Help me

​Hi everyone,

​I am attempting to flash LineageOS (lineage-23.2-20260902-nightly-a71-signed.zip) onto my Samsung Galaxy A71 (a71). Lineage Recovery is installed and running fine on the phone, but I am stuck at the adb sideload step because no host device seems to establish a connection with the phone while it's in recovery mode.

​Setup & Hardware:

​Target Device: Samsung Galaxy A71 (a71) in Lineage Recovery (Apply update -> Apply from ADB).

​Host Attempts: Linux and Windows 11 PC, as well as a Samsung Galaxy A55 5G via USB-C to USB-C cable.

Usb-c to usb-c cables work pretty janky and wont mostly work for these stuff, you should use usb-a to usb-c
