Recovery Always stops working:( - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Hello All,
Can some please help with this frustrating issue. I have installed the ZU-lockeddualrecovery onto my rooted ZU.
After a few days I can no longer get into recovery to perform a backup.
I have to reinstall ZU-lockeddualrecovery, and the process repeats itself over and over.
Any tips or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

First things first, which Verizon release are you on VRUAMDK or VRUAME7? Also you need to provide more information. What fails? What step of the root process are you on?

VRUAME7 and when I try and root, it fails when it first tries to do the boot option.
Also I just realized that I have been trying to flash VRUAMD2. I think that may be the problem. If so, I need the correct file to flash. Sorry for being so dumb.

[Q] Help! I think i bricked my S3!

Hey guys, basically, i'm new-ish to flashing, but i was able to do it following all instructions. Yesterday i installed an s5 theme from this site that caused my phone to have problems such as the wifi not working. I was reading that flashing a custom kernel might help, it didn't.
So i woke up, entered my TWRP custom recovery and stupidly factory wiped everything, now my phone wont get past the 'Samsung galaxy s III' screen, it just stays there. I have no idea what to do, i'm dumb enough not to make a recovery file before i started all this so i've ****ed up there.
If anyone can help me get my phone back i'll be extremely happy, i just want it working again! I have work in a few hours and really hope to fix it before then! Any help is appreciated.
Download a stock rom from sammobile.com and flash it the way you flashed TWRP.

It sounds like you might need to flash a ROM before it will boot. Your contacts, texts etc are gone if you wiped /data though.

Ah ok, it's good that it worked. I was just worried since you posted this on the i9300 forum and said you were flashing an i9305 ROM.

Unable to boot TWRP 2.8.7.0

I'm unable to boot into recovery. When I attempt to, the system hangs on the Twrp splash screen, and will continue to hang four hours, until I do a reboot.
I am able to flash earlier versions of twrp and philz cwm, but I'm unable to flash a new rom in either.
Running cm13 1/20/16
Any thoughts, suggestions, etc. Would be greatly appreciated.
Any info need from me, please let me know.
sent from your mom's phone.
Start back from scratch with the 10B KDZ, re-root with the Stump app and use TWRP Manager to put TWRP on. Then flash whatever.
Damn, I was fearing that was going to be the recommended fix.
OK, thanks!

Question about rooting

I have my bootloader unlocked and ready. The only reason I want root privileges is to set up my moto controller to use touch emulation. I don't need any extra crazy stuff and I love using my mods. Is there anyone who would help guide me to where I can do this since kingroot and kingoroot already failed.

Flash twrp recovery
Install supersu.zip on twrp
thanks for the help
Thank you so much. info on here is bit confusing. I do have a new problem though. Everything works fine for a couple minutes then BAM no more supersu. I installed twice and both times it gave me super permission for only a couple minutes. Any help would be appreciated.
Please help
I did a factory reset on the phone to try and start clean. Now the phone wont go past twrp. I'm so confused and in over my head. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I tried to flash a stock rom 7.1.1 that I found on here but it says "failed to mount invalid argument". Says the same thing when I try to wipe data.

Figured it all out with help from a friend. I flashed stock 7.0 through fastboot, I was previously trying to do it through twrp.
