This is incredible work, thank you so much for keeping this amazing phone alive! Everything works so far, and the phone isn't even that slow considering its specs. I have two questions though. Does this support encryption? I'm asking because a lot of custom ROMs don't really do encryption right or at all. And the second one is about Magisk. I installed it successfully, it works, and while at first it was passing the SafetyNet checks, after a reboot it just stopped passing them (both). I had Magisk hidden (and the manager as well). I tried unhiding it and rehiding it but still, the tests won't pass. It's very strange because there was a moment that the phone passed them both.

Does anyone have valid fingerprints for the N7000 so I can try using MagiskHide Props Config?

I never tried about encryption but seems like encryption won't work well according to i9100 users due to misconfiguration in fstab. rINanDO didn't merge the change so I didn't had it on my side too.

About the safetynet, the build fingerprint is already valid (i did updated the fingerprint prior release because the old one will fail CTS for sure), as if the fingerprint is invalid you will most likely never able to pass CTS. For me the only case that it fails is after installing edxposed, and there's no way go back unless reflashing whole system.

About the unhide and rehide, I'm not quite understand that, do you mean unhide and rehide Magisk App in the Magisk Hide list?

As per my testing after reboot, I have to toggle the MagiskHide switch in Settings and then it is already sufficient to let the safetynet pass. It is a known odd problem for some devices where the magiskhide service won't "actually" boot, but appears to be booted and working. Switching off and on after reboot solves it instantly.

Xda n7000

Ahhh…
Just flash back your xperia rom first. You didn't tell me yet whether flashing back that ROM makes the phone boot or not.
Drop me a link to the rom thread.
_Build-3_AmniX-Xperia_Note_GT-N7000_TW_Edition.torrent and yes I remember that booted Well..

Thanks again for all your work

Hello

First of all I want to thank lee.wp14 and all those who work to keep my beloved phone working updated and to all who contribute their comments in this forum.

I have been using version 20200417 for a week without problems (with magisk and gapps nano)

I had no problem with the installation from the Bauner NightOwl LineageOS 15.1 (which I used for a year and a half)

I hope you can recommend any application to reuse the radio and the s pen

Thanks again for all your work

For radio, AFAIK the only radio app that is supported is Spirit2, and it needs root.

For spen, actually the spen is working, it is just that it won't function fully like how it is on stock rom (such as spen gestures and spen secondary click).

First big thanks to for your work! Installed it today and seems to work great (comming from 4.4 rom).
I'm using the phone as some sort of smart display, however it seems that the "notification access" menue is missing, and apps who need that don't work.
Do you know if that's a LineageOS 16 issue?

I think this is probably due to our device being identified as low ram device.

Try set ro.config.low_ram from 0 to 1 in /system/build.prop and see

Thanks, I'll try.
Do youi know by any chance if I can "fake" a charching/docking status even when the phone isn't?
The reason is that I've replaced my battary with a direct wire and I'm using it as a smart home hub. However the phone thinks it's on 100% battary all the time so I can't use daydream unfortunalty.

Edit: sorry for my earlier reply, I misread your message.
Yes, I'm able to fake the charging status over wireless adb using the following command (with adb root). I think by placing this command as a init.d script directly should work:

Code:
dumpsys battery set ac 1

Hello Guys,

I have just installed this ROM and the Phone is incredibly slow...
Is there something more to do in order to improve this ?
Thank you
1.google apps might slow it down since this is an old machine
try not to flash G apps
2.try greenify to close background apps
3.try magisk + Lspeed with performance option in it
4.enable develop options and turn maximun background apps to 0 in it.

Hi there, it's been quite sometime since I last posted.

After thorough considerations, I've decided not to publicly release LOS17/Android 10 for n7000. It is due to poor graphical performance that for the time being, I have no way to workaround this other than overclocking the device. In Android 10, we have to use triple buffering, so the graphical load increases, plus we have 720p display.

I will however, upload android10 builds alongside where I upload LOS16. You can flash if you feel to.
In short, for N7000 Android 10 builds, no xda thread, no support, no release, no discussion. Use at your own risk.

For LOS16, I will continue provide update, but for now not because my Android 10 work took the whole harddrive partition space already.
Also, I plan to rework all LOS16 device sources thus, will take some time. Thank you for your patience.

Stay safe at home, have a nice day!
