I won't keep up this project anymore as I passed to LG G7.

Thanks to everyone who supported my ROM.
Peace!

Check x86cpu's new thread.

  4. Install the ROM zip file
  5. Optional but recommended: Install GApps (you won't be able to do that after the first boot)
  6. Enjoy :) .

Awesome.!Thanks. a lot, I'll be testing this shortly.
Please let us know how the Bluetooth system works. If it works like stock I'll be upgrading ASAP!

As for the problem with charging the phone... I just recently bought extra batteries, and I have an external battery charger so I'm good to go! :)

All connectivities RIL, WiFi, Bluetooth (including Bluetooth audio) are working fine.
Audio and video are working fine too.
Also low-power mode Bluetooth is OK, forgot to say that :good:

Thanks for your hard workskippy
couple of quick questions:
Is FM-Radio working? Or is a working FM-Radio App included?
Is the ROM rooted?
A third party camera app, e.g. open camera, would work?

It says so right in the first 10 lines of the OP: Well, we have a really huge kernel bug: system crashes when usb cable is plugged in (you can charge your battery in recovery mode only).
ah, ok my bad (I can't read properly lol). I think rashed uploaded some new commits to his fork, maybe for charging. Im currently making a build to test.

Stock FMRadio is not implemented by LineageOS as it's not working, and I'm not going to implement it too. Sorry for that.
Is the ROM rooted?
Actual build (11/04) is not rooted: you need to flash Magisk (download link available in the OP), BUT next builds will be pre-rooted.
A third party camera app, e.g. open camera, would work?
Yes, you hit the point: stock camera won't work but any other third party camera would work perfectly. :)

I just re-builded everything using the latest commits by Rashed97 and others, but still same bugs: no fixes today. :crying:

That's a problem that happens every once in a while (and maybe more often on the LOS 15.1 builds for the G5), and has to do with the misc partition corrupting. Here is a thread that should work https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/guide-fix-wifi-mac-address-changing-t3533841 and here are the instructions I followed: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/guide-fix-wifi-mac-address-changing-t3533841/post70474540#post70474540. If you do this right (use your real mac address when following the instructions), the fixes should be for the most part permanent.

I mean, everything works fine it's not the best definition for this ROM :silly:
What do you mean when you say "Mac is not valid"?
Would you like to test the first build (11/04, no github commits) and see if it works?
Here it is: [url]https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754474747[/URL]
Thank you!

I had your problem in past, but not this time: I'm running the 14/04 build with no MAC problems.
Hope you managed to solve, feel free to PM me whenever you need help ;)
