[UB][RECOVERY] TWRP v3.2.2 for Xperia Z

[Scurzmann]

I've got twrp 3.2.3. What's the right command to flash it? Is it "fastboot flash boot twrp.img", or "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"?

Neither, the fota installation described here by cyberwalkman and on twrp.me is still the way to install.

How did you do it? In my case I couldn't because if I try to install a TWRP version newer than 3.0.2.0, the recovery doesn't boot and enters into a bootloop


I come from Official 4.4, but it's unlocked

Please follow the Instructions of the twrp installation for exactly this device and use the newest version.

I don't know where you got the instruction, but this mixes the right and wrong steps together. :silly:
Please look at twrp.me

I followed this steps from LineageOs website for Yuga
Here is the link: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/yuga/install
as there is no method for non-rooted device on twrp.me.

Weird.
Something must be wrong with your PC drivers.
It works here.

Could you please provide me the detailed steps how do you flashed it on stock LP.
I guess the drivers are correctly installed in my PC as there was no error (except: root this bundle is not valid) occured while flashing stock kk or lp ftf from flashtool 0.9.18.6., the phone booted normally with no issue.
Using platform-tools_r28.0.2-windows.zip, extracted it on C:\adb .

First i flashed the stock 5.1.1 and Booted it once
Then I followed exactly the twrp.me instructions, then I booted into twrp, installed lineageOS and installed twrp again.

I use linux Ubuntu 18.04 / Linux mint 19.1
My adb and fastboot drivers are integrated into the kernel
I just downloaded the google platform tools r28.0.1 (now 28.0.3)
I did nothing special, but under windows 10 I got driver problems.
It is difficult to install the drivers there

I dont want to flash custom rom after flashing twrp although I done it previously & the phone booted normally in android system
Issue persist when you flash twrp, then reboot into system from twrp options without flashing any custom rom or any kind of tweaks.
I want to flash "SONY DRM FUNCTION RESTORATION" through twrp on stock LP Link: https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/foru...ria-z1-z2-z3-series-devices-drm-t2930672/amp/
as I didn't backup ta partition before unlocking bootloader.
You can easily install sony drivers from driver folder in flashtool in Windows 10 by temporarly disabling signed driver enforcement in Windows 10

Thank you

Yeah, but you see that I did nothing special, I just followed the instructions.
In my opinion the initial root access in the stock firmware was the hardest part to execute "dd" in the terminal to install TWRP.
