LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 9.0 (Pie), 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.

This it not a GSI. It is built on actual device trees

What's not working?
You Tell me
Code:
Obviously Samsung's own features such as Samsung Pay, KNOX, Theme Center, Game Launcher, etc. won't be ported to LineageOS. We may have our own implementation to similar functions, though.
Iris sensor does not work because AOSP upstream does not support that yet.
IMS services (VoLTE, VoWiFi, etc). Samsung has their own proprietary implementation. It is not really possible to easily port that to 
LineageOS .
What's working?
Everything

Great build. Just installed on my old J7 Prime .
Installed via TWRP without a problem, along with GApps and Magisk 20.
A good surprise is that my banking app now works - the previous rooted stock wouldn't work and this does for some reason.

Just make sure you flash THIS version of GApps (I tried them all and this is the only one that worked):

And Magisk 20 here:

Silly question, but is that ARM64?
I was looking for a ROM that wasn't 32bit limited like the original, so I can try and take advantage of a more updated Gcam, but so far I have found nothing stable enought for daily usage...
