PhilZ Touch is a CWM Advanced Edition that adds all the features you could ever miss in CWM
It is a well proven recovery for many phones

It also adds a full touch interface a completely configurable GUI


Please give your feedback, what works, and any bug you could encounter
Read the features, and check if you are missing something

Also, do not forget to read about the powerful aroma file manager integration and double tap shortcut


Huge thanks to @Phil3759 for this excellent work! and for posting it for the Xperia Z1 (honami)... this version is a DIRECT port from the Z1 !


To enter recovery keep tapping the VOLUME UP key when you see the Sony bootlogo!

Ok, in your kernel thread it states it has Philz Touch, but ivr never been able to get it load other than straight after flashing it. Is there an issue somewhere, even if i use your reboot app, it reboots either into twrp or cwm, which i can use, so not a huge issue, would just prefer to use Philz. Thanks.

Does this work well with the 402 update, Philz recovery was always my favourite recovery on SGS3, not seen many posts in here recently so looking for opinions.

Plan is to get unlock code from Sony, use FlashTool to unlock the bootloader, use Flashtool to flash the boot img from the first post in this thread & then flash superSU, is that the bets way to go about it?

Yes, it's dedicated for the .402 update :)


Your plan is valid, although keep in mind that Doomkernel has also Philz integrated.

Cheers for the reply mate. Is there a way to flash Philz with just the stock kernel or does it have to DoomLord's advanced kernel?

Hi OP,

I am using Build version: 6.29.8 - Xperia Z1 on Xperia X2 D6503.
(maybe slightly older than the latest one?)

I just tried to "Custom backup" my /sdcard partition for file recovery purpose.
However, the "Backup size" was 0.

So i wonder if the backup "sd-ext" function is still working on the PhilZ version.

Thanks in advance.

Great work guys !

Will this work with CM11, i currently have the latest CM11 NIGHTLY installed along with CWM recovery 6.0.5.0.

EDIT:
Also, i installed the latest firmware .314 before going to CM11, will flashing this change my kernel to anything other than what i have now ?

Thanks !
