"LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 8.1.0 (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. 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."

[Zjh0094]

Good los15.1 Can I install directly from 14.1? Now I stopped unexpectedly when I used Titanium Backup.

 

[kolibre]

no problem to make calls.
GPS is ok so far, it has to be confirmed again after 4 days due to gpsonextra updates every 3-5 days.

battery drain quite fast. brevent recommended?

Slow motion profiles have not yet been applied. I will add in the next build.

it's desirable to make a full wipe

Probably wait for 1-2 days

Thanks, I am directly in the Los15.1 brushed by wiping. I tested everything and it works perfectly.

Will there be a treble version anywhen?
I am happy with treble but what drives me nuts is there is no 100% working camera and what about arcore our device got a neural network cpu or i am wrong?

 

[kolibre]

Google photos takes forever to upload my photos, even enabled to use mobile data to upload.

Treble version will be, I myself am interested in this. I think soon there will be only one version of treble.

auto-brightness is crazy (disabled it). Slo motion works on freedcam, after editing media_profiles snapcamera hdr started shooting slomo. Stock camera works ([email protected] and [email protected] don't work) Gcam doesn't work (I have no wish to find the reason) Rolled back to beta oreo.
Stock cam dng crashes sometimes while switching 12/23 mp, portrait bokeh doesn't work.

Up Now I found that the automatic brightness and display color are not so good, Bluetooth is not currently until the discovery of these.

auto brightness is getting better after 2 days using, AI start working? display colour is good for me, nothing uncomfortable to me.

You need aroma gapps package to choose faceunlock too

i remember facelock was available in nano and above, but I can't find it in nano as well.

Yes, the automatic brightness is not very good at the beginning, and the color and automatic brightness are comfortable after a few days.

Very good, thank you for bringing in new updates, but I have one thing I have to tell you, my Z17 was broken by me. The reason is that I want to change the battery, but it is so difficult to open, the screen is broken, I am sorry I can't test the update, please forgive me. (from Google Translate)

I respect your business, but I think there are some things that need to be done. The device of the same feature is much better than nubia in terms of custom rom.

for example ; Mi 6, Oneplus 5, Google Pixel 2

Will you keep updating this rom?
For example; Core settings, new gpu driver, Gpu underclock, spectrum support, wakelock blocker (boeffla settings), Eis support for 4K, Wireguard vpn tutorial etc ...

Can you do that?
