[ROM] LineageOS 20.0 UNOFFICIAL - 1.1 [2023-01-08]

[RKirpest]

Nice rom. But I will have to flash a different one.

Problems:
My phone keeps disconnecting of the phone network every few seconds. (KPN Netherlands network).
I tried switching to 3G, Disabling IMS, and manually selecting the profile with modem switcher. It all did not help.

Making unofficial and custom builds of LineageOS for microG based on this ROM is (very high) on my ToDo list.
No promises on ETA though

I have finally managed to create Unofficial and Custom builds based on this ROM. AndroidFileHost is still unwell, so the ROMs can be downloaded from Jaguar (links will expire in 180 days (2023-05-27) -

• Unofficial https://share.jaguar-network.com/dba26051-29c9-41d5-a4e6-02a746b47c85
• Custom https://share.jaguar-network.com/2403f484-3b2a-4191-abf6-4cdf6114ad27

Many thanks to the people here and in the `lineageos4microg/docker-lineage-cicd` repo who have provided invaluable help.

I have successfully dirty flashed the Custom build on my daily driver, and clean flashed both versions on a test device.. They both seem to work OK, and I haven't bumped into any major problems.

Have fun, good luck, and please feel free to provide feedback here, or raise issues in my Codeberg repo .

An outline of the necessary steps in this post in my Codeberg project issue Please feel free to PM me if you would like more information

Sorry to ask again, but does that mean that there's no fully working solution for installing Lineage 20.0 with microG up to this point?

I am very happy with 19 but would like to test.

Than. you in advance for a tip.

See the previous post: an unofficial LOS for Microg 20 ROMs is now available for download and testing. It's been running on my 'daily driver` device for at least 5 hours now, and nothing has broken yet

Have fun, and good luck!

Hey thanks a lot for you great work, as always!
By dirty flash do you mean dirty flash over your Los 19.1 MicroG builds?

 

[petefoth]

By dirty flash do you mean dirty flash over your Los 19.1 MicroG builds?

Yes. I flashed the new LOS 20 CUSTOM-PLUS-E ROM over the LOS 19.1 version, and everything seemed to carry on as normal when I rebooted

Which is handy because, when I was testing on my test device, I wasn't able to make a restorable TWRP backup of my 19.1 data. I did have an up-to-date ABRT backup, but I didn't need it

I just installed it, everything works great, if not better! Battery life seems better too. Overall a nice refinement of android 12. Im curious how this will develop.

 

[Arcline]

I encountered a problem, but I think it's connected to the Los 20 build itself, not the MicroG variant. When you open the files app and select the Sd card it shows only "No files", but 3rd party file managers work fine. Anyone encounter that issue?

Edit: I found the problem. A magisk module called "NoStorageRestrict". Just update it to the latest version.

I dirty-flashed your LOS 20 builds peteforth but encountered the same problem with connectivity on my german telekom network that some others mentioned before:
-disconnecting phone calls and no mobile internet connection possible. All the tips of setting new APNs switching back to 3G connectivity etc did not help at all.

The ROM simply seems to kill any connection to the network every few seconds.
I have stayed on the older LOS 19.1 version before and never had any issues.
Have i missed a fix for that problem or is there a way to downgrade to it again without having to wipe all my data and the phone completely?

I tried both versions, the LOS 20.0 4microG UNOFFICIAL and the PLUS-E CUSTOM one.

Thanks in advance for any tips.

I assume the others you mention were having problems on the non-MicroG built by @No1Alien (as I have only just published my MicroG builds). Have you tried with that build?

EDIT: Are your problems similar to those reported in this post?

Problems:
My phone keeps disconnecting of the phone network every few seconds. (KPN Netherlands network).
I tried switching to 3G, Disabling IMS, and manually selecting the profile with modem switcher. It all did not help.

I have not come across any of these problems in either my builds or @No1Alien's. They may be specific to your network operator, and I can only suggest trying whatever fixes have been mentioned in response to the earlier comments.

Have i missed a fix for that problem or is there a way to downgrade to it again without having to wipe all my data and the phone completely?

You could try 'dirty flashing` the old version. It's not something I've tried but it **might** work. Alternatively, if you have access to a Linux computer - real or VM - then backup your apps and data using Android Backup and Restore Tools project, then clean flash the 19.1 version. It won't backup everything but it's the best backup solution I know of (apart from TWRP, but I haven't been able to make TWRP backup / restore work on LOS 19.1 or 20)

Good luck, and I'm sorry I can't be more help

@peteforth: Thanks for your very quick reply

It seems like I am stuck on your LOS20 build 4microG a bit.
Dirty flashing back to 19.1 does not work and ends in a boot loop, the same for @No1Alien's original LOS 20 UNOFFICIAL version.

Everything works fine except the mobile data and GPS locking and calls get interrupted as soon as I switch on mobile data.

I evaluated in the LOS 19.1 UNOFFICIAL thread again and saw that those problems seem to be ongoing for some european t-mobile users since version 1.4 of 19.1 (and seemingly ongoing in LOS 20 now too?)
- I missed that before because I never upgraded further from 19.-1.3.

RKirpest's issues (the post you quoted) are identical to mine.

But perhaps someone can help me out with TWRP backups?
There's are options to choose System or System Image and Vendor Image in the backup function (the others do not seem to contain much data?)
-Which one do I have to tick for backupping my personal data?

Thanks again
Tim.

I know the thank you button exists but.... THANK YOU anyway for keeping alive this little nice phone with microg!

I don't remember seeing a logcat yet of when this network/data flapping is occurring, anyone?

 

[jimmygumble]

Hey. Can whomever created the custom build please start a new thread. It'll only cause confusion for people needing help with the official release in this thread.

Hey. Can whomever created the custom build please start a new thread. It'll only cause confusion for people needing help with the official release in this thread.

For general discussion of my Lineage for Microg builds for this and other devices, I use the GitHub Discussions feature in this repo

Any problems can be raised in my Codeberg issue tracker

I will continue to publicise new builds in this thread as and when I build them, which will usually be when @No1Alien makes new builds of his ROM.

Is my understanding correct?
Unofficial = rebuild of this threads rom
custom = microg variant

 

[petefoth]

Is my understanding correct?
Unofficial = rebuild of this threads rom
custom = microg variant

No. Both are Microg.
- Unofficial is standard LOS for Microg
- Custom is a custom build, aimed at users of the privacy-friendly /e/OS and their cloud ecosystem.

@derf elot Your TWRP (3.6.2) doesn't seem to support sha256 checksum files. Any chance to build one with SHA2 support or provide some instructions how to easily build that TWRP?

Hey guys! Thank you very much for this rom! Right now I do use [0]. I can't install GCam. Do any of you have successfully installed a GCam mod? One of my preferences would be the version of "onFire". While in some other threads with other ROMs people had success, I don't know if the issues are caused by Android 13, Lineageos 20 or the XZ1C itself. Do I need to patch the camera API first or something like that?

com.codeaurora.ims already has unchangeable permissions so there's little I can do as I haven't rooted.
I saw someone else wasn't able to dirty flash a downgrade, but I'll give it a shot.
Worst case I have to clean flash lineage-19.1-20220408-UNOFFICIAL-1.2-lilac, which is may work since it's mentioned here that everything from 1.3 on has this problem.
