    Hi,

    I have a moto g4 plus and I am trying to install lineage 15 but the documentation at https://cyanogenmods.org/forums/topic/lineageos15-moto-g4-plus-lineage-os-15-android-oreo-rom/ does make it clear if I need root or not.

    I probably dont have root in my phone cause I instaled a root checker app and it said my phone is not rooted. Howerver I already installed TWRP and the ENABLE OEM is already active in my smartphone. Is it ok to me proceed with the instalation of Lineage 15 without having root?

    Root is not needed if you are flashing using TWRP recovery mode.
