These are some idioms of English.
Eg if you are using "not only" in a sentence then there must be "but also" in that sentence.
Same way "no sooner", "than" etc etc.

Why we use did before I?
Mostly we are using did do before the subject in question.
Then what about No sooner I did opened? Please clear me.

The sentence existed with conjunction. Those rules we have to follow.
1. No sooner followed by than.
2. Scarcely followed by when.
3. Hardly followed by when.
1. No sooner followed by than.
2. Scarcely followed by when.
3. Hardly followed by when.

Should be "then" Because than signifies comparison.

Does not follow well with 'than', but seems correct with 'then'.

When the sentence starts with 'no sooner' we use then?

I think both A and B are wrong because it's supposed to be no sooner had. Then it's past participle.

Can we use "No sooner then I opened the door" instead of "No sooner did I open the door"?
