Hi everyone
I have a LG710EM from TIM on V30c, last security patch 01.12.2020
I had LineageOS on tablets before and love the fact, that phones/tablets, which don't get any support from the vendor, can still be updated and that's why I'm here.
I have a few questions to not get into trouble applying all the information provided in this thread.
Q1:
I guess I have to take the following steps:
1. Update to V30h with LGUP
2. Unlock the bootloader with the "unofficial method"
3. follow the steps from "CLEAN FLASH : (If on A11/A12/A12L based rom other than Lineage 19.1)" with the fastboot/ORANGEFOX tips above that section
Is this correct?
Q2:
This phone is my "daily use" (and currently only) phone. I have a concern about the safety net (-A12) or integrity (A13), because I use Google Pay and other applications, which may rely on this check.
From what I understand, the problem is the unlocked bootloader. I saw a Magisk thread, but this requires to be rooted also and I don't know, if this works with the G7 ThinQ the same way.
Is it possible to use the LineageOS rom with the LG G7 ThinQ and still use all these apps like Google Pay, and if, how can this be done?
Q3 / Last one:
Would you propose to use already LineageOS 20 (A13) or use LOS 19 for stability reasons? If you propose LOS 20, is there a recommendation on GAPPS? (The recommendation for LOS 19 was mentioned in the thread.)
Best Regards, thanks for all the great work, greetings from Germany and looking forward to your answers,
Oliver
