[LB/UB]Lollipop 5.0.2 -10.6.A.0.454 Pre-rooted +XPOSED+ DualRecovery(IN Firmware)

[Siddhesh Sapre]

Hi there everyone! After the arrival of Official Lollipop for XPERIA Z (which arrived quite late), the major issue was with the firmware is its rooting problem and installing Dual Recovery on Locked Bootloader which gives a bootloop. I have created this using PRFCreator

NOTE: I am not responsible for any damage caused to your device upon flashing this on your device. Please follow the instructions carefully and as it is. This is well tested only on my OWN XPERIA Z C6602, and therefore, goes well with all other C6602 & C6603 devices. Please test and report issues if any.
What exactly will you get when you flash this zip?
1. Rooted STOCK XPERIA Z Lollipop 5.0.2 10.6.A.0.454 firmware (with SuperSU)
2. Pre-pushed 'xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip'
3. Pre-installed DUALrecovery (v. 2.8.16)
NOTE: This is not a DEODEXED rom. It is as it is STOCK firmware with ROOT, DUAL-RECOVERY and xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430


STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Install Official (STOCK) Kitkat firmware .283 OR .292. Root it( using THIS ) and Install latest NUT's Dual Recovery (from HERE)
2. Place the downloaded ZIP in your SD card (external SD card)
3. Reboot into recovery and Wipe/Format DATA, CACHE, DALVIK/ART CACHE and Factory reset.
4. Install the downloaded zip from SD card and Reboot!
5. The first boot takes quite a lot of time (around 15 min).
7. Install Xposed Installer for Lollipop ( from HERE )and Xperia Xposed for Lollipop (from HERE ) , give appropriate root permissions, ENJOY!
NOTE: While installing the Xposed Installer for Lollipop, now you don't need recovery because the 'xposed-sdk21-arm-*.zip' has already been pushed for you in the flashable zip. So just install the 'XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha*.apk(or any available latest version)' and Enjoy!
You can also install the latest Dual Recovery v2.8.17 (I haven't tested it, 2.8.16 works pretty well)
After finishing all the above steps, reboot once and then proceed with any module you want to install!
I will update the screenshots when i get time!

If you are on UB with CM and want to flash this, you can. But please do a total wipe as I have mentioned and then flash the zip!
And with regards to the DRM restore, if you have your DRM keys , then u better install the zip on locked bootloader. If you do not have the DRM keys, then follow THIS.
If you are thinking to install this zip, I will suggest you go for locked BL if you have the DRM keys!!!
