Who is this @tarkzim? Superman! That's who!
Thank you so much!
Amazed by your determination to keep MAX UpToDate !
Wish you the happiness you deserve
Thank you so much for keeping this phone alive!
@tarkzim noticed that Google Play Store (nikgapps) do not seem to always properly detect the device is connected through WiFi. Like it is waiting for a mobile connection?
Tried various access points.
The source link of los19, tree kernel and vendor pls share

You should just grant it a network use or something like that from an app info page, had the same issue but it solved it

Thank you. I will check that tonight. I remember that from earlier days now that you mentioned it. Thank you for taking the time to respond. Love this device.
It may be my old 2/16 GB device and it's low performance, but the YouTube app seems to not load videos, and when it does, it's taking an eternity, so I'm trying to understand if it's just my device, or anyone else has this issue. Connection is good btw, the app used to perform better on LOS 18.1

I'm wondering if it's because I've set my SD card as my internal storage, which is usually slow, and the app tries to buffer the video onto it, but I doubt it's actually because of it, just my thoughts

You could try clearing browser's and app's cache, and maybe data too with app.

Try on another network, or set device back to defaults using original storage location?
Not sure what is happening there. I expected YouTube through the browser to play fine.

Does yours work alright tho? I'll test it all in the next updates, pretty sure I'm going to be factory resetting (wiping) my device anyways
Amazed to see this, never expected this device to be on the latest Android version at all.
Thanks for this, I'll flash and would let you know.

Known Issues
Screenshots and Recents App thumbnails are blank
Runtime storage permission does not fully work (setns kernel patches are not applied, see com.android.cts.appsecurity.PermissionsHostTest#te stInteractiveGrant CTS test. After granting permission, the app will need to be restarted before it sees the new permission.)
Additionally, Dual SIM has the following limitations (once they work):
Both SIMs are always enabled (no way to disable one SIM)
"Receive incoming call while data is enabled" is always enabled
Installation
Make a backup!
If you were on CM 10.1 or a stock ROM prior to 4.2, upgrade to stock 4.2 first.
Install ClockworkMod recovery with SELinux support. Older CWM will result in a "status 7" error.
Reboot into recovery
If you are using a recovery which mounts /system on boot, unmount it before installing
Wipe data if coming from stock or other ROMs (You may get a "status 7" error if you fail to wipe.)
Install the ROM
Optionally install the Google Apps Addon (In Marshmallow, you MUST flash gapps before booting into the system for the first time or else the proper permissions will not be granted resulting in Setup Wizard crash. If you experience the crash, you will need to do a factory reset.)
To upgrade to a newer build, simply flash the zip. There's no need for data wipe or flashing Google Apps again. (However, if you are experiencing strange issues, you may want to try a wipe.)

Building instructions
https://github.com/lineageos4microg/docker-lineage-cicd
Known issues
(mostly comparable to any LOS based rom out there)
battery life could be better (compared to 14.1) I guess : idle consumption is low, BT on the contrary consumes a lot.
camera doesn't work flawlessly (same as other LOS based rom)
Thanks for contributing
How is battery life as of your tests? How bad is it compared to stock and to other LOS builds?
What are the flows of camera? Is it only quality, or some functions are lost?
Keep it up! :
Hi, battery life is significantly better than last 15.1 build from Option58, at least when idle ; most of the "to-be-improved" consumption is related to BT.
Cameras flows are the one already reported for all LOS based rom (nothing less, nothing more) : quality seems sub-optimal, 16:9 needs to be selected in settings and from times to times crashes may happen.
Sir, wonderful rom indeed.
The only thing I want for my A5 2017 is a custom kernel for AOSP based roms. I know it is stupid to ask something like this. But please get us a kernel. This will improve battery using profiles, support for overclocking/underclocking, and just usual Basics. On the other hand this rom is fabulous, and would love to see it growing more.
I'm providing a clean LineageOs with microG build, i.e. no custom kernel.
The basic idea of this thread is to offer an alternative to the Google-based ecosystem.
Have you tested NFC? Is it working properly?
Seems so, yes.
Okay, after a day of usage, I've occured some problems.
Aforemention that I've done a clean install:
- GPS not working - High accuracy is on, yet neither GMaps, neither Waze can locate, saying that no GPS signal is available. I don't know if this is correlated with microG, if it's caused by some Google framework is missing - since that should be the point of microG, but it's definitely a problem.
- Login with Google is not working - I assume this is a problem rooting from microG, and my misunderstanding, but it would be nice to make this available somehow.
Apart from that, it seems to be a nicely functioning ROM, which is nice to see on LOS.
Not to only mentio negativities, here's something on the pro side: I'm using an Amazfit BIP, which requires constant BT connection to the phone. However, I haven't occured any unreasonable battery consumption caused by BT.

Why the names?
Yes, GPS is indeed not working ; location service cannot be accessed as well. I need to figure out why.
Strangely, this was working perfectly fine with (older) LOS 15.1 builds without microG.
Regarding signing at google, I will not look at it, but you can go through the https://lineage.microg.org/ (where do I report a bug) logic to find out where the issue is.
Edit: I've just installed GPStest and selected the "device only" option (to use the GPS only) ; it is now working. what puzzles me is that whenever I'm trying to access the security/location settings page, it will crash. I guess there is something wrong in those bits, that will eventually be corrected upstream.
The one with the dot is an accidental registration by signing in with Google. The other is the original which I use, yet sometimes I get signed out, and relogged in w/ the Google one. I'll contact MikeChannon to remove my alterego...

A possible answer could be that microG's network provided location is somehow not working, or not properly. If GPS in itself can locate, then the network based data should be corrupted or should cause some trouble, yet I lack the knowledge how to test it.
are you able to see the security/location page, and configure the location details (with last build, it is working fine now) ?
microG needs some backends to be activated for proper wifi/gsm triangulation/localisation to work, did you configure them ?

I had to revert to hadesStock, since this is my work phone also, so I'll only have a chance to test on the weekends and on office days.
Yet what I remember is that I had all possible configured in microG, nothing else in the setings apart from the basic modes.

Building without MicroG
Is there a way I can build this exact ROM without the MicroG implementation? It runs much smoother than my builds, I was wondering is it using a different device tree or is this just because of MicroG? Many thanks
It's just because of microG.

2021-04-30
Initial release
Thank you @LumenReaper for this build!
I can confirm fingerprint is not working, but this is no bigger issue to me.
Flashed Magisk and changed fingerprint two times. But safetynet is still failing - no idea. My sim card is also not detected.
I use the tablet for youtube and yatse mostly. Youtube Vanced workes fine and my Bose headphones are also connected and working.
Looking forward to this ROM thank you.

Thanks for installing. Glad to hear you're getting along with the current feature set. I should have mentioned that my tablet has WiFi only. Feel free to send me a log if you want, but I expect it will be difficult to fix it without the device itself.
Personally, I have not had any problems with failing safetynet. In which situation does it cause you problems?
Will continue with the fingerprint scanner as soon as I have time again.

You' re welcome.
First I want to thank @LumenReaper for the efforts to keeping our tablets up to date.
Is this ROM stable enough to use it daily or can I better wait?

I do not see any issues with failing safetynet so far. It was working in 17.1 so I just wondered about the error after changing the fingerprint of the device by the help of magisk.
I will try to build the rom on my own with your sources - hopefully I can help with the non working SIM card.

If you need a SIM card , fingerprint or camera then you need to wait. For normal multimedia usage I call it stable enough.
That won't matter for me, I'll flash the ROM and patiently wait until those work on the new ROM.

Sounds great. Let me know if you run into any issues with building.
Do you think this wll also work for the TB-X705F, the successor model?
I've installed this ROM but one thing I noticed is that the internal storage and the contents in it aren't visible at all on MiXplorer Silver (The file manager I use)
It isn't visible at the default file manager too so I rolled back to Lineage OS 17.1
I would appreciate if this is fixed @LumenReaper

I cannot confirm this problem. The default files app shows me the internal storage and an SD card with content. If I would have had such a serious problem, I would not have published the rom yet.
Have you done a clean flash? Have you tried the format data option in TWRP?

I don't know, do you use the TWRP of this series?
No, I dirty flashed it.
I use TWRP for TB-X704F.
I'll also try a clean flash.

There is a separate TWRP for the tb-x705f series - any chance that this will work with your ROM?

I have not found a link to the code in that thread, but I expect the rom not to work when you need a different TWRP.
Great work Lumenreaper! (now I need to find the courage to install it on the only operational tablet that I own )
I did manage to build it myself using Docker & the docker lineeage-ci-cd image (see https://github.com/lineageos4microg/docker-lineage-cicd )
Hello,
LumenReaper!
Thanx for your work, sir!
Tell me, please - Lineage OS 18.1 made on Android 11.0?
There is no word about it in first topic of this thread.
If Yes, where can i find Google Apps package for it?
Asking , because at https://opengapps.org/ there is nothing for Android 11
Thank you
Installing now
will try BiTGApps

Ok, so far, this release is stable and very snappy. No bluetooth and no cell service yet but everything works for the most part. Also tested Magisk and that works too. I wasn't able to get the battery percentage to show in the status bar. I also found Gapps for this rom, by BitGapps. Very minimal though. However, apps from the Play Store are not installing. Maybe it's just me or a rom issue, but I wasn't able to install anything from the PS as of yet.
Link for Android 13 Gapps (ARM), in case anyone wants to try.

Will it slow down with googles suit of apps?
Coming from lineage 17 I've wiped and factory reset clean install via TWRP 3.4.0-1. The device will boot up to setup screen but then reboots to recovery. Am I doing something wrong?

I wonder what makes you add support for newer and newer versions of Android?
Sports interest?)
Maybe there is an Android version that is the most successful (progressive). Maybe it's worth focusing on it to integrate the native SenseHome shell. Or is it impossible?
I have already switched to LineageOS and back to stock firmware M8 several times. Now version 19.1 is installed, but I'm thinking of going back to Sense again.
NFC does not work in version 19.1. Problems with calls. And Wi-Fi catches the signal worse than the original firmware.
Hi Tarkzim thanks for bringing Android 13 to my M8
Have installed the dec 11 build, runs fine but the keyboard hangs for about a second rather frequently. Have wiped system and cache before installing.
Posting this in the hope that someone finds it helpful. I tested this ROM on a m8_wlv, Hboot 3.19, OS 6.21.605
I can confirm the following:
Calls, SMS and Mobile data work
Phone isn't constantly warm like on the 12 ROM
Phone charges and drains normally
Camera, Wifi, Audio, Video and USB OTG work
GPS works
Multicast DNS (mDNS) address reolution works!
Bluetooth is broken
Occasional display glitches and 'Systemui has stopped' errors
Screenshots:
Have replaced the ROM keyboard with Swiftkey (version 7.1.4.19). That seems to work fine.
It feels the ROM is stable and good enough to start using on a daily basis, were it not for the permissive Selinux. Any chance of changing that into enforcing?
hey! do you think i can install this on Htc one m8 Eye?
Even with this brand new build, I get the dreaded "e1001 failed to update system image"
I flashed the `sense-firmware-img_0p6bimg.zip` firmware image, and reinstalled `twrp-3.7.0_9-0-m8.img`
Is there something else that's needed before I can actually install the latest lineageOS ROM?
I have tried out this ROM and it works better than the stable Android 12 ROM due to it being snappy as soon as I power it on, meanwhile with the 12, it would be very slow when powered on and I would have to wait a bit for the phone to be snappy.
The only issues with this ROM are of course the issues mentioned above such as Bluetooth being broken, Visual glitches and it freezing for a couple of seconds every time which is highly annoying and made me roll back to the 12 ROM.
But all in all, I can't wait for this ROM to be stable at some point! Thanks for the work that you are putting in @tarkzim !
How did you reflash to have the right partition?
The rom is having charging issues for me, my poor htc gets very hot
New build released
Updated to Android 13.0.0_r35 with March security patches.
Upstream updates and fixes.
Add some display props.
Automatic update: There are no updates available.
Need to wait?

FAQ
Help my sim doesn't work
Please read the installation instructions more carefully. Oreo firmware bootloader and modem is a must.
You can find the collection along with the guide in this xda thread.
I'm sometimes having crackling sound when listening to music
Turn off 'ok google now' functionality in google app settings. If you have troubles finding it you can as well go to settings>apps, find app called 'google' and disable microphone permission.
Does this rom support VoLTE?
No. And it likely won't in the near future. Samsung's exynos VoLTE implementation is proprietary and non-standard. It is not possible on AOSP based roms for the time being.
I have weird issues with camera (wrong resolution, issues with flash etc.)
Тhis could very well be an issue with the included camera app. Try a third party camera app.
Will you fix the bugs? Will this version ever go official?
I've already fixed everything I was able to. The main drawback is that our linux kernel 3.18 has become too old. Our devices starting showing their age. Because of this version will not go official.
My hardware keys light up whenever I touch the screen
Navigate to Settings->System->Buttons->Backlight and tick 'Illuminate buttons only when pressed'. You might want to reduce time on the scaler to 1 second, too.
How to switch to full screen gestures
1. Navigate to Settings->System->Buttons->Backlight and tick 'Enable on-screen nav bar'.
2. Navigate to Settings->System->Gestures->System navigation and tick 'Gesture navigation'.
I need help with google camera
Please see this xda post.
Help! I have problems with my bank app/my device is failing SafetyNet.
Try following this guide by Simon1511.
Nice to see this out, great work
Great job as always.
im glad there's still hope for a little bit of support for our rusty device
i know this is pretty ridiculous at this point but i really hope this become another galaxy s2 situation where despite how old the device is.. it still get more and more versions despite its age
Yea, but the S2 is more of a tinkerers device at this point, A5 is still usuable (at least on A11, broke my screen before I could test 12 :C)
Possible update with simple TWRP install (wo delete data) from 19.1 Unofficial? (I think yes.)
Very nice rom ....smoot and stable
Which one is better LineageOS 19 or LineageOS 20? Which one is more stable for daily use? Or is just LineageOS 18 stable enough for daily use for now?
How is the battery consumption?How is the camera?

I also think yes, but no one has tested this already. Note that you would surely need to reflash the same gapps package you were using before right after the new version flash.

I can't tell this for certain. It totally depends on your usecase and preferences. There aren't any unresolved bugs coming from previous versions (other than mentioned). Some people say however that the rom runs slower than the previous versions, especially with gapps. For me personally it was still ok.

Not worse than before with lineage at least. For what it's worth, there is actually a new lineage camera app now. And we were getting some good battery life results during the testing.

What does Network traffic monitoring do? I switch off Mobile data and WIFI for many apps in the app settings. Without Network traffic monitoring, does it mean that separate app Mobile data and WIFI switching off will not work reliably? Or is it completely unrelated?

I focused mainly on fixing rom bugs, so I haven't had much time to investigate the google apps situation.
But yeah they exist. They can be found using the link in the thread.
Flamegapps, Nikgapps and perhaps a several others are there for android 13 already.
