You'll only see that if your provider actuality supports VoLTE. In my case, my provider doesn't support it (I asked them). Only thing is, that, during a phone call, LTE drops to 3g/H+. After call it switches back to LTE. I'm told that LTE/4g doesn't really support phone calls, just data. That why they invented Voice over LTE, or in short VoLTE. But if VoLTE doesn't work, it automatically switches back to 3g. That's common behavior.

I heard that there's one bad provider in India that actually forces you to use VoLTE (JIO). That one doesn't switch back. It makes it impossible to make phonecalls if your phone/rom doesn't support VoLTE. So, is you live in India and love stability: stay away from JIO!

I've been using voice over lte just fine on the stock rom so I know my carrier supports it. This is strange
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] smitharro:
But possibly there's a difference between stock rom and LineageOS. But for me everything works the same as in stock... But yeah, I can't use VoLTE with my provider.[emoji15]

Is reception in calls clear? Does LTE calling work? To the devs,have you ensured that 911 calls work on Verizon?

I'm asking because these were all problems with the stock ROM on Verizon as recently as last month, and I want to know whether this ROM's baseband firmware is fully up-to-date with the fixes for them before installing.

New unofficial build - 5 June 2019 security patches

New unofficial build is up now with the June 2019 security patches.

Android File Host - lineage-14.1-20190616-UNOFFICIAL-potter.zip

Dropbox - lineage-14.1-20190616-UNOFFICIAL-potter.zip

Note for availability of the next builds

If you're wondering when the next build will be, one thing to do is to check the Lineage repos for the latest security string, e.g. go to https://www.lineageoslog.com/14.1 and look for a change such as "Bump Security String to 2019-06-05" (that's the latest one there at this point).

If you see that the security string has been applied (e.g. the next one will be 2019-07-05 or possibly just 2019-07-01) then I will do a new build. As a general rule, not much changes in the repos these days so I use the security string update as a prompt to do a new build.

Once a build is complete, it will be automatically loaded up to my Dropbox folder here:

i'm coming from Android Pie builds and wanted to give this a shot. It flashes correctly, but can't seem to get SIM card to detect. Is it because I was previous on Oreo and this is Nougat? Is there a flashable file to get back to nougat?

Has someone done lately what I'm considering:

upgrading from LineageOS 14.1 to a Pie-ROM, preference LineageOS 16 and can give his personal impression on battery life, camera performance & features, MicroG, etc. ?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] hypoxia_:
I went the other way around from 15 to 16 and back to 14. LineageOS 14 has given me more stability and battery time because of the lesser customization, with Pie I was always fiddling with my phone. Pie's Camera app was more responsive, 14 feels sluggish opening and taking photos. I don't use MicroG (Just F-droid) so no comment.

I didn't care for the newer features, newer customization and the where certain settings are located.

Need your advise ? plz
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] NZedPred:
If you want to use this rom from stock Oreo, other than unlocking, you have to do a clean install of stock nougat first. Just use the latest version from here that have the aroma installer - they are the safest and will preserve your IMEI:

https://xdaforums.com/g5-plus/development/twrp-flashable-stock-builds-t3813351

how about if i unlock the bootloader and twrp this rom ? will the finger print work? because lately, i tried so many nougat roms the finger print unlock was broken . although rest of all options worked fine .

regards
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] NZedPred:
No it won't work. You need the nougat blobs for the fingerprint to work properly, hence the step to flash stock nougat. This is true for all nougat and oreo custom roms.
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] pintspin:
thanks for your guidance what if i use the RDS lite to flash the nougat stock ? over oreo would it be a good idea or it wont work

I've flashed Havoc-OS, ArrowOS, PixelExperience, EvolutionX...and while each had its perks, I also found that they weren't very kind on my variant. Of course, there's less customisation available here, but that's a weak argument since what good does a customisable ROM offer if it isn't stable?

Is potter some sort of a nickname?
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] smitharro:
Many devices have a name like this. The G5 Plus is Potter, the G4(Plus) is Athene, The G2 is Titan and so on. Not only Motorola devices have these names, other brands also.

That makes it way easier identifying. For instance 'Potter' is not only the XT1685 (mine), but also the XT1686 and more. Firmware however generally works on all versions of 'Potter'. It has nothing to do with the great Wizard of J.K Rowling!

Another thing: I noticed that boottimes are way better now!

[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
Oh yes you're right ! 20 seconds of moto boot logo then 30 seconds of Lineage boottime... It's perfect ! Does anyone have an idea how to reduce the time I see the boot logo ? I flashed a boot logo to remove the "unlocked bootloader" message but it is still long....
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] smitharro:
I'm afraid we can't change that. Though you can change the warning of the unlocked bootloader (just like you and I did), you can't remove it. In my case this message lasts only 5 to 10 seconds. Not 30 seconds....

Boottimes can possibly be even better after a "clean" install! I didn't try that until now however. I need my phone and I must be heading for Amsterdam to do my evening shift... But possibly i'll try a clean flash tomorrow!
[Moto G5 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :

Thank you.

Also, the current issues for the unofficial LOS (this rom) is just the camera, right? If so, I'll flash it.
