good morning all ,
i have xperia ZR with 10.5.1.A.283 stock rom inside (KK 4.4.4).
in order to try some custom roms, i have unlocked the bootloader.
now i have tried all the combination of hard keys to boot into stock boot loader but i can't.
i want to install cwm or twrp but i don't find a way to boot into recovery,
is there any one who can tell me if there is another way to flash a kernel with cwm or twrp inside or any other way to boot into recovery .
thanks in advance

you may try flashing a custom kernel which has recovery included in it. you will need flashtool

Unlocked rooted xperiaz..
installed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2190936
(tried also with cwm)
After entering recovery cwm or twrp i can choose ROM: (tried paranoid android)
I'm on the latest stock firmware btw... 244..
After flashing i only get a red light, and nothing else works.. can get to flas mode and flash stock ROM, but everytime i try a custom rom it fails..
Where am i going wrong? I Know i **** up somewhere, but can't see where...
Try flashing the Kernel from Paranoid Android by itself. Inside the rom's zip there ahould be an image called boot.img. Flash via fasboot on Flashtool.
Now enter recovery and follow the normal procedure.
First of all that link to TWRP is for locked bootloaders. You need to have an unlocked bootloader to install a custom rom
To get recovery just flash the boot.img which is inside the rom .zip folder
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then enter recovery and flash the zip then gapps.
So this is what happened:
I wanted to flash a custom rom on my xperia Z.
I did what i have to do like unlocking the bootloader, rooting and installing a custom recovery.
I already downloaded my desired custom rom. When I entered into custom recovery I wiped everything as in everything under the Wipe menu of TWRP. After that I went to reboot to recovery. Unfortunately the phone did not reboot anymore. Just stucked at the sony logo. Now it cannot go to fastboot, flashmode or custom recovery. My computer cannot detect the phone as well.
Is there any way that I can still flash rom into my phone with the above situation?
Any help is much appreciated. Tia!

Are u sure you've installed the correct drivers (fastboot, flashmode, adb)? If so, fastboot any custom kernel (with recovery) and you'll have recovery.
You wiped system, but I assume you had xzdualrecovery installed, and since it installs in system you lose recovery after wiping system and reboot.
Kernel with recovery is best option, you can safely wipe since kernel does not get wiped (only overwritten by rom or other kernel)
Hi langveld! Thank you for your reply..But i cannot go into fastboot.. Will it still do?

i guess you can only use the flashtools now, first try selecting kernel only for flashing without wiping anything. And if that doesnt work, then you have to flash the whole firmware. try holding vol down when connecting, i got into fastboot mode like that last time. good luck

Your bootloader is locked? If yes, you must unlock it in order to install TWRP via installer.
But, if you want a recovery and bootloader locked, the only solution is to install XZ DUAL Recovery

THE bootloader is unlocked .
i want any recovery right now to install a custom rom i'm not seeking for a special recovery any one of the two you mentioned would be great if i could install it:angel:
Can I use the stock rom with the offical twrp?
If I can somebody could tell me how to boot the system because If I install twrp as a Kernel image It can t boot.
in order to use Official TWRP Recovery, you should unlock your Z1 to access the Recovery partition and after that you can do it.

Jeah I know that but i get a message back :tmp-mksh:fastboot: not found . And i tryed to install it with NUT s recovery's twrp but if I install it to FOTAkernel just the recovery boot. Maybe fastboot driver what I should have but I installed that long time ago. Sorry for my english.
in the other side of the coin you should reinstall fastboot and drivers.

rest factory from twrp and not working also
any help please ?
can anyone answer, same case with me?
Hey guys, did you fix this? And if yes, how?
You can't flash recovery on stock ROM that way because after that the ROM will not boot. I think now you have to either flash stock ROM again via Flashtool or flash any custom one using recovery you have installed.
