I bought XZU 10 days ago and it updated to 14.6.A.1.236
Thanks to your guide, I rooted and got SuperSU now.
But I could not enter CM Recovery after trying Vol U or D + Power button.

U need to hit Vol+/- when booting up, it should vibrate and LED should light up to Yellow or Pink, once it vibrates and LED turns on, hit Vol+/- that should put u in recovery

Yes bootloader is unlocked now
Sony Emma detects phone but says no services for your device. So I don't know if it has Sony Open bootloader or not.

Hi guys. I have Z Ultra C6833 with the latest build number which is 14.6.A.1.236 and with locked bootloader. I updated my phone via online update of Sony and without flash tools. I have question:
1) can I use your method in my phone? I mean should I unlock my bootloader or not?
2) does it create problem that I updated my phone via online update and without Flashtools?
Thanks
Perfect, easiest method yet.

You SHOULD flash custom kernel (e.g rage, krsh) to get cwm, not by using rom manager afaik.
BTW, i think this should be posted in general section?

In your 1st post, you mentioned that you have relocked your bootloader. Are you sure you already unlock it back before flashing krsh? Sounds like you dont (stuck at s.e logo) and how does you go into cwm if your phone stuck at there?
The steps is simple:
1. Unlock your bootloader ( i dont recommend testpoint method)
2. Flash kernel
3. Now you have cwm with preroot!
Edit: seems i missed some point of your original post. Now, you want to relock or want to get cwm? Ive successfully relock mine once but i dont see any point for that since drm is gone forever and warranty have been void. I done it just out of curiosity. Just use the search tool or google.

how to re-lock Xperia boot loader:
Requirements:
1] PC Companion and Update Service installed on your PC
2] FlashTool – Download link
3] Xperia Relock bootloader.ftf –here
Short guide:
Download & extract ‘FlashTool’ on your PC, put the ‘Xperia Relock bootloader.ftf’ file inside the ‘firmwares’ folder, and flash. That’s it.
And Step by Step Guide:
1] Download the files given above in requirements.
2] Install Flashtool anywhere you want but remember the installation lockation (Let it be "C:\Flashtool" )
3] Now copy the “Xperia Relock bootloader.ftf” file that you downloaded above, and paste it inside the “firmwares” folder located at ("C:\Flashtool\firmwares\")
4] Now double click on the “FlashTool.exe” file to run the program.
5] Once the program opens — click on the “Flash” button. (The first button with electric shock symbol in flashtool software)
6] Select flashmode and click ok. You will get screen similar to following
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
7] Do not click any options now leave them as it is.Also disconnect your phone from pc if you have kept it connected
8]Now click ok and flashtool will ask you to plug in your handset with a popup.Now first plug the USB cable to PC, switch off your Handset and now hold "volume key down".Keep holding it do now release it
8] Now while you keep holding volume key, plug in the usb cable to your phone and you will see "green" light in your led.Flashtool popup will dissapear and the process will start.It will get finish in some time.
Flashtool will automatically start the flashing process.
Keep an eye on the Flashtool’s screen.
And once the process gets finished, disconnect your phone from PC and switch it ON.
Enjoy!
You have successfully relocked your bootloader ... !!
hey after relocking can i use fota ..............will it brick my phone????

dude, dont be lazy, why do you want us to spoonfeed you? just search 'flashtool' on google if my link is not working,
and yes, you can use FOTA

Copied from post #27 for more visibility.
OH MY GOD! Its dangerous

If your one finger slips down carelessly just one centimeter down, and your phone is BLANK.
Be careful guys.

you need to wait to let your computer detect and install drivers while your phone is in fastboot mode. if they dont install then you will have to google for universal fastboot drivers.

Windows is stupid, does not installs drivers (already installed) in pc. It tries to detect over internet for latest WDM drivers and drivers FAIL to load.
Always click this button while installing drivers and wait with patience.

Root is possible with locked bootloader.
Did it a few minutes ago.
Flashed 4.4.4 via Flashtool
Rooted via Easytool
Dualrecovery via .bat with Point 3 in the menue
Then flashed a 5.0.2 Zip I made with PRFCreator including Root (SuperSu 2.4.6) and Dualrecovery
Everything is working fine!
You can more accurately describe these operations how to do it ??

1. Download the firmware for your device with "XperiFirm"
2. Make a ftf of the firmware you just downloaded with "Flashtool".
3. Download "dual recovery" and latest "SuperSU" package.
4. Make sure you have a custom recovery already on your phone.
5. Read how to use this tool and make a zip for your phone to flash with it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/tool-prfcreator-easily-create-pre-t2859904
6. Flash the zip through recovery. Wipe cache, data and dalvik before ideally. Done. You will be pre-rooted with SuperSU.
PS: Don't try to install Xposed yet, it causes bootloops after first reboot so I am back on Kitkat until that's sorted.
Here is the tutorial for PRFCreator:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/tool-prfcreator-easily-create-pre-t2859904
Then flash the zip from sdcard1 via Philz Recovery
1st boot takes a long time
When already on 5.0.2, then flash a Kitkat FTF via Flashtool
Then root the 4.4.X with Easyroot
After that you have to use Dualrecovery installer, there you choose point 3
ZU will restart, pushing Vol Up will start Philz Recovery
In Philz Recovery Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik, Factory reset
Then install Zip
didnt work for me
Thi method didnt work for me. My mobile is C6802. It went into a loop
The steps I followed were like this:
Flash kitkat with flashtool
Root with philz dual recovery
go into philz recovery
flash the zip file made with the link given above.
for recovery i downloaded philz dual recovery flashable
Try to make your own Zip with PRFCreator with a FTF for the C6802
Excuse me, does it work with locked bootloader? I'm coming from rooted 4.4 with locked bootloader but after I've followed your steps now I am in a bootloop

Followed again all the steps but checking more options in PRFCreator.... Lollipopo 5.02 with root is actually running on my Z Ultra
Thanks for your instructions!!
Actually there's a way to root 5.0.2 on UB without recompiling the .ftf and reflashing 4.4.4 back and forth. Just did that yesterday after having a bootloop with that pre-rooted .ftf.
So here's the idea (assuming you have an unlocked bootloader):
You will need the 5.0.2 .ftf, flashtool, fastboot, boot.img file from doomkernel v.22, XZDualrecovery zip and latest SuperSU zip from koushik's webpage (the one with 7 or 8 folders in it).
1) Clean flash any Lollipop .ftf with Flashtool.
2) Use fastboot to flash the boot.img from DoomKernel, thus you get a working recovery.
3) Restart the phone straight into recovery without letting it boot.
4) Flash SuperSU and XZDualRecovery, do the wipes (cache+dalvik) and power off the phone.
5) With Flashtool flash only the kernel of the Lollipop rom.
6) Reboot and enjoy! Now you have a fresh stock Lollipop ROM with full root access and a working recovery.
I suppose you could lock the bootloader back after that if you need it, though I don't see any reason to do that.
P.S. I will try to update this post with all links later when I get to my PC, posting with my XZU now.

If you're asking about my previous post, then you don't actually have to "get" it. You should load the very same .ftf into Flashtool and then uncheck every tick except "KERNEL". That's the way to flash only one part of the rom.

You must check all option's
I don't own or created this mod.it's look like this mod was created by unofficial Xiaomi Distributor to flash modified rom that included GApps thats marketed outside of China.
This mod allow you to flash custom kernel/recovery in locked bootloader state.it's a full working unlocked bootloader with a limitation.You will lost the modified bootloader if you flash official full rom from miflash/fastboot/updater.
Installation :
1. Unrooted device
- download file ido-TWRP-3.0.2.0-miflash.zip
- extract and flash using miflash in download mode
this will also install official TWRP 3.0.2.0 to the device
2. Rooted device
- download FX File Explorer
- download FX File Explorer (Root Add-On)
- download file ido-aboot-mod-image.zip
- extract ido-aboot-mod-image.zip,copy aboot and abootbak to /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name
Workaround for official full rom flash:
- miflash/fastboot -> follow installation method for unrooted device
- updater/recovery -> after rom installation flash ido-aboot-mod-image.zip from TWRP
! ! ! WARNING ! ! !
If currently installed ROM is Official MIUI ROM , DO NOT ENABLE SYSTEM MODIFICATION in TWRP. refer to this thread if you want to make modification to the system(root/gapps/xposed/etc)

Quoted from official TWRP page :
This device uses dm-verity!
This means that swiping to allow system modifications will prevent you from being able to boot if you are using the stock kernel. In order to bypass dm-verity's boot prevention, you will have to install a kernel that has dm-verity disabled in the fstab.

Hi puppet13th,
I installed via Mi-Flash the twrp file, everything seemed ok, but after reboot and going in recovery mod I still find the "normal" xiaomi recovery mod. Any suggestions? Thanks mate!

1st flash seems to be good but recovery didn't change any good.
2nd flash with fastboot, it has error in the miflash.
3rd flash back to download mode again and it worked, but system cannot booted. Currently i'm trying to flash cutomized rom with the twrp itself but then my phone bootlooping -_-

i did flash twrp .... but now redmi 3 pro has bricked. how to back my phone normaly ... sorry my bad english
my phone now only vibrate 2 times ... cannot download mode
Has anyone confirmed this to work? I'm on the Chinese Stable 7.3.2.0 ROM but planning to flash Xiaomi.eu or CM12.1 in the future. I would like to know if anyone has experience with flashing Xiaomi.eu with this TWRP; so I will probably use this method if unlocking my phone through the official way fails.

Updated 1st post,please read the warning.to force the phone enter download mode simultaneously press "volume +" + "volume -" + power button.
If you have successfully flashed the ido-TWRP-3.0.2.0-miflash.zip from miflash,you should be able to enter TWRP and then flash ido-auto-bootimg.zip to get the system boot normally.

How about if we try to install Xiaomi.eu? Do we still have to flash the auto-bootimg or can it be used right away?

I assume if multirom was modified the official stable rom i flashed before and I did flash the autoboot-img, but the mistake i also did is allowing modifying system at the first twrp screen.
And now i just flashed with manIT dev global rom by miflash.
And it will have the original mi recovery i'm sure.

Introduction
Hi to all dear Z3 users. This is my first TWRP build, I used omni minimal TWRP source and kernel from Sony git.
I hope you enjoy this.
How to install
Fist of all you MUST flash lastest 23.5.A.1.291 firmware with FlashTool at least one time, for upgrade the bootloader (You need this upgrade for boot on recovery).
Via fastboot
Reboot your phone on fastboot mode.
Flash recovery using this command:
Code:
fastboot flash FOTAKernel <filename>
Via zip (You need a working recovery installed)
Download the zip and put it on your internal or external memory.
Reboot to recovery.
Flash the zip.
Via Official TWRP App (You need root)
Install the app from Google Play Store and download the zip.
Extract recovery.img and copy it to your internal or external memory.
Open the app, give root permissions and tap on TWRP FLASH.
Tap on Select a file to flash...
Select the recovery.img and flash it.
Download
TWRP

FAQs
Q. How boot on recovery?
A. With the device turned off, press power and vol- at same time until it vibrates.
Q. Does it works with Z3 dual sim?
A. It should work, since Z3 and Z3 dual sim are like 99% the same device, but is not tested (yet) so you Z3 dual users have to test it and report.
Q. Does it works with stock or custom ROMs?
A. At this momment I know that it is fully compatible with stock ROMs (or stock based ROMs) but at this momment is not tested with custom ROMs, so you users have to test it and report.
Thank you so much for the latest TWRP for our device. I use it with official CarbonROM from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/orig-development/8-1-x-carbonrom-cr-6-1-t3771546
and it works like a charm. The only recovery I could find, which enables full-featured OTA updates and installation of ROM and GApps without up- and downgrade cycle.
Keep up the good work
Jo
Thanks for your work bro
I noticed after using this recovery on Z3 dual that when I flash a custom rom, baseband version and imei codes disappear

@ShadowElite so its a recovery for Android 6 Mashmallow compatible with higher Android versions? amazing. EDIT: doesn't boot up.
Hi. Thanks for your work.
I installed this TWRP on my Sony Xperia Z3 (D6603) running Marshmallow 6.0.1 (23.5.A.1.291) and it only booted in recovery mode. Then i installed OMNI ROM (7.1.2) and since then it only boots into system. Is there any way to boot recovery mode and also have the system working? Anything to flash? Thank you in advance.
This recovery is compatible with carbon, but with omni results with sim not being detected for me.

Turn your phone off. Then, hold its volume up button whilst connecting it to the computer through an USB cable, until you notice its led lighten up in blue color. Let's suppose your TWRP image file is named recovery.img. Then, in a terminal command window, enter:
fastboot flash FOTAKernel recovery.img
Replace recovery.img by the actual name of your TWRP image file. And everything else is case sensitive. If you have a Windows computer and don't have the fastboot command yet, search xda for 'Minimal adb & fastboot'.
To enter TWRP after flashing it, starting with your phone turned off, hold both the power and volume down buttons. When your phone vibrates (as if it was being turned on), release the power button. Some seconds later, release the volume down button.
