[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][9.0] LineageOS 16.0 [TITAN]

[ps_minky16]

Hi @ps_minky16 , would you please upload a new titan build for this Renan's los16 with latest android security patch? It would be amazing for us who want to stay at the stable version until Renan's los17 gets SELinux enforced and other minor bugs get fixed.

I wouldn't even bother you with this request but unfortunately the los17 development doesn't seem active anymore (no new release since launch on november 2019...) so at this point we can't even be sure if there's even gonna be an updated version anymore.

Hopefully one day we will reach los17 stable with SELinux enforced but until that day we would appreciate a lot if you could bring this los16 stable up to date with the android security patch!

Thanks a lot for your work on this community!

Sir i dont have LOS 16 source. I only have los17.1 source currently synced. And its somehow not possible to sync 45+gb of source just for a build.
I hope you understand.

I understand! How about sharing again at least the latest one you already built? If I understand correctly, you updated this build up to november 2019 android security patch, which is a security improvement compared to april 2019 from Renan. Any chance you still have it in your personal files so you can share it again? Thanks!

No sir. I dont have it now. I depreciated it when i released los17.
So sorry couldn't help you in this.

Alright, thanks for your answer. I understand. I'll stay on this los16 but I will keep an eye on the los17 releases. Hopefully @RenanQueiroz will revive its los17 development to reach a stable version with even SELinux enforcing. Regards!

Hi I tried the root addon in the Lineage Os page but it doesn't work, why?

Try Magisk

LOS 17 - Stable Version with SELinux enforcing

Hopefully @RenanQueiroz will revive its los17 development to reach a stable version with even SELinux enforcing. Regards!

Having a stable LOS 17 version even with SELinux enforcing is my hope, too!
Let's keep our fingers crossed! :fingers-crossed:

Unfortunately after around 3 months of relatively trouble-free usage (and any issues that did occur were solved via a reboot), I recently rebooted only to discover my dreaded nemisis that I was having to deal with in LineageOS 17 (not a typo) has reappeared - LTE straight-up not working despite having a signal and it working on a different phone.

I've also been having an annoying issue that may be an unfortunate security feature where the phone's bluetooth address automatically changes after something like a week or two and whenever that happens I can't pair any bluetooth devices unless I reboot, and of course I then have to pair existing devices again because the address change makes it appear as a different device.

At this rate I might just have to stick with the vanilla Motorola/Lenovo-provided Android 5.0 in order to just have things actually working as they should (and last time I tried around 3 months ago I wasn't able to get the official Motorola/Lenovo-provided Android 6.0 onto my Consumer Cellular XT1064 Moto G).

I only found a detail, sometimes launcher gets bugged on cases for example, changing DPI or when i got low memory on my phone

What is your--
Phone model (XT1063/XT1064/XT1068/XT1069): XT1064
Lineage version: 16.0
Lineage Download url: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=281227
Gapps version: open_gapps-arm-9.0-pico-20200918

Did you--
wipe: Yes, i did factory reset and deleted system before installing rom and also after having this bug (except for system on second time)
restore with titanium backup: no
reboot after having the issue: yes

Are you using--
a task killer: no
a non-stock kernel: no
LineageSettings/Performance settings (other than stock): no
Dual SIM: single sim
other modifications: only root addon and busybox

I tested this rom and i got a pretty nice battery duration and after i put a few build.prop tweaks and deleting some system apps, i got between 320-380 of free RAM, a little more than i got on stock rom but less than roms like viper os with my optimizations

I noticed something else, in this rom, launcher consumes way too much battery, it happens also for apps like amino, facebook, messenger, twitter, etc, even on lite versions of facebook apps, it haves much battery consumption, on 25 minutes of usage, i got like 8% of battery usage, the problem is not my battery, i bought another like a month ago (december 2020)

Thank you very much, i really wanted it because the security patch, when i finish my testing and optimization of Lineage OS 17 installed on my phone, i will install it, especially because i know a little better how to optimize android system

Your welcome! As for bug of time that you mentioned, you must disable automatic time zone in settings and choose your region.

Thanks, for some reason it won't fix that bug and happens too on android oreo roms, i think is because my sim card slot doesn't work for my phone, so it won't get it automatically, but it only happen on oreo roms and on AOSPExtended Pie, i tested on nougat, pie and android 10 roms and it works perfectly, i also tried to replace timeservice app but nothing, on Lineage OS 16 works with not problem, i want to ask, is there a way to improve battery life of this rom? i tried root booster, build.prop tweaks and other things but even if i got more free ram and battery, it's draining faster than other roms

Battery consumption on android 9 and 10 were never a problem here. It's probably fault of tweaks you mentioned. Unfortunately this is the price to pay for having more ram available.
System will always use this available ram, opening apps in background (but they will be killed in a few seconds)!
This cycle causes battery to drain even on standby.

You might be missing room in the data partition for the encryption header.

Try downgrading TWRP to 3.2.0 and format data.

IIRC this is a known TWRP bug.

HTH

Thanks, that worked but then twrp was unable to mount the encrypted partition (kept saying wrong pass code). Oh well, I removed encryption and alls back to normal.

Late to the party but this seems to be a known bug with Lineage OS. Users from another forum seem to have a solution:

this is due to BoardConfig.mk making the filesystem the full size of the block device. In place encryption requires 16KiB of free space at the end of the block dev.
This seems correct: I was able to encrypt successfully after resizing /data down by 16KiB. Explicit steps I took in TWRP:

Unmount /data
Open a terminal

e2fsck -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p25
resize2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 6233084


Reboot, go through encryption process again.

(I can't post links, but if you google the issue you can find the link there)

Does anyone know what the commands are to resize the /data partition on the Moto G 2014?

Does anyone know what the commands are to resize the /data partition on the Moto G 2014?

Made some progress trying to resize the data partition, here are the steps I used:

First, boot into TWRP recovery and connect USB cable (I'm assuming you already have adb working on your PC).

Then, open up a command terminal (e.g. PowerShell) and type:

adb shell

this lets you run terminal commands on your phone using the PC, then type

ls -l /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata

this gives you the name of the data block, in my case it is /dev/block/mmcblk0p38

Next, you need to calculate the size of your data block, I used

blockdev --getsize64 /dev/block/mmcblk0p38

which returns the size in bytes, divide that number by 1024 to get the size in KiB. In my case I got 5774208 KiB

In theory, once you calculate the block size, you can then use

e2fsck -y -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p38

and

resize2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p38 5774204

to change the size of your data partition
However, I'm stuck because e2fsck and resize2fs cannot read the file system (the file system for /data is tempfs instead of ext2).

Does anyone know why /data is using tempfs instead of ext? I'm only trying to resize the /data partition, no idea why this is so difficult.

Anyone tried Firefox on this Pie? The last few builds of Firefox results in reboot. Not sure whether it is due to low memory or something else.
