Thanks so much for the hard work on this rom.
I managed to install it relatively easy.

To make one of my banking apps work I had to install Magisk and add it to the deny list.
Intially it didnt allow me to install a TV/streaming app, however the following morning it all of a sudden allowed it.
Any idea why that would be?

Update: Streaming app (DSTV Now) works, but when I view a channel, then want to go back to main menu of the app/exit the app (so basically stop the video stream), the phone freezes (greyish color with a buzzing sound), then automatically reboots.

Update 2: Similar behaviour on the Disney+ app (no buzzing noise, but straight reboot), on the F1 TV app no issues experienced.

Also - not sure if this is a bug or a feature I dont know from this Android version - but i dont seem to get a little bubble on top of messages app / whatsapp to indicate I have new / unread messages. Is this a setting somewhere?
Argh.. I have no idea about where it could come from 🤔. Do you have logs please ?

First time doing this - let me know if I did attach incorrect log file
Log.txt = Disney
DSTV Log = DSTV


DRM info gives L1 Security Level Widevine
Yasnac passes Basic and CTS - evanluation type BASIC

I will check what I can do with Magisk and advice (i can perhaps disable some functions/modules).
Edit: With all modules disabled / Zygisk disabled etc, crash still happend (could not find a way to disable Magisk)


Another symptom: within Disney+ (not tested on DSTV), if I rotate my screen, it also hangs/beeps/reboot (same as going out of the app).

Logcat File: I am trying to upload to this post, but I dont see it? Zipped it

Did you tried to install SafetyNet Fix or Shamiko?

Is Volte working on this ROM?
GCam and other camera apps appear to crash/freeze when used.
Okay I got GCam working using the google services spoofer.
OpenCamera is still not working (freezes when taking pictures) but that's just OpenCamera things.
Really like how this ROM looks and feels. Battery life's better, too!
Also, Volte is confirmed to be working. Calls, messages, and data all are working.

Hey, yeah I'm working on a fix for camera crashes. This phone is so annoying with its camera
Thanks for your feedback about volte !

I went from LineageOS 18 to something else with Android 13. It ran horribly, was unusable and the battery died in ~5 hours, just like that.

Then from 13 to 12.1 (ArrowOS) that ran better and lasted longer, but was still too unstable, probably because of too little RAM. After gaming something always crashed something from Android. This had the positive effect that the device lasted longer.

I am curious how this unofficial LineageOS 20 will be. I have now flashed it and set up all my apps again. So far I can say that it runs faster than ArrowOS with Android 12.1. As for the battery, I do not know anything yet. I ran a calibrator at 100% and discharged the battery once. Let's see how it looks then.

But I have one problem. SELinux is disabled and probably does not want to run.

    I've checked few streaming apps, it's not crashing while streaming but when I do back gesture or slide notification bar

    Yeah i've seen that this rom and crdroid have the same issue, they crash when in gesture mode while streaming. Only on android 13

    I've tried many camera apps (different gcam versions, opencamera) and there is not a single one that works. It always freezes at one point.

    Can anyone suggest a camera app that just works? Or any bugfixes I can apply?

    Thanks.

    Hey, you should try this app. There are configs pinned in the telegram group if you want

    I am happy to share that I found a relatively reliable gcam version for the Redmi Note 7.

    MGC_6.1.021_MI8_V2e.apk

    What seems to be working reliably: Back Camera Photo, Front/Back Camera Video

    With some other modes, e.g. Front camera photo, it freezes sometimes, but you can still tap on other modes and unfreeze the app.

    The ROM itself works quite well. It's fast and battery life seems good. So thanks!

    I'm currently on march build and I use only this phone since then. (april OTA updates ruined system - google play services didn't work anymore. It's my only phone, can't play with testing, because I need it every day. )
    I practice as always clean install + smallest gapps package (currently Nikgapps core).

    To the point: Camera related issues​

    Suggested fix to use certenly camera app and custom config I don't see this as a appropriate solution! I encounter camera related problems on every step, doesn't matter which app I used. Tested with open camera, proCam X and furthermore Viber, Noteblock (pdf scaner like app), ... always the same.
    Camera freezes or is lagging. You never know, if picture will be captured and later saved. Roughly say it fails on 50% or more of shoots. Absolutely unreliable and from my point of view a critical bug.

    Suprisingly even after a fresh reboot is not always reliable. When it fails, I just press home button and close the app - wipe it from last opened apps. Then I repeat task. Maybe then works, maybe not. It's extremely annoying try 5 times or more for succesful saved image (doesn't matter in which app). You miss important moments...

    Hey guys, two quick questions:

    1) Can I trust the internal updater, or should I dirty flash manually?
    2) Anyone else has the video mode in the default camera permanently zoomed in?
    The OTA Updater works fine as long as you have the signed recovery image flashed.

    For the camera, try changing video resolution to 720p or 4K. Seems like 1080p is bugged.

    LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 13, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.


    LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

    All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. You can also view the changelog for a full list of changes & features.

    Nice ROM, seems to work fine. Hope you can make it official.

    I'm able to use my banking apps. To pass CTS I've used:
    - Magisk Canary - Hide app, Enable Zygisk, Disable Enforce List
    - Universal SafetyNet Fix
    - Shamiko

    Do you have a Telegram support group, where I could occasionally report some log cats if anything happens?

    Appreciate
