Hello all, I would like ask about OEM Unlock on SM-G960F, because in Developer Mode I haven't "OEM Unlock" option but I would like flash custom rom.
Please tell me is it possible flash LineageOS 17.1 or 18.1 if I have Exynos on my Galaxy S9?
By the way, stock rom is better than LineageOS for you?
Regards!

install the custom recovery, i will help you after with installing Custom ROM, and actually One Ui is also very amazing but Lineage OS has it's own perks so yup.
One problem now, on this video you can see "OEM Unlock" but I haven't this option on my S9 :/

Hey! I will get this device on this Sunday, I am planning to install Validus Oreo. I will be sure to update baseband to 1.76 and to enable Volte on stock. Anything else?
I heard that now the device will not get OTA, so will I be able to update my new device directly? Or I need to flash ROM manually. It's bootloader is locked.

Part I : Nothing else.
Part II : You will get OTA update notification automatically as you connect the phone to Internet, you don't have to manually flash stock rom updates.
And you need to unlock your bootloader.

For 86006 error
Please be patient, the error is reported to devs and they are working on it.
The error is caused as of errors with sync with china servers.
If you try to fix this on your own you can not.
If you have Made in India mark on your phone, it signifies you have this error.

No. If you bought from Flipkart or Mi and you got non made in India model (which can be verified by seeing the rear of box) then it means you won't face any 86006 error. However it is standard for you to go through 360 hours of time to unlock bootloader.

Due to vendor abuse (vendors use to unlock and install software crap) they added 360 hours waiting policy. It can't be skipped I searched for the same multiple times.

Guys, currently I'm on October 1st, 2018 Security Patch. I have the system image of April 1st, 2018 for flashing through fastboot, both android 8.0.0.
If I flash it, will my phone get stuck in bootloop or will it work?
My last phone got hardbricked because I unintentionally flashed android 6 Marshmallow after updating to Nougat, so now I'm afraid of hardbricking my new smartphone just because of the security patch.
Please someone give me an advise. (If there would be a link for a system image of october 2018 I'd appreciate haha)
My device was on Oct security before I unlocked it, I am now on the stock April patch firmware with no issues. However, I wish to relock my bootloader now and this is not possible because there is no later firmware than April available. When trying to lock, it fails with security downgrade.

Sorry, he didn't share on the forum yet, however it's in his afh. He took from the last link I shared here.
If you pay attention to the image below, which is my smartphone settings, the version has 2 "S", and it's the stock one. I've never unlocked this phone. So it's okay, the october patch has the second S.

I see, so the other S could be something with the new security patch. Unless we have different Z2p. Mine is UK one, but I am sure I read somewhere that there is only one line of firmware for this device, unlike my G5 plus before this that had several versions of the G5 plus.
Yours is Brazil retail mine is Vodafone UK which is a different software Chanel. But the device is same I am sure.

It looks like 8.1 is the latest OEM release for that device.
Your only option to run a newer version of Android is with a custom ROM or a GSI. However, all the development I see is for the J200/J210, not the S260.

If there is no development available, the lack of a custom recovery makes things difficult.
Can you confirm whether your device is a SM-J260 or -S260? Settings > About should tell you; the model number is also printed on the back but can be hard to read
