Hi npjohnson, thanks for your great efforts to make Razer phone still relevant after all these years. Really appreciate it. But the link still has no files listed. Will wait for your further update. Thanks again for your continuous work.

Yes, same trouble here. The link shows, but it says the file is 0.00MB and when I click onto it it downloads an empty ZIP achieve. I guess, maybe we should just wait and try again tomorrow. Many thanks to all the developers still working on this device.

I have installed 20.0, aside from these two issues:
1. Front camera not working
2. Flash light not working (QS button is blurred out with the message "Camera in use")
the LOS is working fine.
I like the smoothness of the LOS and the fact that it makes my Razer phone see the light of day at this time, is a Godsend!!
Thanks to the developers.

Working on camera nonsense for what it's worth - not sure what is broken tbh.

The last version the camera worked was 18.1, im not trying to be rude or stupid, just dont know anything about developing a rom, but wont it be easier to compare the camera code of 18.1 and 20 to find the major differences.

    Front camera is fixed - we are letting one more 19.1 build roll with fixed front cam, then will promote to 20!

    what a legend, TY. Also i just realized one of the back cams dont work(i think its the wide), normally when you zoom in, it uses the second cam, but it does not seem to switch to the second camera for 18.1, im not sure about 19.1+
    We accidentally figured that out in debugging front cam too lol

    Sorry, can you point me there like a newb? I don't see your code base here >> https://github.com/npjohnson?tab=repositories
    Lol just go follow the wiki build guide for Cheryl.

    Wiki.lineageos.org, but:

    Sync GitHub.com/TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_razer_cheryl to vendor/razer/cheryl before running breakfast, and obviously use lineage-20.0 when repo init'ing instead of 19.1.

    This straightened me out! Much appreciated

    HI
    I really appreciate the developer, the UI is smooth and beautiful, the interface is nice, I tried to install it right away and there were a few small bugs.

    The front camera is not working
    The clock app is faulty and I can’t activate the alarm
    Search in settings does not display results. Once again thank you to the developer.

    Having Lineage 20 for the Cheryl is exciting news!

    However, my battery is struggling to keep up even half a day now (with no source for a new battery), and frequently running out of internal storage space for apps (I'm already using adoptable storage). Both my top and bottom grills have fallen off.

    I literally just placed an order for a Pixel 7 Pro, but hope to mess around with upgrading to Lineage 20 later (at least after the front camera known issue is fixed).

    Keep up the good work @npjohnson!
