I reset my Oneplus 8T to factory using MSMDownlad tool. After I installed an Oxygen system update (so, the second slot should have a valid version too), I flashed recovery with LineageOS 19.1 (following the "Installing a custom recovery using fastboot" instructions by Lineage). But rebooting into recovery mode gives me a blank screen. As I had installed LineageOS 18.1 previously, I flashed recovery with LineageOS 18.1 - and here I get the recovery menu.
So, why is Lineage 19.1 recovery mode not working? Did I missed something?
Ok, from another thread: I have to upgrade to OxygenOS 12 first.

I have recently built Lineage OS 14.1 for an unsupported device nobleltechn (Galaxy Note 5 SM-N9200). And while flashing the installation package generated by the build process, my device got stuck at about 80% progress. It says "Patching System Image Unconditionally" but nothing happens. I'm using the latest TWRP recovery, and I've also tried Lineage OS recovery, neither of them worked. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
After the firmware Lineage 18.0 flew recovery, stupidly stopped opening.Flashing through adb recovery img does not give anything, can someone tell me something? Now I can't restore the TWRP backup or flash the custom firmware and Magisk.
I installed the service firmware via the computer and everything worked out.
In my case i boot on fastboot and flashed twrp img without booting into Lineage OS 18.1 and i could install another rom, Lineage OS 18.1 sadly has the bug that deletes TWRP recovery on rom boot, doesn't matter if you install again TWRP recovery
I unlocked my bootloader yesterday and tried to install Lineage OS 18.1 custom rom. I was able to install it but I wanted gapps so I rebooted to my recovery. I am confused between the A/B partition system. I accidentally flashed TWRP on A and Lineage Recovery on B. I restored both of them to the original one. How do I install Lineage OS with Gaaps? Should I flash the Lineage OS zip on A (so that it is installed on B), change the slots and flash Gapps?
"fastboot boot <image_name>" just gets stuck on the androidone logo which is why iused "fastboot flash <image_name>.

Thanks. I figured it eventually. I installed OS on my b-slot and gapps + magisk on my a-slot.
I need help bad - can't figure out how to get my phone working again and it is basically stuck in fastboot.
This is a POCO F3 (alioth) and I previously had Lineage 18 and TWRP recovery installed (since I like to do full backups)
I flashed new firmware, then the OS, then gapps, rebooted, looks great. Awesome. Now I'm just gonna go back and install the latest TWRP and be done. This is where I must have gone wrong.
I used fastboot flash boot twrp.img with the latest version of TWRP (I had to do the same to sideload Lineage 19 since the older version I had was apparently not compatible and couldn't get the Lineage recovery to load) rebooted to recovery, and TWRP asked for my pattern to decrypt as usual. But it would not accept my pattern. I hit cancel, and because I didn't have access to my data I wasn't able to install TWRP by having it patch the ramdisk. Okay, maybe it's a glitch, I tried booting into TWRP again and got the same thing. When I went to reboot again I noticed the slot was A, instead of B which it had always been previously. So I thought maybe my system partition was on B and switching that would solve it. But after I switched that slot, TWRP has never gotten past the splash screen before it reboots and I can't boot into my system at all. Essentially the only thing I can boot into is Fastboot.
I have tried flashing the latest Lineage recovery (does not boot), an older version of TWRP (boots but sees none of my data) and stock MIUI boot.img (boots to recovery but has no options besides wipe).
I am at a loss here - I know I probably did something wrong in there, but is my system wiped? I have a lot of data on there I'd like to retain. I don't think it is wiped but I don't understand the a/b partition setup or why TWRP boot-loops on me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

FWIW althafvly who is one of the LineageOS maintainers of the Xiaomi POCO F3 / Redmi K40 / Mi 11X (alioth) wrote in the post #1 of his XDA thread [ROM][OFFICIAL][alioth/aliothin][12.1] LineageOS 19.1 *(bolded by him)*:
Flashing LineageOS through TWRP is NOT SUPPORTED and NOT ADVISED.

I figured out what seems to be a solution for preserving my data - for anyone else who has a similar issue, here are the steps I used to solve:
If Lineage recovery boots for you, by all means use that. I couldn't get it to boot from fastboot.
Select slot A in fastboot. flash latest TWRP to boot_a. Select slot A again. boot to recovery. TWRP should load, it will not decrypt your data but it doesn't wipe it either. Hit cancel there. Then go to advanced and ADB sideload. Sideload Lineage ROM. reboot to recovery, and finally Lineage recovery shows up. Sideload Gapps there and whatever else. Boot to system. DO NOT REINSTALL TWRP.
Apparently TWRP can access the disk somehow, but won't decrypt existing data. Hope this helps someone.
Hello,
I previously installed LineageOS 17 on my Samsung Galaxy A3 2017 successfuly with this but i needed a clean reinstall. So I wiped everything (except system).
But now I'm not booting on TWRP but on LineageOS, but the loading screen is looping.
So I flashed TWRP again with Odin, which says TWRP is properly flashed. Then I tried with ADB and Fastboot. But nothing worked, always the LineageOS loading screen.
Can't access any recovery mode, just the Download Mode.
I used the exact same programs and files I used before for my successful LineageOS install, so I don't get it.
What should I do ?
Thanks!
install twrp again and make sure the lienage os is the correct version
