lineage 16 official - Nexus 6P General

I see los 16 has gone live for a few devices. Oddly enough the station klte has gotten it. I installed it on one of my s5s last night and just updated to the latest nightly. It runs excellent. But I wonder why the 6p wasn't included in this first round. Or the pixel XL. I know there are pie roms for the 6p I see them here but I also see the unoffical lineage 16 for the 6p hasn't had any progress at all thread is dead in the water. I hope that doesn't mean the 6p is being left out.
If it is can anyone tell me which one of the pie roms on xda are the most stable. The 6p is my wife's phone and she doesn't know how to deal with random issues. Los 15.1 was great for this phone I was hopping 16 would be too.

Keep it on Oreo for now. I have tried couple of Pie ROMs and they run pretty slow

---

Pretty sure there'll be official LOS16 for our devices. So waiting....

---

We just have to wait for a dev to pick it up and get it to spec for them to host it as official. I hope someone picks up the mantle as my Nexus 6P is still going strong and LineageOS 15.1 has been the best things to happen to it since I changed the battery.

current pie roms have major issues

Might want to specify why you have major issues, because this is misleading.
I've been on AICP 9.0 for a month and i have not had many, if any issues.

On the ROMs I tested, which were all based on Statix sources, I had these issues:
Battery life is a lot worse than stock/aosp/los;
Overall performance is worse than stock/aosp/los;
Phone gets hotter than in stock/aosp/los;
Camera doesn't work properly (sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't);
I'm about to install AICP Pie and give it a go.

I can't really comment on those builds because im too lazy to wipe my entire phone to go to fbe, but aicp has been working great for me. Sure the battery life is worse than 8.1 which is to be expected, but I haven't thought it was too bad.
The aicp guys have done a bunch of kernel work, sadly their newest build doesn't have the most up-to-date kernel, but I ran it for a few days, and the kernel still runs well. But I feel like the next build after the 3-5 one will be even better, since they remembered to push the kernel work back in.
The only ROM I've had huge battery issues with was aosip because for some reason the small portion of the kernel has its min freq set to 1200 instead of 380 or whatever the norm is, and setting the min lower doesn't stick well.
One way I got around this was using one of the savageone's custom kernels. He put out two test kernels that have both ran well for me based off of the common used fbe source staticx, and fde which wsd based off neo's source. Both kernels run about the same for me and work on either encryption type.

It's definitely work in progress. I see a topic "angler-p" on LineageOS gerrit. So people are working on it.
https://review.lineageos.org/q/topic:angler-p
Waiting patiently with baited breath for L16 to hit N6P. It's a match made in heaven! :fingers-crossed:

Anyone have any news on this?

The official lineage 16 as it seems will not happen most likely, development seems to be dead.

True dat, he should just change the thread name to official if his build is the official one, so people don't question about official build anymore.

And the new build is out

He isn't doing official builds. So why would they be called official?

Well as far as i'm concerned is it official or not, i don't really care, as long as it's good. He did say in one of his first post when he gave his first build something along the lines of this is a peek of the feature set of los 16 as it is official / feature complete. So does it make it official or not i do not know.

The los devs are very strict with how they run official builds, originally he had added the lock screen deals that would make it non official, since they have merged it, that would cover that, but he also messes with the kernels fstab thus making it non eligible.
I don't know all of the specifics of being a maintainer for them, but there are guidelines for the hals and blobs and **** they have to use as well.

agreeeed. Pie roms don't work well on the Nexus 6P. Oreo was the last stable operating system for the Nexus 6P, so of course pie roms won't work as well, and i've tried a lot of them.
To name a few: Pixel Experience, DotOS 3.0, StatixOS, AOSiP Pie Beta,[ Pie - 9.0.0_r37] AOSP , Ressurection Remix, AICP all these i've tried they all have this lagginess about them and they're not as snappy as the roms on Oreo ot stock Oreo for that matter.
And the brightness sucks on pie too.
I'm currently running LineageOS 15.1 runs like a dream on my Nexus 6P.
Not to take anything away from the developers of pie roms though, they're all doing fantastic jobs to keep our Nexus 6P's alive
