Builds are mostly ready for daily use, i had no major issues while testing but some lineageos extras are not implemented yet as its still eaarly days in android 13 development

Huge thanks to everyone who supported this project, helped cover the build server cost and got me coffee/pizza for time spent on development, This project wouldnt be possible without them

Also this builds come with full BPF backport to kernel which enables fancy new android 13 features like gpu monitoring
there were hundreds of kernel commits required to get this working on 4.4 kernel and it took quite a bit of time but new kernel will be used on future 19.1 builds too

You can find some screenshots here

 

[FakrudeenAhamed]

WoW!!! You are super fast man. I like to thank you for keeping this 5 year old devic still alive with latest updates.

 

[alfredotto]

Thank you, this is great.

 

[hernanquiroz1999]

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

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

New builds are up here is a brief changelog
- Fixed bluetooth audio
- Upreved audio hal to 7.1 from 5.0
- Implemented custom audio service used to load audio hal
- Backported more BPF changes to kernel
- Switched to webview 105.0.5195.68 which is native to T
- Cleaned up the source and patches used to build the rom
- Synced with LineageOS source

Do note you might need to clean flash if you used 12.1 gapps that replace default webview and use 13 gapps instead

Im aware of curent camera issues affecting Note 8 and im working on a fix right now, it will be out ASAP
tho it might take some time since i dont have note 8 or properly working s8/s8+ for that matter so it takes a bit of time to debug everything

Huge thanks to everyone who donated and helped cover the build server cost and got me coffee

Enjoy new builds and stay safe
