On the off-chance that anyone actually tried this...
I couldn't really get the Snapchat login to work, because of Root/Safetynet issues or whatever.
I enabled the Safetynet module from one of the previous pages and masked Magisk, but it didn't solve the issue.
However, I logged into Snapchat on my Xperia Z5 (also on LineageOS and rooted) and used Titanium Backup to back Snapchat up and then imported that backup on my Galaxy S2 and was logged in and the app basically works.
BUT
The camera doesn't work in Snapchat. Which is kinda crucial.
Does anyone know if this is fixable?

Downloads - TWRP 3.6.1
To install TWRP 3.6.1 you need to enlarge your recovery-partition.

I recommend to use the "full clean flash"-instructions described above which comes with TWRP 3.6.1.
Download TWRP 3.6.1_9.0 here:
twrp-3.6.1_9.0-i9100.img
If you need Toybox instead of Busybox, you can download the toybox-version here:

How to flash .img-file:
In TWRP => Install => Install Image => Choose your img-file => Choose Recovery => Flash

I put the assembly without root on s2 but there were a few questions
1) when the phone is turned on, a yellow exclamation mark appears. How to remove it?
2) I changed the bootloader to Samsung as indicated in other posts, but for some reason the path turned out to be / product / media / bootanimation.zip And where then to put the sound file poweron.wav?
3) I didn’t find an application for listening to radio without the Internet ... and those that are on the Internet or are not installed or are asked to give the Internet ... Is there a working standard from Samsung? Where can I get a work package when you connect headphones to a 3.5 plug?
if there are answers somewhere, sorry, maybe I missed it, I didn’t find it
thx

Good afternoon, I have installed this rom on my samsung s2 model i9100. At the moment I have encountered some problems: The mobile sometimes restarts, but it is something manageable. The problem that affects me the most is that I can't enter my gmail accounts. The add accounts menu closes and I can't enter them. I have only been able to add my whatsapp account. I need my gmail contacts. Can you give me a solution? All the best.
First thanks a lot for the amazing work which will allow recycling some old Samsung SII !
I got recently a i9100 to play with. I first did a factory reset on the stock ROM, on Android 4.1.2
And trying to flash to Android 12.1
this is one of the key msg in the whole flashing procedure, but likely still need a bit more details for newbies.
I used Odin to flash my phone as stated in the first page, so as steps 1 and 2.
And ended as well in the 'download mode'.
I did it twice, same story.
Then, I followed your step, with the zip file in microSD.
5. I used the key combination home+volUp+start which started TWRP, I chose the 'install zip' stuff.
I got a few errors there: the partitions could not be mounted properly:
6. I removed the battery, started again in TWRP, did the wipe per default. What is meant here with 'full' wipe?
7. During the reboot, the LineAgeOS logo appeared again, and then it switched to a "Encryption unsuccessful" screen, with a button "Erase all data" I can NOT press as if the touchscreen will be inactive.
Thus, I just restarted the phone. But back on this "Encryption unsuccessful" page.
The phone is still recognized from my PC, but using adb
> adb devices
List of devices attached
0019ab5e42017e unauthorized
while it says 'recovery' when started in TWRP. And used to be the correct 'device' before I started the whole process.
What should I do now to fix the flash?
EDIT: looking a bit further in the TWRP options, no wonder that I got the above errors: my 'data' partition is not setup properly, set to size 0 MB.
I however can't resize or repair it.
But could format it and is now 12591 MB as expected from the pit file
The 'Cache' partition is 74MB, as from the pit file
The 'System' partition is 2015 MB, I suppose it corresponds to the FACTORYFS
'Preload is 7 MB, so for the UMS or HIDDEN partition.
'Internal storage' is invalid
So for the point 5, the 'format data' is the key.
Now my i9100 is now setup with LineAgeOS
However, it is slow...
8. I could then install the BiTGApps-arm-12.1.0-v2.3-CORE.zip via the 'install zip' of TWRP
Edit2: specially after the BitGApps install, the smartphone is so sluggish that it is barely usable.
As already mentioned by one comment, the "battery manager" is slowing down the whole, so the first step is to disable the battery manager. And disable the gestures navigation, also slower than the buttons.
Nevertheless, the GooglePlay does not work properly: it keeps saying 'you are offline' while the browser is working fine. I am only on Wifi, tried both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.

There is nothing wrong with the GooglePlay. You're supposed to install BiTGApps before first boot, otherwise expect unusual issues.
You can stay updated with BiTGApps XDA Thread.
yes, that a good point.
but it seems the google services are just making the phone too slow.
I just want the Google Play Store, the other services are less interesting to me.
I eventually re flashed the phone with the ROM for June 2022, without BitGApps, but using the ApkPure app instead of GooglePlay to install further apps. https://apkpure.com is working ok, but the app is blown by the ad...
The phone is still a bit slow for an comfortable use.
I wonder if any older version of LineAgeOS would bring a better performance/compatibility compromise. Any recommendation? Android 7 / LOS 14.1 is the last 'official' build, but Android 9 could be useful, since we see the first app that refuse to run on Android 8...
back to the general feedback: most sensors do NOT report any value.
And more problematic, the GPS is still not working on my S2. It was said to be fixed with the June 2022 build, but don't get any GPS Data so far.
edit: GPS IS working, it just needs a few minutes outside for the first GPS fix. I forgot the GPS at that time were so much slower than more recent phones which can pick up the GPS signal inside or close to a window.
I tried the GPS Status and PhoneTester apps, the later gives plenty of info about the phone and the sensors.

You can use alternative like F-droid. You can switch to microG instead of Google Apps stuff.

thanks, just installed the Aurora client. https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.aurora.store/
I uninstalled Apkpure which was very slow with too many ads.
Aurora seems to be independant from microG, so I also uninstalled microG stack.
So only Aurora Store as app manager seems to be the best option!
I also downgraded with the laster ROM of LineAge OS 17.1 (Android 10) which is only 1 year older (2021-03) than the latest here from L 19.1 (2022-06): it feels indeed faster than L19.1 on first boot.
I ll see with some apps installed.
Sensors are said to be ok on 17.1 but not on 19.1: verified? -> from my side, yes, they are working on 17.1
GPS is finally working on my 19.1 after many minutes stay outside: it was my main motivation to downgrade, so less important now.
SIM card / RIL seems to drain the battery to much on 17.1: it is working better on 18 and 19.1 ? -

About LineageOS
LineageOS is a free and open-source operating system for set-top boxes, smartphones and tablet computers, based on the Android mobile platform. It is the successor to the custom ROM CyanogenMod, from which it was forked in December 2016 when Cyanogen Inc. announced it was discontinuing development and shut down the infrastructure behind the project. Since Cyanogen Inc. retained the rights to the Cyanogen name, the project rebranded its fork as LineageOS.
LineageOS was officially launched on December 24, 2016, with the source code available on GitHub. Since that time, LineageOS development builds now cover more than 185 phone models with over 1.9 million active installs,having doubled its user base in the month February–March 2017 And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review.
About Galaxy S2 running Android1212.1!
Hi everyone,
Welcome to my thread for i9100 (from 2011) running Android 12. It took a while, but now the rom is at a usable state (no daily).
In my country my provider KPN will stop supporting 3G on march 2022 and this wil make my S2 unusable for daily drive. This means I probably won't port this phone to Android 13 in the future.
Update 16-03-2022
I renamed the thread because I updated the sources to LOS 19.1/Android 12.1 and everything is still working except of GPS.

Hi everyone,
In this build I fixed the camera and some decoding issues when playing video via the Gallery. It was using software coding. I also found the patches updated for Android 12 to support MicroG. I didn't patched it myself nor test it. Please test if this is working. The code looks good. I wanted to fix GPS first but I haven't got a clue why the blob is crashing...
I also applied some optimizations taken from i9300 LOS 19.0 builds so let see if it actually works and improves on our device.
Happy testing!

I noticed few days ago LOS has updated their repositories to Android 12.1, so I updated the sources and build it Everything seems to be working like in LOS 19.0. I didn't have to make any device specific changes in code so it was an easy port without any effort on my side. All credits to the LOS-team!
I don't know if there is any GAPPS for Android 12.1 available at this point, probably not yet. In the meanwhile I will create periodically new builds also for LOS 19.0 until LOS stops updating this and continues with LOS 19.1.
Have fun!
