The Sony Open Devices Project is always happy about volunteers (coding, testing, etc) 
Also mainlining your favorite snapdragon powered xperia device into the mainline kernel is possible and we will be glad to help you!
This is the LineageOS ROM for the Sony Xperia XZ2 (akari), XZ2C (apollo) and XZ3 (akatsuki)
This ROM build will always mainly based on Code from Sony AOSP & LineageOS and maybe include cherry-picks.
I plan to make monthly builds, after a new security patch level, if there is no need for a critical hotfix.

FAQ:
- Switch the A/B slot for every monthly release to make sure you execute the same amount of write cycles on the entire flash storage. (Extends hardware lifetime)
- fastboot & adb
- Stuck at SONY logo? Maybe you need to flash the OEM binary to oem_a and oem_b, while just oem is not enough.
- For a complete security patch you have to install the newest stock firmware and boot it once.
https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/bug_tracker/issues/258#issuecomment-445816826
TL;DR Flash the latest stockfirmware, boot it once, to update your baseband/mobile network drivers and then flash this ROM.
(I prefer and support only newflasher from XDA and xperifirm to download the firmware.)
Maybe this helps windows users:

- LineageOS Bugtracker -> If you think the problem is in LineageOS
- My Bugtracker -> If you think the problem is in my implementation
Bugreport:
- A bugreport needs
and a way to reproduce the issue.Code:
logcat -b all - A crash of the system requires the content of the /sys/fs/pstore folder as bug report
- Be aware that a second reboot erases this folder
- A crash to the recovery partition requires additionally the content of the /dev/block/by-name/misc partition
- You get the content via `cat /dev/block/by-name/misc partition > /path/to/output/file.txt`
- To rescue a not responding phone:
- VOLUP+POWER for 3 Seconds -> RESTART with one Vibration.
- VOLUP+POWER for 20 Seconds -> SHUTDOWN with 3 Vibrations.
- VOLUP+POWER+CAMERA for 30 Seconds -> HARDWARE SHUTDOWN by discharging a capacitor.
Thank you very much for your help, code contribution & testing! (Random order):
- @jerpelea, the sony employees and their volunteers (people like you and me) coding this wonderful piece of software
- @dhacke for providing a download server
- @Raphos for the initial installation manual without a recovery system, after I switched to OTA zips.
- @kgvarunkanth for the jenkins build server
- And many thanks to the few donators!
