What a coincidence! I found an S4 in the battery recycle bin yesterday and boum today I installed LineageOS on it without knowing it was JUST released haha, thanks!

Goodmorning everyone. This morning I installed the new [OFFICIAL] [NIGHTLIES] LineageOS 16.0. It seems very well done, congratulations to maintainers. The first thing I tried was the GPS and I must say that it is very fast to fix the satellites. Thank you.
Translated with google translator I apologize for errors and incorrect words.

Can anyone explain why, after years and years of devs saying that the S4 would never get official Lineage support (again), it's getting official support (again)?

Because there was no developer who had time for it.
Be glad now that it is now official .

There is a long story behind the scene....but doesn't matter. Side mentioned a lot of times S4 will get official support...but some "devs" on some "unofficials" threads had as FAQ that it will not be official support..
Anyways, is it matter anymore? You have official los now.

Installed it on my old s4 jfltexx over the old lineageos 14 without any problem. Everything seems fine for the first 30 minutes I used it but some time later now after I didn't used it anymore I can't get past the login screen. Every time I put in the correct pattern the screen goes black and after a second I have to put in the pattern again.

I used this rom since yesterday as second daily driver, compared it to other roms and I have to say, that it's great. I got some calls, wifi/bt/data connection is stable with instant connect. GPS is VERY fast like already mentioned. Battery life time seems to very impressive, the UI speed is really good. For me it seems to be more stable than nightly. Thanks to the devs.

hi all, casting working on this build?

 

[nmb52]

Developer mode not showing after enabled

I backed up the Lineageos 14 load on my phone and installed the 8/8 nightly. I followed the installation instructions, using adb sideload to push the packages to the phone.
I installed the nightly along with addonsu and opengapps nano. I enabled developer mode, but the settings list does not show the developer mode, at least as it does in 14. Without that I cannot get su to actually work. Has anyone else seen this? Thanks....

Settings => System => Advanced => Developer options

hi all, casting working on this build?

Not working, I have GT-I9515 with unofficial LOS 14.1 (from Exodusnick) and wireless screen casting works with my LG 49LF631V TV set, while GT-I9505 with official LOS16 doesn't want to even find it.

Does all variants also include gt-i9500? I've seen other threads that support all variants except i9500, so I want to be sure
