    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][9.0.0][beryllium] LineageOS 16.0

    Anyone found a way to simulate the "Hide" option for the notch with the status bar in the official build (like we had in unofficial build)? So annoying with the icons being blocked by the notch. Tried Nacho Notch and a few other apps but no luck there.

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][9.0.0][beryllium] LineageOS 16.0

    Sorry for quoting myself but my stupid move of upgrading from an unofficial Lineageos to the official has me thinking I've got to clean flash to get my phone up and running again. Assuming i have to do a clean re-flash, how can I minimise the effort to backup and restore the apps I had? I can...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][9.0.0][beryllium] LineageOS 16.0

    Aaargh I did the same thing (flashed to 9.3.21-9.0 vendor firmware with official 20190322) and it rebooted into recovery after the "Lineageos" logo stayed on screen for a long time. My previous running build was 20190206 unofficial was so I stupidly tried flashing that over as an attempted fix...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][9.0.0][beryllium] LineageOS 16.0

    Thanks! For anyone else having this problem, this fix worked. Didn't have to disable the accessibility service explicitly IIRC, which was Fluid Navigiation Gestures - just had to set the screen lock again to a password. So now TWRP requires a password to mount the filesystems.

    Anyone able to explain why I don't need a password to get into TWRP when LOS says my phone is encrypted?

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][9.0.0][beryllium] LineageOS 16.0

    I already have a password I need to enter whenever I restart the phone into LOS (under Screen Lock settings), but not with TWRP. Although under Settings section for Screen Lock for Swipe, "Pattern", "PIN" and "Pattern" all have the following text under them - "Because you've turned on an...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][9.0.0][beryllium] LineageOS 16.0

    Is this under the Screen Lock setting? Wouldn't the phone need SOMETHING to decrypt the data on startup? Although I currently do NOT need a password when entering TWRP (where I can see the entire contents of the phone when rebooting into it without a password or any security-related...

    Post [ROM][OFFICIAL][9.0.0][beryllium] LineageOS 16.0

    This is how I check: Settings -> Security & Location -> Advanced -> Encryption & credentials -> Encrypt phone (and this should show "Encrypted" under it if it's encrypted, which it is for me) I personally have never flashed the decryption disabler and whenever I upgrade with dirty flashes of...

    Post app to enable fingerprint gestures to access notification panel?

    Anyone got one of these fingerprint gesture apps working with the unofficial LineageOS 16 ROM? I've tried a few but can't get any of them to work.

    Post Best phone to upgrade to from Mi5/MI5S?

    No separate 3.5mm/headphone jack. :( Looks nice though. I refuse to get wireless earphones or use any dongle. I bought some nice wired earphones not too long ago. Sounds like the Mi7 might be out sometime this year too (but, again, probably won't have a 3.5mm/headphone jack).

    Post Best phone to upgrade to from Mi5/MI5S?

    Thanks for those. Mi Note 2 and orignial Mi Mix are a bit old (hey, one of the earlier posts has made me only look at 2017 or later phones). The Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro phone is a bit heavy at around 180gm (my 64gb Mi5 is 129gb). The LeTv/LeEco phnoe have two, more-recent releases that look...

    Post Best phone to upgrade to from Mi5/MI5S?

    Thanks for the suggestions so far. I didn't consider the Mi6 and a few other Xiaomi phones becasuse I was using an old GSMarena saved search where I specified band 28 had to be in the phone, but I don't actually need that band now. Aaargh, the Mi6 (and upcoming 6X), Mi Note 3 and Mi Mix 2 all...

    Thread Best phone to upgrade to from Mi5/MI5S?

    I've had an MI5 for a couple years and the screen is cracked and close to dying. I was thinking of buying an MI5S as a replacement but feel like I could get a better phone as it's TOO similar to my trusty MI5 even. My specific, additional criteria includes it being similarly sized...

    Post MI5 Lineage OS 14.1 QC 3.0 tests and findings

    OK, Quick Charge (QC) is working again for me, and also displaying "Charging Rapdily" for the first time for me on Lineage 14. I think I recall a mod on the official MI5 thread would recommend updating some other firmware earlier this year to fix QC (I think it was a small component than the...
