Hey guys, yesterday I rooted my phone using KingRoot and XZRecovery to flash Super SU and now I want to flash back the stock recovery again because I want install future system updates without problems.
How can I flash it again? (I have my bootloader locked)

There is no accessible stock recovery on Xperia phones, the actual recovery partition will still be there. Dual recovery is installed on the system partition.
If your bootloader is locked you will be able to OTA, but you will lose root. The best thing to do is flash a pre-rooted flashable zip in the dual recovery you have. As soon as there is an update you can make a new pre-rooted flashable zip using PRFCreator.
Hello Guys,
Need your help. Please help me out here.
My wife has a Sony xperia L which is still running Android 4.1.2 version. Now I rooted it with Root kit and tried flashing various Lollipop Roms like Cm12,primexperia and resurrection. But wifi does not work on all these Roms
I have tried almost every solution available on Xda.
I have used multiple custom recovery, N number of kernals and have flashed Boot.img and Thunderzap 4.16 from recovery after flashing the Roms. Still not luck.
Steps followed for flashing the Rom
1.Rooted with Rootkit and updated Supersu binary
2.Installed Busy box with Flashtool
3.Flashed a kernal (Tried TZ 4.14,4.7,4.8 Extended stock kernal and some more)
4. Booted to recovery ( Tried Cwm, TWRP, Philz)
5. Wipe data and all for clean installation
6. Flashed Rom zip (Cm12, Omni 4.4, Primexperia, Resurrection)
7. Flashed Gapps (As per the Rom)
8. Flashed Supersu zip to regain root access
9. Reboot to boot into new Rom
10. Wifi is not working so flashed boot.img from Rom via flashtool
11. Flash TZ 4.16 in recovery for cm12 ROMS.
Still wifi not working not sure what is the issue. It's working fine in Stock Rom.
Now I am upgrading to 4.2.2 via Sony update software.
Masters please help me out here. I can think of 2 solutions now.
1. First update to latest Sony official update (4.2.2) and then try again.
2. If there is any firmware file for stable lollipop version (with system.img, data.img and boot.img) which can be flashed using flashtool.

number 1. is correct the 4.1.2 software uses a really old modem that isnt compatible with LP based roms... The LATEST stockrom (...1.17 4.2.2) has the correct modem to make the wifi work

hei there, i just bought a new mi4c. and it has been a week.
So i want to share my step on installing custom rom right away from stock.
the step is :
1. Install kingiroot
2. Root your phone using kingiroot
3. Install flashify from playstore
4. grant root for flashify and flash twrp custom recovery to mi4c
5. install reboot recovery from playstore and use the app to enter recovery mode
6. Flash custom recovery from your desired ROM. (in my case, i install custom recovery from xiaomi.eu
7. Install your ROM through the custom recovery
Done.
I've already installed Custom Rom 8.2.1.0 miui.eu Everything work well excepet edge tap (edge control).
do i miss something on my flashing step?
or do i need some later ROM as baseband before installing my desired custom ROM?
For anyone following this, if you want to flash a not miui based custom rom you have to unlock the bootloader with the official tool, otherwise you will brick the device.
If you brick the device flash the oldest firmware you can find(I already had this problem before).
I used Kingo to root my Mi4c and it worked well.
Does not work anymore if you run with Android 7.0
Note: my AV detected Kingo Link as trojan...
Hi
Im trying to install a custom recovery but it seems like i just cant
My bootloader is unlocked and is currently using Cyanogenmod's Recovery
I installed a multirecovery in my locked bootloader on stock frimware and formatted /system and /data. Installed CM 13 and Gapps
and unlocked my bootloader again so that i can use the custom rom.
Any help on installing a custom recovery ???
Never mind people I just installed twrp app and flashed it from there
Letv le 1s: In recovery mode it is showing only for 2 options (without twrp) 1.update system 2.clear data
If I download resurrection remix ROM and install it via 1.update system directly what will happen ??
My mobile USB data sync is not working, so am not able to install it in twrp and not able to root it.
How can I install resurrection remix is in my mobile ..... Please help
Thanks in advance...
