LineageOS Oreo​
[/COLOR]

Code:
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/

What's working :-
Code:
- Camera
- Ril
- Sound
What's not working:
Code:
- This is an Alpha, lot of untested functionalities
- Encryption
Installation instructions :-

-You need latest TWRP-3.2.1-0 for flashing AOSP ROM'S Found Here : TWRP THREAD
-Get ROM (and GApps) and put it in your phones sdcard.
-Boot into recovery mode.
-Take a backup of your existing partitions ! Specially EFS/CPEFS !

-Do a factory reset. If you are coming from previous version of LOS itself then this step is optional.
-Flash ROM (then flash GApps).
-Reboot. First boot will take time.

Reporting bugs
DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)

Great work! Thank you. I thought the dev who made the Lineage OS Rom not maintains it anymore. So I've always wanted for the latest release.

Can you also make Resurrection Remix ROM? I'm a big fan of it :)

Previous LOS Roms for my J530F have had issues with SIM 2.
When calling or receiving a call from SIM 2, you could only hear the other for like 3 seconds then there is not sound, when you switch to loud speaker, you hear again in the few seconds then no sound again, back and forth it was.
I have downloaded the ROM.
Am about to install it, and this is what I'll be testing.
If all is well, I think am going to keep it.
I love LOS, so fingers crossed.

Wow! It didn't take long to reboot at all after flashing the ROM and the gapps. Under 3 minutes. Took like 2 minutes.
.

Unfortunately for the ROM doesn't read both SIM lines
SIM 1 and 2.
Couldn't even setup my Google account, I use mobile data for that, don't have WiFi.

Am back to my previous ROM

Does one restores the EFS partition after flashing the LOS ROM?
Did some searches, got that it's responsible for having your phone connect to Networks.

Sadly I do not own a dual sim device to test, and the sim card part was the most difficult to get working. Right know we use an hackish way to enable it, maybe it is the issue. Are you asked for both pin codes or only one ?
If you are rooted, please try to manually start the 2nd ril daemon. Also please provide the return of
Code:
getprop | grep -i ril
Do you wiped the device before ? (system & factory reset)

@kegang : no, Idea was to first reproduce the other Lineage build, then switch to omni (it is the rom I like to work on) but, right now, only 9.0 is supported for omni.


Thanks all for feedback :)

It's awesome that you put work into an older device. Thank you. Is it possible to buy you a beer /paypal/etc? I'd love to. I cannot test the alpha as my phone is my working device, but as soon as it's getting close to stable, I'll test it out. Thanks!

Thanks for your proposition but I do not want to. Just doing this with @steadfasterX for fun, without any guarantee.
But if you know someone with a unused dual sim device, please let me know :)
Thanks again :)

None of the SIM cards is pin protected.
Not asked.

I can't use any SIM.l card.
It can read any SIM card.
What can I do?
Please provide log. I can do nothing with this kind of reports (I do not own a dual device).
Code:
adb reboot
adb wait-for-device
adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log
adb logcat main,radio -d > logcat.log
Does the device ask for pin ?

@nailyk Lineage os 16 would be great for Samsung j530!
If it is coming from me, it will be Omnirom ;)

I just flashed it today. I'm being asked for PIN, but I'm unable to call anyone and I do not see IMEI.
Dual or single ? What variant? As for @diogoc17 please provide logs. Can do nothing without.
