[ROM][Android 11][UNOFFICIAL]LineageOS 18.1[LG G8][alphalm] - LG G8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developme

WARNING: Carriers in the US are shutting down 3G networks. This ROM does not have VoLTE capability at this time, so calls will not be sent or received if your carrier has disabled 3G.
If you are in the US and wish to use this ROM, please check your carrier's 3G support and if there are any dates set for a 3G shutdown. If you are outside the US, this is unlikely to affect you, but do a google search anyway.
At the time of writing this disclaimer (March 18, 2022) AT&T has already disabled 3G and T-Mobile will shut down 3G networks for prior sprint users by the end of the month.

LineageOS 18.1 (Android 11) for US LG G8 (G820*)
LineageOS (also known as “Lineage”) is a free and open-source operating system based on Android. It is the successor to the custom ROM CyanogenMod.
Code:
#include "std_disclaimer.h"
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*/
This is an unofficial build of Lineageos 18.1 (Android 11) for the US LG G8.
THIS IS NOT A GSI
This works on all carriers!
This will only work for the US LG G8.
This will only work for alphalm, not alphaplus.
This will not work on the 'G8s' or the 'G8x'.
This will not work on Korean models.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Partition Backup:
Please backup all important partitions and data before installing this ROM. THis is very important for certain carriers including AT&T, as they do not provide the KDZ firmware files, so once you install lineage, you may not easily be able to go back if you haven't made a backup, though it's a good idea for anyone attempting to install any ROM on any device.
Important partitions are:
boot
product
vendor
dtbo
vbmeta
system
Make a backup of these in QFIL (both _a and _b slots of each, You will need to use QFIL during the following bootloader unlock guide so you can make this backup during that process.
Bootloader Must Be Unlocked
There's a guide for this linked below. This step is a must.
This must be installed from TWRP or other custom recovery on stock.
Please make sure latest stock firmware is installed. This may not be completely
necessary, but having an old firmware image installed has caused me
issues with call audio and such while developing this ROM.
What Works
Bluetooth
Wifi
Call/SMS (WARNING: Carriers in the US and perhaps other countries are disabling 3G, so no more calls and possibly even texts if this happens with your carrier!)
Data 2G/3G/LTE
Camera (GCam is required for wide angle back camera)
Audio
NFC
GPay Contactless Payments (Requires Magisk Hide)
Hotspot
Google Assistant Voice Match
Nearly Everything!
What Doesn't Work
VoLTE/VoWiFi/IMS - LG has a complicated proprietary IMS, so no VoLTE at all!
Assistant Voice Match while screen is off
AOD (I'm working on this)
Please let me know in the comments
Requirements
US LG G8 on any carrier
Latest firmware installed on device (may work with older firmware but results will vary)
Latest unofficial LineageOS zip (on github, linked in thread) and TWRP zip (attached to thread)
SD Card or adb for sideloading (see step 5)
PC with Windows (Linux is possible if you know what you're doing. Check out bkerler/edl on github, it works the same way as QFIL, but requires a small amount of Linux knowledge/experience.)
How to install
Unlock Bootloader and root with Magisk (Follow guide linked below)
Make a backup of all your data (I strongly recommend making a backup of your partitions with qfil (or EDL for linux users))
Download TWRP and the Lineage zip
Installl TWRP (Follow quick guide in attached archive)
Place Lineage zip and anything you want to install through recovery on external SD card (Can also be sideloaded with 'adb sideload', If so, skip this step)
Boot into TWRP or other custom recovery with volume and power shortcut
Install Lineage zip from sdcard or sideload (I always recommend sd, there's less to go wrong)
Once it completes, reboot into recovery again. There's an option for this in TWRP to skip the button combo. TWRP IS GONE. YOU WILL BOOT INTO LINEAGE RECOVERY. USE THIS FOR REMAINING STEPS.
Format Data (This is completely necessary. You will be returned to recovery on boot if you do not follow this step.)
Install Gapps, Magisk, and anything else from sd or with adb sideload. (If you don't want/need root, you can skip installing Magisk
Format Data Again (System will send you back to recovery to do it if you don't)
Reboot to system and enjoy!
A big thanks to SGCMarkus for everything he has done for LG devices on this platform. This wouldn't be possible without his work. Go buy him a coffee or something!
Big thanks to those I haven't named from the V50 G8 G8s Telegram group as well

GApps
Only install GApps packages for Android 11!

Highly recommended. (Because I use it and I know it works, it doesn't necessarily mean it's best though.) Follow download buttons. Go to Releases > NikGapps-R. Packages will be here. Info about what each package contains is on the page linked above.

I've tried this once and It seemed alright, but it was a little minimal for my taste. It's linked by LineageOS so it's here.
OpenGapps
I haven't tried this at all, but it's also linked by LineageOS so it should be here.

Downgrading and Crossflashing
This ROM requires your device to be on stock Android 10. Downgrading may be necessary, with some devices requiring a crossflash for the process!
Crossflashing
Crossflashing is only for those who own a G8 from a carrier that doesn't provide a KDZ (firmware image). There is no practical purpose to crossflash unless you really don't want the carrier bloatware, but there are easier ways to remove this.
There is a guide for crossflashing Here.
I haven't tried to crossflash personally but I've seen much success. The G8/G8X/v50 Telegram group (specifically the notes there) can definitely be a lot of help to anyone with an AT&T or Sprint G8 that wishes to go this route.
Downgrading
First, you have to download the appropriate firmware. You can select your preferred firmware here:
https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-lmg820qm-firmwares/
but this one is for the openus model and should work for sprint and at&t models:
https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/25195/G820QM20f_00_NAO_US_OP_0402
Second, you have to use LGUP with some slight modifications to flash the firmware to your device.
NOTE: This works without an unlocked bootloader and will relock the bootloader on your device. If you've unlocked your bootloader previously, you'll have to repeat the process.
Here is a brief guide for downgrading taken from this post:
(DO NOT FOLLOW THIS GUIDE IF YOU NEED TO CROSSFLASH)
Quote from TheLoonyRebel:
...
And here's the software you will need to get the job done:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682884898
1. Install the LG drivers if you haven't already.
http://tool.lime.gdms.lge.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=UW00120120425
2. Install LG Up
3. Install the LG Common DLL
4. Copy the UI confilg files to C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LGUP\model\Common
5. Turn off the G8.
6. Once off hold up volume up then insert your USB into the phone.
7. Open LG Up. If you get an error message ignore.
8. Select REFURBISH in LG Up
9. Load the KDZ file by drag and drop where it says BIN file
10. Click start
11. Once the downgrade is done installing the phone will reboot...
...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Do not follow the bootloader unlock method in that thread as it will fail miserably and soft brick your phone, only follow the downgrade method quoted above.
If there are any questions, please ask in the comments.
Edit: I've attached the necessary files in case that androidfilehost link becomes dead in the future.

Thank you for your efforts!

I don't think this rom would work on your device, but I could be wrong. Either way, I do not recommend trying it. Also, I've never used a GSI but I've heard they're buggy in general.

After two days of use, I found that the functions of always on display are abnormal, and the side Google buttons cannot be customized

There's a feature in Lineage called Ambient Display, alongside AOD. It's hard to find in settings, but if you go to your quick settings tiles and tap the edit button, there will be a tile for Ambient Display to add. Disabling this made the display behave more normally for me.
If this does not fix your problem, please elaborate
As for the side Google buttons, I'm not sure what you're referring to, please be more specific.

Thank you for your efforts!
I was about to get rid of my Sprint G8 for not receiving any software updates for half a year haha
Edit: Just installed and its working flawlessly on Sprint G8

Thank you!
I tested MindTheGapps, contacts and calendar couldn't sync, because google play service had no rights.
Just set the rights, it's perfect.

Thank you for your reply. I tried to turn off ambient display and turn on AOD. After locking the screen, AOD information will be displayed for a second or two, then flash once and disappear

It seems this is a bug. I will look into it and add it to the list. Thanks.

First of all Thank you for your great work you saved the life of my Lg G8, so I will tell my experience after 3 days of use, deactivate everything that would have to do with the AOD because it is not working correctly even though in my case It is not essential, the ROM is really smooth and everything else works correctly, I am using it with Open GApps and it has not given me problems, the truth is the ROM is on the right track, but I only had a problem and it is time to playing the device hangs it stays bibrando until it forces the closing of the app, it does not always do it but when it happens annoying, I also feel that it does not go so fluid in the games compared to the stock, but it is nothing serious perhaps with a better kernel you can get more out of the ROM but for the moment it is a great advance for the LG G8 and again Thanks for your work!.

Thank you for taking the time for making this ROM OP! Will install later today and report back.

I disabled time sync, reboot. System time back to compile time.

Been using this rom for two days and it is amazing. Fast and barely any issues apart from what is mentioned above. My only personal gripe is the slight drop in gaming performance than stock.

hi. can i do this with lg lmg820um Android 9 pie version. I will be glad if you answer

Alrighty, So I've been using the ROM for 2 days and I have a minor grievance with the OS itself which I'm sure is out of your control, Wallpaper zoom is incredibly annoying and the most common work around is an app called KLWP which is compatible with stock rom but not this one. My current solution is an app called SB Wallpaper Changer, under portrait setting it to single and Fixed, fixes the problem. But this breaks any system function that bases colors on the wallpapers color.
That all being said TYVM OP, stock rom on my device was falling apart at the seams, and while it may have taken me 15 hours to get LOS working it's ages better than stock.
Also edit: MY Phone was a Model LM-G820TM but reported as a 850UM in LG Bridge, don't even wanna know why. Android Reports LM-G820 after unlock and LOS

I don't think this would work. Your device's firmware should be updated to android 10. The ROM does not install this, it is retained from original stock ROM. This would probably result in a brick.

Ok so I'm about a week in, the fingerprint scanner is just, gone. It's not that it isn't reading, it's just not an option. The fingerprint scanner is completely gone from the system settings, any attempt to communicate with it fail immediately. it just, disapeared from the software. Restarting or factory reseting didn't do anything, it's still gone.
Edit: Gonna try and go through recover to update then reflash if needed, pain
Edit 2: reflashed, still gone

How strange I have been for 2 weeks and I still have not had that problem in relation to fingerprints, will the sensor of your device have been damaged?

It always says "There's an internal problem with your device" after booting up. It's kinda annoying.
And it also does not accept my Samsung microSD card formatted on stock ROM and wants me to format it. I'm backing it up, and will try to format it later.
Fingerprint aslo does not work, but I'm fine with that at the moment.
If someone needs to know, I have H4113 (dual-sim variant of regular XA2).

Just information: I have the H3223 not H3213, and haven't tried to flash this, but on the Google Pixel (8.1) with at least some custom kernels and some versions of Magisk, the same "There's an internal problem with your device" when you boot up, but other than possibly having your phone screen on longer than it should, there are no actual problems on the Pixel. Could be for the same reason(s), whatever those reasons are. I'm not positive but I think that more recent versions of Magisk might not cause that message anymore. I use an old version of Magisk, but in my case the Pixel custom kernel I use causes that, too.

You're welcome! I'm not suggesting that you flashing Magisk or anything is the cause of this on this ROM, it's just related to changes in Android 8.1 and that it doesn't really necessarily mean there's something wrong. I'm sure there are ways around it, but since I'm not a developer and I don't know what triggers it, I don't know.
Is fingerprint scanner not working for everyone or it is not working only for those with a fingerprint scanner made by a a different hardware maker?

Thanks! With "almost everything seems to be fine", I meant that most of the main parts (should) work.
Camera is a known problem on Sony devices due to DRM keys getting erased on bootloader unlock.

The SD card problem could be related to your phone being dual SIM: as the title says, these builds are for H3113 (single SIM variant).
You can try to set dual SIM properties in build.prop (you can do it with an app like this or a text editor if you have root access, otherwise I think it's doable through TWRP too):
Code:
persist.multisim.config=dsds
persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds
ro.telephony.default_network=9,1
then reboot the phone and test.
These come directly from H4113 makefile, I can't assure you everything will be fine after this, but you can give it a try.
As per the fingerprint, it's currently broken on all variants, I'm sorry.

I think SD card problem was related to something else, because it started working after reformatting.
But there were also problems with SIM card, it worked on first boot, but after removing and inserting it again device shown that there were no signal, so your solution may be helpful in this situation. I can't test it due to limited amount of time, though.

Can you build one for H4113? You shood have files for it too
Thanks axxx007xxxz for sharing these builds! They helped me recover Android on my completely wiped h3113 pioneer. Both the 8.0 and 8.1 build work for me. Downloading them to my PC was the hardest part, for some reason the download often fails.
I still have a couple of questions about these Sony AOSP builds that maybe you can answer:
1. Do you know what the Sony software binaries* do? I have flashed them on my device a couple of times, but I don't see anything added.
2. What is the difference between build type "userdebug" and "eng"?
3. If I use this build, how would you recommed I update it? Is the only way to flash in fastboot? (Like step 6 in Sony's guide**?)
Thank you!

I get the same error message right after booting, also without root. It's annoying, but I guess I can live with it.
P.S. As I'm a new user, I cannot use links yet. Please use these footnotes instead:

1. parts of android which are closed source, graphics driver for example. you won't see them.
2. eng should give you more debugging options, like working adb logcat without enabling developer options which is sometimes needed while you're porting android to new device and there's just black screen on the phone for example. correct me if i'm wrong.
3. flashing worked through twrp for me but i had to build unsingned zip.
regarding the internal problem message, just ignore it.

Checking H4113 makefile, I don't see big differences except for a few properties: https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/device-sony-pioneer/blob/master/aosp_h4113.mk#L18-L22; you can try to set them (you can use an app like this) and check if you can get dual SIM to work.
I can make a H4113 build if you want to test it though.

I still have a couple of questions about these Sony AOSP builds that maybe you can answer:
1. Do you know what the Sony software binaries* do? I have flashed them on my device a couple of times, but I don't see anything added.
2. What is the difference between build type "userdebug" and "eng"?
3. If I use this build, how would you recommed I update it? Is the only way to flash in fastboot? (Like step 6 in Sony's guide**?)

Basically, what @frantisheq said.
I think you can flash IMG files through TWRP too if you extract the ZIP into your phone's memory.

Just wondering aside from not being supported in Sony's open device program what exactly is needed to get the H3223 from getting AOSP 8.1 built for it? I can't imagine the kernel being much different on the H3223 from any of the other XA2 Ultra single sim models, right?

Yes plese make a build for H4413, i get so many random errors and every time i fix an error there appears another. And is the build for this model supposed to work with h4113? Aren't the boot images incompatible?

Descritpion:
One of the first releases of Magma for any device. It's meant to be clean and stable that's why it's pretty bare for now. I'm using Nexus 4 for testing this so probably more updates will come.
Official release with OTA will be available soon :fingers-crossed:
Working/not working:
- everything should work like on LOS 16 by voron
Flashing Instruction:
1. Backup all your data (Important)
2. Wipe system, data and cache.

Does this mean that the ROM is Android 9 that looks like Android 10?

This rom is Android 10 based
Looking pretty good. I had already repartitioned for PIE and Magma installed without any problem. I couldn't change my home wallpaper to the pure black I prefer, and I discovered that the smallest OpenGapps containing Wallpapers is Mini, which was too big for my system partition. I installed Pico (Micro also works) and got the Wallpapers apk from Apkpure. All working fine.
The only thing not working is Magisk 20.1, which refuses to stick. I get an "installed ok" message in TWRP, but Magisk Manager isn't installed when I boot, and when I install the apk Manager says that Manager is up to date but Magisk itself isn't installed. I'll keep trying and report if I get any more info.
Great job, @edi194. Amazing to have Android 10 running on such a very old device. Thank you.
Edit: I've installed Magma on my second N4, which is a good one (screen works fine), and Magisk doesn't stick on this one either.
This is absolutely not any sort of criticism, just reporting. As I said, I'm blown away by having Android 10 on my ancient N4s - a remarkable achievement for which I'm very grateful.
Why does it want gapps for 7.1.2 and not 10?
nvm silly me downloaded arm64 gapps
Rom is running super smooth!
Thanks for the ROM. Tried it out.
It's not smooth, stutters more than Pie ROMs. However, given that it's still early stage for 10 ROMs, it's very impressive. No huge bugs. Totally usable performance. Pie ROMs in early stages were way more slower than this.
Keep up the good work! It will be great to see some updates!
Hi, body, good job for this, it's very smooth on my nexus4. And I want to know which gapps I can flashed on it? I can't find it. Thanks~
https://www.cyanogenmods.org/downloads/pico-opengapps-for-android-10-arm32/
Pico works fine.
Testing, testing, testing...
New build is up!
Changelog:
- updated device tree
- updated source
- changed bootanimation
Nothing pretty big ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
December patch not added... yet.
Known bugs:
- inbuilt screen recording will crash your systemui constantly, don't use it
- too big advanced reboot icon
Download link: https://mirror.codebucket.de/cosp/test/Magma-Moonshine-OFFICIAL-mako-20191213.zip
Thanks for the new version. I like the new Marshmallow(?) boot animation.
A couple of things to report. Each time I've flashed after a total wipe (all partitions) & format.
1) Magisk still doesn't stick. Manual installation of Magisk Manager shows "Magisk not installed" although TWRP shows a successful installation. I mention this only because I don't think it's a Magisk problem, as Magisk works on my Nexus 5 with Android Q.
On my first two attempts I got a bootloop - it showed the SIM PIN screen for a second, and then the boot animation showed. This repeated for about 10 minutes.
On the third attempt I installed only the ROM & OpenGapps Pico (no Magisk), and the bootloop is still happening as I write this.
2) I set a security PIN, which was accepted, but then the security showed the unlock method as "Swipe", and no PIN is required to open the phone. When I try to change it again, it says "Wrong PIN".
I have two Nexus 4s. The other one still has the original Magma on it and it doesn't have the PIN or bootloop problems, though Magisk doesn't work on that device either.
It may be only this specific device. Can anyone confirm that these problems don't happen on their device?

Flashing opengapps will break multiple things in android 10 on 32 bit arm devices at the moment, including security PIN settings.
Thanks, @voron00, but both problems persist.
Full wipe & format, install Magma only, no Gapps or Magisk, boot was fine. I chose Security/PIN, entered the PIN, which was accepted, and pressed the back button. It showed "Swipe". I locked the screen and unlocked it with a simple swipe, no PIN required. I tried changing it again and got "Wrong PIN".
And I'm afraid it's bootlooping again - a second of the SIM PIN screen and then the boot animation.
Looking into this, if I'll fix it I'll push new build today
Thanks, @edi194 - much appreciated.
I thought that reporting this without a log might not be too helpful, so I tried it on my second Nexus 4, which is in perfect condition. I'm afraid that both the PIN & bootlooping are happening on that device as well - just Magma, no Gapps or Magisk.
Thanks for your work on Nexus 4 Android 10.
Update... again
Changelog:
- hopefully fix keyguard (pin/password/pattern is now working, after reboot it takes some time to unlock)
- added (useless for now) MagmaSettings
- removed screenrecorder (not working on mako anyway)
- really small source updates
About Magisk...
To be honest, I don't know what's the problem. Tested several Q/10 roms and it wasn't working on any of them. Probably it's an kernel thing but i'm not experienced about these at all. We need to wait for proper fix by someone else.
Download link on first post
Wow, you're good...
PIN and reboot now work correctly.
Magisk still doesn't work despite claiming to be installed in TWRP. No problem - my Nexus 4s are my emergency phones.
I don't know if it's of any help (or interest ) but the Android 10 on my Nexus 5, on which Magisk does work, is the work of @z3DD3r - an experimental Hammerhead LineageOS 17 on the green banner at the top of this link:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/hammerhead-lineageos/files/16.0/
Unfortunately, recovery from backup twrp 3.3.1-1 UA does not work for me. The system does not stand up and hangs on flying balls. Adb works. I can do logcat if needed.
Has anyone obtained a working system from recovery?
When I read your post my first thought was that "hangs on flying balls" must be a traditional Polish way of saying "Not very stable". But then I got what you meant...
I can confirm that recovering an image doesn't seem to work, which rather defeats the purpose of a recovery. I've never seen a TWRP recovery failure before. I did a backup with 3.3.1-1 UA, wiped everything except Internal Storage, and recovered the image, but it "hung on flying balls" .
I flashed standard TWRP 3.3.1 Mako, but that's the same - although it did complain about vendor & EFS partitions not being found. When I get more time I'll reinstall Magma and try the same backup, wipe & recovery with standard TWRP.
Update: No, standard TWRP doesn't work either. Full wipe & format, flash Magma & OpenGapps only, took TWRP backup, system rebooted ok, back to TWRP, recovered this new backup apparently ok, but it's been on the flying dots boot screen for 10 minutes now.

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 9 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. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.
Known issues: (as of May 19, 2020)
- FM Radio app doesn't work; It actually works, just once every two attempts: If it crashes the first time, select close app, clear apps from background and try again; I'll find a definite fix soon;
- Wi-Fi signal strength doesn't show on status bar, only in the wireless screen;
- Fingerprint reader doesn't work;
- SELinux is currently set to permissive;
Instructions:
- This is a FULL ROM build, meaning your BOOT, DTBO, SYSTEM and VENDOR partitions will be overwritten. Backup first!
- You need firmware version 11.x.y (preferably 11.3.169 - recovery encryption only tested with that version), any will do. 10.5 will not work
- Download TWRP from the files section, fastboot flash it (if you don't have custom recovery yet)
- Download patched vbmeta.img
- Download the latest build
- (Optional) Download Gapps (arm64 9.0, any flavor) and Magisk
- Boot to recovery (whichever you have), flash the new recovery
- Reboot to recovery, now your data is decrypted, flash vbmeta, latest build, magisk and gapps
- Format DATA completely to start from scratch since encryption is different
- Reboot

Reporting Bugs:
DO NOT Report bugs if you're not following the instructions!
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues.
Changelog:
May 19, 2020:
- Initital release, everything working except for FM and fingerprint reader;
- Kernel is completely overhauled and updated to LA.UM.7.8.r1-08500-SDM710.0;
- Audio drivers are stock 11.3.169 (we don't have the sources);
- Wifi is open-source, with MAC randomization currently being tested;
- Call recording already works;
- BT Audio works for calls and everything else, HD codecs being optimized;
- Wifi Display works perfectly on my cheap chinese Android TV Box. Please test with a Chromecast / Google Cast / SmartTVs, since I don't have any of those;
- Camera2API is active, RAW pictures are also enabled;
- Build will automatically encrypt your device, I had to fool Lenovo's BS keymaster to make it work, so it has to be enabled;
- As of now, I don't care if your apps work or not, that's not my problem, just let me know about hardware issues;

I can confirm that this works.
It's great to have a ROM that works and doesn't have audio problems or auto brightness issues compared to GSIs. I've been using this for two days without any problems aside from the bugs already mentioned. I am holding off on using Magisk like I normally do so as not to introduce complications.
Overall, a great first effort. Thank you very much!

No, sorry. If that changes, I will let you know
I can imagine most of the users that are here are currently using a GSI. The stock 11.3.169 from here can actually be installed via TWRP. Flashing it would revert to stock recovery so users need to reinstall the TWRP recovery image during the same session. That's how I ensured that I was running an 11.x firmware after using all those GSIs from 4PDA. Hopefully this helps others to revert to stock so they can use your LOS build.
Some more good news, we now have a TWRP that decrypts data even from this updated Lineage 16 build. It actually should work for any ROM flashed atop firmware 11.3.169. That's the one I'm using and probably the majority of people who wanna stick to "the latest and greatest" speech, so here we go, now we can enable OTAs without any issues and flash anything. This recovery can decrypt any data regardless of password type, so you can use PATTERN, PIN, or whatever, it will work, I tested them all.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/lineageos-lenovo-z5s/files/twrp-3310-jd2019-recovery.img/download
And what is apparently massive news for us, our phone will get an Android 10 official update, meaning we'll be able to boot lineage 17.1 with the updated audio drivers (in theory). Anybody in China or who knows how to trick their system and able to get ahold of these files?

Hi, I used your recovery to try and create a full backup of your ROM before I go back to stock. I encounter an error when it tries to backup the system partition - the backup fails. When I tried to install the Full OTA ROM from Lenovo, it also fails. I flashed the other TWRP and both the backup and install worked.
I'm going back to stock to get the 11.5 update available only if the phone has a locked bootloader.

Hey man, thanks for the report. I just rebooted to recovery and backed up the system partition without a hitch, so no clue what happened with you. Regarding the Lenovo Ota it probably doesn't work since they use different manifests from the ones I'm using with lineage. Nevertheless I'll make it universal now that I know about it. Let me know if you can get 11.5 and we can make a dump of all partitions. Thanks man

The only thing I can think about was that I was trying to save to a microSD instead of internal storage.
Anyhow, I'm back on LOS. I went back to stock, relocked the bootloader, got the update notification but the downloaded update fails on install. I "read" in the Chinese forums that access to 11.5 is some sort of closed beta; some users also encounter failed updates.
@wzsx150 published a new TWRP based on Android 10, probably with the partition file info of 11.5. It doesn't work for me when I flashed it on top of 11.3 (Android 9). Thought it might help you further.

That's why it failed, system partition is 5.1 GB, your sdcard is probably formatted in FAT32 which DOESN'T ALLOW files over 4GB, that's a filesystem limitation.
I'll wait for somebody getting us 11.5 firmware files and release a new twrp for Android 10, (partitions won't change and AFAIK, wsx's twrp doesn't decrypt and is full of extra non open source stuff) and Lineage 17.1, until then makes little sense to me update this knowing it won't last long anyways.

Oh, right, I totally forgot all about that. Should have tried enabling compression or saving to internal storage.

I know this is the wrong thread to answer this, but we can't really help you out without some more details. Were you trying to install through recovery? Through QFIL?
From the looks of it, sounds like you have a bootloop. Try doing QFIL again and unlocking bootloader, or the other way around - sometimes it works for me that way.
I have Z5s 6GB/128GB model, sold as Global Version & Global ROM.
It does have EU LTE bands, so it probably is somewhat "global".
The downside: I am at 10.5 version with no updates available. Seller also told that there are no updates.
Two questions:
1. Is it absolutely necessary to have 11.3+ to install this LineageOS ROM? What is blocking installation if I have 10.5? Can I brick it?
-- EDIT: I will answer myself: Yes it is needed. LineageOS did not flash over 10.5 and gave an error. That was validation error before flashing, so no harm done.
2. Is it safe to install Chinese ROM on this device? Is it possible to loose something in the process? Like LTE bands or something else important?
-- EDIT: Seems to be ok.
I really want to install LineageOS or some other google free AOSP ROM. But I do not want to loose important features or brick it in the process.
Thanks.
EDIT: I installed Arrow OS GSI at the moment over 10.5 and it seems to work. But still looking forward to get pure LineageOS installed.
I have one problem that is hardware related:
Microphone level is quite low compared to my previous phone and people are complaining about low volume when I call.
Is there any way to add more gain? I tried to search but did not find easy and straightforward answer. Most solutions refer to methods/files that do not exist on this ROM.
What I found was complaint that there is still no way to easily manage audio stuff in android...
Mic Test (lauresprojects.com.mictest) app confirms that recording levels are considerably lower in both direct sound and communication mode when comparing to my other phone.
Otherwise seems to working quite nicely. Thanks for your good work.
I can't use face unlock with this ROM.
Is there still some active development at this project?

Bugs!​
Secure Folder broken (will try to fix later) Fixed on 2.5.1
Samsung Pass broken (because of knox 0x1, duh) Removed from ROM, it will never work.
Bug with AOD brightness when you use fingerprint unlock method. This bug happens when you have AOD to always show. If AOD is showing, then you turn the screen on to only show lockscreen clock and then turn the screen off for AOD to show, the brightness of AOD will reduce to the most minimal and it will be hard to see, regardless of what brightness you set up. There are 2 ways to getting rid of this bug:
Disable unlocking phone with fingerprint
Unlocking your phone and then locking it again. This will only fix it until you trigger the bug again
Fixed, clock animation removed.
You tell me

Prequisites​MANDATORY ALWAYS: SD Card. It IS possible to have it on internal storage but ONLY if you are not encrypted. If you are encrypted, then you will need to FORMAT DATA and that will delete everything in your internal storage and you won't be able to add it back to internal storage with TWRP because MTP is broken.​For installing 2.5.1/2.5.2:
Installing and following NcX 2.5 installation steps, as well as its prequesites
TWRP Installed (included in NcX 2.5)
Download multidisabler.zip (link: From Telegram Group (also attached on this thread) and add to SD Card or internal storage
Download Magisk zip installer to your SD Card or internal storage
For installing 2.5:
Update to bootloader U3 (either install OneUI 2.1 or OneUI 2.5 fully with Odin), otherwise you will have problems with camera
Fully unlock bootloader. I don't mean just turning OEM unlock on in developer settings , I mean FULLY unlock. If you didn't know, Samsung changed up how you unlock the bootloader on newer devices like this one. @topjohnwu gets a little more specific here: Explanation but I'm going to quote the important stuff to FULLY unlock bootloader:
Unlocking BL on modern Samsung devices have some caveats, so I figure this would be helpful.
Allow bootloader unlocking in Developer options → OEM unlocking
Reboot to download mode: reboot and press the download mode key combo for your device.
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and automatically reboot.
If you think the bootloader is fully unlocked, it is actually not! Samsung introduced VaultKeeper, meaning the bootloader will still reject any unofficial partitions before VaultKeeper explicitly allows it.
Go through the initial setup. Skip through all the steps since data will be wiped again later.
Connect the device to Internet during the setup.
Enable developer options, and confirm that the OEM unlocking option exists and is grayed out. This means the VaultKeeper service has unleashed the bootloader.
Your bootloader now accepts unofficial images in download mode.

Download Magisk zip installer to your SD Card or internal storage
Download multidisabler.zip (link: From Telegram Group and also attached in this thread) and add to SD Card or internal storage
Instructions!​For installing 2.5.1/2.5.2:
Reboot to TWRP
Flash NcX 2.5.1.img or NcX 2.5.2 as "super" image in TWRP
Reboot to Recovery
Format data if you are coming from Stock ROM. If you are coming from NcX 2.5 then you don't need to wipe or format, you can just skip this step.
Flash multidisabler (this is required always)
Flash Magisk zip (optional)
Reboot and wait patiently
For installing 2.5:
Reboot to download mode and add AP_NcX 2.5 A71 in AP on Odin
Uncheck the Auto reboot option in Odin
Flash
When it is finished, force a manual reboot (keep pressing VOL - and Power buttons together)
Immediately when phone reboots, boot to recovery mode (VOL + and Power button)
If your phone was unencrypted before, just do a normal wipe. If your phone was not unencrypted before, do a full data format (Go to WIPE option in TWRP, select FORMAT DATA button at the bottom and they type yes on the keyboard. This will completely wipe your internal storage so be sure to backup and photos, music, etc... you have in internal media.)
Flash multidisabler to ensure you do not get encrypted
Flash magisk (I don't know if this is mandatory, I would fully recommend it though)
Reboot and wait patiently

FAQ
[Q] My phone is stuck in bootloop/infinite boot, what should I do?
[A] It is normal for first instalation to take aprox 10-20 minutes on first boot, let it sit for a little bit
[Q] Even after 20 minutes, my phone is still in a bootloop/infinite boot, what can I do?
[A] It is possible that your previoius Android setup is conflicting with this new setup. Please, do the following:
1. FORMAT DATA (not WIPE, FORMAT!)
2. Try the instalation of NcX again
[Q] I've found a bug, what should I do
[A] Please read the "Bugs" section of the thread to see if your bug has been reported, if it hasn't, please let me know exactly what the problem is so I can take a look
[Q] I flashed magisk on TWRP but no apps are asking for SU Permission
[A] Make sure you have the Magisk Manager app installed
[Q] I don't see Magisk Manager in my apps
[A] You need to download the manager from the official source: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk
[Q] Something bothers me and I want it fixed/changed
[A] Please, kindly make a request and if it's within my grasp, I'll try to fix it. Just, don't be rude and demand something. Either that or return to stock, your choice
How to report a bug/Ask for a change​
Over the small amount of time I've been doing my edits and shared them with the community, I've noticed something that seems to irritate me. I can't speak for all the developers on this forum, but I do edits/ROMs/PORTs/etc... to what I like. I don't work for anybody else but me. I share my work because it may have something of value to other people and/or some people may share the same taste as me on regards to what they want on a ROM.
That being said, that doesn't mean I will completely ignore what the community has to say.
First and foremost, it must be said, I am merely a beginner. I do not claim to be a professional developer that knows how to add everything, I am nowhere close and I learn as I go.
There are ways to ask for something and/or report a bug when it comes to ROMs, and this post is my attempt to try to explain how to (and how not to) report a bug in order to help me out as much as possible to try to fix something
You can also ask for something to be added, but there are also ways to ask for something
So, here we go
Keep in mind:
I do not add stuff that can easily be downloaded from the Playstore
I, myself, don't do kernel edits
I COULD remove stuff if NOBODY uses it
---REPORTING BUGS---​
How NOT to report a bug:
"SystemUI (or any app)is crashing, please help!"
"Instagram doesn't allow me to edit my post, what could be wrong?"
"My bank account app is not letting me do such thing"
These posts are sort of pointless as they only state something but I have no context on what could be causing it. Also, I can't really control (for the most part) third-party apps, so if you're going to ask about them this way, don't even bother
A slightly better way to report a bug:
"I clean installed the ROM and was working fine, after I installed Facebook and logged in, I immediately uploaded a photo and SystemUI started to crash. Can you look in to it?"
"I tried to install Black Neon theme (a link to it would work as well) and it was working fine until I tried to activate AOD (or anything else for some reason) and SystemUI (or any other app) is crashing, could you look in to it?"
"My bank account app doesn't let me take a screenshot of my accounts. I get a toast notification saying "Can't take screenshot due to security policy"
As you can see, this provides a bit more context and explanation on your current situation. This gives me a little more detail on trying to replicate the problem and hopefully could fix it by replicating it. Well, except for point #3 which is out of my hands for the most part (I think). If you include what kernel you're using would make everything better! Also any significant change that would require root (like xposed and or anything that modifies /system also needs to be informed for better results)
The BEST way to report a bug:
LOGCAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please learn the ins and outs of a logcat, this really helps a lot on finding what the problem is. Also, please give a brief explanation as the above examples when providing a log cat
---ASKING FOR STUFF TO BE ADDED---​
How NOT to ask for stuff:
On your next update, add iris scanner
You should add (app) on your next update
Hey, please add (app or feature) on your next update
No, I do not work for you. Even if you say please like the third example, that doesn't mean you're being polite. It still sounds like an order lol so you should probably rephrase your request.
How to ask for stuff to be added to my work:
Would you be so kind to add (feature) to your ROM, if possible?
Would it be possible to add this app to your ROM?
Please, can you add (feature) to your ROM, if it isn't much to ask?
See how politeness makes everything better? You're not demanding it, you're just politely asking to see if maybe it is within my grasp to add something. And if all request would be like this, I can assure you I'd try my best to add said feature
I hope this is useful to you or I at least hope that some people read it.
If not, I can just tell you to return to stock ROM, probably better than any ROM I put out anyway
Enjoy guys, keep on the lookout for updates. I plan on adding more MODs and fixes

If you've already rooted, that means you have fully unlocked bootloader and it means that you can now freely install my ROM.

Another weebified custom ROM aiming to be a home for weebs - Based on Project Materium, an optimized LineageOS-based Android aftermarket firmware with extra features, developed by people all over the world.
Quoting the LineageOS description:
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. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
We offer vanilla, GApps and AuroraOSS variants. If you install a vanilla variant, the only supported GApps package is MindTheGapps (GApps/AuroraOSS builds are not available for a few devices due to space issues).
Download & instructions:
Install MIUI 12.5 if you have updated to anything Android 12.
Fully install custom recovery of your choice.
Flash the ROM. You can also sideload it with ADB if you want to.
!!! If you'll flash Magisk, you'll need to enable "Reflash (recovery) after installing a ROM" after choosing the ZIP as well !!!
After flashing, reboot to recovery.
Format data.
Flash Magisk if you want to.
Reboot to system and enjoy!
Download (Taken down due to discontinuation)
IMPORTANT: If you are coming from another ROM, you need to format data (TWRP > Wipe > Format Data > *type "yes"*).
IMPORTANT: If you want to keep Magisk after each OTA, you need to make it flash to inactive slot **right before rebooting** (Magisk > Install (In "Magisk" card) > Install to inactive slot)
About:
Features:
Latest security patches merged from LineageOS
SafetyNet passing unconditionally without Magisk/with kdrag0n's SafetyNet fix

I could never get used to MIUI myself so I feel you. For custom ROMs, there are quite a lot built (buildbotted) with practically the same bugs as well; you can check them out in respective Telegram groups/channels!
Hey there,
First of all, thx for bringing this
what about fast charging in these?
Would it work as expected?
Or as in every other GSI custom build i tested it doesn't work, and was kinda disappointing :/
Will the fix module be merged in the rom, making possible the avoid of magisk installing? Actually don't Care bout su and want m'y banking app to work
Hope to get your opinion soon
i followed the instructions to flash it down to the letter but cannot get it to boot. the phone will show the kasumi logo for a couple of minutes then just boots to fastboot. i am using orangefox recovery if that helps.

So i'll do as OP said to flash, probably tonight.
Are you really sure to come from Global version?
Have you tried with TWRP from Woomy?
All my previous tests were made with TWRP and appart i sometimes forget to format data After flash, once i did, it worked

@windowz414 is there any kind of vbmeta file to flash in order to be sure it would boot? An alternative boot IMG maybe? Or even a check disabler?
@nintendobuster420 finally gonna try flash tomorrow,
Did smtg else this evening, worked on a project, that isn't related at all to Android flashing x)
I also got a RN10S with NFC, maybe something related to variants?
Edit1: gonna try flashing Kasumi 1.3 PoPiPa Auroraoos 20220721; will update the post soon
Edit2: Kasumi auroraoos bootloop actually, reflashed auroraoos boot.img still bootlooping;
Gonna try with Kasumi classic, latest build to see
Edit3: Kasumi official 20220721 boolooping as well
Edit4: Will do a last attempt with Kasumi 20220716
Last attempt worked, I successfully booted up Kasumi, but with several differences
1- Backed up Pics and other important things for me;
2- Unlocked BL - Mi Unlock BL Tool latest version;
3- Switched Rom from 12.5.18EU to 12.5.16G with Mi Flash version 2018.5.28.0 (select fastboot rom, refresh, clean all, flash);
4- Booted once to get system settled
5- Installed TWRP from Womymy, booted on it
6- Switched Slot to B, Reflashed current recovery and rebooted from inside TWRP
NO I didn't, I switched to Slot B, reflashed recovery, got plenty errors, didn't rebooted in the end.
7- MTP mounted Storage and passed the zip rom
8- Flashed Kasumi, flashed again TWRP with the toggler while flashing rom, then directly formated format data,
9- Booted rom successfully!
still no fast charge, will keep it tough
@windowz414
Well done porting LOS dude!
Completely debloated
But still 13Go system
Little problem on CPU info
Battery seems good, phone is responsive, all the things that can be tweaked my god , bushido! Notification makes me smile
One word, net!
@HistoriaXV @nintendobuster420 hope you could success flash in the next days

I use the OFOX from Woomy and it works with it too, so it's not recovery fault.
You mentioned firmware requirement there, good shot! Glad to see someone that's not from the development team finally noticing it!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The vbmeta required is shipped along with the ZIP itself, so whether if you disable it or not, you can always keep verity enabled AS LONG AS YOU DON'T MODIFY ANYTHING INCLUDING INSTALLATION OF TWRP. The boot problem was due to some missing permissions required with Lawnchair 12.0, which was platform-specific issue. I have mitigated it as the lead developer of Kasumi and now just waiting for LineageOS to merge August '22 ASB on their Lineage 18.1 branches to ship newer builds. Until then, I have placed a little flashable that you can slap in on the recovery. It's global (means will work on all devices with latest Kasumi build installed). In fact, all it does is just putting the new permission XML file.

Not at all. Even though I have Secret, everything should be around the same across all variants, given that Woomy also tested it only for NFC during initial bringup before.

As I said previously, it's what system reports presumably due to some SEL denials. I tried to get as many as possible sorted out, still no luck. But just as a fact, it actually is fast charging.

Well, thank you I guess. ^^;
Before I begin with replies to these, just referring to "dude", I'm a girl so I would prefer you calling me with "dudess" or "dudette" instead. Again, all up to you. No forces here.
The debloat is rather Lineage talent, I really just based on Materium and added things on top.
That 13 GB system partition is something that's coming from partition values from source, so whatever you do unless you flash GSI, it will always be 13 GB. See GitHub:Kasumi-Devices/[email protected]/BoardConfig.mk (Partitions section, BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE flag) for more info.
Eh, I still can't find a way to get CPU info properly, I guess it's related to kernel? Unsure though.
And some more tweaks will come as well, just stay tight! I'm working hard on another update! ;3

Unfortunately no. Kasumi 1.x.x are all Android 11. Android 12 Kasumi will be possible only once our internal tests will be done and I finally finish working on Kasumi v2. Hundreds hyped, gradually widening audience, looking into the release of it. xD
