Same as it was before, follow the wiki, those images are mainly for debugging issues if you have them, and maintainers may ask you to use them to debug things, but really just the exact same process you're used to following
Hi sir On new builds data connectivity toggle on qs is slow also Bluetooth connection is slow and too hard to find devices please do something

no changes have been made that will cause any such issue. I suspect this is related to gapps or some add-on.

i was on feb 9 release and got an update for march 22, just installed that and after the reboot the swipe up gesture wont let me go to home screen w/o launcher crashing. i can swipe out of apps back to home screen though.

i new update for today, march 23, but i get errors on downloading it or trying to go back to my feb 9 download via the install button.

edit: looks like if i copy the url from the updater of march 23rd and go to it, it says "not found":
"https://github.com/ods-releases/tai...n/lineage-20.0-20230323-UNOFFICIAL-taimen.zip"

In addition, I just did the 3/23 update on my 2XL and it set a speed record. Previously, it was taking about an hour and a half to install these weekly updates, but today it only took about twenty five minutes and everything appears to be working great including Magisk rooting. GREAT JOB, THANK YOU!😁😁😁

The system camera is normal, but some APPs call the camera when scanning ID Cards, the whole image will be squashed.

See the "Installing Add-ons" section of the wikl. https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/taimen/install

If you install updates using the built-in system updater, you do not need to reinstall gapps.

Is this on SMS, RCS, or both?
Oh, one more interesting thing: looking in the Messages by Google app (testing only!), settings options, Chat features, it states: "chat features unavailable for this device. Your device does not currently support this feature."
Strange!

(I am using LineageOS official)

Random suggestion: If you go into Messages app > Settings > Advanced, is the phone number set right? I remember that at some point on some phone I ended up with that field either empty or with nonsense and the SMS app was pretty confused.

    Is it compatible with Android Auto? Thanks.

    I'm really enjoying the upgrade from 11 and have been using for a few weeks. The only feature that I do miss is the inbuilt method to pause an app. It used to be a long-press on the app icon in 11 and tap of the timer icon to grey the app out and silence notifications. In stock 13 it's accessed by a push up on the open app, tap the icon at the top, and it should appear below the app info, split top options, but does not. I have Gapps & wellbeing installed and see that I can switch off notifications per app in digital wellbeing, so it's not vital. But it is a useful feature.
    Anyway - thanks again for all your good work. Stability is good. Extending storage by reducing the ROM footprint is great, as I have all my music collection stored locally.

    Did anyone bother to try out every recent build and see which is the latest one that works without a bootloop?
    It seems that at least
    20230106
    20230109

    are not working.

    @npjohnson I understand that devs are extremely busy people, but how available are you for this project? If you do not have much spare time, could you at least make a working ROM (that is, without bootloops) before you take a break from this project? Much appreciated!
    work trip, I'll look into it when I get back. No clue what's going on.

    Hey Dev!
    Thank you for your continued support of Taimen as this phone still is a workhorse even in late 2022! I can not log into my snapchat as of the latest build, today is 11/17/22 , it says due to repeated attempts or unusual activity your access to snapchat is currently disabled. I reverted to the stock 11 rom and it worked fine! Yes I tried their troubleshooting and support to no avail. How fluently you have 13 working on here Google should still supported Taimen!!!!! Thank you I look forward to and anticipate future builds!!! I flashed back to your rom after testing logging in on 11. Also the SELinux not enforcing thing I am concerned about as well.
    SELinux is permissive due to a single bug I need to solve.

    And snapchat is safety net related. Enforcing might fix it alone.

    As of the April builds the unofficial should pass safety net.
