Flashing an image that doesn't pass signature verfication seems not like a good idea. Please verify your image before flashing it.

Which instructions did you follow? The one from LineageOS has a section "Installing LineageOS from recovery". Please read the full instruction before doing anything. Have you followed the mentioned steps there already?

4.2.5 is available for me on LOS20. Are you sure you refreshed your repos? Just pull down in fdroid app.

Not a fix, but a workaround: use Fennec. Its Firefox with the telemetry parts removed.

Great to hear.

You can always address files via absolute or relative paths.

Relative:

cd /Users/rommmelll/Downloads/
adb sideload lineageos-recovery.img

or absolute:

adb sideload /Users/rommmelll/Downloads/lineageos-recovery.img

Maybe you want to learn a little more about paths to understand how to reference files.

I suggest you read a little further on that topic and play around with the terminal. Find some tutorial videos if that works better for you.

You're welcome. Hope you learned a little.

Please read and understand those prompts. Python missing the module pyasn1 (python3-pyasn1). Its mentioned in the readme as a requirement.

You can install it via pip3 also as described in the readme.

If you don't have pip3 installed on your Mac, I think you can get it via brew. I don't have a Mac myself, so I'm not entirely sure.

cd means change directory. Its a CLI (Terminal) tool to - as the names suggests - change the directory you want to work in. It our case the folder with the unzipped files.

Assuming your Mac username is "rommmelll" and that zip file is in your downloads folder, the path should be something like "/Users/rommmelll/Downloads/update_verifier-master". So the command cd /Users/rommmelll/Downloads/update_verifier-master should work.

Hint: you can use the tab key to auto-complete here. Type cd /Users/r and press tab and it should fill in to cd /Users/rommmelll. Terminal app will try to autocomplete everything after the last /, in this case r. If there is more than one option with r it will list them and you can specify it more with rom and press tab again. See this video for example, for a few more details.

Once you've cd'd into that folder you can continue with the python3 command from above.

Note: If you don't specify a full path, something like /Users/rommmelll/some/file.zip, the Terminal app will always expect the files you're referencing in the current directory. So either use cd as mentions above, or use full qualified paths. Use pwd (print working directory) to find out which path you're currently in.

Also have a look at some tutorials regarding the Mac Terminal.

As already mentioned in your former post, this is just to verify the integrity of the files. It's not a neccessary step, but could safe you from a bricked phone.

I think I have downloaded and installed Python 3 correctly.

To find out just open the App Terminal and type python3 and hit return. Your should see something like this

Python 3.11.3 (main, Apr  5 2023, 15:52:25) [GCC 12.2.1 20230201] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> 

Download the python script from the mentioned location: Green "<> Code" button > Download Zip. Unzip that stuff.

Open the Terminal again and cd into that folder. Then type

python3 update_verifier.py lineageos4microg_pubkey /path/on/your/machine/lineage-18.1-20230614-microG-jfltexx.zip

and see

Let's create a lively community over here.

Should we move / create a wiki, to prevent loss of information if something happens to the reddit wiki?

[–] khaosoi@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, I'm thinking more of a place to collect technical documentation / tutorials. No body wants to create a place of "alternative facts" in the fediverse.

[–] khaosoi@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Wikipedia is a great place for general knowledge and I don't wanna change that. What I'm looking for is a way to create wiki for a very specific topic, which could be attached to a lemmy community about that topic.

For example having a lemmy community about a certain programming language with a wiki containing documentation about that programming language. This isn't something you'd put into Wikipedia.

Wiki on fediverse? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Is there some application like a wiki in the fediverse? A place to gather and edit information together about a specific topic.
