[ROM][OFFICIAL][discovery][8.1] LineageOS 15.1

[LuK1337]

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 8.1 (Oreo), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Reporting Bugs

• DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
• Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
• If it is a random reboot, grab /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops and /sys/fs/pstore/dmesg-ramoops-0. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
• If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log

Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

How to flash latest firmware

[ protip: Currently Lineage builds depend on latest 8.0 firmware (50.1.A.13.123), they will not boot up on 50.2.A.0.* or newer ]

1. Download latest firmware with XperiFirm.
NOTE: When using mono XperiFirm will fail to unpack the firmware, you can do it manually using following commands:

for f in FILE_*; do unzip $f; done
unzip boot.zip -d boot

2. Go to the directory where the firmware got downloaded to and remove following files:
- kernel_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- kernel_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- persist_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- persist_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- system_other_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- system_other_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- system_other_X-FLASH-ALL-9B8D_0x00.hash
- system_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- system_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- system_X-FLASH-ALL-9B8D_0x00.hash
- userdata_X-FLASH-CUST-18AE.sin
- vendor_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- vendor_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- vendor_X-FLASH-ALL-9B8D_0x00.hash
3. Turn off your phone, hold vol dn and plug in the USB cable, the screen should be off and green LED lit.
4. Run Newflasher, it'll flash entire FW to your current slot then unplug the USB cable and power on your phone.
5. Turn off your phone, hold vol up and plug in the USB cable, the screen should be off and blue LED lit.
6. Enter this command: `fastboot getvar current-slot`, it should return something like this:
current-slot: _b
Finished. Total time: 0.001s
7. Now switch to the opposite slot by entering command: `fastboot set_active a` if the current slot is `_b` or `fastboot set_active b` if its `_a`, you should see this:
Setting current slot to 'a'...
OKAY [ 0.012s]
Finished. Total time: 0.014s
or
Setting current slot to 'b'...
OKAY [ 0.012s]
Finished. Total time: 0.014s
8. Unplug usb cable and repeat steps: 3, 4
9. Profit?

I installed the ROM and had everything work but it won't read my SD card. If I go into recovery I can view my SD card and files but when I am on the phone it can't read it

Pull a kernel log (adb shell dmesg after adb root).
[ actually I think i know what it's caused by, add me on hangouts/discord whenever it's not 4am in my timezone ]

If someone wants to be helpful, let me know if flashing this kernel https://kremowka.xyz/files/b767d5e5d4817b0530914d929f7611d315afd233.img ( fastboot flash boot b767d5e5d4817b0530914d929f7611d315afd233.img ; fastboot reboot ) fixes external sdcard ^.^
Once I get a confirmation that it actually fixes the issue I'll merge changes in repos and next official build will have working ext SD.

[ someone else already confirmed it works thus I merged required change ]

I don't need a log anymore. I literally just fixed it.

I know... I was trying to say you were fast. You got a fix before I could give a log

 

[Ricktor]

Windows 8 mobile? LOL I'll wait for the external storage fix, possibly linage 16 release. Hopefully we can format as internal since the stock Sony ROM can't.

You can flash the boot image located a few posts before for the external storage fix, I'm sure it will come officially in the next build.

 

[LuK1337]

Now that today's build is out I disabled downloading of kernel image from page #1 so that less smart people won't think they need to flash it on newer builds.

Any news about the dual sim support?

I don't have a dual sim device therefore I can't fix it myself. Feel free to fix it and submit patches onto our gerrit~!

I'm not a developer so I can not do that. Can this brick my H4213 if I try to flash it?

No, but dual sim feature won't work properly. You can keep using it as a single sim device tho.
