If you have TWRP installed that is all you need to root this device on KitKat. From TWRP reboot the device and it will tell you if it's missing root and offer to install SuperSU for you if it is. Once the device reboots tap the SuperSU notification that pops up (or open the program normally if there is no notification) and select the option to install the binaries using the recovery script.
Hi all,
Currently I'm on B371
I unlocked my bootloader, flash with TWRP 2.8.7.0 and then try to install SuperSU. After reboot my phone, it goes to permament bootloop.
When I'm in TWRP mode, phone memory is visible by my PC. When it's in bootloop and Honor logo is visible I can install HiSuite on my PC from phone and it's also visible by "adb devices".
What can I do to retrieve my phone?
Thanks for any help.
Flash this, it's the root package from WBT, I've got the same probleme after rooting on B371 and then I flashed this file, it fixed the problem.

Or you can flash your stock recovery.img with "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" command in rescue(bootloader) mode. And after that you can install your B371 rom again by 3 button way. If you want to root again, use TWRP 3.0.2 and SuperSU 2.62.
Thanks! I used Nexx_ method. It works. If I can ask, what is WTB?

Hi,
there is something wrong with my Xperia Tablet Z. After upgrading from CyanogenMod 11 to CyanogenMod 12 a few Mouth ago the Custom Recovery i've installed before was replaced with CyanogenMod-Recovery. Because CM doesn't work very well i downgraded to Stock-ROM using Flashtool. Because i couldn't find a Way to root Firmware 4.2.x and higher i downgraded to 4.1.2 and rooted with towelroot. The Bootloader is unlocked (checked with *#*#7378423#*#*).
But when i try to install TWRP it failed. This is the error with Fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
sending 'recovery' (10688 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.359s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.359s
All drivers are installed. I've tried this on Ubuntu 16.04 and Windows 7 with installed Flashtool and also with installed ADB Installer (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118). I tried it with three usb cables and different usb ports.
It also doesn't work with TWRP Manager (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager&hl=de) and the Official TWRP App (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.twrp.twrpapp&hl=de). TWRP Manager show me this error
Code:
Flashing recovery was unsuccessful. Either you already have thos recovery installed or another error has occuured. Would you like to attempt to recovery now?
When i try to reboot the App freeze.
The Official TWRP App seems to install the recovery ("was successfully installed"), but i can't reboot into recovery with VOL+ (also tried VOL-). The Table starts normally.
Maybe there is something wrong with my Tablet now? Is there any other Way to flash a Recovery or to flash a Custom-Rom or a pre-rooted Stock-Rom? As i said before i can't root it with a Firmware higher 4.1.x. Update with the internal Update fuction also failed. So at the moment i can use [email protected] or a higher Version without root.
@PiereMallao
Sony devices, in particular, tabz don't have separate recovery partition. So you need to flash kernel with built-in recovery (see crDroid, RR, LA firmware threads), or you have to flash TWRP to FOTA partition.
Hi,
after some years with my pollux_windy left untouched, I decided I'd install my first custom ROM. But I'm having serious trouble to do so, and it seems unsolvable to me after hours of despair (I've been trying for almost 10 hours now).
I was on Lollipop (firmware .222), first unlocked my bootloader, then rooted my tablet (using kingroot). Then I tried to install twrp, and the only way I managed to do this was through this "TabZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26" thing. Only, I couldn't manage to flash anything, ended up bricking my tablet.
I then flashed a stock 5.0.2 ROM (.454), retried installing twrp via the same method, and although I manage to access twrp, I get the same error each time I want to flash a new ROM (tried CM/LineageOS 14.1 and ResurrectionRemix v5.7.0), which is : "E: error executing updater binary in zip [insert name of the .zip]".
If I hear Rootk1t correctly, I should flash a kernel with a built-in recovery first... But, doing some research, it looks like you need a working recovery in the first place to flash a custom kernel.
I'm completely lost in this... How can I get that damn recovery to work, and/or get a custom ROM ?
Edit : Alright, with a good 3 hours-long night and a lucky shot, I managed to install LineageOS ! I used twrp recovery (from the dualrecovery thingy-thing) to wipe clean the device, then tried to install the ROM. It gave me the same error message about updating binary. So I rebooted the device into fastboot (couldn't access the recovery anyway... not sure if it's normal), flashed the "boot.img" from the ROM using Flashtool, then rebooted again the device. On the bootlogo, I tried to enter recovery with Vol-, and it worked. i then flashed with ease the ROM. Maybe it will help somebody !

enter recovery and flash firmware zip, gapps, etc from it.
Root works now, but i can't install TWRP 3.0.2.0 (but XZDualRecovery works).

If i understand correct Hapaxx flashed the boot.img form the LineageOS 14.1 Image? I don't want to install a Custom-ROM. crDroid is for Nexus. Where can i download a Kernel with build-in Recovery for tabz? or can i use the same crDroid also for tabz?
how can i flash the recovery to fota? can i do this with the same *.img or do i need an other image?
i just unlocked my bootloader and i dont know what else to do, i would like to install lineage 14.1 but i dont know what path to follow, i also hit the whole command not allowed thing, and what Hapaxx said, i'm unable to understand, could someone give a clear set of commands to follow? please? what to do in order so i dont brick my tablet.
Hi PiereMallao,
i have the same Odyssey behind me! Sony Xperia Tablet Z SGP321 LTE (16GB)
1. First check Bootloader unlocked with Flashtools 0.9.18.6. Check!
2. Install SGP321_10.1.1.A.1.307_Unbranded.ftf with Flashtools 0.9.18.6. Check!
3. Developertools on. USB-Debugging on. unknown sources on. Check!
4. Root with Doomlord_Rootkit_v18.rar. Check!
5. Check with App "Root-Checker" in Google PlayStore. Check!
6. And now I try to install TWRP for 3 days !
First try with TabZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26-RELEASE.combined.zip its ok, but i come only once after the installation in the recovery mode. Afterwards I have it with Vol+ or Vol- tried. It always starts the normal system.
7. With Fastboot -
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
target didn't report max-download-size
OKAY [ 0.359s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.359s
How can i check Bootloader unlock ? In Android Tablet Z i didnt have a keyboard to put in the hex-code *#*#7378423#*#* ?
In Flashtools i checked Bootloader unlock so i have no idea at this Point.
What can I do ?
sorry, i have so solution for this problem. i have given up. theonly way i know to ceck the bl is unlocked or not is flashtool.
I'm having issues with this as well. Trying to install LineageOS 14.1, I can initially get twrp onto the tablet, flash LineageOS 14.1.. boot into it, set up (it is recommended to reboot the tablet once before flashing gapps) ...however, rebooting wipes twrp out. I'm not used to this FOTA thing (first i've ever heard of it) so not sure how to get twrp to 'stick' and not get wiped out
I got it installed this weekend. First secret was fastboot TWRP to boot, not recovery:
Fastboot flash boot twrp-------.img
Make sure you have the right TWRP image.
Then boot into recovery and TWRP comes up.
Flash lineage and gapps.

I'm a little confused about part 14.
Download app from Play Store : Recovery Manager for Xperia. (done)
Chose FOTAkernel -> Backup. (this makes the app unresponsive for me so i skipped it for now)
Then TWRP -> Download. (done)
then the rest of the steps are confusing. b/c following that guide twrp is already on there (flashed via fastboot), and so why am i replacing the fastboot flashed twrp with the twrp just downloaded in the above step?
and what does the fotakernel have to do with all this? am i suppose to replace the fotakernel with the twrp image downloaded above?
the steps in that guide need more detailed elaboration

I never did step 14. Looks straight forward. You should ask this question on that thread

Have you rebooted and tried to get back into twrp after you installed the rom? I did the first few steps of the guide a few days back, but every time after flashing the rom it would wipe twrp. I think the only way to get twrp to 'stick' permanently is to complete all the steps

After installing twrp via fastboot per the directions, then reboot into recovery I had few problems. The only issues I had are solved by installing the ROM first - not gapps. Boot and run setup. Then boot recovery and install gapps.
I never had issues with twrp after installing. Power off, power on and rock volume up/volume down until you are in recovery

Yes.
I never bothered with step 14 in the guide. It works fine as is.
P.S.
As per my post on the guide referenced, I installed Rashr and flashed TWRP that way. Seemed to work perfectly. TWRP now shows 3.0.2 which is correct version. No change to system boot. Nice app

Hello guys,
I have the SGP321 running on android 5.1.1. It is rooted with SuperSU and I installed TWRP via [NUT]'s XZDualRecovery. When I try to flash Resurrection Remix (same error with LineageOS 14.1 btw) the installation fails with error: execute updater binary in zip. Two lines above (but not in red text) it says that this rom is meant to be installed on a SGP321 (which I have) but my device is a [empty space]. I don't know if this has something to do with the mentioned error. A Google search led me to posts with the same error, but mostly on the OP One and the Moto G4. They say that you have to update the bootloader. Has anyone experienced the same problems with their Xperia TabZ and has found a solution to this?

Recovery 2.8.7.0 is not compatible with with the lastest custom firmwares like android 7.1.2 or 8.1.
To flash them successfully you need to flash recovery version at least 3.2.1.x to your device.

Good to know, thank you! How can I flash the newer version of TWRP? I tried to flash via Fastboot but get the error "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)". I think this is because Sony's devices don't have a recovery partition.

Use Rashr tool.
Download twrp.img from the link above. Flash it to recovery via Rashr and reboot. After you can enter it via Vol+ on boot.
Rashr says I need a FOTA kernel partition, how do I get that? Thank you for your help, hope that this was my last question
EDIT:
OK I tried different things with Rashr. I uninstalled XZDualRecovery with the flashable zip and flashed full stock rom 5.1.1 with Flashtool and rooted it again. I was not able to install the latest twrp by any means using Rashr.
I found another solution:
1. I installed (again) XZDualRecovery and booted into TWRP 2.8
2. I flashed the Marshmallow Version of Resurrection Remix (https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...pment/rom-resurrection-remix-m-5-7-3-t3440876) --> This installed the CM-Recovery (Vol-) AND TWRP 3.2.1 (Vol+)
3. Booted into TWRP 3.2.1
4. Successfully flashed an Android 8.1 Rom
Hi,
I was running:
Unlocked, TRWP and magisk on most actual version, beryllium-9.5.6-9.0-vendor-firmware, lineage-16.0-20190506-nightly-beryllium-signed
Today I started an OTA Lineage Update, but my Poco is now stuck in fastboot mode!
When I start minaml adb and type "fastboot continue", Lineage OS will boot normally. The TRWP-App Icon disappeared, but I can still start the TRWP-App via Google Play.
I copied all zips necessary for a clean new install onto my SD-Card, but I cannot boot into TRWP Recovery any more!
I downloaded the All in one tool, it connects: ADB device Ready. But I just don't know what to do for a clean new install.
Please help a newbie, I don't want to brick my Poco any further. I found a few threads that OTA Updates do not work that reliable, but I haven't figured out a solution.
Best regards
If I understand correctly, the Lineage OTA Update wiped the recovery Partition with TRWP?
That would explain why I cannot boot anymore to recovery.
As I remember I have been using OTA Updates in the past working fine. How should I update Lineage in the future? Always clean install? And how to backup all my data then, nandroid?
Should I now use the All in one tool to Flash TRWP again to recovery? How? Use "Recovery Flasher and Root" -> TRWP and check "Root after flash"?

Get the TWRP recovery image on to your pc, together with vendor/firmware zip for at least 2019-05-23. fastboot boot [TWRP recovery img] to boot the recovery, copy the vendor/firmware file over with adb, flash it with TWRP and reboot. If all goes well, great. If it doesn't, well...
Hi, I am unsure what you refer to by "TWRP recovery image", do you refer to "twrp-3.3.0-0-beryllium.img" or to some kind of backup image?
I have the "beryllium-9.5.23-9.0-vendor-firmware.img" on both, sd-card and PC now. I just do not know how to flash TWRP with the All in one tool, either by
Recovery -> Recovery Flasher and Root -> select recovery -> twrp-3.3.0-0-beryllium.img [and check the box "Root after Flash"]
or
Miscellaneous -> Advanced Options -> fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.3.0-0-beryllium.img
I just guess the first Option (Recovery)

twrp-3.3.0-0-beryllium.img is what I was referring to. Boot it with the command I gave. The vendor-firmware is a zip file, not an img file. You need to flash that after booting TWRP.
Sent from my POCO F1 using XDA Labs
yes, vendor is of course zip not img.
Thank you for helping me!
I was using the all in one tool to Flash TWRP again with the Checkbox "root" activated, booted recovery and went though a whole new clean install, device is running fine again.
I am Kind of afraid to touch the OTA update Option ever again. Seems that when updating via OTA, one Need to still checkout compatibility of all other zips and TWRP Version etc.
So the effort is the same to do a clean install with all updated.
