New Recovery 6.0.4.8 - Xperia Z1 Compact General

As the recovery is now a standalone file and it's no more integrated in the boot.img file, i suggest to everyone on cyanogenmod build (> may 09) to flash the new recovery.
Look here : http://jenkins.cyanogenmod.org/job/recovery/63284/
Flash this nightly recovery, with fastboot like this :
- power off
- vol. up pressed
- usb cable in the phone
- cd \(your fastboot folder)
- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
- fastboot reboot (your phone)
- power off
- power button + vol. up when it's pink
:good:

Thanx, man. But I didn't see any commits about this. Could you point me on any? And, maybe, there is any TWRP for Z1 compact?

Ok so I flash the ROM using KDZ Updater = All well and good.
Now I follow your commands to enter this "fastboot business", I get the LG logo come up then it goes to a black screen... So I assumed it was in fastboot?? (not sure what fastboot is lol)
Then I got to windows command prompt I assume u mean? and type the command in pointing it to the android SDK tools folder?
Then I enter the command and it just stays on <Waiting for device> and thats as far as I get? hmm...
ALSO THE PHONE WAS PURCHASED FROM CARPHONE WAREHOUSE WHICH NO MATTER WHAT METHOD I TRY TO ROOT THE PHONE IT DOESNT HAVE IT! Dunno why??
Hi! if i already updated with Baltic V20D Official can i reflash with that one so that i can get Fastboot? ;o

Enjoy.
Please i need help c: i run 2.2.1 openswift and if i flash clockwork is my rom gone then?
i really don't want to flash with adb again The brick chance is to big :c
The answer is No, Because the recovery will be in different partition. so u will not loose your ROM if u flash with new recovery.img
Guys,how do I go from 2.2.1 to 2.1 I tried with kdz but I showed Arm 11 crash!!!!
Arm 11 crash
Last week i also got this error.. but don't worry
follow this u should be able to come out from this issue
1. Remove battery,SIM,Memory card from your phone
2. Connect you phone with your PC using USB cable
3. When its booting press Volume down and Power button until it shows download mode in the phone screen
4. Remove your USB cable from PC
5. Insert the battery
6. Now try to flash your phone using KDZ software update (use the ROM with fastboot)
if u don't hv ROM with fastboot download it from here http://www.mediafire.com/?4r5n1cj5v49151p
Always it is better to,
1. Unroot your phone before flashing with KDZ software ( i don't know why, but i got Arm 11 crash when i tried to flash with out unrooting)
2. Wait while updating if it stuck at call_fun upgrade or Change to Dload Mode
hope it helps

Root on latest jellybean build

I updated my tablet to latest jellybaen thoug asus website. How can i get root access now?
1 click root tool dont works with latest build.... Is there any other way?
Build number: 10.4.2.13-20120907
Only way on JB is unlock and flash custom recovery.
Then you can flash the root zip.

Indeed, you are on latest JB
You have one solution:
You could use this part which come from this guide that I modified a little : [GUIDE]Upgrade your TF300t to Jellybean, recovery, root & remove bloatware[Noobproof] by krabappel2548
== Part 3 - Install recovery and rooting ==
Let's start with installing the recovery
1) Download these 2 files:
- Jellybean recovery with fastboot files: Fastboot files + JB recovery
- Root files => Root files
- You can also download the new CWM Touch recovery if you don't like TWRP: CWM Touch recovery thread or TWRP recovery and download this file : openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-tf300t-JB.blob
2) Extract the recovery with fastboot files zip and open a command prompt in the same folder of the adb and fastboot files (Shift + Right mouse)
3) Reboot into the bootloader of your tablet, type: adb reboot bootloader
4) When your tablet has reached the bootloader navigate with volume down to the usb icon and press volume up to confirm.
5) To flash the recovery type:
- TWRP: fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.blob
- CWM: fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery CWM-Touch.blob
6) A blue bar will appear and the recovery will be installed, when the blue bar is filled press volume up + power button to reboot into the tablet.
Now we will root the tablet
7) Copy Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed to the internal storage of your tablet. then reboot into the bootloader again.
8) This time you need to select the RCK icon with volume up to enter the recovery image.
9) In recovery flash Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed and reboot into the system
10) Install Supersu from Google Play
11) Open up Supersu, it will ask you to update the binary, choose yes.
12) Now your tablet should be rooted

This part works well
But if you try, can you write a report please
FYI recommend twrp for your recovery. Seems to do much better for flashing.

Indeed !
If you want to install a custom recovery, you need to unlock your device.
Unlocking was the best decision I made with this tablet. Currently running CleanROM, gonna give CM10 a try now that have they have it working on the JB bootloader.
I can't get it to flash recovery. When I go to the usb symbol it just hangs on "starting fastboot usb download protocol"
Nothing after that just stays right there. Any help would be awesome!

Unable to install twrp in redmi 2

So, I followed anandmore's thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-2/how-to/ultimate-guide-redmi-2-users-rooting-to-t3294212:
I did following commands in fastboot mode -
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
But after rebooting, it gets stuck on MI logo. What should I do?
Can you get into recovery? I don't remeber what button combination it is on stock rom, but on custom is it VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER, when phone light up, release power button and keep holding the volume buttons
The commands you need are
fastboot devices (for recognise the device)
fastboot flash recovery file.img (you can change the name file if you want, to be easy)
fastboot boot file.img (this command is necessary for the first boot into the new recovery flashed)
You need open the CMD ADB/Fastboot in the same file folder with the recovery.img, if not, not works
Hi, I had the same as you. You need to press the buttons as the other user said (volume up + down + power), when the phone is off. And hold them until you see twrp.
(FYI, the phone will boot with miui logo, then it takes maybe 15-30seconds to show twrp, you need to hold all the time I think, until twrp shows).
Thank you B.Paiter !!
"fastboot boot file.img (this command is necessary for the first boot into the new recovery flashed)" did it for me !

Phone stuck in Sony boot logo (not even charging), please help!

Hi Friends,
I have decided to create a new post, since I researched and it seems that my issue is not covered exactly by any previous thread.
I have Sony F5321, used years with Stock ROM. While playing a game, it turned off randomly, but when I play the same game while charging with USB cable (with AC charger or connected to a laptop), the phone was working fine. I have unlocked the bootloader and flashed LineageOS 16 (Android 9) in case a battery issue was solved better with LineageOS than with stock ROM. After some weeks with same (supposedly) battery issue, I decided to go back to Stock ROM. I have flashed OK with Flashtool (no errors), but phone is now stuck in Sony boot logo.
The status is:
1) Boot into Stock Rom: doesn’t work
2) Boot into recovery: doesn’t work
3) Force shut down (3 vibrations): works
4) Force reboot (1 vibration): doesn’t work, it stops at Sony boot logo
5) Charging while powered off: doesn’t work (no battery logo appears, red light)
6) Flashtool into flashmode: doesn’t work (it’s not detected)
7) Flashtool into fastboot mode: works, but I cannot do anything with that.
Please, your help, how can I get the phone works again? Preferably with Stock ROM, or any other stable ROM, but working! Thanks!
Nobody will help?

Sounds like hardware failure to me, happened to me before... However, if you can get into fastboot, just go ahead and flash back to a custom kernel and recovery, and see if you can boot to recovery. That will tell you if it's not a hardware issue, then you can figure out how to get back to stock...

I tried a lot of things now. To confirm, I tried to use Flashtool in fastboot mode, but not sure where I get a custom kernel file to use with Fastboot menu option "select kernel to flash" but I have downloaded again lineage-16.0-20200511-UNOFFICIAL-kugo.zip file, should I take "boot.img" from unzipped directory? and how to flash the twrp-3.3.1-0-kugo.img file with Flashtool? which is the option to flash recovery using Flashtool in fastboot mode?

Don't need Flashtool for fastboot. If you have the drivers installed, use your computer, and connect with the power off, holding the volume up button, and let go of the button when you see the blue led light, (if you don't get a blue led light, could be further evidence of a hardware issue). Now you're in fastboot mode.
Open a command prompt, and type "fastboot". If fastboot / adb is installed on your computer, and is set in the path, you will get a fastboot reply, if not, you will get, "fastboot is not recognized as a program or command...", or something like that. In that case, you need to either install fastboot, (look it up - it takes about 30 seconds), or, in the case of Linux or if you have the fastboot / adb files on your computer, but it's not in the Windows path, just change directory in your terminal to the directory where the files are, then try the command again.
Once you have fastboot working, just copy whatever you want to flash to the same directory you're in, and the commands are:
Kernel -
Code:
fastboot flash boot [name of file].img
Recovery -
Code:
fastboot flash recovery [name of file].img
ROM -
Code:
fastboot flash system [name of file].img
OEM (needed for recent AOSP -based roms) -
Code:
fastboot flash oem [name of file].img
Curious - how did you flash Lineage last time?

If I remember correctly, I have flashed the LineageOS (and also stock ROM downloaded by XperiFirm) with Flashtool in "flashmode", but then when I got the logo bootloop, it didnt work anymore. Only fastboot works. Not even booting in recovery mode seems to work.
I have already tried with fastboot in windows 10 cmd prompt (now called PowerShell).
fastboot flash boot boot.img --> works OK
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.3.1-0-kugo.img --> works OK
fastboot flash system [system file].img --> there's no other IMG file inside LineageOS zip file besides boot.img, if you could provide another custom ROM zip file which includes both boot.img and system.img, please let me know
in addition. after flashing recovery OK, I tried "fastboot boot recovery" and the phone boots into bootloop again.
after shutting it off, there's no way to get into recovery mode. Only sony logo and red light (or no light)

So you tried to hold power and volume down to get into recovery? Also, if the only file in the LOS zip is a boot img, then the zip is incomplete. Try one of the Omni roms from the roms thread here. I've used them for N, O, and P, and they all work fine. There's a link to the Sony OEM files in the first post...

Yes, I tried vol+down while power on, and it stuck in sony logo white screen. Also tried from fastboot mode with "fastboot boot recovery" and "fastboot boot twrp.img" and it says "rebooting" but it only disables fastboot mode (windows' typical unplug drive sound), but phone get stuck with blue light.
its really strange. Is it possible that the phone has a battery HW issue that avoids it to charge (sometimes the empty battery big icon black screen appears), and that issue avoids recovery or reboot process?

Maybe specific to battery, but any issue with the main board is going to caused general wackiness... Could be what's happening. Maybe it would be worth it to try a new battery. Have you already tried different cables?

yes, I have 2 USB 3.0 cables. Both works perfectly with my other phone Moto G6 plus, in fast charge mode. it I can flash anything in fastboot mode, but cannot reboot into recovery, do you have other option to try? I downloaded and flashed the Sony OEM file (8.1/9/10) and flashed with fastboot normally. Then I have downloaded the Omni WEEKLY zip file, but in the Omni XDA thread, it says that the zip file must be flashed from Recovery (copied into the SD card), but I cannot access Recovery. I really want to revive this phone.

Then I have downloaded the Omni WEEKLY zip file, but in the Omni XDA thread, it says that the zip file must be flashed from Recovery (copied into the SD card), but I cannot access Recovery. I really want to revive this phone.

Oh right - I forgot about that... Try AOSP https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962592899 Unzip it and there should be a system img in it...

Thanks for the link! I have downloaded and flashed all the IMG files inside with fastboot, everything OK. But the phone is still not rebooting to system nor to recovery mode. same behaviour. Stuck in sony logo.
