It is. It looks like after installing the recovery the device identify itself as yuga, causing the problem. I don't know if I have to flash another boot or recovery or kernel to fix this.
then i suggest you to flash the ZL recovery
Do you know if it will harm the stock rom? The recovery I installed was downloaded from ZL's forum.
Not sure. If this was the "Dual recovery" installation, go download the zl version and re-flash...
Ya its ported from Xperia z why don't you install xz dual recovery. I had no problem in flashing. Which rom are you trying to flash
I'm trying to flash Paranoid Android. I'll search for xz dual recovery and post here if it works.
Bro. You don't need any recovery. Just flash boot.img from the zip using fastboot. You'll have a recovery installed
fastboot will only work for unlocked bootloader
However rom won't work unless you flash cm based kernel so you need to unlock boot loader anyways
Bro you need to flash its kernel in order to use that rom. Flash the kernel, go to recovery wipe everything flash rom, flash gapps, reboot system
Thanks for answering. My bootloader is unlocked. Do you know where can I download this kernel?
Download pa rom zip. You can find it inside the zip. Just extract a file called boot.img. And flash using fastboot command
It worked! Thank you so much... now I understand that to install a rom, first I need to flash a specific boot to that rom.
Not always. If you are using stock based rom you just need stock kernel. However to use cm based roms you'll need this respective kernel.
