[ROM][8.1.0][OFFICIAL] Lineage OS 15.x

[Spartoi]

I was on a stock unrooted Nougat ROM with a locked bootloader and decided to try this ROM so I unlocked my bootloader and flashed this ROM but I was met with the password screen. I entered the right password but was told the data was corrupt and to reset the phone but this was unsuccessful. I tried wiping everything in TWRP as well as changing the file system to F2FS and back to EXT4 but nothing worked. I ended reverting back to Nougat with this method:

https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72165217&postcount=10

And then I re-flashed TWRP and flashed Lineage OS 14. If the password bug is fixed or someone figures how to fix it, I'll try this ROM. I can't create any logs since I'm locked out of the phone, so I know this isn't really helpful but maybe it can help someone.

THIS IS HOW TO FIX THE ENCRYPTED PASSWORD BUG. You need to simply unencrypt the device.

Fix:
1. Flash the TurboZ kernel 4.0
2. Format data
3. Flash lineage

If that doesn't work / the phone won't boot at all -
1. Restore the device to stock firmware with fastboot
2. Flash TWRP
3. Flash TurboZ kernel 4.0
4. Reboot recovery
5. Go to wipe > format data
6. Go to reboot > reboot recovery
7. Flash lineage OS 15

This worked for me.

This worked for me.

I tried both instructions, but still getting the password screen after flashing Lineage OS 15. Was there nothing do in the OS after flashing Turbo kernel?

EDIT:

Never mind. Had to format data instead of wipe. Working now.

Hey @erfanoabdi , can you post the roomservice.xml you are using to get this compiled? I Thought I had everything added correctly but my build is bombing out....it's trying to build for the "soong" device so I clearly have something wrong here. Thanks. :good:

oh i'm not using roomservice.xml
just OP sources for kernel, vendor, device tree

but you may have kryo errors, right?
then cherry-pick all this commits :
https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/status:open+branch:lineage-15.0+topic:kryo-libc

also there's more commits needed for boot :

Try wipe > change file system(data) > ext4 then change it back to whatever it was (f2fs)
Also check the TWRP logs it should give some errors

Yep, that's exactly what I have. A few thousand of them .

Thanks for the info. I'll get them applied today and see how it goes.:fingers-crossed:

Do you get a soft brick with this?

 

[Spartoi]

I think EXT4 is the default file system for Lineage, so changing it F2FS would probably only cause more problems.

No bootloops, just can't get pass the "enter password screen". You can still get back to recovery and flash a different ROM.

 

[lollyjay]

@erfanoabdi can you give step by step instructions on how to get logs? This password screen is the first screen after the bootanimation is finished.

OK I have an idea:
What about setting up a password on your current ROM (not a pin, pattern, fingerprint, etc.); then flash LOS15. I cannot test now because I am at work, but perhaps someone can test it? Then when it asks for password, enter the one you set up on the previous ROM.

Some guys here have tested this scenario. Don't work, but, OP said if we do not encrypt current ROM and then flash LOS15, it does work. Not tested yet.

I came from unencrypted ROM https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/rom-erfanrom-flashable-zip-t3646962 and STILL asked for password.

Are you using wipe data or format data?

 

[xxrafasxx]

first I want to thank the great work you do at the same time to tell you about some problems I've had using LOS15

1- since I install the rom I have a lot of lag in all the applications take a long time to open
2- netflix does not start appears the application leyende stopped
3- the application google phone when making a call appears the legend is not compatible
4- the phone heats up very much for the same the battery it finishes very fast
5- the wifi takes to connect to the network

is what I have noticed until now and I return to RRremix LOS15 looks and feels great but I hope to be more stable and thanks again for the great work you do

Trying to flash the Gapps Aroma zip hangs at 98% with a message of a going to a website regarding the dialer. I ended up using the micro Gapps zip because of this when I tried flashed this ROM.

Are you using wipe data or format data?

I went to Wipe > Advanced Wipe, and then tried wiping only data initially, but also tried wiping everything and still no go. I think format data does the same as what I did, so there isn't a difference.

EDIT:

Never mind. Just noticed that that the "format data" option in TWRP says that it removes encryption. So I tried this option and then flashed Lineage OS 15 and it's working fo rme now. Thanks!

For me it was the same, but with PWD: "0000" it works

Any 4 number password you enter should let you boot up.

i got the password thing too and here is what i did. i tried a few times the format data option, but it came with errors, rebooted, tried again, it worked, after that i wiped everything, including internal, did a fresh install of L-Os and Gapps and now it works. So if you encounter this problem, try as many times as possible to format, untill it is successful
