Details:
SELinux permissive for now

OpenGapps for Android 8.1
Flash Magisk to root and avoid Google issues

Just flashed it and it seems to be working fine. The only problem i have with it is that it's missing the widevine drm blob and without it apps like netflix won't work. There are a lot of commits on lineage gerrit. Can you maybe take a look at it?

I kanged angler's widevine blob, just like others did on lg g3 / opo, and widevine is still not working somehow huh

Also, Lineage has picked up network usage monitoring support. I will post an updated zip later.

Can anyone share the right roomservice.xml for home building?

Checkout the latest open commit on the official gerrit for an updated device tree. Use the kernel I linked in the first post and a normal vendor.

It will fail to build on display/gps/maybe other stuff, take a look into the open commits for those on gerrit too and cherry pick the fixes.

On the build I mentioned, I'm delaying it until more stuff is in (which there seems to be now). So one may be coming later today.

Here is the aforementioned new build

- Added Privacy Guard
- Added LiveDisplay tile
- Removed NFC (it was broken anyway and was causing battery life and phat logcat issues)
- More stuff I forgot that I read on gerrit

Download link on the main post has been updated. Also, Download here too.
Can you add animated pixel navbar?

thanks, wonderful rom! .. one annoying thing is during calls when using the speakerphone people on the other side hear an echo.

    Updatelord

    Hammerhead changes:

    • New GCC 4.9 built kernel with specific krait optimizations, no placebo this time, actually faster. Programs can now use hardware divide (wow, such an advanced operation!)
    • Re-adds treble OMX, again.


    Upstream lineage changes:

    • Ultra fast hosts file parsing due to memory caching. Adaway should work much better now.
    • No wallpaper tint anywhere polluting lockscreen, notification shade and others.

    I just bought a Mi A2 and suggest anyone still using the N5 does the same. It's had a good run.

    It could've been much more if it wasn't for the sad state of affairs on the open source world. (blame qcom and google) Maybe one day linux-mainline fully supports the device and something can be done, but at that point few N5s will even be alive. Check out postmarketOS wiki and links on the matter.

    I will keep posting builds until official 15.1 is released. My N5 is still alive, now living his retirement as a dedicated TOTP device.

    UPDATE

    YES

    After fighting random issues for a month, it is here.

    Updated lineage sources. Very smooth for some reason.

    Work is being done upstream for HAL1 cameras. We may have working camcorder soonTM.

    It's been too long and I haven't kept up with new features much. So this build is build your own changelog, or changelog as a service.

    Anyhow recommended update.

    Download

    Next build will be on the just released GCC 8.1 and will be posted soon.

    Update

    Lineage now has support for snapdragon 800 based phones out of the box. No need to patch it to build anymore, we just need the device tree/kernel/blobs.

    Changed buildserver. Updated lineage sources. LineageSDK, styles API and a few other things are in.

    Download


    Don't use without Magisk >= 16.3. If google is giving trouble, clear play store data.

    Also, recommended google camera
