I'm trying this right now. Everything seems to work correctly except for booting into recovery. Whenever I try to boot into recovery after flashing this rom I end up with a black screen. It doesn't matter if I try to enter recover at boot using the volume keys or if I try to do it from to reboot menu when shutting the phone down.

I'm going to have to flash another kernel to get the recovery back.

Just extract the one from Carbon and flash with fastboot or flashtool. Sorry about that

I'm starting I think the problem is in my end. I flashed the carbon kernel and I still cant get into recovery.

Oddly enough, I seem to have no problem getting into recovery using doomlords advanced stock kernel.

How do I get into recovery using your kernels @blueether?

Also, is there any way to disable dt2w? It seems to have a pretty good battery drain.

You should get into recovery just like doomlord's, press vol up when the LED comes on just after boot starts.

I'm sorry that I cant test these builds out at the moment

You are the first to complain about battery drain with dt2w. It should't have a wake lock and will allow the phone to go into deepsleep, but to disable do this from a terminal:
Disable DT2W:
In terminal write: su -c "echo 0 > /sys/android_dt2w/dt2w_active"

After reboot DT2W will be activated again. If you want to make it disabled by default add the above init.d script!

Hmmmm, I can't seem to get dt2w disabled. The directory /sys/android_dt2w doesn't seem to exist.. The mkdir command in the sys directory doesn't seem to work either.

Also, I installed doomlords kernel with dual recovery again just to make sure, and recovery works just fine in that kernel with the volume keys. @blueether are there any logs I can grab to help debug the issue? If it helps, the screen seems to get stuck in the sony logo with the led showing green whenever I attempt to boot recovery from your kernel

I remember now... I removed some of the code as the original writer packed a sad and threw their toys out of the pram (I still think that if they use GPL code the have to live by the GPL).

If you think that dt2w is causing battery drain then all I can suggest is to flash the boot.img from the latest ZU gpe CM11 builds. If I did a kernel without dt2w it would just be the same as the CM one.

Ok... I flashed cm stock kernel and recovery doesn't work there either. I'm thinking that the issue is that I flashed TWRP into the FOTAKernel partition. Is TWRP for xperia z ultra compatible with the gpe edition of the device?

On your latest build successful I flashing pimped via flashtool but still can't boot into recovery. When first book image comes up and first led flashes I press volume up and stays on logo. But I am able to boot back into ROM no issues
