This ROM will not be getting more updates or support​

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10, 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.

Reporting Bugs

• DO NOT report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
• 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.

F.A.Qs:

How to hide notch?
First, activate developer options by going to settings > about phone > click on build number 7 times
Second, Go to Settings > Advanced > Developer options > Scroll down until you find Display cutout then choose hide

Some info about why I do stuff

Why do you need to flash proximity fix uninstaller?
Because if the screen gets turned off during a call, it won't turn back on until the call ends, in addition to that, it makes the phone stuck on black screen in other ROMs

nice!

Great News. Good Effort. Please keep it up.

Download the latest build and gapps

• Reboot to TWRP
• Flash the latest build
• Flash proximity sensor fix (You only need to flash it once or when coming from stock ROM)
• Flash gapps (Optional; Open Gapps Nano Recommened)
• Reboot

Do I need to wipe anything in recovery prior to the flashing procedure? Do I need to format data?

Yes do a factory rest

Does it increase m51 performance?
Does it improve gaming...

Does it improve gaming...

I haven't test any games and I haven't used the stock rom at all so I don't know is it better or not... maybe you can test it and tell us

There's some problems (the recorder and 4g problem don't happen with the lineage from dgattupalli):
the lineageos screen recorder make my system extremely slow (~20fps) while recording, the same happens with basically any other recorder. while on the original ROM from samsung, this does not happen.
also, the adaptative brightness does not work. (Now it does!)
bonus: if I use xposed, the lineageos screen recorder just crashes. every other screen recorder just works, but with that lag. (please ignore this! it was my fault: I was restricting the recorder to run as a background task. this kills the application).
relax: the logs are from my installation with open gapps nano and proximity fix, nothing more.

the hardware acceleration of the system seems to be working fine for recording videos with the camera, also for decoding on vlc. things get very slow while recording the screen.
also, the cellular network doesnt reach 4G, just H+. (i'm from brazil) (It was configured to 3G not 4G, please forget this, i'm sorry)

lineageOS version: 17.1 (January 8th, 2021)
lineageOS Download url: https://sourceforge.net/projects/sa...age-17.1-20210108-UNOFFICIAL-m51.zip/download
gapps version: open_gapps-arm64-10.0-nano-20210122

am I using:
a task killer: no
a non-stock kernel: no
other modifications: just the proximity sensor fix

 

[myghi63]

Another problem: the proximity sensor partial fix blanks my screen, but never get it back. So I had to press all the 3 buttons at the same time to force rebooting the phone. (update: that's why the sensor's partially broken)
Why the sound of default screen recorder is so bad? (update: probably because the default sample rate of lineage is very low)

Proximity is partially broken. the screen doesn't turn back on until the call ends.
Adaptive brightness is working, but it takes a few seconds until it detects the light changes.
for the screen recorder, did this problem appear in the latest build or all the builds?
For network doesn't reach LTE make sure that in network settings that the preferred network type is LTE

 

[kry52]

Thank you for an update. The previous version caused random reboots even on a clean flashed phone, now I'll try to install a new one.

Can someone tell me, is the parallel application feature (dual apps) available in this rom?

 

[myghi63]

Can someone tell me, is the parallel application feature (dual apps) available in this rom?

This is a probably a knox feature. So I coudn't find anything about it on my LineageOS installation, and if I go back to the stock rom, this feature + some stuff like samsung pay will not work anymore. (nope, it works! sorry. I thought this wouldn't work anymore, considering what I saw on wikipedia about knox).

I can confirm that the problem was happening on the build before january 28. I can't test the newest build now because I don't have an SD card or OTG cable to backup my current installation (well, my /data is encrypted too). If you really want me to test it, please reply and I'll do it. (I tested and the problem still there)
For now I'm using the another lineageOS rom, which has less updates than yours and it doesn't get that slow while recording the screen, just if I do some gpu-intensive task. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-10-0-unofficial-lineage-17-1-for-galaxy-m51.4212531/ (Not anymore. Now i'm using your rom).
If you're able to test, please: open the recorder app, start recording the screen and do any normal task, while checking if the UI is running at about the same framerate as before. Also, does the microphone audio on the recording sound really bad too? (things get worse if you choose to show taps on the developer options)

if i flash this rom then back to stock, dual apps feature will not work?

 

[myghi63]

I can't confirm it now, because I would have to wipe everything and I can't do a backup, but I can say it probably will not work anymore (I tested, it works. sorry).
