XZDR recovery is not working good with installing custom roms like cm,fxp, etc.
You need to unpack .rar with CM12.1 flash boot.img via fastboot, after that enter recovery and flash CM firmware zip from recovery.

Xperia Z Ultra giving Failed to mount /system error :(

Hi All,
I was trying to flash the hybrid_concept_edition into my Xperia Z Ultra thru TWRP 2.8.x but I am getting message as "Failed to mount /system". How can i overcome this situation ? Will I be able to install cm-12.1 or should I go back to the stock rom ?
Right now i don't have any OS present in the phone as i installed a wrong kernel on the stock rom (5.1.1) and it messed up everything. I had unlocked bootloader by following the steps mentioned in Sony website using the unlockcode. Please help me

CM12, rooted, working but can't install/access Recovery, please help

Hi, I've my ZU with CM12. If I try to boot into recovery, the phone loop at SONY logo. When i run TWRP Manager, it shows:
App Version: 9.0
TWRP Version: TWRP 2.8.7.0
If i tap in Install TWRP:
Device Name: Sony Xperia Z Ultra
Recovery Installed: TWRP 2.8.7.0
If i select to install another version, for example twrp-2.8.5.0 thats it's the hightest in the list, the file is downloaded, and shows:
Code:
[B]Something went wrong[/B]
Flashing recovery was unsuccessful. Either you already have this recovery installed or another error has occurred. Would you like to attemp rebooting to recovery now?
If i tap in REBOOT NOW the phone loops at SONY logo again. How i can fix it?

TWRP Error while flashing RR v6 on my SGP321

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

Installation of any custom rom like LOS, RR, CR and others is impossible on your device, because of unlockable bootloader.
