Development [ROM][OFFICIAL][alioth/aliothin][11] LineageOS 18.1

[IIIIIIIII]

T - 3 hours and counting. Gosh, I can't believe I'll be able to get rid of MIUI within 3 hours.

Does anyone syncing 1Password app for Android with 1Password macOS WLAN server over WiFi? It seems that, for some reason, current build can not "see" mDNS/Bounjur-advertised services from my Apple devices on the same WiFi network.

Form my experience, I think the difference is mostly in the pre- installed software applications and other minor changes. I'm not even shure whether your baseband version is gonna be updated.

I can confirm that Poco's Baseband version has been changed/updated after applying MIUI 12.5.4.0 Global Update

Thanks for creating this ROM! I've been holding back on buying a Poco F3 until official LineageOS support was present and now am very happy. Can anyone recommend a good way to get the always on display working in a similar way as with MIUI? As far as I've seen there is no such feature included in LineageOS and since the Poco F3 has no notification LED I need some way to notice Signal messages etc.

Off-topic: the official LOS on my LGV20 has the swipe gesture enabled on the aosp keyboard out of the box. But on alioth, it is the old tap style keyboard. I'm using a magisk mod to add the swipe feature but I'll be nice if this was included in the core os at some point.
Attaching the magisk mod for those interested.
Also, I hate gboard!

Thanks a lot for the hard work

A few things that I found missing/problematic:

• The vibration strength is way too low. As in I can't even hear it buzz when its on my desk unlike with the default OS. I guess a slider like on old Androids or atleast a medium strength would be much better?
• The amount of volume steps for ring and notification volume are too low(7 steps from 0 to max only) while media volume can be adjusted at a much finer rate.
• On the Wiki page the GApps link sends you to the Nano-Version by default which I cannot get to install as it is too large, only Pico worked for me.
• In a previous post a new firmware was mentioned that is needed from now on but the install process might be a bit confusing because when sideloading the file it displays an error code(cannot read error: success) in the terminal and immediately on the phone switches back to another screen (using the LineageOS recovery) so there is no output/log or whatsoever which might leave people puzzled if it worked or not. (Oh, and also what about the European Firmware version? Does it matter?)
• Charging always displays as "slow charge" even when its quick charging but that might be an overall bug in LineageOS

Just my personal observations and feedback of course

Anyone getting skips and stutters with Bluetooth audio? I tied both SBC and LDAC (APTx isn't working) and found the same issue.
Lots of btgatt and network scheduler errors in the logs...something to do with the cut down gapps (nikgapps core)?

So turning off WiFi and/or switching to a 5Ghz access point seems to fix the issue.
For context, I have two BT devices connected (an audio receiver and a fitness band) and I'm using my Tab S7 to compare and confirm the audio skips.

OpenGApps "arm64-11.0-pico-20210929" fails to install over latest LoS 18.1 saying there is "insufficient storage space available in System partition".
I am on latest LoS recovery ()20210925) on slot b.
I have read some messages here and I agree I should use OpenGApps
Is there a way to fix this or is this an issue of the recovery?

Use TWRP. Impossible to flash with LOS Recovery.

Unofficial 3.5.1?

Hi! Does 5G work in this rom now? It only reaches upto 4G before.

 

[CHGICEMAN]

Does it work for me! What do you have under "Preferred Networks"? It should say something with "NR" there.

 

[Uqbar]

Hi! Does 5G work in this rom now? It only reaches upto 4G before.

NR is (should be?) 5G.
The point is whether in your country G5 uses any of the frequency bands supported by this phone.
That is: 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20, 28, 38, 41, 77, 78 SA/NSA .

For me it works since the 2nd LOS build, maybe you have different 5g frequencies in your country that it does not support?

 

[Ran94]

Does this ROM supports Indian Version of MI 11X 5G ? Thanks.

 

[Uqbar]

No idea. Refer to the offical manufacturer "Specs" page and to GSMArena.

Hi @ All

whats the correct way of doing an OTA and keep root (Magisk).
I'm on the latest LOS with LOS recovery.
Any guide somewhere ?

Hopefully someone can help me out with this.

Thanks a lot.

 

[thelegendaryharold]

Is it possible to fine tune the notification slider steps more? I find the lowest ring volume is still too high. Also will I need to update the firmware before updating to the latest builds if I already have Los installed? I'm trying to update to the October 1 build on Microg4Lineageos but it keeps failing (exits tohome screen when pressing update)

I am not sure if this exists for this phone (I use it on mi note 10 pro and poco f1), but I use SKYHAWK Recovery, It does it automatically.

But I did not install magisk on this phone so I did not try it and sticked to twrp.
