/):

Z1C-XZDRKernel2.7.121-BETA.flashable.zip (19.22MB).

I have already Z1C-lockeddualrecovery2.7.121-BETA.flashable.zip (7.23MB) so what is the benefits changing kernel?

I'm currently on:

14.3.A.0.757 Generic NO 1279-4149 (nism0o) (4.4.2)

Will the kernel work?
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
The kernel version is for use on unlocked bootloader devices only.

If your bootloader is locked, you can not use any custom kernel.
[Sony Cross-Device General] torjohron:
My bootloader is unlocked, what is the benefits of this kernel?

[MENTION=410007]Nut[/MENTION], i have a pre-installed PhilZ Recovery dat comes with my rom, it boots first before yur recovery could boot. is it possible to remove tha built-in recovery of tha rom?
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
It will have the recoveries inside the kernel partition instead of in the ROM. The NDRUtils app can however still control it.

That actually depends on your ROM, does it come with a custom kernel?

Which device and what ROM are you using?
[Sony Cross-Device General] whalesplaho:
using Xperia V JB 4.3..... ROM; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2662848

there is a boot.img in tha flashable zip buh seems tha recovery comes with tha ROM i think...
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
Better check with the rom chef then...
[Sony Cross-Device General] itandy:
[MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION]Any solution to this md5 issue? I'm using the latest ZR-lockeddualrecovery2.7.121-BETA but still encounter the same problem. I'm also using ZR .101 firmware.

red LED burn?

Guys, I can't find any information here but the first thing that happens after switching on the phone is that the LED burns red, then turns green after the quick two vibrations. I can access TWRP without issues. What does the red LED burn actually mean? :eek:
[Sony Cross-Device General] ->---:
That means, by pressing vol up you and waiting until it gets yellow, you can enter the recovery that comes with your custom ROM.

Btw, does XZDR work with PAC ROM? I am asking because it is a merge from multiple ROMs, one of them is CM, where XZDR does not work.
[Sony Cross-Device General] DsvCdsSoftware:
How the probability on this works for Xperia L 4.2.2, beacuse I'm using a kernel with CWM, and I want TWRP, because it's more friendly user, you know...
[Sony Cross-Device General] RHBH:
[MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION] already said on OP at many times that this is only for stock ROM.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Olivier:
The Xperia L is not (yet) supported.
[Sony Cross-Device General] HoTsHoT89:
But I'm not on a custom ROM - I'm on the stock .757. The LED lights up red even before the Sony logo.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ->---:
Okay. I never worked with stock ROM. The moment I got my Z1 I rooted and customed it. Battery empty? No matter if it is booting normally.
[Sony Cross-Device General] itandy:
[MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION]Further to my question, I found that the recovery actually cannot find nandroid-md5.sh when it comes to generating the md5 file. Also this problem only exists in PhilZ Touch. CWM works fine.
[Sony Cross-Device General] shoey63:
[MENTION=5159802]HoTsHoT89[/MENTION]

Red LED means recovery is being loaded into RAM. When done, green LED comes on for volume up to enter Philz, or volume down to enter TWRP.
[Sony Cross-Device General] HoTsHoT89:
Exactly what I needed to know. Thanks!
[Sony Cross-Device General] anthonythangaraj:
Temporary fix is to disable md5 check in phillZ setting.

Also am getting error related to brightness when entering Philz recovery and unable to change brightness.

"E: Unable to create brightness sys file!"
[Sony Cross-Device General] shoey63:
Must be an error in Philz sources. Will have a look and try to fix. ZR right?
[Sony Cross-Device General] itandy:
Yes, ZR. Thanks!
[Sony Cross-Device General] azeunkn0wn:
I'm confused

I had an Xperia V and i need a guide which one should i use. I tried the XZ one (Because that is what the guide in our forum says) and got a big resolution and does not fit on my Screen. Tried the XT one and can't install a ROM. i get an Error status 7.
[Sony Cross-Device General] itandy:
XT version works for V. But the installer zip file is not flashable. You need to extract it in PC and run the install.bat. Or you can download the flashable zip file and flash in recovery.
[Sony Cross-Device General] shoey63:
Philz sources look fine. If there is a file called "brightness" in

/sys/class/leds/lm3533-lcd-bl-1

, then either you are using the wrong package, or [MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION] has put the wrong Philz in his zip/installer :p
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
Actually, It might be time to clean up the patches folder for Philz on the ZR ... it might be the cause of the issues :p
[Sony Cross-Device General] ->---:
Sadly XZDR is not compatible to PAC-ROM :crying:
[Sony Cross-Device General] lbaquerizo:
I have dual revovery on UBL on my Z1 with DoomKernel V16 so I was wondering when I reboot to recovery how can i make TWRP as default ad mot cwm or philz not sure how to do that?
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
I'd like some of what you are using I think :silly:

You are asking something about doomkernel in an unrelated topic my friend, you will have to ask [MENTION=2784807]DooMLoRD[/MENTION] for an answer to that on his kernel topic.
[Sony Cross-Device General] lbaquerizo:
Lol ok ok look I am not very good at these I have flashed e kernel but afterwards I flashed latest dual recovery so thats the reason I made the question.

2.7.123 now online.

PhilZ and CWM and NDRUtils updated, some script changes reverted to make it more reliable on everything but the Xperia T and SP.

If nothing found in this version, this will become 2.8 RELEASE.

For 2.8 RELEASE we will skip the SP and the T version, to re-include it with 2.9 BETA, XZDR's next BETA round.

EXPERIMENTAL:

Support for the Xperia S added :victory: :fingers-crossed: Thanks to [MENTION=4329876]Olivier[/MENTION] for adding it! :highfive:

I've managed to purchase an Xperia P in the mean time and I'm expecting an Xperia L before this week ends, more experimental versions will arrive with 2.9 BETA. :victory:

Thanks to everybody who donated, these models are purchased secondhand exclusively on donations!

MD5 issue fixed for ZR in this build?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Tiu Fiu:
[MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION]

Just wanna say that the time problem in Philz is back in .123.

I've just created a Nandroid backup and it came with the 2009-01-01 timestamp on it. I tried setting the correct date and time, but after a reboot it goes back to the wrong date (checking the "force persist" box also goes back to unchecked as well).

Just to give you a feedback. Best regards, buddy.
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
It should, yes.
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
Try enabling the time correction in philz settings.

Weird, I'm quite sure this version was the trouble free version :x
[Sony Cross-Device General] shoey63:
Use Qualcom time deamon, not force persist. Also make sure auto restore settings is checked.

[Sony Cross-Device General] anthonythangaraj:
[MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION] Bro, It seems like you have forgotten to resize TWRP for Xperia ZR :confused: .
[Sony Cross-Device General] kingvortex:
If you don't have root, then you cannot install this recovery. The unrooted install method will not work on 4.3 firmwares.

You will have to downgrade to a rootable firmware. You should go and ask in the Q&A section for your device for more assistance, as it's off topic in this thread. ;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] rameshkotibani:
thanks
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
Oh boy... I cleaned up my code base a while back, will fix it (again) thanks for the heads up!

I'm assuming it is trying to display a 1080 theme on a 720 screen?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Tiu Fiu:
Using Qualcomm time deamon worked - and it also persisted after reboot.

Thanks [NUT] and shoey63.

Best regards to all.
[Sony Cross-Device General] anthonythangaraj:
Yes bro you are right :good: . It tries to display a 1080 theme on 720 screen.

--------------------------------------------------

Once again Thanks for the recovery. :D

I have faced the following issue in previous build and both are fixed in this .123 version. :good:

1. Time issue is fixed.

2. Brightness issue is fixed

Version ZR 2.7.124 now online for your review, let me know if TWRP is working OK now.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Felimenta97:
[NUT], I'd like to suggest one little thing: Do you think you vsn change the LED color on the boot, from RED to, well, anything else? It's not a big deal, but I get quite scared of that red LED, seriously... I feel like my device will not boot correctly.
[Sony Cross-Device General] AngelBob:
Working on it ;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
Actually, the RED led is not from XZDR:

Key check signal is Green for 3 seconds, followed by purple once it accepted a key press. The only reason for it to glow RED is when XZDR is refusing something, which means it won't allow you to boot to recovery. This can be because of an error or because of a 'donotrun' file in the XZDR folder.
[Sony Cross-Device General] anthonythangaraj:
No bro, TWRP is not resized in .124. Its displaying 1080 in 720p screen.
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
:eek:

Hmmm what the heck did I forget now? :confused:
[Sony Cross-Device General] tleung11:
Hi [NUT],

This is a success report.

My device: LT25i

android version: 4.3 build 9.2.A.1.210

rooted with SuperSU & unlocked bootloader.

installer used: XT-lockeddualrecovery2.7.123-BETA.installer.zip

run from linux.

Please note, I got a FAIL from first attempt, it's caused by adb needed to be granted access, but your script didn't "activate" that on the phone and wait for it.

It was solved by running your "bundled adb" manually before install, then I can add the key from the pop up on my phone.

After that everything run smoothly and I got dual recovery.
[Sony Cross-Device General] tleung11:
I'm sorry to report to you too early, got issue after that and PMed you the log, please have a look, thanks.
[Sony Cross-Device General] wooki:
Hello,

My device: Xperia Z Ultra (C6833)

android version: CM11 (from FreeXperia FXP317)

su: SuperSU 1.94

unlocked bootloader.

installer used: ZU-lockeddualrecovery2.7.123-BETA.flashable

I can flash it correctly but I'm not getting any logs. It seems that the cm11 flashed recovery replaces your recovery at each boot. Any idea how to prevent this?
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
This recovery package is relying on chargemon to exist, which is something cyanogenmod does not use, so it won't work at all, ever.

This recovery is not cm compatible, it is meant for stock Sony roms only.
[Sony Cross-Device General] wooki:
Okay thanks, didn't read this anywhere. Just thought, the "custom rom" section in the first post meant cm11 and other roms.

Bootload Blocked and Bravia Engine

I have the C6503 and Build 10.4.1.B.0.101 Locked Bootload model. I can try anyway to install this Dual Recovery and then do the Root with SuperSU 1.94?

So I avoid the unlock bootloard and lose Bravia Engine

Could exclarecer me even when I unlock the Bootload lose Bravia Engine and consequently also the remote control function?

Note: I have not done the backup partition of TA.

Thank you! Sorry for my english!

Hello guys!

I have 3 questions..

First: What does it means "for locked bootloaders" & "just with stock sony kernel" If i gonna flash CM oder any other custom rom the recovery doenst work anymore?

Second this point: When installing custom ROMs:

Be sure to flash XZ/ZL/TabZ/Z1/ZU-lockeddualrecovery[VERSION]-BETA.flashable.zip from http://nut.xperia-files.com after installing the ROM and before you reboot, this way you will not lose recovery!

If i gonna flash CM do i have to reflash the recovery after every time?

Third: You can overwrite the chargemon executable in /system/bin/ from this MOD with your backup made earlier and change its permissions to 755 (-rwxr-x-r-x). Which Backup from the recovery? There is nothing mentioned about a backup before?

Thanks in advance!

Had Samsungs before and just CWM installed an always just flashed the roms from there and nothing more, here it "seems" to be a bit trickier or i dont get things right ^^.

Thanks for helping again!
[Sony Cross-Device General] ->---:
It sadly does not work with ROMs based on CM.

If you flash a new version of your favourite ROM, you will have to reflash the recovery module thereafter. Flash it as last module before wiping cache and dalvik and rebooting.

Before flashing a new ROM you should always make a backup. So you will have a safe working build which can be restored, if nothing is going to work with the newly flashed build. I think the backup you mentioned in point three, is just a backup of the settings you choosed in the recovery.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jaysus88:
Hallo Wiener Kollege =)

Yeah, i tought that the recovery doesn´t work with all roms.

But what does it mean? Is there an other recovery if i flash CM Built Roms like CWM or something and is this integrated in the rom?
[Sony Cross-Device General] kingvortex:
CM roms for Xperia devices have the recovery (usually CWM) as part of the kernel. You usually extract the boot.img from the rom zip and flash it via fastboot, then use the included recovery to flash the rom zip.

This should all be explained in the installation instructions for your chosen rom.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ->---:
Servus :)

I think all customs have some kind of recovery included. But you also can flash either CWM or TWRP after flashing your preferred ROM. Sadly not all of them are in an easy flashable format as kingvortex already mentioned.

If you flash XZDR onto a ROM which is not supported, you cannot enter Philz or TWRP (Vol up or down on green LED). In my case nothing else happened. It was just a useless flash. Entering into ROM recovery worked as usual (Vol up on violet LED).
[Sony Cross-Device General] torjohron:
kernel located on download page:

I have tried flashing kernel and DooMKernel but phone wont boot them, only goes to flash mode and the screen is black.

Unlocked bootloader & root (14.3.A.0.757)

Any ideas?

z1c
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
Does it ever show a sony logo? If not, your bootloader is refusing to boot because it's (re-)locked.

Flash stock kernel using flashmode and then try to determine if you have a locked bootloader by using the service menu. If it there says that it's unlocked, check with BLU in flashtool.

What tool did you use to unlock your device?
[Sony Cross-Device General] torjohron:
It never show's sony logo, bootloader is unlocked through flashtool. If i reflash stock kernel it works again, any new ideas? :)

I'm using stock rom, could that be the issue?
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
It sounds to me like you relocked the bootloader... Probably using flashtool too...
[Sony Cross-Device General] torjohron:
Tried unlocking with flashtool, it fails so it looks like the bootloader is unlocked.
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
Actually, it could still be locked, read the solution to this thread:

And recheck.

TWRP resolution not good on ZR (dogo)

Hey NUT,

congrat to this work, really nice.

bugs I faced with:

- at first post Xperia ZR's (dogo) nr is wrong. Right one C55xx

I've just installed latest "ZR-lockeddualrecovery2.7.124-BETA.installer" with windows

on Xperia ZR C5503 STOCK SONY 4.3 (.101) fw. Rooted with SuperSU

- At TWRP the resolution is not good. TWRP is unusable. Need to pull out battery to exit. Only first 2-3 row and 1st column is visible. When I use 720x1280 theme for TWRP it's fine. But I don't like themes.

- Both at TWRP and PhilzTouch the date/time is wrong. In TWRP there is no chance to set, in PT I can set it, but after reboot I loose the setting.

-------

EDIT:

HoloDark theme works fine on ZR. But need to be careful regarding versions of TWRP and theme. If they are not corresponding then you could loose functionality. That's why I don't prefer themes. With the pure surface we won't loose any func.

Thanks!
[Sony Cross-Device General] anthonythangaraj:
For fixing time issue in use Qualcom time deamon in PhilzTouch recovery :good: .

And for TWRP resolution, he will fix it soon :victory: . If you want to fix it on your own use the .83+ zip version of Xperia ZR(if you have) copy "recovery.cwm.cpio.lzma" to \system\bin folder and set permission. cause NUT has already fixed :D it in older version but, he some what missed it in the latest version.

I too Using Xperia ZR. I feel the latest version is bug free except the TWRP resolution (any way I dont use TWRP most time)

---------Edit---------

Attached Xperia ZR TWRP file. Extract the file and place the file in /system/bin folder. Also report back to confirm that I have attached correct file :angel:

Thanks, it's fine, but the mentioned theme by me is better for me, because it resizes also the terminal window to zr's screen, not just the touch ui. And scrolling in terminal window with the theme is smooth, compared to the version without theme.
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
Now available from my downloads page: I've uploaded a specialized XZDRKernel version for the Z1 C6943 (the Digital TV version).

If you have a C6943 with an unlocked bootloader and want to have full root but still retain the use of your Digital TV functionality, be sure to grab that one!

It's OK to share the link on boards other then XDA, just point them to the following link: Z1-XZDRKernel2.7.124-BETA.C6943.flashable.zip

Thank you!
[Sony Cross-Device General] Michealtbh:
Will we be seeing XZDR for Z2 soon?
[Sony Cross-Device General] [NUT]:
As long as there is no root for LB it will be just the kernel version, but yes, I will be working on it as soon as my Z2 has survived the first 7-14 days to rule out any manufacturing defects. :cool:

I might be releasing the locked bootloader package though, some people like root too much to not unlock the bootloader but then relock it using flashtool... then a locked bootloader package will still be needed... the jury is still out on that part :p
[Sony Cross-Device General] CAL7:
When locked rooting of the Z2 arrives, will it apply also to the Z2 Tablet?

Most probably yes. But of course nothing is 100% sure...
