Hello,

Checked device after a week or so - Was at zero battery - Charged & switched on - Faced bootloop - Entered recovery, did factory reset & everything - bootloop again - Since the Feb 2021 ROM (lineage-14.1-20210206-UNOFFICIAL-mG-oms-falcon) file was already on device flashed (via recommended recovery) - bootloop - Came here & found latest ROM file - Flashed that - Working just fine now.

Not sure what was wrong, but just could not get pout of bootloop till I flased latest.

Just FYI please @MSe1969
Thanks for the new update, a lifesaver.

Thanks for everything.

ROM is fine. I arranged WiFi by restoring a backup from other 7.1 ROM.

Now I have accomplished one thing I wanted... I have transformed my Moto G in a offline GPS navigator (because I don't use SIM inside)

With your "A ROM" and without gapps or other account I have installed Sigyc navigator and runs quite well (not fine on other ROMs) and I have enough space for offline maps.

Now, when I start my phone, Sigyc autostarts and I can begin driving wherever I want.

Now a new use for Moto G is possible and good for planet because we recicle.

All this benefits are possible because of your work.

Thanks again dear developers!

I am getting "The update verification failed" on 3 different phones (all with Lineage but different versions) at the moment I press "Download" an OTA update.

Could it be an issue with my modem?

No idea - I have specifically tested today the update via updater for both variants, all fine with my devices.
Seems your download is corrupted?

In case this happens to anyone else.
I updated to July version by dirty flashing as I have always done in the past without problem. This time, it didn't boot - stuck on boot animation.
Decided to clean flash.... same thing happened. Thought about the steps I took..... format data, flash ROM, flash SuperSU..... stuck at boot animation. Tried again without SuperSU and it boots! Flash SuperSU and it stops working. Flash Magisk v 2.3 and it boots and root is established.
So it looks like there is something in the security updates that finally kills off the old supersu.

Long time since my last post but I'm still here :)
Thanks for for the latest update

As I said before I've got 2 falcons - one is currently rooted with Super Su - I've updated both - no issues & SuperSu is still working satisfactorily - I did however update OTA

Thanks for the positive feedback.


The VPN Always-on feature is already available since Android 7.0, hence included also in this ROM (Android 7.1). So already with this ROM, you can check this option within your VPN client. Or do you mean something different?


I am not sure, that I got your point - could you please explain further? Nevertheless, I am afraid, that I won't be able to change the standard behavior of the "Trebuchet" launcher . . .
Sorry, sorry.
I meant the "block non-VPN connections" option; if you get disconnected from the VPN, it is as if you aren't connected to the internet.

And what I meant regarding screen rotation ...
That when you enable 180 portrait rotation (you hold your phone upsidedown) and lock the rotation many elements such as the lock screen don't keep the orientation; it's annoying.
Of course, that's all that it is, an annoyance. If it's impossible or difficult feel free to ignore.

I hope you don't mind if I ask here. I come from a previous custom ROM and followed path B, and now I'm having issues with specific apps like GMaps, crashing after a few seconds. I also tried installing Uber, which is another app that relies on the location services, and it behaves similarly to GMaps. Is it possible that UnifiedNlp isn't working properly, or could it be something else?

Sounds like if you go without Google services you should be using non-google apps (GMap) and as far as I know, Uber is using Google's MAP api. So it will have similar issues.
Try openMaps or sygic nav or other GMap alternatives to confirm the location services is operational.

In addition to @zagzag99 's answer, to which I 100% agree: Did you properly configure Unified NLP? You need to activate the location provider(s) first - this is a manual one-time activity after flashing the ROM...

Thanks for your replies. For some reason I couldn't find OpenMaps, but I tried with Sygic and it seems to just hang crash, too, so I guess nlp isn't configured. How do I activate a location provider?

Edit: If by provider you mean a location module/backend in microG settings, then I only have a Mozilla Location Service. I tried to activate it but the apps keep misbehaving.

Do I need root to install MicroG on Build A? How do I install it?
I want to use an app, which requires Google Play Services, but I do not want flash Gapps only for this app.

    Sorry for being noob... Is this still the best option for the old Moto G?

    Do I still just follow the instructions at the top of the thread? Or do they get updated as the thread develops?

    Thank you!
    In my opinion yes (as I am providing the ROM, my opinion may however not be considered "neutral") - if you want a stable daily-driver capable build. And I usually update the OP. So yes, follow them - read carefully at least once before doing anything.

    Hi,

    this is my unofficial LineageOS 14.1 build for the Moto G (falcon) device with current security patches, microG patch and substratum support.
    (This thread is for the falcon device, I have also a thread for preregrine using the same sources)

    As announced here, LineageOS has discontinued to deliver official 14.1 builds in the course of providing LineageOS 16.0 builds, but the 14.1 tree will continue to be maintained for security patches by the community (I am one of these contibutors, btw). So this build will continue.

    The build has got the following features:
    • LineageOS 14.1 with current security patches (from official LineageOS repositories)
    • Security string 2021-06-05, AOSP tag 7.2.1_r36
    • Additional custom build release (to indicate ASB backport status)
    • Adapted LineageOS Jelly Browser (additionally having Startpage and Qwant as search engines)
    • Root is not included and would need to be flashed separately
    • Patched for the use of the substratum theme engine (the substratum app and the themes need to be downloaded separately)
    • System certificates taken from AOSP Oreo branch
    • Kernel forked from LineageOS and updated with many security patches
    • OTA Support
    • Enforcing SELinux

    There are two build variants available:

    A. Default LineageOS 14.1 with substratum and microG patch
    • Patched for the use of microG - you can either flash Gapps or manually install microG as apps (or use neither of those)
    • (forked) Cromite Webview M121
    Download here

    B. Hardened build with pre-installed microG and F-Droid, patched for substratum
    For the security/privacy focused. It has to be said that microG seems to run better if it is pre-installed.
    • Pre-installed microG same as the LineageOS for microG project
    • Pre-installed AuroraStore / AuroraServices
    • Additional security hardening features listed below
    • SQLite 'secure delete' feature enabled
    • Access to /proc/net blocked for user apps
    • Bundled netmonitor app to allow network monitoring
    • Enhanced Privacy Guard: Switches for motion sensors and other sensors available
    • Oreo backport: SET_TIME_ZONE permission restricted to system apps
    • Oreo backport: Access to timers in /proc restricted
    • Cloudflare as default DNS (instead of Google)
    • Privacy-preferred default settings
    • No submission of IMSI/phone number to Google when GPS is in use
    • (forked) Cromite Webview M121
    • IPtables block script (to block connections to Facebook and Google)

    Installation Instructions

    YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE SOLELY YOURSELF FOR ANY ACTIONS YOU DO WITH YOUR DEVICE !!!
    Please note - I won't explain any single aspect (e.g. how to install 'fastboot' on your PC or troubleshoot USB connectivity issues under Windows). Search the net and consult the search engine of your choice or look here in XDA, there is plenty information available.

    Pre-Requisites
    • Get familiar with the hardware keys of the Motorola Moto G (falcon) device, especially how to enter fastboot mode (switch phone off hold power + volume down together for about 3 seconds) and recovery mode (in fastboot mode, switch with volume down key to the reboot recovery option and select with volume up key)
    • Have fastboot and adb installed on your PC and make sure, you can connect via USB to your device in fastboot mode and via adb
    • Download the most current .ZIP file of this ROM and place it to your phone's internal memory
    • An unlocked bootloader (read the warnings carefully and backup your data!
    • Your bootloader must at least be on version 41.18 (find out via fastboot getvar version-bootloader) - if your bootloader is below that version, the ROM will refuse to install. In that case, you need to upgrade the BL first. See e.g. here for more info. (I currently do not find the link, which I have used some years back, but the provided link should be helpful, too)

    Install TWRP recovery
    If you come from stock ROM and have just unlocked your boot loader, this is the next thing to do. If you have already a working custom recovery on your device, there is no necessity to replace it.
    However - I recommend to use the TWRP recovery. The following instructions are based on TWRP.
    NOTE: There have been reports of encryption issues in this thread, when using TWRP 3.3.x, which disappear, when TWRP 3.2.1 is used - I myself use the TWRP 3.2.1, as higher versions have mainly been developed for higher Android versions. I can't technically confirm or prove the situation, but based on the reports and the fact, that I myself did not encounter ANY issues for my own device with TWRP 3.2.1, I recommend this version
    To install TWRP, download the TWRP.img file (Note: replace "TWRP.img" in the following instructions with the real file name) from this section to your PC, get it into 'fastboot mode', connect the device via USB to your PC and enter the following command on your PC:
    Code:
    fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
    Afterwards, directly boot into 'recovery mode' (see above) - I recommend not to boot the phone's Android system after having flashed TWRP. Once TWRP has been launched, you may decide to reboot your phone and install the ROM at any time later. But the first boot after flashing TWRP should be TWRP in recovery mode.

    Advanced Wipe
    ONLY perform the steps described here, if you come from Stock ROM or a different Custom ROM!

    Boot into recovery mode. In TWRP, choose "Wipe", "Advanced" and specify "Dalvik", "System", "Cache" and "Data" to be wiped.
    Make sure NOT to wipe "Internal memory" (or "SD Card", if shown). Swipe to confirm the deletion and get back into the main menu.

    GApps (only for build variant A - do not flash on build variant B!)
    You have the choice: a. Use microG - b. Flash GApps - c. Neither of those (obviously, you cannot combine those options!)
    'microG' is installed simply by installing the respective apps, no flashing necessary. If you wish to have GApps, they need to be flashed together with the ROM. Download GApps in that case only from opengapps.org and put the .ZIP also to the Internal memory of your device. Choose ARM as platform, Android 7.1 and the flavor of your choice. I strongly recommend "pico" for two reasons:
    1. The Moto G has not much internal memory (8 or 16GB) and no SD card and GApps are notoriously known to waste a lot of space
    2. It leaves you the most freedom to only install, what you really need; you can later download and still install all the Google products you want from the play store, so you do not need to live with pre-installed Google stuff you have no use for.
    The 'microG patch' in this ROM has no negative impact on installing Gapps.

    Install the ROM
    In the TWRP main menu, choose "Install". A file manager appears to let you navigate to your internal memory (path /sdcard).
    Choose the .ZIP file of this ROM and swipe to flash. If you update from a previous version of this ROM, you don't need to perform a wipe. If in that case, you had GApps already installed before the update, there is no need to flash them again. They will be automatically restored during the flash process.
    If you come from a different ROM (or stock firmware), make sure that you have performed the Wipe steps above. If you want to install GApps, flash them directly after the ROM, do not reboot in between. (Note: If you wish to get rid of previously installed GApps, navigate to TWRP's file manager in the Advanced section of the main menu, go to path /system/addon.d and delete the file 70-gapps.sh, before flashing the ROM update)
    When finished flashing, return to the main menu, choose "Reboot" and then "System", which will cause your phone to boot into Lineage OS 14.1 - be patient, the first boot after flashing a new ROM takes quite long!


    Current / reported issues

    Why still on Android 7.1 (Nougat) and not a higher Android version (like 10, 11 or 12)?
    The falcon device is low on memory (RAM and storage flash memory), each newer Android release increases the resource demand and thus decreases performance and available memory - so higher versions won't really make sense for this device.
    Further, I haven't seen any ROM for this device on a higher Android version than Nougat with enforcing SELinux (yes, coming there indeed is "slave work"; none of the devs, including me for above stated reasons, is willing to invest this time...) - which is a No-Go for any daily-driver use (in that case, your device simply is fully open many vulnerabilities and applying monthly ASB patches on a permissive SELinux is close to a complete waste of time).
