Created Yaml with right text instructions for greatlte

Yet TODO : create the image for models with Bixby buttons on reboot from download step

Did not test the unlock bootloader

Hey, thank you for your contribution! The config looks great so far!

Luckily, Samsung devices don't need the bootloader to be unlocked. At least for all Samsung devices I own, directly booting into download mode and flashing the recovery was fine. Did you have a different experience?

Yes I think I did it 3 years ago on my greatlte , and for sure on Series10 like galaxy 10e 👍

  • From within the Developer options menu, enable OEM unlock.
  • hold Volume Down + Bixby and connect USB cable to PC
  • Now, click the button that the onscren instructions coorelate to “Continue” and/or “Unlock Bootloader”.

then you have to go through stock Rom to enable adb usb and then the GUI could carry on ..

I guess you could put greatlte on "testing" for now

Great! I would merge that soon :)

Would you also add the file to the Supported devices section of the README?
