How to update LineageOS 18.1 to a higher nightly build? - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have Lineage 18.1 with Magisk and GAPPS (pico) installed on a Oneplus 8T. Now I'd like to update to a newer Lineage 18.1 nightly build. The Lineage Updater doesn't offer this option (why not? Wouldn't it be a nice feature request? ) thus I assume I have to update to a higher nightly build of 18.1 by myself.
Am I right that the update procedure is the same as installing LineageOS 18.1 from recovery except that I shouldn't do neither a Factory Reset nor a Format data / factory reset? (to keep my apps)
As I have Magisk installed, I assume that I have to repeat patching the boot.img. Right?
I'm unsure about GAPPS. Do I need to sideload it again after having installed a newer nightly build of LineageOS 18.1 and before booting?
Many thanks for your support.

you are not getting updates for 18.1 because 19 is out. uograde instructions are on lineage website

LineageOS using nethunteros.

Hi.
I am planning to install Nethunter (linux) on my OPO phone for penetration testing.
Lineage os has it's version of Nethunter on Github I might try. Ex; ( los-14.1-20170103-bacon-nethunteros.zip).
Currently, I have Lineage os 14.1 v7.1.2 rom which gives me great battery live.
My question is after a clean wipe & installing nethunteros, will new Android system updates for LOS 14.1 nightly builds be obsolete to apply on my phone?
If I wanted to continue updating a pure LOS rom with the nightly builds, should I use a multirom and flash CM12/Nethunter then LOS 14.1 as a secondary?

[SOLVED] Error with OOS 9.0.6 OP5T

Hello,
My OP5T is under LineageOS 16.0-20190604-NIGHTLY-dumpling. I would like to point out that my OP5T is rooted with MAGISK.
I downloaded the LineageOS 16.0 version from 02/07 to install it via TWRP. Error message telling me that I needed the OOS firmware version 9.0.6 that I downloaded.
I get an installation error message under TWRP
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
Error installing zip file '/sdcard/LineageOS/firmware_9.0.6_oneplus5t.zip'
I was able to successfully install the previous OOS version 9.0.5 OP5T.
Is there a step I missed, or do I need to completely reinstall LineageOS?
Thank you for your advice and help.

Hello,
I solved my problem.
Reading the latest comments on the post [RECOVERY][dumpling] TWRP 3.3.X by codeworkx, I see that many people have problems with the latest version of TWRP by codeworkx.
So I downgraded TWRP :
Ver. twrp-3.3.1.1-1-20190623-codeworkx-dumpling -> impossible to install OOS 9.0.6 and LineageOS 16.0 version from 02/07
Ver. twrp-3.3.3.1-0-20190623-codeworkx-dumpling -> impossible to install OOS 9.0.6 and LineageOS 16.0 version from 02/07
Ver. twrp-3.3.3.0-0-20190427-codeworkx-dumpling -> OK. I was able to install the latest version of LineageOS 16.0 after installing it
Thanks

Installed official Lineage 18.1

Hi, a while back I had succesfully installed Official LOS 18.1, after jumping over a few hurdles. As I update and manage several Lineage phones at home, it gets a bit confusing and this has been the newest addition.
My question, can I apply the nighty updates in a simple manner via recovery using the zip OR will I neecd to jump the hurdles again, ab partition etc?

From the information I've read (but not tried), it sounds like you should be able to use the Lineage updater to do incremental updates as long as you are in the same major version (e.g. 18.1, 17.1, etc)
What he said. Just apply from Lineage Updater.
Do you have the flashable zip for official LineageOS 18.1? on the site i only find LineageOS 20 but it restarts almost every app because of really low free RAM
