r/LineageOS

Hi! I'm on LineageOS 23.2 with MindTheGapps 16 on my Moto G200.

If I update to LineageOS 24 using the built-in Updater, does it update MindTheGapps automatically, or do I need to manually (downloading from girhub) reboot to recovery and flash MindTheGapps 17?

Hey so I installed lineage os 24 package for my galaxy a52 (a52q) which dropped on October 11th android 17 so after download at first it worked just fine but then after a while no apps were opening and just were stuck in a black screen if anything opened it took a lot of time and chrome Google searches were working but no website was loading even though internet connection is fine can someone help me what should I Do ?

Hi all,

Since upgrading to Lineage 24 on my Moto G84, I am seeing the LHDC bluetooth codec exposed. However, I am unable to get it to work properly. Whenever I attempt to change to it, the audio goes to my built-in speaker even though bluetooth headphones are still connected.

Has anybody gotten this to work? Where can I file a bug report? Really would like this working (it works on stock).

I want to express my huge gratitude to this project. I had never flashed a phone before, and this old device was generally very glitchy—though it did work okay. I flashed it with your system, and now it’s running Android 16. It gets updates every 1–2 weeks, which is far better than my Motorola 50 Neo. Overall, the system runs very fast compared to Samsung's software. The camera quality took a slight hit, but Google Camera works fine. All in all, if you have old phones, I’d definitely recommend flashing them and giving them a second life; the difference compared to how Samsung runs is night and day. Thank you!

Just like the title says, would flashing LineageOS save my pixel from Google's "lock down" that's going to happen soon?

I'm aware that it'll be (maybe) a one time 24hr wait period until you can sideload whatever you want but, given that big tech companies don't always keep to their promises or to their word, I'd rather just avoid it all together by flashing a ROM I'm interested in. I tried looking in different communities to see if someone may have asked a similar question to mine and possibly gotten an answer but, unfortunately I haven't seen anything that answers mine or similar questions (well there were answers but the way it was put didn't seem like it was informative or helpful).

I've done some research into this ROM specifically and I like it a lot. I've practice on my pixel 8 and I love how much more optimized it is. I flashed it I believe two or three days before October 1st and as I was flashing it I was also charging it and since then I literally haven't charged it at all, like that's how amazing this OS is!

So, to end my post, I hope my main concern and hopeful solution of flashing LineageOS on my pixel 9 pro will save it from Google's "lock down" and if you'd like you can leave your favourite alternative app or OS in the comments.

Thank you in advance 😎✌🏾

I am considering buying a Xiaomi to run LOS on it. Have been using Xiaomi for this in the past. Their unlock process has always been somewhat complicated, but it used to work 2 years ago. This seems to have gotten a lot worse lately.

I know someone who is trying to unlock, but he says he keeps failing because there seems to be some "unlock permissions quota" nowadays, an unknown but obviously low number of unlocks is allowed daily, and after that you get a "quota reached" error. He is trying since months now without success. I have been reading several reports of this issue in the internet, seems like this is common now. I believe if there is no acceptable solution to this, no one should buy new Xiaomi devices to run LOS anymore.

Has anyone actually managed to get these unlock permissions and unlock within the last 3 months? What is your experience with this process?

I flashed LineageOS 23.2 yesterday on my Moto G10 Power and It's such an upgrade, now I finally have something to look forward to in life. (Thank you devs!). I was wondering what y'all would consider to be the best camera app as an alternative to the default and I also wanted to ask if I'll be able to take ultrawides, macros etc from the dedicated sensor if I install GCam. Not that it matters just curious.

Hi, I wanna know how to hide the initial screen that shows the "Unlock bootloader" advertising ¿There is a flasheable file or something?

Hi all, might have done a great one here.
Installed latest dodge for my oneplus 13 that I have been using for the past 2 weeks.
All went well, but no mobile network was available. Tried changing a lot of settings but ended up trying to flash CPH2653_16.0.1.304.EX01_GLO by the guides I tried to follow and rebooted it to now it not booting.
Showing up in device manager as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008.
No success unbricking it.

My Pixel 8a, originally locked to T-Mobile but now currently unlocked runs LineageOS 23.2 and I just got a notification for Android 17, but it looks like it's an update from Google and not a part of LineageOS. I do have GMS services and I am rooted with Magisk.

I am currently using miui 13.0.3 and Android v 12

I need to flash lineageos latest buid 23.2 android 16

Which firmware need to flash first​ and how to check my current one

I switched to lineage today, and so far its pretty decent. Im using samsung s20fe 5g (r8q), the snapdragon one, and chose the nightly lineage os.

However I am unable to send any sms, and it is pretty annoying. Apperently its required for upi payments to work, and im stuck and unable to use it now.

Im not sure how to fix/debug it, if anyone has any ideas or knows a solution please lmk!

I just bought a G 5G 2024 (supported device) and may have to join my parents' Google Fi plan. Can I order a physical SIM, set up service on stock, and then flash LOS?

I've been reading through LineageOS's developer documentation and I find myself confused: one of the build steps mentions extracting proprietary blobs from an existing LineageOS rom as a requirement.

Which begs the question: how is new device support added to LineageOS?

As much as I have searched, there seems to be no mention of a way to generate the list of required blobs in proprietary-files.txt.

Let's take a Xiaomi device for example: one can download a full firmware image and then use something like this to get the partitions contained therein.

What is one supposed to do next? From my understanding, on modern Android devices all binary blobs should be packed as kernel modules in the vendor_boot.

And yet there are a bunch of partitions with names like bluetooth, dspormodem`. Does Android look in those partitions too for binary blobs? If so, since they are not mentioned in Google's AOSP documentation and therefore the naming des not seem standardized, how does Android even know about these partitions?
