Can't find update file

This is my first update since installing Lineage OS. Does anyone know where the file saves to? When it reboots to TWRP I need to manually select the ZIP file to install and I can't find where the built-in updater saved it.

Thank you
 
I booted into Recovery, but TWRP is no longer able to decrypt my data. It's not asking for my password and using the built-in terminal fails. I tried on TWRP version 3.3.1.5 and 3.4.0.3. I recently flashed the Android 10 firmware from the first few posts, which is the only other change I've made lately. Is anyone else experiencing anything similar?

Installed the latest build along with the Odin files.

All good, no problems other than I have a Samsung case for it, normally when the case is closed it turns the screen off and locks it. On the 31st/8 build this is not happing. The screen stays on.

For anyone with interest in details about the sideloading/installation mechanisms:

After sideloading the same LineageOS ROM a second time I did observe that my changes to "/system/etc/hosts" have been preserved. So I became curious whether the sideloading really cleans the entire system partition. And indeed it does. The reason for the survival of the hosts file is shell script "/system/addon.d/50-lineage.sh". Quote: "During a LineageOS upgrade, this script backs up /system/etc/hosts, /system is formatted and reinstalled, then the file is restored".
Thus this and other scripts in directory "/system/addon.d/" (another example is "70-gapps.sh") lead to automatic adjustments of partition /system after re-installation. Thanks to LuK1337 for his advice.

Builds 20200824+ depend on Android 10 firmware, and thus from now on the recovery will abort the installation if you're still on Android 9 one.

You can update the firmware by flashing following Odin package:
- https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682890115
AP -> AP_T720XXU1BTF7_CL18864194_QB32199498_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta_OS10.tar.md5
BL -> BL_T720XXU1BTF7_CL18864194_QB32199498_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5

After the firmware update you should be able to flash newer builds.

thx! works extremely smooth the new build 31/8

    LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

    LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

    All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

    Instructions :
    • Download the latest build and gapps
    • Reboot to recovery
    • Flash the latest build and gapps
    • Reboot
    Downloads :
    Reporting Bugs
    • DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
    • Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
    • If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
    • If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
    Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

    -- bit more friendly stock -> lineage instructions --

    1. Unlock the bootloader
    - Connect to WiFi network
    - Enable OEM Unlock in developer options
    - Turn off the tablet
    - Boot to download mode manually by plugging in USB and holding all the buttons for few seconds
    - Follow instructions on the screen
    2. Connect to WiFi network and make sure OEM Unlock in developer options is still checked
    3. Flash custom VBMeta image ( https://dl.twrp.me/gts4lvwifi/vbmeta.tar.html ) in Odin ( use AP slot )
    4. After flashing VBMeta, boot to stock. It'll likely ask you to wipe data, if so do that
    5. Connect to WiFi network and make sure OEM Unlock in developer options is still checked
    6. Now you can flash TWRP ( https://dl.twrp.me/gts4lvwifi ) in Odin ( use AP slot once again ), for convenience you can hold volume up while flashing it so that you boot to recovery right after it's flashed
    7. Install Lineage × whatever else you need ( gapps, addon-su, ... )
    8. Format data
    9. Reboot ( make sure to not install TWRP app when TWRP asks you to )

    Hi, 20190928+ OpenGapps builds should work just fine without doing anything special. B-but there's a catch, you'll need to update to TWRP 3.3.1-4 or newer ^.^
    Have fun~!

    Also OpenGapps apparently moved their builds there ~ https://sourceforge.net/projects/opengapps/files/arm64/beta

    Did you perform a full wipe before flashing?
    Also how did you 'kill' the setup wizard?

    I started with my device running LOS16 already. If you're coming from stock, you should stick to the instructions for the LOS16 installation in the other thread - just use instead of LOS16 image the LOS17 image.

    If you have already LOS16 on the device:
    -> Boot to Recovery
    -> install LOS 17 image
    -> if desired stable Magisk for rooting
    -> if desired these openGAPPS (was told to use them - they worked fine)
    -> FORMAT data (wipe doesn't do the trick, as it doesn't do it when installing LOS 16)

    After facing the problem with the setup wizzard I was told to simply delete it.
    Boot to Recovery, mount system partition and open the terminal.

    The command is:
    rm -rf /system/priv-app/SetupWizard

    After that, the wizard is gone and you can boot to system. You'll have to manually go through the settings to set up everything though.
