Can you get into flashmode (with the phone switched off, hold volume down key then plug it in to your PC)?
If you can, flash a stock rom with Flashtool and be sure to tick all three wipe options.
You'll have to root again after flashing the stock rom.
Hi,
After updating to 4.2.2 I rooted my Xperia by ibtimes.co.uk/articles/484784/20130630/xperia-z-root-android422-jellybean-locked-bootloader.htm manual. And after successful rooting and installing some root apps I decided to install CWM recovery to backup my system. I installed the recovery following androidteen.com/sony-xperia-z-install-clockworkmod-cwm-recovery-with-locked-bootloader manual. Everything went nice and smooth and I entered the recovery mode (by pressing Vol Up while LED was green during booting) and made a backup (btw is that a nandroid backup?). The problem is that I can enter the recovery only once after "flashing" the phone with CWM. Any combination of volume keys, power key or LED will not let me enter it again later. Can anyone guide me how to enter to recovery mode anytime or fix this problem so I can use my backup if needed?
Thank you in advance!

Hey, i use to have this issue with the Z so i just installed this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261606 that should always let u into recovery, when the phone vibrates and the led goes green hold up. Yeah a backup is a nandroid backup. If you cant get that to work ill try help out further.
When exiting recovery did you answer the question with 'yes'? If so that's the problem. You have to answer no or have to flash a patch by doomlord.

There is no question when I exit recovery. The only option to exit recovery is reboot now (atleast I guess). What patch are you talking about? Could you provide me some link pls.
Well the dualboot is definitely last resort but I would rather fix this CWM issue :/
Yeah this happened to me also, you need to use the dual recovery instead

I don't see the point of a dual recovery. That recovery itself already contains CWM and add TWRP. What would I need 2 recoveries? There should be a way how to make CWM work somehow. Hmmm :/

Nobody seems to be maintaining the older releases of the recoveries for locked bootloaders. This is a known issue with them on 4.2.2 firmwares.
Just install the dual recovery and use only CWM recovery. You will literally notice no difference.

I've got the same problem.
so... I installed XZ Dual Recovery AND the zip file.... Flashed the Honami port (eXistenZ Ultra V1) and flashed the Dual recovery at the same time ( just as it says to do)
Now i can enter TWRP no problem, but when i push volume up it just sends the LED purple, and stays on the sony logo...
any one else having this problem???
Thanks so much for posting this, worked like a charm!
Hi, I also have some issues with getting into recovery mode. Ive bought this handheld not long ago, and deceided to unlock the bootloader and root it, than flash a custom ROM. Unlocked with code received from Sony, rooted with towelroot. I transferred the .zip to the sd, but somehow Im not able to put the device into recovery mode. The LED doesnt light up when I turn the device on. I push the vol button, but no effect. Tried apps to reboot into recovery mode, but the phone everytime reboots normaly...
i have the same problem

Yeah my LED never turns green, it seems to turn a purplish color after the Sony logo comes up.
This is so frustrating, is there a tool similar to odin that I can use to flash back to stock?

Bro I had try this several time but cant enter recovery mode....
You actually need to have flashed a custom recovery to be able to enter it.....
In your case, you will have to downgrade to a 4.2.2 stock rom, then install XZDualRecovery with the unrooted install method, as there is no way to directly root the firmware version you currently have installed without unlocking the bootloader.

Hello, my Z1 doesn't enter in recovery mode. I've tried with TWRP and CWM and it doesn't work. I tried in classic way (turn off the phone, hold the power button+vol. down and I've tried with both vol buttons) and with ADB is just restarting normally.
Notification light must be on when I turn on the phone but mine doesn't do that:crying:

Did u have try to re flash cwm or twrp?
I have the same problem. Yes I've tried to reflash TWRP and CWM and nothing happend
try installing ndr utils and see if it helps
I've tried and nothing happend. I still can't get in recovery mode. Maybe the motherboard is broken?
I have the same problem sometimes, when i flash new ROM.
Try flashing Philz dual?
LB or UB?
if unlocked bootloader flash latest ta that enables real recovery then
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
This way you won't lose recovery even if you mess up the boot(kernel) partition
Reinstall NUT Recovery
Hi,
First of all install NUT Recovery for you Xperia Z1 and after installation of recovery turn off your phone.
Turn on your phone and repeatedly press the Vol Down Key until you see the purple color in LED Notification.
Then you can see the TWRP Recovery.
Hi guys, i'm facing few problems to flash ROM [7.1.2] [OMS] [OFFICIAL] [T/TX] Resurrection Remix Nougat v5.8.3
1- I can't enter "recovery mode" on my Xperia Tx Lt29i. I follow the step by long pressing power button + vol up button. Even tried with power button + vol down button. Still can't enter recovery mode.
**Currently running on stock rom 4.3 jellybean. I've rooted my phone using Kingroot and this was verified via "RootChecker". Also have unlocked boatloader earlier successfully.
2-I've installed "Flashify" but was not responding and keep freezing. Why?
3-Can't flash TWRP custom recovery (latest version) using "Flashify" but managed to done it via OfficalTWRP which i download from playstore. But still can't enter the recovery mode.
May i know which part that i missed? and what should i do to complete this part? Really need your guidance urgently.
Pls refer to photos attached for reference.
Thank a bunch!
