About sideloading betas with ADB on A55.

It's not possible to sideload OneUI 7 beta with the update.zip on recovery and adb.
So me and another xda user (yasen24) saw that samsung is using an new type of update file. Probably when samsung started using seamless updates (on the A55) seems like they changed the structure of the OTA files, using a structure like google's A/B updates. using an payload.bin.
Seems like adb and recovery do not know how to handle it or just samsung limited it.

So for now i posted a method that maybe could work (not tested):

(You need version AYC8/AYC8/AYC6)

For more in depth info on the new OTA files check this:
