[ROM][A520F/DS] LineageOS 14.1 Alpha

[MSandMan]

I've done everything you said but I have the same promblem: The phone can't recognize the SIM and when I shut it down the phone automatically restart
Also when I've tried to flash the .zip that you've linked, at the end of the flashing process there is line that said: "Reboot the phone now", but the phone doesn't reboot by itself and once I reboot it manually nothing changes
Can you help? I really want to use los on this device!

Ok man just use official twrp from TeamWin this link
twrp-3.2.3-0-a5y17lte.img

Or you can flash this twrp-3.2.3-0-a5y17lte.img.tar in Odin.

First go to lineageos.org and download latest lineage 14.1 ROM for A5 2017.
And flash in twrp nougat_A520F_FD-Bootloader_Bin_v7
Now I use this rom

In nightly version support VOLTE ???
Plz tell me there is volte enable open in connectivity

Hi, everyone. ughh...this post might get lost in the discussion...
Anyway here's the news:

Looks like the last official 14.1 build will be final. There will be no new builds, updates or support for LineageOS 14.1 version.
The latest builds are 20190127 for a7 and 20190217 for a5. I reuploaded them here one last time because lineage isn't willing to keep hosting old builds on their server, just in case someone still needs them in the future.

PS: You'll need old Nougat bootloader and modem as a base

Thanks for this, brother.

So...in all honestly is development coming to a close on these devices (A520/A720)? Or do we have more to come do you think?

I think we just need to known our options.

I've now found a new favourite ROM other than RR and would be Happy to keep running with these until I renew my contract in November when I'll be getting a new device

I'm not saying anything just for a5 or a7....lineage 14.1 support is dropped for every device out there.

That question is not something we know for certain. New developers or roms can always appear, of course. For me personally, I like my A7 and feel it's still suitable for my daily driver, don't see any reason to upgrade yet.

Thanks for confirming. I wasn't sure if it was just 14.1 to be ditched.

Looks like 15.1 has been forgotten and 16.1 is now the aim to get official?

Do you think that will happen? Has RaymanFX moved on?

Yeah well 16.0 was a successor to 15.1 in a way. When you have 15.1 already working making 16.0 isn't very hard.

I can't say anything about him for certain really, only he can speak of himself. But we are now lacking developers and my free time to get 16.0 official. That 16.0 unofficial thread is the best I could, for now.

Thank you for setting our minds at rest. You've done an amazing job, brother and will continue to do so. You're contributions are huge in terms if driving the development forward on this device.

I doubt we would have so many flavours of custom ROMs had it not been for your commitment.

Thank you for taking the time to talk to us all about the current state of works.

just a question in regards to the official version 14.1 which is 20190217, security patches 01/2019. will there be an update, especially for the latest security cvs? thank you.

No more updates for 14.1 now (all devices)

Move to 16 after you've updated bootloader and modem (guides on XDA for this)

Lineage 14.1 (oreo bootloader)

Hi everyone. I know that a few posts above I told you that the 14.1 build I re-uploaded would be the last. And that's kind of the truth.
But there's one thing I forgot to do. Hence, I would've done it even earlier but sorry, we all have real life...
Anyway as you know newer oreo firmware don't allow us to downgrade to nougat. And our 14.1 needed nougat bootloader to work.
This was the most stable lineage version so far, it's a shame for it to go to waste.

So here are basically the builds I posted above but patched to work for oreo firmware bootloader and modem most of us use.

download: get.mcfy.fr | androidfilehost
sources: https://github.com/cm14-7880/

At least if someone still wants to make use of it. I hope it helped.:good:

Hello,
can you tell us what is the difference between the nougat and oreo version.
Looking a little I saw that "qca_cld_wlan.ko" was different as well as the sources of the kernel.
The main difference is it in the kernel?
Thank you for your work.

Hi,
I don't remember every single bit. You can already look for all the differences on the source link I posted. But basically I backported the oreo firmware kernel, yes.

Yes it works.
I just flash this rom with BL_A520FXXU4CRF1 and CP_A520FXXU4CREH.
I see that in the deposit the sources of the kernel are A520FXXU7CRID.
This is great news for those who have an oreo bootloader and want to load LineageOS 14.1
Thank you

Hello, I compiled a version with the source of the deposit cm14-7880.
My phone starts without a display, all is black.
I'm sure it starts because I hear the beep for entering the password.
If I replace boot.img with the one you provided everything works.
Is the lineage-a5y17lte_defconfig file from the repository correct?
Which track to follow?
Thank you

Yep the sources I released are correct. You are most likely doing something wrong.

 

[f5bud]

it's good, I found my mistake. I forgot to replace the dtb.img file.

 

[Option58]

@f5bud I'm not very likely to update this with new builds, security patches etc. Just showed you how. If you wish you can release new monthlies or so.

fancy joining me on https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...om-lineageos-microg-15-1-alpha-t3927090/page2 ?
i think you have some patches that could be pushed on the 15.1 branch, am I right ?
