First off there is no "CWM" app in the app store. Is it actually called x-parts? Where do I get it from?
Yes It's Called X-Part you can downloaded from the playstore and flash CWM and after that reboot into recovery and you can do SD card partietion

What do you mean "flash" CWM? You mean click the "Install CWM" from the X-Part app? I've got the Lt15i I'm not sure if it works for it.

What safe Mode ????
You download X-part installed CWM and rebooted in recovery mode.
Go to advance and there you will find Sd card partition.
Good Luck I hope you Know what you are doing

That's what it says on the screen, safe mode. How do you boot into recovery mode?
If you partition your sdcard your data into sdcard will lost. Try to backup sdcard first

Thanks I actually got it to work, I wasn't making the second partition primary. But still how do I boot in to "recovery mode"? I hold down the volume lower button when I turn on my phone and nothing happens.

It is the back button as soon as you see the Sony logo start pressing if this fails you need to move the recovery.tar to system/bin setting permission like this

Use root explorer to move file and set pemissions.

When sony logo appear, press volume down continously until you entered to recovery mode.
I never using x-part, i always did it with custom kernel. But maybe that is same way.

After I installed TWRP recovery, when I try to flash a new rom the installer says that the rom is not compatible, because it's built for another device. Something like "this is yuga, this rom is compatible with - the xperia zl name -". Do you know how to fix it?

It is. It looks like after installing the recovery the device identify itself as yuga, causing the problem. I don't know if I have to flash another boot or recovery or kernel to fix this.

Not always. If you are using stock based rom you just need stock kernel. However to use cm based roms you'll need this respective kernel.

Sorry for maybe a silly question... but don't know how to go on...
Tried the instructions I found but had no success.
First of all I rooted it with Flashtool => Works
Than I installed CWM => Works
Copied 4.4.2 Beanstalk Rom and Gapps ins CWM folder on SD Card
Booted into CWM, formated everything, installed both zips, restarted => Black => no start => no possiblity to boot in cwm.
Flashed Original Stock rom with Flashtool again => Phone lives again.
Tried a second time => same results....
Where is my failure? Is there an other option to flash from 4.1 to 4.4 than CWM? Do I have to flash Kernel seperatly?
Many thanks in advance.
no kernel and rom can be flashed together
make sure you wipe your data, dalvik, and cache

So step by step the way is:
Root Phone with Flashtool
Unclock the phone this way: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_hikari
(Is unlock also possible with flashtool?)
Install CWM.
Boot into CWM
Format Data
Install Rom
Install Gapps.
Correct?

Fota recovery not use that command, if you flash boot.img (kernel with recovery). Your kernel will always be replace it with any recovery depend on ROM that you flash it, try to see FOTA with dd if command.
