It will have the recoveries inside the kernel partition instead of in the ROM. The NDRUtils app can however still control it.
That actually depends on your ROM, does it come with a custom kernel?
Which device and what ROM are you using?

using Xperia V JB 4.3..... ROM; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2662848
there is a boot.img in tha flashable zip buh seems tha recovery comes with tha ROM i think...
red LED burn?
Guys, I can't find any information here but the first thing that happens after switching on the phone is that the LED burns red, then turns green after the quick two vibrations. I can access TWRP without issues. What does the red LED burn actually mean?

That means, by pressing vol up you and waiting until it gets yellow, you can enter the recovery that comes with your custom ROM.
Btw, does XZDR work with PAC ROM? I am asking because it is a merge from multiple ROMs, one of them is CM, where XZDR does not work.
How the probability on this works for Xperia L 4.2.2, beacuse I'm using a kernel with CWM, and I want TWRP, because it's more friendly user, you know...
But I'm not on a custom ROM - I'm on the stock .757. The LED lights up red even before the Sony logo.

Okay. I never worked with stock ROM. The moment I got my Z1 I rooted and customed it. Battery empty? No matter if it is booting normally.

Red LED means recovery is being loaded into RAM. When done, green LED comes on for volume up to enter Philz, or volume down to enter TWRP.

Temporary fix is to disable md5 check in phillZ setting.
Also am getting error related to brightness when entering Philz recovery and unable to change brightness.
"E: Unable to create brightness sys file!"

I'm confused
I had an Xperia V and i need a guide which one should i use. I tried the XZ one (Because that is what the guide in our forum says) and got a big resolution and does not fit on my Screen. Tried the XT one and can't install a ROM. i get an Error status 7.

XT version works for V. But the installer zip file is not flashable. You need to extract it in PC and run the install.bat. Or you can download the flashable zip file and flash in recovery.

Last Updated 2016-02-22250Hello guys,
I noticed there are some problems getting dualrecovery to work on Lollipop. I created a small hack to bypass the SELinux enforcement (wonder why no one else created it already). Anyway I attached a little bat file to fix dualrecovery again (tested on Z3C).
Source will be released in the next days and probably also integrated in the official dualrecovery.
Happy eastern.

I installed XPOSED on Lollipop and now I am experiencing a boot loop!
While using the installer I get the message "This device is unauthorized" and I can't install XZDualRecovery!
123122A small update on progress:
The issues with XZDR are mainly caused by Sony actually properly setting up SELinux support for the very first time on the LP ROM's, something they neglected in all of the KK releases. This makes the LP version a lot more secure, which is a good thing. The problem is that I now know what to fix, but am still looking in to how to fix it. :angel:
For the techies among us:
During INIT the hijack still works, but the script is not able to change anything on the rootfs, it allows you to create a folder and if you mount a tmpfs on it you can write stuff to it, but if you try to write anything to the folder as it is (without tmpfs) it will not allow you to do so. This is because the SELinux context of my scripts is not set correctly, so the kernel blocks just about everything I try to do. I'm busy configuring and compiling a new busybox to include in XZDR with better SELinux support, as the one I am currently using is lacking the extended SELinux support I will need to fix this.
The other problem is that init is less easy to override with the init from the recoveries, it simply continues the LP boot, I am in the progress of including 2nd-init support ( created by SkrilaxCZ ) and will be integrating parts and ideas of the safestrap project by Hashcode to fix these issues.
The last but not least problem is that I can still mount the SDCard, but I am unable to write to it, most likely also due to the SELinux restrictions. If you remove the SDCard from the device it will use /cache which seems to be set up with less strict permissions and it will be able to do just about everything, except boot the actual recoveries.
Last night I worked from 23:00PM all the night up to 6:30AM, pulling an almost an all-nighter. I'm not giving up just yet
My thanks go to @Hashcode for a late night chat (for me that is, he was at work as he is located on the other side of the globe!) which helped me find the most likely cause.
