Rooted c6902 using towelroot v1, installed nuts xz1dualrecovery n supersu 2.00...now - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After rooting n flashing xz1dualrecovery with the help of pc and then flashing super su 2.00 i am facing strange problems! After a day my phone is not booting in recovery, no vibration or yellow lights during restart! Then after yesterday i saw that its not switching off when i hold power button and then click 'power off' only reboot to safe mode and holding power n volume up is working. I had uninstalled google play services, google plus n all except google search, google sttings, maps nplay store. I uninstalled youtube and notes too. N Yes i had backed up entire partion via xz1dualrecovery, but after that due to insufficient space i manually delete the backup file from sdcard/clockworkmod/
What do i do now?
And also tell me please that whether i update 4.4.4 via ota when it come(my phone is rooted, bl locked) ? Thanks in advance...
N last of all kindly suggest me what apps do i install now to improve my phone(i had installed busybox free, rom toolbox, android tuner, set cpu, trickstermod, add free and uninstalled them, only root app present is titanium backup pro).

You lost recovery and had all those problems because you installed busybox...
Read OP from XZDualRecovery - it clearly says - do not install busybox.
Busybox is included and if you installed another version you'll lose recovery...
You can flash fw via flashtool and root device again to repair that...

Sure you can...
You will lose root, of course but for now, there's no fw for Xperia which cannot be rooted.
So, when PC Companion say - update is ready, update your device and root ut using easy root, install NUT recovery and you'll be rooted with recovery again.
There's no "better" recovery on locked bootloader, there's only one recovery by NUT.
In that recovery you can choose CWM, TWRP and PhilsRecovery.
CWM and TWRP are my favorites and you there's not much difference between them.
Both will do the job...

I have definitely done everything correctly, I have tried both SuperSU and Superuser, busybox installed to /system/xbin/
I guess I could try a different ftf, although I highly doubt it would help.

Maybe a silly question, but you did wipe data when you updated right?

Downloaded a different ftf and that one worked, must have been a faulty download...
EDIT: Nope, I tested by uninstalling one app, when I tried to uninstall others it failed again.
I had total success with this method, how every I have also had a reboot :/
Not sure what caused it and couldn't get at my pc to get hold of any kind of log.
Might just try a pure stock unrooted jb for a while and wait to see if problem is reproduced or reported by other users.
Otherwise, great work Doom, look forward to your feature packed DoomKernel once your exams are dusted!!(best of luck btw)

-reboot

Flash back stock kernel. There are no working custom kernels yet as far as I know

That'll get rid of CWM. There is no way to have CWM with the kernel provided by Sony. What doom has done is included CWM in essentially what is his version of the stock kernel.

[Q] Rooting a i9305 without odin

You can get a version of Odin that is portable from the Play store

Exynos abuse app. Works on all but the latest 4.1.2 firmware I think.
Then you can use mobile odin to flash cwm recovery or rom or whatever.

Correct, there is currently no known exploits in Android 4.1.2, nor any SGS3 specific exploits.

Good morning all!
Im looking for a way to root my i9305 on the run.
I do not have any PC nearby and also no odin to use.
I know that with my old i9100 there was a "portable" cwm zip which i could install with my stock
Recovery.
After that i was able to install su with this cwm.
And for all that i didnt use any pc or odin,
So my question is if theres any solution for me?

Use heimdall, flash cwm, then flash superuser (I used Koush's). I just did it on 4.1.2.
1) install heimdall
2) Boot phone into download/odin mode (home+power+vol DOWN)
3) Flash cwm: heimdall flash --recovery recovery-clockwork....img --no-reboot
4) Unplug USB when the bar is full blue on phone.
5a) Some people say you need to remove the battery for 10 seconds. This is so that the phone is completely off so you can reboot into recovery. I think you can just do the key combo from the previous screen though, try it and let us know.
5b) Reboot into recovery (home+power+vol UP)
6) Boot normally and transfer your prefered superuser image to sdcard
7) Re-reboot into recovery and flash your superuser
The important part to note is the --no-reboot for heimdall. The removing battery bit may not be necessary. I think once the flash is done (full blue bar), just unplug the usb cable, and boot into recovery (home+power+vol UP) should work. The idea is that if you don't boot into recovery straight away, it'll get overwritten.

Yes, framaroot can do the job.
It is so funny that people keep saying that we cannot root our phone without odin, Ha Ha Ha.
Just install the framaroot app, it is a one click root.
In addition, you can one click unroot also with this app.
Ok, after you root,if you want to install cwm recovery, you just install another app called ROM manager (from cwm), you can install the cwm recovery from that app.
Everything is so easy and no risk.

Correct, and if you want to do it another way/app:
Download Mobile Odin from Store and flash via it the recovery you want (cwm 6.0.3.2)
And from mobile odin you can also flash custom roms
And to relate to OP, NO COMPUTERS!.
I use SentinelROM and it works like a charm on my i9305 no problems at all! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252953

[Q] problem with kernel and recovery on xperia z

I unlock the bootloader on my xperia z and then I rooted newest firmware 10.3.1.A.0.244 by following the instructions from hire http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386405 . And everything worked as it should. Than I instal recovery and android 4.3 from hire http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2354328 . Then the problems started, I tried to install app via recovery, but android did not want to boot. I decided to go back to 4.2 with 10.3.1.A.0.244 kernel, but it was no longer possible to root the phone and every time when I install recovery android will not to boot. Is there any idea about my problem. Sorry for my english
Do you want to stay on 4.2 or 4.3, just flash the kernel you need via fastboot or flashtool then that will give you a recovery to then install custom roms. As you are on a unlocked bootloader it is a lot easier to root just search for supersu cwm installation and that will root your device.
