Running into a bootloop trying to flash BeyondROM 9.2. I am coming from LineageOS 19.1 Official with Encryption disabled, TWRP 3.6.2_9-0, and Magisk 25.0, and G970FXXUFHVE1 firmware already flashed (requirement for LOS 19.1). I want to switch to this ROM for VoLTE support because of the 3G sunset/shutdown happening in T-Mobile right now.
From within my booted LineageOS 19.1, I created a patched TWRP 3.6.2_9-0 and set it in my external SD card. I rebooted into TWRP and flashed the image file, rebooted back into recovery again (not sure how to validate running a patched TWRP?).
Format data -> Yes, flash multidisabler again just to make sure encryption is off (was already off before). Proceed to flash BeyondROM-G97xF_HVE1_v9.2_20220516_xda.zip file.
In Aroma, chose:
1. Perform Clean Flash
2. S10e - G970F(D)
3. Install stock emojis
4. Ok Google (remapping Bixby)
5. Modded InCallUI
6. Use Beyond bootanimation 2
7. Checked all the boxes to remove all bloat
8. => Flash success. Back out to main recovery menu, select reboot -> recovery.
Stuck in bootloop. Any one else have success going from LOS 19.1 to this rom without flashing back to complete stock via Odin? For now I have recovered my LOS 19.1 install using TWRP backup I made before this adventure.

Edit: Working now. Flashed back to stock via Odin and G970FXXUFHVE1 downloaded via Frija: SM-G970F_5_20220510020400_olboeua0ey_fac.zip
Unzipped and flashed the 4 files: BL, AP, CP, and CSC via Odin, took a few minutes. Rebooted and was presented back with stock A12.
Used browser and downloaded Magisk Manager Canary APK via Github. Selected Install and patched my TWRP file. Grabbed the patched img file and combined it with the vbmeta-disabled.img, renaming them to recovery.img and vbmeta.img respectively, and stuffing them into a .tar file.
Opened up Odin again and flashed this new .tar file in the AP slot in download mode. Reboot to recovery using 3 button method and was presented with TWRP (presumably patched).
Went through same steps again, format data -> yes, flash multidisabler.zip, flash BeyondROM-G97xF_HVE1_v9.2_20220516_xda.zip and picked same options. This time upon Reboot -> Recovery no more bootloop and system is now sitting at Welcome Screen.
Verdict: Not possible to go from LOS 19.1 to this ROM without going back to complete stock first via Odin.
