  • Note: this is not the same combination for the download mode.

Then go to Wipe + Advanced Wipe to wipe the following partitions:

• Cache
• Dalvik

Then go to Advanced/ADB Sideload, swipe to the right, and execute adb sideload lineage-xxx.zip on your computer.

• When it shows adb: failed to read command: Success on the PC, and Exit code: 1.000000 in TWRP, it has suceeded.
