Hello everyone, hope you can help me :crying:
first of all, sorry for my english :silly:
few months ago i bought xperia z3 and when it was possible i made root, made backup of drm keys and with flashtool unlock and relock bootloader few times.... I have no problem.
last month i tried windows 10, and give me some problems, when i tried to go back to windows 8.1, i can´t, so i format my pc.
After reinstall all, i tried to unlock bootloader (with last version of flashtool. last time i can unlock , i used an outdated version) but i cant. Flashtools give me this error:

i tried with KK 2.93 , last version of Lollipop, with root, with no root, i tried with cmd too, but always same errors:
FAILED (remote: Command did not succeed)
or
Phone is already root
Service info shows me that i can unlock my bootloader, but i can't.
Flashtool give me only the option to unlock, so my phone is locked, i have recovery, and if i install a rom like CM or Glade, show me an error like: this rom is for c6603 and this devices is Leo. if i edit build_prop it shows me other error, but i cant flash any rom, so my z3 still lock.
if someone have any idea or know how to fix this....
thank you
What does it actually say in the service menu about your bootloader?
EDIT
Have you sorted out the file structure within flashtool to reflect the fact you are unlocking again?
The best bet will be to do it via fastboot without flashtool. Follow the instructions in the Sony website.
i try it via fastboot but i have an error:
FAILED <remote: Device is already rooted>
i try it with KK no rooted, KK rooted, and same with Lollipop.
About this:
Have you sorted out the file structure within flashtool to reflect the fact you are unlocking again?
I don't know how to do it, it's possible that could solve my problems...
Can you please tell me what it says about your bootloader in the service menu?
Read this to sort the folder structure out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51604352&postcount=22
it says:
Rooting status:
Bootloader unlock allowed: YES
Have you installed all your drivers in win8.1? Don't forget you need to boot in a special mode for unsigned drivers.
You can use http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/ as a Howto.
When you've booted in that mode just start flashtool and choose install drivers from the menu (or go to the flashtool folder and start driver.exe)

Hi
I tried install XPERIENCE™ Tipo Beta 2 ROM but I forgot one step (format system). After installation i rebooted phone but stuck at black screen of course. So I pulled out battery and go to CWM again and I did everything, format data, system, cache, dalvik cache, battery stats and tried install ROM again. But CWM can't read from internal memory so i decided to reboot phone and go to CWM again but now I can't go to CWM and phone stuck at SONY logo. So I tried flash firmware by flashtool but of course there were error.
Installation process starts normal but after few steps phone disconected itself and tried to boot.

Agree with you. A bit too less info, man .
So:
-Is your devices bootloader unlocked?
-Have you tried to use another computer/another USB-cable as kreatonn said?
-Have you used a proper stock .ftf ?
-Have you tried to charge your phones battery, and flash again?
Success!
Sent by magic!
If U have logo, then U able to enter Recovery? If yes, make full wipe (wipe data/actory reset, wipe chace, wipe dalvik chace).
If U cannot enter to Recovery, try to flash stock .ftf again, but when U selecting .ftf, make sure to check "No final verification" and "Reset customization" under Misc (lower right section). Steps here.

Like I said, I followed this tutorial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2333078) and they ask to flash the recovery.tft file at step6.
And the flash does not complete. It stays so and my phone freezes until I disconnect it that aborts the flash but I waited 30 minutes before I disconnect it.
And my phone is not broken after this fail. I reboot it and it simply starts again without problem...

so are you telling me, your phone boot & working normally ? then you don't need re-flash 2nd ftf file ( "JB31.ftf" ) or SUS.
then try again with tutorial. ( flash tool not properly working with windows 8 )
I'm on windows 7.
And yes, my phone works totally fine. BUT I do want to boot into CWM ^^ and that doesn't work. I'm doing again and again this tutorial : install.bat works great but then I need to flash this recovery.tft because the CWM is not definitive as I understood. So I turn off my phone and connect it with vol- pressed, flash begins then stops... Weird.
I can unlock my bootloader but I would not want to. If nothings works, I'll do it...
Actually I identify the problem: flashtool do not recognize the recovery.ftf ! I tried to flashed the kernel ICS...
How can I solve this problem? It seems that a lot of people having this issue to : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49167339&postcount=76 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49746942&postcount=81
And here the solution : I just had to remove the external sd card before flashing....
To any1 else having this problem, I would suggest unlocking bl cuz it opens up so much.

Have you ever unlocked your bootloader??
Connect your phone in flashmode to the pc without opening flashtool and wait for few seconds. The drivers will get installed
Then Try the whole procedure again.

thanks but what is the new in this twrp version?
Just search offical changlog, its too much to post them here, remember this version is from early 2018 while the old version is from mid 2017.
The main change from my side its build from lineage sources instead of omni and use oreo recovery source.
Sent from my athene using XDA Labs

aha.. many thanks..by the way iam ready to start testing omni rom rc2 after you make it for the dual sim
Oreo only!
Then ¿Is that version only for Oreo? I have 7.1.2 instaled... Could I use it? I did not understood something!
Thanks for your work.
No you can flash any rom you want, its just build from oreo sources to be up to date.
Tested by flashing lineage 14.1 and 15.1 and omnirom by kj.
Wow!
Thanks for your answer. I will try it as soon as i have a chance.
Regards.
At me at creation of a backup copy with enciphering - very often the progress of creation hangs.
And in the new version of TWRP, and older versions of TWRP.
If I do not use backup encryption, then there is no problem.
With encryption - hangs. And it's strange - with several attempts, all the same backup is obtained.
Overheat? Or sometimes some invalid encryption keys are generated? How else can you explain the instability of a backup?
Sometimes (rarely) from the first time successfully. And sometimes - only after 3-4 times successfully.
The size of the backup is about 5GB.
Thanks for reporting, i've never use encryption so did not know that.
Will see what i can do to fix it, as long you can use it without encryption.
Fantastic work
Thank you so much, this took me forever to achieve, Im not a developer, Followed all your steps below for My Sony M2 D2303 Xperia 5.1.1
I rooted it first using the eagle root tool.
I had real issues getting cmd to register twrp img, so I used another version i found online, TWRP 3.1.0-0 and after typing in the final command; fastboot flash recovery, I then just drag and dropped the image in to the cmd line and Boom!! powered off phone, then held together ( power + vol down) until TWRP boot logo appears, ran a back up and it worked a treat.
Thank you, for all your amazing work

Hi @sgspluss,
First of all, thank you for the TWRP recovery. I was able to successfully install it on my Xperia M2 Dual. I hope you will find time to update TWRP to latest version.
Second, I have a quick question, I was wondering why you guys are not using the FOTAKernel partition for the recovery? Is there any particular reason for it? Kindly let me know.
Thanks and regards,
Stryder

Well considering the current user base of M2, it seems highly unlikely! But in future I might change my mind!
boot revovery
i can't boot to recovery option on power menu
because my volume button destroyed
I tried to flash but no success:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-0-eagle.img
target didn't report max-download-size
sending 'recovery' (16278 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.522s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.525s
What's the problem? Multi recovery is already on the phone (PhilZ and TWRP 2.x) but neither can flash img, only zip.
