How did you flash the CWM recovery?
with rooting guide. After this i tried to rflash it with ROM manager. From rom manager i can reboot into recovery (CWM) fine. But not from hboot.. (it will be loaded system android recovery)
i read smth in threade for some another phone, that there is two files, which need to be removed via adb.
So... if it's right - what files exactly ?
Uhm, are you S-OFF?
How do you mean stock recovery?
You can't flash any recovery if your not S-OFF most recovery's are fake flash recovery's which is just almost the same except you need adb or a zip file on your SD.
(if you don't know what S-OFF is, search the development section(explaining wouldn't be as good and as complete)
i'm s-on
so without s-off i can't use full functional ?)
Use fake flash as stated before. There's not much profit from S-OFF unless you're a dev, or you need to write files to /system on-the-fly.

Ya, search for the CWM 3 Update.zip in dev-section, push it on the root of your SD and start into stock recovery. Now push vol-up+power and navigate with the volume keys to flash update.zip now you are in CWM without starting the app.
Ps: you have to rename the downloaded recovery file to update.zip

Download the attached file, name it update.zip, place it in the root of your sdcard and like stated above, u're ready to go.
Just run the "apply sdcard:update.zip" and u'll boot right into CWM!
Grts,

thanks to all!
I would be grateful of some help. I have successfully unlocked the Bootloader, flashed a custom kernel and rooted my Xperia Z Ultra on 4.4.2.
The problem I have is when trying to flash CM11 nightly using TWRP and CWM Recovery. I carry out the wipes in TWRP, then proceed to select the CM11 latest nightly to flash. On swiping the bar to begin the flash, the process fails and the following message displays:
"E: Unknown File System: 'datamedia'
Updating partition details...
Running book script...
Finished running boot script.
Installing '/external_sd/Xperia Root/CM11/cm-11

E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/exter

(I think some of the text to the right of the window has been cut off)
When I Power Off my device in TWRP a message displays saying I don't have root, do I wish to install supersu. I went with this message and assume supersu installed when I powered off. However, on powering back on and re-entering TWRP and trying again, I am still unable to flash my CM11 zip.
I have also re-downloaded the CM11 zip, all to no avail.
To confirm, I can access TWRP and CWM, but can't install my CM11 nightly zip. I have tried installing from the internal SD to no avail.

Flash the boot.img from the ROM zip using flashtool and put the phone into fastboot mode. Hold the vol up key when connecting the ZU to the PC (phone powered off of cause) and select fastboot mode in flashtool flashing dialog. you will have to change to .img from .sin in the file open box
Thank you so much for the reply and support. I'm new to the ZU coming from a Samsung Galaxy Note 2, so please forgive my inexperience.
When you say "Flash the boot.img from the ROM zip", do you mean the CM11 nightly ROM? I only have the ZIP file downloaded from CM website.
Could you please explain the process in simpler terms please?
Thank you again

Quick explanation of what the issue is:
Some kernels/recoveries are ported from the Z1 so tell the ROM installer script that it is running on the wrong type of phone. As you have a ZU (I hope) we can get around this by flashing a new kernel and recovery to the phone, this is the boot.img that you can extract from the ROM zip that you are trying to flash.
This assumes that the phone has an unlocked bootloader, if not you cant run a custom ROM
Save the ROM to the internal storage of the phone (I always use /sdcard/0/Downloads)
Open the CM ROM zip in 7zip/winzip/etc and just extract the boot.img to somewhere (desktop will do)
Open flashtool (https://unrestrict.li/flashtool)
Select the thunder bolt
Select fastboot mode
Select 'Select kernel to flash'
Open the folder where you saved the boot.img file, and change the file type at the bottom from *.sin to *.img and open boot.img
With the phone powered off connect to the PC while holding the vol up key
Wait for about 1-2 seconds (you will see OK in the main flashtool window)
Reboot into the new recovery and flash the ROM like normal
Thank you so much for your support. I will follow your instructions this afternoon, when I have some free time and report back
I've just followed your instructions and they worked perfectly! Thank you so much
After, I flashed the boot.img with Flashtool I was able to install the CM11 rom without issue And I now have a new recovery - CWM which is fine.
Am I correct in thinking that future CM11 zips should now install OK, without having to flash the boot.img each time?
Many thanks again.

Yep that is correct, and any other ROM should install just fine as well.
That's great, Thank you again
Through rooting and flashing CM11 on the Z Ultra, it's made it so much nicer to use and taught me lots too.
Install CM11 Z ULTRA
Ola amigo, se possivel faça um tutorial ensinando a flashear a cm 11 no Z ultra brasileiro.
Well with the fact that i just 'Beginner' in android -developer world i spent two days (read and search) to just know what the right steps to have unofficial rom . So this is not thread from professional it's just what i understand so far . (SORRY FOR BAD ENGLISH)
It's some simple Steps :
1) First you need to root your Device to have fully adminstrator . (This make you can execute terminal order from you and the apps)
2)After you get root install flash tool To do Setup 4 . (Rasher or Flashify)
3)You must UNlocked you bootloader . (So the new rom can edit your boot process)
4)Install custom Recovery [CWM]or[PHILZ]or[TWRP]. (This make you can do zip install from external card)
5)Get your rom download and copy to your external card.
NOW YOUR READY
OK Now my guide is for LG G2 MINI (D618)
The custom rom is [ROM][5.1.1][D618/D620] Cyanogenmod 12.1 Stable
And my phone have OFFICIAL android 5.0.2 lollipop
1) ROOT : FOLLOW THIS GUIDE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/root-root-g2-mini-lollipop-t3123652
If it not success . do factory reset and start the root again but this time (don't setup superSU from store and don't restart your phone and IT's su Not Su) this should success .
2) DOWNLOAD THE FLASH TOOL FROM PLAY STORE AND KEEP IT
3) BOOTLOADER : FOLLOW THIS GUIDE (YOU MUST TAKE BACKUP FOR YOUR PHONE FIRST)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/bootloader-d620-d618-t3127819
4) CUSTOM RECOVERY : FOLLOW THIS GUIDE (CWM SUCCESS WITH ME) (JUST FLASH .IMG FILE WITH SETUP NUM (2))
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/recovery-lg-g2-mini-d618-v10c-t2854493
5) DOWNLOAD THE FILE YOU NEED FROM HERE AND COPY TO EXTERNAL CARD AND FOLLOW Installation :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-stable-t3175833
NOW IF THIS SETUP'S SUCCESS THE HARD PART IS OVER.
6) Now reboot into recovery mode (you will find this in Flash tool)
in recovery mode you need just two things (WIPE AND INSTALL)
7)CHOOSE "Wipe" CACHE, DATA and SYSTEM (THIS WILL DELETE YOUR PERSONAL DATA AND SETTING AND EVERY THING)
8)CHOOSE INSTALL ZIP FROM EXTERNAL CARD AND CHOOSE FIRST KK_BOOTSTACK_D618_1.1.ZIP THEN cm-12.1-20150828-UNOFFICIAL-g2m.ZIP
9) RECOMMENDED TO INSTALL GAPPS (tk_gapps-modular-pico(uni)-5.1.1-20150824-signed.ZIP)
10) NOW YOU HAVE DONE .. REBOOT YOUR PHONE AND IT WILL DO SOME INSTALL FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTE AND YOU WILL SEE SETTING SETUP ON THE SCREEN
11)F YOU HAVE unstable SIM signal JUST GO TO RECOVERY AND WIPE ONLY CACHE IT WILL BACK TO NORMAL.
THIS IS MY experience ON MY G2 D618 I DON'T KNOW ABOUT OTHER PHONE'S
THANK YOU XDA AND XDA-DEVELOPER'S FOR YOUR HARD WORK .
Thank you very very much for this great explanations!!!
Tried to flash custom recovery with Rashr after unlocking bootloader. Tried CWM, Philz and TWRP and always ended up with attached screen.
What do you think the mistake is? And what do you mean with setup Num 2? Do you mean kernel flash in Rashr?
Thank you!

Make sure that Unlock bootloader process success i have this problem to and i Discovered that the unsuccess unlocking bootloader operation the Responsible for this error as i understand.
Flash custom recovery process deleting the original recovery but because of unsuccess unlocking bootloader Rasher Deleting original recovery but he cannot install the new custom recovery so what i do in this case .
1)Download official android lollipop from here (chose your country ) its KDZ File and flash with LG Flashtool 2014 Here
Now do the setup from the First setup .. and setup Num 2 i just mean Flash Custom Recovery File (Dont use TWRP Use CWM with Flashify .. Rasher didn't success with me ) Hope you make it

this is the stock android recovery that means that you didn't or couldn't flash a custom recovery
make sur you extracted the zip file and flashed the recovery.img with flashify
Hmmm, did everything exactly like you've written until flashing recovery. Now I'm stuck with attached screen when entering recovery...
Any idea?
Thank you!

this is the fastboot screen
the recovery you tried to flash is corrupt make sur the file isn't corrupted and the that is matching your device
i think your device is d620r and your trying to flash the one from the thread [RECOVERY][CWM][PHILZ][TWRP] G2 Mini D618
if you can boot into system reflash the matching recovery TWRP for your device if you can't connect your phone to pc
use fastboot to flash the recovery

don't know what's wrong !! if bootloader was locked you will have a security error on boot not the fastboot screen when enterig to recovery maybe you're doing the wrong combination to access recovery try with an application or with flashify or rasher to reboot to recovery

So I got the 5.12.10 update for the weekly developer ROM and it installed stock recovery over TWRP and unrooted my phone. The first time I rooted I managed to flash TWRP with stock recovery, but it isn't working this time. I've had a lot of trouble trying to install via ADB drivers. Help please?

Did you rename TWRP to update.zip and put it on the root of the internal storage before flashing? If yes and it still failed, you'll have to give us a bit more info as to why it failed to flash (any error messages f.e.?). Should be fairly trivial to flash TWRP and SuperSU

It wasn't too difficult the first time, but the recovery seems to be using some sort of signature on the ROM's. All it tells me is that "Install update.zip failed! update.zip signature verification failed." It is named update.zip on the root of internal storage.

Hm, from what I've found on the miui forum, you're not the first one having this issue. These are the "possible" solutions I've gathered from a couple of threads.
1) Flash TWRP using fastboot (rename twrpxxxx.zip to recovery.zip and place it in the same folder as the fastboot executable):
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
2) Update your current ROM (stable/developer) to the latest version if that isn't the case yet and try flashing TWRP again trough the update app
3) Flash TWRP using Flashify
1. download flashify app from playstore and give root acces
2. download img of twrp for redmi 2 note and put in your sd card (I prefer sdext root folder)
3. Open flashify, select "recovery image", find the img file you've downloaded
4. confirm flash, wait until it's done
4) Re-download a copy of TWRP or use a different one (like this one for example)
Let me know how it went..
So I tried Flashify and every time I tried to use it, the app froze right before/after selecting the recovery image. I did, however, manage to make the ADB and fastboot methods work on my desktop PC. I have no idea what I did wrong before, maybe the wrong ADB drivers? Anyway, I did get it working, so thank you

I remember seeing this right after I ordered my phone. I had totally forgotten about it by the time I got it though, as it was more than a month later But thanks for reminding me, I already have it installed on my home PC!
