Installation Instructions

(Notice: This has been tested on the Google Pixel 8 Pro (husky) on LineageOS 23.2, so installation instructions may vary!)

  • Complete and exit the setup screen of LineageOS if you haven't already. Skip this step if you have already setup LineageOS.
  • Plug in your phone to your computer and reboot into recovery mode. This can be done via various methods, so find how to enter recovery mode on your phone.
  • Go into "Advanced"/"Advanced Options" and press "Mount/unmount system", then press "Enable ADB".
  • Go back and go to "Apply update" and then press "Apply from ADB".
  • Go to your Terminal or Command Prompt, and start ADB via adb start-server if you haven't already done so. After that, run adb devices and check if your device is detected like this for example: 3B171FDJG003NC sideload.
  • Run adb -d sideload <apm-zip-file.zip>. An example would be: adb -d sideload apm-lineage-recovery-20260530-arm64-v8a.zip. LineageOS Recovery may say that the signature of the ZIP file is invalid or something -- Continue on with installation, as that is expected.
  • Once installation finishes, reboot your phone back to the system. The system should boot as normal.
  • You're finished. That's it.

Notes

  • All of APM and AMS are now essentially complete in terms of functionality and stability. Expect less updates due to this.
  • Pretty much all packages should be installable without issues now.
  • All of APM now works far faster than the previous versions.
  • I am now working and experimenting on making X11/XOrg stuff work via APM. Progress is doing pretty well so far.
  • Some bugs may still exist, so please remember to report any bugs to me!
  • Fun Fact: Both APM and AMS survive OTA updates via addon.d!
