Found new TWRP version on Infinitius ROM (Host for Resurrection Remix, Mokee and LineageOS).
Infinitius ROM
Flashable .zip attached below.
Any idea if it's official? Is it any better than what we have now (TWRP 3.0.2-M1) ?

Its not an official update by TeamWorks.. this is just someone's edited+version named to look as if it's an actual update. Remember the MS Windows 2001 XP cd anyone? Yeah,. like that
guys resurrection remix is my favourite os.. can you pls tell me how to install resurrection remix on j6 :crying:
No one is pretty much using RR right now, but if you do want it:
1. Flash TWRP
2. Format Data
3. Flash the ROM

EDIT: Here's your late reply.
So, I created this bootlogo inspired by the Nokia 1 bootlogo. I recommend using it with Lineage OS 15.1 Go Edition, it will make more sense or not.
Hope you enjoy
Install:
Just flash .zip file on TWRP
Hello all,
Tried to build Los 17.1 from source, build is successful and flashes via TWRP.
Gets stuck at Los bootanimation, if I flash TWRP and switch to a different slot. Device goes back to OOS without any data loss.
Would really appreciate if anyone could help me get this booted.

Note: This thread is only for development queries, please do not flash this just to try los, it doesn't boot.
Edit 1: Rom boots if flashed on slot A, but doesn't resize partitions, so not able to flash gapps.
Edit 2: Gapps flashing issue fixed.

I'm not a Developer, but I have many years experience tweaking and flashing all my devices.
One of the first things I try is to format my data in twrp (so factory reset). It's an inconvenience but it usually fixed a bunch of issues for me.
2nd one is making sure I flash to the A partition. Never been a problem on this phone but on my razer phone I could only ever boot LOS on partition A
I got recently an Xperia M (C1905) with stock, and trying to install a decent firmware (even official ones) seems like a daunting task due to most of the threads here being archived. So this is a self guide (for me) for whoever needs to install a new ROM. Although the LineageOS has a very thorough guide, for a device that is not maintained anymore, many xda-ers might find this one helpful.
I'll cover 2 main topics: Unlocking the bootloader, Flashing TWRP and a custom ROM
Prerequisites
I'm assuming you have a computer (preferably a linux) that has already fastboot and adb.
Unlocking the Bootloader
Spoiler
It's a straightforward task, just head to Sony's website for developpers and follow the guidelines (get your IMEI and request a code)
Another way to unlock your BL is through the flashtool (apparently it's more recommended) but it's tough to estimate till when it will be supported. Ideally Xperifirm comes preinstalled with flashtool, but it didn't have firmware for my devices (Xperia M).
I also got a bootloop after I unlocked the bootloader, it wouldn't continue past the splash screen. My guess is that the data partition needed a format after unlocking the BL.
TWRP
Spoiler
There is no structure info on xda or twrp's website, but after lurking around a bit on the forum, I managed to boot into TWRP.
Get the latest TWRP from their website
Boot your phone into fastboot
Flash the twrp image through fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot twrp-3.0.2-0-nicki.img
Reboot into recovery by pressing the volume up button after powering it on
Connect through adb, and flash the FOTA Kernel (this step is recommended by twrp team and devs here). The FOTA Kernel you can get it from this post(it's the same as the twrp image you flashed through fastboot).
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
Once you flash the FOTA Kernel, you can format data.
There are plenty of ROMs that are still available, check the list below, once you download the zip file put it on your sdcard (through adb)
Now, wipe system, cache, dalvik, data, and install your favorite ROM
Reboot and enjoy
I had this weird error where I couldn't flash the recovery through fastboot (error: "Couldn't parse partition size '0x')
So tried to use
Code:
fastboot flash:raw boot twrp-3.0.2-0-nicki.img
and it worked.
You can watch this video if you are feeling unsure (Although it skips the steps where you should install the FOTA Kernel)
List of ROMs that still work (2021)
Spoiler
Obviously I didn't test all of them, but the links still exist.
Resurrection Remix (Official website)
Resurrection Remix (CodeZero)
LineageOS (unofficial)
CypherOS
AOSP
Plenty more on androidfilehost

Official Firmwares
If anyone has any official sources for the official FTF firmwares, please post them in the thread, as I couldn't find any.
Hi and thanks for this tutorial in 2021.
I had this old phone(Xperia M C005 - dual SIM) here and decided to install LineageOS on it just for fun and after following this tutorial I was able to do it. Still, I ran into some problems especially because of the FOTA Kernel.
So here are the steps I took if any one is interested or having the same problems I had. But first, I recommend everyone to read the tutorial above. It's very good and this is just to complement it.
******* TWRP ***********
Boot into fastmode (power off the device, press volume down button while connecting the usb cable to a computer and when a blue light shows up below the screen it's in fast boot)
Run the command in your computer to install twrp:
./fastboot flash boot twrp-3.0.2-0-nicki.img
You can disconnect the device.
*******Install custom rom (LineageOS in my case) ***********
Boot into TWRP by pressing the power button and volume up button at the same time and release when the sony logo shows up. The menu where your are supposed to swip right can be unresponsive for some reason(maybe still loading something). Wait for like a minute and it should behave normally.
Go to Advanced->Sideload
Send the custom rom, FOTAKernel, Gapps and Dual SIM patch to the device with the following command(replace *location* with the path of every file):
./adb push *location* /sdcard
Go to the TWRP terminal and run the following command:
dd if=/sdcard/FOTAKernel.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
After, install the custom rom(wipe data just to be sure), followed by the dual SIM patch and Gapps
You can reboot after that. Wait patiently for lineage OS to start. It will stay at the boot screen for like 10 minutes.
