How to enter flash mode

Press and hold Power + Volume Down + Home. Press Volume Up when prompted.

Installation

             Pre-Built image (Recommended)

Download the Nura zip file from the XDA Thread To flash the Nura zip file transfer the zip from the SDCARD to the INTERNAL STORAGE (IMPORTANT)

Go to install (make sure you select internal storage) press the file swipe to install let it finish reboot to system and enjoy!

           Using pmbootstrap (Experimental)

To create a zip to flash for twrp, run

$ pmbootstrap install --android-recovery-zip
$ pmbootstrap export

Then boot to twrp, select Wipe then select Format Data and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption and delete all files stored in the internal storage. Return to the previous menu and select Advanced Wipe, then select the Cache and System partitions and then Swipe to Wipe. To sideload Nura .zip package:

On the device, select “Advanced”, “ADB Sideload”, then swipe to begin sideload. On the host machine, sideload the zip using:

$ adb sideload /tmp/postmarketOS-export/pmos-samsung-chagalllte.zip

Note: Normally, adb reports Total xfer: 1.00x, but in some cases, even if the process succeeds, the output may stop at 47% and show adb: failed to read command: Success. In other instances, it might display adb: failed to read command: No error or adb: failed to read command: Undefined error: 0 which is also fine.
