[UNOFFICIAL][12.1] LineageOS 19.1 for Galaxy J6+ (j6primelte)

[SweptDevUwU]

Hello, I recently flashed this ROM (with SHRP) without gapps, and in the setup process some "Update LineageOS" option was checked. I didn't know what it did, so I left it checked.
Then, I wanted to flash gapps and found my recovery got replaced by Lineage OS Recovery. Now when trying to enter recovery a series of messages appear:
`E: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory`
`E: [libfs_mgr]Skipping mounting '/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/cache'`
`E: [libfs_mgr]Failed to open '/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/cache' No such file or directory`
and so on. Nothing can be mounted, nothing can be flashed.

Is this expected?

How you did got lineageos recovery flashed?
If you see, flashing zip have recovery.img image but will didn't got replace by default because flashing script is don't have any command to flash recovery.

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "j6primelte" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j6primelte" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: j6primelte; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););
ui_print("Target: samsung/j6primeltedd/j6primelte:9/PPR1.180610.011/J610FXXU3BSI1:user/release-keys");
package_extract_dir("install", "/tmp/install");
set_metadata_recursive("/tmp/install", "uid", 0, "gid", 0, "dmode", 0755, "fmode", 0644);
set_metadata_recursive("/tmp/install/bin", "uid", 0, "gid", 0, "dmode", 0755, "fmode", 0755);
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh", "backup", "/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/system", "ext4");
ui_print("Patching system image unconditionally...");
show_progress(0.900000, 0);
block_image_update("/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/system", package_extract_file("system.transfer.list"), "system.new.dat.br", "system.patch.dat") ||
  abort("E1001: Failed to update system image.");
show_progress(0.020000, 10);
run_program("/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh", "restore", "/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/system", "ext4");
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot");
show_progress(0.100000, 10);
set_progress(1.000000);

No any command use recovery.img, then you maybe just check a update lineageos recovery while setup wizard or flash with yourself....

OKAY THANKS BUT HOW I CAN FIX THIS PROBLEM?
1.If system can booted normally or adb is working

adb reboot download

and then, flash twrp again, (IF WON'T WORK, FLASH STOCK ROM AND TRY AGAIN!)
2.if system cannot been booted or adb is not working.
- try force shutdown by vol down + power button (if loop in recovery)
- sometimes you maybe got lucky that maybe boot to odin mode if system got catch cannot been booted.
- LAST WAY: IF YOU CANNOT DO EVERYTHING, IF YOU ARE ENGINEER OR KNOW ABOUT THIS, JUST GO TO EDL MODE BY TEST POINT AND FLASH STOCK ROM AGAIN MEAN YOU NEED OEM UNLOCK, FLASH TWRP, RMM FIXING AGAIN!

The same thing happened to me, I had to install twrp 3.1.1 but it stuck at the logo so I advise you not to install this version

too old twrp version...

data usage is mentioned as a issue and it won't be fixed

 

[leaderhawk0]

Is there any fix for flash light problem.

Is there any fix for flash light problem.

I tried a lot but nothing helps.
Found a temporary fix. While using camera app(or other), toggling between auto and manual flash fixes this.

 

[leaderhawk0]

worked thank you

Right now I have no problems with the rom except for the flashlight and audio being weak. For now, I use Volume Booster GOODEV as a temporary fix for weak audio, and I recommend putting it around 25%.

There was some mention of having to use TWRP 3.7.0 to flash this ROM. Since I could not find that version of TWRP for this phone (any help in this regard is appreciated), I just went ahead and tried with 3.3.1-0, and surprisingly it flashed without any issues.

The only problem is that when I try to boot into recovery after this, it just gets stuck at TWRP splash screen. I have to manually boot it to Bootloader (fastboot), and then nudge it to "Close PC Screen" in Heimdall (under the Utilities tab), otherwise I wouldn't be able to either boot into the OS, nor would I be able to turn the phone off (almost shat a brick thinking I've bricked the phone)

Anyone know what I could try to be able to boot into recovery again?

Also, did anyone try installing Magisk to boot without using Odin? I seem to only have the option to patch the boot image, but not to apply the patch from the app directly.

Here is the twrp 3.7.0. Try flashing it via odin

Thanks! Will flashing it this way cause the rest of the partitions to be wiped?
Will this go in the AP section in Odin?

Also, will I be able to flash the old version of LOS with this new TWRP? (17.1)

No, flashing won't wipe other partitions. And yes you need to flash it into AP section.
You can flash every other ROM including LOS 17

Hey there, me again, thanks for your answers!

Would it be possible for you to reupload that file? It's reported as a 0 byte file on Google Drive.

Here's the new link. Let me know if this works

Tried to flash it, but gives me a Fail in Odin (I did try to tar the image).
In the meantime I've downloaded it from here: https://sfile.mobi/AIcwXFJkha7
With that one I was able to flash and boot into TWRP successfully, but upon clearing everything and flashing LOS 17.1, I'm once again unable to return to TWRP, so I'm guessing 3.7.0 is not compatible with it?

Try this
1. Flash TWRP via odin (uncheck auto-reboot)
2. Reboot into recovery
3. Wipe req. Partitions
4. Reboot to recovery again
5. Flash Custom Rom
6. Reboot to Recovery again
7. Reboot System

That's the path I took, except I haven't rebooted to recovery after flashing. I booted into LOS, then after that I tried to get into Recovery, but it would stay stuck at the splash screen.
Tried to flash again in Odin, and boot straight into recovery, but it wouldn't budge at all...
