I've tried to encrypt my phone several times, but it gets stuck during the encryption process, so I've had to reinstall the ROM (7.22, clean install) several times, but the result is the same. The first time it got stuck with "time remaining 1:10" (started from 4:50, went down in about the time...

That's called a kernel panic. Is your phone rooted? Mine does it weekly, too. Haven't figured out why it does it (I had no issues on 17.1 and it is not related to any particular app as far as I can tell), but phones that are not rooted don't seem to be affected as it does not seem to be a...

There's always hope, but this topic is for LOS 18.1 based on Android 11

3G networks are getting shut down all around the world. Your issue might be related to that

There probably won't be a stable release. LOS 17.1 never had any. The weekly builds are stable and reliable enough for daily use

Which ROM was installed before LOS? Was it a clean install of LOS? Is the display of your phone the original one or was it replaced by the official OP repair shop?

No. Only weekly kernel panics for me

Try Total Commander. Select the file, "Edit file", add the lines, tap the save icon, allow everything it prompts for and that's it. Or copy it to a folder that doesn't require root access to modify its contents (like the Download folder, for example), modify and save it there, then copy/move it...

Just like Hemuli said. Although I have a few things to add: I use Total Commander (it's as lightweight as a root file explorer can be and does everything I need without any unnecessary extra features; you can also download it from apkmirror and install it manually, although that way it won't...

Same here, weekly kernel panic on my 3T. I have the latest OOS firmware. I use LOS recovery. Bootloader unlocked because of Magisk (locking it used to cause bootloop). Device is encrypted. Filesystems: i have no clue. Whatever LOS recovery formats the partitions it uses to, plus whatever the...

Depends on the recovery. I use a bit older LOS recovery, last time I tried it only accepted .zip. If you change the extension, it will work with any recovery.

You can change the extension of the Magisk apk to .zip and install it from the recovery just like in the good old days

It's an alright ROM, although it uses significantly more battery than the last LOS

Has the latest security update been merged in the latest LOS 18.1 zip? Or will it be in the next one? I can't find it in the changelog.

Search for it in this thread, a solution has been mentioned several times.

On LOS 17.1 I locked the bootloader with LOS recovery installed. Shouldn't cause any problems to do so if your phone is not rooted.

Where did I write that I had any issues on 17.1? I wrote the exact opposite: it worked flawlessly even with the bootloader locked, which on 18.1 I have not been able to do so far. That's what I'm curious about if it got fixed with Magisk 23, just like the SafetyNet issue, which again, as I...

GPS is working fine. Not the best, but not the worst, either. Magisk is working as intended, only thing is that so far it seems like you have to leave the bootloader open, which shouldn't be an issue if you encrypt your phone.

Dude, you should read whole replies before deciding to be a smartass. I'm not trying to be rude, but things have changed. As I wrote, now my phone passes SafetyNet without any extra Magisk modules, which is definitely new on LOS 18.1. So other things might have got fixed as well since it used to...

Locking the bootloader on a OP3(T) with LOS 18.1 rooted with Magisk has always resulted in a bootlooping phone so far. That being said, my phone has always needed MagiskHide Props Config module to pass SafetyNet UNTIL Magisk 23 came out. Now it works flawlessly, no need for extra modules. So it...

- you will be able to update LOS itself, however, as far as I know, updating the recovery requires the bootloader to be open - yes, locking the bootloader also erases the data partition Also, it's very important to remove Magisk completely before locking the bootloader, otherwise your device...

I think that app detects the word "magisk" in the list of installed apps or something like that. There's an option in the settings of Magisk Manager for hiding the app by renaming it. Give it a go

Screenshot Tile [No root]on Play Store. " Floating button/Overlay button like a chat bubble" and "Delay taking a screenshot" might work His volume or power button is broken if I remember correctly, so that's not an option

LOS 18.1 inherited the issue of 17.1 where if you restart the phone with wired earphones plugged in, the phone speaker won't work after you disconnect the earphones. Another restart with the earphones disconnected solves the issue, so it's not a dealbreaker. Just keep in mind that this happens...

Could anyone with the latest OOS on their phone get the original gps.conf file to compare it to the one in LOS?

I've just tried it with 2 different cars. The first one, an aftermarket head unit (JVC KD-R784BT) did not replicate the issue. Even after declining an incoming call several times, it always ringed normally (although with about half a second off from the phone, resulting in an interesting canon...

- locking the bootloader is done via fastboot (just like unlocking), otherwise the process you wrote down seems to be the correct way (I used MindTheGApps) - Bluetooth audio streaming is working with all my devices (still doesn't mean that it will work with everything, but whatever worked in OOS...

With a little gps.conf file tweaking, the GPS on my OP3T is at least as good as it is with OOS (sub-half a minute GPS position fix indoors.) I've written down what I did in a comment above somewhere, read back or search for it.

Did you hide Magisk from all of the app's services? (In MagiskHide there's a line above the app's name. If it's not "full", tap on the name of the app and switch on for all of its services.) Did you hide the Magisk app itself? (Home tab/cog in upper right corner(settings)/Hide the Magisk app (or...

Oh. I had the same with Revolut. I just Googled it in Chrome and installed it from the Play Store link that showed up there without a problem.

If your phone is rooted and you're in either Asia, Europe, or North America, search for the gps.conf file on your phone, open it for editing, and in the NTP Server section of the file uncomment (aka delete the "#" from the beginning of) the line that's corresponding with your location. Don't...

Or, you know, you could go ahead and try it yourself, too. It would require just as much effort from you to do so, but you might even have the time and energy, too...

Yes, and that's why your solution won't be any better if someone's using VPN. Because it will give you data from a closer server network-wise, but not an actual, geographically closer one that would help latency and accuracy. You can look down on me as much as you want, but that shouldn't stop...

Uncommenting/adding a line in a config file is not exactly rocket science (neither is rooting, for that matter) Thing is, I don't really care. I got a 4 second GPS fix today under a clear sky. I don't think it could be better for me at this point, and it proves that what I did does work for me...

Give back to the community??! The f*ck did I just do by posting a solution specific to this ROM and this device here if not that?! And why should I push a device- and ROM-specific solution to a collection of generic ones? I might have misunderstood your comments, but that doesn't make any sense...

I have not. I might try it if the performance of this solution starts degrading for some reason. I'm happy with what I have now, haven't been able to get a GPS fix indoors for a while... I don't know if the solution you wrote about needs to know my location to work better than the original, but...

For those who are still experiencing GPS issues: Open the gps.conf file (/system/vendor/etc) and in the NTP server part uncomment the server that's for your location (Asia, Europe, North America) (delete the "#" sign at the start of the appropriate line before the "NTP_SERVER=" part). You could...

I prefer having power button istantly locks on. If the timeout locks the screen, I just unlock it again with the fingerprint reader. It's quick and really not that bothersome. I use an older version of the LOS recovery and have to sideload Magisk after every update. But I only update once a...

Same here. It's been like that since the beginning. It's not that big of a deal, I got used to it. Still would be nice if it could be fixed, though

I use LOS 17.1 on my OP3T with the bootloader locked (only lock it after a fresh install, because it wipes the phone's data partition) without any problems. Still, there were a few apps that thought it was rooted. The only solution is to root the device with Magisk and then hide the root from...

What's up with the builds? Why is there no new build once again?

Why is the security string not updated to the latest version? Or was it already included just not posted on the recent changes page on the LOS download site?

"development: Add setting for updating recovery" Does this mean we will be able to update the Lineage recovery from within itself? Even with a locked bootloader?

Again, as most of the time, I did my research before posting. Some people wrote locking the bootloader on a custom ROM could cause bootlooping or even bricking. Some wrote it's safe. Most of them wrote about TWRP, not surprisingly, since the LOS recovery has been publicly available only for a...

I did read all of these before posting. Most of them are about TWRP thus they're irrelevant for me. "Since los recobery doesn't support encryption, it can't solve the ota issue on encrypted data partitions." This is part of why I wrote the contradictory information part of my post, since I did...

Is it safe to relock the bootloader with the LOS recovery and LOS 17.1 installed? What if I have already installed my apps as well? Will it make a full "factory" reset or just wipe /data? Will OTA updates still work? (There is one app I would like to have which won't start because it says my...

Does Arnova's gcam 7.3 require a config file for OP3T? If yes, could anyone please tell me where I can download it?

Yes. Bite the bullet and do a fresh install of LOS 16. (I'd also recommend using OrangeFox Recovery, the updates go through without a hitch, while on TWRP they used to break Google Services on my phone.) For me, it's been working flawlessly ever since it was released, and it is much better than...

No, I followed the installation instructions from the LOS wiki page. Only the data, the cache and the system partitions need to be formatted (I did dalvik as well)

Works fine on my device. Try to perform a clean install
