Unclear instructions for installing LineageOs 19.1 - Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Questions & Answers

Hello,
I have a xz2c with Lineageos17.1 and would like to upgrade it to 19.1
The upgrade instructions (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/xz2c/upgrade) seems to be for lineageos18.1 (at least in the title), but the description mentions android 10.
Should I be able to follow the instruction with lineageos 17.1?
Or do the instruction refer to the latest official android 10 image? (In this case, where can I find one?)
I am actually not interested in preserving the current environment, so I am willing to do a clean install too.
The wiki, again, mentions android 10 (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/xz2c/install), and I am not sure if it with "If the vendor provided multiple updates for that version, e.g. security updates, make sure you are on the latest" it is intended that I should install the latest official android 10 version of the phone manufacturer.

So I am assuming I need to upgrade to the official Android 10 version of SONY.
As I installed LineageOS 17 before this was available, and do not have the possibility to automatically update my phone, I've searched a little bit what I can do.
I found the tool xperifim (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-xperifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-v5-6-5.2834142/), which lets me downloads the rom, but I do not know the CID of my phone.
The official guidelines of SONY are specific for the SONY ROM, does anyone know how to query it from LineageOS, adb, fastboot or with another tool?
Or better yet: is it relevant?
I just want to install the newer LineageOS image after all.

Install LineageOs 18.1 on a Samsung Galaxy S10e running Android 12

Hi all.
I already asked this question on the Samsung S10e forum without luck. I hope to find some help here, please be patient with me
I have a Samsung Galaxy S10e, model SM-G970F/DS, that is currently running Samsung's official Android 12. LineageOS 18.1 install documentation tells me that Android 10 or 11 is required to proceed with the installation. I don't think it is possible downgrade the phone to Android 11 (correct me if I'm wrong).
What do I risk if I attempt the LineageOS 18.1 installation? How "unbrickable" is this device?
It would be safer to install this LineageOS 19 beta https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...l-you-for-s10e-s10-s10-s10-5g-exynos.4346535/ ?
Thanks in advance for any hint!
I'm long gone from Samsung, but downgrading should be possible with Odin. Quick Google search gave me this guide: https://www.droidwin.com/downgrade-samsung-one-ui-4-0-to-one-ui-3-1/
I recommend using Sammobile for rom download. Should get you started.
Your other questions I have no answer.

EDIT: Double post, forum seemed to have some difficulties

Lineageos 19 for Oneplus 7t

Hi
I am currently using a oneplus 5t with lineageos and would really like to upgrade to my Oneplus 7t. I would like to use Lineageos19 on it, but on the official website, there is only lineageos18. Is there a newer version somewhere available?
I would also consider building it myself, but I dont know how to do that. I looked for guides online, but i couldnt find a recent one.
I have been studying computer science since 2017, so I do know a bit about coding but I havent built a custom rom myself
Thanks for your help.
yes you can try to upgrade OnePlus7T with LineageOS.
Or check out these best android os for PC if LineageOS 19 is not available.
Thats not really an answer to my question. I know I can install lineageos on my phone, I was asking for a guide to build lineageos 19 for it, since the official version is still 18

How do I update starlte firmware for LineageOS 20?

I've flashed LineageOS 15.1 immediately since I bought this phone (starlte) in 2018 or 2019. Now I want to upgrade to LineageOS 20.0 but it has the following notice:
Warning: Before following these instructions please ensure that the device is currently using Android 10 firmware.
If the vendor provided multiple updates for that version, e.g. security updates, make sure you are on the latest!
If your current installation is newer or older than Android 10, please upgrade or downgrade to the required version before proceeding (guides can be found on the internet!).

I have searched all over the internet for guides how to do it and I have no idea. Would temporarly flashing to LineageOS17.1 (Android 10) upgrade the firmware? Or do I need to flash official OS image? Or something else? I have no idea, things changed so much since early Android.
Android is the ROM. firmware is the baseband/modem what samsung calls CP core processor. custom ROM won't upgrade firmware, this has to be done by flashing full official ROM/firmware BL+AP+CP+CSC from Odin3.
OK thanks. Looks like this thread has all that i need https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...as-available-oxm-for-sm-g960f-models.3765015/

i'm mainly looking for lineage os, but i cant download it from their website and its the only android 12 rom i can find for my phone
also, i have tried the unofficial rom but it fails to flash and my terminal says `xfer: 0.87%`
I have LineageOS 19.1 (Android 12L) on my Google Drive, is for Moto G7 Play, sadly, since it's Arm64, you will have some problems with app restarts
The only issue of this specific ROM is the Ambient Display, it doesn't work, outside that, there are no problems
