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. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. 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.

Instructions:
  • Download the latest build, official TWRP (3.3.0 and newer) and GApps (if you need them)
  • Flash the downloaded TWRP via fastboot
  • Boot to recovery
  • Flash the latest build
  • Flash GApps and any other necessary add-ons

What's working:
  • Bluetooth
  • WiFi
  • Camera and Camcorder
  • Bluetooth
  • NFC
  • Fingerprint - Oreo firmware required
  • GPS
  • OTG
  • Video Playback
  • Audio
  • RIL
  • VoLTE
  • SELinux: Enforcing
  • USB tethering/audio
  • Front flash

Known issues:
  • You tell me

Downloads:
  • Unofficial builds: GitHub
  • Recovery: Official TWRP
  • Google Apps: OpenGApps (nano package is advisable, but you definitely should avoid using stock/super packages)

Reporting Bugs
  • All bugs should be reported here: Issue Tracker
  • DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
  • Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
  • If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
  • If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

Sorry for the ignorance, but... what's the difference between this LOS 15.1 ROM and @GoldeneyeS2 's build? Also, do you have any plans on porting LOS 16?

There are many many Plans, just wait man, you will have also LOS 16 for PIE, and these are not porting, they are developing by sources... Developers need to use a huge time to build one ROM and than fix things...

There are basically no differences, other than the fact that I removed Moto Camera and that it includes the February security patch. The only reason I'm continuing his ROM is so that people can benefit from Oreo's stability while still receiving monthly security updates.

And yes, I will be soon, unless AsdMonio decides to continue it.

Edit: + USB Audio works too!

Installed the rom and works fine so far, but missing the navigation bar. Is it intentionally disabled by default? I tried to look around the settings but can't find a way to enable it. When I try searching in settings it gives me results for the setting but when I click any of them it brings me to the menu where it's supposed to be, but it's not there.

Go to buttons and toggle Navigation Bar
 
Best rom for moto g5s in my opinion, everything works as expected, very fast and smooth, great battery life, from ~2,5h screen on time on stock to almost 5h, very big improvement, fingerprint works after firmware downgrade, ambient display works both on pick up and wave mode, only I'm having a problem with moto camera, it won't record video, keeps saying that another app uses the microphone but both footej camera and gcam record video just fine. Great rom, thanks!

EDIT: I rebooted my phone and moto camera has been working fine since then. Flawless rom, hands down the best.

Whenever I try to take a picture with Open Camera from Telegram, it freezes for about 15 seconds. Only the top 10% of the picture is visible in the preview, the rest is black. The image is saved properly though. Any idea why this happens?
