[Root][E23xx][UB][6.0.1][26.3.A.0.131]ROOT and TWRP RECOVERY XPERIA M4

[PiSpecialist]

Tested only in Xperia M4 Aqua E2303, you need UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER,steps:

1. download this recovery (thanks to @dani020110 and your corresponding boot (rename it to boot.img):

FOR E2303.
FOR E2333
FOR E2306
FOR E2353
FOR E2312

2. copy them inside the adb folder and boot into fastboot mode, type in the shell:

fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot

3. let the phone booting ,shut down and boot again in fastboot mode then:

fastboot devices
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot

Now you have ROOT WITH LATEST SUPER SU 2.76 and custom Recovery.ENJOY
at you own risk .

That's great! How did you get it working? And also, is there any way of making it for locked bootloaders aswell?

for locked bootloader we can't flash the recovery via fastboot, must includes both recovery and root in the rom.

 

[jrazvan]

But is it possible (for locked bootloader) to update using a pre-rooted zip with the old recovery? Or flashtool is needed to update something at bootloader level?

Hmm... Looks like i cant get root access, SuperSU app is working and everything but other apps cant get root access.

of course they can flash prerooted stock rom with a working recovery.
