Hello Simon. Congratulations to you, that you could made your build official.
I have installed your latest build for A52 F , but i have still a delay in SMS-Notification. Other Things are working fine.
I have put all Triggers from Accu - Management on High-Level. What can that be? If i am wrong, please excuse me.
In other Builds in past there was a Delay, too. When this is the legendary SMS - Issue, could you take a look at it to fix it ?

Hello good, I'm from Argentina I'm delighted to be here, I'm very happy that the galaxy A52 has official support, I bought it last year in September, and I had a Redmi Note 5 that I had to sell... I use roms since I had I remember the Moto G1 had the latest Android 4.4 nightly when it was Cyanogenmod, Thanks for your work and dedication! When I can I will donate something, sorry if there are errors, I don't know how to write in English.

Hi and thanks for the ROM. Is it me or the A52 brightness is sometimes all over the place. Going sometimes to max or min, seeing nothing.

I tried disabling auto-brightness but the same thing happens.

Anyone having the same thing?

Thanks

No one else is experiencing this?

When I am outside, sometimes the display goes to minimum brightness instantly.. I have to point the phone to direct sunlight for it to brighten up again..

I tried disabling auto-brightness without success.

Surely I am not the only one living where there's a lot of sun outside.. it occurs only when I am outside.

EDIT: I am experiencing exactly this issue https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/-/issues/3334

Thanks!

I have disabled Adaptive Brightness and Dark Mode. And have no issues in the way that you have.

Phone is A52F without Gapps

You mean the dark theme?

I noticed a setting "display mode" which has a "outdoor bright sun" setting.

It was set to "auto", that might be it. I set it to off. I'll see if I still have the problem.

Also one weird thing is my screen was working and brightness was ok, but as soon as I was touching the top third of the screen, the brightness would drop to the minimum.

I'll investigate further

Deploy phone until battery runs empty. Ignore all warnings, don't use power saving mode, just keep the phone employed until it shuts down by itsself.
Plug in and charge to 100%. Do not turn on until fully charged. When charged, unplug, turn on and battery is calibtated.
So simple.

Good, by following all the steps to install TWRP, could you make a backup of the official Rom and restore it in the future without a problem? if i wanted to go back

Yes, you just need to backup boot and super partitions. Data partition can also be backed up, but only if your data partition hasn't been encrypted.

I have a problemen. First when I installed LineageOS all my sensors worked, but when I installed the OTA update with LOS recovery (the correct one and I also don't think that was the problem) my sensors stopped working (my fingerprint sensor works and my camera, but the other ones don't work anymore. In apps it says it isn't supported). I have installed it again via the zip file when it was put on to the website, nothing changed. Now I got a new OTA update and my sensors still don't work... I don't have any custom kernel so I don't know what's the problem. Can someone please help me? And I want the solution to keep my data and apps (just like nothing happened) I don't care if it needs backuping somehow, but I atleast want that. Oh yea and I just put in all the images of the sensors, because I don't really know which ones are in my phone, but I do know there's a gyroscope and an accelerometer. Oh and my phone is the SM-A525F/DS

Ping me so I get an email, because I don't regularly check XDA

Please check with a more recent app like AIDA64, you can find it on Play Store.

If your sensors still don't work it might be possible that your /persist partition broke, try flashing persist from stock ROM with Odin.

    LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 12.1/12L, 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.
    Code:
    /*
    * Your warranty is now void.
    *
    * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
    * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
    * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
    * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
    * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
    */

    Supported devices
    All variations of A52 4G and A72 (A525F, A525F/DS, A525M, A525M/DS, A725F, A725F/DS, A725M and A725F/DS) are supported, but only A525F (6/128 variant) is well tested as I have this device.

    Installation instructions

    Recommended
    Follow the guide on the LineageOS website: A52 4G | A72

    Alternative way (TWRP/OrangeFox)
    1. Make sure your device's bootloader is unlocked.
    2. If not done before, flash blank VBMeta with Odin in AP slot.
    3. Make sure to have the latest available version of TWRP/OrangeFox installed.
    4. If wanted, backup all your necessary partitions (super, boot, data, EFS) before flashing this in case something goes wrong.
    5. Download the lineage build for your device from the link below and optionally download your preferred GApps package too.
    6. Flash the LineageOS zip using the "Install" button.
    7. Optionally, flash Gapps right after.
    8. Format data in TWRP/OrangeFox as the very last thing, otherwise you may end up in a bootloop if coming from stock ROM.
    9. Wipe metadata and cache partitions. This only has to be done once when you install LineageOS.
    10. Reboot

    Downloads
    You can find them here on a mirror hosted by me.

    Gapps (choose arm64 and 12.1/12L): MindTheGapps | OpenGapps canary | FlameGapps Canary | NikGapps Canary

    Announcement!
    A52 4G and A72 are now officially supported by LineageOS!

    From now on new builds will be released weekly on LineageOS' website. That means every week there will be new official builds for both devices.
    New builds for A52 4G will currently release on every Friday and for A72 on every Saturday.

    What are the differences between the unofficial and the official versions?
    • The official versions will be updated frequently (every week) with the latest changes from LineageOS.
    • They have OTA-Update support built-in, which means you will be able to easily update to newer versions using the Updater found in Settings->System->Updater.
    • Also, as mentioned by @thatdevsherry and a few other people, hotspot accidentally went broken in the last unofficial build. This has been fixed on the official ones.
    • Macro (A52 and A72) and Tele (A72 only) cameras are now accessible by Gcam, which wasn't working before.
    How do I update to the official version?
    You should be able to just dirty flash the official build over the unofficial ones.

    Apart from that, all device trees and the kernel can be found on github.com/LineageOS and review.lineageos.org. Feel free to contribute!

    Hey people, again thanks for waiting patiently and reporting bugs. Lineage 19.1 is now available with some more bugfixes and improvements!

    Apart from that, SeLinux is now enforcing!

    Also, this build has encryption enabled by default. That means that your data will be encrypted right on boot. If you don't want encryption to be enabled flash something like services disabler before first boot.
    If your phone keeps rebooting after flashing lineageOS 19.1 with encryption enabled make sure to format data in recovery instead of only wiping it.

    Some notes regarding A72 support
    Since I don't have an A72 here it was kinda hard to blindly support it. But first I wanna thank @madseason.live and Leo on Telegram for testing my builds on their A72's. Even though both of them did good testing, we didn't succeed in getting the fingerprint sensor to work. A72 uses a different sensor and driver than A52 does and without having the device here by myself it's hard to fix that without knowing what the actual issue is. It only works for setting up a fingerprint, but actually unlocking the phone with it doesn't work. Additionally, for somehow screen rotation is flipped by 90° which makes no sense at all since A52 and A72 use the same sensors except for fingerprint and camera. If someone has an idea or wants to contribute, feel free to contact me.
