Hello Experts,

I had rooted 4.2.1 with XZdual recovery from NUTs after updating to his latest 4.3 update, I am not able to boot into recovery, the phone got updated with 4.3 and working fine, It is just that I am able to see all 3 recoveries in NDRUtils, but not able to boot in any of the recoveries.

Please help.

Thanks,
K

I tried that couple of times, but still not able to enter recovery

Also one thing I noticed, when I check thru app for root access, it says I have root access, but when I try to delete file in /system/bin, it says operation failed.

just download the ES File Explorer,and change the r/o to r/w at system folder,see it works or not

Use app called xzrecovery that u can boot to recovery form the app only
Hope that helped

Hi thanks if helped:D

I was using xzrecovery only, as I have flashed NUTs 4.3 it included xzrecovery, but it is not working & hence this question thread, as I could not post on the dev thread.

It looks to me an issue with the recovery.

Happy to try out anything if you suggest.

Thanks again for your reply.

Did you install busybox? If you did and you used a busybox installer from the Play store, it probably broke the recovery, as most of them do not install a tool that's essential for the operation of the dual recovery.

Thanks Kingvortex for your reply... No I did not install from play store, I am using the same busybox as included in the xzrecovery installer.

Thanks to NUTs he found the issue, he feels the xzdr.prop file is not read properly by the problem, after deleting that file, now I am able to boot into recovery.

Thanks again.

Use the same app to remove the recovery and install it the same app:D (this app have TWRP recovery not CWM)
Hope that helped you
