You must have OEM unlocking and USB debugging enabled to use ADB/fastboot tools, to install a custom recovery, custom ROM/operating system, ect.
This is a guide how to enable developer settings, and do this.
-Connect your device in fastboot mode
-adb -d reboot bootloader
-Download the following files from here.
boot.img
dtbo.img
vendor_kernel_boot.img
Power off the device, and boot it into bootloader mode:
With the device powered off, hold Volume Down + Power.
Flash the downloaded image files to your device by typing:
Installing a custom recovery using fastboot
Download Lineage Recovery. Simply download the latest recovery file, named vendor_boot.img.
-adb -d reboot bootloader
fastboot flash vendor_boot 'vendor.img"
'vendor.img' is your img file
-Now reboot into recovery to verify the installation.
Use the menu to navigate to and to select the Recovery option.
If you want to install Google Apps add-on package (use the arm64 architecture), you can download it from here.
Reboot into recovery:
With the device powered off, hold Volume Down + Power. Then use the menu to select Recovery Mode.
Now tap Factory Reset, then Format data / factory reset and continue with the formatting process. This will remove encryption and delete all files stored in the internal storage, as well as format your cache partition (if you have one).

On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.
