Wann wird es ein Lineage für Samsung Xcover 4, 5, 6 oder 7 geben? Es gibt nicht viele Smartphones mit wechelbarem Akku, SD-Karte und Dual-Sim. Die könnte man sehr gut weiterverwenden, am besten mit Lineage. #ReparierenStattNeukaufen #UpdatesStattNeukaufen

Pictures from the recent bird watching trip at Sultanpur, Gurgaon.

I saw lot of Cormorants, Painted storks, Ibis, different kinds of Egrets, Ducks, Kingfishers and Parakeets fighting with a snake (sorry no photograph of it)!

Apologies for the quality of the photographs, low effort captures using #FOSS Open Camera app using @lineageos phone.

I would have used https://farside.link/ to point to a privacy frontend instead of Youtube directly.
But current tests show that doing so almost never results in a playable video.
So for now you get to visit the nasty spyware-filled Youtube interface. I hope that you all use browser addons that help you mitigate that.

Would it be possible to install LineageOS on Samsung A53? It isn't supported, but Samsung A52 is, and they are very similar in the hardware aspect. Even so, it may have compatibility issues (if I get it there in the first place). Could anyone help me? Any info is highly appreciated!

Thanks

I used to know how to do this, but forgot (been a long time since I've used Lineage).

Don't know if "factory reset" is even the correct term here, but I'd like to wipe everything on the phone, files, apps that don't come bundled with the OS, everything except Lineage itself. I think you have to go into TWRP (???), and then . . . ? Anyway, would be much obliged for any help with this.

I just upgraded to Lineage OS 22. It looks almost exactly like 21 which looked almost exactly like 20...

I've just made a fresh install of LineageOS on my phone but when I open up Aurora store it offers to update "SIM Manager" with the app ID of com.google.android.euicc. Is the source code for this app accessible and should I update it through the Aurora store?

Hi guys! I have a question. In the wiki for my device installation there is no information about some files that are in the downloads page, like dbto.img and vbmeta.img. If they are not required to install lineageos on my device, why are they in the downloads page?

I'm updating my Pixel Tablet to December 27 Lineage 21 update. Does the update only include the actual LinesgeOS install (the ZIP on their website) or does it include the other files? So I update the boot.img as well? If yes, should I just flash the one from this device's page on Lineage site?

Anyone with a moto one 5g ace (kiev) that performed OTA update recently and got a boot loop out of it?

I use lineageos for microG, which is based on lineageos, and Today got an OTA update which I can't matches the same version as the one on lineage, but after attempting the reboot required by the update, the phone gets into a boot loop.

I haven't found a way to get out of the loop without losing data. Downgrading doesn't help, no matter if a major upgrade is attempted.

It looks to me this could be rather lineageos issue, since I got a past experience with a pixel 4a (5g), and at that time I lost all data attempting a factory reset that didn't even help at all. Later there came an update from lineageos, which I manually installed, and got the phone back, though with all data lost. This time I'd like to avoid losing data.

Any help or hint is appreciated.

I was following the installation guide and things were going smoothly until I started flashing the recovery.img

For some reason the phone started power cycling, which interrupted the flash. Unplugging and re-plugging it in seemed to resolve it, and it got back to bootloader mode. I flashed the recovery image onto it and tried entering recovery mode, but now it only goes to the bootloader, irrespective of the option I choose.

Is the phone screwed, or can I salvage this?

ED. Fastboot detects the phone when it's plugged in but adb does not

When one downloads a new update through the built-in updater, where does the file get put? I'm having trouble during the automated update process with the latest TWRP, and would like to do the dirty manual update

It appears that the new devices have been silently changed by Google to no longer allow you to have the same functionality you did before. Boot loader unlocking is now impossible unless someone can find an exploit.

Here are the images of the inside just in case its useful:

I don't know where else to post this. Please help spread the message about Google screwing us over.

I am planning for a TV Box + Display setup for my parents.

  1. Banana Pi M5 ( lineageos available )
  2. 32 inch HDMI Monitor ( or a non smart TV )

Can you provide your setup , pros/cons.

I especially like the Camera app as if feels very modern without all of the bloat. All the apps feel like they belong in modern Android. It is clear that lots of work has gone into the core apps.

Hello, as you can see in the following picture, I have some issue with an app, I think that media storage and external storage are used by some apps though I don't have any clue about which one, Does this happened to any of you ? For your information, my phone is a mi A1 that run on lineage OS nightly Tissot 20 : 20-20240605-NIGHTLY-tissot The problem happened before I made an update so it's probably not related

I hope I do not break any rule from this community

Have a nice day you all :)

If you go to setting>sound and vibration>media you see a setting called "Show assistant media recommendations" which is "based off of your activity". Because Assistant is capitalized, I assume it refers to google assistant. I have no gapps, so i dont have google assistant. anybody have ideas about this?

I've got a lineageos phone and I was just scanning my network to find my server and saw it had port 3283 open with the service netassistant. Apparently it's an apple remote desktop reporting thing, but I have barely got any apps installed. The apps I have are:

  • newpipe
  • osmand+
  • neo store
  • kde connect

I can rule out kde connect from this because it uses port 1714-1764. It is an official build with no Gapps.

Hello. I note that previous versions of the LineageOS Messaging app had support for including emojis. This recent version does not include such an option. The keyboard choices are simply either letters or numbers. Is there a way to once again have this option in the LineageOS Messaging app?

Note, I do not have Google Play Services installed. I rely solely on LineageOS along with some additional f-droid apps (and this is something I have always relied on since I began using LineageOS some years ago, starting with a Nexus 5 -- I now have a Google Pixel 4a running LineageOS 21).

solved: Going to Settings/System/Keyboard allowed me to enable the emoji option.

I want to stop using Samsung. But I can't install any custom ROM to my phone. My phone is Samsung Galaxy A51 4G. Is there a way to use Lineage OS via stable updates or any other ROMs.

23
 
 

Has anyone else come across this? I'm running 21-20240419-NIGHTLY-panther and I don't get notifications until I open the app, at least in Signal and WhatsApp, and I suspect Gmail too. I already set the apps to unrestricted battery usage (including the hard-to-find extra setting when you press to the left of the "Allow background usage" toggle ) and I disabled the "Battery Manager" (which I could only find by searching in settings, there doesn't appear to be a button for it in the settings, separately...)

Is there anything else I could try? I have a Pixel 7.

Hey !

On LOS 21, the app DeviceLockController is there, but it can't be stopped neither disable, at least from my side.

There's another one I don't trust, Android System Intelligence, but I could stop it and disable it.

Those two apps really are scary to be part of LOS. Is anyone aware of bugs on LOS about getting rid of them?

How about DeviceLockController? A reasonable way to disable it without risking too much bricking the phone in the process?

Thanks !

Currently Xiaomi 11 lite 5g NE is supported by the community and I would like to install the lineage OS on it. I would like to know (or where I can find this information) for how long my phone will receive updates or on average how long a phone stops being maintained once it starts being maintained. I would also like to know how long my device has been supported, whether recently or around 2021-2022. Thanks for your help
