Unlocking Nexus5x - General Questions and Answers

I want to install TWRP for Nexus 5x. I'm following the tutorial I found here. I got stuck on the part where you flash TWRP the error on the console says 'FAILED. Device is locked.' can someone tell me how to change device state into unlocked.
P.S. I'm very new to this stuff I barely know anything.

Hey man thanks for replying but I fixed it I guess the ROM I was trying was not good so I used viperonem8 now and it works good!

Custom rom

Hello,
I wanted to buy a One Plus 6, to install a custom Roma, but I had several questions:
If for example I have an old phone, and I install a custom rom recent, it will upgrade the kernel?
Do you install non-official custom ROMs?
Do you install Gapps? (If I just want to play store I can get the apk play store, or there are frameworks?)

Looking for Kernel for GT i 9001 build GINGERBREAD.XXKQM

Hello,
I am trying to follow instructions I found on a German website for flashing my GT i 9001. In these instructions, reference was made to this forum, telling me to download the kernel for GT i 9001 build GINGERBREAD.XXKQM but I am utterly lost. Can anyone please tell me how to find this kernel? Thank you so much in advance.

Hello, thank you for your help, but I've come to the conclusion that I had better give up. The link to the kernel given in the second link below does not work (hotfile --> mpaa.org), and I am also unable to find some files referenced in the instructions I mentioned in my first post, which are from 2012 or so. So I am afraid that I might trash my smartphone rather than flash it. Best wishes, Arnim

Most current TWRP image for Sony Xperia Z5 Compact?

I am looking to install Lineage OS on a Sony Xperia Z5 Compact. I see links on the XDA developers thread but none of them are the current version. The official TWRP website does not appear to have an image for the Z5 compact. I want to make sure I am installing the correct and most current version. Can someone help?

Tried posting in there but because I'm a new member I am not allowed to post in the developer forum. Ho do we verify the integrity of these images uploaded here?

TWRP not showing the files on system

I have installed TWRP on my SM-A520F (a5ultexx) recently (TWRP version is 3.2.3-1) and I have found that I cannot see any of the files on the internal storage. It goes as far as the root folder, but beyond that, nothing. It does not even register that there is any capacity on there (I have 8GB of 32GB free). The photos below show more detail.
Screenshots:

Anyone else had this issue? Any fix? My version of TWRP is from twrp.me (the official site).
NB: I am using TWRP to install MagiskSU.

All right. Might as well get the admins to close this thread then.
