Flash magisk. You'll find the link on the first post in the development thread:

Just download magisk.zip, make a backup to be on the safe side and then flash it via TWRP.

Flash this zip and wipe cache and dalvik cache you will be able to send videos, I have personally tested it. I found this on other thread.
Nice to see an apology about this year's LOS April Fools joke, particularly regarding the fact that the joke included a persistent notification which confused people, and that LOS specifically apologized to the maintainers who were not involved in that decision but had to hear complaints about it in forums such as XDA and elsewhere.

IMHO, no such jokes have any place in development or any product testing (whether community or industry based) for the same reasons cited in the apology - the undermining of trust, and this one was worse than usual. Have a joke in a marketing or administrative department but don't prank the testers.
(P.S Please pardon my quasi spamming this note across a few threads for devices on which I test LOS)

Agreed with you 100 %. I got also confused with this message, there shouldn't be any jokes like this related to a users. Some phones got this update after Aprils Fools and In my opinion there were for sure people who considered moving to a different OS or even moved to a different one.
FWIW, once the joke was known, it could then be deduced by reading the commits that it would be removed as of April 8. That being said, something like a surprise wallpaper (which most of us change anyhow) might have been better received.
I also wish it was handled differently, as it takes two tips to switch it on. This way, the quick settings don't make a whole lot of sense in case of the mobile data toggle. Unlucky this has to be changed by the LineageOS team, not by the maintainer Alberto, as it is an official ROM.
But you could check out the Oreo AOSP ROM by Alberto. Except camcorder I personally would consider it as stable, and there you can directly turn on mobile data with a single tap on the quick setting toggle.
Thanks bro ..but oreo roms GPS bugs not fix ... I am using GPS MONTHLY 2 or 3 times .... so i am using this rom ...
Every time I update to a new build I usually wipe everything except External Sd. Is it necessary to wipe everything? Or can I keep some stuff. Please tell
What each of us defines as "everything" may vary according to each of our preferences and methods but this is what I do:
- Wipe dalvik and system caches (this step may be redundant but I do it anyhow because it forces more thorough habits overall).
- "Factory Reset".
- Flash ROM, Gapps, SU.
- Wipe dalvik and system caches.
- Reboot.
There are some cases where it is also recommended to wipe "data" while wiping caches, eg when flashing some ROM's on some devices for the first time or after there have been serious problems with a previous ROM. Disclaimer: This is just one of many potential variations of this work-flow.
For me everything includes everything from advanced wipe except External sd.
I wonder what factory reset does. Does it wipe cache and data as well?
That's more than should be needed if you are switching between similar ROMs, but it might have its own benefits, especially when testing a variety of ROMs and Mods.
Finding out what a factory reset does is an easy internet search but you could start here: https://androidforums.com/threads/factory-reset-what-is-it-and-why-would-you.646432/
Ok I don't get this. I have tested official build from LOS webpage and gps is working. If I build rom from sources gps is not working for me. I have used LOS wiki quide for building and added .repo/local_manifest.xml file which tells to download vendor files (<project path="vendor/motorola" name="Alberto97/proprietary_vendor_motorola" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" /> ).
Is there something what I have missed? What is official/right repository link for vendor files? Or is just my building machine somehow messed up?

You are in the Moto G3 section here...

I think it's the best if you post into the thread of your ROM if there exists one.

Answering to myself seems like <project path="vendor/motorola" name="Alberto97/proprietary_vendor_motorola" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" /> is not giving working gps after building.
When I tried to build with <project path="vendor/motorola" name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_motorola" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" /> TheMuppets vendor files are giving for me working gps.
Can anyone point me vendor files what are used to build with offical LOS releases?

FAQs
- Does LineageOS support VoLTE? YES
- If I install LineageOS will I lose MotoActions? We have our own implementation of MotoActions configurable under Settings -> Gestures, so the answer is No
- Your ROM is unrooted, can I install SuperSU? We discourage SuperSU usage, flash our su package (arm) and then enable root access from Settings -> Developer options.

I did not release anything that day, that is a CM13 feature that is coming back anyway5
our device (kernel, device trees ) library and driver is based on 32 bit.. so motrola need to release 64bit based driver or library for any sms8916 device, which is not possible...
so technically ya our device is support 64 bit but practically our device is limited with 32bit..
so its hard to port from 32 bit ti 64 bit...
and alberto97 tried to port 64 bit... but due to lack for sensors drives he abounded that one...

@IronTechmonkey had reported on JIRA that he felt the low memory killer (LMK) defaults are overly aggressive for 1 GB RAM devices. You can tinker with the LMK settings using something like KernelAdiutor and see if it improves your experience.
I do intend to look at tweaking the defaults when I have more time to test memory management on a 1 GB RAM device myself.4Nice to see an apology about this year's LOS April Fools joke, particularly regarding the fact that the joke included a persistent notification which confused people, and that LOS specifically apologized to the maintainers who were not involved in that decision but had to hear complaints about it in forums such as XDA and elsewhere.
