If anyone has upgraded from Los 16.0 to 17.1 official can you please give me a complete ADB logcat from boot?

Thanks

upgraded from 16 to 17.1 Issues spotted:
1. bootloop when updating the nightly build after installing magisk, fixed by disbaling the force /data/ encryption. Which now means i cannot update nightly builds manually.. should patch disable force encryption every time the rom is updated... thinnking of putting that in addon.d if it's possible
2. "Ok google" is not working. Can't enable that in settings
3. Bluetooth audio is strange.. i have 70% for not playing the song, but if the song starts it works just great. Also sometimes headphones do not play sound
4. cts profile thing... fixed by magisk core + magisk hide

Hello @infrag:
Now that the ROM, thanks to your work, is now official, you could remove the title of this forum from "unofficial".
It's a suggestion

He might continue unofficial builds with other blobs or experiments.

Does lineageos 17 include high bitrate SBC patch? I read it is better than aptx and comparable to aptx hd
 
I suggest not to follow the official recommended adb-sideload method as described here:
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/dipper/upgrade
.. I. just copied both zips (17.1 / GApps for Android 10) to sdcard the folder where the cfg from LOS 16 installation was still located. Then I booted to TWRP and only installed both files together without any patition wipe or cache clearing over the existing installation.
It worked fine for me and my cfg-file worked too.

To confirm: You came from LOS 16 and did not install any new Firmware? Everything is working fine? Device encryption is used? Is Magisk present and if so, did you uninstall / reinstall or just flash 17.1 like a normal update with Magisk present and running its script after the LOS update?

    LineageOS 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.

    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. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

    Base source code is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to the project, please visit our Gerrit Code Review.

    GPL compliance:

    so the newest build 04/11/2019 uses Xiaomi Q blobs.
    Therefore it has some bugs:
    I havent got bluetooth audio working yet. Bluetooth calls seem to work fine though.
    Sound: Speaker works if you make a phone call first and switch to speaker during the call. After that everything else starts working.
    Edit: fixed. - GPS all satellites should show up now.
    Android Auto fixes probably havent been added yet to lineage but when anything shows up I'll add it.

    The reason this build took so long to be released is that Q radio blobs kept causing a reboot when data was used and switched to low power mode. I believe I have fixed this.

    Edit: Uploaded the correct build now. Also added in gps fix

    Also fyi I'd hoped to have anther build up by now but since lineage has changed to 17.1 branches instead of 17.0 my build system is a bit of a mess. Waiting for all the repos to be updated to 17.1 before releasing anything. Hopefully it wont be too long...

    18/12/2019 finally a working q build with q blobs and working audio.
    havent tested it a lot so any bugs let me know. There will be a v2 of the audio fix/change. This fix was just to make it work. :)

    new build in OP.
    For android auto users unless I say otherwise I have not fixed your problem yet. :|
