Known issues:
- On some boots the camera may not be working. Simply reboot your phone to fix it.
How to enable encryption on the February build and newer:
- Data must be formatted. If you're using TWRP, click wipe and then format data
- Install the LineageOS zip
- Install the attached SetEncryption.zip
- Reboot and enjoy encryption
How to build from source:
I'm going to assume you've built LineageOS before and just describe the special steps
- Repo init with the LineageOS-UL sources here: https://github.com/LineageOS-UL/android
- Copy the attached roomservice.xml to .repo/local_manifests
- Sync the sources
- From the source root execute:
Code:
sed -i "s/.*TARGET_BUILD_UNBUNDLED.*/ifeq (0,1)/" build/make/core/tasks/platform_availability_check.mk
- If you want your builds to use encryption then run:
Code:
sed -i "s/latemount/latemount,fileencryption=adiantum/" device/moto/shamu/rootdir/etc/fstab.shamu
- cd to frameworks/opt/net/ims and run git apply path_to_attached_Ignore-SubId.patch
- DO NOT use an existing vendor repo . You must run ./extract-files.sh on the latest build I've provided
- Build as normal
Kernel Source: https://github.com/rootfan/android_kernel_moto_shamu
Special thanks to:
- LineageOS team
- Elektroschmock, npjohnson, and anyone else who has worked on shamu in the past
- abhishekt295 and wavedashdoc for getting IMS to work on android 10
- tarkzim and khalvat for their work on the LineageOS-UL project

Enjoy android 13 on the Nexus 6

bravo!!!!!!!

any build plan for angler?

Which gapps to use with this build?

---

Hey, I'm here to do some reports.
My last OS is Mokee based on Oreo 8.1 and I flashed this from with TWRP 3.1.1-0.
When the first time I try to flash it notices that "This package is for shamu, and your device is [empty]." So I removed the asserts check from update-script and I made it this time.
Here are my steps to flash this:
1. Reboot into recovery, wipe data.
2. Wipe data, davlik, system, data, and cache.
3. Flash the rom
4. Format data
5. Reboot
Now it is stuck in the loop of lineage os boot animation. Any suggestions?

---

I happen to come across this thread and just had to poke my head in here real quick and say "hell yeah! ' " Long live the Nexus!! "I always like it when I see a Nexus still getting current rom love. I had all of the Nexus devices.
Those were the days!!

I used BiTGApps-arm-13.0.0-v1.4_signed.zip. I did dirty flash to lineage-19.1-20220919-UNOFFICIAL-shamu. lineage-20.0 booted without any problem.
MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm-20221007_211145.zip may be used instead.

Be patient. Release 20.0 is very early. Take a look at >chengelog<. Work continues, including on the camera.

Just reboot your phone and then the camera should work fine.

@rootfan
Thanks for your work !
I was feeling adventurous this morning so I tried to build with your repos
To do so I've gotten to adding the following lines to my roomservice.xml
XML:
<project path="kernel/moto/shamu" remote="github" name="rootfan/android_kernel_moto_shamu" revision="los-20.0" />
<project path="device/moto/shamu" remote="github" name="rootfan/android_device_moto_shamu" revision="los-20.0" />
<project path="vendor/motorola" remote="github" name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_motorola" revision="lineage-18.1" />
<project name="LineageOS/android_hardware_sony_timekeep" path="hardware/sony/timekeep" revision="lineage-18.1" />
but build is failing with
Code:
FAILED:
build/make/core/main.mk:1308: warning: device/moto/shamu/lineage_shamu.mk includes non-existent modules in PRODUCT_PACKAGES
Offending entries:
nfc_nci.bcm2079x.default
build/make/core/main.mk:1308: error: Build failed.
12:15:32 ckati failed with: exit status 1
--> What am I missing ?
I noticed you also have a android_frameworks_opt_telephony repo, but I have not used it as your initial post suggests only kernel source and device tree repos are necessary. --> Is it also required ?
Lastly, do you plan on merging the shamu: Kang DRM from angler commit that make NEtflix work again !
Looking forward to testing this on my shamu

Try to track this in your manifests, maybe it will work.
GitHub - LineageOS/android_hardware_broadcom_nfc
Contribute to LineageOS/android_hardware_broadcom_nfc development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
Furthermore，resync @rootfan 's repos for 20.0 branch when he make it up-to-date.

Can someone kindly confirm GPS works on this build? I have LinOS 20 on another phone (admittedly an ancient Sams. Note 2) and the GPS works but very sluggish. All else works fairly well.
On my Nexus 6, I have the well-cared for LinOS 18.1 and GPS is very quick- the whole ROM is rock solid. I can of course make a recovery copy but just want to know what to expect as this is still my daily driver. Some of the rebooting & charging issues also make me a bit uneasy. I know it is still early days and am only grateful for rootfan's efforts.
What have any of you lab rats (just kidding) experienced so far specifically regarding GPS with this 20 ROM on a nav map system e.g. Organic or Google Maps? Thanks

That got me to the next issues .
tons of warnings turned to errors (found how to bypass that) as -Werror compile option is set
kernel includes not found by other projects
Seems rootfan's modification's are not up to date or all available on his github. Will check from time to time and see if updates become available.

Took the plunge as I can quickly and easily revert back to rock solid LOS18 if nec. with TWRP backup. So..
Unlocked phone and SIM card, dirty flashed ROM, BitGaps 1.6, Magisk 24.3s.....
Whole installation, a few reboots, some App checking, took like 10 Min. Dirty flash saves hours of re-confiuring and reinstalling files and apps. YMMV but as I am fully backed up, it was well worth a try.
All seems just fine. Banking apps, travel, cars etc. all good. My Open Camera app, and the built in Camera all sans problems. Even kept some deep Magisk modules. Will have to watch for a few days re GPS, notifications, battery life. It is slightly less smooth than LOS18 but can easily live with it, and it may improve over time. Have asked trusted wingman to also try and monitor.
@rootfan Nice one; hope you'll keep supporting and updating this great work.

---

Thank you @rootfan for bringing new up to date life to Shamu . Really amazing to see android 13 on it !

Just a heads-up. Reporting, not complaining.
I followed @esysfound in dirty flashing my N6, and it looked good, but today I've booted from cold and I'm in a bootloop - the LOS circles have been running for a while with occasional reboots. No problem - (a) I knew dirty flashing isn't reliable and (b) I can restore my OrangeFox 19.1 backup.
Just in case anyone is thinking of trying a dirty flash...
