If you are experiencing bootloops, instability of OS or even infinite boot, please flash older releases of Gapps like 1003, 1006 or even September builds.

For me

Awesome, installing now!

I seem to bootloop installing gapps.... arm 9.0 pico...

Getting past the bluetooth errors - keeps stopping seems impossible. I can't seem to force stop or anything to prevent the error from popping up over and over.

Try to do adb shell pm disable com.android.bluetooth if you don't have magisk installed

I've been running LOS 16 builds from source for the past week with great success. If you are aware of the issues in the second post and those do not affect your usage, I would say to try this out. I've also been using Resurrection Remix from source successfully (as Kaijones knows), but we should hold off on posting a build of that until the vendor and kernel issues are resolved.

Also @Kaijones23 You can install Magisk initially, you just need to do adb shell, su, and then press Grant on the device. That's how I've been doing it. I'm pretty busy tonight but tomorrow night I'll have a go at bluetooth from source and I'll try out some of the Onn blobs too.

Wow, looks super good, did anyone try Magisk 20.0 zip? Will it work?

Also wanted to know, can i update magisk and flash modules directly from system and not from TWRP? Is system aware of exploit like TWRP is?

Magisk modules can be installed by magisk manager but the magisk update must be updated through TWRP to avoid bootloops because boot image will be patched by amonet

Ok, there's a problem, flashing gapps causes bootloop, on first boot it takes much longer to boot up, and then reboots to recovery, seen many posts about that, and it can be a problem of October gapps, will try something else now

Ok, should I flash gapps and then copy log from TWRP? Also should I include kernel logs? Sorry for being a noob here

Try to flash gapps and if you have Windows computer try to do adb logcat > logcat.txt but if you don't have it installed use this. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE "logcat": "/sbin/libcutils.so" is 64-bit instead of 32 bit
linker: CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE "logcat": "/sbin/libcutils.so" is 64-bit instead of 32 bit
