[OFFICIAL] LineageOS 20 for the Note 9 Exynos

[king1990]

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 12, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

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.

Instructions:

• Follow the instructions Note9

Downloads:

• Builds: Note9
• GApps: MindTheGapps - (Choose MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm64 version)

Reporting Bugs

• DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
• DO NOT Report bugs if you're using TWRP
• Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
• If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
• If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log

Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

Excellent port, fast and stable,
Every thing works as expected, the only thing I notice The device cannot connect to WPA3 networks, it can see it in apps like WiFiAnalyzer but not in the phone settings it can connect to wpa2/wpa3 networks fine, but it shows WPA/WPA2.
Overall stable ROM.
Thanks to all Contributors and the device Maintainer.

hello guys,
does the s-pen works correctly?
if so, the only feature I would miss is selecting a part of the screen with the pen to take screenshots, do you think a similar resuly would be possible with a thitd-party app or module?
thabk you!

What are the known bugs and what doesn't work ?

How about Google Wallet? Is it working on Note 9 with this ROM?

Yes, it is working, but you need to use Magisk/Lygisk with a few modules to fix Safetynet. The ROM does not pass by default. I use the Universal Safetynet Fix and Shamiko modules to hide root and pass CTS.

I have a problem with LiveDisplay. I set night color temperature to 3700K and when it activates, bright blue and green colors are way too oversaturated. I can provide a logcat if needed.

Spoiler

For the picture I turned the color temp all the way down to 1000K to demonstrate the issue.

Code:
What is your--
LineageOS version: 20-20230603-microG-crownlte
LineageOS Download url: https://download.lineage.microg.org/crownlte/
Gapps version: microG 0.2.27.223626

Did you--
wipe: yes, full factory reset
restore with titanium backup: no
reboot after having the issue: yes, the issue still persists

Are you using--
a task killer: no
a non-stock kernel: no
other modifications: rooted with magisk

Provide any additional information (observations/frequency of problem/last version it worked on/etc) as needed:
- This seems to be a larger problem with multiple samsung devices:
https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/-/issues/3813
- I know it is not the normal build but lineageos for microG follows the official builds pretty closely and the issue
does not seem to be connected to microG.

Otherwise a great port, thank you

Anyone, please post photos and videos of Lineage OS on Note 9 showing features. Please also show camera performance and features.

Hello! The ROM is already very good.

What worries me is:

Bluetooth does not work properly!
All Xiaomi wristbands can not be paired. One Drive does not work either! Also a device from my HUK car insurance does not work. Every device is shown up, but don't connect!

Can you please change the Bluetooth driver?

As I said, otherwise it is already very well done.

What do you expect? It is lineageos so you are getting basically the features of stock android 13.
Here is a video going over new features of android 13.
Also I attached some photos I made with Open Camera (not the stock camera app), the quality is hit or miss though.

Bluetooth works well for me, all devices connect without problem.
Does it affect only specific devices or every bluetooth device?

It effects all Xiaomi Wristband "SmartWatch"

And

From a Car insurance a little device that's connected over Bluetooth.

And

One Drive it's a illegally tempo limit warning device.

That's my only issue with the Rom

Thanks to the devs...
The bluetooth issues are gone.

For me it is a nice ROM! Almost perfect!

Grazie infinite

Thank you for posting camera samples.

Just installed it. Fast & Smooth.
Using it with GAPS.
No bugs, errors, crashes whatsoever. All apps work as expected.

Great job devs!

could you please try to see if you can take better pictures compared to the stock lineage os cam by installing a modded gcam for the note 9?
for example this mod that works on my stock note 9 https://drive.google.com/file/d/19B3s6sKzpa4mmZqCovVqO8ETP4SJePaJ/view
thank you!

I have stock rom.
Will installation of lineageos root the device?
Will I be able to use banking apps in lineageos?
