[THREAD] How to flash LineageOS to the TB-X505F? - Thinkpad Tablet General

Heyeah,
after TWRP worked on the TB-X505F the tablet is now stuck at the Lenovo logo again, when trying to boot into LineageOS flashed via sideload. (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...1-for-lenovo-tab-m10-hd-tb-x505f-l-x.4424415/)
It says something about me flashing a OTA in this thread, i didn't do that, because i had no idea where to find it.
How do i flash a OTA over TWRP and how do i find the specified OTA?
Helb, i'm stuck \o/
thanks in advance, and lots of love. <3

[Q] Unable to install TWRP Recovery after CM12 YNG1TAS1K0 update

Hello Folks!!!
I was on a Rooted Stock 5.0.2 CM12 ROM with TWRP recovery, when I got the notification for an OTA update (YNG1TAS1K0). I found out that we had to flash stock recovery to install the update, so I did that, but the OTA update wouldn't install and kept throwing error saying something like "unable to update /sideload/". After multiple attempts, I finally flashed the whole ROM (cm-12.0-YNG1TAS1K0-tomato-signed.zip) via the stock recovery, and now I am on the latest stock build (YNG1TAS1K0). Unfortunately, I am stuck on the stock recovery now. Whenever I try to flash the TWRP recovery (TWRP 2.8.6.0 for Lollipop), it goes into bootloop. I have temporarily flashed stock recovery again to make my phone usable again, but I would really like to flash TWRP again and root it. Any advice/suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks. :highfive:

Need help to remove TWRP to install the latest oreo rom patch with the fixes

Basically I currently Have TWRP and MAGISK in the first version of the stock oreo rom now i have no idea how to update via ota because i have twrp as my recovery right now.
Any thoughts on how i could remove twrp and go back to stock recovery... long story short i needed twrp before because i was stuck in a boot loop and had to flash magisk via twrp to fix the loop. Thanks in advance.

It provides link to all roms (stable, beta & incremental) & Mi flash tool. Download the latest platform tools zip for windows & update your .net framework. You should also make sure you've installed your adb & fastboot drivers correctly.

HELP No recovery, usb not recognized

Its a shame.
7 years unlocking bootloaders, installing CWM or TWRP or Philz recovery, flashing rom after rom, not even one device bricked, and today, i messed up, i hope its not bad.
So the short version of what i did is that i flashed twrp.img trough and older version of twrp and now it wont boot into twrp, it says that it failed to verify the recovery image or something like that, and my laptop wont recognize the cellphone, the cellphone boots into the latest Havoc rom but without Gapps and without root because i did not install it beforehand, when in bootloader mode it just says that it could not recognize the device.
The long version is that i had Resurrection Remix, obviously an unlock bootloader, magisk etc... everything was fine until today that i tried to install Havoc, the installation went well but i found out that ambient display was not working, someone told me that the previous version of Havoc did not had that problem so i tried to flash it but it bootlooped for like 1hr, so i read that the version of TWRP provided by the OP was the way to get it to work, i downloaded the .img file and flashed it trough TWRP and tried to install Havoc again but i was stuck in a bootloop, so i flashed the latest Havoc build so i could download the latest version of twrp, i did not flash Gapps or Magisk because i was going to re flash the rom and then flash Gapps and magisk, so i downloaded TWRP and flashed trough TWRP and thats when the sh$& hit the fan, now it wont boot into TRWP and my laptop wont recognize the device, neither on android nor in bootloader mode.
So, thank you guys in advance for your help, tomorrow im going to try on a computer at my work and see if its my computer and if not, well, ill have to se what you geniuses come up with. thank you so much again.
Info:
Rom build number: opm6.171017.030.h1 or 20180811 android 8.1.0
TWRP: i started with 3.2.2-0 then i downgraded to 3.2.1-0 and the one that messed up everything was 3.2.3-0
By the way, I have a full twrp backup of when my phone was stock, (but no way to use it) T_T

HELP! S8 won't boot up!

I've messed everything up and now I'm devastated!
My S8 stucks at the very first screen (where it says: SAMSUNG GALAXY S8 - powered by android). It doesn't boot further this very specific screen. I have tried to update Magisk and Magisk Manager but only Magisk Manager seems to get updated successfully while the app suddenly says that the latest version of Magisk Manager required Magisk V19.XX hence I've tried to install it via TWRP. According to log screen, I've managed to install magisk via TWRP but after booting up, I opened Magisk Manager where it now says that Magisk isn't installed. I therefore boot into TWRP and tried to fix it since some apps of mine that required root access wasn't working anymore. So, I thought I must have lost root access. I once again boot into recovery, I uninstalled magisk and install an older version of magisk and magisk manager and also the no_verity patch. After that my Galaxy S8 won't boot up. It just stucks at the very first screen. My S8 (international version) is still on Nougat stock samsung firmware and I can enter TWRP but the phone remains freeze and stubbornly refused to boot up.
I'm quite devastated and I hope you guys can help me fix this issue!
Thank you!
Hi, well sorry if I am stating the obvious but I would format and install one of the many custom roms available...

Are there any solutions other than flashing a custom rom? Meanwhile, I have managed to flash Android 9 via ODIN and have TWRP installed but it won't boot up and stucks at the very first booting screens.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Have you tried just flashing stock rom only to see if it boots up. You may have to do a clean install.
Problem sounds like you haven't decrypted phone and flashed no verity zip file.
You won't need to flash a custom rom to fix this.
As for magisk have a look through this very helpful guide for installs and troubleshooting.

I've managed to solve this issue by myself. But still, thank you so much! It's the thought that counts ? And yes, I've figured out that I haven't decrypt my S8. But everything is absolutely fine now and I feel extremely relieved. It took me 1 day to fix this major issue and I've encountered lots of difficulties while trying to fix this like bootloops, system won't boot up and managed to stuck at the very first booting screen again and the phone boot past the first booting screen and stucks at the second booting screen, and also bootloader error and stuffs like where realization hit me that I can't restore my nandroid backup while still on Nougat because after restoring it won't boot up. I therefore managed to flash Android 9 and twrp. My S8 is now on Android Pie with custom recovery and rooted (via Magisk).
