LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10.0, 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. 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.

All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review.

Code: 
#include "std_disclaimer.h"
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 */

Reporting Bugs
  • 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 dmesg . (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.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Can this ROM be flashed through TWRP?
A. Yes, proceed with the latest TWRP image

Q. Sounds good. How can I contribute to project?
A. Test the build as much as you can and report bugs which can be reproduced with exact steps and are not random.

Q. How to disable "Apps running in background" dialog?
A. When you see the dialog, long press on it and select "Settings". From there, you'll have a toggle to disable it.

Q. Which Models of the V40 are supported?
A. Tested on V405EBW and V405UA so far, but should work on all, EXCEPT US T-mobile variant.

Why doesn't this work on the T-Mobile model, and is there any hope for owners of that model in terms of custom ROMs?

Because T-Mobile wants to be different, if you try to unlock the bootloader the normal way you get a brick. If my memory is working correctly, Vlad has mentioned something about being able to unlock the bootloader but with soldering and opening the device itself.

What partitions would I check on backup in TWRP if I was going to install Lineage 16 or 17?:confused:
Click to expand...
Well first you would backup everything minus system.img and Vendor.img...on both slots just to make sure

The tmobile variants always have a different RSA key for their firmware -> the one from the other models wont work.
Kernel and so on would work fine (would just need different firmware files), but the issue is that you cant even unlock/root in the first place (to my knowledge)
