Older versions of Lineage OS - LineageOS News & Discussion

I'm a user of lineage OS on the fairphone 2.
I have a big problem with lineage os version 17 on my phone. It constantly freezes when I use different applications (Timer, Telegramm, even sometimes when I get calls). I don't now why. Either it's a hardware problem (broken RAM) or it is a software bug. I wanted to test an older version of lineage OS like version 16 with android 9. I read something about some problems (like freezes) with android 10 which some devices have.
The problem is, there are no older versions of lineage OS for fairphone 2 (older than version 17). Is there a way to get the older versions?
I would be very gratefull.

Oh boy, yes, I had this very problem as well sometimes
At first I thought of WebArchive:
https://web.archive.org/web/20190724030204/https://download.lineageos.org/FP2
But very slow and in the end it didnt have the ZIPs but when I looked further I stumbled over this:
https://archive.org/download/lineage-16.0-20200325-nightly-beryllium-signed
With 73GB it contains all devices but with torrents you can also choose the one you want:
lineage-16.0-20200322-nightly-FP2-signed.zip (View Contents)01-Apr-2020 19:31419.7Mlineage-16.0-20200322-nightly-FP2-signed.zip.sha25601-Apr-2020 19:32109.0B
I think this is a snapshot before LOS 18 started...
PS: OH! Wait! From there you can even download the single files

LineageOS on Xperia X Compact?

Hi there,
does anyone know a working version of LineageOS (V14.X) for our Xperia X Compact?
The last version i´ve found is not updated since April:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/x-compact/help/rom-lineageos-14-1-sonylos-7-1-binaries-t3584504
Is there a newer Version?
Kind regards,
Chris
I cannot find any either, but Omni has a working rom with official weeklies, you can maybe try that.
Edit: It's more like a monthly, though. Last build is from Nov. 20
I'm not a developer, but I've made an attempt yesterday to build LineageOS. After several build errors (and dirty (possibly horribly wrong) hacks to circumvent them), the build completed but I was unable to successfully boot the resulting zipfile (it bootloops every couple of seconds). I then flashed the kernel (boot.img) from the older LineageOS-rom that is shared on androidfilehost, and I was able to boot the rom but the simcard isn't detected, so the rom is basically useless...
It is sad that there are no people out there that can maintain a weekly build for LineageOS. If an inexperienced builder like me can build and boot a rom it really shouldn't be that hard to improve the build.

Thanks! Could you say anything about the differences between Lineage and Omni? Omni's website is extremely sparse - no main point of differentiation, no feature list, no installation instructions - nothing. All it says is, it's AOSP "enriched", but not how. Their wiki link goes to a github page with a Code of conduct and a License Agreement - not very useful either.
Just noticed this - https://www.lineageosroms.org/forums/forum/sony/xperia-x-compact-kugo-f5321/
Plus AOSP Oreo - https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617948176
lineageosroms.org
lineageosroms.org
any more infos about that site?
looks quite impressive with the ammount of unofficial devices.
@Tom Mix: Looks to me like a lot of pointless clicking without any actual roms being offered. Seems like a scam (although I cant figure out their revenue model)

No!!! End of Lineage 13.0 official support for Tab Pro 8.4 (mondrianwifi)! ?

https://www.androidpolice.com/2018/02/13/lineageos-13-based-android-marshmallow-now-discontinued/
When I still thought I could continue using LineageOS 13 on my Tab pro 8.4 LTE (SM-T325) longer, and now it got discontinued.
Ending of support for the wifi version, means it should be the same for LTE version. :crying:
Because everything runs so smoothly and stable, unlike LineageOS 14 builds found in the forum which have many bugs like camera, torch not working. :crying:
Any chance of Lineageos 14 for Tab Pro 8.4 (WiFi and LTE) owners with bugs fixed?
Edit: Sounds like all of 13.0, sadly just the last version that supported our device. Makes sense I guess but sad to hear Likely a lot harder to get 14 working as we don't have any compiled drivers for things like camera under the new version of Android (no proprietary Samsung firmware for mondrianwifi runs the later Android and likely never will)
I'm happy to continue using it for the forseeable future
It's such a shame that the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 got such a bad software support from Samsung and it was not that popular among the community. Its successor, which is VERY similar, was much better supported. It also came with Kitkat (4.4.2) and it was updated up until Marshmallow (6.0.1). Moreover, LineageOS has an official 14.1 build for it: https://download.lineageos.org/klimtwifi Since they are so similar, isn't there any chance to backport some of the work done on Tab S 8.4 to the Tab Pro 8.4?
So sad but it is true
I just found this out as I had not checked for updates for my 8.4 tab (MondrianWiFi) running 13.0 in the last few months.... When I went to just check for an update there was none and in fact ALL builds were gone. I guess I better save and backup my current build in case it gets corrupt because it's the very last update I will ever get. ? Crap
Is there an Archive somewhere that the last updated version of 13.0 could be found?
I was going to update from the last CM flash I did about 2-3 years ago and I seem to have missed the boat...

Luckily I went from the CM 12.1 snapshot to lineageos early this month. Here is a mirror I made of 2/11.

Looking at the internet archive page web.archive(dot)org/web/20180323182211/https://download.lineageos(dot)org/mondrianwifi
The mirrorbits link has been taken down, but it seems this build is the latest unless someone fixed whatever was preventing new builds.
Sorry for link formatting I don't have 10 posts. I hope it is allowed to post links like this but it seems to be a restriction on the posting itself and not a rule so IDK.

THANK YOU! I just subbed to this thread yesterday, hoping someone would come through with a download. My tablet was running Slim6 perfectly, but I had a memory card crash, so was wanting to check out other options. Came here a tad too late to get the ROM, but fortunately you posted. How is Lineage working for you?

I also switched due to SD failure. It has been working nearly perfectly. My only issues so far have been somehow triggering the dismissible internal system problem on boot (failed gltools install?) and android n-ify not working as well.
Haven't bought a new SD yet, so I can't testify about that.
Technically have been having random crashes, but I'm pretty sure it is battery related as it is much more stable at higher percents/charging/low load.

I wonder which version of GApps you're running? The one I tried didn't work at all. Crashes all the time.

Is this Lineage OS 15.1 build for Redmi 2 Prime genuine?

Basketbuild.com/devs/Warrenlobo
I found this online. Contains number of Oreo builds for Redmi 2 (wt88047), but when I flash the Lineage OS Build update 16-03-2018 , it returns Error 7, says this is for the following devices....
A list of all the redmi 2 models appears on screen, including 2014818..
This is the only file I've tried from the list.
Can someone confirm if this is legit?
I'm looking for a stable Oreo 8.1 Build for this device.
Dont test it there are many cause i am trying to make them perfect i will continue it after my exams

Dear warrenlobo,
I just want to say that I already tried the two most recent builds and I'm impressed.
I was looking for an alternative rom for my Redmi 2 (2014813/wt86047) because MIUI updates have stopped a long time ago.
So I was searching for some recent builds of Lineage OS and by chance I read this post and this is how I located your repository.
First, I tried to flash lineage-15.1-20180316-UNOFFICIAL-wt88047.zip but got error 7 (This might be a problem with the recovery), so I removed the checks from the script and it flashed ok. The rom was slow, had some random reboots, maps and earth was crashing, FM Radio was not working but other apps, camera and settings were working. Modem was not working on my device and I had to flash a compatible NON-HLOS.bin.
Then I flashed the latest version, lineage-15.1-20180321-UNOFFICIAL-wt88047.zip in which maps and earth are running without crashes, FM Radio is not working and I think that the camera app is completely missing because the camera launcher is crashing probably it doesn't find any cameras in hardware level. The rom is slow, had some random reboots, but very promising with good battery life and I have it installed on my phone for now.
edit: Forgot to write that AudioFX is not functioning properly, you can enable it after a song starts but on the next song the sound would be muted.
Warrenlobo, when you finish your exams, it might be a good idea to start a thread for this rom, with some development changes so we can send you feedback and help you improve this. I think that it is very close to being a fully functional/full speed Lineage OS Oreo rom for Redmi 2. Also I think that you should make it an official LineageOS rom.
Thank you very much and good luck with your exams.
What about VOLTE with 21-03 build?
Lost it when flashed over 16-03. Haven't tried clean flashing yet.

Android Go is a slim Android edition for very basic/entry level phones. It has a simpler graphics, needs special apps because it has a limited/simpler set of libraries.
I think that Redmi2 is a decent phone, capable to run the full Android. But it could be built as an alternative to the full experience and it can be useful for devices with 1GB of RAM.

Multiple issues - Advise on clean-slate reset?

Apologies for cryptic title. My Mi A1 has multiple issues and a patchy update history. I don't know how to narrow this down to a single, simple question. Hope someone can help to make sense of this.
History: Bought new with stock Android One, Oreo. Few months later updated to Android One, Pie (official update). This caused big problems with wifi (connections constantly dropped and VERY slow downloads). Thought about reverting to Oreo, but decided to change to Lineage (which at the time was Oreo). So I downgraded from Android One Pie to Lineage 15 (Oreo). Generally worked OK, but with 3 big problems:
1. No sound during phone calls (I can't hear them, they can't hear me). Found a workaround involving editing the build.prop file (sorry, can't post link), but fix is temporary and needs regular re-boots.
2. Fingerprint sensor not working (no options to set fingerprint).
3. Camera app lost functionality related to dual lens.
I subsequently updated from LOS 15 (Oreo) to LOS 16 (Pie). Issues still there.
I wonder if I have some missing/incompatible vendor firmware components, but I don't really understand how this works. If I download and install, say, a LOS rom, does it contain EVERYTHING my phone needs to work, or do I need to already have some proprietary bits somewhere on the phone?
Is my best bet to start afresh (clean slate) and if so what would you recommend? Any help/insight greatly appreciated!
Hey pal, the Android Pie Firmware has some kind of anti-roll back protection, so when you install a non-pie ROM such as LOS 15 using Pie Firmware you'll have that problems like no-fingerprint, no incall audio, etc. If you install an Oreo Firmware with an Oreo ROM, you'll have fingerprint but no IMEI/Signal (and other problems).
You have 2 options:
1) Update your firmware to the latest Pie version and install a ROM like Pixel Experience or HavocOS (both Pie) and you're set, IMEI, Signal, Audio and Fingerprints will be working OK.
2) Install the latest Pie compilation using MiFlash and leave it stock.
Greetings.
Thanks for prompt reply! Can you spell something out for me please?
Regarding 1) I have already updated to LOS 16, which is Pie. Is that what you meant by "update your firmware to the latest pie"? Or do you mean a stock firmware? If the latter, then I could find a MIUI rom (from en.miui.com) but not Android One.
Regarding 2) Again, by "latest Pie compilation" do you mean the stock rom, like the MIUI mentioned above?
Thanks

Best Custom Rom for 2020.

There was currently the final update of the Rom Stock Android 10, security patch level as of October 6, 2019.
For a while now I feel that the phone drains the battery too much at times.
I was looking at Lineage OS v.16 as a viable option for my Google Pixel (Sailfish).
You who think of Lineage OS v.16 in this terminal, or if you know a better custom rom ... tell me your experiences.
I'll probably swtich off stock to Lineage OS 16 in 2020

Pixel Dust X (only on sourceforge, no xda post yet)
The most stabble 10 rom with a lot of features (more than evolutionx)
Upgrade to atleast Pixel 2. The pixel 1 chip is just downright horrible as daily phone especially those with daily usage of internet media consumption. It will stutter even scrolling or on the start page of a game like Mobile Legend. Even a snapdragon 625 is better

Afer the release of EvolutionX 3.5, man this rom is good, no bugs on sailfish and i think theres more features than pixel dust, it has a telegram group so unlike pixel dust you dont have to figure it out by yourself but you can ask other people
Same problem here, I tried everything to save battery but nothing helped, so I just downgraded to latest Android 9 stock(clean install)

Anything different after going to Android 9?
Battery improved?
Im thinking to just replace the battery.
It dit not work to downgrade to Android 9. I didn't get Magisk to run. But LineageOS worked and that is Android 9. everything is working fine so far, need some time to check the battery but I know that Android 9 was much better for my battery before I upgraded to Android 10. And I think there are no features which are missing now. New is not always better.
If you want to use Lineage, OpenGapps did not work because of the system partition size, I had to use MindTheGapps. Flashing Magisk was no problem but I don't like the Recovery from Lineage, so I flashed twrp after install.
this one is good too.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/development/rom-pixel-dust-sailfish-t3585007/page149
I just want to point out that the Pixel I got (new) would NOT stop freezing and stuttering no matter what stock/ custom rom I flashed, and the only sure-fire thing that fixed it was ROOTING and setting the GPU-Min-Frequency -on boot- to ONE step higher than standard [ 214Mhz instead of 133Mhz].
Hope that helps somebody.
I ended up with EX Kernel manager app that fixes my phone 5 seconds after reboot.

Same here, looking for the ROM that is suitable of the obsolete hardware.
Tried Evolution and Dust ROM, I like dust ROM more. However, since none of the custom ROM can be used with bank and payment apps, I switched back to the official ROM.
Android 9.0 update February 2019 seems to be the snappiest firmware I've used. After the update, I switched auto update off in the developer option (need to unlocked/relocked bootloader to downgrade).
Cheers.

Banking apps and GPay definitely work with custom ROMs as long as you're running a custom kernel.
