LineageOS 16.0 - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite [ENFORCING]

33bca · Apr 7, 2019

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 9 (Pie), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Base source code is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to the project, please visit our Gerrit Code Review.

Will this ever support custom kernel?

I need color calibration to remove yellowish tint of my phone. And to some who will say im on reading mode or etc. NO, my default lcd is EBBG, its warm tone by default.

1. Open the kernel ZIP file
2. Copy module/system/vendor/lib/modules/wlan.ko to module/system/lib/modules
3. Flash the kernel.

But you don't need a custom kernel to change the hue, there's an option for that in LOS settings.

Gcam does not work. LOS can only be installed on the vendor pie.

during flashing it appears: updater process ended with error 1. I think it's something at boot level if I'm not mistaken. I tried flashing the boot stock and then the rom, but it still gives me error 1. How do I solve it?

alejandrorobles12 · Apr 7, 2019

Could you explain how to correctly install the rom together with the gapps? he made me hard brick which I had to solve with test points after doing a clean installation together with the gapps "open_gapps-arm64-9.0-pico-20190406"

You have to wipe system, data and cache

Already did that, i'm having trouble decrypting after i've installed LOS (it was said that the rom supports HW encryption and the new TWRP was supposed to fix this problem).
