[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Walter_White:
I am restarting at 9 with the FTF fresh. Maybe I get luckier this time, gonna save the output which I discarded. The installer said successful.

Well, the flashes took just as long as they did before, but the recovery installer took longer. Must have had an abnormal termination the first time and not noticed. But this time it went all through.

Now, when I fire up the phone I get the vibrate, green LED, vibrate sequence. When pressing VolUP then the LED turns purple. But then... nothing more happens, Screen stays black.

Not pushing VolUP results in a similar bootloop as the time before... Sony appears, LED shows, vibrate happens, then fade to black, rinse repeat.

Step3 : Setup of dual recovery.
=============================================
=============================================
Attempting to get root access for installation using rootkitXperia now.

NOTE: this only works on certain ROM/Kernel versions

If it fails, please check the development thread on XDA for more details.

REMEMBER THIS:

XZDualRecovery does NOT install any superuser app

You can use one of the recoveries to root your device.
