xt1805/g5s plus - fingerprint missing (LineageOS 18.1) - Moto G5S Guides, News, & Discussion

Yesterday i flashed this rom and everything works just perfectly, BUT...the fingerprint sensor is missing completely.
I remember running the Android 8 version of Lineage and found a fix for it for that particular version (don't remember where i found that one). Does something similar exist for the 18.1 Lineage?
(yes, typing in a pin every time gets boring after a while )

wrong forum, the G5s+ has its own forum, please use that instead

Resurrection Remix O v6 now available

A Treble based version of Resurrection Remix O v6 is now available.
See https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/development/rom-t3753555
Wow. It is really a good news to have RR Rom . However it is for Honor, or it will also support Mate 10(Pro) like lineage 15.1? does xposed, magisk work on it? can not wait for flashing it. I use RR Rom for my previous Oneplus 3T for a long time and it is really a fantastic ROM.
It's treble, so it should work.

99.9% if not 100% of what's working on the Honor View 10 is working on the M10pro.
Can anyone tell me if dual camera works on all of those treble roms out there? Or is it possible to just install apk of stock camera on such rom? That's my only concern to try them.
I think the Lineage based ROMs (which includes RR) currently have problems running the stock camera app.
However, on the treble AOSP you can install it yourself, while the OpenKirin's AOSP https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-view-10/development/rom-t3753603
already comes with a version of the stock camera app.
Edit: you can probably make it work on LineageOS, see: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...-camera-app-treble-roms-t3735169/post75685083

I haven't personally, but I would advise holding out on doing any OS changes for a bit as Huawei is doing/changing something with their xloader's in their rom and it's causing quite a few bricks. I'd figure out which xloader you're using first, and deciding if it's worth it to go to another rom before eventually making your return back and to a possible brick.

Hey guys,
I guess this is interesting for a bunch of you.
I flashed RR-O v6.0.0 20189492 bkl OpenKirin on my Mate 10 Pro (blanc) BLA-L09 8.0.0.128(C55) taken from getroidtips.
I was screwing arround with my phone, got it soft-bricked (StockRom and Lineage wouldn't work anymore) and RR was the only thing getting it to work. So at this point I am more or less forced to use it.
Generally, I am very happy with it. After a fresh boot, I have about 2.5-2.7GB of the RAM used, which is decent. Systemapps are working fluent and without major problems (a small buglist is appended below). However, sometimes the phone locks up for a few seconds (opening and closing the taskmanager returns the phone back to normal).
However, there are a few things that are not working!
- WLAN hotspot: I am able to create a hotspot (so it is visible from a PC), I can even connect to it, but the phone doesn't bridge to Internet. Equally, the description on the phone just says "Error".
- Inside of the camera (which is working great!!), pressing the last-image button on the bottom left opens the gallery. However, when the gallery opens up, the entire screen goes black. If I open the task manager and the select the camera app, the screen returns to the last image as it should do in the beginning. I tried changing the default gallery app to google fotos, but the behaviour is the same.... a little anoying but whatever...
- bluetooth headset: the volume control buttons on the phone do not change the output of the bluetooth device
Anyhow, so far I am ok with the system: not very impressed but I can live with it.
Does anybody know, if there is a way to update the system without needing to flash the entire system.img?
Would it be feasible to flash the official RR kirin build on it?
For some reason I am not sure the "OpenKirin" team will solve the above bugs anytime soon....

Proximity Sensor Uncalibrated

Hi everyone, in the last week i have decided to try miui, and i tryed, now i come back to Lineage OS and have a issue, the sensor is uncalibrated. I tryed so many things and anything could help me, my sensor just work when i come back to Miui and calibre the sensor in configs, only in Miui. I tryed so many firmwares, and roms, Lineage, Cosmic, Omni.. Any solution for this problem?
Sorry for my bad english. Thanks
same thing here, was on lineage oreo (lineage-15.1-20180423-nightly-gemini-signed.zip), suddenly proximity sensor not working (screen turning off when receiving call), installed miui to recalibrate, work fine, installed lineage oreo (lineage-15.1-20180507-nightly-gemini-signed.zip) again, proximity again failed
i think the problem started with the lineage oreo image lineage-15.1-20180423-nightly-gemini-signed.zip but might be the one after that..
i know it did work with the anoying april fool's version
same issue
I have the same issue here on my mi 5
Since nighty april update of lineage 15.1, my proximity sensor is not working anymore in call.
I have a black screen in every call.
it's very paintfull
solved
Problem solved updating with last firmware version MIUI 8.5.10 Global dev

What is the best stable and working rom atm

Hi guys. I'm looking for refreshment to my g5s plus. Since I bought it I'm very satisfied with this device. I'm using old ground zero VALIDUS oreo 8.1 rom (version 1.5) and i was totally satisfied with its features. Like every Android, after 6months+ it started lagging sometimes. I've got no time to try every rom.
Can u share your opinion if u tried multiple roms?
From what I've read pie builds are not working perfectly yet,right? Are they any better from 8.1 though? Should I try any?
My main requirement is substratum to be working on the rom.
I'm considering picking latest build of oreo validus if Noone suggest anything.
Btw. My Google maps lost function to show the direction I'm facing(this triangle thing) . Any ideas? Tried basic solutions like reinstalling another versions. Can it be caused by rom itself? (unfortunately I don't remember when I lost that function).
I'm using a unofficial LineageOS ROM (Android Pie) Here's the link if you want to test it out, but yeah there's also This ROM, I tested Oreo, but not Pie

Roaming around is this the best setup for this phone (x526) also Camera question

For getting OTA updates and such seems the last ROM that offers this is Mokee (Android 10): https://download.mokeedev.com/s2.html with Open Gapps pico along with TWRP recovery.
This kernel seems to work as well as a set it and forget it kinda method: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/nethunter-kernel-for-android-11.4451823/
Camera. The one linked in this forum seems to have issues with freezing. I found another one that worked flawlessly on Lineage 17 but I didn't backup the APK before wiping the phone and can't remember where I found it.
I don't prefer MoKee and instead would make an unofficial LineageOS build for android 10 (though no OTA) due to my preferences. Keys are public though so if you want to resolve the security alert, then sign with your own private keys. Android 11 is almost ready (including saving photos to gallery), just can't remove fingerprint directly from settings or else the fingerprint won't work.
The nethunter kernel seems fine but there may be less support when encountering bugs as most users use the stock Lineage kernel.
Cameras on custom ROMs may break due to software, bad libraries, etc. The camera that comes from LineageOS blackscreens or closes frequently (even with HAL3 disabled) and you were probably looking for a GCam port.
This phone is for someone else so ease of use like OTA updates is a must.
I'll poke around for Gcam mods till find the one that was used.
mokee or /e/OS then. Don't know about OTA because I haven't tried them, but builds are still being published.

Question Issues with LOS+microG & opinions about Omnirom

Hi everyone,
I'm using LineageOS+microG on my Zenfone 8 since 6 months, but I'm not fully satisfied.
Indeed, I regularly encounter some issues like:
Capricious fingerprint sensor.
Various graphic bugs (when opening the notification bar, or the last applications menu).
The phone asks for the PIN code, whereas it is already unlocked.
Sometime I can't control it anymore, there are invisible click everywhere in the screen... Scarce but very annoying.
I come from a Lineage 18 on a Oneplus, and it had been working perfectly. So maybe it's just due to Lineage 19?
Moreover, the LineageOS+microG project seems not to offer weekly updates - for instance, the last LineageOS version date from 2022-11-19 and the last LineageOS+microG from 2022-10-23.
So I have two questions:
Are these issues normal, or related to my phone? If yes, what can I do?
I've seen that there is another ROM for Zenfone 8: Omnirom. I don't know it well, can I expect some improvements if I install it instead of LOS?
Thank in advance for your feedbacks.

I'm using OmniROM with MicroG on my Asus Zenfone 8 since I bought the phone several month ago without problems. Everything I need works -- IMHO it's a perfect Android for the Zenfone 8 .
And OmniROM supports signature spoofing so the patched Playstore works.
I don't think that weekly updates are necessary for a phone OS (AFAIK google releases Android patches only once a month) but if you need them : There is a new image for OmniROM created every week.
And you can simply copy the repositories for OmniROM to your local workstation and create your own image of the OS as often as you like (after resyncing the repos)
For more details regarding creating your own OmniROM image see

Hi bnsmb,
Thanks for your review about Omnirom, it looks interesting.
As everything works well for you, it would mean that whether my phone has an issue, whether LOS contains more bugs than Omnirom... but I'm surprised about that. I thought LOS would be stable too.
I'm agree with you about the updates, I don't need once a week, except when the firmware looks unstable.
