15.1.c.1.17
sorry wrong upload
update: 15.1.c.2.8
you can download this just 34mb, i just remove the system, flash this with flashtool, after that flash the boot.img from cm11, but in order to flash cm11 you must edit the updater script

delete that selected text

2nd..its not mine...
the c1905 is sony's stock firmware unedited...
and cm11 is by ron....u should ask there for bug...
i just gave guide how to get cm11 work in dual thats all..
in c1904/c1905 both can be swapped their internal with external[there are guides search in xperia m threads]
but cm11 is same as dual fw...[u cant move apps to sd without using gl2sd and link2sd]

It only includes the dependencies of CM. There's no need to flash the whole thing as it will get replaced with CM.

well, is possible to tell me if at least I can make calls and text with this 36mb firmware?...

Let me see if I get it: this is a normal firmware, but only with the basic stuff like call, text, and thats it,... right?

1- This is needed because CM11 (That you're going to flash) is based on Xperia M firmware.
So you have to this to be able to use sim and wifi on your Xperia M Dual
2- What CM means? How you are supposed to flash it if you don't know what does it mean !?
Check here the official website: CyanogenMod
3- Yes you can make call and text after you flash (This 36MB firmware) then flash CM rom.

Well, answering to number 2: I always root phones when needed, but obviously I don't know everything and / or some expressions
But thanks for help!
