[ROM][N960F][LineageOS 15.1][UNOFFICIAL][14-01-20]

[Tchania]

I wish I weren't a fan of spen features. Stock firmware is hard to mod and there are many complications when it comes to certain magisk modules and (ed)xposed modules but the spen features are very good. I backed up everything and downloaded this rom but then stopped myself from flashing it because I will loose spen features. But I love lineageos but spen but lineage but the pen...
What a dilemma!

I am running this for 2nd day, the battery life is really amazing, from all the ROMs I tried definitely the best. I don't have the patience to try the millions of gcam apks to find one that supposedly has also portrait and nightsight working, which I'd love to try, but for now at least the rest of the modes work fine. I don't like the sound all that much, but I also don't like using viper, and actually don't want to be rooted right now because of google pay.
Would it be possible to include the DSP that came with other lineageos builds? The sound is really flat.
I miss the gestures from Pie One Ui, for me it worked really well, and now I tried the xda ones, fluid, and I think one more, but not a very smooth experience. I don't even need gestures, just audo hide of the navbar, any ideas how to achieve that, if that is possible?

nevertheless thanks for the ROM, I was really unhappy with my Note 9, and actually was about to sell it, but will stick a bit longer now.

Finally a rom that's worth keeping! I was on one ui for too long and had enough with it, it's buggy, it stutters, bad battery life etc.... This rom with the gcam set to Auto exposure hdr 8 is just fantastic! Thank you so much for the greatest you have provided! It took me a few hours to get the ark2 vendor image so is it possible if you can provide a link to it or if you want I can provide for others? Thank you again

Had some issues with lineage audiofx on the headset profile a few months ago when I last tried so kept it disabled. Will enable it in the next build and see.

Also Lineage has what you want for hiding the navbar see attached screenshots.

 

[londonhilton]

yes, thank you, I meanwhile remembered during the day there is extended desktop, I just did not use lineage for quite a time and for some reason thought it is something else. I tried global ON for it but then I had problems waking up the phone, i would hear the unlock sound, but display was off, it took like 30 seconds and several attempts to wake the phone. as soon as I set the global switch off, and just set the rules per app, which anyway is better, in some app I want both hidden, in some only status bar, it works great.

Today I had a lot of phone calls, listened to spotify, even watched couple sitcom episodes in the morning, and battery life is still great, if that percentage can be trusted. Funny enough VLC took 6% for more than an hour of video playback, Spotify for the same amount 11%.

That audiofx would be worth a try.
Great rom, really, for a long time I was not so excited.

did I botch my system somehow or is it "known" that Magisk shows cts profile mismatch. I tried unroot, different versions, but it still is there.

Currently I use magiskhideprops and set my fingerprint to the s9+ to pass cts. Not sure on the best way to fix it atm, last time I tried I broke it ?

Excellent work OP. You might swing me into reconsidering a Exynos model afterall. Don't suppose anyone has any battery life screenshots to share?

I've done the steps to pass safety net but Google Pay still does not work. Does it detect tripped knox?

It's not a rom issue. Google recently updated Google play services and it seems like that checks for root now. There are workarounds for it same issue as stock rom.

This is an average day for me, not too bad but I've had much better.

magisk module "SafetyPatch" works as well and it is just "one click", install&and be done with it solution. I guess it also fixed why I now was able to see and update Netflix, as before I had to download apk. So all well now. I tried also the ainur modules, jamesdsp and the other one, did not work really.

You have to downgrade your Google Play services to v15.0.90 and disable background data access to Google Play Services. Also make sure you are on Latest Magisk 19.0 aswell. Only issue i have is it keeps auto updating when i connect to WiFi

I tried that workaround but had the same issue. I just clear gms data from /data/data reboot and quickly set up Gpay and seems to work every time for me.

Yeah it worked for me for a day or so then i try and it says can't use in shops. Lucky i had my card on me.

guyus, does lineage support unlocking with PIN that does not require hitting OK once you enter correct PIN but would rather unlock automatically?

I think you can put lock screen to none and use another custom lock screen that supports this if it don't support it.

Hi, amazing work!
Can you release it for n9600, please?
