does anyone know if lineageOS plans to adopt the android 7.0 update system, having 2 partitions? is this even possible on AOSP?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] kedar a.k.a. 3K:
I think right now it's implemented only in pixel and most older phones just do not have that much ROM size to implement it

Not really. I tried to apply themes and it was fine at first, but then I got my phone bootlooped.

Lineage OS 14.1 Update 2017/06/16

Well, I'm still waiting for some way to fix the microphone during video recordings. I used my cell phone extensively for video recordings. For God's sake try to fix this problem. If possible, give an improvement on the camera, I was taking a look at the forums and I found a post with the name: "Highspeed Recording Moto X 2014", so I saw, it is a mod that greatly improves the camera, giving to record with a framerate Much bigger and with higher quality too! This ROM becomes completely obsolete if it brings problems and not solutions. Still awaiting!

"Does lineage supports OMS substratum?"

Some Substratum themes are upgrading to work on Lineage OS 14.1 (Android 7.1.2), at the moment I bought the "Swift Black Theme" and it is working perfectly, all the system menus and applications are completely black, I did it because besides being beautiful, it diminishes a little the use of the battery because of the Amoled display.

"Regarding battery, they don't last forever.

Guess what, the more you use your device, the more it will degrade. And then comes the time to replace them.

Again not the fault of the OS, that your device is dying suddenly. Although, sometimes battery recalibration helps."

I bought this device less than two months, I assure you, the degradation of the battery did not happen so fast! Repeating again, I got all these problems after installing this ROM on my device!

I totally agree!

No issues here with microphone and recording videos
[X 2014 Original Android Development] RockyTV:
Can you show me where it says Lineage has a better battery duration? Remember that you're using an unstable build.

---------- Post added at 03:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 AM ----------

Do you mean the A/B update system? It's in the works, you can search for it at their Gerrit.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] G4 Man2:
Just to get this out of the way, no older devices are getting seamless updates / the A/B update system. None. It would require a modified partition table and would deem all ROMs not made for the new partition table incompatible. Not to mention that the device would be hard bricked if something went wrong while changing the partition table.

If you're having so many issues, go back to stock.

Complaining about a FREE service is going to get you no where and just discourage devs from helping you. Custom ROMs are for enthusiasts that are willing to work around small inconveniences to get updates before they are released (if ever) from their OEMs. If you want something fixed faster, it's open source. Pull the sources and fix it. Upload it for others. Win win.

I am reporting the bugs to be fixed and giving ideas of what can be done to improve the ROM, if nobody does this, nothing will be fixed! From the moment you put something in a place for the public to use, you are subject to criticism, be they good or bad, so do not be angry with criticism. Forgetting this subject, here is a possible output for the microphone problem during recordings:

[IMG="Cinema FV-5 App"]https://uploaddeimagens.com.br/images/000/958/470/original/IMG_20170621_134402.jpg?1498063900[/IMG]

After disabling this option in the "Cinema FV-5 Lite", it is possible to make video recordings with the audio working, but the audio looks horribly poor even if placed in the best possible quality. Apparently the problem is related to this. While the battery, I do not have the slightest idea, it can be the kernel unstable, because a few times it reaches 1%, but most of the time it simply shuts off "from nowhere" when it reaches the 30% battery.

"I thought this ROM was supposed to update, "get better", but this seems not to be the case. Think the Devs have thrown this phone on the back burner."

I still agree with this comment and there is nothing that can be said for me to change my mind. If this ROM is not being developed to "be better" than stock, why waste time developing something that will give you less performance, less battery life, less customization, problems, and instabilities? This is MY point of view, you are free to disagree, even because it will not change anything in my personal life. Peace.

[X 2014 Original Android Development] defdice:
The 6/16 is working great for me. Actually, they all have after the march hiccup. Battery life has been way better than stock, but I'm not snapchatting all day. Bought my phone back in June 2015. I do have Google assistant, Verizon service, Signal messenger, Google hangouts, and my email set to manually sync. I do use Privacy settings to keep some apps from running at startup/syncing in the background. Waited all day to post these battery screen shots, since it took that long to get to 1% (see clocks). Never had a shut down anywhere near 20-30%, although I have never left it plugged in overnight. Also haven't done substratum/theming. Heavy use (google maps and a lot of picture messages) will knock it down to a day and a half of battery. Tends to drop 3-5% over night, less if you put it face down.

Also, camera works great and does not make weird noises when recording video. I recommend https://xdaforums.com/moto-g/general/how-to-unlock-advanced-camera-settings-t2884035 for the camera though - love the moto camera.

[X 2014 Original Android Development] RockyTV:
I was thinking if my phone was reaching its "dead state" (when it's time to buy a new one to replace it), and talking to my friend I realized that the Moto X 2014 has a serious problem with battery.

He told me his phone was at 50% charged, then suddenly it dropped to 1%. After plugging in the charger and waiting a few minutes, it was at 50% battery again. He used it for ~2 hours and it still was at 100%. He's using the stock ROM.

I noticed something similar yesterday: I was at 43% battery when I launched an app and my phone rebooted. It happened 3 times and in the last one, it was at 1% battery. I turned it off, waited a bit and turned it back on. Battery was at 42%. I turned on battery saver and could use it just fine. I plugged in a turbo charger and after reaching 100%, it was "killed" again: dropped to 1%, until it finally shutdown.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] G4 Man2:
It's something that happens to all older devices. The maximum capacity of batteries lower over time and Android just does a really bad job of "calibration" to check what the maximum capacity currently is and it gives you a percentage of battery left based on that.

Even if a phone hasn't been used much and is just sitting there it still loses some of it's maximum capacity; that's the trade off lithium Ion batteries make, performance over lifespan. The estimated lifespan of a lithium ion battery is 2-3 years and we've just about reached that 3 year mark.

The only thing you can do to fix this issue is try one of the million different ways to coax Android into properly calibrating the battery so you'll have a better idea of when your phone is going to shut off. Other than that you can replace the battery but really it's probably a better idea to spend money on a new phone rather than a new battery. We've reached the point where better phones are coming out at the same price this phone was, even when it was subsidized by a carrier.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] :
Hello! I am using the last build of this ROM and I noticed a slight difference in the performance of the battery, I still have problems with the instant shut downs when the battery level reaches 25 - 30%, a few times the battery can reach up to 1%, but it is something very difficult to happen. The camera problem persists, and I already know what it is. It is something related to the standard microphone that will be used for recording, in an application called "Bacon Camera" it is possible to change which microphone will be used. The default setting already comes in "Default microphone", I just switched from "Default Microphone" to "Main Microphone", it worked perfectly! In the "Open Camera" the change of the microphones did not work and continued with the noise, I will use the "Bacon Camera" while this bug is fixed. Going back to the subject, what did you guys think of the battery? Did it last long or short? (The smartphone turned itself off after I took these screenshots) I used it without stopping in any moment, I put the screen time for 30 minutes and I put videos on YouTube to watch, I was browsing my Facebook and using my WhatsApp too, the screen brightness It was in the middle. Do you think 4:30h of battery is a good time? Remembering again that I made continuous use of the smartphone. Below are some screenshots with the stats (Sorry for the portuguese language, hope you can understand):

Oh, I would like to request something that does not seem to be complicated to do, but that would help me SO MUCH! Would it be possible to add the "Open Application Drawer" option in the "Long Press" settings of the "Home" button? Because my home screen is completely black (lockscreen too, no clock, no date, no status bar, invisible navbar...), I edited the button to open the application drawer for a completely transparent .png file, so the home screen goes completely black, sometimes it's hard to press the button, the "Home" button is very easy to press. This option is present in the "Nova Launcher". Thanks for the attention and good work. Peace.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] shawndak:
The Microphone change sounds like a perfect fix, hope devs see that!

Your OST is about right for these phones.

For your second request, no. You have a very odd setup and literally only you would use the Open App Drawer. I highly doubt they would add that. Use a different launcher, or change your settings.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] :
shawndak said:

"For your second request, no. You have a very odd setup and literally only you would use the Open App Drawer."

I agree, it's a strange setup. Hahahah

But I think it costs nothing, since this was present in CM13 and has several other options there in the menu. But I bought and I'm using the "New Launcher Prime", no problem if they do not add it. :) By the way, something that is necessary for this ROM, is the Navbar with the totally transparent background (or an option to leave it like this), because this way it will avoid the burn-in, something very common in the Amoled displays, ghosts or spots in the screen due to a static image. It is very common to affect the region where the battery icon and navbar are located. But it's something to discuss later, but I expect developers to see that too.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] RockyTV:
I have a Moto X 2014 since it released and still no burn-in. Why add a "feature" to avoid such common thing? It's like asking to stop users from installing apps because they drain battery and draining a certain amount of battery can damage your phone.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] shawndak:
Same here. Do AMOLED screen experience burn in? I've literally never heard of a single phone having "burn in".
[X 2014 Original Android Development] G4 Man2:
All OLED panels experience burn-in. It has gotten better with each revision but we are using panels from 3 years ago. A lot of users (including myself) experience burn-in on the bottom of the screen where the navbar is because it's pretty much always there. There are precautions you can take to prevent burn-in like keeping your brightness low and having your screen timeout set to a shorter amount of time but it is a flaw that shows up more and more the longer you have used the panel (if you don't take precautions).

Though the burn-in problem has been minimized with each revision, even the latest Samsung phones have the navbar keys slightly move to prevent it. I don't think that feature would have been implemented if OLED burn-in was uncommon or unheard of.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] natalia86:
question... I recently noticed that only two of all my icons are round, the camera icon and the calendar icon. any reason why this is so? all my other icons are regular android icons.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] dego_:
Actually this is a great trick, of which I haven't heard before. I have 40+ apps on my phone and putting these restrictions only on few of them improved my battery life a lot. Thanks for mentioning this!
[X 2014 Original Android Development] Gus Ghanem:
Lineage OS doesn't have a theme or icon pack, so you just see the default app icons, even Google's own apps are not all round. Google's own phones, like the Pixel, come with an "icon pack" that makes them all round.

In the pics, AudioFX, Camera, Files, Recorder, are Lineage or AOSP apps, the rest are Google Play Store apps, including Pixel Launcher.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] natalia86:
Thanks! I also noticed that the calendar icon changes days! :)
[X 2014 Original Android Development] Gus Ghanem:
Overlay Manager Service?

So, will we ever see OMS support, since the code already exists, or would it require too much extra work? (Testing, debugging, etc.)

LineageOMS: https://github.com/LineageOMS

(Sorry but I know nothing about programming, or building)

EDIT: I guess this answers it...

[X 2014 Original Android Development] shawndak:
So I finally turned "Keep Awake" off on Google Play Services in privacy guard and wow! Battery life went for 3 hours to 4.5 OST in first day and I have virtually no wake-ups. I've turned a lot of stuff off in privacy guard in the past but have been hesitant about turning off a google feature until 2 days ago.

I have not lost any functionality that I've noticed. I'm sure background nonsense wont run as well but I check my phone at-least every hour and it can refresh or update what it needs.

Settings, Privacy, Privacy Guard, Top right 3 dots, Advanced, Google Play services and scroll down to Keep Awake and uncheck it. Turning off Wifi scan took away my pixel launcher weather, so I left it running.

Also my battery has been discharging properly with no random shutoffs, not sure if new updates corrected that? I run it to 5% and charge.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] Jaytn:
Mine definitely has burn-in. I started to notice it about a year ago, that in full screen on even backgrounds, the area of the navbar has slightly different luminosity. I just looked for it again, and noticed that in the right conditions, I can now even make out the "ghost" shape of the nav buttons.

BUT. That is a very minor issue to me. It only is noticeable on even backgrounds and in low light conditions - ie when watching a video at night in bed. But even then it's not that distracting. I'd trade that immediately for the ability of OLED to be "truly off" which is much easier on the eyes at night.

I would recommend you looking up a video of solid colors on youtube and watching it at night (dark) and see if you can make out the "navbar" on your screen, I would be curious.

On another note: with the latest build (6-30) my NFC doesn't seem to work. When I go to network settings it is disabled, when enabling it the button turns "grey" (disabled") and after a few seconds jumps back to disabled. I don't have another NFC-enabled device to test whether it is actually not working, but the settings suggest so.

Is anyone else having this problem? I suspect it might be because I dirty flashed over a build on which I had the Evolution Kernel installed, but I'm trying to avoid wiping as usual^^
[X 2014 Original Android Development] RockyTV:
Might be your kernel, NFC is fine for me (June 30 build, Lineage kernel).
[X 2014 Original Android Development] Gus Ghanem:
NFC turns on and off normally, dirty flash from previous build. Just Delta Gapps, no modifications.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] shawndak:
Played a solid color video on YouTube, had to look pretty hard to see the light burn in, plus towards the end of the 2 minute cycle I couldn't even see it anymore. Extremely minute issue.

Hey everyone, using this phone and rom for a while till I get my pixel back. This rim seems to be very choppy and sluggish​, not all what I've experienced on liniage for other devices. Is this a common issue or and I alone?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] RockyTV:
Could you explain this "choppy and sluggish" behaviour?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] Legacystar:
App switching takes a long time. Opening messaging takes long. Scrolling side to side in home screen is choppy. Also intermittent studders in apps. It seems like a memory issue but ram usage looks normal. Battery life isn't great but nothing seems out of the ordinary in battery stats

I don't know if this is the right topic, but fell like I should share it with you anyway.

The only reason I abandoned LineageOS/Nougat was the lack of support for Xposed Framework.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] shawndak:
Very cool! Seems like a step in the right direction. Perhaps the lineage Devs will catch hint of this and push it out. Xposed is a huge benefit to any custom ROM. I would really love to used Amplify again!

Handwave gesture to activate ambient display, Is not much reactive, I have to pass my hand several times before the display turns on, As if the proximity sensor does not perceive any movement, I do not know if this is a desired behavior, since I found the same problem on other devices.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] RockyTV:
It doesn't make sense. If Lineage pushed for a default, rootless ROM, they won't push anything relating to Xposed. And if I'm not mistaken, Xposed exposes some vulnerabilities and the Lineage team themselves said allowing root by default has some vulnerabilities.

It's up to you to choose whether use Xposed or not. I'm pretty sure it works fine if you flash it yourself. I used it back in CM14.1 and it worked fine.
