Does anyone know how to backup stock recovery without rooting on the XT1032?

Hello
If you have Root you can use Flashify from the PlayStore

First of all clear the misconception, if you root your phone it does not mean you should have a custom recovery and vice versa
Now if you want to backup your stock recovery either root your phone and use flashify
Or
Downlaod the stock firmware package of your device and it has raw fromat of recovery image
Or

Root Moto G google play edition on Android 5.0.1 Lollipop

First u to download the Philz touch recovery for GPE device, then you have to flash it using ADB and don't forget to backup your stock recovery.
Then download the SuperSU.zip v2.37 by chainfire as it supports root for all Lollipop devices, then flash it using the custom recovery you downloaded and flashed to your mobile and it successfully flashed and your device will get rooted....
Happy flashing and rooted the lollipop device......
Here is the recovery download link

There are many threads have info on how to root.. why did you started the thread in development section.. did you developed anything? Reported to mods for moving this thread to General section...
It is especially for people who are suffering to root on moto g gpe device after lollipop update.
So i think it will be helpful to them.

The supersu installed the app to the system but didnt give the root privileges properly.

It gives the full root to the device but the thing is that , some root apps are not fully supporting in lollipop devices and think they will give full support in future updates....

Restore backup via recovery from sd card?

Hi!
I would like to know if it is possible to restore the 4.4.4 kit kat backup on a 5.1. lollipop system. So basically i would like to update to 5.1 but then I may want to revert back to 4.4.4 with the back up of recovery's 4.4.4 (which is stored on a memory card) Is it possible? Is there a root out for 5.1 yet? please help me if you can.
EDIT:
Here is the solution how to root and install recovery on .368 firmware:
http://techbeasts.com/2015/09/18/ro...ria-z1-compact-android-511-146a0368-firmware/
This is how you create your own FTF firmware with XperiFirm and FlashTool:
http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/08/1...re-files-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool-guide/
This is how you make a pre rooted, flashable zip:

I hope everything is clear now. I followed the steps above and it is working fine.

you can update to 5.1 but use a prerooted firmware with recovery included,don t flash official cause you will not be able to root it and install recovery.
i reverted between kit kat and lollipop many times myself,no prob.
as long as you have a recovery installed i don t thing you will have a problem.
of course make a back up,in case you want back.
now i noticed you post in the wrong section,should be moved in questions and answers

that´s wrong - you can root LP FW with that TOOL from our genius dev @munjeni.
You only had to unlock the bootloader.
Do I need a custom recovery for flashing the new 5.1.1 firmware? I mean do I need the specific XZ Dual Recovery or can I use the recovery which was installed automatically after rooting?

you say that you made a backup of 4.4.4,right?
you entered recovery so you did it either with TWRP or CWM.TWRP and CWM are both recoveries.
you can flash pre rooted firmware and restore backups with both of them,i just prefer better and suggest TWRP.
remember that if you want to restore your back up you need to do it with the same recovery you made it,i think that TWRP cant restore backups made with CWM and vice-versa.
anyway,you can easily find what backup you have if you find the folders named TWRP and CLOCKWORK or CWM in your external or internal storage,back up files is about 4gb size.
how to install now:
1.reboot your phone and when your led light blink press volume down key to enter TWRP recovery.if it gets you in CWM reboot again and when led blink press volume up,so you enter TWRP recovery.
2.now you are in TWRP you press WIPE on the top right box.then drug the slider at the bottom SWIPE TO FACTORY RESET
3.press back button annd shoose install
4.find your prerooted zip,on the top centre under SELECT ZIP TO INSTALL,is STORAGE internal or external sd card
5.install zip:good:
PS:make a fresh backup before you start
Thank you so much. Finally someone explained it normally.
Can someone give me a link where I can find pre rooted 5.1 Rom as a zip file for my Z1 compact? It would also be important to be central europe, unbranded or telekom. Thank you in advance!
You can do one yourself.
I don't have URLs till hands but those are easy to find on forum.
