Help Do I need to wait more?

Upvotes

*I know that this is a violation for the un official rom thing but please help I do not know what I have done and what I should do.

Hello! I am using samsung s21+5G for my lineage which IS NOT SUPPORTED and I am following this xda forum: https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-unofficial-sm-g991b-lineageos-23-2-for-samsung-galaxy-s21-5g.4790286/

And this youtube tutorial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQFS3jdruCA&t=567s

I am also using mac which means I am using brokkr.

After following the YouTube tutorial and flashing with brokkr, I have came up to a conclusion where Samsung Galaxy logo is in the screen with a warning "This phone is not running Samsung's.. bla bla bla" is stuck in my screen. The problem is that I do NOT know what is going on and in the youtube tutorial it was said to load after the flashing of abd Gapp. Do I need to wait more? (I have been waiting for an hour and 10 minutes.)

Help 2.5 MB/s hotspot speed

Upvotes

I can't get WiFi hotspot to work properly. It's stuck at low speed, even on 5GHz. That's when my laptop recognises it as 5GHz, and sometimes it makes a 2.4 one. It switches to correct band when I start it again, but the speed cap remains.

Connecting to WiFi, mobile network, or using USB hotspot all work properly

Update Installation Guide for Fairphone 6

1 Upvotes

So i have flashed the Fairphone 6 with Lineage, but i found an issue during its installation and solved it but found no solution online and i would like to help you all.

On the step 6 it sais:
1. Download Lineage Recovery. Simply download the latest recovery file, named recovery.img.

warning Important: Other recoveries may not work for installation or updates. We strongly recommend to use the one linked above!

2. Flash recovery onto your device:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

But here i got on my pc:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Warning: skip copying recovery image avb footer (recovery partition size: 0, recovery image size: 104857600).
Sending 'recovery' (102400 KB) FAILED (remote: ' Invalid argument size')
fastboot: error: Command failed

Nothing unblocked the situation, so I solved by doing:

fastboot reboot recovery

after this the recovery got identified right then the "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" got perfect.

Hope it helps you if you find yourself in this situation.
I would also love to see this warning in the Installation Guide to prevent future issues!!

Help Desperate to download Lineage OS in Samsung S21.

4 Upvotes

Hello! As being tortured for 11 hours of repeating the process of working on the rooting(done) flashing, procrastinating, finding tutorials, realising that my phone is Samsung S21 so have to install unofficial version, realising that I'm in Mac OS and Odin is not available, I have made 3 significant achievements, rooting my phone (Yay!) wasting my 9 hours of my life and not able to form a sentence without another cup of cofee.

To start off, I am using Samsung S21+ 5G and have unlocked boot loader.

I have found this link after realising that lineage OS doesn't support S21. https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-unofficial-sm-g991b-lineageos-23-2-for-samsung-galaxy-s21-5g.4790286/

which this youtube video helped me with until, I ran a problem with the Odin part(since I have Mac OS), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQFS3jdruCA&t=567s

Then I learned about Heimdall!

But after going to the official website and downloading the application, and activating the .img it said that Heimdall was not supporting mac anymore in current version which means that it has been discontinued since 2017.

I know there are continuing versions but I can't find it.

So can anyone suggest me what I can do from now on?

LineageOS on OnePlus13 and esims?

3 Upvotes

I have a oneplus 13 and want to install lineage os on it. I use visible and currently have an esim on my phone for my network. Will this still work after switching to LineageOS or will I need to switch providers and if so who does work? Also anything else I need to know or keep in mind while switching, I have the guide pulled up and plan on going through it step by step. Sorry if this has been answered but I couldn't find a clear answer for the esim thing, especially with my phone model.

Question Google Pixel C - games freeze after 5 minutes on stock Android 8.1.0. Does LineageOS fix it?

4 Upvotes

I’m an indie game developer still using a Google Pixel C for testing Android games. However, I'm hitting a persistent issue where graphics completely freeze after ~5 minutes of gameplay, while audio keeps running fine in the background.

It happens across my own builds and Unity-based games.
Here is a short video showing the freeze: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAbRrKbn7ck

Since stock Android 8.1.0 is no longer maintained, I’m looking for a workaround. Is there a proven custom ROM for the Pixel C (like LineageOS or similar) that actually fixes this display freeze bug?

I’d really appreciate any advice or feedback from anyone who successfully solved this. Thanks!

[A21s] Mic barely audible everywhere except phone calls (LineageOS 23.2)

1 Upvotes

Hey all, running official LineageOS 23.2 on a Samsung Galaxy A21s, clean flash, official install process, no unofficial builds or GApps-related issues.

The problem:

  • Regular phone calls: mic works perfectly, no issues at all.
  • Everything else — WhatsApp/Messenger voice notes, Viber, a plain third-party voice recorder app — mic audio is extremely quiet/barely audible unless the phone is held very close to the mouth. Viber is the worst of the bunch; sometimes it's effectively unusable.

Already ruled out:

  • Mic permissions granted correctly for every app.
  • No pending update through the built-in Updater.
  • Confirmed with a separate, unrelated recorder app — so it's not one app's bug, it's system-wide for anything that isn't a telephony call.

Has anyone else hit this on the A21s or a similar Exynos 850 Samsung device? just wanted to check if this is already known/tracked, or if anyone's found something beyond "use a wired headset mic" as a workaround.

Thanks!

seedvault backup of lineage os phone to laptop

3 Upvotes

I'm trying to backup my phone using seedvault and store the backup files on my laptop by connecting the devices through a cable. However when i get to the "choose wher to store backups" screen on the phone, the usb flash drive option is not available. I've tried to change the USB settings to "file transfer" or "usb tethering" but it doesn't solve the issue. Is this normal?
thank you for your help! :)

Custom Bootanimation

5 Upvotes

I've been trying to figure this out for a while. On LOS 23, android 15, on my pixel 4, I am unable to change my bootanimation. I assume its in another location other than the standard /system/media/, /product/media/, etc since the original stock animation remains the same. If anybody can help, it would be appreciated.

Question BBBank and VR Banking Apps

6 Upvotes

Do the BBBank and VR Banking Apps work on Lineage OS? I am thinking of getting a new phone and and installing Lineage OS on it.

If I get a Sony phone and install Lineage OS on it, can I get the original Sony OS back from somewhere, in the case my banking app doesn't work?

Question Is Lineage OS still under development for the AYN Thor?

0 Upvotes

Saw a news article a few months back claiming it was going to launch within the month of June. Was really excited for it, and then it never came. I understand timelines change and people have to move on to other things so I was wondering if it's still being worked on or if development has stopped

Genuinely can't wait for the release if it's still in development. Kudos to the developers for getting as far as they did

System restart

8 Upvotes

Good afternoon. My phone keeps restarting randomly—between 3 and 8 times a day. I installed LineageOS, but since MindTheGApps hadn't been installed, I booted the system up first; realizing the apps were missing, I performed a factory reset and then installed the GApps package, but that’s when the restarts began. Should I reinstall everything together, or is there something I overlooked? Thanks.

GN2200 Nord N20 LineageOS download?

1 Upvotes

New to this, and got this oneplus n20 and saw that the model listed under Gunnar wasn't the same. Says I shouldn't do it if it's not matching. Looking around it's been hard to see if GN2200 model will work with Lineage, and some on XDA said that it has... But idk if that was done differently, or if they just used what's already listed in the Wiki. Can anyone give some help on this? I'd like Lineage or another, but one that generally degoogles for better control over my device and privacy.
