 autra | I can have a go at documenting that. Good first contrib ;-) | 21:11:48 |
| autra | is it related to the avb keys in step 4 of https://docs.robotnix.org/installation.html ? | 21:12:03 |
 pentane (DECT CYPT/2978) | isn't AVB disabled on Lineage by default? | 21:12:55 |

The following instructions are specific to Pixel phones using either the Vanilla or GrapheneOS flavors. For LineageOS, please refer to upstream device-specific documentation on how to install LineageOS builds on your device.
Ah yes, seems to be that way
| 21:13:06 |
| Atemu | No that's for when you've signed your own build with your own key and want to enable verified boot | 21:13:19 |
| Atemu | That's generally not recommended for LOS though | 21:13:39 |
| Atemu | And I don't know whether AVB even works on the FP3 | 21:13:51 |
| Atemu | I know that it doesn't on FP4.... | 21:13:58 |
| autra | It would be surprising it works on FP3 then. | 21:14:21 |
| Atemu | No I IIRC they just fscked up with the FP4 | 21:14:39 |
| Atemu | * No IIRC they just fscked up with the FP4 | 21:14:44 |
| Atemu | Could be that they didn't with the FP3 | 21:14:54 |
| autra | you know what? I think it might explain one time I lost all my data 😆 | 21:15:00 |
| pentane (DECT CYPT/2978) | Lol | 21:15:09 |
| autra | because I didn't know about that. | 21:15:18 |
| autra | (no big deal, because I can reconstruct about everything, just time lost) | 21:15:38 |
| Atemu | That sounds more like you enabled AVB without setting your keys | 21:15:52 |
| Atemu | When I meant "broken" I meant that (IIRC) it doesn't properly verify the boot and you can just boot anything | 21:16:20 |
| autra | Thanks again! | 21:19:44 |
| autra | I'll try that but tomorrow, because some stuff are not meant to be attempted too late at night 😄 | 21:20:28 |
| pentane (DECT CYPT/2978) | i feel that lmao | 21:20:42 |
| pentane (DECT CYPT/2978) | good luck! | 21:20:44 |
| Atemu | Also, always make backups! | 21:21:01 |
| autra | I feel that as long as I don't screw up the recovery partition, I cannot really brick my device right? | 21:22:45 |
| Atemu | You can even lose that | 21:23:06 |
| Atemu | The lynchpin is the bootloader/firmware | 21:23:15 |
| Atemu | As long as you have fastboot and flashing is unlocked, the phone is easily recoverable | 21:23:31 |
| Atemu | If one of those conditions aren't met anymore, ...good luck | 21:23:52 |
 @samueldr:matrix.org | (there are some phones where the fastboot protocol in bootloader will not accept to flash images when locked) | 21:24:00 |
