[ROM][OFFICIAL] LineageOS 18.1 weeklies for Xiaomi Poco F1

[penticton8]

Latest update (2022-01-22) installed without issues via OTA. Looks good so far. Security string updated to Jan 05, 2022

Same here.

Latest update is working fine for me too.
It's worth noting the kernel has been updated to version 4.9.297!

Strange, it's working as it should here for me. Have you tried resetting the auto brightness user data by clearing the app data of "Device Health Services"? Just guessing, but maybe it helps.

"Device Health Services" doesn't even exist on LineageOS. Are you joking now or what?

I have Gapps installed. Sorry, I never actually used "pure" lineage os. Did not mean to "joke" or offend anyone...

Note regarding the auto brightness: Same as others reported, it's much better now, but the "bug" as far i understand is still there. The slider on the brightness bar still moves (after unlocks) without me touching it, but now it keeps moving back to 50% instead of moving to 0%.

Bug is still there, but behaves a little better. It reappears when device sleeps for some time or when restarting the device.
There is also a fingerprint bug since A11. Sometimes device does not recognize your fingerprint. It happens to me 20-30% of times. I always do clean flash and never bloat my device with gapps.
I will try to install stock gapps package this time (maybe it is the reason many people are not having this issue).
@sponk0 Can you tell me what gapps package you use?

Hi, this custom rom is amazing, i have been using it for a while, but today i wanted to try the facial unlock and i cant find how to activate it, is not available in this rom?

 

[sponk0]

@sponk0 Can you tell me what gapps package you use?

I use MindTheGapps 11.0.0 arm64. If I remember correctly this version was recommended by the developer when I first installed LineageOS 18.1 in March 2021.

Note: I have never experienced any issues with the fingerprint sensor. But there might also be different versions with different hardware on the market, which could explain that some people have issues and some don't, I don't know...

Face unlock is not supported by this ROM (I think due to legal/IP issues), and it seems unlikely that it will be supported in the future.

all seems fine for me except I cannot install USB audio player as the play store seems to think my F1 is pixel 6 - and the pixel 6 has a USB bug apparently so the USB audio player has pulled the app

Any ideas

I've recently noticed some strange touchscreen problems. It seems it sometimes stop working for miliseconds and then it returns. Periodically. It effects as if I pull finger up for a short while and than put it down again (often a few times in a while). "Thanks to that" I'm obtaining 2 or 3 the same digits when I put my PIN number in a place, where it should be only one digit. Or when I scroll a web page, it effects in "auto click" on some random places (a links many times), which is very annoying behaviour.

I've replaced my broken LCD display not a long time ago. But I've updated LineageOS almost simultaneously. So I'm not sure where is the fault, although I suspect the LCD display.

Anyone experienced similar effects? And doesn't replaced LCD screen like me, of course?
Please, help...

Thank you for your reply!
Interesting... But not in my case, at least for now.

So, I suppose my problem is stricte hardware problem. Thanks!

Is there a way to access Android/Data on the external SD card?
Since Android 11 it is no longer possible due to scoped storage

I use total commander from playstore to access that folder

Wow, thank you, with Total Commander it works perfectly. I had tried several file managers for the last few months without success.

Hi there,

I've noticed that Private DNS (DNS over TLS) no longer works over mobile data or Wi-Fi.
Always used: dns.digitale-gesellschaft.ch or dot.ffmuc.net .

Can anyone test that?

LineageOS 2022-01-29 works without problems, but no big changelog (only "support for clock auto hide" which disables the clock if launcher is visible)

Hello together, some LineageOS 18.1 roms seem to have a "use sim" switch. The Poco F1 does not have this. Would it be technically possible to get this switch?

Would this be to just turn off one sim card? Interesting feature.
