LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 9 (Pie), 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. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Instructions :
  • Download the latest build and gapps
  • Boot to recovery
  • Flash the latest build
  • Boot to recovery again
  • Flash gapps
  • Reboot
Downloads :
Reporting Bugs
  • DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
  • Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
  • If it is a random reboot, grab /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops and /sys/fs/pstore/dmesg-ramoops-0. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
  • If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

How to flash latest firmware

[ protip: 20191010+ builds require 50.2 FW (at least bluetooth, dsp, modem from it) If you're still running 50.1 you can flash this package in TWRP: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261716572 unless you're fine with having partially broken audio and broken Egistec fingerprint sensor ;3 ]

However if you want to flash whole firmware package onto both slots, you can follow the guide below:

1. Download latest firmware with XperiFirm.
NOTE: When using mono XperiFirm will fail to unpack the firmware, you can do it manually using following commands:
Code:
for f in FILE_*; do unzip $f; done
unzip boot.zip -d boot
2. Go to the directory where the firmware got downloaded to and remove following files:
- boot_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- boot_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- persist_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- persist_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- system_other_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- system_other_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- system_other_X-FLASH-ALL-9B8D_0x00.hash
- system_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- system_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- system_X-FLASH-ALL-9B8D_0x00.hash
- userdata_X-FLASH-CUST-18AE.sin
- vendor_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE_0x00.hash
- vendor_X-FLASH-ALL-18AE.sin
- vendor_X-FLASH-ALL-9B8D_0x00.hash
3. Turn off your phone, hold vol dn and plug in the USB cable, the screen should be off and green LED lit.
4. Run Newflasher, it'll flash entire FW to your current slot then unplug the USB cable and power on your phone.
5. Turn off your phone, hold vol up and plug in the USB cable, the screen should be off and blue LED lit.
6. Enter this command: `fastboot getvar current-slot`, it should return something like this:
current-slot: _b
Finished. Total time: 0.001s
7. Now switch to the opposite slot by entering command: `fastboot set_active a` if the current slot is `_b` or `fastboot set_active b` if its `_a`, you should see this:
Setting current slot to 'a'...
OKAY [ 0.012s]
Finished. Total time: 0.014s
or
Setting current slot to 'b'...
OKAY [ 0.012s]
Finished. Total time: 0.014s
8. Unplug usb cable and repeat steps: 3, 4
9. Profit?

Unable to boot?

hello, thanks for this build. I have flashed the latest build in TWRP but for some reason keep getting thrown back into TWRP after flashing everything and rebooting. I'm not entirely sure why this is occurring.

Stop flashing twrp lol.

I did not flash TWRP at first, but it still threw me into the default Lineage/Android recovery. Flashing TWRP or not doesn't make a difference for me.

Edit: I should mention the recovery screen I get without flashing TWRP says that my data is corrupt and I should try factory resetting or try booting again. Doing a factory reset option brings it to the same screen again.

Try fastboot -w reboot.

Do you publish changelog for new versions somewhere? Would be nice to know the changes.

Hi
Everything is working on latest build what i probed,
only the video playback is lagging
the smaller resolution is ok, but the HD and full HD playing is lagging with youtube app, and also in browser.

i cant reproduce that, on youtube and twitch with 1080p 60fps everything is smooth, no lags and no glitches

    @Marteng69 here is what i did -> i was stucked on pie + flickering screen (model h3113):

    1. i used emma (https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/flash-tool), just install and run it, boot your phone in flash mode (vol down + usb connect = green light). then the app will recognize your phone (assuming you have drivers installed) and give you phone info. on the right side download and flash offered firmware (at the moment there is the uk oreo one, download it and you'll have it in case it's replaced with pie). flash the complete firmware (the "Software Update Content Erase" image) and reboot after flashing completed

    2. boot the phone, let it boot up for a few minutes then turn it off with holding power + vol up for a few secs (let it vibrate 3 times to make sure it's off)

    3. then boot it in fastboot mode (vol up + usb connect = blue light) and then via cmd run "fastboot boot 1d66175c6ce8e04865d041cbcac8ba3013a02b1e.img" (please check your exact .img name)

    4. that's it, the phone should boot (normal looking) twrp and then reboot your phone and... say thanks to @LuK1337 ;)

    Hello Luk,

    are you going to develop LineageOS 17 for this Device?

    Until 50.2.* kernel source is out I'm not planning to do anything.

    btw see https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Kernel/50-2-A-0-400-kernel-source/td-p/1390917 ^^
    6
    Yes, 2.4 works fine. I'm 100% sure that 5GHz used to work tho, but nevermind. At least now I have hotspot working lol

    ...yeah I booted some old ass kernel HEAD and it works there. Looks like i'm going to have fun time finding the change that broke it...

    EDIT: Should be working again in next builds ^.^
