Steps to install

  • Install adb and fastboot on your workstation :
    • Debian/Ubuntu: apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
    • Fedora: yum install android-tools
    • Mageia: urpmi android-tools (included in upcoming relase of Mageia 5).
    • OpenSUSE: zypper in android-tools
    • Mac OS X: Install Homebrew from http://brew.sh/, then: brew install android-platform-tools
    • Windows: See http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_fastboot_intro for instructions
  • CWM ClockWorkMod Recovery tool is also included in the Sailfish kernel (hybris-boot.img, needs to be extracted from Sailfish image zip file) and can be installed during installation LegacyXperia cm-11.0 instead of installing LegacyXperia kernel.
  • You may follow the instructions at https://github.com/LegacyXperia/Wiki/wiki/Installing-Lollipop#step-1-prepare-sd-card to prepare the sdcard for installation of Sailfish. In the end you need to have two partitions on sdcard, partition 1 FAT32 formatted and partition 2 ext4 formatted (preferably at least 4GB, will contain Sailfish and user data, absolute minimum 1 GB). You may use whatever tool you want for repartitioning the sdcard, easiest on pc with memory card reader.
  • If you did not already install Sailfish kernel during LegacyXperia cm-11.0 installation then you now need to extract hybris-boot.img from Sailfish image zip file and install it using fastboot following the procedure described in the LegacyXperia cm-11.0 installation instructions.
