LOS 17 fresh install - some apps just don't work I tried to dirty flash from LOS 16 and it failed - boot animation for 24h with no progress. When I tried to reenter TWRP it asked for the decryption password. So I formatted the sdcard, reinstalled everything in one go with sideload (LOS 17.1...

thanks for answering but can you explain how that would solve the mentioned problems? I had installed LOS 16, fingerprints were working (didn't check for WiFi randomized MACs). Then I updated to LOS 17, suddenly WiFi was using a randomized MAC with no option to switch it off and revert to...

stuff missing in settings I happily installed this ROM (bought a broken device for fun, installed a new display). First I installed LOS 16 but then I found that there's a 17.1 - thanks for that. Things I noticed: 1. with 16 I had stored 3 fingerprints, and with 17 they're gone - I can't unlock...

revert xt1926-3 to factory (2020) The latest factory image I downloaded from lolinet does not contain 2 files for system_b, only one, and it's named differently, so imho you have to replace the 2 above fastboot commands with the following (taken from flashfile.xml inside the download)...

rebooted, flashed Magisk again, and this time it works! Apart from the red flashing LED everything looks good. Thanks very much for your help!

I flashed 3.3.1-P207 a few minutes ago and still fails to install Magisk. Booting is ok although the red light is flashing all the time until start process is done. Magisk install in the manager app says "unknown image format" for failure reason.

success - mostly I installed the latest zip and it still blocks at the power-on screen. Before wiping I wanted to try some more and uninstalled Magisk. This was mostly successfull - booting went on, the only "problem" now is a constantly flashing red light while booting. The flashing stops...

you're not alone I had the same problem. I was on 0628 and wanted to update to 0906, but the phone stayed at the "LG ..." power-on screen. Luckily I could still boot to TWRP (the keys are a bit tricky timing-wise) and go back to 20190628 which worked - but only when flashed together with...

which factory ROM I downloaded the latest XT1092 factory ROM image and extracted the files. This is Android 6, MM XT1092_VICTARA_RETDE_6.0_MPES24.49-18-7.zip

the usual way ;) in TWRP, format+wipe, then advanced->sideload, on PC (linux RHEL 7.6) adb sideload $filename.

I sideloaded this release, together with 9.0 stock gapps and Magisk, and apart from the known problem with SIM card not detected (even after rebooting a lot), I face another one: skipping SIM card insertion, adding WiFi password, then choosing to "copy data from cloud", and after this the setup...

can you please explain how to apply the OTA file? Can I flash with TWRP?

I tried 15.1 with respective opengapps and it failed, error described above. To make sure it works at all I returned to the latest official 14.1 with opengapps, and it works without any problems. Downloaded the latest 16.0 and your suggestion of TWRP. Works now without any "play services"...

clean install but "play services stopped" Hallo, I formatted and wiped the phone before installing los 15.1 (20190514) and opengapps. During the initial setup process the popup "play services stopped" appears multiple times, no matter if I "restart" or "abort". Usually this is a sign of not...

vendor security level? Hallo, I'm running LineageOS on my XT1650-03 (de/eu). The "about" screen tells me I have vendor security level july 2018. Is this the latest? Which of the files from the factory image would I have to flash without destroying my LOS installation? Thanks, Tschau...Thomas
