[ROM][OFFICIAL][capricorn][8.1] LineageOS 15.1

[torjek]

No, stick to your version!! HW are different, possibility to have issues.
You might be able to "install" (flash a zip, extracting some files is not that complicated). You are more likely to get some issues.

Okay, thanks.

Attention people

New build requires Oreo firmware.

Does it mean, that I have to flash the "MIUI 8.11.8 Global dev firmware" and then, I am able to install OTA-Updates again? They are not working anymore since the 17.11.2018.

I suspect you may also need to upgrade the version of TWRP you are running. I discovered that you need to be running 3.2.3 to handle the current OTA updates. Once you have it installed you no longer need to supply your PIN/password to carry out the upgrade. The whole process is a lot smoother.

Android clock broken

Android clock (com.android.deskclock) is broken for me with latest builds.

Here is crash log:

I have found this problem in another topic:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/clock-t2918126

Guys advice to go to /data/data/com.android.deskclock/databases and remove the file alarms.db
I have no root, so I just cleared application data - but I think that this is a bug and it should not happen.

Firmware upgrade

Hi, I got here because latest build I could install was 20181117. Now I read that I have to update firmware und found your links. My questions:

- where do i see which version to take, global or china? I already looked up specs of the phone, build, kernel, baseband version but can not find it

- will updating firmware result in data loss or is it just like installing a new build?

Thank you a lot for your help in advance.

Eddi

Edit: TWRP ist 3.2.3.0

One thing, Take this one indicating V8.11.X like this:
fw_capricorn_miui_MI5SGlobal_8.11.15_5c5145f64a_8.0.zip

And not what seems to be the latest V10.x like this:
fw_capricorn_miui_MI5SGlobal_V10.1.1.0.NAGMIFI_691a2ec0ca_7.0.zip

As you know Oreo is Android 8.0, it's indicated in the naming of the FW files at the end.
I'm coming from another rom, and the V10 was the latest, as opposed to here where V8 is the latest.
So here the V10.1.1.0 is not the latest, it actually don't have Oreo, it's android 7.0.

I got fooled so I prefer to inform you!

PS: Of course take the Global version or CN (China) according to your device HW.

Take global one if you live outside china, and updating firmware not make your data loss

I'm sure there's a way to identify which hw version you have (china or global), I don't know it.
As said, probably you are likely to have a global if you bought from anywhere else than China. Probably... Only you have the clues, the packaging, the order details, etc...

As for the firmware, as said you don't risk data loss. Why? The firmware zip files only contains the files which will be extracted and replace your phone current fw. For example, that's how the "baseband" version changes. It's not touching any filesystem related to data. You can simply flash firmware in recovery mode, and that won't touch any data.

In general, is good to take regular backups and copy them outside your phone. That's a good precaution.

 

[eddiri]

Thank you both for your answers. I bought my MI5s from gearbest and I now did take the global rom. No problems until now.
I do regular backups before installing new builds but I never had to update firmware. Therefore I was unsure. Again thanks a lot!

Hello,
I have LineageOS 14 and android 7.1.2, do I need to update the firmware before flashing this? and how?
Thank you

Since september 18th built, Lineageos 15.1 need oreo firmware, so yes, you need update your firmware before flash this rom for the first time. As you upgrade from los 15, don't forget to clean flash.

Yes, typical with the incorrect firmware. FYI "oreo firmware" is the one indicated with 8.X version. The ones called "stable" (10.x) are actually android 7 (Nougat, not oreo):

Make sure to take the global or China version according to your HW specs.

Can somebody help me?
I leave my phone on charge overnight, with "do not disturb" mode and "sleep as android (smart alarm app)" tracking running
I also use lullaby (white noise) feature, built in "sleep as android" app, with headphones volume set to full (i plug phone into pc speakers)
The thing is: when i wake up in the morning - my headphones volume almost always resets to "safe, to not damage hearing" levels, so white noise is ineffective and (for example) stupid noisy neighbours can wake me up.
I have suspicions, that it's happening when there is any notification coming with do not disturb mode enabled, but i'm not sure.
How to make headphones volume stay at the full level throughout the night?
Thanks in advance.

The battery drain seems to be very high compared to MIUI ROM. Could I do somethings? I made a clean install of lineage wiping everything.

 

[warface9991]

Last update drains battery. But why?
