LineageOS is a free, community-built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 11 (R) 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. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS still includes 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 Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a complete list of changes & features.
Recommended firmware
V12.0.3.0.QDTMIXM
Note: This ROM uses FBE encryption, any current existing recovery won't be able to decrypt data!

Glad to welcome you devs

Hey @SebaUbuntu,
First of all, thank you for your efforts
I've a few things I'm stuck at, you or someone else hopefully can help me with.
I flashed it with a data partition, encrypted from Android 9. As expected, it refused to boot and going back to the recovery my data partition was garbled.
Formatting it let me boot fine. I then was surprised, to see the storage as encrypted again in settings.
Trying a reboot to recovery I can't manage to get in. All Recoveries I tried, are stuck on the splash screen.
I tried the Pitchblack, OrangeFox, TWRP and SkyHawk recoveries, but it's the same with all of them.
Is there a working recovery that is able to decrypt the data?
Additionally, I setup a lockscreen Pin, but never got asked if I wanted a secure boot. So I'm unable to use a custom pin for the encryption key, which makes it somehow pointless to encrypt in the first place.
How can I solve that?
I want to use the phone without GApps. Instead I plan on using MicroG, which needs signature spoofing.
My old way using Riru Core, Riru EdXposed and the XposedModule FakeGapps to enable signature spoofing doesn't work anymore sadly.
Would it be possible to add a signature spoofing patch to your builds?
TL;DR:
- Is there a Recovery, able to decrypt the data partition encrypted from your rom?
- I can't set my lockscreen pin for a 'secure start', is that a bug or desired behaviour? (And if so, why? )
- Could you enable signature spoofing in your builds please?
Regards,
L

@9Lukas5 Have you tried https://files.sebaubuntu.me/Recovery/LineageOS-Recovery/platina/ ?
I had similar issue with my Mi8 dipper when I upgraded from official Lineage 16 to 17. Twrp wouldn't decript, it turned out the /data mounting dev path was different and twrp couldn't find it. I lived with it for a while until twrp got an update. During that time, I had to use sideload to update Lineage OS.

@haoquan thanks for this tip, I'll save this definitely for the next attempt
I've restore my LOS16 setup for now to have a working phone, as my Setup relies on working Signature Spoofing + MicroG^^.
If someone knows a solution for the Signature Spoofing and custom encryption pin, I'd be pleased to try another upgrade.
In the mean time I'll try to compile an updated LOS16 build using the device parts of this rom (hopefully this will work, otherwise I'll have to find Pie compatible device parts first )

Thx sir, for u working.

- This ROM uses FBE, Secure Boot is a FDE thing, the ROM will now "encrypts" always
- See 1
- No, I want to be compliant with LineageOS, I won't add anything additional to what it provides

Ok, so if I get this right, this is no bug that Android doesn't offer me a secure start anymore setting a lockscreen pin?
Maybe a bit offtopic, but if the storage can be decrypted by a default password that's not changeable, how is the data security provided?
Edit: Google FBE <-> FDE quickly.
So this means, a "secure start" is always provided automatically, if I set some sort of lockscreen security and the personal files will be accessible only after first unlock after a reboot?
Can you confirm if the recovery from your domain @haoquan linked above will work with the LOS18.1 encrypted data?

Yeah discovered this by now^^
That means there's no way of making a nandroid backup before altering around with updates, etc right now :/
But huge thanks for bringing up this rom. Thanks to your work and fully linking the device repo's, I were able to make a private build including the MicroG patch which is mandatory for me. So I finally switched from Pie, which was a rather old build by now.
What I found/would give as feedback so far:
- Video recording doesn't work (gives a green imaged video).
Tried with the built in camera and OpenCamera, both are the same.
L

I have stuck to Havoc 3.9 for past few months. Tried the latest Colt OS but on my Mi 8 lite at least it led to very erratic responses on fingerprint sensor, so I switched back to Havoc. Anyone actually used Lineage 18.1 on theirs and offer any feedback please?
Pros/cons vs Havoc pls

Thanks for this room, I see that the effort has been very gratifying.
I have a problem in the use of the camera, it does not allow recording the images
or videos to the internal or external memory, thanks if you can verify and correct this big problem I would be very grateful.

I'm using it since ~a week. It's fully stable for me so far
Basically everything except video recording works for me.
Android 10 roms had all the same bug blocking me from switching, that I couldn't playback my music sadly (aac, mpeg4-audio container), that's working fine here.
So I can't give you much of a comparison review, other than that

What camera do you use? I'm using OpenCamera, set to use Camera2API and take pictures. Just video recording takes a green image all the way through

Good afternoon, flash the rom I use the camera that comes with the same rom and install several additional ones and there is no way I can save the photos and videos that I make with this or another camera. I like the rom, but if I can't use the camera, I fail

I used this rom and it seems better than the original rom, it is quite stable, but for me it is essential to use the camera for both photos and videos and voice recording

@lewismsc Do you know which firmware you're on?
I'm using the V10.3.2.0.PDTMIXM right now.
@SebaUbuntu could a too old / too new firmware cause these different experiences and is there a recommend firmware version for your rom?

It is recommended to use V12.0.3.0.QDTMIXM

Hi all, thanks for all the advice on what is still a very good phone. I have managed to change the firmware to V12.0.3.0.QDTMIXM MIUI via Mi Flash tool, but when I try to send TWRP recovery (tried several) in fastboot, it says its sent the recovery, but there is no root and fastboot does not go back into main TWRP screen. Never had an issue using firmware 10..3.2. I was using Havoc 3.9 custom rom for a good few months. Also tried Orange Fox & PitchBlack with same result.
Keen to try this lineage 18.1 rom, but I'm stuck.
Grateful for any advice please, as MIUI 12 has its limitations. Can't even get Whatsapp notifications at top of screen!
Thanks

After a good few hours over past few days of frustration, I realised I simply need to press Volume Up on phone when entering fastboot reboot command after successfully flashing TWRP recovery (3.3.1 I tried) ...at long last I can restore my backup from 14 Jan of Havoc 3.12 rom !

Chroma Nexus 7 3g tilapia can't install
Hey, I can't post anywhere else because of post count but I hope zephiK sees it here. The last zip for Nexus 7 3G of Chroma is not possible to install because it has the grouper binaries. Please could you update it to be able to install it?
(The exact error that console gives upon install is: Error executing updater binary in zip chroma_tilapia-ota-2015-04-05.zip. This package is for device: grouper; this device is tilapia)
(no, i have not downloaded the wrong zip, just in case.)
EDIT: I've seen the one maintaining Nexus 7 2012 builds is @sykopompos . Maybe no one has reported it yet. The builds you are building for tilapia don't work because recovery thinks they're for grouper. Could you update fix this error? I can't even install it...

GPS not present
GPS Status app says "GPS not present on this device".
As reported by other user, Google Maps does not show location either.
A million thank you's to everyone who has worked so hard on this! I'm only a few hours in but I am really enjoying it, when I thought, "welp might as well try a couple more lollipop roms before going back to jellybean" I didn't expect this! In fact it kept me up all night (in a good way). Camera is working great with CameraMX but still having GPS issues, even after doing the selinux permissive via terminal: "su", then "setenforce 0." I mostly use this for games and browsing at home, so neither of these are a deal breaker, but after reading through the ROM thread I figured I should try
I know grouper is a small user base, but it's so nice to have your lollipop and eat it too. Much appreciation!
Now GPS works, not sure what changed, I just ran the same "setenforce 0" from a root terminal and it popped right up.
F2FS Support???
I know the OP states that the rom doesn't support F2FS but some people are apparently using it with f2fs by flashing a f2fs capable kernel. if this is true:
1. Which kernel is built into the ROM
2. What format will the ROM use upon installion? ext4 or just leaves the partition as it is (I already have f2fs which is why I'm asking)
3. Can I use the latest M-Kernel on this if it doesn't already have this kernel
Thank you in advance

1. I believe it is still the stock kernel for this device. The person working on this device hasn't been able to integrate Franco with it yet.
2. System *MUST* be ext4. I tried to format cache to f2fs but the kernel just reformatted it back to ext4.
3. You'll have to read the parent thread, but I believe the person doing the N7 development said that was possible using the "anykernel" framework, or pretty much make sure you don't replace the ramdisk or boot.img shipped with the ROM. But again, read through the parent thread for definitive answers.
Thanks dude, exactly the answer I was looking for!
Does anyone having success booting another kernel than franco r82? i dont want to use franco kernel but anything else turns my n7 in a bootloop state , im running the lastest 22/4 built, f2fs cache only

I'm using Franco, but I know some people have had success with Bricked in the parent thread. It is definitely a picky rom in terms that the kernel can't replace the boot.img or ramdisk, what kernel are you trying to use, and are you sure this isn't the case?
I had bricked on 5.1 and it felt as fast as my 2013 version, now it feels more like 5.0.2, i think i will simply roll back to 5.1 :good:
Location services are not working for me. No blue dot in google maps, pressing the current location button just prompts allowing gps access over and over.
Set up wizard has stopped
I factory reset with the latest TWRP, installed 4/22/15 Grouper ROM, installed Banks dynamic gapps 5-3-15 beta2, and installed SuperSU v2.46. After boot, I receive several error messages Unfortunately, Set up wizard has stopped. The only thing I can do is press OK. Then there is a black screen with the time and battery indicator on top and the navigation keys on the bottom. Thinking it was a gapps issue, I tried flashing the gapps again but it's still the same.
What should I try next?
Thank you!
Hi, the ROM is really soft , but i have one problem, i lock the screen and the tablet off alone, i run miui rigth now, i have the same problem with cm12, i install full clean ( NRT - stock) and nothing.. Help please ???
Stuck at Testing Connection
If I install Gapps, it gets stuck verifying internet connection. If I flash the rom first, it will boot fine, but no apps. Which Gapps version will help me?
setup
When I flash this it installs and boots to the setup but won't go any further. It keeps saying something like setup has unexpectedly closed, I have tried to install several times but it won't go past that point. What am I doing wrong.
The rom works great except when I change the DPI, I get stuck in a boot loop. I'd really love to be able to use this rom and change the dpi.
I encrypted my phone to test it out. I've decided I don't need it and want to undo it. A google search shows that doing a factory reset should undo this, but with this ROM that doesn't seem to be the case. Anyone know how I might un-encrypt the drive?
Hi, first to all sorry for my english.
I have a question, I revived my N7 2012 and work very fast and have a great performance with this rom. Before I was using the official rom. I flash the rom and gaps, but I still have the google kernel. How I can change that? I follow this post, I need download another kernel? how will be the correct order to flash again? Checking the filse system is ext4, is better use f2fs.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Flashing it right now, right here ^_^

Thanks to:
@invisiblek for building and permission to link to his CM13 builds folder, and all his work to get this to the point it is right now, including getting Mobile Data to work
@Hnk1 for making me aware that the builds had started
Don't expect support from anyone in this thread. Help might come but it's likely that if you're experiencing a problem that @invisiblek is already aware of it, or it's a CyanogenMod issue that all ROMs will have. In the meantime, please feel free to communicate with other CM13 for VK810 users here to confirm/deny the existence of any issues you might have, or discuss any workarounds when possible.
Please mention what build date of CM13 you're on when you're discussing issues.
Installation Notes:
It's smooth as butter.
Flashing this definitely doesn't work with a newer bootloader. I recommend flashing this from TWRP v2.8.7.0 after a fresh flash of the 11A KDZ and downgrading the bootloader in order to install the initial Loki'd version of TWRP v2.7.0.1 and then upgrading to 2.8.7.0, or if necessary, first the 22B TOT and then the 11A KDZ after. All necessary instructions are in my [VK810.4G] [altev] most reliable way to root and install a custom recovery thread. I actually manually downgraded the aboot (bootloader) even though I was on 11A and my instructions at that link specify that downgrading the bootloader further wasn't necessary, so I haven't tested straight from 11A's bootloader.
When I had tried @invisiblek's TWRP v3.0 July 19, 2016 build for the VK810 (the current build that's available), it accessed internal storage just fine - my MicroSD card is formatted ExFAT so that might be the trouble - I haven't tested USB OTG on this build, nor backing up or restoring. This build of TWRP flashed the ROM okay, and looked like it flashed OpenGApps Pico okay, but no matter how many times I tried or even trying to flash OpenGApps Nano, when the ROM was booted the Play Store still wasn't there. Reverted to a known good version of 2.8.7.0, wiped all and fresh flashed ROM and OpenGApps Pico and all's good so far.
I use Slim Zero GApps for Marshmallow (6.x) with this, available at [GAPPS][6.0/5.1/5.0][arm/arm64] Official Slim GApps. @invisiblek uses Open GApps (Pico Package). This tablet uses an ARM processor and CM13 is Android 6.0x.
OTA's work and point to @invisiblek 's newer builds when they're available. If you take OTAs and you had system Xposed installed, you'll have to flash Xposed again.
[*]Root can be enabled without SuperSU by first enabling the "Developer options' in Settings. Do so by going to Settings / About tablet / scroll down and touch "Build number" about 10 times in a row, then you can see "Developer options" in the main Settings menu immediately before the About menu. At the bottom of the first screen of the "Developer options", under "Root access", enable either "Apps only" or "Apps and ADB", for most users' purpose. I believe "Android debugging" (two options down further from the "Root access" in "Developer options") was already enabled.
System Xposed build 86 (sdk23) for Arm processor, and Greenify including the latter's Xposed module appears to work okay. Trying G3TweaksBox (made for stock but might still provide some functionality under CyanogenMod) rotation tweaks doesn't appear to help the rotation issue I'm having. G3TweaksBox's Sound options like "Link Ringtone and Notifications volume", "Force media volume control" and "Auto expand volume panel" all appear to work. Other modules I've tested: Amplify, Battery Home Icon (% text at least for 100% is offset), DirectAPKInstall Module doesn't work (I think it didn't work on stock on this device, it works fine on my VS985 G3), Flat Style Bar Indicators, Marshmallow SD fix, Play Store Changelog, installed but haven't tested YouTube AdAway and YouTube Background Playback. I had attempted Systemless Xposed and it wouldn't flash from TWRP, but it's supposed to specifically require SuperSU v2.76, so I didn't necessarily expect it to work with CM's built-in root. Haven't tried SuperSU yet, but if you do, disable CM's built-in root first.
Do not ask about when anything will be fixed, nor requests for features/new builds etc, or when CM14 (Nougat) or CM26 (Zagnut) will be released.

Brightness adjustment (I recommend Lux Auto Brightness or Lux lite by Vito Cassisi and it can be chosen to integrate with CF.Lumen by @Chainfire)
Occasional black screen when you try to wake up the tablet. It's necessary to hold the power button in for 10 seconds or so to force turn it on, then either continue to hold the power button or let go and press again to turn boot the tablet back up. @invisiblek hasn't had this issue on his own VK810 in a while so I need to provide some further testing and reporting once I experience the issue again. I haven't yet tried the GApps that @invisiblek uses just to rule that out although I doubt if that'll make a difference.
Rotation might not work - I haven't tested on the fully "stock" ROM and have a bunch of apps/tweaks installed now so will have to double-check on a fresh flash later. The best app workaround I've found is Rotation Control. This enables you to manually control rotation via icons in the pull down notifications. There's other apps to do the same thing but one of the other highly rated ones didn't work for Reverse Portrait, and the other one didn't have Reverse Portrait at all. At this time I have no idea if the tweaks I made in G3TweaksBox might've improved the "Rotation Control" app's behavior, or if any other settings I have going on might've one of the other apps I tested.

Using Style part of Dark F Material theme:
My process of elimination steps trying to diagnose why I always get 1) sudden black screen and also 2) sudden soft reboots (starts immediately with CM boot animation) and 3) UI restarts.
8/2/2016 morning: wiped Cache, Dalvik/ART and Data flashed the 8/1 build and OpenGApps Pico 8/1 or 8/2 from TWRP v3.0 M5 July 19 build, then booted the ROM and noticed GApps hadn't installed even though it looked like it went through the motions. Repeated attempts to flash GApps both Pico and Bank from TWRP v3.0 had same results. Flashed TWRP v2.8.7.0 by Brian someone and flashed GApps and they installed fine.
Set my Google account up, changed a bunch of settings and I think I enabled CM's root, installed some stuff, was satisfied and then by mid-afternoon I opened my case and found it had black screened.
8/2/2016 evening: Put his TWRP v3.0 July 19 build back on, wiped Cache, Dalvik/ART and Data, flashed the 8/1 build (but not OpenGApps), then wiped internal storage, turned the tablet off, ejected my MicroSD card which is formatted ExFAT, and booted the ROM. I turned WiFi and Mobile Data off but otherwise didn't touch it at all.
8/3/2016 late morning, tablet still hasn't had issue so I put it in Airplane Mode, one of the things I almost have it set to when I'm not using Mobile Data.
8/4/2016 late morning, still no trouble. Connected to unsecured work WiFi, downloaded latest OpenGApps pico and latest stable SuperSU.zip v2.76. Rebooted to TWRP v3.0 M5, flashed SuperSU.zip and the log looked perfect but apparently the ROM won't boot. This TWRP 3.0 M5 build won't read my USB-OTG or a 16 GB FAT32 MicroSD card I put in. Using USB, the PC does access internal storage through MTP in TWRP v3.0 M5, so putting a copy of CM13 on internal storage to flash. Dirty flashed CM13 8/01 build and it's booting okay.
Enabled Developer options and CM's built in root for Apps only. Tomorrow I'll install @Chainfire 's FlashFire and try to use it to flash OpenGApps since when I used TWRP v3.0 M5 to flash OpenGApps, once booted to Android GApps weren't there and I'm trying to avoid going back to TWRP v2.8.7.0 for now.
[*]8/4/2016 mid-afternoon. Interesting but not conclusive observation. My last action late this morning was to enable CM's built in root for Apps only, and just now (four hours later?) I opened my case and found the tablet was having the black screen issue (requiring a power button long press to force off and turn back on). I just re-disabled CM's built-in root, I'm rebooting the tablet again after having changed that setting, and we'll see if it black screens again anytime by tomorrow. If not, I may enable root again and see if it black screen relatively quickly.
One more.
Updated OP with accurate information about @invisiblek 's latest build of TWRP v3.0 for the VK810 as of July 19th, 2016. Summary: seems to work, just possibly not with ExFAT for my MicroSD card, or not with a 128 GB card.
Edited update: This build of TWRP flashed the ROM okay, and looked like it flashed OpenGApps Pico okay, but no matter how many times I tried or even trying to flash OpenGApps Nano, when the ROM was booted the Play Store still wasn't there. Reverted to a known good version of 2.8.7.0, wiped all and fresh flashed ROM and OpenGApps Pico and all's good so far.
Ugh...still got a black screen. I'll try without installing any apps or having or root enabled.
Delete.
I am gonna try this weeked. Any idea which build is the most stable?

I think all the most recent builds are the same - he hasn't made any new commits to GitHub at least not as of yesterday. He tried getting the camera working, but it still doesn't for me, it FCs.
That said, be very careful and slow in setting it up and installing. I don't know why I always have trouble with CM builds on this tablet (sudden black screen requiring a long power button press to force off and back on, sometimes just suddenly it soft reboots - starts immediately with the CM boot logo, not a full reboot). I used the latest build and OpenGApps this time, I had a reasonably full gambit of my apps installed and set up, CM's built-in root enabled in Developer options, but I didn't have Xposed installed this last time and it still went black screen later yesterday.
So I went into full-process-of-elimination mode. I had all the files I needed on internal storage, but also on the MicroSD card, I installed his TWRP v3.0 M5 for the VK810, wiped all again including internal storage this time, and only flashed the ROM. Then I shut down the tablet from TWRP's reboot menu, ejected my MicroSD card which is formatted ExFAT and his TWRP doesn't like anyway, although it's always worked fine itself in both CM and in the stock ROM, and I've left it like that since last evening and it hasn't black screened.
Next I'll probably flash OpenGApps and then leave it sit for a day to see if it does anything. Oh yeah, when i tried flashing OpenGApps from his TWRP I don't think it worked right so I might have to either downgrade to someone else's TWRP v2.8.7.0 or try FlashFire to flash GApps.
I'll continue like this in patient stages so that I can notice when it starts black screening again. I haven't touched any settings in Android yet, not even enabled the built in root. I might flash SuperSU from TWRP instead this time though, once I get around to it.
Good luck! Let us know how it works for you!

So the CM (CyanogenMod) 13 is the same as Android 6.0 Marshmallow?
EDIT:
I just flashed the CM13 Unofficial zip for VK810 in TWRP v2.8.7.0 and my tablet is now stuck in bootloop. It shows the Android for a minute then goes to blank screen.

Whenever I wipe the data/cache from TWRP, it wipes the OS because it says afterwards there is no OS installed.
If I follow these instructions, do they also take me to Android 6.0 Marshmallow? http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg...t-install-t3283027/post64577888#post64577888

I don't know what's going wrong for you. Wiping Cache, Dalvik/ART and Data never wipes the OS on any device for me. You have to wipe those things before booting a new ROM, especially when going from stock LG ROMs to CyanogenMod/non-stock ROMs, or the ROM won't boot or work right.

No. This is the only Android 6.0 I've noticed for the VK810. My thread you referenced deals with stock LG ROMs, and there is no stock Marshmallow for the VK810, only Lollipop 5.0.2 which runs laggy, and is why I'm running 24A KitKat instead.

This goes to show how different devices act differently. My tab was real laggy on kitkat, but on lollipop it's been pretty smooth. I'm counting on you for some marshmallow action! lol

Absolutely! (different people's devices acting different with the same model). Of course, I've hardly been using my tablet at all and only have a couple dozen maximum apps installed, and I have severely debloated the stock stuff. Who knows. Make sure and gives thanks to @invisiblek, he's the one developing CM13 for the VK810 - I just created the thread. Since it's not mine is why I created it in the General section and since it's just a pretty much an announcement thread.

I wiped the Cache, Dalvik, and Data and flashed the CM13 Unofficial ROM. It takes me all the way to Starting Preparation/Optimization Completed and reboots and gives me a dark screen and doesn't get past the blue android and gets stuck in boot loop.

One or two other users had problems with the latest builds too. I had problems with builds from a couple of weeks back, as you can read in this thread, but not that problem. That's part of the trouble with CM, it takes a long time (and effort of the person doing the compiler, or others who submit commits to the device-specific source code) to iron out bugs. People have other troubles with CM13 on the LG G3, too.
I liked stock debloated Lollipop but it would just get so slow for me eventually - I used it for a year or so. I hope it works better for you.

Is there any other way to get past this when flashing CM13? Sorry, I probably asked this before but I really want to be able to use this on my (VK810) device.

I've told you everything I know about it. I wish it worked better too, but I'm not in control of it, @invisiblek is most likely busy with lots of other things. The only other solution is for you to learn how to compile, debug and fix source code. I've never done any of those things.

All Z1 bugs

Hi All,
I have bought about 20 Z1 devices from my company (customers returned and Service Dept. cannot fix them)
I open all of them (LCD, Battery, Mainboard) then play LEGO game
After that, half of them can work Only some have problem like:
- SIM not work
- WiFi not work
- Fingerprint not work
- Home not work
- LCD have some yellow area
After working with them and having a look at all topics in this sub, I make a note about some common ZUK Z1 bugs that may help anyone have same issue with me
1. Battery issue
- Phone work normally but sometimes auto reboot
- Phone show incorrect % battery
It's time to think about replacing a new one, I have bought from China with about 7$ (including ship fee to Vietnam)
You can buy battery like origin or D.Seven name like me
2. Fingerprint/Home key
- If home key cannot work then your key may be dead
- If home key still work, only fingerprint not work, update below file via TWRP (I already test on 7.x, with stock ROM, I have finger, but update to Nuclear 7.x, it dissapeared then I update 7x below file and it's OK)
-- Android 6.x: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533103863141329 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z1/development/mod-restored-fingerprint-touch-t3262388)
-- Android 7.x: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120705241 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z1/help/fingerprint-menu-disappeared-t3411565)
3. WiFi/Bluetooth
If you cannot turn on WiFi/Bluetooth (WiFi MAC address starts with 02:00:00:00:00:00) then they can be dead
I've read a topic about this but I forgot link
4. Bootloop
- I have 2 devices with bootloop issue
- I use QFIL to flash China ROM then it can pass bootloop (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347826528)
- Dev. option of this ROM does not have Update Cyanogen recovery option so I cannot flash TWRP via flash then I use QFIL to flash
- After that I can flash cm-13.0-20160416-NIGHTLY-ham.zip (6.x) but flash CM14 or higher will have bootloop issue again
- You can follow this link to download flash tool, driver, guide changing Chinese language to English,... http://www.tech-and-dev.com/2016/06...ing-to-marshmallow-zui-lenovo-zuk-z1.html?m=1
Update:
- Both above device can update to 7 with ZUI 2.5 https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767156988
- One of them can flash NucleaRom-V2.1.5-OFFICIAL[7.1.2]-ham-20170716-2114 https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=889764386195916500 (this is one of the best ROM that I've known
5. Flash NucleaROM 7x, lost accelerometer and fingerprint (use stock ROM, both sensors work normally but update to NucleaROM 7.x will lost both of them)
Up to 6.x then 7.x
Another case
- Flash China ROM first by QFIL: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347826528
- Flash TWRP
- Flash ZUI 2.5 by TWRP: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767156988
- Flash NucleaROM 7.x (lastest is 2.1.9 https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=961840155545588772)
6. FRP pass (Require last Google account after reset/flash)
Too many steps but can pass (if you cannot turn dev. options, you can pass this step)
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3tMoleAMkoU&t=182s
I still have issues that need to find. Pls help if you already in that case
Not detect SIM (I also heard this issue on XDA)
Update: One device can detect SIM2 after flash 7.1.2 but after few hour it cannot??? so strange)
Cannot flash CM14 or higher ROM with some devices
Update: 1/2 devices with bootloop can flash higher ROM by flash ZUI 2.5 first

Currently using Lineage 14.1 (Nightlies). But the problem was there when I was using stock rom. Problem is still not solved after flashing lineage 14.1

What is your stock ROM version?
Below is stock ROM that Lenovo ZUK Z1 team send to Vietnam for testing and using for mass production (I'm responsible for testing)
You can try flashing it with QFIL and hope that your issue will be fixed (if not, I'm afraid it's HW issue)

You can flash 6.x or 7.x firmware in item 2 above (depend on which version that you are using) then you can have fingerprint back

After that:

- Flash 6.x ROM
- Flash 7.x ROM
I did the above steps.
In stock rom when I chose fingerprint it automatically completes it and when I try to do it second time it just keeps on vibrating till I switched it off.
Then I flashed cm13 rom (6.0.1) and fingerprint option is not present. Now I flashed nuclearom (7.1.2) and again no option.

Because i'm new , i can't create link
Hi gapps included in ur ROM?
And can I install other boot.img files? I have tried that.
I know it won't work but a question..
Still will download and test..
---------- Post added at 07:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 AM ----------
Almost everything works except Volume control while calling the same problem on 17.1 ROMs but everything else works fine I can just adjust volume from my file I'll just patch it with profile text lol thanks.. Very nice work ??????☎?
Yup this is my other account here.
and only on my laptop..
But i managed to get my favourite Kernel to be installed thanks to this beautiful work and kernel i installed is enforced and my ( favourite Kernel )
is pemissive so it depends on kernel and i don`t give a f... nice work man.. Thanks..
I can`t say thank you enough because i have tried other roms to get my thing install`d lol THANK YOU..
Are there any issues with audio on incoming or outgoing calls? Did you manage to get both the front and back cameras working? Most other custom roms have a combination of issues there.
EDIT: I just noticed Johannes did mention a call volume issue
add support 925f zeltexx pls

It has that same sound software problem.
But I think everything else is working. I try to restore boot from my previous backup it works but (sim not showing).
I try to restore other backup stuff but, of course did not working.
But it amazing i can use other kernel just by restoring from backup
They might be better ways to use other Rom's kernel.
I will use it like that soon without any possibility to have Sim card
I like my kernel lol..
This phone ( I ) use is near death so let end it Battery life with that Kernel I use... Lol
I'll test permissive only file download soon and try to restore boot from backup. And see
Or I should try to install Boot.img from the zip
Edit: It didn't work but first with enforcing SE always boot up no matter what i restore from my backup boot/cache/data/efs. I didn't test other rom enough yet.
And I will test more soon for fun..
Btw.. I got 3 mods installed on my backup so I'm gonna have to test new install's from all rom's and re-test from all over.. Or from start lol..
I want to know you guy's have any mods to make system faster or battery-friendly mods
I have added some text to build.prop and installed 3 mods I think. Maybe not all installs patches:
First for Fullscreen Gesture (Q) from Magisk modules.
Because my ROM is old and I removed some system apps.
And then I install kernel mod from this site. Lol (kTweak) it can be seen from Magisk
And 1 patch from here XDA post few days ago
And my build.prop tweak it looks funny:
ro.min_pointer_dur=0
ro.max_pointer_dur=40
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=9000000000
windowsmgr.min_events_per_sec=0
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=60
debug.sf.nobootanimation=1
logcat.live=disable
ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100
profiler.force_disable_err_rpt=1
profiler.force_disable_ulog=1
ro.mot.eri.losalert.delay.delay=1000000000
ro.kernel.checkjni=0
ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0
persist.android.strictmode=0
ro.config.nocheckin=1
That it if I didn't forget something
And make Settings less cpu hog or how to say make it CPU friendly lol .
1 more thing I have edited Sound mixer from System files
You can search it on my comments on my other account Johannes Davidsen
On Enezusun's 17.1 Lineage Os Multitarget rom
I couldn't post attachment's so I have to copied text
That all.
Here, there are 3 sections i think : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=83187603&postcount=310
This ROM has still the sound volume issues, but camera is working here, right?
This one https://github.com/enesuzun2002/lineageos-ota/releases (28. Feb build) has working call volume and also working cameras, right?
The 13. April build of it has sound issues again and fast battery drain?
It's hard to keep track of what's working in each ROM build and what's not.

I have exactly the same problem. And are there any other things to do to make the device even more secure? Some Modules ?

My dirty trick to enable encryption was, I installed e rom for the device. Enabled encryption without a pin direct after the installation.
Than I installed the 17.1rom without format data. Only wipe system, data and the caches. The rom boot up allready encrypted.
I only set a pin and thats it.
hello or a little problem with the download link, just don't have the link, can you try s create a link on mega or google drive ???
to another thing i wanted to say, i am surprised that you are creating a rom for android 10 with the SElinux Enforcing, i wanted it a lot to increase the security, but the problem of this that lead to lose some battery, however i am interested to try this rom on my samsung galaxy s6 SM-920F i just have to understand where the link lol.
in my opinion, however, thanks to the rom with the SElinux Enforcing maybe this rom could become official if you want, and put on the lineage os website, but honestly I don't know how it works, this is just my opinion
I wanted to say another thing, that second it was better to do lineage os 16.1 because it is much more stable for this device, in fact existing official resurrection remix with android 9 that I use that not a bug, or tried official evolution x with android 10 but the problem of the wi fi that turns off and that you can disable it on the lock screen, and this and these 2 are a big problem, and that problem also exists in the lineage os 17.1 of another creator, everything to see if in the future when there will be lineage os 18.1 for this device with android 11 maybe the wi fi and lock screen security will work prevent you from turning off the wi fi from the lock screen
i am using google translator, hope the translation is right

A wipe basically formats a partition, so what exactly do you mean, that you wiped the encryption too?
I'm sure this ROM doesn't support whatever encryption /e/ may support that you're suggesting.
But maybe I've got this all wrong

Hi, i just wanted to ask how you compiled lineageos for the s6. I tried to compile los 17.1 with the files provided by enesuzun and have massive problems with lunch detecting the files. Many are missing and even if i collect all it just acts weird. Since enes provided many working images these file should work to compile, don't they? Do you know any good tutorial? Most of them are only either for official builds or completely new unsupported devices.
Thank you in advance.

What gapps? opengapps is provided for 10.0 only...
I have LOS 16.0 from enes but wanted to give it a try.
After wiping (system, cache, data) and installing this rom with opengapps 10.0 and magisk zips,
the reboot stucked in boot loop.

For LOS 16, which is Android 9, you have to use the OpenGApps for Version 9. You can download them at the OpenGApps Project Homepage.
Try one step at a time when flashing or try the newest version from enes.

This is unbelievable, this device gets A11 all the way up from A4. This is history. Thanks @tarkzim bro. There are some devices you want to keep because, it has a long list of memories with it. I'm going to flash it.
I also request you to consider a double tap to wake and a reboot/recovery/power Quick tile for this device as power button is near eol. The earlier los17.1 dev did integrate these features , unfortunately his device got Bricked.

Thanks for that very essential advanced reboot hope. Meanwhile, I checked CTS profile. I don't know if there's a fix for that, but if there's one then NFC of this device coupled with Google pay in India will have a contactless, payment system in India.
Even this menu from the accessibility like icon near the navigation button in paranoid android in my poco f1 is a nice feature to save hardware buttons. I don't know the name thought.

Installed the much awaited Dt2w version and working fine. Dirty flashing resulted in rebooting back to recovery. I had to wipe both system and data to get the rom running. System partition was formatted to f2fs and is running fine.
With the mentioned changes, safety net has passed, but I didn't want to root the device in first instance. Hope that with advanced reboot on cards and safetynet and other issues sorted out in future builds, rooting could be avoided.

How to install TWRP recovery?
I have a recently bought Xiaomi Mi 3W at home with stock everything. No modification was done after buying. How can I install a custom recovery (like TWRP) on it? From where should I start the process?
Can anyone please help?
It says,
Android version: 6.0.1 MMB29M
Android security patch level: 2017-06-01
MIUI version: MIUI 9 Global 8.3.1 | Beta
Kernel version: 3.4.0-gf4b741d-00690-gc8911e2
-You need adb and fastboot (installed correctly on your PC. Like minimal adb and fastboot app)
-You need turn on Developer options on your phone. And also turn on USB debugging on.
-ok. Then you need a DOS-box (command prompt) on your pc, in adb and fastboot folder
-then type on DOS-box "adb devices" if pc see your phone, then you will see a new message on your phone. Accept it.
-then type "adb reboot bootloader" and your phone will rebooting to fastboot mode
-then type "fastboot devices" if your pc see correctly your phone, you will see your phone in DOS-box. for example:
"fastboot devices 65eft4e2"
-the type "fastboot reboot" and your phone will reboot to normal mode
This is first lession. If you made this steps, write, and I will give you next steps.

Battery backup at 4% - latest (dt2w) build. The battery is the original 6 years old one though. Taking a screenshot is cumbersome for me, I'm too much used to 3 finger swipe. Perhaps this build is intended for gaining a official status so don't know whether 3 finger swipe gesture will be incorporated by @tarkzim bro.
Can't boot on Xiaomi Mi 4W (cancro)
It shows boot animation then goes straight to TWRP on my Mi 4W. I have done the installation steps properly (wiped system, data, cache).
This also happened when I installed Android 10 last time. But I fixed it somehow I don't remember. Please reply if you have the same issue and know how to deal with it.

I faced the issue till I wiped data. Since you've done that, only thing left is "format data" which will ask for a Yes confirmation and your internal storage will be wiped out. You might need to flash the room from a external USB flash drive. So before that option check out whether your USB port is detecting the flash drive in recovery.
@tarkzim - I observed that once my ? battery had drained out fully and the phone got switched off all by itself, I put the phone on charging. There was no charging animation. It was stuck on mi logo, but it charged to 98%. By this time the phone was quite hot. Even after plugging it out, it continued to be stuck in mi logo. I had to hard press the (almost defective power button) for quite some time to get it booted. It's working fine now.
