If you own one of these devices, you can now install the Android 12-based custom ROM by following the links below.

To install LineageOS 19 on these devices, you’ll first have to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recover like TWRP. If you’re not sure how to do that, you can follow the steps provided in our how to install a custom ROM and how to install TWRP guides. Once you’ve got that set up, follow the instructions provided on your device’s LineageOS Wiki link to flash the custom ROM.

Make sure to take a backup of your data before unlocking the bootloader or you will lose it during the process. In addition, download a suitable GApps package if you wish to use Google apps on your device after flashing LineageOS 19. The ROM doesn’t come with Google apps pre-installed, but you can follow the steps provided in our how to download and install the latest GApps guide to install Google apps.
