You're using a century old TWRP. Use a newer version
Yes, lineage is smooth and better. Bonus: You'll get LED notification enabled
Hello all. First, a little good news: I’m in the process of doing a big kernel security update. The next weekly build will have the patches included, but nothing will show on cmxlog because there are too many patches and I’ll bypass gerrit. I can’t promise I’ve patched everything, but it’s much better than before (I hadn’t updated it since December last year). Maintaining a 3.4 kernel that’s very far from mainling is not easy.
Now, I’m wondering if there’s enough interest for me to bother with LineageOS 15.1 on this device. This thread has practically died, and the other unofficial LOS 15.1 thread has very few people. I’m also concerned about performance on otus and particularly on condor. I’m worried multi-process HALs will push RAM usage over the edge and make these devices too slow. My time is limited, and I have to prioritize my projects.
If you feel Oreo works better than Nougat on these devices, and feel strongly about wanting condor/otus moves to LOS 15.1, please reply to this thread stating your experience. If not, I’m tempted to leave the msm8610 on LOS 14.1 since it’s smooth and stable. It would also save my time to work on other devices. In any case, I’ll continue to provide occasional security updates.
Who's complaining here lol?What are you complaining? You've got a new build with December security patch today!

That's by far more than other devices in this category have.
Unfortunately, I don't have enough time to deal with the MSM8610 family (otus and condor). I've been doing a poor job of maintaining this device lately (with my last kernel security update in August last year). It's also getting difficult to maintain the old kernel for security, given how far behind it is compared to mainline. Furthermore, the msm8610 devices are old, slow, and declining in userbase.
I need to focus my efforts on bringing the MSM8916 devices up to speed on kernel security (working on it), and then bring LineageOS 16 (want to work on it). The MSM8610 devices have a much smaller userbase, and I don't have time to deal with an old declining device family.
Thank you all for your testing and bug reporting efforts. I've appreciated the support of the community. You are welcome to continue building, sharing, and discussing unofficial builds in this thread.

Old builds removed from the official website. Anyone having the mirror link for the last build?

I just found that I've got the lineage-14.1-20181110-nightly-otus-signed version. If you want it just PM.
This may be a bigger change than just that, such as devices being dependent on individual developers, unable to rely on jenkins and other stuff so after Dec 31 no more cohesive runs of nighltys for all devices. We'll have to stay tuned.
