Samsung Galaxy A40 LineageOS Rom? - Samsung Galaxy A40 Questions & Answers

The GSI rom should be supported but it does not work. Are there any custom roms that support the A40?

"does not work" doesn't mean it is not supported. maybe you missed a step during installation? which guide you followed and what is the exact problem?

Do you have it running? Gapps or microG? What are your experiences?

Suggestion about LineageOS with MicroG in X722.

Is it possible make a custom rom with lineage OS and micro G for replace google services? I have seen that it is possible in other devices.
Thanks in advanced.
I'm interested in too.
Anything yet?
micro can be installed in any rom, the only needed are signature spoffig
im now using it with aosip
and there are a lineage fork with microg support
https://lineage.microg.org/
Thanks @Gonfebo
But on the lineage-microg web, I can only see "zl1" model, wich is LeEco X720, not X722 (zl0).
Does it work with LeEco X722 too? Is there any complication to install it?
PS: Can you share installation guide for AOSIP, please?

not sure about it, maybe there are for zl0 also
if you arent used microg before, install it should be a little difficult
you can use this installer, its the easiest way

I'm using this on Validus Oreo. Works perfect. Easy and fast to flash. Chrom, Google Maps, Youtube and Mail works.

There is talk about adding treble support in the official thread, but don't believe its there yet..

How to get the Lineage OS nightly for my phone T-Mobile SM-G930T

I have the Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930T which runs android 8.0 with the firmware G930TUVS8CRL1. I believe I have found the right root files and tools, and now I just need a custom rom. I really like to try Lineage, and I have downloaded version 14.1, but it says it is for Android v 7, and I like to try Lineage version 15.1. I found the Jenkins site for Lineage, but I do not see an option for searching. I need help either making sure that version 14.1 of Lineage works fine after I root the phone, or how do I get a custom rom that works with my handset's software please.
I am also open to other ROMs. Please give me suggestions.
Also, does anyone know which version of twrp I will need?
Last but not least, Lineage instructions asked me to check the CPU architecture on my phone with an app, but I could not find the icon for CPU. Instead the apps says I have a Qualcomm snapdragon Kryo, which Wikipedia says it is Arm64. I need this to download the right version of GAPPS.
I just realized I posted to the incorrect group, would someone please move this to the T-Mobile Q&A please? I have looked, and do not see an option for doing this.
Thanks

Project treble and GSI ROMs Vs aosp ports

As we've now finally got lineage os ported to our device as well as a treble support of some sorts, what are the advantages or drawbacks of running either?
Basically I want to drop Samsung and run a aosp ROM on my s8
I can either flash a port like lineage os 16 (which works quite well by the way) or I can go with Hades treble and flash an gsi ROM.
What would be the benefits or drawbacks of either solution?
I hope someone that has now tested both solutions can comment here.
I am assuming here. I think the treble ROMs can to updated with the latest sercurity patches more easily.
I think the los16 port to the s8+ can do the same but from a developers view I don't know how difficult it is to implement each month.
I'm on a treble rom now and always will be due to the fact that the Samsung s8+ patches are coming every 3 to 6 months now after the September sercurity patch.
I need clarification but I think that is the case.
Happy flashing
...
In regard to twrp backups. It can be done in treble. Just don't backup the system image. Click everything else. It works for me.
Is it actually already possible to activate treble on an Samsung S8 and install afterwards a GSI rom like "Pixel Experience"? So far I just found this "Project Treble for Samsung Galaxy S8".
