Hi all,

I have a SM Galaxy S7 edge with LOS 17.1 (even from Ivan) here.
Which is the easiest way to update to LOS 18.1 ... without loosing data(!)?

I would do like so:
- download LOS 18.1 (from here) and gapps to phone
- boot into TWRP (3.5.2_9-0 in my case)
- install LOS 18.1 and gapps (NikGapps-basic-arm64-11 in my case)
- wipe Cache/Dalvik
- reboot
Will this work?

Can I update from 17.1 to 18.1 without any problem?

  3. downloaded lastest openGAAPS
  4. rebooted into TWRP
  5. Updated TWRP to latest version
  6. rebooted into new TWRP
  7. installed 18.1
  8. installed openGAAPS
  9. reboot into system
  10. system booted! ;) :D

se qualcuno non usa la fotocamera durante una videochiamata, usa questa app "correzione errori fotocamera" che funziona per me. per lo sviluppatore @Ivan_Meler quando uso questa app corregge il file scritto in basso nella foto. forse è questo il problema

La nuova build con l'aggiornamento di sicurezza di dicembre è disponibile, ecco un breve changelog
- Unito dicembre 2021. Aggiornamento di sicurezza
- Rimosso liboemcrypto che interrompeva la riproduzione in alcune app che utilizzano drm
- Sincronizzato con la sorgente LOS
Scusa per un po' di ritardo in questo, ho passato un po' più di tempo su Android 12 per rendere le cose il più stabili possibile lì, quindi l'aggiornamento per 11 è un po' più tardi del solito
Ma eccoli finalmente, state al sicuro e godetevi le vacanze

Sadly had to uninstall given call echo and Gcam crashing issues. But appreciate the other features of the build!

Really unfortunate about the Lineage issues with the echo.

Also regarding camera that stops wroking after prolongued use,
I've figured out whats causing it and im investigating a fix for it but due to weird nature of bug.

Once again big thanks to everyone who supported this project and helped cover the build server cost and got me a coffee.
Enjoy new build and stay safe in 2022

    Due to requests from some users I added signature spoofing support to the rom which allows usage of MicroG
    you can simply install MinMicroG and grant it needed permissions for signature spoofing to make it work as intended

    Based On Android 11/R
