There are two possible hardware configurations of this phone regardless of model number. Some phones were released with a Sony IMX 175 rear camera sensor, while others with a Samsung s5k4h5yb rear camera sensor. As such, we’ve separated this devices builds into two separate builds. The procedure to distinguish which to use is as follows:
11+
12+
- Make sure to be on the latest stock firmware of your variant (you can check updates with Settings, Updates);
13+
14+
- Make sure the rear camera is working on the stock ROM;
15+
16+
- Open the phone app and dial *#*#34971539#*#* to access to the hidden menu;
17+
- Tap on ‘Phone/Cam FW Check’ and take note of the numbers shown in the notification:
18+
- For E08QT, install the s3ve3gjv builds
19+
- For B08QT, install the s3ve3gxx builds
20+
I you are not sure what you used, you can safely restart here and pick the correct image and recovery.

As a first step, you need to boot into the bootloader. A bootloader is the piece of software,
24+
that tells your phone who to start and run an operating system (like Android). Your device should be turned on.
25+
Then press 'Confirm and run' to reboot into the bootloader. Continue once it's done.
26+
command: adb_reboot_download
27+
- type: call_button

In this step, you need to flash a custom recovery on your device.
30+
Press 'Confirm and run' to start the process. Confirm afterwards to continue.

Unplug the USB cable from your device. Then manually reboot into recovery by pressing the *Volume Down* + *Power buttons* for
36+
8~10 seconds until the screen turns black & release the buttons immediately when it does, then boot to recovery with the device powered off,
37+
hold *Volume Up* + *Home* + *Power*. Confirm when the recovery screen appears.

41+
In the next steps, you finally flash the selected OS image.
42+
Connect your device with your computer with the USB-Cable.
43+
This step will format your phone and wipe all the data. It will also remove encryption and delete all files stored
44+
in the internal storage. Then the OS image will be installed. Confirm to run. This might take a while. At the end your phone will boot into the new OS.
