To flash LOS you need custom kernel with built-in TWRP.
If you try to flash custom rom from XZDualRecovery it'll give you an error, cause it's not meant to be used with custom roms.
So just unpack boot.img from ROM's zip, flash boot.img with flashtool/rashr/fastboot, then enter recovery by pressing vol- on boot and flash rom zip via recovery. Additionally you may also flash gapps/supersu.

Hi, please help. I cannot flash (select) boot.img in flashtool.
The tutorial is not working for me so I decided to flash Lineage OS with flashtool like you mentioned.
Can you give a step-by-step guide for noobs like me for flashtool (ver 0.9.23.1)? I have the SGP321 with android 5.1.1

You'd better use Flashtool version 0.9.18.6. Tutorial is here.

Cant you enter into flashmode????
Question
Need More details:
1)Locked or Unlocked Bootloader?
2)Which stock kernel you flashed? Downloaded from?
3)[If Locked Bootloader] Can you enter xrecovery? If can, make full wipe, clear cache partition, install new ROM via "install custom zip from SDcard.
4)[If Unlocked Bootloader] Try flash some custom Kernel for Unlocked bootloader like DooMKernel, see whether it reach recovery mode or not.
Sincerely,
whitefang
If can, pls kindly hit thanks button as an appreciation
YES

If yoy have recovery on your phone, try flashing the stock prerooted lollipop made by @niaboc79 found in android development.
if you dont have recovery, you can try out the dual recoovery by @Nut, located in original android development.
hope this helps

You could also update to your lollipop again,
Get these things ready
- latest supersu flashable zip
- flashable lollipop supported kernel of your device
download any supported lollipop kernel of your device with recovery , extract the img and flash it using flashtool. After flashing the img, unplug the phone, power it and enter recovery. Now flash the kernel zip again, then flash the superSU zip and reboot. Now you have recovery and root working perfectly.
Just a heads up. Flashing custom kernel requires a unlocked bootloader.

¿How to enter in recovery mode?

After flashing the last german rom 6.0.1 with xperifirm, I am not able to enter the recovery mode. I followed all the tutorials, all possible combinations with the keys, all programs (with and without root), etc.
Any ideas?
As far as I know, you flashed with ftf rom, which wiped thoroughly custom recovery. You need to revert to 4.4 kitkat, root it, get custom recovery, than flash it with android 6.0, but only using flashable prerooted rom in zip file with custom recovery

Use build number 314. It is available on XperiFirm. Use XZDR .21 to install the Xperia Z Dual Recovery. It will temporarily root with TowelRoot to be able to installa the recovery. After the installation the phone will reboot; now you have 2 choices: Install the SuperSU .zip to keep root on KitKat or directly install a Marshmallow ROM

Help upgrading my rooted 4.4.4 D6503 to latest version

Hi,
I have a Sony Xperia Z2 D6503 with Android 4.4.4 KK already rooted.
Now I would like to upgrade my Android to the latest available stock Rom without losing root, DualRecovery or my data, in order to be able to use Magisk.
Could you tell me the best way to do that?? I assume I have to create a pre-rooted Firmware and upgrade through DualRecovery. How would I do that??
Thanks so much for your help in adavnce!
You can download the firmware you want from this topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...-z2-d6503-customised-tur-23-5-t3442058/page10
Thanks, so I download the Firmware from the thread you linked to, Flash it with flashtool and that's it already??

NO flash it with recovery
And press the thanks button if i helped
Do I have to Flash bootfix, and supersu after this zip again?? I don't really understand the instructions in the other thread, because These zips are already included, so they should be flashed with the complete package or not??
Thanks, I clicked the button as well

There is no need to flash anything else just download the the customization you want(like Mena Arabic for persian language)and there is almost zero different between them
And flash it through recovery and there is no need for fix many times but if you got stuck in bootloop just flash the bootloop fix : https://mega.nz/#!AJcwERiQ!FUmk6eS5aoVsFSZ1f4WZIELIt7sckPCj11n0AIdCNzU
Okay thanks so much, this is what I thought. Download the zip, install via Recovery and thats it. Perfect
How did you root kitkat 4.4.4? Do you have pre root firmware for 4.4.4?
