   What happens if I install LineageOS stock over LineageOS for #microG?

     @Kurt good, I just want to fix the unmarked spoofing things in the self-check screen. But I want to keep microG and stuff as they are today.

     @cadusilva no problem. Doba factory reset if you want to install GApps

     @Winterstar well, if you're planing to install GApps, you should make a clean installation.

     But if you, like me, just want to use the latest LineageOS without waiting for the microG port, then it will mostly work.

     Things will be less integrated, but will work nonetheless. I ended up doing a clean installation of LineageOS and installing the microG bits manually.

     Now all the boxes in the self-check screen are marked. I was hoping to fix some problems, but this procedure didn't fix them [1].

     @cadusilva I also want to switch. Could you please tell us if you were successful?

     @cadusilva Thanks for reporting back! What exactly was not working when dirty flashing official LOS? I don't want gapps, I just want it to work as before, but with the official builds, because they get updates much quicker.

     @Winterstar the adb push command one time didn't work and the other time it did work, so I guess this have something to do with my phone.

     So YMMV. Then I decided to do a clean installation and the problems I was facing didn't go away.

     But I guess that, as the first link says, things should work just fine. It's best to create a backup first so you can recover if stuff go south.

     @Winterstar right now I'm going to install LineageOS 22 (Android 15) that just arrived.

     I think it'll only be available for my phone model in LOS-microG at least two weeks from now.
