[ROM][Q] Unofficial, optimized LineageOS 18.1 (Jan. 6th) & LineageOS 17.1 (Jan. 12th)

[Tomoms]

If you want me to beta test for you I volunteer my services!

You'll hear from me soon via PM

Sorry for my English!!

Linageos 18.1 vs Linageos 17.1
What's new??

First of all, 18.1 is based on Android 11 while 17.1 is based on Android 10. Then, my 17.1 has several optimizations, tweaks and improvements that are not present on my 18.1, but I'll gradually add them over the next months.

Hello, I've released a new 17.1 build. This one brings some kernel fixes & improvements and the full implementation of January's security patches. In fact, shortly after I built the previous build (20210108), two more related commits appeared on Lineage's Gerrit. So this new build brings the full set of security patches. The updater can be downloaded manually right now, but it won't appear in the OTA updater before tomorrow morning because I forgot to push it there.

Not having found that latest 17.1 build on AFH made me a bit uneasy (I usually keep that file listing page open, not the thread opener). Is there a special reason to move to SF, and will 18.1 also be moved?

Yes, there is a very specific reason, which is that with all due respect for giving us a free service, AFH sucks big time. It's soooo unstable and quirky! And the direct links to files change every few hours/days, breaking the OTA updater regularly. I'll soon move 18.1 on SourceForge as well.

What version baseband and modem are you guys using?

 

[Tomoms]

I have just realized I've never pushed the latest build to the OTA updater. Just did it now. Well, better late than never

What version baseband and modem are you guys using?

The ones present in the last CyanogenOS 13 build.

Hi @Tomoms, I flashed your latest 17.1 rom and seemed to have lost root. I tried re-installing latest Magisk 21.3 with the manager and get the following error. Is this ROM related? Thanks for your input.
Nevermind, I should of flashed *. zip with twrp and not used the "select and patch a file" option in Magisk Manager.
