[ROM][OFFICIAL][guacamole][11] LineageOS 18.1

I'm from the LineageOS MicroG group, hopefully I'm barking up the right ROM here, don't see any other threads for LOS Guacamole.

Having massive problems with battery drain. Seems like it's all to blame on the screen, it just makes the battery level drop like a concrete filled bucket falling into the Marinara Trench.

1. Reducing the refresh rate.
   Made a dramatic difference when I was on RR. But there's no setting for it. After looking through each page of replies to this thread, I'm seeing that the setting is indeed missing, and the only thing I can do is change a dev option to allow me to see what the rate is. But not reduce it. I've looked at Magisk hacks, Gravity doesn't provide that option. I've looked at adb commands, didn't find anything. I've looked at ROMs on the Play Store that I can rip and send to my device, none available for a device with a custom ROM. Anyone know how I can force reduce the refresh rate down to 60hz or even 30hz?
2. Smart Pixels turned off.
   No option for it, found an app on the Play Store that kinda works, but it's non-root so it doesn't really work effectively, still shows some panels normally. Any tricks or things I can implement with root to have that ability?
3. Anyone have any other suggestions on what I can throw in there to reduce drain?

Are you on the latest lineage 18.1 guac build? 20210110?
If so, in Settings >Display>Advanced there is option to choose refresh rate. In attached screenshot the refresh rate is displayed in top left corner. My display is showing 60hz, battery is alright.

There's the indication that I /might/ not be on the right thread. For me that option is missing I see font and rotation but no minimum refresh rate setting between them. But I'm wondering if it's just because I'm a version behind or something? Here's my build:

Seems like you are on Android 10, not sure. This page is for Unofficial Lineage 18.1, Android 11.

If you are on Android 10, official Lineage 17.1, maybe try asking here:

Hope you resolve your issue.

I'm having weird issue with this rom while trying to transfer files. When I connect phone to pc, it says phone is main device and tries to controll pc. On the other hand when I connect usb drive it says phone is controlled by that. When I try to switch it just says "couldn't switch". Only solution I found is transfer data through ADB or twrp.

When your phone is connected, maybe go to Settings, search for "USB Preferences" and see if you can change the "USB is controlled by" setting.

Thanks for effort, but this is the settings I meant by "When I try to switch it says couldn't switch" I don't know where the problem is.

What gapps are you using guys? I've tried many versions of NikGapps, but Google Chrome freezes every few minutes

I use NikGapps (20201231 I think) but I mainly use Firefox for Android so I didn't notice issues with chrome. I had issues with the gboard tho. Maybe you can try FlameGapps.


For the USB issue, I'm not sure what to do. Maybe try with a different cable lol. Are you on the latest build?

You can also do a getprop to see what settings are set for your usb, this is what I have:

$ getprop | grep usb
[init.svc.usbd]: [stopped]
[persist.sys.usb.config]: [adb]
[persist.sys.usb.ffbm-02.func]: [diag,serial_cdev,rmnet,dpl,qdss,adb]
[ro.boot.usbcontroller]: [a600000.dwc3]
[sys.usb.config]: [adb]
[sys.usb.configfs]: [1]
[sys.usb.controller]: [a600000.dwc3]
[sys.usb.ffs.ready]: [1]
[sys.usb.state]: [adb]

For fingerprint sensor seems like setting the display to max brightness helps a bit. Probably the fingerprint sensor needs to light up brighter with a larger radius to get a better reading @LuK1337.

Thanks, I will try Flame gapps. And for the usb glitch. Something is wrong on my side probably. Im unable to transfer data to my Pixel 2 on android 11 as well. My surface probably cant hanle android 11 devices correctly.

I found it freezes on every Android 11 rom, it's every chromium based browser.
Haven't had the problem with Firefox Beta.

I found out the same. Firefox worked fine, but edge had same issues, cause its also based on chromium. Im sad, lineage is best option for me :/ but I need chrome

 

[dankovac1999]

I'm back with some testing. Chromium based browsers freeze seems to occur only on latest build. I've installed 20210102 and it seems working fine

Good to hear. Any luck with gboard? Keeps crashing when I go to preferences. I might do the same haha

Gboard working as well for me. I'm using NikGapps full version

any guidance to use OOS Android 11 OB1 as base or use latest Stable OOS?

 

[dankovac1999]

What changes are in latest build? I reverted to stock with locked bootloader so I can't test it now. Is quirky auto brightness fixed? Do you plan adding OnePlus haptics? 7 pro has great haptics motor, but this rom can't utilize it

I don't feel much of a difference to be honest. Still quirky fingerprint and auto brightness sensor. I'm still on this ROM cause in general pretty stable for me.

Seems like lots of changes made in Feb 2nd but probably not in latest build.

Probably stable OOS is the better call. I think I read somewhere TWRP doesn't work on Android 11 OB1 properly yet
