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

Hello,
I rooted my LT30P with a bat program from this site, then i installed CWM. The problem is that I cannot update my phone through OTA because when I tap restart and update, it enters CWM and shows me an error. I think it's because I need the original recovery. Can I get the original recovery back without reflashing my Rom? I just want the original recovery to update my phone, nothing more.
I dont understand what is your probleme exactly but did you tried to use Flashtool ?

I rooted my phone with bin4ry method. Then, I installed CWM for my Xperia T (found in a thread on xda). Now my phones asks me for update, but I can't update because of CWM. Even if I try, it downloads the update package normally and tells me it will restart and install the new update. When it restarts, it enters CWM and tries to flash the new version. After a seconds, a error pops up saying there is a problem etc.. Before I installed CWM, I could update my phone without flashing it from pc and so on. I saw you told something about flashtool. What is it for, and what can I do with it?
Is your Xperia T Unlocked ? If yes Then Install Team Win Recovery 2.7.0.0 with fastboot and Install a Costum Rom you will have a batter version than the officiel

Why would he need to do that? He can flash custom rom from current recovery, he doesn't unlocked bootloader for that. He needs unlocked bootloader only if wants to flash AOSP based rom (CM, OMNI...).
Hello people.I am a noob to rooting phones.I recently rooted my Sony Xperia ZR running stock rom , Kitkat 4.4.2
I used Towelroot by Geohotz to root the phone and have unlocked the bootloader with the official procedure of unlocking bootloaders
I would like to install TWRP or CWM custom recovery but i am unable to since i cant boot into recovery.
I tried quick boot and the hardware combinations but in vain
build number : 10.5.A.0.230
kernel : 3.4.0-perf-g32ce454
*********
I have now been able to flash the clockworkmod zip using flashify still ahvent been able to get into recovery mode
http://nut.xperia-files.com
Download the latest version for the ZR, and be sure to get the one that has 'installer' in its name. Extract and run install.bat and there you go - the latest PhilZ touch and TWRP. In fact, this is the only way I know of to get TWRP above 2.6.3.0 for the ZR.
The xperia ZR(c5502) is a great phone but a pain in the ass when it comes to finding anything on custom recovery for it. Does the dual boot work on unlocked bootloader cos mine is.
I have this ROOTED XSP .205 with LOCKED bootloader and I was trying to install CWM recovery by following a procedure that was only for Locked Bootloader Xperia Sp but I couldn't install it.
First in the cmd it was giving
'can't find specific path'
Then I found out that I needed to extract that zip file to C: that I did and after that im getting,
'You've selected Xperia SP, let's go"
And it is stuck on that, getting nowhere.
Im a newbie so not have much idea if someone can help that'd be a life saviour, please.
Have u tried again after restarting the computer and phone??
I am also trying to do so but stuck on *daemon started successfully*
After that cmd window stuck there. So any one have answer please let me know.
Sent from my C5302 using XDA Free mobile app
Try flashing recovery .img file with Rashr
You can't install CWM Recovery without a CWM Rom , and I think you can't install locked bootloader on unlocked bootloader, I recommend use Flash Tools and Unlock your bootloader. And Flash a Kernel with TWRP Recovery and Wipe and Flash a CWM Rom (huashan ROM for Xperia SP) after it you get CWM Recovery and TWRP Recovery for extra I recommend use Helium Kernel to do it

hello can you help me with somehting i am on android 4.3 in xperia sp yesterday i have deleted my prima files by mistake can you upload them for me from your phoone
I found installing XZDualRecovery very easy. You get TWRP, CWM and PhilZ.
-install supersu from play store
-activate usb debug in developer options
-unzip xzdualrecovery file
-run install program from the unzipped folder
-follow steps on the screen, you will have to grant supersu access on your phone at some point.

Seems like there is no recovery flashed.
Had the same problem. After flashing recovery again the problem was gone and I could access recovery.

My bootloader is unlocked. I am using nuts xzdualrecovery. With the help of Google search for nuts xz dual recovery. From there download the installer for your phone.
That's what I used. Follow the instructions and your custom recovery should be installed.
If
Unlocked bootloader=true
Then install XZdual Recovery By Nut
If
Unlocked bootloader=false
Then TWRP MANAGER FROM GOOGLE PLAY STORE
notes:
#if u used dual recovery u should have supersu not kingroot.... It may work with kingroot but prefered supersu
#if you used twrp manager u must have busybox installed on your device to use dd command

Hi guys,
I want to flash this ROM>> [ROM][LB/UB][LP 5.1.1 .228][ v5.0.3 ] CustomiZed Sony 5.1.1 | The Fully featured ROM!.
About my phone:
I have Sony Xperia Z C6603 with customized Indian firmware 5.1.1 i.e. 10.7.A.0.222.
Bootloader unlocked? = NO
Bootloader unlock allowed? = NO
Root status = YES, rooted by kingroot
Busybox installed!!
So I wanted to flash that firmware to my xperia Z. This is my first time of flashing firmware. I know how to flash from recovery mode, but now I am stuck on recovery. I am not able to go in recovery. I tried several method to go in stock recovery like pressing volume up or down key while booting but nothing helped. Then I tried TWRP recovery. I flashed recovery, it downloaded the recovery and flashed. Even I got message that recovery flashing successful. Then when it asked would you like to reboot and try to go in recovery? Yes. Then it rebooted like normal. No recovery, nothing!! Now, the recovery status in TWRP recovery is saying custom recovery is not installed, that I installed before reboot. I tried direct flashing the zip rom from the app (they have a option to flash roms). I checked to wipe cache, dalvik and again it rebooted as normal. Nothing!!
Please help me to go in recovery mode!!!
Thanks

you cant boot into stock recovery, you cant do anything with stock recovery. So you need a custom one like TWRP or Philz Touch.
Ok now that this is settled, did you move to Supersu?
