Issue: Whenever i try to install a custom rom for the first time the device is starting normally and it booting, But when i try to install the same rom again, the device goes to bootloop. This happened to all roms i tried. So help me to avoid this issue.
(Note: After the bootloop i manually flashed stock firmware to boot the device)

What's the TWRP recovery version you're using currently?
How you flash ROMs, dirty or clean flash?

When you flash the same ROM second time, that is clean or dirty flash?
But this is weird. One can dirty flash same ROM, there shouldn't be any bootloops.

I did clean flash only. I did everything in order. I dont know where the problem is?
My TWRP is 3.0.3 and whenever I flash the latest PureNexus Rom, only thing that appears on my screen is Android is starting after I complete the setup.

wipe
reboot

Did you flash a GApps package? I believe Pure Nexus recommends Dynamic GApps... Check the PN thread for the download link.
Wipe
Flash ROM
Flash GApps
Flash vendor (although you shouldn't need to do this again)
Reboot system

You should search the Pure nexus thread. This is a known issue with the latest build and there are workarounds for it.
I flashed this official lineage os for zuk z1 , which is the first build but I am getting error 7 in TWRP while flashing and the installation is aborted. I am attaching screenshots taken of the error I encountered, please kindly check and give me any solution to this problem
I am using TWRP 3.0.2
Last ROM :-Official CM13 18-12-2016 nightly

It won't work..i'm facing the exact same problem with the same version of the twrp recovery and i did try turning of the zip verification too.

Tried turning off zip signature verification, it didn't help... Then I googled the problem, I found out that we should modify code in update_script... Decompress the file, that is
1) unzip the nightly zip
2) go into META-INF>com>Google>Android
There you'll find two files , select updater-script and rename it to updater-script.txt
It will convert into txt file so you can edit it.
3) delete the assert commands till last semicolon or delete all from assert till you see ”mount(ext......” (don't delete Mount....)
4) save the changes. Then again rename it that is from updater-script.txt to updater-script..
5) compress the file again into zip format.
There you go, you can flash this without any errors.... I tried this , it works fine...
Anyone have any other solution? No one's facing this issue?
I read that old bootloader is also one of the problem to get this issue? How to update bootloader?

Try this Version of TWRP, What i figured is like some versions of twrp do cause some problems,..
STEPS :-
1.) Download that Image file
2.) YOU DON'T HAVE TO WIPE ANYTHING IF YOU INSTALLED ANY ROM, BECAUSE YOU ARE JUST CHANGING YOUR TWRP VERSION.
3.) IT'S JUST THE WAY YOU FLASH A ZIP FILE BUT HERE WHEN YOU GO TO THE INSTALL OPTION BOTTOM RIGHT CHANGE INTO INSTALL IMAGE.
4.) SEARCH FOR THE IMAGE AND FLASH IT. AND THEN REBOOT THEN REBOOT INTO RECOVERY AND HAVE FUN FLASHING OFFICIAL LINEAGE.
----SENT FROM LINEAGE ZUK.

Yep there is a mismatch... Are u using mokee rom??
From stock cos12.1 I came to cm13 ... Then I flashed many roms like RR, nuclear ROM, mokee, unofficial LOS even ZUI.
Before flashing official LOS I had official cm13 nightly.. but before flashing Los I wanted to try ZUI nougat so I took backup of Cm13 ROM through TWRP then clean flashed ZUI 2.5.306 based on nougat. I didn't find this ROM interesting so I restored my previous ROM that is CM13...
Then after few days I did clean install of this official Lineage OS nightly and started getting this error 7 while installing...

Internal data will be safe
Titanium backup can help to backup and restore... But unfortunately u have to clean install.. Unofficial rr rom (nougat)1st and then official Los.

If you use a custom ROM, you can download the Gapps zip file from https://opengapps.org (choose your Android version, the "stock" variant and click download).
Please can you write down installation steps to flash rom?

I'm sorry for my lack of accuracy.
Steps for flashing rom would be appreciated here. I already have custom Recovery. Gonna update Recovery too but no problem with that. Thank you.
This question is for the wise people around here:
What gapps should I install for this rom (Lineage 18.1)?
-TWRP updated to 3.5.2_9-0
-Backed up system running Fenix Rom V2 (in case I screw up)
I have a doubt about a zip file named 181-gt510wifi-july-10.zip. what is it for?
Should I install it? If yes, before or after rom install?
Any suggestions? Thank you.
Download all files to your ext.Sdcard
Install newest TWRP Version with Odin or TWRP
Backup your installed Rom
You have to do a clean install if you come from other Android Versions.
( if you come from Stock ,wipe also your intern Sdcasrd )
Flash your LOS Version
retiredtab - Browse /SM-T550/18.1 at SourceForge.net
sourceforge.net
Wipe cache and dalvik
Now you can install opengapps Android 11 ( for LOS 18.x ) ARM Nano or pico
