hi and thanks for your answer :)

I had SuperSU and NRDUtils before flashing to 6.0.1, but now they do not appear anymore in my phone menu, so I guess they're not installed anymore.

I noticed 2 *.zip files (SuperSu and dualrecovery) inside of the rom *.zip, should I have unpacked them aside of the rom *.zip I just pasted into my phone internal memory ?

and if not, should I install separatly SuperSu from google store ?

Sorry for asking such dumb questions :\

As for the root issue, I realized it wouldn't work, cause I tried to use an app to change my boot animation, and then verified that the phone was not rooted anymore with an app named "root checker"
[Xperia Z3 General] kvestas:
You said about superuser earlier. It's different than SuperSu.

You don't have to install SuperSu separately. It should be included within prerooted rom. If it was prepared properly of course (I didn't test the one you are using). Btw DualRecovery should not be a part of mm rom.
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
Yes, try another ZIP, like Customized_DE.

You need to go back to KK and redo all the steps, and flash that instead.

Also keep in mind: SuperSU icon should appear, NDRUtils should NOT, you enter recovery via reboot and press VOLUME DOWN, there is no software app to do it in MM.
[Xperia Z3 General] Netj0hn:
ow ok sorry, I didn't even know that SuperSu and Superuser were different things, sorry about that mistake (one more thing I learned today ...) then let me clarify, it was SuperSu I had, the one with the yellow superman shaped icon with a red # (sorry i can't post external links)

ok i'll do that from kitkat again, thanks for the tip :) are all the version multi languages ? i'm french, i would not be bothered by an english version but reading german would be too difficult for me :) i picked NBC cause I read that it was supposed to be the most stable and "global" one. But if the DE version allows me to have my phone in english or french, it's fine by me :)

Thanks for your answers, I'm re doing all this right now :)
[Xperia Z3 General] Netj0hn:
hi :) me again

I followed your advice and tried with another rom (the UK one, the DE was in two parts, so slow to download) and it's now working (the root checker validate the rooted status), but still no trace of the SuperSu icon. Is this a problem not to have access to this app ? Or am I good to go that way ?

Anyway, thanks again kvestas and Licaon_Kter for your precious advice !
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
Not sure, try to write a file in /system with a root enabled file manager like Total Commander, does it work?

Tried to access recovery via reboot and VOLUME DOWN already?
[Xperia Z3 General] Netj0hn:
sorry to ask, but how do I get access to the /system folder in Total Commander (or ES Explorer that I use) ?

The recovery is working fine by booting and pressing volume down, I have access to Team Win Recovery as expected :) I used it to flash from 4.4.4 to 6.0.1 :)
[Xperia Z3 General] Netj0hn:
ok final act of my adventures ^^ I finally manually installed the SuperSu app cause except for the root checker, I've never had displayed again the pop up windows asking me if I agree to grant admin rights to the apps needing root access (ie to uninstall system apps like "Livelog"). Now that SuperSu is here, I get the popup everytime I need to modify something needing root access. It's all good :)

Thanks again for your time and advice, I'll try to learn more things and maybe one day be able to help someone too :)
[Xperia Z3 General] Newt182:

Flashing D6603_23.5.A.0.575_R11D_Customized UK_RecRootV4 made me lose my root apparently, root checker can't verify it.

So what could have went wrong? Also I can't access recovery anymore

E: OK, I tried again. Rooting took >5 tries but this time flashing new ROM worked and kept the root. Apparently there is some luck involved on this

So, I missed this info before flashing the IT 291 file.

I won't be able to root the rom using the instructions in the link above since I don't have a computer right now. But I installed Supersu from the playstore to get root again, and I think everything is fine.

[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
It does.

It is, reboot and press VOLUME DOWN

You already have root.

False, SuperSU does not "bring root", it just helps you control app access to root permissions.
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
Perfect, thanks. I think I only was missing the Supersu app to control the root permissions as you said since everything seems to work fine after I reinstalled Supersu. I'm not sure why it was missing in the first place.

Hello.

Is there any french flashable prerooted stock Android Marshmallow with XZ DualRecovery for the french Xperia Z3 D6603 (D6603_23.5.A.0.570_Customized_FR_RecRoot, or D6603_23.5.A.0.570_Customized_FR_SuperSU_XZDR2.8.26)?

If there isn't, how can I make one?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
It might.

There is no such thing (yet) for Marshmallow. Recrootv4 already has recovery TWRP inside.

After .570 there is .575 and .291, you could upgrade (via the included software center) and then read this: http://xdaforums.com/z3/general/recovery-root-mm-575-291-lb-t3435214

Read that above, it's not need, but if you want, get FlashTool, press XperiFirm, download .291 FR, close, let it bundle, get PRFCreator, dummy_zip instead of SuperSu and Recrootv4.

But better read that above ;)

Also, for your information, most customized XX versions are the same (for D6603), only some country specific bloatware apps that most don't use anyway, so yeah, you can get my pre-rooted .291 IT and it will be the same. Not to mention that if you debloat you get a clean phone no matter what version.

Is it possible to manually flash either a pre-rooted ROM from the OP via flashmode, or to flash a recovery in a similar way? I stupidly flashed NUT's dualrecovery today, thinking it would solve my "lost recovery" problem, and now I am stuck in a boot loop.

I CAN boot to flash mode, and use Flashtool etc.

Prior to this state I was running D6603_23.5.A.0.570_Customized_US_RecRoot - but had lost access to recovery at some point.

I would prefer not to have to start ALL over again and flash an FTF, root, and then flash a current recovery flashable zip. Would love to be able to flash recovery again, or somehow flash a full ROM zip

Any advice would be appreciated.

Lost recovery after flashing 6.01

Hi folks (and specifically [MENTION=6749263]Licaon_Kter[/MENTION])

I recently re-rooted my phone per the OP, and then flashed D6603_23.5.A.1.291_Customized_IT_RecRoot

I seem to have now lost access to recovery - not sure if this is expected, or if I have done something to get to this point.

I have tried to access recovery from cold boot, restart, button mashing, as well as "adb reboot recovery" but cannot get into any recovery.

Am I missing something?

Any guidance would be appreciated.
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
Did you see this: http://xdaforums.com/z3/general/recovery-root-mm-575-291-lb-t3435214 ?

It should work from boot with VOLUME DOWN pressed.

You could try to run Recrootv4 while connected to a PC.
[Xperia Z3 General] Swaziboy:
Thanks for the response. I tried all the button combinations from boot, including volume down. I even tried using adb to reboot to recovery but no joy.

What I find odd is that I rooted per the OP instructions - reverted to a stock build, rooted successfully, installed XZDR, installed your Pre-rooted IT ROM, and immediately from that had no recovery. I wonder if this is normal?

To confirm, is it safe to flash Recrootv4 on your D6603_23.5.A.1.291_Customized_IT_RecRoot ROM? I don't want to end up in a bootloop again if I can avoid it.

Thanks again for any help and the efforts to keep this phone alive with pre-rooted updates!!
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
No, you should have root and recovery.

You did flash from TWRP?

I don't understand, how do you flash without recovery access?

No, I meant, RUNning Recrootv4 while connected to a PC, RUN not flash, so it (hopefully) installs recovery again.

Anyway, you can read this too, maybe it helps: http://xdaforums.com/z3/general/recovery-root-mm-575-291-lb-t3435214

Fixing recovery with pre-rooted marshmallow ROMs

Sorry for the confusion - I should watch what words I use - I meant to ask if it was safe to install Recroot (not flash).

Anyway, the problem is solved - I seemed to have encountered some odd stuff, so will document it here in case other people do too.

If you find yourself with a Marshmallow pre-rooted ROM from the OP and you don't have a working recovery for some reason, then follow these instructions.

Revert back to a base stock ROM to start the root process from scratch per this thread

Once above is completed, you should have a rooted ROM, as well as XZDR installed as working recovery.

Flash D6603_23.5.A.1.291_Customized_IT_RecRoot or one of the latest Marshmallow ROMs per OP.

This is where I started having issues. At this point I had NO RECOVERY. Nothing I tried could get me into a working recovery. I tried adb, button combinations etc.

Per recommendation in previous post from [MENTION=6749263]Licaon_Kter[/MENTION], run RecrootV4 should then get you back to having a working recovery.

Thanks to everyone who keeps this phone alive with new ROMs and updates - and for the forum support. Great work guys! :good:

As a D6603 user. I just got done flashing D6603_23.0.A.2.93, so my Android version is 4.4.4. You said we can pick anyone. (God this is going to sound stupid) Am I able to pick The 6.0.1 Rom that is compatible with mine?
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
Either go through that route: 4.4.4, giefroot, XZDualRecovery, MM .291 pre-rooted (eg. my IT)

Or update your device normally (through Sony) up to MM .291 and then read this: http://xdaforums.com/z3/general/recovery-root-mm-575-291-lb-t3435214

Also, I don't quite understand this recovery thing. I have the XZDualRecovery. Which partitions do I make backups of? Im thinking of it as having a spare disk in your back pocket for when the crap hits the fan. But Im stumped. :confused:

Is this just another way of getting to the end of the field, so to speak?
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
That's recovery for Android, say you can't access you device, it bootloops or something, you enter Recovery mode and re-flash a ZIP with the system.

Again, if you have those just get my MM .291 IT from that link and enter TWRP and flash it.
[Xperia Z3 General] Vancer2:
I'll do that. finally an untouched Rom.

---------- Post added at 04:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:29 PM ----------

Whats the point of a pre root? Is it so you can get all the official updates?
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
Until MM .575 (read for years) there was no way to root the device on LL or MM directly, so you had to root KK and update with a special made ROM (the one in the ZIP flle) that had SuperSU and recovery baked in.

With MM .575/.291 you can root directly (see link above)

No, applying OTA updates from Sony would erase root.

Also, MM .291 is the latest official Sony provided ROM, as in "the last" provided Sony ROM for Z3/Z3c, since only newer devices (Z3+/Z5/X/XZ/etc) are 64bit devices that will get Android 7.0 and later.

So that being said, there will not be any updates to speak of.

Hello. In a bit of trouble here.

I currently have a year+ old "D6603_23.1.A.1.28_Customized_CE1_SuperSU_XDR2.8.15" flashed but last week or so I completely lost all bars after a reboot (baseband version shows unkown) and the phone is now randomly rebooting when accessing some files/apps, runs hot, refuses to shut down properly and just unstable overall. Hopefully it's just a software issue.

I'm not exactly sure how to proceed in fixing this but a full reset is probably in order. While at it might as well upgrade to 5.1.1 (not really interested in Android MM).

Is it just to download a new 5.1.1 ROM and use instructions in OP? Also which version would best be fit for Nordic countries (with English system language)?
