Hi,
I’m new to using smartphone, because I wanted one on which I could install a Linux OS.
But well, I was given the opportunity to have a FairPhone 3+.
So, I wanted to change from stock Android to LineageOS.
First, I’d like to thanks @dk1978 and everybody who has been working hard to port LineageOS 17.1 to the FairPhone.
My problem is that the install process does not seem to work for me.
But since I have no experience, I can’t be sure if I have done things right.
I followed the guide given here : ✏ [ALPHA] FP3/FP3+: Complete guide for installing LineageOS which sums up every step to install LineageOS.
So, I did the following parts :
- OEM Unlock
- Bootloader Unlock
- Download lineage-17.1-20210201-nightly-FP3-signed
I then tried 2 things :
- fastboot boot lineage-17.1-20210201-nightly-FP3-signed.zip
creating boot image…
creating boot image - 668729344 bytes
downloading ‘boot.img’…
FAILED (remote: data too large)
finished. total time: 0.113s - adb sideload lineage-17.1-20210201-nightly-FP3-signed.zip
serving: ‘lineage-17.1-20210201-nightly-FP3-signed.zip’ (~47%) adb: failed to read command: Success
But on the Fairphone side :
Verifying update package
E: failed tp verify while-file signature
Update package verification took 52.2 s (result 1).
E:Signature verification failed
E:error : 21
Install from ADB completed with status 2
Installation aborted.
I’m at a loss of option.
Did I do something wrong ?
Do I really need TWRP like I could read from other posts ?
Best regards.
