How to root MM without downgrading? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Excuse me guys. I just wanna ask if anyone already found out a way to root MM without downgrading? Ive lost my root and recovery last time so i reflashed using xperia firm latest mm build because old ftf files is already not available. Any way to get root?

I'd like to know, too. I lost root access somehow when I flashed (via TWRP) a pre-rooted Marshmallow zip (23.5.A.0.570) that I built. I suspect that it might have been caused by using the wrong version of SuperSU. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try kingroot....

Can anyone confirm if kingroot works?

Root
If you have unlocked your bootloader.....then you can go for "Advanced Stock Kernel for MM" ....it has inbuilt recovery in it.....just flash latest SuperSU zip and you are rooted.

Stock Recovery - D800 (may work with others)

Before I installed TWRP, I extracted the stock recovery in case anyone needed it for some reason. The zip file contains the recovery.img file and instructions.

Well you can get it easily if you have a vzw kdz then use the kdz/tot extractor in the dev section and convert the recovery.bin to recovery.img using an app like magiciso

Well the way the op recommends it is:
1 - Copy recovery.img to root of SDCard
2 - Open Terminal Emulator (or adb shell) with root and run the following command-
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
3 - Reboot
But I don't know if that would work in all cases/haven't tried, the other way to flash it is by getting into fastboot mode via adb or something and using following commands:
-fastboot erase recovery
-fastboot flash recovery recovery.omg

Is this OK for 4.4.2 20c FW? I see the original post is from last year. Just don't want to brick my newly bought phone. I just did root and install TWRP recovery. Now I see there is a 20u update and read that upgrading will result in bootloop. I wanna get back to stock recovery so I can safely upgrade

Did you manage to do it?
I needed to update too, similar thought process. Wondering whether i can flash this *.img using Flashify. I also made a backup of my stock recovery.img before I installed TWRP, could that be used either?
And most importantly, was the OTA update smooth after you got stock recovery back?
Worst case scenario, no TWRP recovery & unable to boot...

How To Install TWRP on Lollipop Z2?

Hey guys , so here's my story
I rooted my xperia z2 running on Android Lollipop 23.1.A.1.28 Using The KingRoot App and i got full access then replaced kinguser with SuperSU using the terminal method.
So my question is how to install the TWRP custom recover ?
And what is the safest app for changing fonts
Thanks and i hope i get a fast reply
Cheers. :good:
You will have to downgrade to Kitkat, root, install recovery, create a flashable lollipop zip file and flash it.
I use this app to change font:

Daily driver.
I downloaded the zip and tried to flash it. In TWRP it starts to extract files with the progress bar only a 1/4 of the way over and after about 10 seconds it reboots back into recovery as if it crashed. I figured it was a bad download so I downloaded it again and tried a second time and same thing. not sure if it a bad upload or what I am doing wrong. I am using rooted version. Thanks
