Thanks bro! Feedback is always welcome!
Based on the build dates of my other official devices, builds should be rolling any day now. They merged the hudson change, so should see a build in the next cycle! Wiki changes still not merged but I'd imagine they will be any time.
I had a problem with my phone so decided to try the ROM from 11/3 and I can say that it's very stable, I am on it for 3 days now no problems at all.
The Wiki should be live soon. I'll make a new thread this evening for the official builds too [emoji6]
Doing the happy dance. FYI, cannot dirty flash the official build on top of 11/03 unofficial as it boot loops. Not a problem. Just factory reset/formatted data, flashed 11/18 build and GAPPS nano and the 11/18 official has now booted up. This is amazing!!!
Lol. And yes, that's true. My unofficial builds are signed with my personal "dev-keys" whereas Official builds are signed with LineageOS keys. There is some info on the Lineage Wiki regarding data migration and switching from builds signed with test-keys to builds signed with release-keys, but unless you { <insert valid reasoning here> } then it is probably more trouble than it's worth. Once you're on the official builds, you won't need to clean flash again (unless instructed otherwise), even when updating from 17.1 -> 18.0 if/when that time comes [emoji6]
The play store shows the device as uncertified (presumably due to unlocked bootloader as it was like this also on the stock ROM). Any way to fix that for example by installing Magisk?
Yes, unfortunately google seems to check for that these days. You can definitely try Magisk, it is supposed to trick those checks into thinking they're valid. If that isn't enough, try using the MagiskPropsConfig module (name may be inaccurate) and play around with the build fingerprint. Preferably a beckham one that I can switch our builds to if you get it working.
out of curiosity, why another beckham. the G7 Plus has the same SOC and GPU as the Z3 Play. Not sure that makes a difference. Also, thank you for this ROM. it was the deciding factor in me getting this phone a week ago.
The Lineage Wiki should be live soon. Most of the info to install Lineage is there. I'll open a new thread for LineageOS once I'm outta work
I mean you can use any build fingerprint you want, if that works for you. However, I can add a build fingerprint from another device in Lineage, so I'd prefer to find one from stock that works for everyone.
I just learned that Motorola is releasing their source code. I see z4 has already been released and didn't know if some of the moto mod code might help us here in some way to keep our mods running? Maybe in time they will release z3 as well.

This is actually something Moto has been doing for quite some time! They don't release ALL of the sources they use to build the firmware we use on stock, but they do release the kernel source for pretty much every device they put android in. We've had kernel source for beckham since oreo, and we have more recent pie releases as well. Sadly the post you linked from XDA relates to the devices which have officially been updated to Android 10. Fortunately, the Moto G7 Plus (Lake) shares a common kernel with the Moto Z3 Play and Moto has released the android 10 kernel sources for lake already, which is what is used in Lineage 17.1 alreadyI just learned that Motorola is releasing their source code.

Motorola releases Android 10 kernel code for the Moto G7
Although Motorola has been slow to roll out Android 10 to most of its devices globally, the company is at least keeping developers happy with steady
.Does that help us with moto mod support? That's the only thing stopping me from updating my daily driver.This is actually something Moto has been doing for quite some time!
