Install LineageOS on jflteatt

Basic requirements

Important: Please read through the instructions at least once before actually following them, so as to avoid any problems due to any missed steps!

Make sure your computer has adb. Setup instructions can be found here.
Enable USB debugging on your device.

Special requirements

Warning: Your device must be on bootloader version I337UCUAMDB / I337UCUAMDL , otherwise the instructions found in this page will not work. The current bootloader version can be checked by running the command getprop ro.bootloader in a terminal app or an adb shell from a command prompt (on Windows) or terminal (on Linux or macOS) window.

Rooting your device

Important: The device must be rooted before proceeding any further.

Download TowelRoot from here.
1. Click the large lambda symbol to download the apk.
2. Install and run the apk to achieve root.

Installing a custom recovery using `dd`

Download a custom recovery - you can download Lineage Recovery. Simply download the latest recovery file, named something like lineage-17.1-20200702-recovery-jflteatt.img.
Place the recovery image file on the root of /sdcard:
- Using adb: adb push <recovery_filename>.img /sdcard/<recovery_filename>.img
Tip: The file may not be named identically to what stands in this command, so adjust accordingly.
- You can use any method you are comfortable with. adb is universal across all devices, and works both in Android and recovery mode, providing USB debugging is enabled.
Now, open an adb shell from a command prompt (on Windows) or terminal (on Linux or macOS) window. In that shell, type the following commands:
```
su
dd if=/sdcard/<recovery_filename>.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
```
Reboot into recovery.
- From the same shell, type the following command:
```
reboot recovery
```

Installing LineageOS from recovery

Download the LineageOS installation package that you would like to install or build the package yourself.
- Optionally, download additional application packages such as Google Apps (use the arm architecture).
If you are not in recovery, reboot into recovery:
- With the device powered off, hold Home + Volume Up + Power.
Now tap Factory Reset, then Format data / factory reset and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption and delete all files stored in the internal storage, as well as format your cache partition (if you have one).
Return to the main menu.
Sideload the LineageOS .zip package:
- On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.
- On the host machine, sideload the package using: adb sideload filename.zip
(Optionally): If you want to install any additional add-ons, repeat the sideload steps above for those packages in sequence.

Note: If you want Google Apps on your device, you must follow this step before booting into LineageOS for the first time!
Once you have installed everything successfully, click the back arrow in the top left of the screen, then “Reboot system now”.

Warning: Depending on which recovery you use, you may be prompted to install additional apps and services. We strongly advise you to opt out of installing these, as they may cause your device to bootloop, as well as attempt to access or corrupt your data.
