Tested this method got me into bootloop. :confused:

Anyone here can report if it is working?
[Sony Xperia ZL] johan23:
The bootloop is because of the XZ Dual recovery isn't it?
[Sony Xperia ZL] penars:
Can we flash using Cyanogen Recovery? Getting "Signature Verification Failed..."

*EDIT* Nevermind, I'm a dummy, the ZIP has to say -signed on it. Flashing now!
[Sony Xperia ZL] Murilo Barbosa:
Yes Functional.

Please send me print the "LOG" in PRFCreator

Yes Functional. It is possible that you do not have java installed then the ROM.ZIP was not signed
[Sony Xperia ZL] Abadeer:
No, I have, but yet got me in bootloop but I rooted it my own way.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Murilo Barbosa:
Give me Logs in PRFCreator
[Sony Xperia ZL] Jaycel0820:
hi! can we make this without recovery? because i think that will cause bootloop, have you try this? im on locked BL
[Sony Xperia ZL] Murilo Barbosa:
do not use the DualRecovery in PRFCreator to avoid bootloop

Do not use the DualRecovery in PRFCreator to avoid bootloop! Thanks:good:
[Sony Xperia ZL] Oliver94:
Is there any working recovery?
[Sony Xperia ZL] DoubleYouPee:
So using OTA kills root this time again?
[Sony Xperia ZL] RyomaEchizen:
Yes :( .I tried coming from 4.4.2 (root)-->4.4.4 (root survived)-->5.0.2 (root lose)
[Sony Xperia ZL] pointblank_limited:
Hey guys, is the problem with dual recovery a conflict with the PRFcreator or does it stem from the dual recovery files being outdated??

[Sony Xperia ZL] kt-Froggy:
I can only guess it's the recovery... If you have a properly rooted stock LP ROM, installing XZDR the usual way with a PC installer also consistently results in a bootloop, even though the install finishes successfully with no problems. Speaking of proper root, the method from this thread works great, unlike Kingroot, which didn't work for me at all (seems like you are rooted, but you are not; can't mount /system as r/w).

I have been looking for ANY working recovery for ZL on 5.0.2 with locked BL. So far, found nothing... :(
[Sony Xperia ZL] pointblank_limited:
I was just about to try installing recovery via PC...thanks for the heads up :), i would have been at this all night. I saw something on a thread about using byeselinux-have no idea what that about.

I guess we can do nothing but wait until nut has a chance to update the package
[Sony Xperia ZL] Abadeer:
Amazing as always serajr! Did the same thing yesterday was about to update my guide and you already did it here! Nice!
[Sony Xperia ZL] serajr:
Anytime buddy! ;)
[Sony Xperia ZL] Murilo Barbosa:
Thanks

For those who do not have BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED just add an extra zip in PRFCreator with xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip

and install with xzdualrecovery :good::good:
[Sony Xperia ZL] bigshowjh:
I created pre rooted without dual revovery, works fine. Can i install recovery 2.18 through the computer method without causing bootloop. As well any issues with xposed with lollypop. Thanks
[Sony Xperia ZL] kt-Froggy:
Nope, didn't work for me... Not sure if anyone else got more lucky.
[Sony Xperia ZL] DoubleYouPee:
Succes! 5.0.2 and rooted.

Pretty easy in the end.

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia ZL] atharnis:
Flash full stock firmware or something else?

5. Flash original 10.6.A.0.454 kernel with FlashTool (excluding everything but kernel)***

In this step you've said that we have to flash original kernel without the kernel? By this did you mean that we have to flash the full Stock 10.6.A.0.454 Lollipop FTF File?
[Sony Xperia ZL] H4NC0OCK:
in the flash tool, when you select the FTF, you can chose which parts you com flash only, so just select all these options except kernel
[Sony Xperia ZL] samgu:
Sorry Murilo, could explain that again? I am from Brazil too, but I didn't get it your last sentence: "and install wilth xzdualrecovery".

My ZQ does not have an unlocked bootloader, so your comments is important in my case!

Thks!
[Sony Xperia ZL] serajr:
Exactly... Thank you!
[Sony Xperia ZL] zuma77:
Bootlap in the end. Did everything but still got stuck in bootlap.
[Sony Xperia ZL] DoubleYouPee:
Did you flash the dualrecovery?
[Sony Xperia ZL] Chris_Castro:
Has someone tried to flash Nut's recovery directly, after flashing ROM? If so, what's the result?
[Sony Xperia ZL] zuma77:
Flashed FTF only and got it working.
[Sony Xperia ZL] kt-Froggy:
Yes. Bootloop.
[Sony Xperia ZL] DoubleYouPee:
Yes you did everything but missed the bold statement at the top ;)
[Sony Xperia ZL] H4NC0OCK:
i couldn't make recovery works none at all, i tried flash the rom with root and dualrecovery together, nothing, i tried with rash, nothing too, can someone help?
[Sony Xperia ZL] celo297:

[Sony Xperia ZL] Tetsuya Tsurugi:
Difficult, but is done

you cann't use recovery, recovery doesn't work

you will need to make another flashable with no recovery

translate

por enquanto não da de usar nenhum recovery no xperia ZL, o kernel dele n aceita, faz a mesma coisa q tu fez, porém não coloca o recovery que vai dar certo (eu fiz uma só com root e xposed)

só pra constar, escrevi essa parte em portugues pq vi q tu escreveu em pt aqui no forum, mas só pra te avisar, não pode usar portugues aqui blz? o forum é em ingles, se tu escrever em pt, vai levar alerta, tenta escrever tudo em ingles que fica de boa

boa sorte ai :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] igor.mr:
Tanks, i include another recovery, "installer.zip" and ok this time. how do I include Xposed ?
[Sony Xperia ZL] H4NC0OCK:
download xposed zip from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

than, when you make another flashable rom, on PRFcreator, there will be "extra zip", click on add, select xposed zip (of course, don't forget to put root and recovery if you said that it worked) and that's it, done :fingers-crossed:

did the recovery worked?? realy? which recovery did you use?
[Sony Xperia ZL] igor.mr:

[Sony Xperia ZL] H4NC0OCK:

In philz Recovery, can I just * Wipe Cache and Wipe Dalvik? I dont want my data to be formatted and my phone to factory reset thou. Will the result still be similar? Will the flashing process still be the same?. I'm a newbie here so I'm asking first before I've done something to avoid soft brick or bootloops. Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia ZL] H4NC0OCK:
first of all, aways make a backup, aways

yes, the flashing process still the same (and you still need to clean the phone to avoid problems)
[Sony Xperia ZL] Tetsuya Tsurugi:
I flash this kernel: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-zl/development/kernel-ub-t3132806

[Sony Xperia ZL] Tetsuya Tsurugi:
exact, c6503. No problem with kernel or recovery :)
[Sony Xperia ZL] H4NC0OCK:
i tried but my phone doesn't boot :/

i had to flash original kernel again

edit

now it works, i may did something wrong, i don't now, but it works
[Sony Xperia ZL] Tetsuya Tsurugi:
strange, I even flash xposed and L speed :(
[Sony Xperia ZL] H4NC0OCK:
now it works, my fault, i've download the kernel for Z :eek::eek::eek::eek: thats why it wasn't working :eek::eek:

but i already have xposed and root, i made a zip with PRFCreator :)

[Sony Xperia ZL] GMTN:
I've flashed a few ROMs on various LG , Asus and Samsung devices but never on a Sony devices. I did root my old X10i and it wasn't this complicated. The instructions here don't seem very clear to me as it shows screenshots and then it tells you not to do it . Can somebody summarize it up so that I can do this properly.

All I'm trying to do is get root on the device , I can live with stock ROM. If I can't do it this way then I'll have to do with the kingroot way which wouldn't be my preference .

Thanks
[Sony Xperia ZL] DoubleYouPee:
Yes follow the screenshot I posted instead

http://i.imgur.com/JWP0riA.png

However, there's a new xdualrecovery that supposedly fixed the problem. But I haven't tried so I don't know.

If you don't care about having a recovery in lollipop then just skip that step and follow the above screenshot.

1.

- Root current kitkat ROM.

- Install xdualrecovery for your current rooted kitkat. (as easy as opening .bat)

2.

- Download your stock ROM with flashtool on PC.

- Add the ROM in RFCreator.

- Also add the SuperSU zip.

- Tick all the boxes, and press Create.

- Wait for finish, if you get error at the end, install JAVA.

- Put created ROM on SD and reboot to installed recovery from step 1.

- Wipe for new ROM and install ROM.

Hi all,

id like to put a question; since i have a Sony device for my first time, i didnt knew about camera quality decreasing and Sony services halting with bootloader unlocking. Im very up to taking photos, and camera quality is very important for me, X-Reality too. So, since i lost my DRM keys, when i flash official ftf file, then ill lock my bootloader, and then update my FW from KK to Lollipop by official way via Software Update - will it recover my DRM keys?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] charliebigpot:
Sorry but once you lost the DRM keys (without backing them up) they are gone. Have you tried this "fix", it emulates a couple of functions that you lost, http://xdaforums.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/xperia-z1-z2-z3-series-devices-drm-t2930672

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Carach_CZ:
is it possible to backup drm keys after i lost them? i managed to backup TA-backup-20150*****.zip several days ago (but im not sure if before/after unlocking bootloader.

EDIT: well i did saw some incerasing camera quality, but x-reality didint worked. im trying to solve my issue, but it will take a long trip. :D how Cyanogenmod camera holding up?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OrBy:
If you take a backup of nothing - you still have nothing when you restore it.

If you unlocked before backing up - that's it - nothing you do on your own is going to get the keys back. Only Sony can restore keys, and likely the only way they will do that is by replacing the mother board and charging you the parts and labor for it.

If that's not an option for you - then the DRM restore is currently the only other path to follow.

Don't just assume things... and then comment. This is how misconceptions gets spread.

A magnet doesn't have any major negative impact on your phone. The worst it could do is screw up your compass if you use an app that needs that function.

I find that mounts with side grips makes it harder for you to access the screen edges since it curves.

I'm using this one:

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/arkon-slim-grip-sm514-universal-windshield-dash-in-car-mount-p35798.htm

Good quality and it clamps the phone from top and bottom so that your edges are free. I initially bought this for the Z2 since side clamps can disrupt button presses.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Accessories] Vanquiz:
It is, even with Ringke Slim, it's pretty sticky enough, I guess something inside the edge is made of metal, right in the middle of the body.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike_1983:
Hi

A friend who is disabled has a HTC One phone that has been updated to 5.0.2 but a vital app he uses no longer worked (auto answer) I tried lots of alternative apps and none of them work. So I thought I would try and downgrade the phone to 4.4.2 as I believe the app worked then. However I really don't want to brick it!

It is a stock UK Vodafone phone, completely stock, no root, probably sim locked to vodafone etc. I was looking into downgrading and it said I would have to first get "S-OFF" so I found a tutorial (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2314582), when I went through with it though it said something about the "path" not found or invalid or something, I think this was because the phone wasn't rooted.

Is there an easy way to root this phone? Should I just follow this tutorial : http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/

After I have root and S-OFF I need to flash a new 4.4.2 (stock) firmware, but not sure what one, I downloaded one but can't remember where from and don't want to flash something that I'm not sure about! I need to know the phones CID and MID whatever they are?

Thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
The only way for you to downgrade is to get s-off, revone wont work, you will have to use sunshine on your current HBOOT which will be the latest HBOOT version, sunshine is the only way to s-off this HBOOT and will cost you $25 through paypal during the s-off process.

for this to work, you will need to unlock your bootloader at the HTC dev website, then flash the latest version of TWRP recovery and then root the phone before running the sunshine app, sunshine used to do all of this for you, but for some reason does work on Lollipop.

Are you sure auto answer isn't in there, its on mine, its in settings - call settings - auto answer ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike_1983:
Hi thanks for replying

we can get the auto answer app on the phone, its just 5.0.2 is breaking the functionality, it doesn't auto answer its just rings. Some apps even crash when it should auto answer (after 2 rings) looking on google it seems a lot of people are having trouble with auto answer on Android 5.

Are you saying auto answer is inbuilt into lollipop? Is there any chance you can test if it works or not? I only see this guy on Tuesdays so won't have access to the phone until then, but if its inbuilt and works then that's great! He uses a bluetooth headset to answer the call (can't move his arms)

So sunshine is the only method that will work because it was upgraded to 5.0.2? I don't mind paying if it I can get auto answer working again.

Still a bit confused about what rom I would have to flash (if I need to)

Thanks

Mike
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:

Hello what is the difference from wm2003se or wm5

I downloaded couple of ROMs from this site but it was saying that i got the wrong version installed on my pocket pc and can't upgrade.

If it's possible can i get a link where i can download ROMs, i would like to try both wm2003se and wm5

Thanks hope to hear from you soon
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] jakubd:
To know what is the difference between wm2003se and wm5 you have to read, read and read. Also some search can be affective. This question was answered milions of times.

To change ROM tou need to READ. Wihtout reading no rom shall be changed :)

Two hints:

1. Try to find out, what is rom you have now. WM2003SE or WM5

2. start reading EVEYRTHING what si written here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel

3. Experiment with Search button on this forum - this is really safe and cannot explode your computer.

4. When you will have problem, that Wiki page nor search button cannot help, feel free to ask.

5. Don't be suprised, when you will get more answers like mine or no answers, if you ask for something, that is covered in Wiki or can be easily found using Search button.
