ROM downloaded with XperiFirm and pre-rooted with PRFCreator.

Firmware version: 14.6.A.1.236
CDA (customization version): 1280-7864 (Customized CE1)
It contains SuperSU 2.46 andXZDualRecovery 2.8.23 (it will overwrite your current recovery).

You need to be on any rooted ROM already with TWRP custom recovery to flash a .zip file with this firmware!
You don't loose any data (but make your backup before upgrading), you keep root, you update your firmware to the newest Lolipop 5.1.1 build .1.236
IMPORTANT: Flash the ROM with TWRP, not Phillz Touch Recovery.
It can be flashed on locked bootloader.

Download link: Mega


Notes:
Do a factory reset if you're experiencing any strange problems.

EDIT: maybe my bad, I'm trying to download again

Did you flash with Philz Touch Recovery? Then this was the culprit.
I did this two times and lost root and recovery as you :(
The recommended recovery to use is TRWP.
yep, I used TWRP.. fortunately I've got a backup..
EDIT: I'm stupid idiot, Phillz Touch, that's what I used... TWRP works fine already, thanks!

There is such info on XZDR page:

When installing custom STOCK BASED ROMs:
Be sure to flash XZ/ZL/TabZ/Z1/ZU-lockeddualrecovery[VERSION]-BETA.flashable.zip from http://nut.xperia-files.com after installing the ROM and before you reboot, this way you will not lose recovery!


Maybe this step is needed now (it wasn't before). So after flashing ROM zip, flash XZDualRecovery zip and SuperSU zip.
If someone confirms this, please let me know.

    I'm not sure about TA, sorry. My bet would be it does not overwrite TA.
