package:- On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.
- On the host machine, sideload the package using:
adb sideload filename.zip
.Tip: Normally, adb will reportTotal xfer: 1.00x
, but in some cases, even if the process succeeds the output will stop at 47% and reportadb: failed to read command: Success
. In some cases it will reportadb: failed to read command: No error
oradb: failed to read command: Undefined error: 0
which is also fine.

(Optionally): If you want to install any add-ons, repeat the sideload steps above for those packages in sequence.
Note: Add-ons aren’t signed with LineageOS’s official key, and therefore when they are sideloaded, Lineage Recovery will present a screen that saysSignature verification failed
, this is expected, please clickContinue
.Note: If you want the Google Apps add-on on your device, you must follow this step before booting into LineageOS for the first time! - (Optionally): Root your device by installing LineageOS’ AddonSU, (use the `` package) or by using any other method you prefer.
- Once you have installed everything successfully, click the back arrow in the top left of the screen, then “Reboot system now”.

The first boot usually takes no longer than 15 minutes, depending on the device.
If it takes longer, you may have missed a step, otherwise feel free to get assistance
