Dear MicroG

I want to install LineageOS for microG.

I have read the instructions very carefully.

They say I only need 2 files.

BUT the download page https://download.lineage.microg.org/jfltexx/
lists 8 files (NOT 2).

Is there anyone reading this who has actually installed
" LineageOS for microG " on a smartphone who could help me with ONE QUESTION please ?

Q1. Which 2 of these 8 files do I need to use to successfully install LineageOS for microG on my phone ?

In case it's important -

phone is Samsung Galaxy S4 GT - I9505 jfltexx,

with the latest stock Android 5.0.1

I am using a Mac with Mac os (not windows) and Heimdall (not Odin).

Yours sincerely ROMMMELLL

Are you following these instructions?

First of all, the 4 files ending with sha256sum are just checksum files to avoid corrupt downloads.

Probably the two files the instructions mentions and you are looking for, are:

I don't know jfltexx and have only skimmed the instructions. Please read them carefully and always double check.

Thanks K. That makes good sense. I will keep on reading.

I am following these instructions. (I should have included that in my Q.)
