Sorry that I'm posted to your question.

I tried to reproduce the the WiFi connection problem the last few days with my old backups from LOS 17 / 18 and 19.
It was not possible for me to run in the problem..

I recommended anyone who has WiFi problems, go back to the Stock Software
and than clean reinstall the LOS Version..
I'm 100% sure that is an router settings or connection problem.

Doesn't the t320 device or Lineage OS support the 80 mhz frequency band? It's not an exact fact, but after changing the Wi-Fi frequency band to 20/40mhz, it seems that the disconnection was noticeably reduced. I don't know if it will be helpful, but I'm sharing it for similar people who suffer from Wi-Fi disconnection.

Imho you're mixing up frequency with channel width.
The frequency band is either 2,4 or 5 GHz.
On 2,4Ghz the channel width is 20 and 40 MHz.
On 5GHz it's 20, 40, 80 160MHz.
Both bands are working for my T325.
BUT as recommended before my Fritzbox has separate SSIDs.
In my router there's no option to set the channel width.
Btw I didn't encounter Wifi probs.

you are right. There was a mistake in the use of terminology.

Does anyone know of a way to check the update patch content?

Superb piece of work by @phoval ! Super grateful for your time and effort in maintaining/updating the OS for T320/T325 users.

Used Lineage20.0 (20230401, BitGapps, Magisk) for 2 months daily on my T325 personal phone+banking apps with nil balances. Absolutely no lag/glitches. Noted improvement over 18.1. Just clean installed 20230527 today.

Here's a comparison with Lineage18.1:

• camera orientation in apps fixed in 20
• eTar calender sync fixed in 20, did not sync in 18.1 need to download google calender to sync
• keyboard+numbers in 20 vs keyboard only in 18.1
• faster wifi speedtest 130+ in 20 vs 80+in 18.1
• file manager heading collapse fixed in 20
• restart "May 9" date bug fixed in 20
• better battery charging auto-stop ~99% in 20
• Similar 12h overnight battery drain, -3% for 20 vs -2% for 18.1

Minor Points:

• file upload in yahoo mail browser / app browser not allowed (Android 13 restriction? any workaround for multiple account? one account on app, the other account access via browser but unable to upload doc)
• pull down menu buttons unresponsive at times (wifi button etc, tapped to switch off but wifi button remains lit, wifi did switch off)

If you can't format your external storage as internal one you're lucky! If you had succeeded, you would certainly have had problems. I remember of many reports about problems (lost data, disappearing shortcuts etc.) of users who tried also to enhance their internal storage.

You should check if you can transfer data, especially large files like photos, music, video files to the external storage. To reiterate and to be clear: I've not seen a single report of a successful format as internal storage for various devices in the last few years.

I previously had colt OS on the tablet running Android 10 and I was able to use the external storage as internal storage which enabled me to install all the apps that I wanted and more, but now 16GB may not be enough and trying to keep my apps to a minimum, it wasn't a smooth ride with Colt OS, I had my issues to deal with and it seems that every ROM will have its own set of issues, so far with this one, this is my only issue and not sure if it was entirely removed from newer Android builds as most devices come with internal storage only these days, or the functionality is still there but not available through this build.

Google Chrome is not working just going blank. It's just me? Any one else with the same issue? Everything else working good. Thanks!

Try using something like TWRP or MiXplorer to delete /data/data/com.android.chrome/app_chrome/Local State. This only seems to consistently get one boot though. I haven't found a consistent way to continue getting boots other than maybe deleting more and not using sync and setting theme to light or dark (not auto).
Edit: could also try updating the driver with the adreno dev module or replacing the files yourself.

I'll see to it. Thanks.
