New lineage 13.0 build 20171024 is online.
- latest Android 6.0.1 R81 sources
- Android security patch 01.10.2017
- wifi wpa2 security problems fixed (wpa_supplicant & kernel)
Reports welcome, if there are any wifi problems after these fixes. I could not test this build so far.
This build was created with 100% photovoltaic energy.
Thank you very much for the effort, especially for keeping it alive and integrating the latest security patches! :good: :victory:
Initially, I installed 20170611 a couple of months ago and it was running fine, but got slower from time to time, me suspecting too many background processes (gapps?). Recently, it crashed/rebooted during updates by the playstore and got stuck in a bootloop: right after 'preparing apps' during startup, it reboots.
In an attempt to fix this, I installed the latest 20171024 which works fine ... up to some point when installing an app from the appstore crashes -> bootloop. It can't recover from the bootloop by wiping dalvik/cache. Installing the LOS rom, gapps and addonsu afterwards does not help either
It seems to enter the bootloop if an app installation was interrupted. Is there an easier fix (one could try from TWRP, for example) instead of wiping the partitions and installing all over again?
Btw, side note: Installing the suggested TWRP after the LOS rom renders it unbootable (TWRP tells me there is no OS installed). Is this expected behaviour? The LOS rom comes with the CyanogenMod recovery which must not be touched for booting the system.
If other i9100g devices do not show this behaviour, it might be an hardware problem?
Thanks for any hints&ideas!
{edit}
After some installations, I found the culprit that causes the bootloop during installation. Especially, it is reproducible with
this apk of Telegram 4.4.2 (11273)(arm)(Android 6.0+). It happens when installing it from the appstore but also via apk (from apkmirror) right after installation of plain 20171024 (no network, offline), without gapps and su (wiped system&data before install). Does someone get this as well?
