Microg and Ubuntu touch - LG G5 Questions & Answers

Does anyone know of LOS 16 microg or Ubuntu touch for this phone? The latest los with microg is 15 that I could find. I'd be happy to spin up an los 16 with microg if there is an interest. Same with Ubuntu touch or omissions. Let me know

I would be very interested in a newer build of lineage with microg. I don't know about ubuntu touch or other things like that because I have never tried any of them but los microg would be great. I just came back to the G5 community after switching between many newer phones so I was pretty happy to see that there is a chance of a newer version.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll update this thread after I post a build of Los with microg in a day or two. I have built los with microg for my Motorola and it works great, so hopefully this one will too!

European h850. Also i'm just wondering why los 16 when there is already 17? Is there some kind of problem with 17 that would cause issues?

Depends on available sources, e.g. kernel, vendor, etc and working functionality. 17 is still a work in progress... I'm starting with 16 and then will move onto 17.

First build for h830 complete. Going to make some more changes today and rebuild. Once I get the kinks worked out, I'll also release for 850. Also found out that location isn't fixed in microg and android 10 so until they fix that backend in microg, better to stay with 9.

Any development towards AOSP ROMS running Nougat for the Honor 5X?

I'm not asking for a working rom right this day, week, or month but I am wondering if anyone is anyone at least trying to do such a thing for this device. I don't know how this sortof thing works for this phone, I've only just gotten it this month. I know with some phones, its crucial for it to have certain updates on phones in order to proceed. Like to get AOSP Lollipop rom , the stock rom has to have Lollipop. It'd be much appreciated if someone could answer my question, but its not crucial to me.
I'm also aware that Huawei has promised updates to this phone and it's upcoming honor and regular devices from this year in terms of EMUI.

In my opinion nougat and oreo are the most unexciting Google OS I know. It's nice to have, but half of the first year after release devs on XDA and even Google itself trying to bring back the performance or/and battery life the OS version before had.
Not to mention the problems with Magisk etc.

I suppose you're right. Neither Nougat or Oreo have brought significant changes, they have both been 'minor' updates with subtle changes to improve certain aspects of the OS. The last major update to Android was Lollipop, when the entire appearance was drastically overhauled from previous versions. I'm only excited because we just have to take what we're given, and any update to update the appearance and usability of Android after an entire year is a refreshing change! Even though Nougat was only a small update, it feels unbearable to me when switching back to Marshmallow without the new quick settings swipe-down; the one before the entire notification area appears. So even the small features can make a lot of difference to the overall experience! I'm still really looking forward to seeing the changes made in Oreo for myself when it comes to the Axon 7.

I don't get why people say this, honestly. Just because you didn't get a visual overhaul like you got from KitKat to Lollipop doesn't mean there weren't significant changes. Visually the OS is already at a level where there's no need for a major change (it has been "ready" since Lollipop, imo; Marshmallow, Nougat, and Oreo have all had small visual tweaks but have stuck to the Material language), and most of the tweaks work "under the hood." Oreo will bring Project Treble, which may just be the most significant change in Android in the last few years. It also brings improvements on the behavior of notifications and background services or apps. It's an incremental update, yes. But it's by no means a small update.
@Gases
We talked about excitement.
I mentioned the problems with the new OS updates, which brings maybe more security but also many problems to custom ROMs. Furthermore there are more problems in the first months. I don't need visual tweaks.
Project treble is mainly positive for stock ROMs. We will see, in which way custom ROMs can profit of this new feature.
Background battery eating apps are no problem on custom ROMs based on LOS, if you use the internal features or external apps. But again. It's nice to have already implemented.
Finally I am always thankful for all kind of ROMs and kernels devs provide to the community. And I was always someone who donated to say 'thank you'

I am not the dev but this is probably more a promotion thread. Final builds will surely be on developement thread.
Some devs are working on oreo right now.
Let's wait and be thankful for their work.
Here is a small update about the situation. Since the most common stuff is working im going to release this rom in 1-3 days. But don't expect to much. This rom is still WIP.
Working now:
RIL(Calls, Sms)
Audio
Most of the stuff (NFC etc.)
Broken:
Camera
Fingerprint
VoLTE (Will be probably broken until we get new blobs)

Probably since they just got audio to work and the ROM is very experimental.

I was just looking over in the Nexus 6 forms and to overcome the camera issue for them they had to upgrade from 7.1.2 - 8.0 and then restart the phone. So there is hope especially since the Nexus 6 is a 32-bit phone and I'm pretty sure 8.0 was supposed to be 64-bit.

Oreo is here!!! H870

Jusy casually checking my phone and BOOM! Can't wait to finish downloading ?
You are about a week late to the party....
Yet my H870 hasn't got it yet...
H870 for South America has not received the update yet.
Took an age but just downloaded Oreo. Will update after a few days of use!
Wife's H870 updated yesterday evening. I updated mine manually a few hours before using LG Bridge (I was on Fulmics 4.2, so it didn't want to OTA itself).

After almost a month's worth of use, I'm not noticing any difference in performance. Admittedly I'm still running the ROM with as many different things disabled/restricted due to the battery drain issue I had running Nougat. I'll have to see about performing a factory reset and see how well it performs.
Will keep you posted

That is incredibly stupid. It's like they didn't bother fixing the bigger more complex issues possibly that they're not competent enough to do so. Those issues being an encryption problem that occurred during beta testing where some beta testers that updated over OTA from nougat to Oreo were stuck at an "to start android, enter password (or pin)" and the only way out was to factory reset. If they didn't fix that, then they didn't fix the overheating and battery drain issues. Disappointed.

Agreed, releasing an update that removes features. If we wanted a ROM that didn't function 100%, then we might as well stay on custom ROMs. Better off doing so in some cases.
Seems this is only for those who don't know how or don't want to learn how to install custom ROMs on their phone.
I know that's pretty obvious, it's just a shame.
Removal of daydream would be a good trade if it did something like help improve battery life and performance. Both of these were already good enough on stock nougat though. Battery was terrible in the oreo beta from what everyone reported

I installed it from SD. Had to go buy one though because I never used one ...anyway...tried installing using ADB and that will NOT work. Installed just fine from SD. This is only my backup phone so I did not set it up completely to mirror my daily driver, but it looks good. The default launcher is OK. I regularly use Nova Prime. Everything I tried worked great. I do not use Daydream or anything like that so no loss for me.

I'm sorry, but this long and we get that? This indeed has left a bitter taste in my mouth.

lineage 16 official

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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
