[ROM][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 16.0 for Nexus 6P (angler)

[harryyoud]

Heya, you may know me as harryyoud from some of the LineageOS blog posts, IRC or Telegram. Although I've been on the LineageOS team from the beginning, I'm quite new to the development game, so go easy on me I've also got a lot going on in my personal life at the moment, so this is going to be going slow for now, but I'll answer as many questions as I can

Some things that are different from 15.1/official LineageOS right now:
- selinux is currently permissive
- no root addon
- you don't need to flash a vendor image, this now comes with the ROM
- Security level is September, but blobs are currently still on August. No particular reason, just haven't had time to re-extract them
- I haven't found any bugs or regressions from 15.1, but if you find any, please let me know here (I will need steps to reproduce the problem)

All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS GitHub repo. If you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit our Wiki.

Important Info
To flash this rom you need TWRP 3.2.0-0 or newer. https://twrp.me/huawei/huaweinexus6p.html

Make sure you have the radio, & bootloader img's installed, from the stock oreo 8.1 OPM6.171019.030.K1 Sep 2018 factory image.
They can be extracted from the factory image on Google's site here.

Download Links
ROM: https://harryyoud.co.uk/ota/

Instructions
1. if you don't already have them, flash the radio, and bootloader img's linked above. also make sure you have the newest twrp, linked above.
2. wipe system & data & cache.

Reboot & enjoy.

Massive thanks to razorloves and sam3000 for maintaining angler on LineageOS 15.1.
It's likely I'll be taking over this role for 16.0, depending on how much free time I can dedicate to this

Good job ????? thanks for your hard work and time for this... ????????

 

[beddess]

have been waiting for this. downloading now

 

[akg2002]

Good to hear, thank you sir

 

[harryyoud]

If you downloaded the ROM before the time of this post, you will need to redownload or it will not boot (copy on server was corrupt, and sha1 was of the corrupted file too). Apologies! Not off to a great start

Future updates should be available over OTA

 

[akg2002]

Yes, downloaded, but not booted.
Nope.
Again i will..
Thank you for the information sir

 

[beddess]

still having trouble, phone is shutting down by itself? also bringing up pattern unlock which i didn't set up before

something similar being discussed in the 15.1 thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77754155&postcount=1251

 

[ScOULaris]

Oh, boy. Gonna keep my eye on this development. Once it sounds like all the showstopper bugs have been mostly dealt with I'm jumping in for sure.

 

[beddess]

sweet!, formatting data in twrp seems to have gotten me past that unlock thing

 

[bigcelo75]

Been looking forward to this day

Got it... just restarted my phone

Does this ROM currently have Adaptive Battery functionality? I've noticed that some Pie ROMs don't, so I figured I'd ask.

 

[AXUAN]

Clean installation, smooth ROM, but can not log in to Google account, can not play video.

Anyone that has been able to get this to work see any bugs? Im curious to know what's working and what isnt. And also i noticed it has its only su, does magisk not have support yet or do you have to flash los su first before you can use magisk?

1. Cannot sign in to Google/Gapps does not work
2. System UI keeps crashing during first time setup, a reboot fix it. maybe random though.
3. WebView does not work. use firefox or chromium instead.

Okay, I did the see the SystemUI thing once but never get it to do it again, how ever many wipes I did. Like you say, it's probably random

WebView, I can confirm here doesn't work. I'll look into that

Which gapps are you using? I'd personally recommend MindTheGapps 8.1 (those work fine on 9.0), but you'll need to delete the Google SetupWizard after installation (/system/app/SetupWizard), since I have found that to be broken on angler.

I was using open_gapps-arm64-9.0-nano-20181002.zip but it keeps loading like forever at a certain screen (I forgot which one though)
I will give MindTheGapps a try c:

---------- Post added at 08:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 AM ----------

I tried MindTheGapps-8.1.0-arm64-20180808_153856.zip it also does not work.
whenever i tried to login it stays on Checking Info screen for a while and then i got this error
pretty sure it wasn't a connection issue, my other android devices in the same network work just fine.
