hi, to install the rom I have to have root? and another is how they start the recovery mode because I can flash through an adb folder, or they could explain to me how I should flash the recovery.
I already have the bootboater unlocked and I have the latest stock version for this sony z2
You need to have fastboot drivers installed on your pc, and fastboot package from Google too, I'm not gonna go into how to have that setup.
Turn off your phone
Hold volume up and connect phone to pc with usb cable, your are now in fastboot mode
Open folder where you saved the recovery image file you download from the first page of this thread
Hold shift and right click in the folder (this is for Windows pc), select open command line here
In the cmd window type fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery img file>.img (a useful tip is type the first 2 letters of the file name then hit tab on keyboard, it will auto complete, if you have multiple files you can keep pressing tab to cycle between them) then hit enter
You'll get a message saying something about flashing file successful.
Unplug phone from pc
Hold the volume down and power until the phone starts, then release volume down
You should boot into recovery
@NeoArian can this room, and the patches in it, be used to build a different room, for example resurrection remix or aex?
I've never done ROM building before, and I'm hoping on using this extended lockdown to learn and maybe try to do it, I used to mod the stock ROM for my personal use with good results, but I'm not sure if I'm getting into something way beyond my level with this.
