Moto G7plus> Update 17.1 to 19.1? - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Hi, I have a Motorola G7 plus I haven't used in a while. It currently has Lineage 17.1 installed on it. My question is, do version updates have to be installed incrementally? As in, must I update to 18.1 first before updating to 19.1? Or can I safely skip over the 18.1 update and install 19.1?
Also, I saw someone recommend Tiny ADB & Fastboot tools. Is that a reasonable tool to use for a novice level tech person like myself?
Thanks in advance for the advice.

Unable to access root

I'm using asus zenfone 2 ze551ml
it's running latest build 21/9/17 of lineage os 14.1
im unable to get root access
i have checked my system folder in root directory through TWRP
Su file is present but although after allowing apps and ADB to get root access in developer setting
the ui which apparently ask for root access is not popping up
and root checker suggests that your device is not properly rooted at all
This problem came up when is switched rom lineage os 14.1 (nougat 7.1.1)
to lineage os 14.1(nougat 7.1.2)
recently updated su addons dated 25/06/2017 are having such a problem for me
plz update the su addon for X86(or firmware) or atleast give me the reason to stay on this rom
Thanks A Lot

Did you upgrade or do a full wipe?
Some stuff that I read indicated that uninstalling old su before installing the new su build was a good idea. It was released for those that had issue with the old one and not really a upgrade.
I recently did a full wipe on my phone (moto z) and used latest su on 7.1.2 without problems.
I suggest checking out what the local forum thread of your device says. If this is a device and build specific issue I'm sure some other people noticed it too.

I know what are you trying to say
That many device uses same su so check you my phones specific
But tbh what is know is there are only 5 devices running x86 cpu zenfone 2,4,5,6
And only one of them is running lineage os 14.1 other dont support officially so they use 13.0 's addon zip
That means only zenfone 2 can flash 14.1's addon su
And FYI I did wiped first
And xiomi's phine are having same problem with this popup
Finally a solution........ That after long desperate efforts worked for me. You can flash the Magisk 13.0 zip. Mind you an upgraded version will lead you to a loop to your custom recovery. Magisk 13.0 is zenfone 2 x86 architecture compatible. Good luck. Just got this solution last night. Tell me if this helped you and also if you found a better way.

Xposed on Nexus 5 and LineageOS 15?

So i recently re-installed Lineage OS on my old nexus 5 and i was wondering, how can i install Xposed on to it, with framework and app and all that? With the search results online i am not getting really far, i don't quite know what version to install , how to do it etc....
Note: i need Xposed specifically to install multiple custom watchfaces on a huawei watch GT2.
I tried installing a version, but it just reseted my phone, and when i check the Rooted sate of the phone i get "not rooted" or something like that.
I installed LineageOS via TWRP on the phone.
Can you guys help me out here? i did not root or install custom FW on a phone in a loong time and i am out of the loop of recent hacks and stuff.
Thanks in advance

Main point for xposed: what Android version? For xposed I recommend nougat. LinageOS 14.1 is still getting security patches.

Latest custom rom for this device is lineage mint found in dev section based on lineage os 17.1
Latest Netflix at time of writing can be downloaded from here

If you are rooted use magisk to hide root (including hide magisk with a random package name)

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
