Real noob here

Hi guys, I'm new here and I want to flash LineageOS to my X Style. I cant seem to find any tutorial or "How to" thread... Can any of you guys guide me a little? I've downloaded twrp and the lineageos rom to my pc but have no idea on how to even begin! Thank you!
[X Style (Pure) General] jonpagecr:
hi, I had installed the latest LOS 15.1 over a rooted stock Nougat, using the latest TWRP, but now I have a Bootloop.

Edit:

flashed back the stock Nougat following the steps here, and is working correctly.

[X Style (Pure) General] Unistar:
I am in a bit of a pickle, after getting everything to work and stop bootlooping on my nougat updated phone (correct partitions/roms (from this thread)/recovery (twrp 3.2.2.0 official)/sources) I can't get cellular data to work at all on any roms I've tried. All either say No Sim or No service (not that they ever seem to try to look for service).

From those linked I tried their respective builds of:

LOS 14.1

Nuclearom

AOSPE

Ressurection Remix (the one bundled with magisk)

All of them have the same problem on both my T-Mobile and Verizon sims.

Edit: Also whenever I tell the phone to shut down it goes to the bootloader, and whenever I tell the bootloader to shut off it still goes back to the bootloader. It seems to never truly shut down.
[X Style (Pure) General] stevejohnson42:
My suggestion -- find the thread ( if and only if you have the right variant ) to go to N stock , do that , take the one update , then install TWRP and then go back and try again .. My experience was mainly NuclearROM and official TWRP as a good custom ROM.

I have done this a few times when my flashoholic attempts seem to make the phone start doing crazy things -- sometimes a fresh start helps

this will wipe all the internal memory - so , if you have anything stored there - make a backup first

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] soralz:
Does Mi A1 supports Type-C audio output? Just bought a converter Type-C to 3.5mm and it doesn't work. But according to this one his earphone does work. Any idea? Or anyone tried with Type-C converter or other Type-C earphones?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxfAig8e2f4
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] invertedchicken:
I recently researched Type-C audio adapters as a possible way to get rid of the hissing sound. I read a lot of product reviews and it seems that most of the adapters do

not

work properly on android phones.

This is understandable because right now there is not enough demand (Android phones without headphone jacks are just coming out, and mostly they bring adapters out of the box).

My conclusion is that you have to wait at least another 3 months for good & proven adapters to come out. I assume there is quite some demand from Mi A1 users becasue of the hissing issue, so there will likely be good adapters for our phone in the future.

I strongly assume that Type-C audio output is supported because the Mi A1 is running stock android, which should have native supports given that phones without headphone jacks are becoming mainstream. But I am just guessing.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] invertedchicken:
I found this under developer options. You can disable audio output via USB - which indicates that it is enabled by default (i.e. Type-C audio should be supported by the OS). No guarantees though.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] gie62001:
Mi A1 does support audio output from type C port and I've been listening to music with my zorloo Z:ero headphones from day one using Meenova USB type C adapter.

Don't remember which adapter I got as Meenova were kind and sent me usb type C adapter back in 2016 to test my headphones on my LG G5. By the way Z:ero headphones have micro usb type plug so not sure if it changes anything. And they said that Not all micro-usb to usb-c adapter works, it has to be built for usb2.0 host operation.

Edit: not sure where half of my post gone but try and search for 3.5 mm to type C adapter that works with other type C phones and hopefully it should work with A1

i tested it with chord mojo device and it worked, but then, chord mojo standalone costs twice as much as the phone lol
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] gie62001:
Nope never experienced any hissing. Neither on Nougat nor on Oreo. It might be because the headphones are quite of good quality or the way sound is routed via USB type C port. Or maybe I'm just deaf and can't hear any hissing noise. Or maybe I'm just lucky and my unit doesn't have such problem. I've tried other headphones with 3.5 mm jack and don't really notice much/any hissing too.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] pradeepd142:
It has a 3.5 mm port then why do you want c type
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] alkesh95:
Theres a hissing sound due to amplifier connected to 3.5 mm jack. That's why.

Hi,

I have i747 that has a clockworkmod recovery. How do I erase as much as possible of everything so that my phone is as clean as possible before I install a new ROM on galaxy s3?

I tried to factory reset phone, did all the 'delete/erase' options within clockworkmod recovery (except advanced section) and yet I see some residual folders from the previous installation. is there a way to completely erase wipe out everything without bricking the phone?

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
You should really flash TWRP recovery before proceeding. CWM hasn't been maintained or updated in a long time. It is likely to give you problems flashing anything new.

To completely blank a phone in TWRP I use Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Dalvik, Cache, System, Data. Followed by Wipe -> Format Data then type "yes" to confirm; always a good idea if you're switching between Touchwiz and AOSP in particular. That will leave you with totally blank internal storage. You'll have to flash a ROM from an external SD, or load a ROM zip over USB while booted in recovery because internal storage will be wiped clean.

It might be a good idea to look into what bootloader and modem you're running too. If you're still using CWM, you might be on pretty old firmware that isn't going to work right with newer roms. Just don't start flashing bootloaders/modems willy-nilly. Samsung made this phone kind of easy to hard brick on the newer firmwares. There's a right way to update it, if you find you have to.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] user-747:
Thanks so much for providing such a detailed answer!! You make many very good points!!

Just to reflect on those...

1) Yes, CWM recovery has not been updated for about 2-3 years. I have 6.0.4.7 version. Where do I check how stale it really is? I tried googling for CWM recovery and saw tons of links with everyone talking about CWM but ZERO sites with actual CWM .zip or .img file

2) I did 'adb bugreport' and was able to find information on my bootloader and a modem:

Bootloader: I747UCUEMJB

Radio: I747UCUEMJB

I am not too sure for what I would need to use this information for though

3) when completely blanking the phone (doing all those wipe/erase actions you mentioned), would that erase the recovery as well or is recovery is kept on a some other partition that never gets touched

4) When installing TWRP over CWM, would TWRP override CWM or install side to side along with CWM?

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
The will need to run an updated bootloader and modem before installing the latest custom roms.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
3 - Those wipes will just blank /system, /data and other partitions that would affect a rom. More critical areas like bootloader, modem, and recovery will remain untouched and intact.

4 - TWRP will overwrite CWM in the /recovery partition. They can't coexist.

2 - If you're comfortable with Odin, this thread might be the easiest and safest way to get updated. The Odin tar will get you up to NE4 firmware that should work with all the newest roms. Before modding, you could check for updates a few times in that stock rom. There should be two, one from NE4 to NJ1, and one NJ1 to NJ2. NJ2 is the newest and almost certainly last update for the i747.

If you don't like using Odin, there are recovery flashable zips to update the firmware for i747 too. You just have to be very careful how you go about it or you can brick the phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] user-747:
I was able to install the most recent octos just a few days ago with my stale configuration: old bootloader and old cwm recovery. My phone i747 currently has nougat.

When you speak of 'latest roms' what exactly do you have in mind?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] user-747:
I am actually quite familiar with Odin. I used to root i747 with it. Then I wanted to update to the latest official rom and ironically soft-bricked the phone to the point where it was dead...nothing worked at all. If I remember correctly I wrote i9305 Rom to i747 phone. Then I found out that during boot the phone internally still scans through sd card and was able to take advantage of that to install recovery and consequently cyanogenmod os. I remember tons of Adb done. Since then the phone regained all functionality and now works very smooth with freshly installed octos. However, I see I am missing some hard drive space ie unusually large usage by octos. This makes me wonder if the 'bad original partition + bootloader +modem' are still in there but not invoked for some reason and the explanation behind my what appears to be successful installs is working os, etc are written to a separate partition which is now invoked. Is this hypothesis legit or not real? Is it at all possible that my cwm somehow is installed on a partition that is delete-able or that cannot be a possibility and all recovery goes into write-protected space?

And while we are in this topic, what are the obvious advantages of a newer boot loader if I can still install whatever custom roms?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Sometimes, a phone will not display the correct imei with the latest custom ROM unless the phone is running the most recent bootloader and modem for the particular phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] user-747:
Thanks! Good to know.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
I think this phone only has a 12 GB data partition. About 1.5 GB is reserved for /system, another 1 GB for /cache, and there are a host of other partitions. That's some of your used space. The rest could be cruft from old installs left over in userdata that a standard wipe of /data didn't get unless you format internal storage.

If what you have is working for you, then I wouldn't touch bootloader and modem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] user-747:
Thanks for the insight!

I went ahead and updated by recovery to TWRP via Odin just a few minutes ago...

I see Under Advanced Wipe another option for Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Internal Storage. Should I also wipe out internal storage? What is it for anyway? Whats the difference between 'internal storage' and 'system'?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
Honestly I'm not 100% sure what the Internal Storage wipe does under Advanced Wipe, and I don't feel like making then restoring a backup right now just to test it ;). I never use it. If I had to guess, I bet it wipes /data and possibly a few other partitions without preserving user files in /data/media/0, see below, but don't know that. It certainly won't blank the whole internal storage; some areas like recovery, modem, and aboot are far too important and won't be touched.

Here's what I can tell you. Doing Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> system, data, cache, dalvik is typically good enough for flashing a new rom (switching from Touchwiz to AOSP can require some additional care), some would even say overkill the way rom installers are scripted today, but old habits die hard. However, Advanced Wipe -> Data will wipe /data without wiping /data/media. Since android got multi-user support, files reported to be in /sdcard are actually stored in /data/media/0 for the primary user, so that means that downloads, pictures, user app files and things like that can be left behind by just wiping data since /data/media is left untouched. It is useful if you don't want to shuffle your files off then back on the device to flash something new or if you're using a device without an external SD and have a rom zip stored on device in /sdcard, but it leaves stuff behind if you're looking for a clean start.

To completely blank /data pick Wipe -> Format Data and TWRP will format /data and leave nothing behind, not even /data/media like the normal Advanced Wipe -> Data preserves. Just make sure you're prepared for the phone storage to be blank. You'll have to flash from external SD or push files from a computer over usb. TWRP does automatically start up mtp and adb shortly after booting if you need to push files over usb.

/system is a partition of special reserved space just for the rom and system apps and not user files. It is usually mounted read only when booted up normally to keep us from messing anything important up. I hope this helps and doesn't just muddy the waters more.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] user-747:
Thanks!

I will try to do wipe and reinstall Rom tonight and will update this thread. While we are in this topic, when flashing twrp via Odin in phone's download mode, I noticed that it says: Qualcomm secureboot: enabled. Does this mean my bootloader is locked?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jason2678:
No, the i747 never had a locked bootloader. You couldn't boot unsigned stuff like CWM, TWRP, or octos if it did.

Thanks!
