tested version: lineage-15.1-20180314-UNOFFICIAL-clark

First of all: wow this is a nice running rom, more fluid than ever before on my device, so props to HashBang

But with almost every new ROM, I noticed a few Bugs (some of them are probably knwon issues but I’ll report them anyway):
– the device is not able to play or record any sound
– for some reason, some games chrash immediatly after launching
– substratum is not able to theme the device

Hello,
after following the steps above i am stuck in the bootloop page,
i was on lineage-14.1-20171227-144801-UNOFFICIAL-clark.zip
thanks for helping

[Linux User]

I’m attempting to install lineage-15.1-20180513-unofficial-clark and I get “ERROR: 7 This package supports bootloader(s): 0xA050, 0xA052; this device has bootloader 0xA01C.” I am attempting the install on a XT1575 clark device which I have previously been running LineageOS 14.1 without problems. Any way to whitelist this bootloader?

[Linux User]

Can you tell me which TWRP are you using?
Can you use the latest TWRP available for your device and try installing once again?

[Linux User]

3.2.1-0 which is the latest for clark.

[Linux User]

Okay got it. My apologies for interpreting this wrongly.
Looks like you have a bootloader version of A0. 1C but the build is only for A0. 50 and A0. 52.

The MBM Version tells you the bootloader version.

Can you flash the following stock ROM which has the A0. 52 bootloader and then try installing this LineageOS 15.1 for Moto X Pure?

I’ll give it a shot. Can I just use TWRP to flash that stock ROM? Also, can you confirm that bootloader will not be locked?
