hi all

please help me
thanks
Hi, just received a 4.1 SGP312 today, rooted with DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit then updated too 4.2 via OTA after moving supersu to /system --> root is still there.
Now i would like to install a custom recovery and after reading all the treads concerning recovery i'm lost : is there any recovery woking atm for a 4.2 rom on locked bootloader for a SGP312 ?

Maybe someone will correct me on this, but I thought recovery required a non-stock kernel, and insralling a non-stock kernel requires the boot loader to be unlocked. So, you can't have recovery on a locked bootloader with stock ROM.

Nope, if you want a custom recovery you'll need to unlock your bootloader. In case you wan't to keep your DRM keys nad relock bootloader afterwards, backup you TA partition, unlock your boot loader, flash 4.2.2 kernel with custom recovery ('https://mega.co.nz/#!vV8QHKaI!Zpxtii1zictYur7sVOVRVVk0lR8tdIDOSmaDQkL8QDk'), flash root from recovery and finally reflash your TA partition which also relocks your bootloader.

Hi guys,
So I have an Xperia Z2 running the rooted stock 4.4.4 firmware. I just did a Nandroid backup and am feeling adventurous. My bootloader is locked, as it's possible to root the Z2 without unlocking it. I found out about the CM12 nightly 5.0 ROM and was wondering, if I flash that through TWRP (which I currently have installed), do I have to unlock my bootloader? Or do I not since I'm already this far in without unlocking it? And I'm correct to assume if I restore my Nandroid backup that restores my old ROM right?
hallo guys , i want to know if there is any possibility to install recovery on stock firmware with locked bootloader.
i went through philztouch dual recovery. but it doesnt work after repeated attempts. so i want to know if there is any way to install cwm or twrp on locked bootloader.
thanks!!
