¡¡ HAPPY NEW YEAR !!


LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 8 (Oreo), 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. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. 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 out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.



Instructions :
  • Download the latest build and gapps
  • Boot to recovery
  • Flash the latest build
  • Boot to recovery again
  • Flash gapps
  • Reboot

Downloads :
  • Builds:
    • GDrive
    • AndroidFileHost (uploading..)

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 /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops and /sys/fs/pstore/dmesg-ramoops-0. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
  • If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

Just wanted to make a separate post about my experiences with this. @srfarias, you really knocked it out of the park with this here. It's very fast, fluid (if I disable animations in Developer Settings), and encryption actually works!!! Thanks for the stable Oreo ROM you made here

Hey @srfarias, I'm not trying to beg for specific ETAs or anything but do you plan to do an update for this ROM, like for bringing it up to January or February security patches? If you aren't I'll jump over to another Oreo one out there, but if possible I want to avoid having to wipe and start over, but more so than that stay with your stuff here since it's proven to be extremely stable

Can I dirty flash to this from srfarias's Lineage 15.1? I don't know if different source trees used to make each one screws things up when it comes to that

Three short questions about this rom:
  1. Stable, but how stable? Daily driver stable? For example: I'm using my harpia as a key for a car share program, bluetooth needs to work, else I can't even get anywhere.
  2. Battery drain: there were a couple of custom ROMs that had a battery drain on 15.x and 16, is that fixed? What is the battery drain overnight?
  3. Now that Official 16 has been released (hudson), that means the LineageOS team will deprecate 14.1. Will this build make it to Official Lineage 15.1? Thus Official support again?
Also: "VoLTE working", yay, truely yay if it works. Haven't had that working yet on any of my phones.

1.- The rom is completely stable everything works.
2.- No battery drainage
3.- I don't give official support, ask the developer @squid2 he takes care of that matter.

One more thing, would you mind posting up a link to the sources/trees you used to make it?

EDIT: Just flashed it and everything's really smooth, but unfortunately it breaks mobile data on Verizon

Running this ROM since last Sunday.

Battery life is greatly improved compared to Lineage 14.1/7.1.1 (but could be biased, because I haven't done a full wipe since October 2017). And with the animations in developer options completely disabled it runs smooth as silk. Haven't found any issues, will report back when I do. Great job!

I couldn't find the circle battery indicator I had running before, has that one been purged from this rom? I find the circle indicator more accurate than a vertical battery bar, without having to have the percent-level showing.

I'm having trouble installing Magisk, recovery (twrp) is installed normally, but when I start the system, magisk manager (apk) is not installed and applications that use root access do not show the notification to allow.

Apart from this problem, the rom is more stable than the nougat.

Find the APK in Magisk-v*.zip/common/ and install it.
