[GUIDE] Install custom ROM without computer

Hello everyone. I have come up with a lazy way to install custom ROM (such as Cyanogenmod) in *most* phone (I tried this on S3mini and Galaxy MEGA). Please note that this method moght not work on your phone and I am not responsible for bricking your phone.
Things you need:
-Your phone, fully charged
-Your precious time (About 30-60minutes)
-One click root app (I use Kingroot, download it with apk) (You may use other apps, of course)
-TWRP manager from playstore
-ZIP file of TWRP in latest version (V3?)
-ZIP file of the custom ROM matching the version of your device
-ZIP file of GApps matching the version of the custom ROM (Google for gapps and download it)
Steps:
1. Backup your personal information
Copy your personal information such as music, photo, documents out of your phone (e.g.: Cloud drive, USB, SD card). Safety first.
2. Root your phone
Download Kingroot and install the apk with package installer. Run the app and follow the instruction in the app to root.
3. Install TWRP manager
After rooting, install TWRP manager. In the app, install TWRP that match your device.
4. Create a backup for your phone
Boot your phone into recovery (Every phone have different method, so please google about this). In TWRP, press 'Backup' to create the backup.
5. Flash the latest version of TWRP
As the TWRP manager does not offer the latest version of TWRP, you have to flash the latest version by installing ZIP. The latest version of TWRP can install ROM with higher success rate.
To do this, press 'Install' in TWRP. Find the ZIP file of TWRP in latest version and install it.
6. Reboot your device to Recovery mode
7. Wipe your device
In TWRP, press 'Wipe'. Select Cache, Dalvik Cache, System and Data partition and wipe them.
8. Flash custom ROM
In TWRP, press 'Install'. Select the Custom ROM ZIP and install it.
9. Flash GApps
Most custom ROM does not have Google apps such as play stote, so you have to install it.
In TWRP, press 'Install'. Select the GApps ZIP and install it.
10. Wipe Cache and dalvik cache
In TWRP, press 'Wipe'. Select Cache and Dalvik Cache partition and wipe them.
11. Reboot your device
Now the ROM should be properly installed. First boot might take longer, so please wait patiently.
Shall you brick your phone, try to recover by using backup created in step 4.
PS: I am a newbie here and this is my first guide
While you have to wipe your device to flash the custom rom, it will wipe your data, including the actual Gapps and rom. This shows that your method won't work.

i want to upgrade my Phone xperia L C2105 with successful

Greetings.
Actually I have a Xperia L c2105 with android 4.2.2. and kernel Stock
I want to upgrade to Android 5 or 6. but I have not been able to find the files
I have the bootloader unlocked but I still lack root and install recovery
I've been looking for a lot of information but most of the download links are broken

Root
CWM kernel or any recovery
And the room more stable.
A version of kenerl that can be rooted properly with FlashTool for linux since I also get a lot of information but for windows.
I again appreciate your help.
First of all make sure that you have unlocked bootloader and 15.3.A.1.17 version of stock rom because it is good to have latest stock rom before flashing a custom one.
1. Root your device using Towelroot (from geohot ) -> LINK - ignore expired certificate, download .apk, install and root + install SuperSU
2. Install Recovery Installer (from corphish) -> LINK and give it root permission
3. Choose a custom recovery to install in 'Recovery Installer' - TWRP 3.0.2-0 downloaded from here -> LINK and placed on your sdcard0 or sdcard1
4. Reboot and enter recovery by pressing vol- or vol+ on sony logo and purple LED -> Do a factory reset, wipe caches, prepare to flash custom rom
5. Flash from .zip CyanogenMod from sdcard0 or sdcard1:
● 12.1 (5.1.1) -> LINK * the lightest
● 13.0 (6.0.1) -> LINK
● 14.1 (7.1.2) -> LINK
6. Flash gapps from -> LINK - choose ARM + version + pico
7. Reboot, wait, enjoy

FAQ
Q: Instructions unclear, phone stuck in bootloop
A: Either do this:
Download this folder and use one of the two ".bat" files. Boot into Bootloader via Volume Down and Power Button. --
It will flash S048 Firmware of our Lenovo P2, after the flash-process is finished it will boot up on its own. Recommended: Do all the ota updates via ota app.
Or: Boot into bootloader, via adb cmd prompt use: fastboot boot lineagerecovery.img , then use reboot menu to reboot into twrp. Clean Wipe phone(Wipe system,data, cache and dalvik-cache Partitions) and try flashing your Rom etc. again.
Q: Instructions unclear, hardbricked my phone!!
A: Thaat shouldn't have happened. Did you screw up somewhere?...
Luckily you backed up your most important files!
