If you wish to use the "real" Gapps, you need to use build variant A. In that case, there is no microG, only the patch allowing to use microG, and this has no further impact, if you use Gapps.
No specific advice on battery life.

Ok perfect thanks
nice rom

New builds available for download (TEST)

Hi all, new builds ready for download.
Same as last month, I could not test, since my son is still away.
However, as the device-independent parts definitely work fine, I simply have postponed applying kernel patches, therefore security string this time is 2019-07-01 only.
(Will patch the kernel later this month, when I have the opportunity to test)

A. Default LineageOS 14.1 with substratum and microG patch
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117909763
System Webview updated to M75

B. Hardened build with pre-installed microG and F-Droid
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117909762

C. Above hardened microG build with substratum patch
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117909761

Happy flashing - regards, M.

Is push notifications work or dont?

In case you use microG: In microG, you need to enable it: Device registration and Cloud messaging.

Do you plan to launch a rom with LineageOS 15.1?

 

[MSe1969]

Do you plan to launch a rom with LineageOS 15.1?

Currently not for Osprey.
Main reason is that my son (who's not living with us right now) uses the device, so testing opportunities are limited to his visits - good enough to maintain a stable release with ASB patches, but definitely not suitable to bring up a device to the next Android version.
Besides, no true "game changing" advantage...

 

[MSe1969]

I do not have themes anymore. Not even substratum. I use the B variation: hardened microG LineageOS build of yours. Does your advice stand still? I am double checking because in your falcon thread you stated it was safer if you removed microG-related files before dirty flashing a new update of the ROM.

Don't mix things - If you stay within the same build variant, you can simply dirty-flash.

Variant A = oms (i.e. no microG prebuilt) - available for falcon and osprey
Variant B = prebuilt microG (i.e. no oms) - available only for osprey
Variant C = oms and prebuilt microG - available for falcon and osprey

Regarding OMS:
When switching build-flavors from oms to non-oms (A => B or C => B) and you had been using substratum themes before, you must purge the compiled themes, restore first the standard layout, remove all installed themes and uninstall the substratum app before flashing the build variant B.

Regarding microG:
When switching from a build variant A, which contains the microG patch but no pre-installed microG components, to any variant having microG pre-installed (B or C) and you had microG installed as regular user-apps (e.g. downloaded from F-Droid), then you should uninstall all the microG apps first.
If you would like to switch from a microG build flavor to the oms flavor (A), you need to deactivate all microG apps before, this will uninstall any microG updates and make sure, that nothing is left after flashing the oms build flavor.

Hope that clarifies

Thought for a while you weren't updating the builds. It's just that you no longer make a post saying you did, but OP does receive the changes with the download link. Happy to have noticed that. Haven't updated since February.

I was always announcing builds, every month - I normally update
1. The OP (links and details),
2. the change log post (#2)
3. and I create a new post in this thread to announce (see e.g. posts 133, 139, 140, 148, 163, 176).
Noticed however this time, that I forgot last month to update the change log (fixed that now), but besides, I have always announced, so I am a little bit surprised that you got the impression that I wasn't building any longer...

@MSe1969 - Thanks for the reply. Could you consider replacing the stock Gallery application for the legacy QuickPic? It is by far the simplest and easiest gallery application I've stumbled upon ever. Such shame Cheetah acquired and bloated the hell out of it. Luckily, we have the legacy and signed version to avoid Google Play Store's updates. Give it a try and let us know what you think about it.

Regarding potter, I am soon getting it set up and will definitely try to build your ROM for that handset. I shall be in touch via PM soonish.

Hi,
my general approach is that I try to stay with LineageOS and also prefer to build things from source. However, I also add further stuff, mostly prebuilt. When I do so, it must be one of the following reasons:
- Modified LineageOS app for specific reason
- Delivering as prebuilt is a necessity, because it is not possible to do the same by simply installing as a user app

Your app can simply be installed as a user app, there is no issue with that and bundling it does not really bring any advantage over the individual install.

Regards, M.

I think you need to configure microG and enable device registration and cloud messaging

device registration and cloud messaging are ON but still no notification. @All Do you get notifications?

thx

Edit:

I have clean installed LineageOS 14.1 (A) and notification are working now!

1. Backup your data. use MyPhoneExporer Client APP and My Phone Explorer (for Windows users). For Backup your address book u must use a older version from the MyPhoneExporer Client APP but after install the newest Version. Otherwise u get an Error by copy data.
2. Use SD Card Formatter (Windows) to format SD Card and then copy LineageOS 14.1 unofficial (A), Open Gapps (ARM, 7.1, pico), Magisk 19.2 on the microSD card and put it back into your phone.
3a. Turn the Phone off.
3b. after press and hold Volume Down and press and hold also the Power button for 8 secounds (both) then select Recovery Mode (Volume down and Power button for OK)
3c. TWRP starts(must be installed)
3d. TWRP > Wipe >Advanced Wipe > erase everything except sd card (Only if u come from a other rom)
3e. Install via TWRP > install > select SD Card > LineageOS 14.1 unofficial (A), Open Gapps and Magisk without reboot after system reboot (allways wipe cache and dalvick)
3f. skip Google Play Store
4. Download and install f-droid Store via Browser (hxxps://f-droid.org)
5. Download the zip file: hxxps://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.fdroid.fdroid.privileged.ota/
6. install the Zip file via TWRP and system restart > f-droid > settings > activate Automatic install
7. Open Magisk Manager and search and install updates and after go to settings activiert Hide Magisk Manager
8. Install your Banking TAN APP via Aurora Store !!but DONT START IT!!
9. Open Magisk Manager >Magsik Hide > activate your Banking TAN APP and also turn off root (Magisk Manager >settings)
10. You can start your Banking APP and it should work fine. If u have still a problem delete APPS DATA from your Banking APP via titanium App and try to install Magisk again and do the steps again.
11. disable updates for Banking TAN Apps in Aurora Store. (Do not update your Banking TAN APP if u dont have to)
xx=tt
I hope this will help someone!

Auroa Service: Join Aurora on Telegramm there u get a Auroa Service zip files that can u flash with TMWP or Magisk Manager, Start Aurora Service and after start Aurora Store >settings > Install > chosse Aurora Service.

UPDATE MAGISK MANAGER > Start Manager> Setting restore Magisk Manager to old name > now u can update > after hide Magisk Manager again.

It would be awesome if someone could tell us how get LineageOS 14.1 (B) notification to work!

Usually, GCM works with microG, assuming you have the self test successful and done all necessary things and enabled dev registration and GCM - however, it may happen, that it does not work for specific apps...

Hi there. I'm rather enjoying this build but I have a question I'm hoping one of you can answer - should I blacklist updates to Google Services and such, or can I allow Aurora to update those components without messing the way this ROM was setup?
