Hi everybody!
Bootloader unlock clock started today [emoji846]was wondering, which rom to install first? Working fp scanner and fp gestures, nfc-yes and good, comparable to stock, battery backup? I'm little bit confused about two file systems, which one to choose? Should I have an SD card or internal storage will be good for starters?

Regards Andy.

I'd recommend something simple such as the official Lineage 15.1 ROM, it's full of features, very stable and receives frequent updates via OTA. There is some discussion in the Lineage thread about what file system to use, however it's been working perfectly for me on ext4

An sd card may be helpful for storing files on if you plan on installing a bunch of ROMs however it's not necessary.

About changing file system, can I do it under twrp or some other tool?

You can do it under TWRP

Go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> select the system partition -> change file system -> select ext4
Waiting for Friday [emoji846], than my Bootloader will be unlocked. I downloaded all the things necessery and will start testing [emoji846], Thanks.
