[Q] LineageOS for Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195 - serranoltexx)

There seems to be no official LineageOS support for the Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195 - serranoltexx) any longer. The according download pages have been removed from lineageos.org, so that one cannot even download the last official version.
Does anybody know whether these versions are available somewhere else?
What about the versions on cyanogenmods.org?
Is that site reputable?
Can the versions on this site be used to upgrade a device that has an an official version from lineageos.org installed?
So far, on lineageos.org there was only version 14.x available, cyanogenmods.org also provides versions 15 and 16. Would you recommend these versions? Can one keep settings and user data when upgrading from version 14 to 15 or 16?
Thanks in advance!
I have the same question.

Root OneUI 3.0

Is there a guide for rooting oneui 3.0, i´m asking this question because oneui 2.x has android 10
Did you found solution to root android 11?
I know for android 10 but not for 11.
I manage to root tricking the lz4 files which is the new type of extension in Android and for this you can not root in a normal way. I followed this guide
Fix Oreo Firmware Installation Issue in Odin for Samsung Devices - DroidViews
Android Oreo has finally made its way to Samsung's latest S series flagships, the Galaxy S8 and S8+. The Oreo update brings with it the usual Android Oreo features such as Picture-in-Picture, redesigned Settings app, etc. It also brings with it Samsung Experience 9.0 which is but a fancier name…
www.droidviews.com
After having the 4 stock files modified without lz4 you must flash them with Odin.
After you take the modified AP file and patch it with Magisk.
Then you flash again stock using the patched AP file and the rest of modified files but you must not select autoreboot in Odin. When the flashing is done you must exit download mode and imediatelly enter in Recovery mod but better use this guide

Trying to downgrade to Android 8 or preferably 7 with Odin

I have long tried to downgrade my phone SM-G955F to Android 8 or 7.
I have tried many different firmwares but they all seem to fail on installing the new bootloader. I can always recover back to Android 9 using a collection of files called AP_G955FXXUCDUD1_CL21427293_QB39365969_REV00_user_low_ship_meta_OS9.tar.md5
Can anyone point me in the right direction for a ROM running android 8 or 7 that I can root.
Essentially I do not care if it is stock rom as long as I can root the device. I have successfully rooted my devices running android 9 using magisk but the essence is that I need to run android 8 or 7 and being able to use google chrome as a browser.
Any help is much appreciated
Best regards,
Erik
I thought I might have answered my own question. So in order to help other in the same situation I will post my findings.
Looking at related posts on XDA Dev Forum I found the following article, that seem to fit my needs.

So I downloaded the zip file and unpacked it in hopes of finding files compatible with Odin. But they were not. So what I did was install my android 9 OS that I found that was working and then rooted it using TWRP and Magisk, which is quite simple.
Then I found this article:

Hi,
1) Download the .zip file of the light ROM : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/s8-s8-nougat-01-jan-2020-v30-lightrom.3636154/
Then magisk.zip, search it on the internet.
2) Flash the ROM via a custom recovery
3) Then flash magisk.zip
4) Reboot
It will work for sure with Nougat or Oreo, with any Binary number.
You can downgrade with a custom ROM, not stock.
Lastly don't use Odin but a custom recovery !

Thank you so much!
I will try that. I had found an older phone lying around running stock Oreo, that I rooted.

can't flash with odin even though bootloader being unlocked

i've got an a50 that i want to install TWRP on so i won't have to use the abomination that download mode is. i've unlocked bootloader, yet when i try to flash the TWRP .tar in odin it fails and the phone gives the following error code: "Only officially released binaries are allowed to be flashed(RECOVERY)"
although this is the first time i try flashing stuff on a samsung so you can consider me a newbie, i've got experience with fastboot on others so it must be something i glanced over.
cuz see, when i unlock the bootloader of other phones they let me flash onto them, unlike this one. if you could redirect me to a post with a solution or something that would be very much appreciated!
If you are on the latest official build, then The latest official build (last official Update from samsung) won't allow the twrp to be installed.
Use previous build to install twrp.

This remembers me on my SM-A202F Adventure...
Seems "buggy" Bootloaders... in my case sboot.bin as SM-A202F Exynos...
I was able to fix this "phenomenon" with other Firmware...

can you point me to a site for downloading the october build? furthermore, my plans are to do whatever it takes to get twrp onto it and just flash the unofficial a50 port of lineageos (+official gapps) and debloat with the permission of the owner of the phone. any problems to look at for in the future (seeing that you're a senior here)?
If SM-A505F is your device...
Look here for official collection of Firmware:
Samsung Galaxy A50 Firmware Download SM-A505F Free Download
Samsung Galaxy A50 Firmware Download SM-A505F Free Download ⭐ Official and fast update ⭐ Max speed and free download ⭐ Best Samsung Galaxy website
samfw.com
Otherwise replace SM-A505F with your Model Name...
Best Regards

You can proceed.
The problems you may get with FOD, VoLTE. Some operators like Jio completely depend on volte . Without volte we can not make calls and receive messages. Only internet Anwould work.
No aosp rom able to make work volte. For now, volte works only on oneui roms for a50.

so if i'm reading this correctly, the device won't be able to make calls if i don't use oneui?
