Recovery fix
UPDATE:
I FINALLY FOUND A SOLUTION FOR THE AFTER A WHILE DISAPPERAING TWRP RECOVERY!
SOMETIMES IT`s GOOD TO SEARCH IN OLDER THREADS
Problem! :/
I have some problems about speaker and headset with microphone.
Anyone can't hear me when I speak with speaker
And I can't talk to anyone with headphone. I hear toppy sound.
I think problems source is boomsound, how can I uninstall other extra mods?
Help me please!
I followed all the instructions but at the end my phone ended up in bootloop. How can I recover my phone now?
Please help, Thanks!

Well if you don't have recovery you have to flash a ftf with flashtool.
If u have recovery you can wipe amd start the process again.
Have you tried the MMbootloop
fix.zip?
nice tutorial
works 100%

did you flash the bootloop fix.zip? did you try to flash a recovery like the NUT`s Dualrecovery after flashing the needed files? because there is no working recovery except the one in my tutorial! try to only flash the needed files, and skip every optional step! you can try all the zips you want to install after installing the twrp recovery. this tutotial works 100%

hey! you installed a soundmod? then i am sorry, you have to reinstall a lollipop ftf, root it (i do it with kingsroot) and install a recovery (i prefer NUT`s dualrecovery)
then do the whole procedure again but skip all the oiptional steps with xposed and so on! dont forget to install the recovery, and use the fix if it disappears after using it for one time. after doing that, check your sound, if its not working, its 100% a hardware bug. if its working, make a full backup using the recovery, and then flash one zip file, check if sound is working, then flash another one (mabye it`s becasue of an incompatible zip!) thats why you should backup the system.

I actually don't know these things. I just like some advantages of root and wanted to see android mm. I actually don't know what should I do. If there is a video, instruction, photo etc. I follow them and do it. Could you tell me what should I do at first? If I just turn back to 5.1.1 pre rooted and do that process again, will it be fixed?
not worked
it says md5 skipping (sucessful in 1 sec). pls help sony z2
use my own tft file with your tutorial
Hello, I am still waiting for release of CE1 .570 version by Sony. After that I want to create my own pre-rooted file. Should it work with your tutorial? Any special steps needed when creating own tft file to make it work with your tutorial?

of course you can use another .570 ftf for the z2! it works the same way, all the zip files (most important the bootloopfix) do work.
but you have to use the same supersu zip file like in my flashablemm file! download it and extract the supersu zip out of the flashablemm zip using winrar you can also try the newest beta from supersu but the one i used is more likely to be safe. (NOT 2.46!!!) just use the prf creator, select your ftf, for root select the supersu zip i used, CHECK all the features (in the right upper box) like fotakernel and so on and ckeck "sign" the zip file to avoid trouble while flashing it. you are invited to press the thanks button!

model= D6503 or D6502?
did you wipe cache and dalvik and made a factory reset via recovery before trying to flash the flashablemm?
of course you need to exctract all the files from "Marshmallow_D6503.zip" and then flash "FlashableMM.zip" and then the other files like me...
maybe you " checked" something like "zip file signature verification" before "swipe to confirm flash"?
try it with and without enabling the zip file signature verification.
if it still doesnt work`, redownload the file! maybe the file got broken while downloading it

I just tried make my own prerooted flashable zip from US ftf and it works for me. See pic. of my settings.
Now i have [LB] D6503 .570 fw SuperSu 2.71 and twrp 3.0.2.0 after rebooting to twrp again I flashed busybox 1.24
Good luck
btw. Do you have any specific reason to wait for CE ftf. You always can disable /uninstall all bloatware with TB.

I see you used higher version of (beta) SuperSU, any reason? Or you just wanted to try and it worked?
I have no special reason waiting for CE1 .570 apart from wanting to have ROM for my region (despite the fact most of the ROM code is probably the same)

I used the supersu beta because the newest "stable" version 2.46 doesn`t with Xperia´s marshmallow! but don`t panic, the beta zips are nearly as stable as the 2.46 but not finally completed for marshmallow. when the final supersu zip for marshmallow is available you can download and simply flash it on your marshmallow system if you want. I used this supersu version because I knew 100% that it will work. everything higher than the version I used will work too

When I saw that I could upgrade to Lollipop I was interested. Then I realized there probably was no root for this yet. So I went about figuring out a way to root it before going to it. Technically this isn't a root once you have already gone to Lollipop.
THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF YOU ARE STILL ON KITKAT, ROOTED, WITH RECOVERY (TWRP is what I use via NUT's Dual Recovery for the Z1).
Requirements:
PRFCreator - Creates pre-rooted firmware - Click Here to Download
Flashtool - Allows you to flash the FTF - Click Here to Download
The FTF for the upgrade - C6916_14.5.B.0.236_T-mobile_US.ftf - Click Here
The latest SuperSU zip from ChainFire - Click here to Download
I'm assuming you have adb, drivers installed and a general understanding of how to navigate the tools above, if not read up on how they work.
Create a pre-rooted flashable firmware with PRFCreator. Install/Download PRFCreator and put the FTF and the latest SuperSU binary zip in the spot labeled SuperSU Zip. Make sure to check the box next to kernel in the include box on the top right side. See screenshot below.

Congrats you have just created a flashable zip with SuperSU loaded into it. You might ask why you're not gonna add NUT's XZDualRecovery into there. Reading on the forms at the time of this post and it apppears that PRFCreator and/or Nut's recovery doesn't play well with Lollipop and causes bootloops. So run NUT's Z1xzdualrecorvery installer via bat or sh after the fact and not during via PRFCreator until they can work it out.
Make sure you have the original C6916_14.5.B.0.236_T-mobile_US.ftf in the firmwares folder either C:\Flashtool\Firmwares or C:\User\[username]\.flashtool\firmwares
Now take the flashable zip you created via PRFCreator and put it on your phones internal storage, sdcard etc.
Now that you have the flashable zip with SU preinstalled and ready to fire, reboot your phone into recovery. adb reboot recovery etc.
Once your phone has rebooted into recovery you will need to flash the flashable zip you created with PRFCreator.
After flashing the zip I'd suggest wiping the cache/dalvik. And then you will want to go to the reboot screen and power off the device.
Once the device is powered off open Flashtool.
After it loads and syncs the devices (takes a second) you'll want to double click C9XX from the list (Z1).
Next click the BOLT icon in the top left navigation that has a tooltip that says "Flash"
When the flash screen comes up select the right firmware based on the FTF location, check SYSTEM and BASEBAND under the exclude section and uncheck DATA under the wipe section, I unchecked APPSLOG but you don't have to uncheck it (to be honest I think it slowed my initial bootup by upgrading my apps) via this screenshot:
Now click the "Flash" button with your device disconnected and powered off. Follow the directions. For your Z1s you'll want to hold the "DOWN VOLUME" button and then plug the USB connector into it.
Next you will see Flashtool flashing away. Once it's complete you can unplug your phone and then power it up.
Your device is now rooted and running Lollipop. In terms of installing a custom recovery, again all of that is untested and you'll need to play around with the latest XZdualrecovery from NUT to see how it works.
REMINDER: This doesn't solve killing ric etc. Which is important to note for being able to mount the system etc. You can kill ric via tasker and an .sh script like I do or via a flashable kill ric (seen a few floating around) if you get recovery installed after the fact etc.
Thanks to:
Chainfire for his SUPERSU
zxz0O0 for his PRFCreator tool
Androxyde for keeping flashtool going
greatremix for posting up the FTF
I'll be uploading the flashable zip that I made from PRFCreator. It's over a gb obviously so it might be just as easy for you all to create it yourself.
Reserved
To solve most issues with not being able to write to the system which most root apps need. Install NUT's latest xzdualrecovery which can be found at this address under xzdualrecovery. I installed 2.8.15 via the installer (not the flashable)

Whoah whoah whoa... Let me make sure I got this straight... You... have a Z1S (Not a Z1, but Z1S) and you actually managed to root it on lollipop AND unlock the bootloader?!!!?!... Please tell me you are not joking. Or am I just not understanding correctly...
THE BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED?!!!?! If you did that... that is amazing. Do you know how long people have been trying to unlock the bootloader for this dam thing? But.. before I jump to conclusions. I'll wait for your reply.

That is the reason why the bootloader is locked. It might say you have unlocked the bootloader but you really haven't. It's still locked hence the inability to flash a custom ROM. I would suggest against anyone trying flashtool to unlock the bootloader, it will not work.
Best to get root, recovery and xposed if it works.

i'm stuck now, do you have a C6902 stock kernel, or any way to change phone infomation by flashtool ?
it's show that my phone is C6902 in flash tool now, so i can't flash any rom or back to stock now
@joedeveloper I'm currently on 4.4.4, rooted with baseband .59, but noticed by your directions with "prfcreator" that you do not have us "check" modem when building the flashable zip. Would it hurt to include the modem so as to get the updated baseband to .69?
Also being deodexed, will that cause issues?
Thanks for the help
Not to distract from joedevelopers hard work, but I think its important for me to inform you guys that if you have already upgraded to lollipop through sony pc companion, or ota, King root does in fact work just fine. It will give a screen saying that it could not find that xperia z1s is rootable, but it will also give an option to try to root anyway. After pressing it, it will tell you the device was sucessfully rooted. And if you check with root verifier it will let you know root was successful. So you're still good if you upgraded to lollipop.
@joedeveloper Settings>About Phone reports baseband .69 after update, so that answers that.
I went back to tft .37 and did a fresh install so I have no information if one with a deodexed phone will be effected.
Many thanks to this update method.
SOLVED
Anyone get xposed to work after this update?
Can you clarify the ric thing?
So far so good, got recovery installed, now im going to try to install the audio mod, cause i desperately need that lol
SO I finally got it to where i got a flash able zip and it worked phone says its rooted , but it won"t let me install adblocker , edit file with root explore and busybox they all say failed , please help

This is what I'm referring to as the issue with sony ric being enabled. It's sony's way of preventing you from writing to the system, and most root apps need this. If you were to run:
adb shell
then
su
then
mount -o remount,rw /system
What does it tell you? "Denied"?
In order to prevent sony ric from blocking it, try installing NUT's xzdualrecovery version 2.8.15. Z1-lockeddualrecovery2.8.15-RELEASE.installer.zip
http://nut.xperia-files.com/
It has a built in ric killer and will solve your issues.
So all I have to do is flash the zip on my z1s to have.recovery correct I have root supersu
Got root, thanks.
Okay, got root. Thank you. The trick is to keep doing the ADB root until it works. It doesn't work the first couple of times. I gave it 20 minutes each time before trying to install again.
Jellybean
I tried your steps from Jellybean but got no root on lollipop but I can't get root from 4.4.4. Is there a 4.4.2 firmware floating around and could that be the problem? I did the steps twice and followed it exactly. The only difference is 4.3.

You're welcome mate!
One thing to keep in mind if you follow the PRFcreator tool route is that before you flash your device with your pre-rooted image, is that to go into system - Apps and then check for any apps that you have moved to your SD card. Move any apps that you have on the SD card back to Phone Memory before you boot to recovery and start flashing your phone. Once you done, you can move them back if you want to, to free up phone memory.
Don't worry, you have not lost your apps, only downside is when you scroll through all your pages and you see all those "app missing" icons, you have that WTF? moment
The reason for this is that after the upgrade, it doesn't see the apps any more when looking at your apps pages as if the SD card is missing. If you go to System - Apps and looking at all your installed apps, you will see they are still then. To fix the issue, simply move them back to phone memory.
...hope my explanation makes sense.

One thing to keep in mind if you follow the PRFcreator tool route is that before you flash your device with your pre-rooted image, is that to go into system - Apps and then check for any apps that you have moved to your SD card. Move any apps that you have on the SD card back to Phone Memory before you boot to recovery and start flashing your phone. Once you done, you can move them back if you want to, to free up phone memory.

Thanks bro for this helpful info
Doesnt work for me
Thats my way how to get the prerootet .264.
i flash the .402 and rootet it with easyrootool.
as i am later in twrp i choose my own prerootet .264, build it wit prfcreator, exactly how it should be.
after i have flashed the prerootet, no mater if i wipe cache + dalvik cache, when i want to reboot the system it says:
Root Access is missing/broken. Roo [..%] Time
- No
- Yes - Aplly root (/system/xbin/su)
- No
and no matter if i choose yes or no, after rebooting and updating the apps, there is no supersu or ndr utils to find.

Flash the .232 through flashtool then update using zip file and make sure you added the correct SuperSU file and the correct recoveyr and make sure to include Kernel , FOTAkernel , Modem , LTAlabel ,,, then try again
Thats it!
With the .232 it works.
After the .264 reboots, i had to install supersu again, without updating it. supersu works fine know and i have finally my 5.1.1. wit root - yes!
Thanks alot!

You are welcome!! I'm glad it's working for all of you
guys, I just went back to 4.4, rooted, then used the recovery to install the 264 zip file, the same message of cillow's appeared to me:
"Root Access is missing/broken. Roo [..%] Time
- No
- Yes - Aplly root (/system/xbin/su)
- No"
When I rebooted the phone was without superUS and when I installed it it said that I didn't have root oO
Anyone knows what happened/what can be used to fix it?
Thanks!

Before installing the XZDR on 4.4 copy/upload the prerooted zip on your phone. After you install the XZDR the phone will reboot; now you can proceed to install the prerooted zip, it will include SuperSU and recovery. The phone reboots to recovery so you can install the SuperSU .zip, but there is no need for that. All we need to install a prerooted .zip is the recovery. SuperSU will be after restarting the phone on the new software.

I did that, like, downgrade > root > install recovery > boot on recovery > install prerooted .264. BUT after restarting, superSU wasn't there and not even the recovery. As I said, before I boot after installed the 264, it showed me the message about root.
Thanks!

prerooted zip wasn't build correctly.
Just made it, but went downgrade > root > install recovery > boot on recovery > install prerooted .232 > install prerooted .264 and it worked. I used the prerooted zip file that is avaible at the begnning of the topic, didnt made it myself. Thanks anyway =)

Do not work with Nougat 7.1.1 / 32.4.A.0.160 (Bootloop)
New TWRP (You dont need otg and mouse anymore!):
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120733410 (thanks to andralex8!)
GUIDE UPDATED, TESTED AND SIMPLIFIED 15.2.2017 (thanks to munjeni)
Tested with Saudi Arabia, Germany and Nordic (.378) firmwares
I managed to get my Xperia Z4 Tablet (SGP771) LTE model to have root, TWRP-recovery*, munjenis DRM fix and Adaway working with Nougat firmware (Saudi Arabia). I will share steps that I have done with my own tablet. If this guide brick your device or something goes wrong, I am not responsible for loss of your device. Use this guide only with your own RISK!
This tutorial is not for beginners. You need to have working adb installed yout pc, unlocked tablet, sonys special driver for fastboot. and TA backup (example TA-21062016.img). Use only this tutorial with Sony USB-cable.
*To get TWRP working, you need: OTG-cable and a mouse with wire or wireless mouse with a dongle.
0. Download Nougat 32.3.A.0.376 (Saudi Arabia) firmware with Xperiafirm 32.3.A.0376. to your PC
1. Flash Nougat 32.3.A.0.376 (Saudi Arabia) with Flashtool 0.9.23.2.
2. Boot your device and enable Developer settings from setting
3. Enable USB debugging setting from Developer settings
4. Download Supersu and Magisk to your device:
https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/supersu/download/zip/SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip
http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk
5. Shutdown your device
6. Download munjenis DRM fix and serajr script package v2 to your pc:
http://munjeni.myiphost.com/ta_poc.rar
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70959962&postcount=65
7. Decompress files from munjeni and serajir to same folder.
8. Extract kernel.sin from your nougat firmware ftf (You can use 7zip to do this). Copy it to same folder with DRM fix. Rename kernel.sin to kernelX.sin
9. Copy your TA backup to same folder with DRM fix and rename it TA.img
10. Open Cmd with admistrator persimmions and use DOUBLECLICKME_NOUGAT.bat (search cmd rght mouseclick use admistrator).
11. Follow munjenis tool tutorial: You can choose if you want Sony Ric off. I left it on but turned dm verity off.
12. Download TWRP: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B0j3VJ1Xp5N8cnhQamtxRWVtRmc
13. Press vol up and connect your device to pc to use fastboot. Use command: fastboot flash boot new_boot.img
14. After that use command: fastboot flash recovery TWRP-3.0.2-0-20160604.img
15. Disconnect your device and put otg-cable to tablets usb and connect mouse to otg-cable.
16. Press vol down + power to boot to TWRP. Touchscreen is not workin but you can use your mouse to navigate in TWRP!
17. Allow TWRP to make changes to your device and flash Supersu 2.79 and Magisk 11.1.
18 Boot your device and install magisk manager from the play store.
19. Enable from magisk manager settings: busybox, magisk hide and systemless hosts and Install Adaway (Will not work without Magisk, strange).
I have not managed to get my CTS profile approved but that is not major issue if not playing with Pokemon go (You can use magisk to detect this).
Note1 : Change LTE to 1 priority from mobile setting. Default for SA firmware is GSM
Note2: If you have already tried rootkernel to get drm working; do a full wipe and reflash firmware with flashtool. Rootkernel messes something. Tablet do not boot if you have used rootkernel and after that try to use munjenis DRM fix.
Note3: Magisk 11.1 wont work with Xperia Z4 Tablet without Supersu. So flash Supersu first and Magisk 11.1 after that
Note4: You cannot boot to TWRP by using root and reboot to recovery apps. You need to boot to the recovery with keycommand voldown+power
I hope this guide helps some fellow flashers

Strange, I Did not encourter this problem because I could boot to TWRP and do adb trick there. Do you use orginal Sony usb to flash in fastboot? I had once a problem with Samsung Phone (S7) to flash recovery because the usb was not the one that came with my Phone.
Yeah
Try redownload TWRP image and flash it. If not working do a clean flash and try again or wait for Androplus kernel

Couldnt I just do the root and recovery method you have given on the wifi version as im not too bothered about drm fix for now as it looks abit complicated at the moment for me. It would be much more simple for me to flash recovery then super su. I just wanna know if this is possible?
Thanks
I am not sure. You need atleast a correct TWRP. You can try if You dare with your own RISK
But I doubt that it wont work..

Step 8 says Extract kernel.sin from your nougat firmware copy it to same folder with DRM fix. Rename kernel.sin to kernelX.sin. Do I have to extract that from the ftf or my Nougat firmware im currently using? Also does the ftf have to be that region?

You need to extract it from ftf-image. I used 7zip. My device was Nee with stock. I used DE with Marshmallow and I am currently using Saudi Arabia. So I dont think it will matter, which kernel you use with your device. But I would use same kernel version with rom. So If you are using Saudi Arabia rom use Saudi Arabia kernel. For Russia rom use Russia kernel, and so on
I will add tft-image extract to tutorial!
DRM fix doesn't work. XReality (among other things I assume) are ever disabled.
On Marshmallow DRM fix was working fine (was using XReality engine despite the unlocked bootloader)
For me it is working!
So many LEECHERS exist, It's not hard to press a button..

HI :3
a request, could use the same kernel of the Latin American version of the model 6603? since I use that version, and this device and has the fingerprint sensor, please, I currently use the kernel of the US version and I do not have the fingerprint sensor enabled, or is there any way to reactivate this sensor with the American kernel?

Are you sure you flashed the right firmware? With ".TA" removed? Try to flash the firmware and make sure it's the right model and build number using flashtool. Also check the img file if it's the right model too.

Try to flash ftf (firmware without the boot.img and twrp.img) also I might recommend to download the ftf via Xperifirm and not the one provided by the OP. Use the customised version.

i think the problem comes from twrp.....
its not compatible with my device
is there any other method to root?
Firstly, I do not take any responsability in case anything happens to your device or your files. You decided to follow this guide at your own risk.
THIS WORKED FOR ME FOR MAGISK v14.3
ALSO WORKS ON MAGISK v14.5
I highly not recommend to use this guide for a different device other than the Xperia Z2 D6503.
All that aside, I managed to install magisk on my Stock Xperia Z2 and still keep ctsProfile and basicIntegrity: true.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO BACK EVERYTHING UP BEFORE PROCEEDING
You will need:
(OPTIONAL)Marshmallow FTF Firmware Here
(OPTIONAL)Flashtool Here
Magisk Manager Here
Rootkernel_v4.31_Windows_Linux.zip Here
ADB and Fastboot Here
Advanced Stock Kernel Here
TWRP Sirius Here
(OPTIONAL BUT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) Use flashtool to flash the modified version of the stock ROM from above. It worked on this version but I can't really guarantee it will work on others. Can't really guarantee it will work on this either.(after you select the file there are 2 versions. pick the modified one).
1) Extract the Rootkernel_v4.31_Windows_Linux.zip and extract from the advanced stock kernel the boot.img (Rename it from boot.img to Old_boot.img)
2) Open cmd and use cd to reach the folder in which you extracted rootkernel.
Use the command "rootkernel Old_boot.img New_boot.img"
Say Yes to everything except installing TWRP.
3) Install Magisk Manager on your phone and copy "New_boot.img" to the phone.
4) Go to Magisk Manager settings , scroll to Update Channel and select Beta
5) Select install Magisk and select modify boot image. Select "New_boot.img" from the folder you copied it to
6) Extract adb to a folder
7) After patching the boot image at step 6, copy "patched_boot.img" from internal storage/MagiskManager to the folder in which you extracted adb
8) Copy TWRP to the adb folder and rename it to TWRP.img
9) Open cmd and use cd to navigate to the folder in which you copied adb. Type in the console "fastboot flash boot New_boot.img". Turn off your phone and then hold Volume Up whil plugging it into your pc(booting it into fastboot).
10) While still in fastboot, type "fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img"
11) Disconnect your phone from the pc. Wait a few seconds and then boot into TWRP (hold power button and Volume Down). A notification will pop up and select to "Keep System Readonly" (I think something like that). Reboot into system.
If everything worked as intended, a safetynet check will reveal everything in green, allowing you to both have root access and also run apps like Netflix and Android Pay
NOTE: Magisk Modules should be flashed via TWRP. For some reason, Magisk Manager is unable to install them.
EDIT: I tried to install xposed systemlessly but Safetynet was triggered. Don't think I can figure this out.
DahakePL tried with elite kernel and it didn't work. Writing this just in case anyone tries.
This worked for me but I can't guarantee it will work for you. (Photos at the end)
Did this guide help you? If you need any help, I will do my best to answer your questions.
I am not a developer and I do not really understand why or how everything works. I came across this method that worked for me and I thought I'd share it since I couldn't find a guide for my xperia phone when I needed it.
IN CASE SAFETY NET IS TRIGGERED, the only way to restore to everything in green is to reflash the stock rom (you don't have to format everything).
Did it work out for you? Just leave a reply saying that so I can figure out if everything works.

Thank you man
Great job
Hi there and great job. Many thanks for this.
I've a question, "(OPTIONAL BUT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) Use flashtool to flash the modified version of the stock ROM from above (after you select the file there are 2 versions. pick the modified one)." - what if another .291 stock firmware is used (eg downloaded from Xperifirm)?

Well, this worked on this exact version. If you don't use it, i can't guarantee it will work.
Well, can't either way
But it worked on that one. I believe you don't have to reinstall your stuff if you already have the stock rom. You can just flash it over without deleting anything
Works fine thank you

Awesome
I'm actually surprised.
Doesn't work on elite kernel, just tested, no root and no safetynet

Have you tried with the advanced kernel I linked?
Also, you have to be running stock
Xperia z2

I'm using the advanced stock kernel method and it works 100%
But I tried elite kernel and it doesn't work at all, just in case someone else wanted to know or something :highfive:

Why do I need to flash TWRP? It is already included into advanced stock kernel.
After flash magisk, can't mount otg drive in twrp

I am running a phone with KK 4.4.4 rooted and xposed installed. What should I do first to use it?
If I want to keep few apks data?
May I install Cyberian Camera MOd after it?
Thanks you! Working finally!

Guys, I once rooted my Z2 with SuperSU in locked bootloader condition (already unroot it). Im interested with magisk and want to try it. Is it possible for me even my device is bootloader locked? Thank you

Perfect for me. Thank you very much!
But your step 9 is wrong. should be "fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img"
My ROM is Marshmallow_Stock_575_ROM_Ultraslim
must remove SuperSU (root) before installing, use UPDATE-unSU-signed.zip
Can't get this to work at all. I'm on Customised UK stock ROM.
No matter what I do, I get bootloops once Magisk is installed. If I use the Magisk Uninstaller from TWRP the phone works fine again.
EDIT: I should have said, I've tried with Magisk 16.0 and 16.7 Beta. No luck with either. I've also tried patching the advanced stock kernel boot.img and I've tried installing via TWRP with Bootloader-SonyELF. No luck again, just the same bootloop!
UPDATE: I managed to fix this by using the latest version of the RootKernel patching tool (v5.23) instead of v4.31 and following the rest of the instructions using the boot.img from advanced stock kernel with Magisk 16.7 installed successfully.
Work fine with Magisk 18
okay after two soft brick, red blinking light and the device wont turn on, i finally succeed installing this. the first issue i'm getting is adb command not found when running the "fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img", so i tried to use TWRP to install the img, which refuse saying it need bootbridge, so i install through the recommend option in magisk manager (installing directly) which cause the first brick
the first brick is restored by using flash tool
the second brick can't be restored by flash tool due to the usb debugging is off causing flash tool to said "device connected but using old drivers", luckily xperia companion software (now called emma) restored it succesfully
and i finally figured what causing the soft brick, since emma said the bootloader is locked and magisk can't be used with locked bootloader and that bricked the device.
anyway finally unlocked the bootloader since emma needed it to unbrick the device. and after unlocking the bootloader and follow again the procedure here i finally succeed installing magisk on my z2
TLDR: YOU NEED UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER TO FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE. to check easily if your bootloader is locked or not is just by running Emma (xperia updater replacement) or use "fastboot oem device-info".
finally can try magisk, since many apps detect supersu now and refuse to work with it. i didn't unlocked the bootloader the first time since supersu can work with locked bootloader >_>
