                @unrealb2 For Windows there is Sony's official Flash tool.

                For Linux I found XperiFirm to download Sony firmware. But I didn't figure out how to flash it yet.

                  UPDATE
                  I got it fixed! πŸ™‚

                  It seems to be very critical which version of Sony's OEM binaries you use:

                  Software binaries for AOSP Nougat (Android 7.1) – Kernel 4.4 – Loire
                  SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_5.7_r1_v08_loire.img
                  β†’ Ubuntu Touch works as expected

                  Software binaries for AOSP Oreo (Android 8.1) – Kernel 4.4 – Loire (v16)
                  SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android_8.1.6.4_r1_v16_loire.img
                  β†’ Stuck on Sony boot screen

                  Software binaries for AOSP Oreo (Android 8.0) – Kernel 4.4 – Loire
                  SW_binaries_for_Xperia_Android_8.0.5.7_r1_v10_loire.img
                  β†’ All these issues, that I had …

                  The device port post mentions the first two versions as functional.
                  Personally I chose the 8.0 version, because it matched the installed Android version beautifully and also the installer asked for Android 8.0 being installed. Obviously I did not know, what I was doing …

                  Is this also true for you, @unrealb2?

                        @drikk Do you currently use ubuntu touch on your xperia or are you back on android? I was wondering if you fixed your slow or laggy UT because i have a nexus 7, and it also is slow. But the original android oem was also slow. So im afraid its just the hardware.

                          @unrealb2 I use Ubuntu Touch now.
                          The extreme slowness was caused by the wrong OEM binaries I used. It really was unusable then.
                          Now it isn't completely smooth either, but it is unproblematic and fine by me.
