first you learn the forum rules..This is the comment made for the information of those who want to install this build..Didn't you read that I wrote that this structure is TEST and that Ivan will fix them already?Read the comment thoroughly before replying to the comment.

For me it sounded also like "zerbrechliches" took it. That you wanted to report those as bugs or so. But I guess you just meant it as a heads up to fill the list of things that are not yet implemented. Might also be the you felt offended by him, your answere sounded like that. I guess we all hate when people want to say things we did wrong in their opinion. Also might be that you did it wrong and don't want to admit.

i don't want to start a fight, but most of the things you count as a bug are already reported in then post from Ivan (these are not ported Lineage features). some bugs are real bugs but they're already fixed in the newest update. I think we both are right. But maybe read the whole post cause some things that are not working were marked as not working from Ivan.

It Happened Again !!

stuck on Phone is Starting...
nothing further to do afterwards .. any help could be useful for me thank you

 

[florin_stann]

I've just dirty flashed this rom over the previous version and wiped cache and dalvik. Practically upgraded from Android 12 to 13.

All went smoothly, phone booted normally, all apps kept as installed previously and no probs to report.

stuck on Phone is Starting...

Same here, first boot was successful, then this happened after first restart although maybe it has something to do with flashing magisk via TWRP.

[Nikhil]

For anyone looking for gapps for android 13, NikGapps-T is also available now.

 

[exnokiafan]

@Ivan_Meler awesome, mate! Is Android 13 affected by the in-call echo issue like the previous versions?

What a Fantastic Approach by Ivan Meler

Wipe your phone and get maximum NikGapps omni. Every package with pixellauncher is bricking your phone.

Keep in mind that some LineageOS features have not been completed yet this is not a device bug and please do not report those
Example of such features would be button backlight control, battery percentage in status bar, button remaping, toggle for software buttons and such
use common sense and please do not report non device specific bugs
in this rom thread, also do not post bug reports for known issues or bug reports without proper
a) Logcat
b) proc/last_kmsg (or proc/kmsg)
c) data/tombstones
d) dmesg


Install gapps right after installing the rom itself don't try to boot to system before that if you want to use gapps (Or wipe data before installing them)

NikGapps Omni and smaller from this date should work, yes those packages are intended for 12.1 but they meet all 13 requirements and boot on 13 without issues

Make sure you are using latest official TWRP before installing rom older versions do not have proper android 12/13 support
