It seems that there are still some users who are interested in the latest 17.1 ROMs. For this reason, I created a link to my dropbox which hosts the latest official ROM from 2022-02-10 as well as my latest unofficial ROMs. The most recent one is from 2023-01-23 with security string 2023-01-05. I will build updated ROMs more or less regularly as long as security updates will be provided. This link will now be valid for longer (at least until end of 2023).

@besembel Please share your links publicly in the interest of transparency and openness on XDA. LineageOS is not copyrighted, no one will take down the files. Sharing links via PM means that 1) people who aren't members of XDA can't download the files and 2) you're effectively controlling who gets access to those files, which is not appropriate.

the problem is mega, the host of the files . When detecting the public link they delete the files. On 2 occasions they deleted it

Is this ROM file perfectly compatible with the j7 2015 device (SM-J700K) released in Korea? The Korean device has a Snapdragon 410 CPU, not Exynos.

    LineageOS 17.1 is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device. This is a port by me for the Samsung Galaxy J7 2015 and is based on the great work of @danwood76 and @Stricted.

    All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS GitHub repository. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit the project's Gerrit page. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

    Code:

    * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
    * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
    * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
    * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
    * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

    Google Drive servers only allow a limited amount of people to download a file. I might switch to MEGA soon. I also have found a fix for video camera which will be included in the next update.
