LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 6.0.1 (Marshmallow), 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. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). 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. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit our Gerrit Code Review ( http://review.lineageos.org ).

Important:
This thread is for stock LineageOS 13.0 and any mods, kernels or Xposed framework will not be supported.
If features, options or code is NOT in the official source code, it will not be in my builds.

Recommended Firmware:
Most recent firmware for OOS 3.6.1 is recommended.

Known Bugs:
None

Installation:
Download the zip(s)
Install a compatible Recovery (TWRP recovery recommended)
Perform a nandroid backup of your current ROM (Optional)
Wipe data/factory reset
Flash LineageOS
Optional: Install the Google Apps addon http://opengapps.org/ ( I tested nano and stock pkgs)
Reboot
Note: Built in root is available in Dev Options, but I'd use magisk

I know some of you may wonder why even post something as old as marshmallow. I still get a lot of use from LOS 13, and have been building it for myself for a while. I figured I'd upload the latest with Jan security patches, for those who want it. Happy flashing.

 

[monark88]

Not sure about the support we'll get from LOS going forward. They never merged February security patch, but they may have just been busy. We'll see.

does it have hal3 with hdr and all that cool quality we used in marshnallow?

It does, HAL3 and hdr

I run mine with amplify, greenify, android n-ify, gravitybox, and alert slider app

wow, this is great!
thank you mate!

You can get volte by flashing the kenzo patches. Just saying.

I also built this ROM myself to which I had mentioned in another post. Good job!

Any chance you're able to build with release keys instead? This will then allow some apps (its quite minimal) to run correctly.

using 22nd Jan build since yesterday.
I missed so much the great customization that CMTE brings to LOS!

as far as I can see 'til now, there's no issue at all with your ROM.
excellent work, thank you!

More info on this, please?
Kenzo is redmi note 3 iirc
Would the .zips work for OP2?

Yes. They will. Flash the patch1 zip, boot up the phone, wait 10-15 seconds until you start seeing that the com.android.phone has stopped working. Then go to recovery and flash patch2 zip, clear dalvik cache and reboot. Voila.

I'll add this to the first post

Thanks for this. I updated first post.

Does anyone know of any cm13 theme which properly themes all the essential apps?

This ROM has been a really good ride for the past month or two for me - very stable and actually there is not much new in Android 7.x which really matters. LineageOS unfortunately made 14.x unstable by reworking the kernel in the middle. It's ok for the most time but then some random event happens and it will drain your battery in few hours.

I think I will stay on this ROM assuming Android security patching still happens in future. Thanks monark88!

I've got a new build, but nothing is significantly changed. I've been working on a custom kernel for MM, with extra governors and upstream merges. I'm running this ROM myself, so you can bet when there is a security patch, I'll upload it for us all.

I'm with you on anything above android 6.0. When LOS 14.x kernel was reworked, I was on RR unofficial. I remember the drastic changes. I compiled this not soon after and have been on it since. I've watched on the forums as everyone has scrambled after HAL3, and balancing HAL3 with HDR (or the lack there-of) and all the non-sense that goes with it.

Meanwhile we've got manufacturer supported blobs and code for everything our phone was meant to do, in a nice stable OS.

If you're reading this, and thinking about trying it, just download the ROM, flash xposed (or use xposed magisk) and get Android N-ify, Amplify, Greenify, Alert Slider, and GravityBox. You'll be kicking it on the OP2 old school, updated, and stable.

That's right. Many people don't seem to be very methodical when testing new ROMs. Mostly noted on comments about battery life. I don't use my phone much as the majority of my daily work / comms happens on PC - so its easy for me to see changes when I update the phone. I don't use gapps either, so my testing is purely based on the kernel and the ROM performance. This ROM can go up to 5-6 days in idle / light usage, whereas the latest official LineageOS 14.x is probably around 4 days same use. Feel free to test. Same applies to boeffla-kernels, they consume much more battery on idle than the LineageOS stock.

I'm not a developer myself but it's easy to understand that all this hacking for newer Android versions than the source code provided by manufacturer, can very easily lead into problems. It could be ok, but unfortunately many people always think that the latest is always better. I think it's fair to say that new android versions just complicate the menus and slow down devices more than the useful features provided. As long as security is updated, I don't really see any need for Oreo in my phone.

It's nice to hear that you are also testing for new things in kernel, I might test them if provided as separate update.zip. However I assume most people using LOS 13 or your build are probably after stability.

Hold on right here...i need a minute to comprehend...so, basically, if i flash this, i will get the most stable android experience there is, it will most likely improve my battery live over N/O roms, i will have all the OOS 3.6.1 OP2 features working (including things such as slow motion, HDR and panorama), the latest security patch will be installed and the only drawback is that it will be a MM release? whats the catch ?

Lol, for the most part (and in my opinion) yes.

The catch is that if you like the latest cutting edge features, we don't have that built-in here. All we offer is a stable phone that has ALL of the features working in some form or another, without wondering what will break in the next build.

For the record, I still flash Oreo ROMS on MultiROM to stay aware, but I run this as a daily driver.
