[Shield Android TV Android Development] Steel01:
LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android, 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.

Instructions :

Reporting Bugs

DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed or Magisk

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 /sys/fs/pstore/console_ramoops. (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. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

Known Issues :

​

Boot hangs for 30-45 seconds on all variants except the 2015 models due to a ssl verification check.

Aosp Bluetooth auto-pair fails. This includes first boot when gapps are not installed and when pressing the pairing button on the 2015 models or the 2019 non-pro model. In those cases, a wired controller or keyboard is required to pair a new bluetooth remote. If gapps are installed, auto-pair during the gapps setup wizard works as expected.

In some rare setups, wpa 2/3 mixed mode networks cannot be connected to by the gapps setup wizard. Most notably, this has been observed on openwrt routers. These networks can be connected to fine by the aosp wifi wizard. And skipping network connection is now possible in the recommended gapps package. Afterwards, tvsettings can be used to connect to the network.

Frame rate matching in kodi causes the app to hang more often than not. This issue is being looked into slowly by both the Lineage maintainer and some kodi devs, but no solution has been found yet. Other apps that support nvidia's frame rate matching work as expected, such as smarttubenext.
