Wow awesome news
Thanks:good:
Also Can you port twrp recovery(or any other recoveries) to Sony Xperia E4g? And Is it possible?
This is great news, finally a recovery for our Sony Xperia E4, hoping that we can port this to E4g also, thank you.

No,we can use this recovery for E4g

Does this recovery use the FOTAkernel partition? read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/recovery-philz-touch-fotakernel-images-t2826333
Confirm that can't install it. Says FAILED (remote: size too large)
There is a problem with the recovery partition on the E4, it worked for me, I will try to fix the problem and I will upload the recovery as soon as I can. If you want me to port twrp to your device, send me the boot.img

How to make it?
Actually you just have to tell me what model you are and what firmware version. I will take care of the rest. It would be really helpful if you would send me the kernel.sin found in the .ftf for your device. To do this all you need to do is download the specific firmware and open it with 7-zip or winrar and extract the kernel.sin
Any recovery for e4 dual...

Yeah, I need to work a bit more on the recovery, I will upload the recovery when i fix everything.
I had a Xperia tipo bootloader locked, and i installed a cwm but not in the kernel, is there Amy way to do the same in e4 with twrp
I decided to reflash TWRP using Fastboot (Yes, it did show up in Fastboot), and I was able to flash it using:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
But when I tried to boot from it using: fastboot boot twrp.img
I get the following error:

Hmmmm...i don't think you can't reboot into recovery using fastboot command...you need to use power button + volume down to reboot into recovery manually....

re-flash the recovery and don't forget to use this command after flashing recovery....
Code:
fastboot format cache
then reboot to recovery manually....
I have exactly the same problem except I still have a working OS.
After I couldn't boot into recovery I tried to flash a new recovery by using the TWRP app ("flashed successfully"), reboot to the recovery... same thing, it's stuck at the logo. I tried the flashify app as well (flashed successfully)... reboot... same thing.
I also tried to format the cache in fastboot after flashing the recovery which didn't help.
So either I am stuck with this ROM for the rest of my OPOs live or someone can help me.
I am by no means new to flashing. I flash new ROMs since my HTC Desire, I flashed my SGS3 on a weekly basis and I own my OPO since it came out and I never had any problems.

if you don't have ROM installed you can manually flash a a rom from fastboot.
Return your OPO to Stock via fastboot

and reinitialize the rooting process, flash Twrp and supersu
Everytime I try to boot twrp i get this message.

Try "fastboot flash boot [img name]".
The correct command is
Fastboot boot [drag and drop the img]

Are you on Beta1, if so, you can't boot into recovery that way, you need to flash recovery using Magisk first.
No I'm not. I'm on 9.5.11

If you have root, try flashing the recovery installer with Magisk

This command is useless it won't work. Download the latest oxygen OS zip(full rom package not the incremental one), place it in your internal storage and update it via the local updater.
After the update is complete you can boot to fastboot and then the command will work i.e. fastboot boot imagefilename.img
Hope this helps
Hey guys.
I'm having trouble to come forward booting my device with TWRP on my Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact (G8441) using a MacOSX.
Additional info to the phone:
version-baseband:1307-7511_47.2.A.11.228
version-bootloader:1306-5035_X_Boot_MSM8998_LA2.0_P_114
Steps I did:
Unlocking the bootloader (worked)
Flashing with TWRP from Androidfilehost (here) with:
Code:
./fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
I've used Android 9.0 twrp-3.3.1-0-lilac-pie-5.img as TWRP.img
It gives me:
Code:
./fastboot flash recovery TWRP.imgSending 'recovery' (34548 KB) OKAY [ 0.750s]
Writing 'recovery' OKAY [ 0.262s]
Finished. Total time: 1.016s
Booting with TWRP:
Code:
./fastboot boot TWRP.img
Sending 'boot.img' (34548 KB) OKAY [ 0.749s]
Booting OKAY [ 5.742s]
After step #3 the phone gets stuck on the Splash screen showing "SONY" (blue LED light on)
Rebooting into normal mode using Volume-Up + Power also gives me a similar outcome leaving the phone stuck on the "XPERIA" screen.
I've read somewhere in this forum that a possible solution could be to format the cache and user data which gives me:
Code:
./fastboot format cache
/Applications/Android/./mke2fs failed with status 1
fastboot: error: Cannot generate image for cache
And a similar one for user data.
Does anyone of you have a clue what I did wrong and what I need to do next to solve it? Every constructive comment is much appreciated.
Best
EDIT:
I could get it running and were able to install lineage-17.1-20201217-UNOFFICIAL-v1.7-lilac from here (androidfilehost.com - modpunk).
It was working to get into TWRP through unplugging the USB cable. Restarting the phone and directly after it restarts pressing volume up and plugging in the USB again.
Wondering why you try to boot into TWRP when it has already been successfully installed?
Code:
fastboot boot <TWRP.IMG>
is used if TWRP isn't already installed yet.
You should run
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot recovery
instead.
I have an old oneplus i can run the command
"fastboot boot twrp-3.6.2_9-0-bacon.img"
and use twrp and flash twrp it says succesffuly but when i reboot i end up on some chinese recovery.
"
fastboot boot twrp-3.6.2_9-0-bacon.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.483s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.019s]
finished. total time: 0.505s"
Ive done "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.6.2_9-0-bacon.img"
in command prompt it complete but doesnt change anything.
In twrp it says "image flash completed"
but after reboot it goes back to the chinese recovery.
i can access file manager, is there a way to delete the old recover so i can get twrp properly installed.
