Not for me on my A520F/DS. Maybe there's a component variant and driver doesn't match.
[ROM][A5|7 2017] LineageOS 18.1 Official / 19 Preview
- Thread starter Option58
- Start date
No. Since i need to use NFC i flashed Stock rom. I'll wait for any fix or update release, which I think won't happen because the Lineage Team is working now on 19 version. After a stable release I'll try. Anyway thanks buddy.
But the encryption process stuck. I did a reset with Vol-+Power and after reboot it was encrypted! Strange

So I just want to report that I have been using the 19.0 for few days now and there are no problems so far everything is flawless and smooth "relatively", I just want to say it is mind boggling to me that 5+ year old budget phone has gone over 7 android versions from 6 to 12 and also the fact that my a52s still didn't receive android 12 update but my 4 year old phone already running it like that is iPhone level software support and proves that those manufactures can support their devices for 5 years minimum if they want to which would save the environment from e waste way more than removing a charger for example, but they simply choose not for obvious business reasons, it is almost like they only care about the environment if there is money in it for them even if it is on the expense of user experience.
Intermadiate devices are good and can support new Android updates. The problem is the companies established 2 years software support for these devices. Obviously money is the answer. Who's wants to purchase a new device if system is updated and everything works fine?
does anyone else has low sound when recording video through any means like open camera, whatsapp etc? Is there a way to fix this without root, I heard editing mixer_paths.xml helps but I guess that requires root and somehow I couldn't find the file in the twrp file manager (didn't manage to pull it with adb either)
Hi @Option58
at the moment I fail to build LOS 18.1 for a5ylte. It worked August 21, but now it fails with:
and a lot more undefined symbol error.
My build environment (on Ubuntu 18) consists only of LineageOS's repositories including the TheMuppets repository for the Samsung specific stuff. Everything synced to the current state, no modifications.
I see, that LOS's hudson builds the LOS18.1 firmware for a5ylte, so why should it fail for me with the above error? Is there something more required?
It would be great if you could give me a hint how to fix the missing references.
Thanks!

Like you said, hudson a7y17lte build completed successfully two days ago and I see no camera related changes, so I will assume the problem lies on your build system.
What I would do in your case is make clean (or first remove just those files log referenced in out folder) then try again. Also verify that all files in your lineage folder are untouched. You can do it with repo status.

Problem solved meanwhile.
Although "repo status" did not show anything, and vendor/samsung is correctly mentioned in roomservice.xml, the "repo sync" did not update the vendor/samsung (from TheMuppets) repository. It was on an older state.
So after a "git pull" the vendor/samsung was updated and the build runs again fine.
Still unsure of how that could be the cause, but nevertheless glad it worked out for you, that's all that matters.
Option58Предварительный просмотр LineageOS 19.0 для Galaxy A5 | 7 2017 г.Во-первых, имейте в виду, что Lineage 19, как известно, на данный момент находится в раннем состоянии как ром, и проблемы не должны быть неожиданными. Однако мне удалось заставить работать большинство стандартных функций Lineage (престижность команде Lineage). И с точки зрения устройства, несмотря на то, что предстоит еще много работы, все функции телефона должны работать, как и раньше.
Как и каждый год, пришло время выпустить предварительные сборки Lineage 19.0 на базе Android 12.
Поскольку это Android 12, сообщество предприняло усилия по внедрению цветного движка Google Monet, обратного от пикселей Google. Это не стандартная часть Lineage rom, по крайней мере, до сих пор. Но я решил выбрать патчи и сделать две отдельные сборки. Один с Моне и один без. Таким образом, пользователи сами решают, что им больше нравится, в зависимости от их личных предпочтений. Однако, если вы переключаетесь с одного на другое, необходима чистая вспышка.
Важный! Если вы используете TWRP, у вас должна быть версия 3.6.0 или выше, чтобы прошить это. Старые версии не работают под андроид 12 и будут зацикливаться.

How can I activate call recording on LineageOS 19?
Indeed, I jubilated too early. The build went long (I thought it would succeed) and failed in the end with the same error as before.
To double-check, I built LOS18.1 for Samsung a5xelte, which went smoothly and complete.
So I will further check and try to find out, why this "libcameraservice.so" cannot be linked in my environment.
Hi there and thanks for a great job to keep our devices still alive!LineageOS 19.0 Preview for Galaxy A5|7 2017Firstly, bear in mind that Lineage 19 is known to be in an early state as a rom at this point and issues aren't to be unexpected. I've however managed to get most of the standard lineage features working (kudos to lineage team). And device-wise, although there is still a lot of work that needs to be done under the hood, all of the phone functions should be working as before.
Like each year so far, it's time for Lineage 19.0 preview builds to be released, based on Android 12.
Since this is android 12, there have been community efforts to implement google monet color engine reversed from google pixels. This isn't the standard part of lineage rom, at least hasn't been so far. But I've decided to pick the patches and make two seperate builds. One with and one without monet. That way users get to decide whichever they like better themselves, depending on their personal preference. If you are switching from one to another however, a clean flash is needed.
Important! If you are using TWRP you need to be on version 3.6.0 or higher to flash this. Older versions do not work under android 12 and will splash loop.

Sidenote: In order to make these builds, I am using a partition on a traditional hard disk drive with limited free space. Currently trying to save up for a solid state drive. If you find the work I did helpful, you can help via this link.
Just a question regarding the 19.0 Preview version, any idea when will it become an official one and fully stable to replace 18.1? Just roughly, not expecting precise date
Still afraid to move forward into it, so far still happy with Android 11
... but Android 12 already makes me curious 
It's definitely stable enough for use, thus far there are few (if any) more bugs than android 11 so don't be worried at all about trying it out (although I would make a backup first anyway)Hi there and thanks for a great job to keep our devices still alive!

That's right, our kernel is 3.18 and there's no eBPF backport (yet). Fear not, I'm using a hack in core files to make everything work for my own a12 builds, but can't push that to official. However, that's just the current state, who knows what might happen eventually.7New LineageOS 19 build up!
This time I tried something new with DotOS quick settings panel and a few other stuff on top of what lineage 19 normally is, hence the FE branding. But it's also a new build, with security fixes and patches from LineageOS in general.
Looks wonderful with blur, but adds additional load to our GPU, so it couldn't be enabled on default. To enable add to build.prop:
Code:ro.surface_flinger.supports_background_blur=1 ro.sf.blurs_are_expensive=1
...or find a magisk module that does the same.
Edit: A regular new build is now up, too. So the full changelog is as follows:
- 20220503
- Added an FE edition with DotOS qs panel along with the regular build
- Added a workaround for SafetyNet check
- Small monet fixes and improvements
- Synced with the latest LineageOS sources
Can be dirty flashed, download link is in the third post.1

124LineageOS 18.1 Official for Galaxy A5|7 2017
LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 11 (r), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
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. */
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 Gerrit Code Review.

37FAQ
Help my sim doesn't work
Please read the installation instructions more carefully. Oreo firmware bootloader and modem is a must.
You can find the collection along with the guide in THIS xda thread.
I'm sometimes having crackling sound when listening to music
Turn off 'ok google now' functionality in google app settings. If you have troubles finding it you can as well go to settings>apps, find app called 'google' and disable microphone permission.
Does this rom support VoLTE?
No. And it likely won't in the near future. Samsung's exynos VoLTE implementation is proprietary and non-standard. It is not possible on AOSP based roms for the time being.
My camera flash doesn't work
This is an issue with the camera app. Just tap to focus anywhere and it will start working.
My device fails to encrypt
1. You were likely using older TWRP, update to the latest version
2. Backup your data somewhere (external sd, pc...)
3. In TWRP Advanced -> Format data.
My hardware keys light up whenever I touch the screen
Navigate to Settings->System->Buttons->Backlight and tick 'Illuminate buttons only when pressed'. You might want to reduce time on the scaler to 1 second, too.
How to switch to full screen gestures
1. Navigate to Settings->System->Buttons->Backlight and tick 'Enable on-screen nav bar'.
2. Navigate to Settings->System->Gestures->System navigation and tick 'Gesture navigation'.18New build up!
This one is huge. The changelog list is big and I've probably fixed more bugs in the previous 7 days than I did in the past 6 months.
Lineage 17.1 for this device is getting better and a lot of bugs are squashed now. We can now declare this a beta!
All the changes for this build are now properly sorted and merged-in. You can easily find everything at github.com/LineageOS, build the rom yourselves and contribute with new code, if you are able to.
- Beta 3.0
- Pulled RIL blobs from G965F Q firmware (more modern, fixes signal strength)
- Fixed issues with connecting to RILD (fixes in-call volume, fixes echo in calls)
- Updated GPS blobs from A720S P firmware (better signal, we are actually able to acquire a lock)
- Updated fingerprint blobs from A720S P firmware (works more reliably, dropped all hacks)
- Pulled sensors from A720F O firmware (cleaner)
- Updated DRM to support Widevine L1
- More HALs are binderized
- Build FlipFlap (a flip cover app)
- Fully written and enforced selinux policy
- Latest LineageOS sources
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=30460317Also I've just updated my sources so you can fully build the rom again.
I've tested some roms like PixelExperience today on my device. It's not bad with the added 'google' feel to it. Later I might test RR and others.
All that I'm asking from both developers and users is please be clear that these roms are based on LineageOS. Meaning that most of the hard work that actually got them to work was done here, on LineageOS. And unfortunately most of the issues they are facing as well Work was done by RaymanFX, forkbomb, and in the latest days by me. Not respecting this makes me less motivated to keep working on the device.
Cheers :highfive:
