Hello, thanks for your interest in this project! |
Thank you for providing this. :) I could try, Its my main phone so I need to be a bit careful. Iḿ already on Lineage 19.1 so things might work a little different. Instructions would be good. Iḿ on manjaro or arm64 Sonoma mac. |
Hey, the installer will do a clean install with a factory reset, so you should backup everything you want to keep. The easiest way to test it is to use the linux executable and put the config file from the PR to the directory the executable is running from. The installer will pick this up and support your device. Alternatively, you could do the python setup with poetry and run the installer from there. Let me know if you need any help :) |
I flashed manually yesterday as I dont want a factory reset. |
I don't think so: if LOS team didn't allow Android versions changes directly from their updater, it's because it isn't without risk. The success of dirty flashing highly depends on the device and android version, and there is no data for this. |
It is the official strategy for an upgrade from say 19. to 20. https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/apollon/upgrade/variant1/ Maybe a different technical reason why its not done from the internal updater. If theres no checkbox for "already on lineage" the average user, this installer is aimed at, would be stuck. |
This guide is supposed to work with LOS recovery, which is not currently supported by OpenAndroidInstaller (and probably not for a long time, since it does not support all |
Ah I see, didn't noticed the different recovery. At least for this specific case I can report that flashing went successful without any losses. |
@anon1892 I never do dirty flashes, since I had bad experiences with it and I don't think it is encouraged at all. But once we scope the "Advanced Mode", we could add an option to skip factory resets and partition wipes to enable dirty flashes.
@BKLronin You mean dirty flashing, right? Also, do you still see an option to test the config with your device? :) |
You could open an Issue to request options to upgrade Android versions and/or dirty flash :) this way it is not lost in this device specific issue and I can add it to the road map. |
I´m afraid not at the moment but I can offer to add devices in the future If I get a new one or lost device etc. I have a BV6000 that is free for testing but its not very popular or widespread. |
