Great time and thanks for the hard work!!!!
One thing annoying with room is if you work with it all is fine, hover there are slow screen openings when returning from sleep mode. So if the screen is off and you open it , sometimes apps UI is stock for 2-5 seconds and the gets released.any app, phone, WhatsApp or camera.
Hope that can be fixed. I'm with f2fs file system.

Hi, i'm using this ROM since it was launched on 4PDA, but it has some random lags. I read that it happens because the kernel, that with Nosgoth v2 Treble it is fixed and all is smooth. Do you have the link for that kernel? I tried to download from that forum, but the link is down (like almost everything there).
Thanks for sharing!

Can somebody here know how to root? I tried to install Magisk and it goes into bootloop.

I already found it. But when I try to install this Kernel, TWRP 3.2.1-0 Treble tells me that the zip format is invalid. Is it because the version of TWRP? It is the only one I could find for Treble ROMs. Anyone knows what can I do?

Hi, i'm noob with this. The format data (f2fs / ext4) can improve the performance on a ROM? I'm actually on this ROM on 06.03.18 version, i'm going to update to the new 06.06.18, do I need to change my format data to a specific one for a better performance? Do you have any kernel with this ROM to improve this? Thanks!

Best rom so far expet for one thing: why is it extremely slow? I have to change the kernel? Thanks a lot

Wifi does connect, but everytime i restarted it will not auto connect and require wifi password everytime i reboot, other than that smooth.
---------- Post added at 07:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ----------
In addition to above problem i mention. if i turn off wifi i won't be able to turn on unless restart.
Okay...I am pretty sure it is the problem of the kernel
Somehow i used the N kernel you gave davecotefilm, and the wifi is working now..XD I am a happy man. The only problem is the message that pop up at boot, "Kernel is not Seandroid Enforcing"

That justs means the kernel is set to permissive. Personally, i think its better that way.
The rom is lack of simplified chinese characters. Is there a ways to fix it too?
---------- Post added at 03:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 AM ----------
Oh my god, i fixed it lol..XDD i am just pure lucky. I replaced this file in fonts SECHans-Regular.otf taken From MM rom.
Also fixed all the symbol error like pounds "£"
New rom repacked let me know if better or worse I'll give it one more shot if its worse lol, but am waiting for N for our devices just like you. Just wanted the community to feel Nougat that wasn't Chinese firmware. I'm waiting for the release too so I can update the Lineage 14.1 drivers and ramdisk and kernel. I'm afraid if I do that now, a bit will change when its available via ota and make my work moot.
Enjoy
Thanks!

Hi @travis82, The rom works so far so good, just one question, why the samsung theme store is in Chinese, and it ask for phone, contact, and storage access. I flashed Dave's auroa N before yours, but I did format the data. so I'm wondering if the theme store is embended in the rom? And why the app's name displays in Chinese?
thanks,

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 9.0(Pie), which is 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. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Broken:
Sepolicy is still permissive
Nothing else
Working:
Camera (and flashlight)
WiFi
Bluetooth
Telephony (Calls and Data)
Audio (Record and Playback)
Video Playback
Sensors
GPS
VoLTE
Compatibility:
Compatible with all Xiaomi Redmi 4A and Redmi 5A variants (16GB / 32GB), other Redmi devices are not supported.
Builds are based off the Xiaomi's Android 7.1 firmware with proprietary blobs from MIUI 8.3.29 dev package.
Downloads:
LINK REMOVED BY MODERATOR
Notice:
No custom kernels are supported in this thread. Only stock kernel and official builds will be supported. No bug reports if that's not the case.
Installation:
Reboot to recovery (Custom TWRP recovery for Redmi 4A - Direct link)
Format /system, /data and /cache
Install LineageOS zip package
Install Magisk 16.4 For root permission
Install [optional] a Google Apps package of your choice (Open GApps is advisable, but stock and super variants are not recommended!!!)
Credits & collaborations:
This work is due to efforts from RedmiDevs founding members that did the full device bring-up. Huge thanks to @tEaM Tentacles for all the help during that bring-up.
Finally, all RedmiDevs & LineageOS team would like to thank everyone involved in helping with testing, coding, debugging & documenting! Enjoy!

Is it Gapps related bugs or rom related? In several unofficial Lineage 16 for other Redmi devices, most of the bugs are solved after the latest unofficial open gapps is released. 20th Aug build I believe.

When I tried booting into the phone pixel setup was not working and I could not enter in the phone
When I tried with out flashing gapps at first boot
The phone started and was good but all apps crash or force close
So practically if you want to know how android p will be u can use that for just seeing it
But currently you cant use it as daily driver
Nice port bro, good job <3
Please stop doing such misleading threads.

[9.0|PIE][SEMI-GSI]Pixel Experience 9.0 V3 [NOTE9/S9/S9+]

Pixel Experience ROM for the Galaxy S9+ and the Galaxy S9​
What is this?

Our mission is to offer the maximum possible stability and security, along with essential features for the proper functioning of the device
Based on Android 9.0

Semi-GSI? what's that?
a semi-gsi (at least by my own definition) is a gsi built from source, with heavy patches intended for a specific device that wouldn't make the gsi necessarily as universal as a gsi should be. so in terms: don't flash this on other devices.
How does this differ from any other gsis out there/what are the features?
Well this includes a number of fixes including:
Dual speakers are working.
Ui lag is no more (at least 99.99%).
Aod is working/enabled.
Auto brightness is kinda working.
MTP is working
Other performance fixes and improvments.
What's working/not working?
First up:
Obviously Samsung's own features such as Samsung Pay, KNOX, Theme Center, Game Launcher, etc. won't be ported to LineageOS Pixel Experience. We may have our own implementation to similar functions, though.
Iris sensor does not work because AOSP upstream does not support that yet.
IMS services (VoLTE, VoWiFi, etc). Samsung has their own proprietary implementation. It is not really possible to easily port that to LineageOS PixelExperience.

2ndly the semi-gsi has a few quirks of it's own. Nothing major or worth noting but you should check the "anything else i should know?" part in the FAQ. hence why HWC is broken
Instructions:
Make sure TWRP has been installed and functional.
Download the latest build image and kernel linked below
Reboot to recovery
Wipe system, data and cache from the wipe menu
Select flash image in twrp, lower right side on the install menu
Flash the rom image as system (and gapps). DONT flash gapps. they are already included in the rom.
Flash the kernel image corresponding to your model as boot
Reboot and enjoy :victory:

Troubleshooting/FAQ:
Q:Can i use any other kernels with this gsi?
A:Nah, not really. I built this kernel specifically to work with this gsi and it includes a few major fixes (for example mtp won't work,major ui lag, no dual speakers etc if you switch to another kernel. But again. If you want to use other kernels, they should* boot. Endurance kernel even has my dual speaker patch and i confirm as working. But again expect bugs.
Q: Is there anything else i should know?
A: Ehhhhhhh, not really. I mean there are some stuff i'm really not proud of,for example to "fix" the ui lag i had to set the minimum gpu frequency to 455; this shouldn't create any issues(perhaps some battery drainage when screen is on) but afaik it doesn't impact sleep or anything else.
Q: My mobile data (3G/4G) is not working
A: Go into network settings and select/create an apn
Q:Would this be preferred over a device specific rom?
A: Overall nah. The reason i didn't set on building device specific los16.....well actually i did and failed. But this is a pretty good placeholder until someone more skilled than me takes over and creates pie device trees.
Q: Safetynet doesn't pass?
A: Yeah, i guess that's a thing. Go into magisk and download some module called props hide or something. Don't forget to run it from terminal. It should work from there
Q: The rom isn't booting/camera doesn't work
A: Flash/make sure you have the BRI4 vendor, the linked kernel and try again.
Q: The rom is in a bootloop/google apps keep crashing
A: You did read the instructions and NOT flash any gapps riighhttt?? smh, wipe /system,/data and /cache and start over
Q: I have another bug; How can i tell it to you while slightly increasing my changes of it ever getting fixed.
A: You can tell me what's going on either here or on telegram WITH A LOGCAT attached(required);if rom isn't booting at all attach /proc/last_kmsg.
Q: I don't know what/how to logcat. Is it really necessary?
A: Logcat or gtfo
Q: How can i support you?
A: Awwww thanks; On most of my posts on the left side there's a "donate to me" paypal button; You can use that,donations are more than welcome, or if you don't have any $ to spare you can also post here about how awesome i am (this surprisingly helps very much)
Credits:
The lineageos team; device maintainers who did a wonderful job at creating device trees
The pixel experience team for creating the rom we so do enjoy
Many good people from the telegram group (linked above) that helped me create this project and spamming for etas

Last vendor from Soldiers rom. I flashed your kernel for the S9 to my S9. I also made a test and flashed Magisk, no difference.

Which model nr are you?
The ideal way of doing it was to have the latest vendor installed (i have BRI4 rn) wipe /system, /cache and /data. Flash just the system img and the kernel img and it should boot just fine. Can you try this?
So far so good. Recording video on my s9+ screen flashes green, stereo speakers work on SoundCloud but not with play music, still testing. Thanks

System_Image for the rom and Boot for the kernel.
I installed the latest Benzorom 9 and this works!
Than again your rom without your kernel, it goes than further, the Google boot animation doesnt disapeared, but cant boot into system.
So something must be wrong in the kernel for the 960F version.

Hmmmm. I'm not gonna lie, i haven't actually tested the g960 variant since i have the plus model but ok.
Has anyone with a small s9 booted the rom using the kernel?
EDIT: ok apparently the small variant is bootlooping, will delete the link and get back later
@Oel can you try this for the small s9 pls?
