The process of a piece locking is:
- touch stack (lock delay)
- locking (piece can no longer be moved. the main difference between the current timing information and what i saw is the lack of info on this phase)
- if no lines are cleared:
- if lines are cleared:
- line clear anim
- line spawn delay (line are)
- 2 frames (level is incremented)
- next piece spawns
Input isn't accepted on the first frame of a piece that just spawned:
- in 20g, pieces don't lock down on the spawn frame (when down is held), and lock delay doesn't start until the next frame either (even though the piece spawns on the stack)
- charged das doesn't kick in until after the spawn frame (you can't spawn one to the side by using das)

"internal values" below refers to these which afaik match the values currently listed on the TGM and TAP pages.
