Installing e/OS on a Samsung J6+

no it does not
Im never gonna be fast enough
as soon as l unplug the samsung starts

Yes l only copy paste…
And for what you asked me to find l looked for it here…:woman_shrugging:
https://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/heimdall

So don’t do force reboot button combination,
go direct to recovery button combination

I get to the wrong recovery mode

cant we do something from that one?

Is it difficult to read ?

A different programme heimdall-frontend is not installed.

It is difficult to understand … and l see no difference wether a program is installed or even running lm on via far always…

Yes, reboot to bootloader…

I am getting that…

Ok !
KG status : prenormal
must be changed to an acceptable state,

But i believe the instructions in Know your hardware - Samsung can give better result…

we noticed that

Yes it was
But now its gone we managed a workaround

Samsung

The 7-day buffer period discussed in this section will impact users of a brand new phone. During the Prenormal period, you can NOT flash any non-Samsung binaries. It would be a good idea to use the phone with a SIM card and online with wifi during this period.

I should do that ?

Yes …

And then it would change by itself ?
My Sim is my wifi will it be ok ?
And l suppose l must never update the phone …

It is running last Samsung version so no more update…

Hello…

Today l have this in the bootloader…
Is it an improvement ?

Yes, you can have a go to flash TWRP now.

Good …
Will try later…

Almost there…

the first part was ok so l guess I have done that part ok

You can take a copy of the Heimdall file and put it in the folder where “twrp_3.3.1-1_J610x_28719.img” is stored,
then, from this folder you can open a terminal and run :

./heimdall version

v 1.4.2

./heimdall print-pit

The device should reboot to system, let it boot,
Then reboot to download mode and run :
This is when I get an error

cate@cate-1011PX:~/Downloads/Samsung/twrp_3.3.1-1_J610x_28719$ ./heimdall flash --RECOVERY twrp_3.3.1-1_J610x_28719.img --no-reboot
ERROR: Failed to open file “twrp_3.3.1-1_J610x_28719.img”
cate@cate-1011PX:~/Downloads/Samsung/twrp_3.3.1-1_J610x_28719

Prior to flash it, You must untar the file provided by @ashyx (twrp_3.3.1-1_J610x_28719.tar) that is designed to work using Odin

I see no .tar but a .img ?
Ok here l have a .tar but it is the zip file … that l did extract

And then in the created folder l copied heimdal and opened the terminal from there…
