Hi everyone,
a quick question.
I am running a:
RN3 Pro SD Kenzo
8.0.6.0 Global Stable firmware ( Lollipop ), unofficial unlock
ZCX TWRP
... yeah, I am still on Lollipop. Reason is that this firmware, at the time of flashing, proved to be the most stable, so I kept it. It still is the best Xiaomi firmware I tested, out all of them, but now, I would like to test out Lineage OS
What would be the fastest way for me to flash the latest Lineage OS on this phone, while keeping the bootloader unlocked?
Can I just wipe the phone, add Lineage and GApps and flash it through recovery?
make sure you have downloaded latest firmware, LOS rom & gapps....next steps is backup your current rom & go flashing.
twrp > wipe > wipe dalvik, system, data & cache > install latest firmware > install LOS rom > install gapps > reboot > done
here is firmware you have needed
Thank you for taking the time to assist me.
Firmware link is not working, sadly.
... so, basically, if I get this right:
1. boot into my TWRP
2. wipe dalvik/system/data/cache
3. after wiping is done, flash/install the latest CM 14.1 firmware without rebooting, select wipe
4. after firmware finishes flashing/installing, flash/install LOS ( without rebooting ), select wipe
5. after that, flash/install GApps, select wipe
6. reboot, and that's it?
Any special steps I should take to keep my unofficial bootloader unlock, or that does not matter with LOS?

Do I flash latest stable or developer firmware in step 3?

sorry...find it here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/cm14-14-1-aosp-n-firmware-kenzo-kate-t3507789
that is right...follow my instructions & no need to worrie about bootloader
Thank you for the link. But, the firmware you provided the link for is only around 46MB. Is that right?
Thank you for the asistance. Everything is flashed, and working.
Additional step I had to do was to flash the camera fix from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...niversal-camera-binary-patch-kenzo-n-t3572779
... and done.
Now, as for the root access, only option I have available through Developer options is root through ADB. Do I download the root package from here:
https://download.lineageos.org/extras
... or is there another method for RN3Pro SD LineageOS?
Downloaded LOS root package. I am set
Hey
I'm a bit confused with the recovery thing going on with my SGP321. So tell me if i've understood the steps right:
Currently I have an unlocked bootloader and root on STOCK 5.1.1 and to go further from there:
1. I need to download twrp 3.0.2.0 for pollux https://dl.twrp.me/pollux/
2. Download lineage os for pollux: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-tablet-z/general/rom-cyanogenmod-14-t3496758
3. Download gapps http://opengapps.org/?arch=arm&api=7.1&variant=pico
4. copy lineageos.zip and gapps.zip to my tablet's SD card
5. flash twrp.img to BOOT(???) partition (with twrp app or fastboot flash boot twrp.img)?
6. reboot my device and it will reboot to twrp
7. wipe everything except sdcard
8. flash lineage.zip
9. flash gapps.zip
10. wipe cache
11. reboot
And we're in lineageos with twrp recovery (it's included in lineageos boot.img?)?
Mostly steps 5 and 6 are confusing. I understand that Xperia devices don't have a reserved recovery partitions like android devices usually have and we have to use "hacks" to bypass things.
Thank you in advance for all the help, I know it's an old device and the forum might be a bit quiet and this is basic stuff with xperia devices.
I'll reply to myself:
This method worked except that I had to press Vol+ and Vol- while booting after flashing twrp-pollux.img to boot partition.
Follow my tutorial : https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...de-tutorial-sony-xperia-tablet-z-lte-t3392831
The official TWRP recovery cannot be used for installing stock MIUI. Follow these steps to flash stock MIUI using an alternate recovery.
Step 1: Download latest MIUI rom (global or dev) from here.
Step 2: Download ZCX-TWRP from here.
Step 3: Flash ZCX-TWRP recovery via fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery ZCZ-TWRP.img
Step 4: Boot into ZCX-TWRP and hit the top left button (it says "install" in Chinese).
Step 5: Select the ROM you donwloaded previously and swipe at the bottom to flash.
See guys, we do not have an option to install stock C675 if everything is wiped. ( I mean to say something equivalent to EFS partition where imei resides ). Then what best can be done here is get your device working in Lineage and try some apn creation fixes which I'll post below for Volte. If it works, well and good. If it does not, we need to wait and swap sims till we get the official stock system.img and boot as well as recovery ramdisk out from a dev or Honor's side. They do not have it in their database and so its difficult for them too to install it from scratch as they need every rom partition and in the treble devices, its a different way than samsung's odin or Mi's flashtool.
Now follow the exact steps below which I did and got a working device :
Things to download :
Berkley TWRP Official, Lineage OS - [ 1. system.img from Garbage folder. (Latest) , 2. ROM zip to update the ROM to latest from TWRP later.] , Stock Recovery from XDA, Luk's Gapps.
1. Install Berkley Official TWRP latest one from XDA thread (with NO mod) through fastboot.
2. Always use the button combination (power+vol up) to boot to twrp as soon as it gets flashed and you remove the wire.
3. Once it boots, wipe data, system,cache. After that, go to "Format data" option in TWRP and format it. (Its different than wipe)
4. Restart in TWRP.
5. Go to fastboot mode from TWRP and flash stock recovery through fastboot by using ramdisk command.
6. Flash system.img which you downloaded through fastboot and then as soon as it gets installed, do not boot it and instead go to stock recovery from button combination and click on factory data reset. Once done, let your phone boot.
7. Once you boot, setup your phone and flash TWRP Image through fastboot again. (Do not wipe anything on that.)
8. Once flashed just boot to TWRP and flash Lineage 15.1 "zip" as well as gapps through ADB sideload or USB drive. Do it one by one, first OS zip and then reboot to TWRP and do the same process for Gapps zip. Just make sure, you do not wipe anywhere after step - 4.
9. If you follow the exact process, you get a working ROM.
Credits : I would like to thank Luke for Lineage 15.1 . If we are midway, we have no other option to go back to C675 and this is the only option mentioned above to get a Bug free device other than Volte and camera. For camera, there are stock ones available for Magisk.
