For the love of God, I can't get into Recovery.. All hell broke loose since I updated to 4.4.4 and I would love to upgrade to Lollipop..
Things are so much easier on Nexus devices and my OnePlusOne

I was able to install 5.0.2 using flashtool, but because I can't get into recovery, I can't flash this prerooted zip file.
I'm a bit of a noob in regards to Sony devices, but is it possible to flash this file using flashtool..?

Simple answer....no
The recoveries were really only working properly on 4.4.4, and that was only if you unlocked your bootloader and flashed a dual recovery+boot.img. For some reason, flashing a recovery to the normal "recovery" partition, even though successfully flashed, wouldn't allow access to it. Only the "FotaKernel" flashing (dual recovery) was working somewhat.
Theoretically, under 4.4.4, you could get to recovery by using "fastboot boot recovery.img", but it was ify-ify if the recovery would show on the display. I had to do it numerous times.
Once you've upgraded to 5.0.2, the only option is
a. Wait for a dev to make a compatible recovery (probably fotakernel type, or one that can be booted using "fastboot boot recovery.img"
b. Wait for somebody to create a modified boot.img which will allow adb push (to push superSu using up to date binary). I can do this, but right now am busy at work, and won't get around to doing it until sometime this weekend.
Either way, I suspect it's going to require an unlocked bootloader. But I wouldn't reccommend that until you learn the disadvantages and back up your DRM keys.
You could probably roll back a couple versions to an earlier OS (ftf flashing) and try with what recoveries we have now.
I'm still on 4.4.4 (unlocked bootloader and backed up DRM keys, not that you really need them for most folks), so will be working on it this weekend.

Thank you for the elaborated answer! I have unlocked my bootloader, and was rooted on 4.4.2 but was unsuccessful in rooting 4.4.4.
I will wait until a modified recovery is released and hopefully be able to root then. Thanks again for the explanation.

installing and testing.

Sorry
I am noob
Can I know how to recover?
need to use another program?
Can i have the program name?
thanks a lot
Can I know how to install ?

Sony doesnt provide change logs, you just need to wait experiences

The biggest change should be the november security patch. I wouldn't expect much more improvements til nougat is out.

security patch is reason enough for me

It contains the security patch for November. Just a minor update.

I'm coming from stock 305 with xposed and Xpower kernel.
I flashed the 5.11 firmware via flashtool (without ticking any wipe from ftf), just after I flashed your kernel and reboot (optimisation) than I rebooted to TWRP, I flashed SR5-SuperSU-v2.78 + xposed-v87-sdk23-arm64 et voilà
All is working like a charm and I have lost nothing from 305 :good:

Same here. Used:
xperifirm downloader
created ftf with flashtool
loaded ftf with flashtool
loaded androplus (41) with fastboot
and supersu with twrp.

Did the same as ric69. worked! nothing lost from 305.

Can the NFC icon in the status bar be cleared in this newest version? From what I've seen, they taken out that option from .305..

All OK here, NFC was off before the upgrade and isn't there in the status bar after. Have you tried adding the setting to the status drop down bar options and turning it off there? NFC for me is still in the wireless and networks setting under the more option.

Yes of course it is compatible !!
this firmware is particularly for your Z5 model E6683, and which version of Android you are currently running has nothing to do with FTF flashing.
DSDS stands for dual sim dual standby , its a variant marker used by Sony.
Just download the flashtool (google it) and flash the FTF first then the kernel .
before that keep backup of your staffs .

If you flash this, it will erase whatever rom you currently have installed. The TWRP package contains the whole rom.
Are you asking if the OTA is compatible with it? I doubt it. I had a stock-ish setup that only had updated emojis, and the update failed on it.

I think you don't have to but it is recommended because it is safer than dirty flashing it. It could also lead to compatibility issues like magisk not passing safetynet because of the new security update.
(edit) Just looked at a forum post and it says that if you are flashing custom roms and/or switching from a custom to an official, you need to, but if it's just an update of the same rom (in this case, stock) it is safe to dirty flash it.

One last thing
one last thing but does not make me select the ftf file for flash because?

So, any of you smart guys found a way to root this? Nougat root = minor case of 'this phone will not boot at all'.

I am familiar with the flash tool and have used a lot back in 2016
also followed below still getting the error.
Now go into C:\Users\xxxxxxx\.flashTool\devices\G31XX and rename it from from 40.0.fsc to 48.1.fsc (thanks @boyrock - I would NOT have thought of that). ATTENTION: While the FTF is 'prepared' aka unpacked, this file might be renamed back to 40.0.fsc. If it does that, just name it back while the preparation is still running in Flashtool.

My device is G3116, and i using G3112 ROM, without issues.

Just got an update anyway.
Oreo for G3116 is now available on OTA and XperiFirm.
While cross-flashing is relatively safe ,there is a slight chance that some devices may have different partition setups.
