Krabappel2548 and DooMLoRD are proud to presents:
This is DooMLoRD's recovery, just added scripts to make it work on locked bootloader, all credits for recovery should go to him!

CWM recovery for locked bootloaders!

WORKING:
- I think All functions should be working, haven't tested all of them though.

NOT WORKING:
Phone hangs when cleaning cache?
Just leave it for a few minutes, it's needs some time to clean cache ;)
- Let me know

HOW TO ENTER RECOVERY:
- Press volume up or down when green LED is on while booting

REQUIREMENTS:
- Locked bootloader
- Root
- Windows pc with adb drivers

INSTALLATION:
- Download the package and extract it to your pc.
- Run the script to install the recovery
- Enjoy it!

Error with creating file for faster backup?
This isn't a problem, it always gives an error if the file already exists, so it means you have the file already :)
Please don't mirror my download links or steal my work!

DOWNLOAD:
CWM 6.0.2.8 for locked bootloader v1

CREDITS:
- My dear friend DooMLoRD for tips and recovery files :)
- cpasjuste for his great and usefull help

@krabappel2548 - i m getting a problem... whenever I run the script the first reboot brings up cwm... but all the next reboots after pressing the volume key doesn't get the CWM to open... it continues into a normal boot... Could yo PLEASE look into it
Also, during the first reboot the led changes colours green then light blue and on pressing volume you enter CWM... but all the next reboots brings only green led (i don't know if it is important)!!

Secondly, if I again run the script it happens again, only first try CWM works after that one time it does not work... HELP :(

EDIT - Even apps like Quick Boot can''t get to boot in Recovery!!! :( :X

One more thing, I was comparing Xperia Z and ZL locked recovery and they are completely the same (Although there is a spelling mistake of "system" in recovery.tar of Xperia Z)... So does it mean that we can to some extent use Xperia Z's MOD's??

BTW, I am still not able to boot into recovery by pressing any of the volume keys no matter how many time I reboot!!! :( HELP Plzzz

Yeah man... Because if I try changing system files and get stuck in reboot, I have to flash everything from scratch to get it working again... You can't only use x-parts to go into cwm... the volume key should also work... Thanks :)
