Hi guys!!! Wassup??

Here, have some taste of LineageOS...(tasty)
Just kidding. Let's get to the real stuff.

------------------------------------
About LineageOS:
(On this thread, called "LOS" to save typing efforts)
It is fundamentally the same good old Cyanogenmod, masked with a different name.
I guess you guys know what Cyanogenmod is like.
------------------------------------

===========
Working:
===========
1) SIMS + JIO
(Sims take some time to get signal)
(Jio users : To get signal, go to sim settings, select 4G, and choose APN "jionet")
(Note : Jio users need to repeat this step after every reboot)

2) Sound
3) Bluetooth+ BT Headset music
3) Pretty much everything major is stable.(Require confirmation from testers)
4) LOS buttons menu works + All other LOS features

===========
Not working :
===========
1) Camera focus.
2) YouTube zoom (workaround available)
(When vid zooms, lock and unlock your device.)
3) Media glitch (sometimes media will fail to play)
4) GPS signal jump.(location scan lags) (fix link available in post #3)

==========
Installation:
==========
1) Boot to (custom ) recovery.
2) Wipe Dalvik(ART), cache, system, data partitions.
3) Install LineageOS ROM. (There is a progress bar!!!)
(Note : Ignore the typos and some "Error : Unknown command")
(The "Unknown command" error is harmless)
(You might get "Mount failed at /system"... It's OK)

4) Flash gapps (optional)
5) Flash Patch_1.zip (for updating some files)
6) After patch is flashed, it will auto-reboot.
7) Be patient. Wait for at least 10 minutes.

===================
Miscellaneous/Features:
===================
1) LineageOS features!!! Yay!!!
2) Android Nougat features!!!
3) Substratum legacy support!!!
4) First boot takes some time. Next boots take about 20~30 seconds
5) No pro/bloat apps included!!!
6) No gapps included. Flash separately.
7) ROM is NOT pre-rooted!!! Flash supersu zip.
(Love you and your work @Chainfire bro!!! :laugh

There is a YouTube zoom bug. Where I play a video and it is permanently zoomed in. How to fix this?

 

[HDHR]

Awesome work dude :good:

When the screen is zoomed, luck and unlock the device.
And don't quote the entire post bro. You should have used "@tanish2k09" instead of quoting.

How's the GPS connection with this ROM? Every Nougat ROM (I'm currently on Pixel ROM) doesn't update my GPS location when I move and often the connection gets lost. So going back to MM the only solution?

Bro. If you want GPS then don't use it. This is a test version, not recommended for users looking for a stable ROM. However, if you want to try how LineageOS feels like, or want to contribute in the testing phase, feel free to flash it.

GPS location takes long to refresh... It bounces your location. Your question has been pretty much answered now.

How's the cast screen in this ROM? Is the device being detected on TVs?

 

[sagarbagwe]

Do live Earth wallpapers work on this rom??

Users reported that it is working. I've not tested myself.

I can't test it. Maybe you can try it yourself.

@tanish2k09 thanks for helping. Also there is some third party apps that doesn't work properly. Hope these will be fixed on the next build. Thanks for porting this ROM tho bro.

I'll try to fix the apps incompatibility...

And I don't see your thanks on the first two posts. Don't thank in a separate post bro. Use that button.:good:

Edit : @ThomasX patch has been updated. Should fix non-working apps. You would need to reinstall them.

------------------
Kk got it. I hadn't moved Google app to system.

 

[sagarbagwe]

The Lenovo snapit also stop after clicking one picture and no focusing. Please suggest an alternative

But you did a great work:svetius: and the live earth wallpapers are working fine except for one.
