awesome! official acknowledgement!
really earned for your hard work!
congratulations. I've installed few of the builds and from that moment I haven't looked back, only forward to next build. :cool:
Honestly, respect!

2 Questions though...
1 there used to be custom los 17 gapps (nano & pico only)? and now you link to the original site? are all issues (don't even know what they were) sorted?
2 what is the recovery provided on the lineage os 17 download page? any advantages over standard twrp? or is it a custom twrp or so?

The LineageOS recovery is nothing like TWRP. It has far fewer options. Would not recommend.

Google Play is working (as a soft, i didn't checked payment yet). Lucky, without magisk working also banking apps, except one, where fingerprint option isn't available to login.

Hello,
I'm running 16.0 from the other thread unrooted atm.
If I were to upgrade to 17.1, which version of gapps would I need to install?

I used nano pack from official gapps site. Of course for Android 10.
By the way. I'm really surprised how this build works well. I'm not big fun minimalistic version of Android but it works :)

Hi Guys,

can anyone noticed massive battery draining? At night my phone with this ROM discharged ~40%, only with wifi and 4G mobile signal. If I turn on the airplane mode, the draining stops. It is not an app issue, because I checked the usage info. I think, it's a radio or kernel issue. I turn off the 'mobilenet on while using wifi' in the developer setting, and the location options too, but still draining. If I turn off the Airplane mode, the battery discharged 5% in 5 minutes. I didn't flash Magisk or any root.
My question is, can I flash an another or factory kernel or radio on this ROM? Or does anyone else have this problem?

Thanks, and sorry for my english!

I'm not noticing it. During night, drain is about 10% but my battery has only about 60% original capacity.

    An update;
    I wiped everything, went with a clean install:
    - installed TWRP 3.4.0.0 (released 24-06-2020) -> TWRP
    - installed Radio 6.27 from Beykerykt -> AndroidFileHost
    - installed LineagOS 17.1 build 24-06-2020 -> LineageOS
    - installed OpenGapps build 24-06-2020 (Full) -> OpenGApps

    Everything is running smooth and fast.

    My main camera is OpenCamera which can access the second back camera. I just don't use that camera very often.
    I've been using the Google Camera port (7.3) by Urnyx (Urnyx05) occasionally for the extra features.

    apparently some were having success doing a dirty flash. And I really believe it can be done, however, I myself overlooked some things, so ended up having to do a clean install myself...

    Maybe you are on the wrong radio check out witch radio for the rom you drive you need my idea is install 17.1 flash the radio i have post out few posts before and check up if network is available and give me a feedback here otherwise you have to hex edit a file for emei restore;)

    Thanks Aljoscha81(spasibo). Just I saw you post. I spend some day to understand what I have done. So... I have formatted (deleted, wiped or corrupted) efs partition with TWRp , and my cellphone had remained without IMEI (SIM1, SIM2 and MEID). I tried several things, but not success. Solution is there : https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=885224.

    Simply. My qsn file was damaged. I tried several tools and I arrived to write IMEI (SIM1 and SIM2) with FactoryTool_Wingtech_v1.0.2 (tool). Pay attention folks. You need a tool that can write Qualcomm devices. Once that IMEI (SIM1 or SIM2) is written, you should delete to rewrite. But if IMEI for both sims are corrupted I think that you need to made them blank with adb. ( I cannot remember exactly the way I solved my problem), but I remember that I wrote them blank with adb before witting new IMEI ( i believe that follow commands I used. Make a search in internet)
    ++++++++++++++
    with adb
    su
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/sdf1
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/sdf2
    dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/sdf3
    +++++++++++++++
    My biggest problem was that I was not able to open ports in my Nubia or to open adb shell (su was missing). One time that I arrived to have open ports I wrote my IMEI ( you can writte also by WriteDualIMEI_W_G_eMMC (has some videos in internet and I accidentally had COM4 open).

    As Aljosha said, the only way for me was to hex edit my qcn file (but mine was corrupted or different from what folk can download here :
    https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=885224&view=findpost&p=68778308

    I opened my qcn file with:
    QCNView part of QPST

    but my values have been not listed as follow :
    ++++++++++++++++++
    ESN: NV item: 0 [NV_ESN_I], index 0
    IMEI 1: NV item: 550 [NV_UE_IMEI_I], index 0
    MEID: NV item: 1943 [NV_MEID_I], index 0
    ESN: NV item: 5597 [NV_ESN_ME_I], index 0
    MEID: NV item: 5598 [NV_MEID_ME_I], index 0
    IMEI 2: NV item (SIM 1): 550 [NV_UE_IMEI_I], index 0

    (seems position of IMEI 1 is missing over there ) as explained here:
    https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=885224&view=findpost&p=80353569

    For folks have qsn file damaged have a look here : https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=885224&view=findpost&p=68778308 (the same link as I wrote above)

    Read carefully article ( also see this similar video)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY5hsH3--VE
    or
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPouF3bzoDI (these second one I just found).

    So. Download the qcn file from links above and produce one for your selves ( use IMEI generator https://dyrk.org/tools/imei/ to produce random IMEI for yourself if you have not your originals)

    Now Shortly my adventure.

    IMEI and MEID damaged.
    1- I wrotte blank my IMEI's (with adb)
    2- I wrote accidentally my IMEI by a software mentioned above (but was not the right way).

    The wright way. as follow :
    If you have damaged your Nubia ZTE 17 ( qcn file and you have no original box IMEI,SN, MEID and etc.)
    You will need IMEI , MEID or SN ( .... make a search in internet and with some difficulties maybe you will find that some one has accidentally has published it's box - numbers ). You can generate your IMEI online but I am not very sure for MEID ( I grabbed MEID form one site that has an article for Nubia ZTE 17 - Unboxing).

    So. You have now. 2 IMEI's for your SIM Cards and a MEID Number.

    - I flashed my Nubia ZTE 17 (is is explained here: https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=885224&view=findpost&p=80353569) . use google transalator if you cannot understand russian. Use Miflash
    and Nubia ZTE 17 Firmware. (as I did today). Use this ROOM just to write your qcn file as explained follow.
    Prepare your qcn file and write it to Nubia ZTE 17 by QPST Utility that you can find in internet ( or in the above mentioned site).
    My Nubia recognized my Network ( with 2 IMEI installed accidentally and with MEID that I found in Internet). I think that if IMEI exists qcn file does not replaced them (I prepared a qcn file with 2 fresh IMEI and MEID but did not replaced the IMEI's)

    After that, simply install TWRP and install LineageOS. In this moment I am using Linux to install TWRP and will continue to install .

    I can publish my original qcn file (but seems that MEID section is deleted also Serial section ) and i double in size than what I downloaded from 4pda (as explained above).

    That's all story.

    I am not very sure what is Radio file prepared by Aljosha , but I will have a look.

    Thanks Aljosha81 for your help. I saw your post just some moments that I resolved my problem. Anyway. Thanks.

    Hope this helps.
