How to enter flash mode

When the phone is powered off, press and hold Volume Up, Power and Home buttons to enter recovery mode.

Installation

Use pmbootstrap to build your own installation image.

$ pmbootstrap init
$ pmbootstrap install --android-recovery-zip

Flashing with heimdall fails, use android-recovery-zip (with a custom recovery like twrp)

$ pmbootstrap flasher --method=adb sideload
