Hi!
I can't flash my Redmi note 4G, it seems there's no way to get into recovery/fastboot mode.
It has china MIUI
ROM version: MIUI-KHICNBF28.0
Any way to "force" the phone in order to be flashed?
Already tried:
Power + Volume up = gets to a useless menu
Power + Volume down = normal boot
Updater app = no way to reboot in recovery mode, no way to select new flash
Tried to flash using adb and fastboot using Macbook, no luck, adb sees no device attached.
Please help! :crying:

Anyone have backup of stock KHICNBF28.0 rom? i need it to unbrick my device.

Hi, (Technical complexity alert!!)
Step 1. Get Android SDK, with platform tools
Step 2. Setup UDEV rules for ur phome
Step 3. use adb to boot into bootloader
$./adb reboot bootloader
Step 4. Push the CWM or Philz Recovery or TWRP zip file to phone root dir
$./adb push 'philz-recovery.zip' '/media/' '<ur phone root folder>'
Step 5. Use fastboot to boot into CWM or Philz Recovery or TWRP
$./fastboot boot philz-recovery.img #this temporarily boots recovery without installing it
Step 6. Take backup on phone or ext sd card
Step 7. Use adb to copy ur backup folder from ph to computer for safe keeping
$./adb pull '/storage/emulated/legacy/clockworkmod/backup'
Step 8. Select and install Zip file that you pushed in step 4
Step 9. Done ur phone now has a custom recovery installed, now it very easy to install custom ROMs
**** This is a modified post with detailed explanation and different files. The original post was made by @samcjtasi at here. *****
If you installed Android 6 from locked Lollipop Bootloader or forgot to unlock the bootloader before the installation and all you need is to root the device, this is a guide for you.
I did unlocked my Bootloader when I was on 168 with Asus unlock app. I flashed 194 raw file via Asus Flash tool which locked my bootloader. I installed MM via adb sideload and I had MM with Locked bootloader. I used this method to root my phone.
I am sure you'd already known that rooting the phone (acquiring the administrative rights for your own phone) will void the phone warranty.
With this method,
1. You do not need to downgrade your MM bootloader to Lollipop, unlock it, install twrp and root the phone, and then upgrade back to MM.
2. You do not need to install the TWRP. You will be running the TWRP from the tethered mode so your stock recovery will be intact.
3. SuperSu initial installation will modify some files in your boot partition in order to re-direct the system request to the SuperSu, as such In case you want to receive an OTA file later, do
**REMEMBER to FLASH BACK TO STOCK Android 6.0 BOOT.IMG** to unroot before upgrading to official Android 6.0.
4. Make sure your phone has battery 80% or more.
Requirements:
1. USB drivers for Asus have to be installed in the computer and your computer should recognize and can do the file transfers between the computer and your phone. You can get the drivers here. You will need to allow the file transfer from your phone when prompt.
2. Android debug bridge (ADB) has to be installed in your computer. I used ADB version 1.0.32. Some knowledge in using DOS and ADB is a plus.
3. Your phone should have the developer option enable and usb debugging should be checked in the developer option tab.
4. You need to know how to use the TWRP. There are a couple videos on youtube explaining about using TWRP.
The Files you need for the root.
1. TWRP - you can download the latest twrp file from here. The latest is ver 3.0.20. You could use older 2.8 versions if you want it.
2. SuperSu installer - I did try with latest SuperSu without success as such use the SuperSu patched by @shakalaca . Get the BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328-patch-by-shakalaca-for-zenfone2-6.0.zip file here.
Steps:
1. Copy the downloaded TWRP to the directory that you install the ADB. (If you do not want to type long file name in adb, rename it to twrp.img. )
2. Connect your phone to the computer and copy the SuperSu installer to the phone internal memory or the external SD card.
3. Open the command prompt windows with administrative rights. (Without admin right ADB will not work properly).
4. Go to the ADB directory using the cd command. (e.g. cd\, cd adb, etc...)
5. Start the ADB environment by typing "adb start-server" . (without the quotation marks of course). You should see ****the demon started successfully*** message.
6. If you want to check your phone connection in adb, you can type "adb devices" to see your phone is recognized in ADB environment. You should see your phone serial no. and status .
7. Boot the phone to bootloader by typing "adb reboot-bootloader". The phone should vibrate and go into the fastboot mode. Wait till your phone get in the fastboot mode before you proceed.
8. Give the command to boot the phone to the twrp by typing "fastboot boot twrp.img". (If you did not change the name of the image file you need to type or copy and paste the whole file name).
You will see the message saying like-
"downloading 'boot.img' .....
OKAY [0.668s]
booting.....
OKAY [0.450s]
finished. total time: 1.120s "
The phone will vibrate twice and the Asus Logo with black splash screen will appear. The phone is start booting with TWRP image.
9. Unplug the phone from the computer. (If within 30 sec your phone should not start booting to TWRP. you can press and release the power button to go to the normal boot mode or press and release the volume-up key to go to the recovery mode. The TWRP should start by then.)
10. In TWRP install the SuperSu file by tapping install option. (I am sure you remember where you put the SuperSU installer zip file)
11. When the SuperSu installation is completed you will see the message saying like " You will see the your phone has failed verification message and reboot a couple times". Please remember that.
12. Clear the Dalvik cache and then reboot the phone. (You can reboot the phone without clearing the dalvik cache if you want).
Your phone will reboot and you will see the triangle saying like "your phone has failed verification" message and then automatically reboot the phone, showing up the message again. It would happen two to three times and you phone will be booted to the system. (You will not see that error message anymore in the upcoming boots).
Now your phone is rooted. You can check it by installing and running the app like root-chekcer.
Good luck.

It should not be go to stock recovery. The command is to boot with twrp.img.
Did you see message "booting ok finsihed" in the adb window?
Once you see that message, you can unplug the phone from the computer and twrp should be boot within 30 sec.
I finally found the time to update, everything went smooth but I'm having problems booting the twrp
I've tried several twrp from the guides but none worked
In cmd it says
Downloading boot.img
Okay
Booting...
Okay
Finished
C:\
The phone reboots but it goes to the dead droid screen.
I'm using adb and fastboot from adb-setup-1.4.3
IntelAndroidDriver1.10.0 and I've selected this version for the device in device manager.
The so is win 10 prof, I'm starting cmd as administrator.
I tried unplugging the phone and leaving it connected.
Also I'm using the 550 version, I've tried twrps from several threads for 550 and 551 (even tho twrp has merged both phones)
Am I missing something?
A little ot :
I need root 'couse adaway but I thought I would just use the twrp file manager to swap the default hosts file with the one I had in L.
It should work, right?

The guide was written from the experience working with 551ML but it should work for the 550ML I think.
I am also using the Win10 Prof and my adb has a date of 3/30/2015.
I downloaded the latest twrp from the teamwin site. I did not use the twrp mentioned in this forum because they did not work for me. (The purpose of this guide is to use TWRP as temporary and not to install on the phone as such we do not need the signed TWRP ).
In the original thread some mentioned about going to the stock recovery (dead droid with red triangle) as such I put the instruction to press the power button or press the volumn-up button to go to the recovery mode. Actually, they are not required. If everything works, your phone should start booting with the twrp image.

If you saw the message booting .... and ok your phone should be start booting to TWRP not the recovery. The command was to boot the phone with TWRP image. Try to download the TWRP image again from the teamwin site.
If someone just need root for Adaway, just don't, it is not required anymore since you can use other adblocker without root. Just install Block this and you're on: https://block-this.com

If you are using latest twrp directly downloaded from the teamwin site and if you are following the steps that I mentioned you should be OK. The only thing different could be the ADB version. Try different adb version or try this on the different computer.
Thanks. I got systemless root by this method.

Thanks for the reminder, I'm using this until I get twrp to boot.
I tried adb 1.0.36 that should be the latest but it didn't work. I'll try on win7 or something.
If someone that succeeded could do
Adb version
Fastboot --version
And report here I'd be grateful.
Edit:
I've tried win 7 too but without luck.

Hi,
Does it reset the phone (apps, documents, accounts,...) ?
Tks !
This will probably not work. In other for it to work and be able to boot into twrp, I had to unlock the bootloader first, because the "fastboot boot twrp.zip" command wouldn't work unless I did so

No it does not. The procedure is to boot with twrp image temporarily.

It work for me though. If you unlocked your bootloader you do not need this method. You can simply install the twrp to your recovery partition.
I can confirm it does not work with a locked bootloader, it boots into the dead droid screen.
Can i install Xposed with threded recovery
Hi,
I'm all new to rooting and I got a major issue.
Here's the story.
Wanting that substratum themes, I looked up for rooting my devices
I followed this guide to unlock the bootloader, and all was fine.
Next, I followed this one for rooting, but at the "installing nexus drivers" step, my PC wasn't showing off any driver setup or something related to a driver.
I pressed Enter, despite the fact that I didn't know if I had nexus drivers properly installed, and my phone didn't want to boot up. Stuck on the boot animation, for more than 20 hours.
Next day, I came back and found this mega thread about unbricking. I followed it, and now I'm in a boot loop: my phone reboot 1-2 secs after showing the home screen, but I can still enter in fast boot mode. My phone is still unlocked and when I enter Huawei's eRecovery (by long-pressing up volume button) to try to "Download new version and recovery" it connects to my Wi-Fi, then fails.
Thanks for your patience,
Mx3_
Do I understand correctly? Do you wont root your phone ?
1 st. With method which presented, you can only root your device if you have Android 5 or lower, if you have android 6 Marshalow - you must use " Systemless ROOT"
2nd. You must upload new ROM on your device ( i have special tool for do this "srktoolHuawei" - this is a special tool for flashing every new rom on a huawei device )
3.rd." HuaweiUpdateExtractor" - this is a tool for extract new ROM ( roms for huawei, you can find in huawei webside ) - download rom for your device, extract by this tool, copy and paste inside folder of "srktoolHuawei"
Next...
Plug you device to PC by usb, go to recovery mode and if you have unblocked bootloader, should be writen:" Phone is unlocked" - > Open "srktoolHuawei", go to Command Prop and then:
- IMPORTANT !!! - you must upload files: SYSTEM, RECOVERY, CUST, BOOT - you can do this using that commands:
1. fastboot flash system system.img
2.fastboot flash boot boot.img
3.fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
4.fastboot flash cust cust.img
Reboot and system should starts correctly...
---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------
If you wont to root your device with SYSTEMLESSROOT method, you should do like that:
1. If you upload recovery by "srktoolHuawei" - > download TWRP recovery and upload into your device ( copy and paste TWRP img. file into this tool folder insted of traditional android recovery file, next change name from TWRP, to just recovery.img and upload using command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img )
2. Now - if you press volume + - and power together, you should have TWRP Recovery insted of Huawei Recovery, thats good...
3. Next...BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3 - upload this version of supersu into your SD card...
4. Next - go to TWRP mod, next to advanced, next to Terminal Command and write command like this:
echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
Confirm this command and back to install ( this command means that you will install SuperSU and it will make systemless root for you )
When if you have install, then select supersu which you downloaded before and now simply flash it by TWRP, next reboot and you should installed supersu and rooted device...
I successfully rooted, thanks ! but now i installed a substratum theme (pixel ui), uninstalled some huawei apps and rebooted to apply effects, and i'm stuck again in a bootloop ! tried wipe cache with TWRP, but didn't work :/

Please tell me you made a back up in TWRP if you did just use the RESTORE option in TWRP if not you will have to go through the above again to get back to stock but missing out flashing the recovery partition as yours is working.
When your phone boots make a back up in TWRP before trying out anything so its easy to recover

Hello @BaronDeLucifer,
what do you mean with this? Do I need the srktool for rooting my P8 Lite?
With best regards
Hello guys, I'm a beginner in this flashing stuff. I have watched youtube over a guy flashing Android 10 on his Samsung note 3. I carefully took his steps and i make sure that my model is compatible with said ROM, Mine is Samsung note 3 lte (N9005), Snapdragon. The issues that i am currently having is on flashing TWRP on my Samsung Note 3, because it won't boot on recovery mode despite i press the exact button as the Video describe, it just boots in recovery and then restarted on the same logo boot repeatedly. I have tried flashing LineAgeOs using the tutorial provided by LineAgeOs team and again, i make sure that the rom is fully compatible and still end up same result. Please help me on this issue. Thank you very much for giving your time reading my problems
Please describe your issue again with more details.
From you're post, it seems as though you are having issues with TWRP. Below I will give you a full tutorial on how to get TWRP up and running for your specific device. Do give this a go, as I have done the research for your specific model, and it should work just fine.
First things first, unlock your devices bootloader. You may not have done this correctly, so if it is possbile to boot into android, then try this:
How to unlock Bootloader on Samsung Galaxy Note 3 | Softstribe
Unlocking bootloader in Samsung Note 3 made easy and you can simply enable developers mode where you can perform OEM unlock.
softstribe.com
If you're bootloader is already unlocked, then proceed.
Now that the bootloader in unlocked, we need to install TWRP for your specific device. Your device is the N9005, which is the international snapdragon model. It's codename is hlte, or hlte*. For TWRP, it is also categorised as the Europe/American model (hltexx).
For flashing TWRP correctly to a samsung device, we will need odin. Odin is a flashing software for samsung devices.
Download Odin.zip from here:
Samsung Odin - Root Android download page for one click root
Samsung odin download - Root android and oneclickroot for flash / install custom ROM with one click root method
odindownload.com
(Download the latest version (v13.4.1 at the time of writing this)
Now, extract Odin.
Once we have Odin downloaded, we will need to install the correct usb drivers for Samsung phones.
Download the file below, then extract the zip and run the installer:
Samsung_USB_Driver_v1.7.31.0
MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.
www.mediafire.com
Now that odin and the drivers are ready, we need the actual twrp image which we need to flash to our device.
Here is the link, download the latest .img.tar file (3.6.1_9-0 at the time of writing):
Download TWRP for hlte
Download TWRP Open Recovery for hlte
dl.twrp.me
Do not download the normal .img file, as that cannot be flashed via odin.
Now that we're past the prerequisites, we need to actually flash twrp to your device. To begin, we must put your note 3 into download mode. To enter download mode, power off your phone completely and then press Power+Home+Vol Down at the same time and keep these three buttons pressed until your phone shows a "download mode, do not power off target!!!" screen, you can follow this video tutorial below:
Now that we are in download mode on the device, we need to get back to our computer and configure odin to flash twrp. First things first, open odin. Now, connect your phone to the computer. You should see a little "COM-" show up in one of the empty boxes in the top row under the word "ID:COM". This is good, it means that your pc successfully recognises your device.
Now, go to the options tab on the left side, makse sure that repartition is UNCHECKED. Now, click on the "AP" button, and navigate to and select the TWRP.img.tar file that you downloaded earlier. After you have selected it, click on start at the bottom right. Now it will begin to flash twrp, which should not take long. Make sure that you do not disconnect the device while flashing, wait for the phone to complete. Once it is done, the phone will reboot.
Now, just remove the battery, then put it back in. To enter TWRP recovery, keep Power+Home+Vol Up pressed, then once you see the samsung boot logo upon the phone powering on, let go of power, but keep home and volume up pressed.
Congrats! You've just flashed TWRP to your device, amazing!
Now you can go and look for custom roms to flash to your device. Since your model is the N9005, look for hlte/hlte* roms, don't use any roms if they don't support the hlte/hlte* variant.
Alright, now since you have mentioned that you want to use lineage os, here's a guide for that too.
So currently, it is recommended to use android 11 lineage os nightly builds as they are stable and official, so they should not have any bugs. So unfortunately, I cannot recommend installing lineage os android 10, as you had originally wanted, though the installation process for that will be somewhat similar. It is still not recommended to use old or unofficial builds due to bugs and lack of security updates.
First, we need to download lineage os for this device onto our pc, here's the link to the latest nightly build:
https://mirrorbits.lineageos.org/full/hlte/20220319/lineage-18.1-20220319-nightly-hlte-signed.zip
Next we need to download a GApps package for google play functionality. OpenGApps is recommended as it is open source, secure and reliable, usually with no bugs. I recommend using the nano package instead of pico if your device can handle it (your's can handle it just fine), as it contains google play functionality, and some extra google features which cannot be downloaded from google play. Here is the link to the nano package for your device (only for android 11 roms):
https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm/20220215/open_gapps-arm-11.0-nano-20220215.zip/download?use_mirror=udomain&r=&use_mirror=autoselect
Now, if you want to get your device play protect certified, you will also need to download magisk for rooting, and magisk modules (so that you can download netflix and use banking apps etc.), but that is something you can do later on, and you can find any tutorial online for this.
Once the download is complete, move the lineage and opengapps .zip files to an sd card and insert it into the phone. Enter TWRP, go to wipe and click on Advanced. From here, wipe System+Data+Cache+Dalvik/ART Cache. Your files such as photos and media will not be wiped.
Next, go back to the TWRP main menu and select install. Click the select storage button at the bottom left and click on Micro SD Card. Now, click on the lineage os zip file, then click on the Add Zips to Queue button and select the opengapps zip file, then click install. This will take some time, do not interrupt it. Once it is complete, you can reboot the phone. The first reboot will take some time, and the first boot may be slow, after setting up your device, make sure to reboot it at least once.
Congrats, you've just installed a custom rom with google play functionality via TWRP!
Unfortunately, sometimes there are issues. If you still cannot get into lineage os despite waiting at least 10 minutes on the boot screen, then follow these steps below:
The lineage team says that booting issues may be due to incompatible recoveries, this means that we will have to use lineageos's own recovery to flash the rom.
For this, download the lineage os recovery.img from here:
https://mirrorbits.lineageos.org/recovery/hlte/20220319/lineage-18.1-20220319-recovery-hlte.img
Now copy this image file to your sd card and insert it into the phone.
Enter TWRP. First of all, click on wipe, then click on advanced and select System+Data+Cache+Dalvik/ART Cache and wipe. Now, go back to the main menu and click install. At the bottom right or left, there will be a button to "Install Image". Click on that button, and select the lineage recovery zip file and install it. Now go back to the main menu and click on the reboot button, then click on reboot to recovery.
Now you will boot into the lineage os recovery, from here you can install lineage os and the gapps zip files. Here is a tutorial:
This tutorial is for a oneplus phone, but it will be the same process on your samsung device.
Once it is complete, you can restart the device. If you would like TWRP back after flashing, just follow the steps from my first post and use odin to flash the twrp file again. I recommend that after installing lineage os, flash twrp again, as twrp recovery is much better than lineage recovery, and you dont need lineage recovery after installing lineage os.
If I helped you out, please mark my post as the solution, Thanks!

I did exactly with all your instructions. The end result is still the same that it won't boot TWRP after flashing, I don't really understand what the heck is wrong with my Samsung Note 3 Hlte. However i did try again with Lineageos Recovery, heck same thing too! This is really frustracting man, it just restarted itself and goes into normal boot.

Did you follow my instructions from the beginning, using the files I linked, instead of your own?
How did you even try lineage recovery if you can't boot into TWRP? You need to boot into TWRP to flash lineage recovery..
HECK, how did you even flash lineage os if you can't boot into twrp???
Please answer these questions, as it is literally impossbile to do what your doing without entering twrp.
Just follow my instructions step by step, using only the files I linked, then tell us what happens.
I think your problem is that you aren't even entering recovery mode. You need to keep Power+Home+Volume Up pressed, then once the samsung logo appears, wait for 2 seconds and let go of power, without letting go of home or volume up. Now keep home and volume up pressed, eventually you will boot into twrp.
If you can't get into twrp, it means that you didn't flash it correctly, in which case make sure that your bootloader is unlocked.
It is also possible that your devices buttons or broken or something, in that case, download platform tools from here:
https://magiskupdate.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/platform-tools_r31.0.3-windows.zip/
Next, download and install adb and fastboot drivers from here:
Download in progress... - My USB Drivers
Preparing your download... Please wait...! Facing issues downloading the file or the download link is broken? You can report us here.
myusbdrivers.com
Install the drivers, then reboot. After that, extract platform tools and open the folder. Note the location of the folder (e.g. C:\Users\Name\Downloads\platform-tools). Now open a command prompt window (cmd), then type:
cd location of platform tools folder here
e.g.
cd C:\Users\Name\Downloads\platform-tools
Now, boot your phone into download mode (power+home+vol down), then connect it to the pc. Type:
adb reboot recovery
and
fastboot reboot recovery
This will force your device to boot into recovery, if your device still doesn't boot into twrp, then you have incorrectly flashed twrp to your device. If that's the case, please carefully follow my instructions from the first post, using my linked files only.

Did you follow my instructions from the beginning, using the files I linked, instead of your own?
How did you even try lineage recovery if you can't boot into TWRP? You need to boot into TWRP to flash lineage recovery..
HECK, how did you even flash lineage os if you can't boot into twrp???
Please answer these questions, as it is literally impossbile to do what your doing without entering twrp.
Just follow my instructions step by step, using only the files I linked, then tell us what happens.
I think your problem is that you aren't even entering recovery mode. You need to keep Power+Home+Volume Up pressed, then once the samsung logo appears, wait for 2 seconds and let go of power, without letting go of home or volume up. Now keep home and volume up pressed, eventually you will boot into twrp.
If you can't get into twrp, it means that you didn't flash it correctly, in which case make sure that your bootloader is unlocked.
It is also possible that your devices buttons or broken or something, in that case, download platform tools from here:
https://magiskupdate.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/platform-tools_r31.0.3-windows.zip/
Next, download and install adb and fastboot drivers from here:
Download in progress... - My USB Drivers
Preparing your download... Please wait...! Facing issues downloading the file or the download link is broken? You can report us here.
myusbdrivers.com
Install the drivers, then reboot. After that, extract platform tools and open the folder. Note the location of the folder (e.g. C:\Users\Name\Downloads\platform-tools). Now open a command prompt window (cmd), then type:
cd location of platform tools folder here
e.g.
cd C:\Users\Name\Downloads\platform-tools
Now, boot your phone into download mode (power+home+vol down), then connect it to the pc. Type:
adb reboot recovery
and
fastboot reboot recovery
This will force your device to boot into recovery, if your device still doesn't boot into twrp, then you have incorrectly flashed twrp to your device. If that's the case, please carefully follow my instructions from the first post, using my linked files only.

I did follow your instructions using your own files that you provided for me. I did press Power + Home + volume up exactly as you told me to and let go of power button and keep pressing Volume up and Home, It just won't boot correctly into Twrp and restarted itself. There is alternative than using TWRP which is Lineageos Recovery os, i flashed that on my Samsung Note 3 HLTE, but it also don't work as well. However the link you sent to me right now is broken. Mind sending new one?
i forgot to mention one thing, i already unlocked the bootloader on Devs setting by turning on USB Debugging. There is no saying about bootloader option. I'm 100% sure i am doing it correctly. I downloaded literally everything from you and did as the instruction told. Even when i keep pressing Home + Volume up, it goes into bootloop without any successful attempt into booting twrp correctly and once i let go of Home + volume up button will boot my Samsung note 3 hlte into Normal boot and work as normal.
there should be an oem unlocking option in developer options. you need to select that, then reboot into downlaod mode and confirm to unlock your bootloader. To check it if it is unlocked, boot into download mode and send a picture of the text which it shows at the top right here on this forum and ill be able to confirm it for you.
N9005 does not have a locked bootloader .
Check its actually a N9005

You can see the video for the devs option, there is only usb debugging, i turn it off so that you can notice it and turn it back on in the video. You can try look at the download mode picture too. Let me know if i am doing anything wrong. Anyways the SDK Platform tool link you sent me is broken bro, i haven't try that solution yet.

It is N9005 my bro, I checked the spec with CPUZ and also reFlashed with Stock ROM N9005 with same Country region just for sure and it works fine. After i flash the stock rom, it can boot into recovery mode with no issues. However, with TWRP... It just won't work... I don't know why...
Will an older TWRP 2.8.70 etc flash , it could then upgrade TWRP .

I'll try flashing Old twrp version and soon update about it.
Okay. it seem to be work out. But i realised that my Samsung note 3 hlte lcd screen is not original... So is this the reason why i can't flash custom rom? Or is there any alternative that may help me flash any good custom rom other than stock?

Changed parts doesnt affect the installation of a custom rom. What issue are you encountering, you said that it worked out..? Just use twrp to wipe system+data+cache+dalvik, then flash acustom rom which is compatible with the hlte

Twrp 2.8.70 is too old to read modern custom rom, it seem that i can't flash Lineageos 18.1 at all. That's what i mean, although Android 7.1 Lineageos seem to work out on my samsung note 3 hlte
flash 2.8.70, then install a 3.3x image via twrp's "install image" option in the install menu
Here is a quick how-to guide to flash LineageOS 19.0 to the A51
Disclaimer: I am not the maintainer of any of the files I link to here. I just wanted to share my experience to make the process of Flashing los19 to the a51 easier for others.
Prerequisites:
1. Unlocked Bootloader
This step is crucial. You need to unlock the bootloader of the A51 before trying any of this. If not, you are likely to brick your device.1.1. Unlock developer mode by standard procedure: Settings > Info > Tab 7 times on build number1.2. Enable USB debugging in Developer Options1.3. Enable OEM unlocking in Developer Options -> To see OEM unlock option I needed to connect to my WIFI, then set the phone date manually to March 7th 2019. Only then the OEM unlock option became visible in Developer Options. Yes, this is super dumb and inconvenient...1.4 After triggering OEM unlock option shutdown your phone.1.5 Enter Download mode by: Pressing Volume+ and Volume - while at the same time plugging in the USB cable that is already in your PC.1.6. To finally unlock bootloader, you will see a green screen on which you need to press Vol + for some time. THIS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. It will also erase all data on your phone!1.7 After reboot repeat steps 1.1. - 1.5. again. This time you can actually enter download mode by pressing Vol + shortly on the green screen.
2. Flash Twrp
You can now flash TWRP via Odin. The TWRP img I used is here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/0h14t0263oujhna/TWRP-11-3.6.1-a51-20220321-1406-hotfix.tar/file. I flashed it as AP. Make sure to uncheck Auto reboot before flashing.When flashing is complete hold Vol - and Power until reboot.Immediately when rebooting hold Vol + and Power until Samsung logo appears, then let Power go but hold Vol + to enter TWRP.
3. Actual Flashing:
3.1. Necessary Files:Make sure to load all files necessary to your SD before flashing:ChonDoe_Flasher, Disable_Dm_Verity, Multidisabler, LOS-Imagefile, Magisk(optional)As for the LOS Image I used this file here, which already includes gapps:lineage-19.0-20220211-UNOFFICIAL-treble_arm64_bgS-vndklite.imgIf you don't want gapps pick an image that says "BvS" instead of "bgs"3.2. You need to move your LOS-Image to the same folder as ChonDoe_Flasher and rename the file to "system.img"
3.3 Flashing Sequence:
In TWRP Follow this sequence:
3.3.1. Wipe data, dalvik, cache3.3.2. flash disable_dm_verity3.3.3. flash multidisabler3.3.4. Wipe internal storage (Backup might be advisable, if you didn't format data anyways)3.3.5. reboot recovery3.3.6. flash chondone with lineage-19.0-20220211-UNOFFICIAL-treble_arm64_bgS-vndklite.img in the same folder renamed to system.mg3.3.7. Wipe data3.3.8. Reboot
That should be it. First startup takes some time, your phone should boot to LOS 19.
4. Anger Management
If you softbrick your device you can try to go back to stock rom by accessing download mode and flashing it via Odin. Will take some fiddling around with the button combinations.
If you hardbrick your device don't hold me responsible and good luck to you!
Thanks to
Kyau Sana, Vadim Kupriyanov, Knoyan GTR-X and Sara Lins and other, from the telegram-group, who helped me figure out the process.

Lineage 19 flash worked but after flashing my TWRP recovery bootloops (flashing twrp logo).
TWRP that loops is twrp-a51-3.5.0_10-1_ianmacd.
Do you have a working TWRP for this version of Lineage ?
Tried TWRP v3.6.1 A51 tree but it doesn't work and boots into download mode with "DT Entry not found / DT Load Failed / VB Meta sign errors"

Nope TWRP does not work. When using the one you linked (as all other 3.6.1 ones) it just jumps back to download mode with DT Entry not found & VBMeta not signed errors.
ALL sensors ok ?
Fingerprint ok ? In this ROM

Sorry to hear mate. Unfortunately I cannot hell you solve this issue. There is a telegram channel for custom roms on the A51 with many motivated people. One of them might have the answer you need!
See: https://t.me/samsunga51
If you find it, please post it, so others can profit from it. With your agreement I would also like to add info about the solution - should you find it - to my initial post.

Don't know about fingerprint as I do not want to provide biometric data to my phone. Maybe someone else using the ROM can answer this; Or you, if you decide to flash it post your results.
Apart from that I have not had any problems with the ROM apart from the following:
-The resulotion of the native lineage camera app is not satisfactory. When I find an app that works better, I'll let you know.
- Restarting the phone after empty battery requires a soft reset sometimes (power+vol -)
-> A solution to this problem might be given in this post. Will try it later.
Thank you, @DerTopher , but unfortunately the link to your LOS file does not work any more. How do I get the file now?
THIS GUIDE ONLY WORKS ON ANDROID 12!!!

I have concluded all my experiments, and now I can confirm that the "twrp-a51-3.5.0_10-1_ianmacd.tar" on this website only works for Android 10 as instructed by Admin. This does not for Android 11. For Android 11 you have to flash a different file called "Twrp+vbmeta_A11.tar".
