[OFFICIAL][a3xelte][SM-A310F]Lineage OS 17.1 for A3 2016

[danwood76]

Introduction

LineageOS 17.1 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. The port for the Exynos7580 based devices was created by @Stricted and I along with many contributions from other people in the Android community.

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. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

What works

Calls, SMS, Mobile Data
Camera
NFC
WiFi
Bluetooth
Torch
Sensors
GPS
SELinux Enforcing
HWC​

What doesn't work

IMS services (VoLTE, VoWiFi, etc). Samsung has their own proprietary implementation. It is not really possible to easily port that to LineageOS.
WiFi tether (hotspot) not functional (fixed in 21/01/2020 release)
HD headsets in call not working (fixed in 21/01/2020 release)
NFC HCE (GooglePay etc) fixed in 07/03/2020 release
You tell me!
​

There are still quite a few features that are not yet completed for LineageOS 17.1, these are not bugs this is a beta release.
Any hardware related issues will be ignored if you do not provide:
a) Logcat
b) proc/last_kmsg
c) data/tombstones
d) dmesg

Also do not under any circumstances post bug reports if you are using substratum themes or unsupported magisk modules or you have performed any system modifications

Installation

Install the latest TWRP (Available Here)
Make a full backup (just in case something goes wrong)
Do a full wipe (Cache, Data, System)
If this is your first time on a LineageOS ROM format data
Download the latest LOS build and transfer it to your phone
Install LOS
If you are installing GApps do it at the same time (preferably in the same install queue)
And finally boot, the first boot can take several minutes as it optimises all the apps
Do NOT install the TWRP app when prompted, this will cause a bootloop
​

Hello Dan,

Just installed this rom with Opengapps 10 BETA pico and Magisk 20.3. Got it up and running within 5 minutes, clean flash.

Haven't found any error on installation, running very nice.

Hi!
Just tested it. Everything I tested worked fine so far. Switched back to my backup of LOS 16, as I am still waiting for the official release which should arrive soon I hope. Don't want to setup my phone from scratch several times.
Thanks for all your efforts!

 

[Wiltoncandido]

Congratulations Dany just installed and everything works for me is perfect, the problem I found was only in the gapps, he does not install the error. but LOS17 is perfect. my model is a310m

How did you install?

You won't be able to update from official builds (without a resigning script and some luck)

 

[danwood76]

Congratulations Dany just installed and everything works for me is perfect, the problem I found was only in the gapps, he does not install the error. but LOS17 is perfect. my model is a310m

I tested the latest Pico and nano opengapps beta from the link in the OP and both work fine.

 

[Wiltoncandido]

The mistake was mine, I was installing the gapps along with LOS17 I did the separate installation and everything worked out. thanks

 

[danwood76]

Ok, The order is important.

1st ROM

2nd Gapps

3rd Magisk

Good that it is now working!

 

[Johnpson]

I was in your official LOS16. So I can't update to unofficial LOS17?
Or did I misunderstood something?

Thank you for yozr work that you did so far!!!!!

When lineageos 17.1 is finally released you can go official 16.0 to official 17.1 but this is an unofficial release.

In the install instructions I said to make a backup, erase, and install. That is what you need to do to run this build.

Thanks @alexax66 I will look into it tomorrow, I obviously can't do anything about Russian translation but I would urge you to submit correct translations via gerrit.

Hi,

I tried to install the ROM with OpenGapps Pico (version January 16th, 2020) but after a couple of minutes into the initial booting process it returned to the recovery. The problem seems to be Gapps-related since the system booted just fine without Gapps installed. I wiped cache, data and system prior to the installation and am on the latest TWRP 3.3.0. I first installed the ROM and then OpenGapps in the same install queue (no Magisk). My models is a A310F.

Am I missing something essential?

Best regards,
thebinf

Odd, that is the same version OpenGapps I tested with and it worked fine. Try re-downloading it, maybe the download is corrupted?
