Hi nut! I'm really amused by your work on this.just a question: It's possible to make an installer in which we could select only one recovery for install? Personally, I don't want to deal with multiples recoveries at time... Thanks for this!

No, not for this round of releases anyway.
XZDR 3.0 will be all about choices and selections... but that release is far, far away.
Need a bit of help troubleshooting an issue, I cannot get my z3c to reboot to recovery? I have updated the app, granted root privs and still no luck? I have had it in recovery and successfully made a back up when I first set up root and recovery.

Does the only remaining known issue apply to you perhaps? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43698321&postcount=2
You can also try to reinstall or update to 2.8.1.
Thanks for the reply. You have given me some things to play around with when I get to my computer. I work away from home and lot and can't play around with these things that often or fix issues if something goes wrong

Experienced the same "issue". However, dualrecovery installed apparently flawless for I have been able to flash (via TWRP) a pre-rooted .77 FW on my Z3C (D5803) without any problems. So for all practical purposes it seems to be a cosmetic problem only.

Hey Nut (giggle, sorry, I'm 12),
Stupid question but will reinstalling this recovery wipe my phone? I had XZDualRecovery installed after recently rooting my Z3C, but due to some extra steps involved with updating to the latest firmware while keeping root, I had opted not to couple your recovery with the pre-rooted firmware I generated with another tool thinking the recovery would still be there, but it appears to be missing. I didn't notice until later, but whenever I boot into recovery, it just reboots the system.
Anyhoo, thanks for all your incredible work!

No of course not
Installing/reinstalling XZDR should never wipe your phone unless something breaks during update/installation... but these instances are rare to say the least.

Thanks for the confirmation. Just reflashed and all is well!
Tried to flash it over CM12 recovery (Z3C), but it won't install. Also tried from PC with the script - NDR utils are installed but recovery stays CM. Any way to install at least TWRP somehow?
Edit: Found this one and flashed with Rashr app from Play Store. Works fine.
Hi,
Installed XZDualRecovery using this manual.
It's working. I can backup and restore.
But what is not working is flashing. Tried to flash CM12 and it failed with error message:
from TWRP: This package is for device: D5803, D5833, z3c; this is aries.
from Philz: This package is for device: D5803, D5833, z3c; this is .
from CWM: This package is for device: D5803, D5833, z3c; this is amami.
So looks like these recoveries think that current device is Xiaomi Mi2, Z1 Compact or something else.
I extracted recovery.cwm.cpio.lzma, recovery.philz.cpio.lzma and recovery.twrp.cpio.lzma and did some grepping:
Code:
$ grep -ri ro.build.product= *
recovery.cwm/default.prop:ro.build.product=amami
recovery.philz/default.prop:ro.build.product=z3c
recovery.twrp/default.prop:ro.build.product=aries
Code:
$ grep -ri ro.product.device= *
recovery.cwm/default.prop:ro.product.device=amami
recovery.philz/default.prop:ro.product.device=z3c
recovery.twrp/default.prop:ro.product.device=aries
From that i would say that cwm and twrp use wrong device value. philz is using correct value but still for some reason it does not work and does not identify itself as z3c.
PS, I do not have deeper knowledge about android recoveries.

This is due to the CM updater-script, it's not looking for "aries". You can either edit that script to add aries, or you can fastboot flash the boot.img from the CM zip and use the recovery built into that kernel to flash it (because then it will be identified as z3c).
-transfer CM zip to your phone's storage
-On PC: extract boot..img from CM zip
-connect phone to pc in fastboot mode (turn off, hold vol+ while plugging into USB)
-fastboot flash boot boot.img
-boot phone to recovery and flash CM (full wipe!)
This is also in the HOW-TO in the CM thread

It was suck when I upgrade on 14.1.B.2.257 then everything you do for Root were not work, vroot, oneclick root, etc.
I using Sony Updates software for upgrade it, previous purpose only to making backup Stock ROM, then my root access was gone.
I combine many posting to gain back root access, actually my FW was Indonesia CDA, it may be broke warranty, but I try replace 2.257 with 1.510, that still rootable, with same interface (like white theme on setting). I just wanna share what I simple done.
1. Flash your device with previous FW( Me, use Indonesia 1.510), for you please select as you wish. Download it first.

Just sucessfully rooted my ZUltra using the VRoot tool. Am running 510 fw (Indonesian C6802).
Just wanted to hare my steps:
1. Connect your phone (don't forget to enable USB Debugging)
2. Open the Vroot tool, wait until it detects the phone.
3. Click on the green button on the right bottom corner of the tool (root).
4. After sucesssfully root using the VRoot (your phone will reboot), install the SuperSU from playstore.
5. Open the SuperSU app, it will ask to update binary, click ok.
6. Then open the Vroot tool once again, click the white button (unroot) on the left of the green button, hence removing the chinese superuser app.
7. After that go to SuperSU -> Settings -> Install SuperU into /system.
8. After that reboot the phone, and the SuperSU will still be there, all apps requiring root works perfectly.
Note: if you cannot find the developer options in the settings to enable USB debugging (just like I did the first time ), go to About Phone and click on the Build Number menu 7 times. That will enable the developer mode.

Not sure why we need another guide.. Especially instruction #5 which is something you implement prior to ota updating (and not at the end of the process of flashing files). Not being mean, just thing this will add to the confusion (for those already confused).

actually I finish on point 4, so thanks for advice.. one more I just share what I have done, but not making some guide, because I understood still noobs on it..
Swap vRoot out with the Japanese rootkit. People should not use vRoot.

Finishing on point 4 was "sort of" my point (the word 'must' is detailed in point 5, and I know I'm getting picky with semantics)

@lehoaitam GREAT ROM!
Not a single bug till now (I'll keep testing) and works perfectly with the best Xposed Framework modules!
Currently this might be the best rom for Xperia P (LB) in the forum! Congrats!
Just a note, in case of "Locked Bootloder" installation the user shall not "wipe data/factory reset" in recovery because he will loose root and recovery after reboot!!! You need to correct the instructions!

PS. Caution with the copy/paste code stealers!
Hi, this ROM is awesome, the only bug I have is the album getting force close, how can I solve it? by the way, is smooth as hell with cfq,interactive, max 800mhz min 200mhz.
Thanks for the awesome job Mate.
EDIT: problem solved by uninstalling Album with titanium backup and the reinstalled again, works like a charm, thanks!

In order to get the correct time going in Philz recovery ensure you read the FAQ in the DevDB thread here
Basically, Goto recovery options, GUI preferences, Date and time, change date and time and ensure "Parse Daemon time data" is checked.

This seems exciting.
Just checking, this will allow root with a locked boot loader. Thus keeping the TA partition and all DRM keys?
No, you need root in order to install this....
But if you search you will find that there is root for a locked bootloader
Just search for
Giefroot.

cm12 recovery
Cm recovery isn't great at the moment, just wondering the best way to install this if its possible?
From what I've read so far, Sony phones don't have a separate recovery partition, its built into the kernel! Correct me if I'm wrong.
I've tried to flash with the cm recovery, but it failed, would I need to go back to a stock based ROM, then this recovery.
Then when I flash cm12, flash this recovery before I reboot like it says in the 1st post.
Many thanks

Root (Using giefroot for LB), run the installer.bat from this download
That's how you install this.
But if you want to install Cm, just fastboot the boot.img from the CM update.zip (That has the recovery in it) then enter recovery and flash the update.zip. You do not need this recovery. This recovery is for LB and is installed into the system partition.

of course
I'm already running cm12, the cm recovery doesn't have any backup features or install from external card. Was just looking for options to get a recovery like twrp or cwm so I can make backups whilst running cm12.
Thanks for the fast reply.
Z2 to Z3 Rom Patcher
Code:
* Your warranty is now void.
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
What Is It
Z2 to Z3 Rom Patcher is a flashable zip that allows you to flash Z2 Stock Based Roms On your Z3. Do Not Flash CM or MIUI from the Z2, Stock Based Only. Make Sure The Rom you are flashing is 4.4.4 as 4.4.2 has not been tested. When Lollipop is released I will post a separate Patch for Lollipop so make sure you choose the write one.
This is still in the development phases. and some stock apps might FC.
DO NOT REBOOT THE DEVICE UNTIL YOU HAVE FLASHED THE PATCH OR YOU WILL BRICK THE DEVICE
if you have an app that force closes. Please let me know the following:
THE NAME OF THE APP
ROM YOU FLASHED
DEVICE YOU ARE USING
AS MUCH INFO AS POSSIBLE
IF THE APP FORCE CLOSES AND IT IS A KNOW BUG FOR THAT SPECIFIC ROM I DONT WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT.
For example I do not want to hear that When flashing X rom when installing Y I get a Force close. When X Roms thread clearly states that they have issues when installing Y. That Would be a Rom problem not a patch problem.
HOW TO INSTALL
1. Boot Into Recovery
2. Flash the Z2 Rom of your choice
3. Flash any extra packages from the Rom(Updates, GAPPS)
4. Flash the Z2 to Z3 Rom Patcher
5. Flash Rom Specific Changes if available
6. Reboot and Enjoy

Change Log
FAQ
Can we use AndroPlus Kernel or Another Custom Kernel
yes this will work with a custom kernel if the kernel works on stock based rom
I am getting Set_perm: some changes failed
this issue has been fixed but if you still get this message just ignore it and the rom will work fine
whats about Z2 Kernels?
The Z2 Kernel is replace by the Stock Z3 Kernel. No patching is done on the Z2 Kernel.
with Existenz, or any rom with OTA, do we have to worry about flashing this zip before installing updates?
With OTA updates I would recommend reflashing the Patcher after installing the update. OTA doesn't usually edit the core system components but they may include a bootimg that causes the device to not boot. To be safe flash the Patcher after flashing anything from z2
I lost my UI or Navigation bar
that is because the patcher does not port the build.prop and sometimes lines need to be added. flash the Rom specific changes for that rom and your UI will be restored and you will receive all the build.prop tweaks

Wow, never expected this, now we can use z2 roms, thank you!! This comes in handy, i must ask though, if the boot.img from z2 flashes over aswell, will this patch fix that or only the system?
Link for the patcher takes me to the envi rom thread? I'm trying it on z3 browser

the patcher overwrites the boot.img with the stock Z3 bootimg. So yes this will fix that aswell.
Very good questing. Someone was paying attention in Android Development Class.
That is the main reason why I put a warning about rebooting before flashing the patch. because flashing a z2 rom will write the wrong boot.img and will cause the device not to boot.
So remember to always flash the patch. even if you are just doing an update of the rom or flashing a z2 mod.

Anyone tried this ?
Yes that will fix the problem. But I can also fix it in the patcher, it's due to a lib that gets replaced by the patcher. I just have to double check what lib it is, then I also want to find out if there are any other issue before the update.
South African Internet is slow. So uploads take forever.

First SA developer ive seen on here!! Just to add that, i know its not related to thread but i felt i should mention, yeah our 512kbps upload speeds are so amazing :|
Ya. I think it's to difficult for guys to develop in SA. I got a faster line than most people and stI'll a pain in the but.
It impossible to build from source because the sync will take forever and the line will drop all the time. Also you are asking your sp to shape you.
Just to upload the patch with is 330 mb it took about 3 - 4 hours. So you can imagine how long it takes to upload a 1 gig rom. Plus you Internet is non existent when uploading.
So I think it's almost impossible for SA guys to develop stuff unless they have lots of patience.
Does anyone have the boot.img for philz cwm? I cant seem to find it, the only one i found is NUT's but phone needs to be booted up to flash it

This is moonwalkers stock img for D6603, dont be fooled though its not an installable zip, i extracted it from the rom, u can fastboot it. It has philz cwm by default, i am not sure about other variants compatibility, check moonwalker thread, i have only used it on my D6603, https://app.box.com/s/q4icideli0iyxpyrlpyx375l3aupli7p

Your boot img worked fine but it still doesnt flash. maybe its a bad download
Can we use AndroPlus Kernel in conjunction with this? This sounds brilliant, new rom time I guess

The update have problems with sd...? Somebody please can tell me?
No problem at all
Hi. master, is this fully original concept rom from Sony? i mean you got the ota and then backed up system via twrp? or it is a port from z3 or other? thanks
Port from z3. Sony dont release 2099 for z3c yet.
Do I do a wipe before restoring?
Flashed onto z3c. Looks really good and fast but unfortunately there is an issue with it mounting the sdcard. You can't use an external sdcard because it cant read it.
Okay might have just been my card but I wasn't going format it for it to work because it had all my lollipop backups on it and I wanted to go back to lollipop until this has more working for it like androplus kernel, xposed etc. Looks good though and can't wait to get it up and running when it's fully supported.
Hi!
No problems here with a 64 GB microSD Card.
bye
I have 16gb toshiba sd card and no problem.
