This Root method use Custom Channel Update for Magisk v19.3 by patching to AP tar file. Magisk v19.3 worked stable on Galaxy A50s. As we know latest Magisk version v20.x did not work for Galaxy A50s with random bootloop problem. We can not install Magisk v19.3 normally wihout TWRP recovery, but with Custom Channel Update make it possible. Follow these steps:

5. In Magisk Manager: Install → Install → Select and Patch a File

Select Wipe data / Factory reset. Select Reboot to bootloader. Connect the phone to PC using USB Cable.

Important: check “Auto Reboot” and "F. Reset time" only in Options!

10. Magisk is now successfully flashed to your device!

11. After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. It need more time and patient.

12. Connect the phone to Internet, if you see Magisk Manager installed, you must uninstall it.* Then Copy Magisk Manager apk file to your phone and install it.

13. Open Magisk Manager. It will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.

About LineageOS

LineageOS is a free and open-source operating system for set-top boxes, smartphones and tablet computers, based on the Android mobile platform. It is the successor to the custom ROM CyanogenMod, from which it was forked in December 2016 when Cyanogen Inc. announced it was discontinuing development and shut down the infrastructure behind the project. Since Cyanogen Inc. retained the rights to the Cyanogen name, the project rebranded its fork as LineageOS.

LineageOS was officially launched on December 24, 2016, with the source code available on GitHub. Since that time, LineageOS development builds now cover more than 185 phone models with over 1.9 million active installs,having doubled its user base in the month February–March 2017 And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review.

Installation procedure

Note - I don't recommend to flash any other custom kernels on this, just to avoid issues.

1. Download Rom.zip , twrp.img & vbmeta.img

2. power off your phone boot in to bootloader mode and flash twrp

3. Boot in to Twrp

4. Format data by typing yes

5. Wipe everything

6. Flash rom.zip

7. Now tap on reboot and check your current active slot.

Example - if twrp shows current active slot A change to B if B change to A

8. Tap on reboot and tap on bootloader ( this will reboots your phone to bootloder mode )

9. Now open cmd in pc flash vbmeta using this command

for slot-a > fastboot flash vbmeta_a --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img

for slot-b> fastboot flash vbmeta_b --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img

( thanks to @singhnsk for this step )

13. now type fastboot reboot

and wait for 3 min rom will boot up

Is there any way to root this?

I've tried to extract the payload from lineage-18.0-20201114-UNOFFICIAL-Starlord.zip and patched boot.img with magisk (8.0.3).

This ends in a bootloop.

Installing TWRP and then install Magsik 21.1.zip ends in a recovery bootloop. Fixing with TWRP dosen't fixed it.

EDIT: I fixed it with the beta Magisk channel... Now its rooted. THX for the awsom work for this Rom...

Hello Guys,

I am new here, but I followed the developement of LineageOS for Nokia devices for a while now.

I have a Nokia 6.2 in daily use and would like to upgrade to LineageOS.

Are there any groundbreaking features missing and roadblocks to watch out for?

I read in some build(I think it was LineageOS 17 for Nokia 6.2), that the camera was not working, so I wanted to ask, if this is the case here as well, or just not listed in the features?

I am thankful for any answers :)

Three questions:

1) Is there anything compared with the stock ROM which does explicitely not work?

2) Is it multi-lingual? I would be using it in German.

3) Which

vbmeta

to download for this Android 11 ROM? Following the link you provided which leads to Soruceforge, there is only vbmeta for Android 9 (PIE) and 10 (TEN).

[Magisk] Timmmmaaahh!:
Hey there!

Before making a new thread, please search the forum first. You should check out the subsection dedicated to the Realme X2 pro. And you appear to be in luck! One of our most respected recovery devs, [MENTION=4712355]mauronofrio[/MENTION], is working on TWRP for you guys.

Also note that Magisk is a universal solution and therefore doesn't need specific device support. If TWRP works the way it should (that mainly depends on the manufacturer of the device), Magisk will flash just fine.

Enjoy your brand new device!

I tested now and I found Google Services - are GApps included? I installed lineageos in this build to AVOID this. Or did I make something wrong?
[Nokia 7.2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xe500linux:
Thanks, saved me some time. Defeats the entire purpose for me.
[Nokia 7.2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] overclockA:
I wrote to Raghu varma for the same question.

Technically it seems to not be that simple - if lineage 17.1 has been compiled without gapps and the build process was done by using private keys, flashing gapps would brick the device or the lineageos installation.

So Raghu varma compiled the version with gapps included to avoid this.

So I took his scripts from github and I built lineageos 17.1 on my own (with private keys and without gapps as I don't think about flashing them afterwards) - this worked fine.

Now I couldn't find his scripts for Daredevil on his github profile anymore - maybe they will come back for the 7.2 build process.

But when I click forgot Pattern & keyed in my Google Username and password, it showed "invalid username or password"

Can you advise how I should proceed?

By the way I have also locked the phone from the "Find Your Phone" feature. But it doesn't allow me to replace a new passcode, due to the phone is already locked.

I found a link to a list of programmers. If you see your phone here, which I didn't (but try ctrl-f the processor, that should be in the filename, it's a good bet you'll be able to find it. As far as I know, my phone's MSM8998 does not have a leaked programmer. It's not as universally applicable as a lot of guides make it seem. If you do have the programmer and correct patches, they allow arbitrary read/write to a phone in edl mode. It's a major security backdoor, but very useful for users like us too. However, neither users like us, nor malicious agents are thought very highly of by American phone manufacturers.
