Installing the new Sony Bootloader and Recovery
THIS IS FOR ALREADY UNLOCKED DEVICES!
DO NOT TRY THIS ON A GPE!Since a lot of people seem to have problems keeping their recovery when flashing Lollipop-ROMs i decided to put up this little guide...
You can also Skip this whole guide, by just flashing the newest stock-FW at least once!
First off, as already said, this is for already unlocked devices. You can use this Guide until "Install Custom ROM", except the rooting part, for rooting use this, if you haven't already!
Don't do it if you don't atleast somewhat know what you are doing.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, or whatever you might end up with.
So, lets get started.
1. Download Sonys FlashTool "EMMA" and install it: http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/tool/flash-tool-for-xperia-devices/
In the .zip file from the FlashTool you'll find a File "customization.ini"
Copy this file to the installation directory of EMMA, usually "C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony Mobile\Emma"
If you don't copy that file, Emma will ask you for a login, don't create an account there, you will NEVER get any activation-email!
2. Open EMMA and boot your Phone into FlashMode (Power off your device -> Press and hold volume DOWN -> while pressing volume DOWN insert USB-Cable)
3. Emma should now recognize your device, but you have to select it manually tough. Select your EXACT model number. Again, I am not responsible for any bricked devices or whatever you end up with!
Now select the "(Open Devices) TA update" and click "Apply Service"
It should take a few seconds and should then display SUCCESS.
You can now close Emma
4. If you haven't already download FastBoot and Drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118
(Run as Administrator!)
5. Download the newest version of twrp and put it somewhere:
New Inoffcial twrp-3.0.0 build by me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/development/togari-twrp-recovery-3-0-0-t3314440
Old official versions: https://twrp.me/devices/sonyxperiazultra.html
6. Finally boot up you Phone in FastBoot-mode (Power off -> press and hold volume UP -> while pressing wolume UP insert USB-Cable
Your LED should now light up blue
Shift+Rightklick in the Folder where you have put TWRP recovery, and select "Open Commandprompt here"
Now write "fastboot flash recovery FILENAME_OF_TWRP_FILE"
You can now unplug your USB-Cable and boot into recovery and continue from there.
Your recovery will be permanent, meaning you won't loose it or replace with any other recovery that might come with your ROM.
I hope this was somewhat helpfull
Any one can flash this to C6806?

You can try, just select your modelnumber in emma
If the "Open Devices (TA Update)" show up, you're fine. If not just don't do anything.
But do not try this on a GPE!

tried, but no luck. thanks.
It's really weird, I used emma, and installed their latest ta update. Now I can get into fastboot mode, all commands execute successfully, but the recovery never takes. The vol down + Power doesn't work, nor does 'adb reboot recovery'. Am I missing a step somewhere? This isn't my first android device, but from where I sit, it seems like something is up with my xzu.
If I try and install the 14.4* update through emma, it goes through the whole process, completes "successfully", then boots into 14.5. Something is clearly not working here.
The TA update only unlocks the ability to boot to recovery, it doesn't install one. And no, flashing official TWRP to recovery partition doesn't work, it must be compiled again to work on normal recovery partition and not in FOTAKernel, where it must be flashed to work.

I´m on CM 11 M12 (looking forward to 12) + the new sony bootloader without any custom Kernel stuff.
Sadly, you are right. It´s not done with downloading twrp-2.8.5.0-togari.img and fastboot flash recovery yourfile.img.
The last offical TWRP release for Xperia Z Ultra is from february 2015, any chance they release an updated version for the new Sony bootloader?

Is there any (wish for TWRP) recovery for togari, which use the new bootoader?
FYI:
My device is a brazilian c6843.
Emma recognizes the device automatically and indicates with an exclamation point that there is no services available to the unit.
In the case someone doesn't know, it's basically the c6833 with DTV 1seg. It's totally compatible with c6833 firmware, losing TV, of course.
You sir are the real hero! Thank you!
I have a xzu running cm12.1, and I have 2 quick questions for those with more knowledge than me
Is it possible to flash the new bootloder using the open source FlashTool?
If I have to use emma, is it possible to just apply the open device ta update *without* installing stock firmware first?

You can totally do that, BUT, the newest stock firmware also has some firmware updates regarding nfc, also having the newest stock rom flashed at least once will be kind of a requirement to get everything properly working on marshmallow roms.
So I would say flash the newest stock rom at least once!

I followed your advice, but it seems I am missing a few clues.
My sirius was on cm12.1. I backedup and flashed D6543_23.4.A.1.232_1281-5466_R6C.ftf with flashtool on linux. I tried to use emma (several times) afterwards to check for any TA updates, but all I got was "no services matched this device" or something like that. Google tells me I am not the only one with this issue with emma
Then I used fastboot to install twrp 3 from twrp.me to recovery partition, but I could not access twrp.
I fastbooted recovery again with twrp 2.8.7, and this time I could enter twrp and reflashed CM.
Now I can access twrp using the button combinations while booting, but rebooting to recovery from CM leads to a bootloop. Has anyone experienced this as well?
So it seems I am still missing a few clues to using the recovery partition. Is any build of twrp supposed to work on both FOTAkernel and recovery partitions?
Is there a TWRP 3 build that works from 'coldboot to recovery' and 'cm reboot to recovery' with the new bootloader? Any pointers?

Well, booting to recovery on separate partition from os, requires the rom to have a patch... the "new" mm-roms (when they finally hit aka. are ready to be shared in public) will have that, so no worry, just wait.
why it said my phone have no available service, i am on c6833

Search the forums on how to backup TA partitions. I have mine but never tried to restore them
so.. i have an Lg d618 rooted and running official L 5.0.2
i wanted to flash a custom recovery so i started with patching bootloader using this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/bootloader-d620-d618-t3127819
then i installed TWRP using this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/recovery-lg-g2-mini-d618-v10c-t2854493
by flashing the img file with Flashify
the the phone rebooted and i got the TWRP interface
http://img.wonderhowto.com/img/39/2...only-custom-recovery-youll-ever-need.w654.jpg
and when i press reboot i got this
http://img.wonderhowto.com/img/38/1...only-custom-recovery-youll-ever-need.w654.jpg
If I reboot into System - I wind up at the TWRP screen again after the LG logo.
If I reboot into Recovery - I got that android logo like i have no recovery installed
If I reboot into Bootloader - I wind up at the TWRP screen again after the LG logo.
If I reboot into Power Off - when I power on I wind up at the TWRP screen again after the LG logo.

Followed you from the other spot...
It sounds like Flashify plunked recovery on your boot/kernel partition (assuming your recovery you described is still stock - that is - Andy laying down with the front panel open). So, I would suggest to ADB push your official L 5.0.2 boot.img while in TWRP and flash that (to boot), and you should be golden.
Also, from my perspective it's hard for me to say your bootloader is acting up, as I have a different LG device and it's bootloader does not have fastboot. It's front-end is only a shim that makes you factory reset to get into recovery mode (it's only function).
Hope this helps.

Did you still have TWRP installed after flashing the KDZ file normal mode? Is your bootloader still unlocked?

Long story - Tried to apply the latest Marshmallow rooted package for D6503 on my 6502 that was already rooted with XZ dual recovery. It installed successfully, was rooted too...but I forgot to add the patch that would fix the radio not working. So I try to reboot to recovery...and that doesn't work anymore. I tried installing TWRP recovery from the manager app, but it wouldn't reboot. Then I ran the XZ recovery installer externally, and now my phone is ****ed. Stuck at an infinite boot loop.
At this stage the only thing I can access is flashtool and fastboot, and since my bootloader is locked I can't flash a recovery that way (nor do I want to permanently lose DRM keys/camera quality as I've heard happens with unlocking the bootloader). I have a memory card and I used the option to disable loading the recovery specified on the XZ thread by adding a 'donotload' file on the sd card.
Still no use - I get a Sony logo for about 5 seconds, the screen goes dark and back to the same. At this point probably my recovery is screwed up or non existent and a bad situation has gone worse with the bootloop.
What can I try now?
@KaiserSnorezay
XZDR is still not compatible with MM, that's why you got a bootloop...
Also you can't install the "regular" TWRP with twrp manager on a LB as there is no recovery partition... it won't work and probably will mess your phone in the process.
The solution is to flash any KK / LP .ftf with flashtool (i would wipe everything when flashing as i have backups of my data/apps) , root it with kingroot or any other method you like, install xzdr for KK/LP and finally reboot to recovery and install the latest MM prerooted rom from niaboc which already has root&recovery (not xzdr btw) included. Since you have D6502 don't forget to install the baseband patch after the rom again
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/rom-official-6-0-1-23-5-0-486-beta-t3336770
Just did it exactly this way yesterday on my friends d6503 (minus the d6502 patch obviously) had 0 troubles MM, root and recovery working perfectly.
Thanks, will try this today. Is wiping data required or can i get by by just flashing the older one?

I managed to flash and root 17.1.2.A.0.314, but once again I'm unable to get any damn recovery to work. Installed XZDR, after that TWRP, in both cases it refuses to boot into recovery mode. What am I missing?

Weird, after you have your phone rooted it should be simple to install xzdr... just enable usb debugging in the phone and make sure you have the adb drivers correctly installed in your pc.
Download the latest xzdr from nut's thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261606 ) unzip it and run install.bat . After a successful install the phone should reboot to twrp automatically and it's done.
Okay, I fixed it..using Flashfire! No idea why the recovery didn't work earlier, but now finally I'm on Marshmallow. Thanks for the help!

hey bro, just read your post. Yesterday i got an update msg in my software update menu of my Xperia Z2 D6502. After i updated i went into bootloop. i have very important stuff in my phone. i updated earlier too all the updates that sony servers inform about. so then i thought to flash with the stock file. Although i didnt knew the firmware number , i just flashed with 5.1.1 , 1st with Customized IN & later with of US. Both of them didn't work as well. Please help me out. I'm not much aware about this root stuff & all. hope to get reply soon from you or anyone in this forum.

Try what ptmaniac suggested - flash an older FTF that can be rooted (more recent ones can't), root it, install recovery and then flash the newest build.
You'll have to improve your Google-fu to find a suitable firmware and a root technique for it.

okay. you mean flashing any old firmware ( which i did and still in bootloop ) & root it. Then installing recovery for the same firmware ?
with "recovery" will i be able to get back my whole data ?

Sorry, I ditched my Z2 for a Oneplus 3 in August 2016. Learnt my lesson, only going to use phones with easily unlockable bootloaders.
So, I accidentally deleted my OS through TWRP recovery while I was trying to clear the cache. Now the device is stuck at the Xperia logo and I can't even access TWRP anymore. I can't get flashtool to recognize my device either. I don't know what to do. Is my device doomed? Any help would be really appreciated.

I also deleted everything on my Z2 a couple of weeks ago and thought it was dead, but my PC detected my Z2 in fastboot immediately.
Check your drivers and try with a different USB cable; maybe other PC?...
Enter fastboot mode and then flash a kernel with TWRP.
brother,
For locked bootloaders the TWRP is a part of the ROM. never do a wipe system in TWRP with Locked bootloader.
but don't worry and be sure your device isn't dead at all. just follow the below steps in the link in order to use flashtool and flash your phone, I recomend using the old following version of flashtool http://www.flashtool.net/downloads_windows_prev.php

Working/Bugs
I have just tested on 16 GB variant and all seems to be working. If something is broken lemme know.
IMPORTANT NOTE :
At first boot twrp will ask for "Swipe to allow modifications for /system" and if you choose to allow it system partition will get modified. So if you choose to reboot back to OS without performing anything in twrp, the OS won't boot (as verity check is enabled in stock OS/kernel) . To avoid this you have to flash either SuperSU or flash any of the verity disabler zips there in xda
Force encryption is enabled by default in stock OS and twrp will successfully decrypt /data at first boot if all goes well
If in case decryption doesn't go fine, twrp will popup a dialog box asking for password and that means decryption went wrong and you would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to twrp for functioning of /data

Make sure you have unlocked bootloader

Hi Santhosh
Will this TWRP work on Moto G5 model xt1670?
If so, can it be rooted using twrp temporary boot?
EDIT: I have tried this several time, I'm always getting stuck at boot, after the first data wipe, only solution is to install stock system again.
I have the Modem Version: M8937_8000.122.02.40R, 32GB
I'm offering to test
Thanks
Works fine for the most part, though reboot options Bootloader and Power Off doesn't work, just restarts normally.

If all works fine for you would like you to make reply in the thread with detailed flashing instructions as i am not sure why few in thread have issues
can this version of twrp be used for POTTER version of moto G5 plus?
After installing TWRP my Phone stucks at the "Your device has been unlocked" screen. My system seems to be gone. I've downloaded the image from the other thread and tried to sideload it, but twrp says it's in the wrong format. TWRP boots fine
(Anyone who can upload a fully working NANDROID or sth like that?)
What can i do :/?
Edit: Solved. Unzipped the firmware and flashed manually via fastboot. Working fine!
But then again at the startup of the recovery, there's the encryption message. What to wipe now, that it'll work? Wiping /data ends in boot loop...

I'm booting into recovery, cancel the encryption password verification, swipe to allow modification, wipe & format data -> Bootloop
Flashing system (and only system, not recovery etc) -> Phone boots normally, twrp ist gone ...
