LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10 (Q), 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. Your changelog is whatever was merged into gerrit.

Great, for me the first Andorid 10 Rom on Marmite where fingerprint is working. Looks like all key features are working also. Only one Problem I have found: Mobile Data is not automatically connecting if LTE mode is chosen, only GSM/WCDMA (auto connect) will get a reliable connection which survives a reboot. If I then switch to LTE-mode it works until next reboot. Then I have to switch back to 3G again to get a connection. I'm located in Germany if this matters to LTE-frequencies. Any hints on that?

Besides this point: great work.

I had a very similar problem with early versions of the ROM. For me these problems completely went away in the latest version and it's stable for me now. Did you do a clean flash of the ROM from the 11th of December (the latest version)?

Another thing you could check is if you have the latest modem version, which you can find here:

Settings -> About phone -> Android version -> Baseband version

If it says "937_GENNS_PACK-1.83666.1.89031.1" then you have the latest version, otherwise you could update it and see if it solves the problem.

Hi, thanks for you answer.

Modem-Version is as you stated. I have wiped Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage before installing this rom. The only one I did not wipe is "Vendor", didn't know if it is save to kill it also. Could this be the reason?

I wasn't sure about the "Vendor" partition too, so I didn't erase it, just to be safe. That probably doesn't cause it then. Hopefully someone else has any idea what the cause of the problem could be.

Some more test later, I'm a bit wiser..
I managed to delete vendor and flashed the image again -> same problems.
I tried Pixel Experience from this thread -> same problems.
Unitl now I have tried only my own two SIM-Cars from Deutsche Telekom.
Now I put in my daughters SIM from another provider -> No Problems

Edit: No problems with D2 and O2, only with D1 (all german providers) I had the connection problem; will use another card...

Hi I'm new to this forum.

I'm having similar problems as tiger-tw on a swift 2 x with EE in the UK. Except I'm just getting phone signal but no data at all regardless. I tried changing modes but this will still not get me any data. Choosing LTE gets me no phone signal at all as well as data.

I can confirm I'm also on the latest modem version.

I will try borrow a SIM card to see if it has problems on another network.

Edit - Having tried a Vodafone SIM same problems. Calls won't go through with either SIM despite having signal and the correct network showing.

2nd Edit - Have now tried this ROM on a swift 2 + and everything is working fine with my SIM, so problems only appear to be occurring on Swift 2 x.

3rd Edit - So on a complete wipe and re-install on my Swift 2 X (Only wiped cache, data etc last time) now have data and calls working no problem. Only minor issues I have left is fingerprint not working (Did not work in lineage 15.1 either) and rotation/sensors are not working.

Is there a possibility of the fingerprint patch being published separately? I'm running a Q AOSP ROM on my Marmite, and I've already got everything set exactly how I like it... I'm only missing fingerprint support ^_^

Thanks for the new build! I'm going to update from the previous build of the ROM to this new one.

I have the previous build running for more than two weeks now on my Swift 2X, which I use like 24/7 a day. In my experience the ROM is fast and stable, and I have not encountered any bugs or unexpected behavior.

It's a great ROM and it gives this phone a new life. Great job!
