Hi guys, I need some help.
I had my LG G5 running on stock Oreo, and all was fine. Since Lineage now also supports this device, I didn't hesitate to flash lineage-17.1-20200408-nightly-h850-signed.zip (officially unlocked bootloader, twrp-3.3.1-0-h850.img installed).
Although the flash went smooth I noticed that none of the device sensors (apart from the temp-sensors) are working, including the camera's.
I went back to stock Oreo and the phone was perfectly working again; I redid the Lineage-flash and the same problem occurred.
Any ideas?
flash first 15 ...check for the sensors ..then flash 16 check for sensors ...then 17
There is no los 15 or 16 for the LG G5.
But my LG V20 has the same issue: fine on stock, no sensors on current los 16 &17.
But you gave me an idea: for the LG V20 there are 15.1 images out there.
And th result is fine: at last/least I have the phone running on Android 8.
I'll test again when new official 17.1 images are out.

I'm sorry, I was being a jerk. LOS 15 and 16 do exist for the G5, but they are UNOFFICIAL, which means they are not listed on Lineage website. Please have a look in the ROMs section of this forum. You will surely find those.
Camera not working is a common issue on LOS17.1, they are still ironing out some bugs. My suggestion would be to use LOS16, which is android 9 based but much more stable. Here is a link to it.
Please post any issues you're having with a specific ROM in that ROM's thread, and not in a separate section - that way other users using that ROM can confirm the bugs you're seeing and the developer can address them.
Happy flashing
OK, on unofficial 16 both my G5 & V20 are fine.
Let's wait several builds before trying official Los again.

Hi all,
I have a problem with the LG CAM Plus for LG G5 after installing Lineage 14.1. The unit will not be recognised and there is no way to use it as it is right now. Could any developer please look into this and make a bug fix.
Thank you so much..

According to the Official Lineage OS for LG G5 thread they do not support the LG Friends app and libraries required for the modules. So there is no bug to fix.
Also in future you would be better to ask the question on the official development thread so the right people see it.
Hey all,
I've just ordered a Le Max 2 from some mob in China. When it arrives in 2021 I hope to install a clean Oreo rom.
The problem is I'm new to all this jazz. I can follow a walkthrough successfully, and without killing the cat etc, but I don't know which walkthrough/guide to follow!
Is there a stock Oreo rom for the Le Max 2? Is 'stock' the right word here? I mean from Android/Google.
If not, is the Lineage rom ok?
I just want a clean phone, no crap installed, higher version of Android the better.
Also, I noticed a firmware page. Do I have to update my firmware first? Or after Rom installs?
thanks all

Hey. Welcome to the group.
There's no stock ROM for Oreo. We only have EUI 5.8/5.9 (Marshmallow). Lineage is okay, but as of now Oreo custom ROMs have bugs. One is low mic volume in calls, another is that you can't use Slow Motion Mode in modded GCam. In a new Oreo Custom ROM (Dirty Unicorn) it has GPS and Fingerprint bug, not sure about low mic volume but the Slow Motion Mode bug is still there (because of OSS HALs)
I suggest you flash Nougat if you want minimal bugs.
I think Marshmallow custom ROMs have no bugs at all (someone confirm) but the security patch is old.
You don't have to be on latest stock ROM, just flash the latest TWRP and start flashing ROMs.
Good luck!

Use google my friend flashing roms and learning about adb and fastboot is quite fun (well for me it is ). It's quite straight forward, you just need to have the proper software and drivers.
Lineage rom is good, it's updated quite frequently and most of the time has minimal bugs. go with nougat as my colleague suggested. Also i think it's ok to stay with just stock firmware Eui is quite nice i guys.
Just remember to backup everything and save it in a safe place before trying something for the first time If you are afraid of doing something and want a quick answer you can PM me, i will try to answer asap

What I can say from my personal experience. First, stock EUi is a crap. Also, abandoned, since LeEco company does not exist anymore. Second, 7.1 or 8.1? I would recommend Lineage 15.1 (Oreo 8.1). It's most stable for me. I found any other rom based on Lineage more buggy than stock Lineage 14.1 is stable too, but why to choose older Android?
Install procedure is pretty easy. You need to unlock bootloader, flash twrp, then flash rom + gapps, that's all.
BTW as you can see, there may be many opinions. But it's not risky to test various custom roms and choose the one that is the best for you. Don't hestitate to try many roms, it's not a pain at all. Actually, it's a fun.
Hi all,
I have unlocked my device and is currently running LineageOS 16 from OpenKirin. There are a few things which does not work, like the camera app that comes with the OS as well as the notch, where icons goes beyond the notch. Someone suggested I try the OpenKirin Rom and that is how I got that specific ROM on my device.
I was wondering are there maybe other ROMS for this device? Like the one's mentioned in the article below?
https://www.getdroidtips.com/best-custom-rom-huawei-p20-lite/
It took me a long while to get everything running on this device, Magisk and EdXposed. So I just don't want to go and wipe my OS just to try 4 ROMS that does not work. Sure you have app backup for that but it would mean doing everything over almost on the device.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also I am rather new to custom ROMS so please bear with me!

There is nothing like perfect Custom ROM. It is highly dependent upon the requirement of the user and his likes/dislikes. Every ROM has its importance and downsides. You can try flashing multiple ROMs to find the ROM which is suitable and best for you. There is no Custom ROM that is 100% bug free (it depends, among other things, on model, FW built number etc. etc.).
If you don’t prefer EMUI,* choose Havoc OS , AOSP Extended or LineageOS.
If you "hate" Google and Google's bloatware (like me ) only, you can simply rebrand your phone to chinese Nova 3e (among other things, better battery life, lower data consumption etc.)
Or, choose Custom ROM based on Stock with KangVip settings ( to get away from GAPPS) , stable enough to be used as your daily driver.
Availability of custom ROMs for Kirin devices is scarce.

Hi,
No i have not tried one of the recommended in that list i provided. It took me a very long time to get the phone unlocked! Then more bricks, soft and hard through the process :crying:
Magisk was not as hard to install but EdXposed was, and I also got my device stuck on a boot loop trying to get EdXposed to run. So yeah I took me a while to get it working.

If I currently have LineageOS 16 (Aug 2020 ver) can I use the AB partition? I presume so because the Android version currently is 9. I am looking to try HavocOS.
Thank you Alf man you have helped me a lot with all my questions!

AB or A-only depend on EMUI version : 9.1 = AB, 8.0 = A-only.

Don't bother trying any one of those ROMs listed in that post. I wasted a whole day trying to flash a ROM specified by that website. Look specifically for ROMs on XDA website.
I get more help here, and it has been tested already on our devices.

Hi from Sicily. With the unlock bootloader and TWRP I tried to install different Custom roms from Android 8 to 12.1 always encountering different problems (Dac HiFi missing, camera freezing, etc.). Desperate, I then reinstalled with LGUP the last available Oreo Stock Rom (H93022j_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0403.kdz) and found problems with the Camera "is not responding". So supplicant I ask you: is it possible to solve the problem of the Camera in the Stock? And better: what's a Custom (from 8 to 12.1) that works really well, with all the main functions (HiFi Dac, Camera, WiFi) like the Stock? Or, even a Custom that works with some small problems but solvable. Thanks in advance and sorry for my English. Claudio

When installing custom ROMs (Pie and above) to go back to stock successfully, you often have to first go back to Nougat stock, then update back to last Oreo. We found Pie custom ROMs "break" some stock functions when going back to Oreo.
Thanks, I would never be alone ...
So the step should be:
-H93010f_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0925.kdz (FirstNougatCustom) LGUP_Refurbish
-H93022j_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0403.kdz (LastOreoCustom) LGUP Refurbish
-H93031a_00_OPEN_EU_OP_1105.kdz (PieCustom) LGUP Fota kz.

Android 13 LineageOS 12 ROM

There's no guarantee nothing, don't use it if you don't know what you're doing!
SAVE your DATA before!
Make sure you have a custom recovery installed (TWRP is the preferred recovery. [I'm not using Fox recovery, I'm not going to give you advice.])
TWRP_SZANCSO.img is my work, included 4.9 kernel, included Midnight Commander (mc), fixed many factory bugs, working USB storage mode, and DT2W.
Boot into recovery
Wipe system, vendor, data, cache partitions to clean install.
(If your /data partition secured, maybe need format /data if you want to use this ROM.)
Flash Rom in TWRP (sideload or copy any storage)
Flash OpenGapps (Optional) [I'm not using GAPPS, I'm not going to give you advice.] (NOT TESTED!)
Flash Magisk Root (Optional) [I'm not using Magisk, I'm not going to give you advice.] (NOT TESTED!)
Reboot (If TWRP warn that there is no system, it doesn't matter, go reboot.)
First boot may take up to ~1-2 minutes.
DOWNLOAD
Known issues: -
Not tested: VOLTE, GAPPS, Magisk
Cool things:
-Include Midnight Commander (in adb)
-FM radio
-smart charging
-adb root
-24-25 days standby time (one charge)
-Enforced selinux
-Not encrypted
(I switched to this ROM from Ancient, it's terrible that some projects make many things mandatory (default encrypt, adb without root, etc.). It's sad that Open Source (AOSP) has come this far... They limit you like little kings... [email protected]!)
TWRP kernel source: LINK
OS source (XDA): LINK
ROM OS Version: 13

ROM info: 13, system_root partition, Android quota removed (easier to go back to earlier 7.x-11.x ROMs), NOT encrypted

I am not aware that it contains malicious code in the ROM, I have never put it in. This is a ported ROM, all its elements come from the Internet.

Hi szanalmas,
if you can please help me.
I have flashed lineage 20 to my Redmi Note 5A from the official site and I have these problems:
1. When I select the front camera I can only see a black screen. It seems that the camera works because I take photos which are totaly blacks.
2. The FM Radio does not work.
Both front camera and FM Radio worked properly and perfect with stock rom.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Sorry, I've never tried the "OFFICIAL" Lineage version, so I can't help you with that. It's pretty sad that it's so buggy.
I do not (and will not) use "retrofit antics" on my phone. The "retrofit" makes no sense in the case of ugglite.
My ported version is perfect for me.
(I don't even understand why ada12 is promoting it in this thread... It's pretty bad.)
