        @zenfunk Nono you need adb for installation

        Download mode comes at the end to flash the kernel. Was this unclear from my text?

          Mistake on my end, I ran the joined up commands on the bottom first and while not pushing the images to the device first, it then went into download mode with the second comand, so I assumed that it had to be in download mode.
          I managed to complete the first command, but heimdall cannot download the PIT file and exits:

          Downloading device's PIT file...
          ERROR: Failed to send request to end PIT file transfer!
          ERROR: Failed to download PIT file!
          Ending session...
          

          Any hints?

            Hmm you used heimdall from my download ? Could be a version problem...

              @Flohack Also try another cable and/or USB port on your PC. It could be sensitive a bit

                Jup, version problem. It seems as if heimdall 1.4.1 from the Ubuntu repos is no good, I compiled 1.4.2 and it seems to work. I am rebooting into UB ports right now.
                waiting....

                    @zenfunk Hmm strange, can you connect it to the PC, and see if you get any RNDIS adapter in the hosts dmesg log?

                      Yes, this came up. Do you have any md5sums for the files?

                        BTW, AFAIK I never was asked for my passwords during install as was indicated by your instructions.

                        Enter your local hostΒ΄s sudo password when prompted the first time
                        The second time, enter the intended device lock password

                          OK, I redownloaded the files, the checksums match. Reflashed with your heimdall (still no passwords though). Same result, the device hangs at the bootscreen, I even left it overnight. RNDIS comes up in dmesg. Any Ideas on how to get some logfiles off of that thing?

                            Sure, which IP does dmesg on the host tell you? Paste the relevant part of dmesg to a pastebin and link it here.

                                @zenfunk Ok that looks not so bad, use ssh phablet@10.15.19.82 to get inside πŸ™‚ - I will tell you what to look for, but basically use dmesg and /system/bin/logcat to get an idea whats going on. The phone has booted but is not able to get into graphics mode, we will find out why.

                                    @zenfunk Then please hold VOl-Up, Press power until you get the blue text for recovery. Then, in recovery, use cat /proc/last_kmsg to see what goes wrong there...

                                            @zenfunk Hmm what OS was installed before? Would you mind trying to reset to Android 5.1? It might have some effect, because otherwise I am not sure whats going on ^^

                                              it was lineage 7.1.
                                              I just reformated /data to ext3, but no improvement.
                                              There are two different kinds of s3 neos around. One with Sony and one with a Samsung camera module. May this be it (not sure which one I have. Will reflash android 5.1 (which one did you use) and then we'll see.
                                              Thank you very much for your time and efforts,
                                              Chris
