[ROM][OFFICIAL][PAYTON][NIGHTLIES]Lineage OS 17.1

[wkn000]

Anyway to stop this rom from installing LineageOS recovery? Its bad and I like my TWRP.

Personally, i only boot TWRP temporary with "fastboot boot twrp-3.5.1_9-0-payton.img" when "needed", what is really rarely. Installed is just Lineage recovery by OTA updates.

I'm really bummed that Lineage OS 16 stopped receiving security patch updates at the very least. I like Pie and don't want to change it. : (

Yes, me too. But the worst point is that I cannot make an OTA update to the latest Lineage OS 16 without wiping /data and no need to have new GApps. And I would like to uodate ti the latest 16 one as possibke as of my camera app stucks from time to time.

Any unofficial lineage OS 16 build?

Does this ROM support wifi tethering if yes please reply. And I mean wifi tethering that is you can use wifi and hotspot at the same time.

IIRC access to other wifi networks (from a device that is presently hosting a Wi-Fi hotspot) and the provision of the hotspot are mutually exclusive. The hotspot host would be providing a Wi-Fi network to itself and to guest devices which can work as a network apart from the internet, but connection to the internet would be through mobile data on the hotspot host or through non-related network connections on the client devices. I've never heard of a device which could connect to a Wi-Fi network while hosting WiFi hotspot. If there is a way to do that I'd be interested to learn it.

My realme GT master edition has the ability to share the internet which is connected via wifi to device(s) connected via hotspot. I have seen some windows laptops having this feature. Theoretically I believe it is due to support of MIMO

Ahhh, got it. My experience with this device and with lineage and stock moto ROMs in general is with simple hotspot ... which may or may not speak to the limitations of this ROM regarding your request. Thanks for the explanation. From curiosity I'll stay tuned in case someone shares a way to do what you are asking.

It's called wifi tethering. Presently most devices working on Android 10 have this feature. You can also check OnePlus ,Samsung devices which have this feature.

"It's called WiFi tethering"?

You seem to be conflating basic Wi-Fi tethering with an extended feature of Wi-Fi tethering while making an inaccurate claim that most Android 10 devices use that feature. You might have also explained why we have different perceptions about it but before getting to that let's address those inaccurate statements before they get ingrained into readers minds.

Tethering does not necessarily include this ability. It might include it, but the definition of tethering is merely ... to tether. In our Android world that typically means a connection via Wi-Fi, USB, or Bluetooth but has also been used in the IT industry for a long time to indicate other types of connection. The ability to use the a Wi-Fi connection to the internet on the same device that hosts the Wi-Fi hotspot seems to be an extra feature that has been added to the basic function that we call tethering.

It is not the case that most devices, or even most Android 10 devices have this. None of the 15 or 20 devices I've used personally have had that feature including three devices currently on my desk which all ran Android 10.

If I'm wrong about the definition of tethering I hope someone will correct it but to the point of your observation, I use Motorola devices which may not have this feature. I'll do some reading about the one plus and Samsung devices that do this. Thanks for the tip. Do you, or does anyone know the name, the specific industry term, which is used to refer to this extended feature of Wi-Fi tethering?

I'm personally confused by what this person has posted also.


I have a OnePlus N100 in my hand right now and under developer options, I have something named "Enable Wi-Fi Coverage Extend Feature". Under that, it says "Enable extended Wi-Fi coverage using Hotspot.

I have no idea either how it works or what it does. All I get is an error message if I try to turn on Hotspot with WI-Fi already on. See the pics below.

If you can find an explanation of how this works let me know and I'll test it on my N100.

Thanks for clarifying. That's probably the feature they are referring to and perhaps their experience has been with devices that have that feature so it seemed like the default. A quick bit of web searching finds that most articles about this are in one plus forums. There is also an inaccurate article fairly high in the search results which describes the exact feature you highlight in your picture (thank you!) as if it is a commonly available "hidden" setting in most ROMs even though it is not. It seems unlikely that this feature could be implemented or would be implemented in LOS for this device but if anyone considers doing so then @hpgramani's post further up this page might be informative.

I also found many of the same forum posts as you did discussing this feature and the one thing that stood out to me about all of them was even the people saying they understood how it worked couldn't seem to explain it in much detail.

I think I even saw one post quoting an email from OnePlus that sounded like their tech support had no idea how it worked either.

This thread is specifically for the Moto X4 (Payton). You have a better chance a finding applicable information and help in a thread that is about your device.

I believe they are taken down for security reasons, but I don't have the details. You can try here to find them:
