The -p ***platform*** parameter currently accepts ***neon***, ***arch*** and ***edge***. Edge rootfs is the latest development snapshot of Plasma Mobile and the platform recommended for testing new features and bug fixes. It will download all files required and store them in cache subdir, e.g. for Nexus 5X (*bullhead)*: - pm-rootfs-20180124-113114.tar.gz (Plasma Mobile rootfs) - recovery.img (TWRP recovery img) - system.img (Halium image containing the hardware adaption for each device) - boot.img (Halium initrd) Then the TWRP Recovery img is used as a tool to flash all other components to the target device. Note: The above could take quite some time (15-20 minutes) and require to enter your password to continue. ### After Flashing is done If successfull, you should automatically see the Login Screen. The password to unlock is ‘1234’. (the username to enter the login prompt for your phone from an adb shell desktop terminal is ‘phablet’, password is ‘1234’).
