Hi, how update Lineage OS 16 to 17.1 without losing data?

I do not understand this, see the screenshots
[G3 Android Development] LZ_:
Take a look at

https://www.xda-developers.com/lineageos-17-1-android-10-officially-available/
[G3 Android Development] IssacZachary:
I did this just a couple days ago.

I downloaded the appropriate LineageOS Zip File with my computer and then copied it to my phone's memory via a USB cord (I put them in the Download folder so I can find them). Note that there are different LineageOS downloads for different LG G3 phones. Mine is the D851 by T-Mobile, for an example.

I also downloaded the appropriate GApps Zip File by picking "ARM", "10.0" and in my case "Nano" with my computer. Then I copied that over to the phone's memory via a USB cord, (also to the Download folder).

Next I should have backed up everything, but I didn't.

Then I shut off the phone and booted into recovery mode. I already had TWRP on my phone since I had already installed Lineage 15 and 16 on it before. To boot into recovery I hold the power button and down volume button together until I see the logo screen. Then I let up and immediately press those same two buttons again and the next thing I see is a screen asking if I want to completely reset the phone. I say yes and then yes and it doesn't delete everything because it has TWRP.

Once in TWRP, I go to "Install" then look up the LineageOS 17 zip file I had put in the Download Folder. I select that then swipe to install. Then after that finishes, I go back and do the same thing to the GApps zip file and swipe to install it too. Then I press reboot and let the phone reboot into LineageOS 17.

I hope that helps.

I'm having a problem with the phone's updater not working since I upgraded to LineageOS 17.1. Yesterday and today I've downloaded the latest nightlies (April 7th and 8th) of LineageOS 17.1. But when I hit "update" it turns off like it's going to update but then just boots back into LineageOS without going through TWRP to install the latest update.

I have a D851 running LineageOS 17.1 April 6, 2020.

Any ideas as to why? Could it be because I did a dirty flash? Any ideas to fix this?
[G3 Android Development] eric93se:
Update twrp
[G3 Android Development] eric93se:
Just a friendly warning to fellow flashers, on the LOS website next to the rom download is "lineage recovery" which is not the same as TWRP recovery. I flashed it and had to side load TWRP back on to the phone because I didn't like how minimalist the lineage recovery was.
[G3 Android Development] hiroglifix:
Restarting in RECOVERY

Or LineageOS UPDATE's automatic booting into recovery doesn't work

it used to

but not after i got LineageOS 17.1 on it

i tried on both TWRP 3.3.1 and Lineage Recovery.

Anyone has same problem? is any fix in the works?
[G3 Android Development] SDMonza:
Confirmed, I see the same issue on 2 different vs985 phones as well. I'm 99% certain the reboot to recovery option worked with the unofficial build of 17.1.
[G3 Android Development] IssacZachary:
Thanks for the suggestion, and I see I need to do that.

But I'm still having a problem with getting LineageOS nightlies to update.

I checked and saw that I had TWRP 3.1.1-0.

So I downloaded TWRP 3.3.1-20200316-d851.img and put it in my Download folder.

I rebooted into Recovery (TWRP)

I went to "Install" at top left corner.

I selected "Install Image" in bottom right corner.

I selected the twrp-3.3.1-20200316-d851.img file.

In "Select Partition to Flash Image" I selected "Recovery"

I swiped to confirm Flash.

After [IMAGE FLASH COMPLETE] I selected "Reboot System".

Phone booted into LineageOS 17.1 April 6th, 2020 nightly.

I tried to update to the latest (April 9th, 2020) nightly again, and again it didn't.

I went to the Updater and hit Download on the latest nightly.

After it downloaded I hit install.

The Phone did not update, it did not reboot into TWRP recovery but instead rebooted into LineageOS as has been the problem.

I tried it again (A and B) but it again did not update (just as in C).

So I decided to check out TWRP to see if I had successfully flashed the latest version of TWRP, so I turned off the phone.

When I booted into recovery it was the new version of TWRP (3.3.1-0)*.

Also to my surprise it did not go to the TWRP Recovery menu, but instead began updating LineageOS to the latest Nightly.

The phone then reboots into the latest LineageOS Nightly (April 9th, 2020, yes I checked in the updater.)

So the question is now if it will do the same for the next nightly or not.

*I edited this because I had made the mistake of thinking that flashing over the latest version of TWRP wasn't working because I thought the number was the same. It turns out it did flash to the 3.3.1-0 version so I no longer have the 3.1.1-0 version on my phone.
[G3 Android Development] Ph3ar.:
What model number of your phone ? Mine does the same thing on LS990 .
[G3 Android Development] alliance1975:
Installed LOS recovery. How to get back to TWRP recovery. ADB will not reboot to recovery.

Edit: I got it to work. Somehow the LOS recovery was able to flash twrp recovery. I'm back to 16.0 for now. Will wait and see what happens.
[G3 Android Development] astrod:
I can confirm that LOS 16 works very well on my D851. Thank you HardStyl3r for your work. My only issues are Bluetooth occasionally disconnecting / crashing, and the gravity, acceleration, and rotation sensors do not work. Can I fix the sensors by installing the stock ROM listed in the OP and then reinstalling LOS 16?
[G3 Android Development] HardStyl3r:
Yes, it should work. Before going to LineageOS, check on Stock ROM is everything's working correctly.
[G3 Android Development] HardStyl3r:
The new update 11/04 would require you to dirty flash it manually. It has fixed kernel which includes reboot fix. That's why you couldn't get OTA to work. Sorry for the inconvenience.
[G3 Android Development] IssacZachary:
Thanks [MENTION=6880495]HardStyl3r[/MENTION] ! Just a question. If I dirty flash the 11/Apr. update do I need to also flash GApps again if I already have an older update of LineageOS 17.1 that I flashed with GApps?

Also, as would be expected, I tried to update to the 10th of April update today and it didn't work. So I retried it and this time when the phone turned itself off I immediately held the down volume and power buttons together, then released and held them again when I saw the LG logo. The phone then booted into TWRP and updated itself. Unless someone else sees a problem updating it this way, but it seems like an easy way to bypass the update problem and force the phone to update itself.
[G3 Android Development] HardStyl3r:
If the "older update of LineageOS" is the official nightly, then you should be fine. To be honest, I have never dirty flashed with GApps.
[G3 Android Development] YukiCRO:
I've downloaded latest build from their site and notice problems.

Recent actions, when swiping to the left and using Clear All option, it doesn't clear it. The apps are still in recents until new app is opened or all must be cleared by swiping up.

Don't know if it's a bug or something...
[G3 Android Development] sennamagger:
[MENTION=6880495]HardStyl3r[/MENTION] ,thx for the hard work men , realy thx a lot , today flash the last version 17.1 on my D855 and works fine for me, make a dirty flash, just i delete some apk from sistem i don't use, and all are ok.

Thx a lot buddy .

Well bad news, 2 hours later the ping to unlock the phone, no work just freeze and the screen turn of 3 times after that works fine.

I flash the magisk module of sony music , after that reboot in botloop,

Restore to LOS 16.
[G3 Android Development] sennamagger:
Well i reinstall 17.1 today, when run uninstall magisk just reboot into botloop, i think thats may be the cause of inestability.

I try to unistall magisk before upgrade to 17.1, just wait to charge the batery
[G3 Android Development] eric93se:
Hardstyl3r, just wondering what's up with all those merges and if you were going to look through them?
[G3 Android Development] HardStyl3r:
What merges?
[G3 Android Development] sennamagger:
Well, this metod work for me in a dirty flash, but the updater still not working

[MENTION=6880495]HardStyl3r[/MENTION], for install the new update we need flash gapps to? or only the rom?
[G3 Android Development] eric93se:

[G3 Android Development] HardStyl3r:
Dirty flash is enough I think. What happens with the updater?

They don't need to be addressed. These are LineageOS changes and the device changes I do are posted in the changelog.
[G3 Android Development] IssacZachary:
Yesterday I updated to the 11th of April 2020 nightly by my own method I've mentioned before (use the updater like normal until it shuts off, then I hold the down volume and power buttons and let them up and hold them back down when I see the logo screen).

Today I updated to the 12th of April 2020 nightly the normal way, and I can confirm that the "restar into Lineage without updating" problem has been resolved! The phone updated just fine without any need to dirty flash or force it to go into recovery when rebooting like I did. :)

The only "problem" I've had since I upgraded from LineageOS 16 nightlies to the 17.1 nightlies is that I have to let the phone sit a while after rebooting before unlocking it. If I try to put in my pin right after rebooting it will just sit there and do nothing until the screen goes black and then I can try it again. It only takes a minute or two though to start working correctly.

Hi, today I did a clean flash of my d855 and updated it from unofficial 17.1 to lineage-17.1-20200412-nightly-d855-signed.zip, after the update, I found that my sd card is not accessible anymore, does anyone having the same issue? Is there any fix?

Thanks DEV team for the great rom!

[G3 Android Development] jmawhorter:
Any suggestions when device encryption may be working. It seemed to fail on my lineageos 17.1 with a d852 and I saw a mention in the TWRP thread about Android 10 encryption being not recommended for now. Is that a temporary problem? Are others having the same problem?
[G3 Android Development] sennamagger:
Hi, today flash using updater and work perfectly , exellent job , thanks
[G3 Android Development] macoloco:
Hi...big thanx to [MENTION=6880495]HardStyl3r[/MENTION] ....now i have a d855 with lineageOs 17 working.....

Just a little "first world complaint", sorry.....I use double tap to wake and sleep my phone....I have 2 d855.....one with LOS16 (it works flawless) and the other with LOS17, i double tap and the device wakeup, but to sleep double tapping is only working in status bar (like settings says) but until now in d855 double tapping was working in anywhere on screen (not only status bar or lock screen)

can anyone fix this, plz?
[G3 Android Development] Max Frost:
[MENTION=6880495]HardStyl3r[/MENTION] , Wanted to ask if the LS990 will get 17.1 ? If not will we continue to get version 16 weekly updated builds ? Last build was April 3rd so thought I would ask . Your work has been much appreciated . Thank you .
[G3 Android Development] IssacZachary:
I don't know if you have the same problem as I do, but I've had a weird SD card problem since Lineage 16 on my LG G3 D851. What happens to me is when the phone reboots for any reason (update, because I shut it off and turned it back on, etc.) it says there's no SD card. Sometimes rebooting the phone does the trick and it recongnizes the SD card. But what I've been doing lately is before an automatic reboot (updating) I just eject the SD card in settings and then physically remove the SD card. If I turn the phone off manually I just take out the SD card with the phone. Then once the phone has rebooted I wait a little while and then put the SD card back in.

One thing I learned the hard way is to not touch the SD card with the phone on unless I've ejected the SD card. I thought that if the phone didn't recognize the SD card that I could just take it out and slip it back in and the phone would recognize it. Instead I ended up with a bad SD card. And since it happened when I removed it with the phone on I figured that that is what damaged the SD card somehow. Now I can't ever reformat the SD card, it's dead and I have no idea of how to fix it. But so far this SD card has lasted by just taking it out with either the phone off or after ejecting it then inserting it once the phone is back on and fully functional.

On another note:

Today I updated to the 14th of April nightly and now it runs hot and eats batteries like a pizza at a kid's party. I put in a fully charged good battery before going to work and 4 hours later it was dead even though I hadn't even used it. I tried another battery and turn on "battery saver" and "airplane mode" and it still died quickly with the phone hot to the touch.

Does anyone else have this problem?
[G3 Android Development] eebright:
I think I am having the same problem as yours, thanks for the hints!
[G3 Android Development] HardStyl3r:
TWRP is not fully compatible with Android 10 yet, it brought many changes.

ls990 is currently Weekly lineage-16.0. I don't control the build process. ls990 seems to have strange reboot issues, I got great feedback from one user when I asked Sprint users to test the build many times.

Hi, in D855 , los17.1 14042020 , overheat and low charge battery, battery drain just using chrome ...
[G3 Android Development] eric93se:
Awesome work hardstyl3r, my D850 runs great on the 4/14 build. I think it runs a few degrees C cooler than previous builds.

:cool:
[G3 Android Development] sennamagger:
Hi, and yes it works, but in my case D855 no work the latest version of VFA .

1- freeze the audioFX native apk

2- in magisk v20.4 find and dowload Audio Modification Library

3- dowload and install https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx , just follow the apk intructions .

Thats are the only way works for me :good:
[G3 Android Development] IssacZachary:
Ya, my D851 is still hot to the touch and drains batteries constantly by not even doing anything ever since the 14th of April update (and I did the 15th and 16th so far). At most I have 2 to 3 hours of battery life on a full charge with a good battery.

Any suggestions?
[G3 Android Development] sennamagger:
Hi, i don't know...the only thing is recalibrate the battery , i do that but...no see any difference
[G3 Android Development] IssacZachary:
Well, since my phone is still running hot and I don't dare use it unless it's tethered to the wall I decided to do a clean install of LineagOS 17.1. I, so I wiped Dalvik / ART Cache, Cache, Data, Internal Storage, and System . And now I'm flashing over the most current nightly of LineageOS and GApps. I'll probably try to keep from installing apps to a minimum as much as possible, and just download the necessary ones one day at a time at most. I want to see if maybe some app in particular was causing the phone to run hot or if it was LineageOS. I guess we'll find out!

My phone is booting up right now into LineageOS.

Ok! LineageOS has booted! Time to start setting up Android. So far so good!

Update:

So far I've noticed the phone runs much, much cooler and the battery lasts much, much longer with the clean install of LineageOS 17.1. I already went ahead and installed all my apps and so far it is still running very cool with great battery life.
[G3 Android Development] sennamagger:
Hi, you do a clean install from andoid 6 or los 16?
[G3 Android Development] IssacZachary:
Of course since you'll be wiping the phone clean, first backup any photos and other files since EVERYTHING will be erased from the phone. I personally just plug the phone into a computer and then copy the whole phone's storage over to my computer. That way I can just copy whatever I need to back to the phone when done.

If in stock Android 6 Marshmellow I suggest this Linus Tech Tips tutorial:

https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1058206-lg-g3-lineageos-tutorial/

Make sure you download and flash over the latest version of TWRP like the tutorial says (which is as of this post version 3.3.1). I had originally made the mistake of using an older TWRP that came with the Purple Drake Root for my D851 and ended up bricking the phone.

If you already have TWRP on the phone, version new or old, then you probably don't need to downgrade to Android Kit Kat 4.4 to root it. IF YOU HAVE AN OLDER VERSION OF TWRP then just copy the latest TWRP zip or image file over to your phone's memory and then reboot into recovery. Then in your old TWRP recovery just flash over the new TWRP file that you put on your phone and reboot.

One thing to note in that tutorial, in case you didn't notice, it says to download GApps for Android 8.1. But of course with LineageOS 17.1 you'll want GApps ARM>Android 10>Nano.

Since a clean install involves wiping the Internal Storage you'll also need a way of getting the latest LineageOS zip file and GApps zip file over onto the phone instead of downloading it to your internal storage. One way you can do that is to use ADB from a computer. But what works for me is to put the LineageOS and GAps zip files on an SD card, and then I insert that into the phone and then I mount the SD card from TWRP. I suggest doing this and then seeing if you can see your LineageOS and GApps zip files in TWRP before you wipe the phone. That way you'll be sure you can install them after wiping (as long as you don't wipe the external SD card too.)
[G3 Android Development] sennamagger:
OK ,im now in 17.1 , i think in flash my BU of andoid 6, after install Los17.1 again

anyone else ?
[G3 Android Development] Af0x:
Is there currently any working way to upgrade an encrypted device from 16.0 to 17.1 without reinstalling?

I tried upgrading using the official instructions and TWRP 3.3.1 for my d855 and now it doesn´t accept my decryption-PIN anymore. Of course I have no backup :)

My thoughts are that maybe with the Lineage Recovery I have more luck. Further I ask myself if I can "unbrick" my current device somehow.

Any help very much appreciated.
