[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][9.0] LineageOS 16.0 [PEREGRINE]

[sdembiske]

For those of you wishing to update to the NOVEMBER '20 Security Patches, I've uploaded one of my unofficial builds that is based off the latest build files available with the most recent security patches added (I know there are a number of members who for one reason or another are unable to or unwilling to build it themselves).

Note: Requires Full Clean Flash when installing rom for 1st time I.E., coming from 14.1 (official or unofficial), etc. - in TWRP wipe Cache, Dalvik cache, System and importantly format Data > Yes before flashing the appropriate Open Gapps (pico Jan. 17th '20, for now - the latest uploads have been presenting problems with Pie) - reboot, then in TWRP install preferred root (latest Magisk version recommended). I do not recommend the Xposed framework that's available for pie as it is closed-source).
Very Important: Do a nandroid backup first, including your data - copy any data/media files (e.g., photos, videos etc.), on your SD card over to your PC.
Note: Encryption is not working fully - If you need it, check out the 14.1 rom - it is fully up to date in my latest uploads there.

If you're coming from one of the unofficial updates I uploaded previously, I recommend you do a regular clean flash (wipe Cache, Dalvik cache & System), re-install Open Gapps, reboot to recovery & install preferred root (latest Magisk recommended). I do not recommend the Xposed framework that's available for pie as it is closed-source, i.e., you really don't know what you're installing).

I've uploaded my copy of the Jan. 17th '20 Open Gapps ARM Pico 9.0 here as it appears to be no longer available for download from the Open Gapps site: https://mega.nz/file/QShAkSqL#U20D_i2CI1VxtnblLKrSzwDNK4AAxxdGTb-KTT_iYlU

I give full credit to the author of this thread @Allstargaurav and in particular to @sevenrock and @RenanQueiroz for their excellent work in getting this rom to this point. Those of you who have not been building this rom for themselves but using the last posted upload by the author of this thread will notice some substantial improvements and should be very pleased with how it performs now. After flashing let the rom settle in for a number of hours to start to see the improvements and reap the full benefit.

I do, however, recommend you learn to build it yourselves: refer to post # 230 for the full build instructions.

Hi @sdembiske, thanks a lot for your work.
Don't you ever have launcher crashs and screen wakeups ?

What do you think of creating a Docker image for automatic Peregrine builds ??
i'd like to build but have no time.
Docker seems awesome for Lineage building

I haven't experienced launcher crashes on this phone but have on my LG G4 at one point with my preferred launcher, Apex. It was I think due to an update for the launcher - a removal and reinstall seemed to help, but failing that I would do a Full clean install of the rom (as per my notes in all the updated rom download posts).

As for screen wakeups, very few. I use the donation version of Greenify on 16.0 and on 14.1 I use the donation version of Amplify together with Power Nap to minimize screen wakeups in addition to Greenify.
Refer to: ✭[GUIDE][26-07-2016]Extreme Battery Life Thread(Greenify+Amplify+Power Nap)✭

In both 14.1 and 16.0, I do the following:
- In your phone. go to Settings > Security & Privacy > Trust > Privacy guard -- when in Privacy Guard click on the 3 vertical dot menu at top right of the screen > Advanced > horizontal scroll over to 'Device' and turn off the Keep Awake setting in Google Play Services & Google Services Framework and on all your User apps that you do not need to be active at all times - also turn off, i.e., ignore Start at Boot & Run in background on those User apps that you do not need instant access to on boot-up etc. There is no impact to their functioning when you need to actually use them.

Hi @sdembiske,

thanks for Greenify.
With Settings:
- Smart hibernation > Enabled
- Light hibernation
- Aggressive sleep
- Automatic hibernation

Screen wakeups are very rare.
Well done
