How to enter flash mode

Hold down POWER + Vol Down while booting to enter Flash Mode.

Installation

As some features are still in development for this device, the kernel needs to be built from source using envkernel. To do this, you'll need a copy of envkernel.sh, and the latest kernel tree for the device. Once you have those, and you have run pmbootstrap init, run the following commands:

cd /path/to/linux/kernel
source /path/to/envkernel.sh
make msm8916_defconfig pmos.config
make -j<cores>
pmbootstrap build --envkernel linux-postmarketos-qcom-msm8916

After that, proceed with installation as usual.
