Known Issues and Frequently Asked Questions
Known Issues:
All known issues in PhilZ, TWRP and CWM on locked boot loaders apply, see their respective threads for more information.
Busybox updaters can kill XZDualRecovery, see the FAQ below for more information.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How to set the correct time & date in PhilZ 6.59.0
Boot to PhilZ Touch;
Tap 'Recovery Settings';
Tap 'Gui Preferences';
Tap 'Time Settings';
Tap 'Change date and time';
Tic one of the last 3 options in this menu to try it;
Reboot to PhilZ Touch to see if it sticks, if not, try another and reboot to see if it helped, do this for all options to try them;
If one of them does help but does not stick at reboot, tic 'Try Force Persist on Reboot' once (it will un-tic itself after a reboot).
Done!
NOTE: if it's close to being correct (max 15h difference before or after your time) you need to correct the timezone.
About TWRP 2.6 and the use of INTERNAL STORAGE

A workaround for this issue is to use TWRP's advanced options, after creating a backup you wish to move to the PC:
go back to the main menu
go to advanced
go to filemanager
navigate to /data/media/0/TWRP/BACKUPS/*SERIAL*/*BACKUPNAME*
select one of the backup files
press chmod button (the one without 755)
type 0664 and press go
repeat 5->7 for each of the files in the backup, you can skip boot and the md5 files.
reboot to system and you should be able to copy the files without problems.
Alternatively you can install adbd Insecure by @Chainfire (non-free app from Play, or for free from it's XDA thread) and run ADBd itself as root, which elevates the rights and omits the issue all together.
I think it's a feature and not a bug (as it secures your backups), but I'll try to convince Team Win to make the setuid/setguid a choice rather then a default.
Installation of XZDualRecovery on UNROOTED devices
The 2.8.21 and older installer package uses Easy Root Tool for various Xperia phones, it is able to gain root on all of the currently supported devices, allowing to install XZDR.
Confirmed working:
Z - C6603
Z1 Compact - D5503 (doesn't seem to work on JellyBean), SO-01F (docomo)
Z1 - C6903,
Z Ultra - C6802, C6833
ZR, C5502
Z2 - D6503
Z2 Tablet - SGP511, SGP512
ZL2 - SOL25
If you want to help me perfect this list, use the tool done by @zxz0O0 in his topic and try to root your device. When testing also try older ROM versions, the latest FW versions may have been patched.
Thanks @zxz0O0 for the initial list.
The rootless installation has been made possible by:
@geohot: Root exploit
@MohammadAG: Disable RIC kernel module (Link)
@cubeundcube: Disable RIC on Z2 phone (findricaddr/writekmem)
@zxz0O0: for creating the initial tool where I have based this unrooted install option on.
Thanks for your hard work guys! :highfive:
The 2.8.22 and later installer package uses rootkitXperia for various Xperia phones, it is able to gain root on all of the currently supported devices -if they are running the correct Lollipop version- allowing to install XZDR.
Thanks go to @cubeundcube and @zxz0O0 respectively for developing and making some changes to allow me to utilize it for XZDualRecovery installation. Thanks guys!
XZDualRecovery's (2.8.21 and older) Busybox dependency and compatible Busybox updaters
Busybox Updater/Installer: If you have XZDualRecovery installed, un-install any Busybox updating app/tool as most if not all of them will install a version of busybox which does not support the lzma compression applets XZDualRecovery depends on. The version installed together with XZDualRecovery is very stable and I have yet to hear anyone complain about it's stability.
@vaisakh7 found a busybox updater which seems to be compatible with XZDualRecovery: Busybox On Rails, which installs a version of busybox created by stericson, which leads me to believe his Busybox installer should also install a version which works together with XZDualRecovery.
Either case, be careful with updating busybox as there still is a possibility it will break your ability to enter recovery or even break full root, which means you might not be able to recover from the broken situation. Your best bet is the installer version, using that to break the lock on the system partition and reinstall the correct busybox.
XZDualRecovery 2.8.22 and newer do not suffer from this dependency, you can use whatever busybox updater app you like when you have 2.8.22 or newer installed.
I installed XPOSED on Lollipop and now I am experiencing a boot loop!
@ondrejvaroscak found a workaround to fix your bootloop issues: [WORKAROUND] Bootloops with Xposed in Lollipop
While using the installer I get the message "This device is unauthorized" and I can't install XZDualRecovery!
Authorizations... The latest versions of adb and android need this, it's nothing XZDR related. If you have USB debugging turned on, and your mobile disconnected from your PC, just make sure you 'revoke all authorizations for USB debugging' in the developer options menu. Then reboot your phone and before doing anything else, make sure you're looking at the home screen on your device, then hook up your USB cable. Your mobile should then ask if the connected PC is authorized or not. Once answered you can start the installer.

Will this also work with unlocked bootloaders, or is there anything similar for unlocked bootloaders?
Apologies if this is a silly question but I'm new to XZ and I'm still trying to get my head around the weird recovery situation

Yes, it should work with unlocked bootloaders when you are still clinging on to the stock kernel. DooMLoRD's DooMKernel v6 has the same functionality built in, so when using his kernel this package will not be needed.

Yes, I think (Why don't you just try it?), but it would only make sense when you still run the stock Sony kernel.
I would however make a backup of /system/bin/chargemon (and .stock) and alike (charger) before installing. This package overwrites them, its best to have a copy handy for when it doesn't want to work anymore, your way out of trouble

just tested on pacman rom, works a charm :thumbup: thanks again!

Installation seems ok, but I'm not able to get into CWM, but able to go into the TWRP.
Previously had CWM - tried flashing using the CWM and then tried to install using the installer as well.
Any idea what's wrong?

[DUAL RECOVERY] Version 1.2 released
Change log:
Version 1.2:
Because of size and reliability: changed from tar archive to lzma packed cpio, originally created by DooMLoRD
Updated scripting to handle lzma packed cpio archives.
Hopefully fixed CWM from not starting on some devices.
Download links in OP updated, updater zip updated.
All files are now available on http://www.fun-industries.nl/xda/
As I never received the logs, I can not say i'm sure CWM has really been fixed, please report either way!
Enjoy!

Updated OP structure, it's now in line with all the other device Q&A threads.

Bumping up the topic ... It's in fact the only one which has never been used by users to ask questions yet
It either means all Z owners know where to find the DevDB thread or just don't have any questions... either way: BUMP :cyclops:

I'll ask a question.
If I already installed an incompatible busybox by other means (stericson's installer), will the recovery installer overwrite it with the included compatible busybox?
I don't feel like having to recover from possible problems (if any) arising from an incompatible busybox today, so just asking.

The installer/flashable package will overwrite any incompatible busybox anyway at install/update, but the current version also keeps a safety copy somewhere else and will copy that to /system/xbin as soon as it finds an incompatible version.

You need to unpack the installer and open up a terminal. Change to the directory and then do 'sudo ./install.sh' to install.

Use PhilZ Touch, disable MD5 checking and try again. It's a bug which has been fixed but it breaks backups made with older versions. This incompatibility will not be fixed.

Maybe you should then insert the memory card in a pc, copy the contents and reformat it to then copy the contents back.
Sounds to me you might just have a faulty sdcard.
XZDR is designed to also use the cache partition if an sdcard is not found though, so it should be able to boot to recovery either way. You can try to insert the sdcard while in recovery to see if you can use it then.

[RECOVERY] TWRP 2.6.x (sources + installation app + downloads)

Almost a year back I released TWRP 2.4.x for all the Xperias available at that time. I wanted to do something similar, but for now it is only for the following devices
Code:
[COLOR=Blue]honami Xperia Z1
togari Xperia Z Ultra[/COLOR]
huashan Xperia SP
mint Xperia T
tsubasa Xperia V
dogo Xperia Z
yuga Xperia Z
odin Xperia ZL
pollux Xperia Tablet Z LTE
pollux_windy Xperia Tablet Z WiFi
UPDATES
Code:
Jan 31, 2014
* rebuilt the app on playstore from scratch
* app supports all funcitons like format, restore backup of FOTA
* app also has support for CWM flashing
* support for Xperia Z1 and Z Utra added
Dec 20, 2013
* rebuilt all recoveries
* added Xperia SP support
Nov 29, 2013
* rebuilt all recoveries with latest twrp2.6.x source
* added Xperia ZR (dogo) support
SOURCES
This time made a repo on github
https://github.com/TWRPXperia
All device configs, and also manifest file should be found here
KERNEL SOURCES (GPL COMPLIANCE)
The recovery.img includes a prebuilt kernel (the same prebuilt images that can be found inside each device tree on the github too. Although this kernel is never used, and is there just for the sake of being there, I would like to mention that :
Xperia T/V has been compiled from http://github.com/AOKP/kernel_sony_msm8x60
and
Xperia Z/ZL/TabZ has been compiles from http://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_sony_apq8064
with the sources as they were on Oct 25, 2013.
BUILD YOURSELF
To build yourself is pretty easy
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/TWRPXperia/android -b cm-10.2
repo sync
. build/env*sh
lunch cm_yuga-userdebug
mka recoveryimage
You will get out/target/product/yuga/recovery.img
DOWNLOADS
Download recovery.img for your device from here http://uploaded.net/f/rwneq9
INSTALLATION
The recovery.img needs to be flashed to the FOTAKernel partition to be used (all kernels that support extract_elf_ramdisk, in other words, almost all custom kernels will be able to use this recovery).
Push the file to sdcard
Code:
adb push recovery.img /sdcard/
Now flash it onto FOTAKernel partition
Code:
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
[SIZE=+1]TWRP XPERIA INSTALLER APP
[/SIZE][SIZE=+2]I have also released an app that does the complete procedure of downloading the latest TWRP image (I will build and periodically update), and flashing it on the FOTAKernel partiton.
The app also allows you to keep a backup of your FOTAKernel partition before flashing and restoring the backup in case of flashing a wrong recovery file or a corrupt file. link to app thread[/SIZE]
CREDITS
Team Win Recovery Project is completely the work of Team Win, (with @Dees_Troy and @bigbiff as some of the largest contributors).
Also the device side configs have been very well maintained by @Kali- and @FXP on the CM source trees which makes porting TWRP very easy.

i've tried manual adb command and also bought xperia twrp app.
none of the options worked to reboot/boot to recovery (after flashing aokp 4.4 rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47427429&postcount=47)
so, how to boot into the recovery then?

Installed dual recovery XSP-2.7.102-BETA

A suggestion.. How about setting camera button to enter CWM?

I'll have a look and add the SP to play's compatibility list... Sorry about that
The reason for not using the camera button is because of cross device compatibility.
Next major version will have a different solution to this though.

No green led indication while booting the phone only vibrates

It's ok. It's already installed by your recovery installer as a system app. Didn't see it earlier. Sorry!

All have been corrected.

Basic Recovery Functions don't work
@[NUT]
Hello!
Your dual recovery looks very promising that I reflashed my phone just to install it (yes, i got to remove the old recovery that way, because there are no removal instructions on the thread I used before). Upon successful installation, everything works, great!
After some minutes I thought of playing with PhilZ recovery. What is awesome is that, I now have an awesome recovery. While testing every possible functions, I tried the "Flash Zip". And I chose to flash from sdcard0. What is interesting here is that the recovery cannot mount sdcard0. I stand there weird, felt that the error is extremely unsuitable.
With sadness due, I decided to not use PhilZ. I rebooted and booted into TWRP. Awesome again, I can't use the touch screen at all. I can't do nothing. And this forced me to shut down my phone via the force shutdown button in the back.
Yes, maybe I can still use PhilZ, however moving every possible flash zips into sdcard1 is a pain!
If you want some logs, I have them in my Mega cloud.. Here's the link.
Any fix would be extremely appreciated from the real bottom of my nerdy brain and hearts! :victory:

@TechnoSparks
what version did you try?

@[NUT]
How stupid of me, forgot to mention the version! Sorry :/
I used the version 2.7.107 Beta.
For Xperia SP indeed.

I think I included a test-fix version this time, while it confirms my hunch it didn't fix it... (thank you for that) I do know how to fix it for sure, I'll inform you when 108 is online.

@TechnoSparks
I have a small thing to test for you, if you're game?
Use NDRUtils to reboot to CWM and see if that can actually mount sdcard0?

Yes I did what you asked and the mounting works while pooping rainbow! :victory:
I am quite a noob here tho, philz is CWM based, right? So this is probably an error from the Philz recovery, isn't it?
