Guides
- Installation
- Build for yourself
- Update to a newer build of the same LineageOS version
- Upgrade to a higher version of LineageOS (e.g. lineage-20 -> lineage-21)
Device Support
- This device is technically unsupported, as the 2nd Quarterly release of Android 14 tore out support for many things this device depends on. As such, this device gets monthly builds with device-specific fixes still, but they are built based on the February, 2024 security patch level.
Special boot modes
- Recovery: With the device powered off, hold Volume Down + Power until the LG logo appears, then release Power for a second and hold it again until the recovery comes up.
Note: Accept the factory reset prompt using the hardware buttons. If you have done everything correctly, this will not actually reset your device but instead will boot the custom recovery.
- Bootloader/Fastboot/Download: With the device powered off, hold Volume Down, then insert a USB cable.
