I m new to the recovery thing, I installed recovery on my phone for the first time, on Kitkat I didn't have recovery. AFAIK For the first time u have to install the recovery through PC i guess, for further updates NUTS give two option eitheR through PC or though the already installed Recovery!!

Thank you edwuard for a wonderful and easy guide.

What's the safest way to install a custom recovery on Lollipop 5.0.2? I want to try custom roms without actually unlocking the bootloader.

Many thanks

Doesn't work on xperia z C6603 5.1.1 ...anyone?

I just used your method to replace Kinguser on Xperia C6603 5.1.1 and it worked. Thanks very much.

could you explain what you did?
was your phone already rooted?
was it unlocked?

 

[datauk]

Hi stukka2006,
My C6603 was already running the image from Ben Ling from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/general/rom-pre-rooted-supersu-xposed-framework-t3195782
and therefore was rooted and dualrecovery 2.8.21. It also has a locked bootloader (LB).

 

[allengorden]

Finally got it!

Hmm , tried for hours. Finally found out what was wrong with the post.

1. type in small caps.
2. Just type "su" then enter. Then type "allow root". Not "Allow root permission"
3. The post failed to mention- unzip the contents on your PC first then move them to the root folder of your phone.
4. Just ignore the "replacing" comment. There's no replacing going on.

Yeah, so with these 4 things in mind, you're all set to go.

does this method work for 311 after the 5.1 update ?

 

[shoey63]

5.1.1 is not directly rootable at this stage. 5.0.2 is though, and kingroot is no longer needed. Check here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=63019587

There is no root of 5.1
