I've been using this as my daily driver for almost a week. Everything works fine. Thank you dev

 

[marmotz]

Okay guys, initial release. This should work just fine, but keep in mind that many LineageOS specific features are not available yet!

What features are missing?
I'm using version 19.1, what will I lose by upgrading to 20?

 

[maltumbo]

Wow this realy works fine! Amazing work und doesnt feel experimental at all.

My list of problems:
system color scheme (material you) is not customizable
Paypal not working
Gpay not working
Backup for system settings on gdrive not working



Thank you!

 

[johnykes]

Works fine, thank you! Anyone able to successfully install a stable gapps version?

no, upgrading from 19 should be fine. do be careful with gapps though, as usual.

Thank you!

as mentioned, some features are still missing. paypal/gpay likely a gapps issue not related to android itself - i've had the same trouble and been in contact with paypal, but they're sort of slow.

new build with quite a lot of improvements is up, try it out

 

[maltumbo]

New build works fine. Thanks for the colors!
Auto hide centered clock in status bar works as intended now. Pretty cool.

Thanks again

 

[daywalk3r666]

Thx for the update

 

[shariful.sourav]

New build is just phenomenal. Thanks.

 

[marmotz]

New build is just phenomenal. Thanks.

That much ?

 

[daywalk3r666]

With your build i get twrp error. Twrp can't mount data.

 

[qsnc]

of course it can't - its android 13, twrp does not support decryption for that.
anyhow, just sideload the zip files in recovery, twrp is not really a supported scenario anyway i am afraid

 

[denisovich]

I'd like to suggest a moratorium on all Android 12/13 development. Seems to me Android 11 is just fine, and Android 12 sucks badly. Android 13 is just more of the same nonsense.

I'm not against progress, but I am against pointless "version inflation".

YES to fixes and improvements. A big NO to endless mindless dead-end "enhancements".

Just as financial inflation makes a suitcase of banknotes worthless, version inflation leaves you worse off than you were before.

 

[maltumbo]

But the thing with banking apps and PayPal freaks me out! Any suggestions or hope for future updates on this matter?
Greetings and eyes up guardian!

 

[qsnc]

new build is up, again with plenty of changes, LineageOS team is hard at work!

regarding banking/paypal: there are ways around this, but i can't support this officially here as it has nothing to do with lineage itself. try looking into magisk and it's zygisk functionality, i am sure google can help you (or other threads on xda), but please not in this one

 

[jolebaltringue]

I built LineageOS from source some time ago but I gave it up because it was full of analytics baked deep within the ROM.
Is it still the case or are LineageOS ROMs free of analytics nowadays?

 

[qsnc]

what in the world are you talking about...?

About a dirty flash

Initial setup: latest official LOS 19.1 recovery/build + MindTheGApp + ih8sn ... (No root so no magisk)
About ih8sn (bypassing Safetynet attestation without Magisk): see this post

Prerequisites:
1- Download latest unofficial LOS 20 build (see OP)
2- Download Latest MindTheGapp (13 arm64)
3- Optional: download ih8sn for OP5T (here) ... if you don’t want to rely on Magisk to pass SafetyNet attestation!

Procedure:
1- Boot to LOS recovery
2- Optional (but recommended): Factory reset > Format cache and system partitions
3- Apply Update from ADB or USB OTG in sequence ... LOS build, MindTheGapp and ih8sn (optional)
4- Reboot system now
5- Enjoy

See attached files

Note: works with a locked or unlocked bootloader ...

Many thanks to @qsnc and @T1mb3 !
