I tried upgrading too, yesterday, and I ran into the GApps no-space problem as well. Nano and pico just wouldn't install. MindTheGapps installed, but left the device in an unusable state with non-stop crashing Pixel setup. I'll try again with the smaller 5/10 version of GApps pico.
The 5/10 version witout Google TTS worked for me and I was able to start setting up apps and settings again.

There seems to be a problem with the 5GHz WiFi band in the 5/7 build of LineageOS 15.1, though. I'm only seeing the 2.4GHz band of my router and also WiFi Analyzer is not showing any active networks (which are definitely there). Seeing that this has already been discussed before, I'm looking forward to installing the next regular update.

I've a problem with dialer (I got a black screen after phone call starts)

my installation:
1. lineage-15.1-20180507-nightly-mako-signed.zip
2. pico gapps (excluding GoogleTTS)
rebootet
Dialer is working OK

then I installed some apps
and flashed addonsu-15.1-arm-signed.zip

after some tests I recognized the dialer bug.

Update to LOS 15.1 5/10 didn't fix the problem;

any help welcome!!!

Maybe it's just my phone, but it suffers unexpected restarts, as it only takes a few minutes in applications such as instagram, twitter, etc.
When choosing the system colors, they are only reflected in the configuration and in the status bar, in the menu follow the default color in addition to other sections. (I'm a little picky)
I couldn't change the user profile image from the configuration, error when loading any image. I could do it from the contacts application, in the section of my information.
There is no option to change the position of the clock in the status bar and also to change the shape of the battery icon?
No options for the lock/unlock button? For example, add the button to make screenshots.

Otherwise the performance is excellent, a great job! Congratulations!!

Installed lineage-15.1-20180507-nightly -- success
Followed up with lineage-15.1-20180514-nightly -- success

GApps pico initially would not install due to lack of space.
GApps installed OK after I wiped Dalvik/ART cache, system, data, and cache.

addonsu for root installed OK

I was hiding my Wi-Fi SSID for security as we live in an apartment complex.

PROBLEM: Wi-Fi always drops on my home network unless I show the SSID.

I tried this without success:
Disable wifi and Bluetooth scanning in
Settings - > Security & Privacy - > Privacy - > Location - > Scanning
UNCHECK Wi-Fi & Bluetooth scanning

PROBLEM: Battery drain is high compared to the lineage-14.1-20180427-nightly.

I also noted as did CAOSandres
"There is no option to change the position of the clock in the status bar and also to change the shape of the battery icon?"
Otherwise seems to be working just fine. Thanks to the dev team.

5 GHz WIFI band now shows up with 5/14 build, but is unstable. My phone connects to 5 GHz band for a few seconds, then drops the connection and falls back to the 2.4 GHz band. A minute or so later, it reconnects to the 5 GHz band, only to start over with disconnecting. I can only reliably stay connected by choosing the 2.4 GHz band. My SSIDs are different (same base name, 5 GHz has a "5" attached to the name).

Other than that, the build runs quite fine so far. I've not experienced unexpected failures, app crashes or spontaneous restarts while installing my usual set of apps. I need to spend some more time configuring them all and then put the device to standard usage patterns. Not sure about battery drain so far due to heavy WIFI use and constantly powered-on display.

I like how LineageOS looks even more like vanilla Android now.

Try using channel other than 36 if you have unstable 5 ghz connection, for exmple, channel 149, seems to work fine, not sure why it's unstable on 36.

Hmm, do you have LTE modded radio installed? It's not the first time i see report of random reboots. But i don't have any, most people here also don't seems to have any. Could be damaged battery though.

Excuse the ignorance, how do I check that setting?

I knew that this option exists but I have not installed any modem, I had previously installed another rom with 7.1.1 no Lineage and had activated LTE for testing, this configuration is activated?

My Baseband version:
M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1701.07
Can you get an output of /proc/last_kmsg next time you get a reboot?

You'll need a PC for it though, and adb installed and adb debugging enabled in developer settings, then just:

Code:
adb shell cat /proc/last_kmsg
If there is no /proc/last_kmsg then it likely means that it was a power failure, most likey damaged battery.

It may be due to the age of the phone.
I'm going to try and find out whether or not a battery replacement is needed.

Could a calibration work?

My neighbor's wifi uses channel 36, mine is on the other end of the range, around 148 (can't remember the exact channel right now). Anyway, I yesterday noticed that the 2.4 GHz band is also a bit unstable, something which is not very evident. While downloading larger navigation maps, the connection broke off several times and a notification for signing into the mobile network appeared repeatedly (the SIM in that phone currently has no mobile data). Previously (with LOS 14.1), a single dismissal of the message was sufficient while staying in range of the wifi.
