Cool change of RELIEF, there is some positive headway at work after I pushed back (I think - at least it's less aggressive/antagonistic than before)

And I am proud of myself for very slowly getting through several roadblocks in upgrading my hopelessly outdated ROM after 7 years, which has had half arsed root and all kinds of other mods chucked in over the years. So far I have:

Backed up all photos
Backed up all apps and data with Titanium Backup
Figured out how to get that backup onto my PC (no SD card slot in phone)
Flashed a new version of TWRP - bad idea. Panicked as phone would drain completely flat if it tried to reboot into recovery
Panicked further as fastboot wasn't working
Had a cuppa and deep breaths and figured out how to update the drivers (after some force close voodoo). Got fastboot to work, yay.
Excavated the internet, found a 2017 dated release of TWRP and flashed that. Worked, thank fuck.
Turned the house upside down looking for an USB OTG drive that I swore I had, to do a nandroid backup. Finally found an adapter
Now trying to troubleshoot why TWRP can't detect the USB. Doing a full format of the drive
Found out I had FIVE previous nandroid backups on my phone's internal storage from 2017 wtaf, deleted those and have enough space on internal. Nandroid backup DONE.

...now to do a full wipe + factory reset, flash the latest stock ROM, hope to fuck that works then try Lineage 20... and if all that works and I can restore my apps and data I'm home free! 😅
