This Device is 'Hermes' instead of hollyss - cannot flash via TWRP - Sony Xperia M5

Hello there!
After unlocking bootloader & flashing TWRP with instructions and files overe here
/youtu.be/uqxFs_QSwOU
Xperia was about to flash some custom ROM and...
A strange error occured in recovery:
Error 7
This package is for device: holyss; this device is Hermes.
But... Hermes is a name for Redmi Note 2 :'D isn't?
Does it mean that Xperia find itself as Redmi? x)
Before, everything was wiped out: dalvik, cache etc.
It was impossible even to restore system from backup until enabling md5 veryfication - before there was a problem with cache.
Anyway, TWRP seems to work kinda... Laggy.
Save the phone, good people!
Thank you

As you can see, i have twrp recovery for this device and they are probably using one of my alpha versions that i ported from Redmi Note 2 which goes by hermes, you can flash my recovery and which rom are you going to flash ?

Thanks for your quick reply!

You mean recovery from this thread?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-m5/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-2-touch-recovery-t3461728
Now with TWRP flashed is it only supposed to replace with version 'holyss' via fastboot or phone needs some preps before? (Like removing old one)
There are fresh new lineage 14 builds 'nicki' with only camera not working
and TWRP nicki for M series from TW site, of course
https://download.lineageos.org/nicki
If it won't work, Lineage 13 from your thread would be fine

Just flash it with fastboot no preps required, nicki is Sony Xperia M so that rom won't work and my rom has bugs.

Great Job, now everything goes smoothly Lineage 13 has been installed.
There is only a problem with baseband, it's unknown and no SIM detected.
May flashing stock backup and then again Lineage get IMEI back?
Or a solution will be something like that:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-m5/help/please-help-imei-null-baseband-null-t3426746
It's dual-sim thread but we have two methods in links below.

Can you give me like of drivers? I used one in unbrick tool but it is not getting installed
I have no other drivers than those in the unbrick thread.
There is also a process of installing them described, which is tricky, because the drivers are not digitally signed.
If you are on windows 7, you must put them in test mode....don't know how it is with other versions of windows, because I used my older machine with W7 for unbricking.
It is all there, in the unbrick thread.....If I remember correctly....

Finally unbrciked the device using that guide and after some workarounds got 3g working. But the biggest problem I am facing now is. I am stuck in stock 1.2..5i with twrp 2.7.0 can't old backup are not showing in recovery also can't flash anything. No system update. Flashing nameless Rom latest results in updater script error. Tried flashing latest twrp but it will reboot to system every time I try to boot into recovery. Sorry for my bulky English.
Yes, this exact problem I had also to face.
And I don't remember it exactly, but If I'm not mistaken, I flashed the original ColorOS recovery, did some updates and finally then I ended up with ColorOS 2.1.5i, I think.....
From that point TWRP recoveries worked alright, even the newest versions.
If you managed to unbrick your device, this is piece of cake, just remember - you need original ColorOS recovery firstly.

And where can I find the v11?
Never mind find it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=22429
v11 still won't work if your /data partition is on ext4 fs. If you can, please wipe your internal storage and convert it to f2fs, then the v11 recovery would work fine for you. But if you can't do that, sadly, there is no solution apart from removing security from phone (Pin,Pattern,FP) and then try decrypting data.
It works, I can backup my data now
Maby a noob question but can I flash superuser.zip in twrp or must it with a command. With my n6 I flash su in twrp. Does this also work with oneplus 3???
All work

Tnx for that but google was my best friend. No I running f2fs, custom recovery v11 and root on 4.0 Running great. Was testing a custom rom 7.1.1 but root disappeared. Problem on N I read. Thia only is when I must flash root but read rom with build in root the root stays there. I'm satisfied with what I now turn. If the problems are solved and kernel source are released for N I give cutom ROMs a chance.

The only working recovery actually is latest TWRP (v11) from blu_spark.
Flash it via fastboot command.
EDIT: sorry for useless answering, just now I've seen that my method was already done.

[Recovery] TWRP 3.1.1 (unofficial)

I was looking for a TWRP for the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2. I've found a chinese board where a user called YouLinw compiled TWRP for us. According to him and the users there (Google Translator) it seems to work. Can't test it by now, because my Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 isn't shipped right now. It was really tricky to register in this chinese board and then to download the file. You can download it yourself in the board and for all other users I made a mirror with no registration.
There's now a new english TWRP from Xiaomi.eu.
I don't take any responsibilities for this file. If you break or damage your phone, it's your fault!
The recovery is in chinese - but you shuold be able to use it with screenshots in your language.

Hope you like it.
Great find! Any idea what version of SuperSU can be used to root The device ?
In this chinese board there's something written like, that SuperSu 2.82 is suitable for the Mix 2 (without guarantee).

unable to mount /system after nadroid backup
TWRP installed fine and experienced no issues until I made a full Nandroid backup. After the backup I have issues flashing because the device is unable to mount /system . busy or in use error.
So now I wait until official TWRP.
If you are having any twrp issues just reboot into twrp and the issues will be gone. Try again!

For the life of me I cannot get this TWRP to do anything. My phone came with Global 8.5 Stable. I confirmed my bootloader is unlocked. I flashed the TWRP and booted it, it boots fine but trying to backup anything I get Failed to unmount "/system" (Device or resource busy). I tried to reboot back into TWRP still same problem, I tried to reflash TWRP through both fastboot and TWRP image installer. I downloaded the EU rom and tried to flash it and it also failed to flash. OEM unlock is checked, USB debugging is on. TWRP gets over written with the Mi Mix recovery whenever I boot back into system, it doesn't ask me if I want to modify anything when it first boots. Why is this giving me so much trouble I've never encountered this problem with TWRP. Any Advice?.
Thanks much

There is still no official TWRP available. I always do a full wipe factory reset and manual wipe everything before flashing anything. I also get the errors, but I've never tried to restore a backup because I usually just do clean installs each time because the ROMs available right now aren't stable enough for daily use.
The trick for EU rom is complete wipe than boot back into TWRP and try flashing. You will get 2 errors but will install fine. You can install USB drive or transfer EU rom through mtp via TWRP.
I'll do it like @allrockedout
It seems this TWRP is more beta than stable :-/
Also check the "Mount" button and uncheck the option to open all partitions readonly.
Then reboot TWRP. Last but not least before performing any flash operations (ROM or Magisk/SU-Stuff) check all partitions as marked - then do your flash work
i also miss some more partition that are available to other devices like EFS.
Did anyone know about another TWRP version or devs that are working on one?

custom roms do not boot up

hi there,
i used crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180606-riva-v4.3 but there were color problems i didnt know 2 fix so i decided 2 flash a new rom resp. a newer version but no custom rom boots up.
when it tries 2 boot is freezes at the boot screen, then screen switches off and nothing happens. i can go 2 fastboot and recovery.
sometimes it boots up but after a few seconds it freezes 2.
i tried different roms and recoveries but nothing works.
i foolishly wiped internal storage once but then i flashed the stock rom again which boots up. then i unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom recovery and a rom again but the same error is there (no booting up)
anyone got a solution for this problem? no unbricking suggestions plz
edit: im in the wrong thread i think. i wanted 2 post it in "Guides, News, & Discussion". cant delete it. sry for that
logs
so i managed 2 create logs while booting up.
1) https://pastebin.com/cgrX2DA1
2) https://pastebin.com/r7DmcN46
3) https://pastebin.com/0pwXyuys
4) https://pastebin.com/S41FG2SQ
1) is 1st part of the log while booting with no success to boot into the os.
2) is 2nd part of the log while booting with no success to boot into the os.
3) is 1st part of the log while booting with successful boot into the os.
4) is 2nd part of the log while booting with successful boot into the os.
i also tried 2 log "cat /proc/last_kmsg > /sdcard/last_kernel_message_log.txt"
and "dmesg > /sdcard/kernel_boot_log.txt" via terminal in linux but it only sais file or directory not found.
i hope sum1 can give me sum help now.
so i did this https://en.miui.com/thread-3921604-1-1.html but it doesnt help. as i expected.
any1? i can post more information if necessary. just say which and perhaps how ;D
cmon guys. i can impossibly b the only 1 who faces this problem.
i dont think its a hardware thing cause stock rom and android 7.1.2 (viper os) work. maybe a vendor problem? could flash another vendor img solve this problem? can sum1 send me his?
i got sum more logs after flashing rr 7.0:

Fastboot flash latest miui 10 stable using mi flash tool and use the rom after setting up. Then flash custom recovery and do a full wipe.
This works for most cases.

Well it worked for me.
Which custom rom you want to use?
well, it doesnt matter 2 me. the main thing is that it works =D rr, aex, crdroid..

Crdroid is my choice because aex and rr are very early builds. I like pixel experience but the devs not updating it so crdroid or havoc os.
Like i said use Xiaomi flash tool and flash miui 10 stable via fastboot method(there are 3 options in the bottom select flash all instead of flash and lock to avoid unlocking the bootloader again), don't flash anything else, setup and use the phone, flash recovery wipe all and format, install rom, don't flash gapps yet, boot into rom and see if its fixed.
Use vendor based recovery, if using batik recovery you have to flash batik recovery again after format.
This is my solution.

i flashed riva_global_images_V10.1.1.0.NCKMIFI_20181029.0000.00_7.1_global_f444c158ed.tgz using XIAOMI-TOOL-MiFlash-for-Linux-by-IceMan-master. im on linux mint 18.3. i have 4 options:
flash_all_lock.sh
flash_all_lock_crc.sh
flash_all_except_data_storage.sh
flash_all.sh
i chose flash_all.sh
i booted into the stock rom and set it up, enabled dev options and adb.
then i switched it off, went into bootloader, flashed twrp-3.2.3-0-riva.img via fastboot.
after that i entered twrp, flashed OrangeFox-R8.3-riva.zip and rebooted into recovery
i wiped everything except external sd and usb otg (i dont have these)
after a reboot intorecovery i formatted data then rebooted in recovery
i flahed crDroidAndroid-9.0-20181002-riva-v5.0.zip
then reboot into system
no success as i expected! wtf is wrong wtf. this cant b true!
but thank u very much for ur efforts! perhaps i would try 2 restore a vendor img from sum1 which rom does work. i know its a great demand but could u send me urs? ;D i dont know if there r sum personal info..
best regards
Don't give up there might be a solution.
Pray to God for some help.

Currently I am using Xiaomi.eu beta rom. You can check their website for all the features. Its smooth, stable and can update without needing to got the recovery:victory:
This should work for you because unlike other roms this is based on miui for riva. That means you will get updates till Xiaomi ditches support for riva.
I recommend you use this rom over the global rom until you fix the problem with your phone.
Some things missing:
Choice of region is limited( India is not available)
There is no custom kernel available for miui oreo as of now.
Magisk safetynet not passed
If you're going flash this rom you need to be on latest global beta fastboot rom and need a recovery that supports oreo base.
I use batik recovery base oreo.

dont u have 2 wait 2 weeks or so till bootloader is unlocked?
what exactly do u mean with won't boot up? bootloop? or stuck at boot logo?
after flashing a custom recovery, did u boot directly into the system or did u try 2 boot into recovery? sometimes the stock recovery overwrites the custom 1 when stock rom boots up
my problem is solved. i remembered that i made a full nandroid backup with twrp before i flashed a new rom and the problem appeared. so i restored everything i backed up with twrp (incl cust) and voila, rom booted up. and i can wipe system and data and flash every rom i wanna and it still boots up \o/
i really could have tried it earlier but i didnt think of this untill yesterday ;D
well, thx for ur efforts anyway buddy @NaAnBcEhEuL9A8K7
cheers

LineageOS on BLACKVIEW BV9900.

Hello.
I bought the BLACKVIEW BV9900 running Android 9.
I want to install the latest version of Lineageos with Android 10 on this phone, but first I want to know if my phone is compatible and if it works fine on it?
Is it also possible to root this phone?
Are there people on this forum who have already installed Lineageos and rooted this model?
Thanks for your feedback.

When i search on google "lineageOS BV9900" there are sites that offer tutorials to install it. But having also seen on XDA a person who could not boot LineageOS installed on this model, it is for this reason that I would like to have the opinion of other people who have already installed it.
i may give it a try i recently got twrp working on it so its a good a time as any to look around.
(gotta find a way to backup my stuff first tough as its still encrypted and twrp doesnt wanna play with that)
annoyed
I had also a lot of problems ...
I had to reinstall the stock ROM over SP Flash Tool because of bootloop
I then managed to install twrp
- by activating oem in android setting
- activating usb debug mode
- fastboot flashing unlock
- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (Took the bv9900 TWRP 331 found on the internet)
- Then tried to wipe, but I get an error that twrp is unable to mount partitions...
After searching I was able to get a workaround, a made a "Format Data"
- Install lineage img from twrp and reboot => got boot loop again !
- Then I reinstall only stock system partition through SP Flash Tool, and working again, but TWRP is away ???
Is the scatter File from the stock rom wrong ? How is it possible, that on flashing only the system partition, the recovery gets overwrited ???
