Recently I had this issue. At first my LOS rom was in slot B when Google voice was not responding. So I wipe slot A (system + data + cache), switch to slot B and then flash the rom from slot B so that it would be installed in slot A. Then I continued to flash magisk v16.6 and mindthegapps in slot A, and voila Google voice is able to recognized my voice. But if you ask me, Idk why it behaves like that.

I use CosmicDan twrp btw.

I've been running LineageOS for a couple days now and everything has being working great, but I have one problem.

I booted CosmicDan's TWRP and flashed the rom without TWRP survival (I want LineageOS recovery as it's simple and is guaranteed to play well with seamless OTA updates)

I then rebooted to bootloader and booted CosmicDan's TWRP again, I flashed MindTheGapps and rebooted.

Everything has been going smooth but I decided I wanted root, I don't want Magisk just the LineageOS su as it's simple and is officially supported.

I downloaded the addon from the LineageOS site and booted CosmicDan's TWRP, I flashed it and got this error:

Error on lsat of "/system/etc/init/superuser.rc": Too many symbolic links encountered. Updater process ended with ERROR: 7 Error installing zip file '/sdcard/addonsu-15.1-arm64-signed.zip'

I know other people got this error but is there any fix?

Yes, It's been said that they were fixing it in this very same thread a few pages back.

It's just got merged: https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/LineageOS/android_vendor_lineage/+/219342/

They just have to rebuild it.

No doubt why devs don't spend too much time here when people only complain and ask all the time for things without reading anything first.

Don't take it personally, It's a general behavior here.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Charles IV:
not sure I understand what you mean, but I made the commit you linked there because CosmicDans twrp was the only one that worked for me, and official didn't fastboot boot so I couldn't really try it.

I assume you may also be talking about this commit (you mentioned encryption), and I made this commit because when the phone is encrypted, Lineage recovery can't read internal storage (it doesn't decrypt anything), and thus you can't flash the zips such as gapps and magisk/su add-on from the device, requiring you to use adb sideload, or use twrp. I mentioned booting twrp as this means I don't have to explain flashing twrp to be permanent which may vary device to device, and it also means the lineage recovery can handle the ota update ... which I've just realised it may not be able to do if it is encrypted. (I forgot that ota updates are done in android on a/b devices, not recovery, so its fine)

FM radio app crashes

ROM works smooth, better than stock, but I found a bug, the stock FM radio doesn't work in my device, I plug the headphones and keep loading, I tried too with Spirit2FM and sends the message that kernel isn't compatible with FM Tuner. Thanks in advice devs. BTW, DT2W, IR Blaster, LED Notifications works fine, very funtional build.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LenAsh:
FM Radio works fine for me on this build and last unofficial from 23rd May. Use it regularly. Also works with Void kernel (not that this LOS requires it... the kernel is fine as is).

I always totally clean flash...
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] deag34960:
I did a clean flash too, with the wipes. It's the only bug that I found, so if do I change the kernel to Void kernel, will it works? I tried another app, Spirit2FM with Rooted Stock ROM and it works. What is the difference between both kernels? I have no idea what changes, thanks in advice.

When starting android, sometimes my IMEI disappears. What's wrong?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lupin The Third:
Keep in mind that this is only a "cosmetic" thing. It doesn't make the signal stronger or weaker.

The patch changes the way the signal is reported so the user doesn't notice those dreaded fluctuations. :)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] beeshyams:

Does it mean that the signal reception per-se is fine and is no cause for concern?

[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kal4metal:
I can confirm the signal problem. I live in Greece, everything works as they should, gps accuracy is awesome, signal is good, but during random moments it drops to zero, emergency calls only. And that happens to places where my other phones have adequate signal. It could be a cosmetic issue but if that's the case I suspect it "fools" the system not to make calls or drop the data internet. I hope it gets fixed in the next build, because it can be frustrating if you're travelling and you rely on google maps etc
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] aphocus:
Why is the process so prone to bricking? I flashed Lineage & gapps over unofficial ROM, now it wont boot, It erased TWRP, my cache partition seems to be missing (don't know if it's related).

Why can't this just work like it does on all my old devices, flash these two files, and only these two, why is TWRP overwritten with the ****ty lineageOS recovery with a buggy menus.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kopitalk:
It's your fault buying a phone with a/b partition. It's your fault flashing lineageOS in it. It's your fault not understanding the installation process.

You want simplicity? Buy a simple phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] AndroGeek911:
You must have missed out some steps. In my opinion it would have been better if you had stick with stock ROM untill Android P comes in. Trying Custom ROM starts only after phone stop getting updates in my case at least.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] aphocus:
I have followed the steps, that is the problem, they don't work, the entire point of the A-B system is to make it less likely to brick the phone, Google can handle these updates seamlessly.

I don't need kopitalk smart ass comment, I'm trying to understand, I'm sorry if I offended you, but I've been using custom ROMs since my Huawei Ideos U8150, but it's only now that I'm having trouble with them, I got the damned ROM working in the first place, the problem is following the same steps again, trying 100 different combinations, and it still refuses to boot the ROM.

These instructions don't work for me, and that is a fact.

BTW, I have never faced that behaviour on my device. I do only read complaints about.

But maybe you have an idea, why my son can't encrypt his tissot (my tissot is encrypted long time ago). Her came from a ancient stock. Wiped his device completely (formatted), flashed the latest stock, wiped, flashed Dans TWRP and finally the official LOS, MTG and Magisk 16.6. Now when he try to encrypt, the device is shutting down, rebooting, showing the encryption dialogue, but immediately booting into system. Maybe you have an idea? Many thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kopitalk:
Try this installation steps, which is more detailed.

https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/tissot/install

Edit: In case you don't know:

1. Use CosmicDan twrp

2. In twrp, if you're in slot A, flashing a rom will make the rom installed in slot B and vice versa. However, flashing gapps/kernels/magisk/mods will install in the same slot as your current slot.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] aphocus:
Here's a list of things that don't work for me:

TWRP 3.2.2 will not boot if the LineageOS recovery is installed.

TWRP 3.2.1-0 will boot, but I get "Error: 7 ErrorCode::kInstallDeviceOpenError)" when trying to install LineageOS.

Installing TWRP 3.2.1-2 with the "recoveryInstaller" Zip works, I can't find 3.2.2 as a recovery installer.

Booting 3.2.2-0 with fastboot when 3.2.1-2 is installed, does not see internal storage, "Could not mount /data unable to find crypto footer."

Theory: my /data partition is "old" and not compatible with the latest LineageOS?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lupin The Third:
Actually I have never encrypted my phone (voluntarily)

However, now that you are asking I went into settings/security&privacy/encryption&credentials and the phone looks Encrypted.

So it looks like a default thing in los?

How are you trying to encrypt?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] ydd0ras:

[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] archy112:
Please use cosmicdan's custom TWRP. You can not use the official TWRP .img or installer for the current release of lineage. I don't know if it is a problem from twrp's side or lineage's side. Just try cosmicdan's twrp and follow my instructions i quoted a few pages back from the telegram group. ;)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lupin The Third:

In this case, i would suggest he reflashes stock rom and reinstall lineage os without formating userdata.

But this is nonsense. There was no hurry to get it official.

First, we had to figure out which twrp to use cause official one wasn't working. Then, su addon doesn't work. They fixed it. Nobody has rebuilt the addons, they still don't work.

I've been using the unofficial without a complain for months but once you go official it's because it works. I'm not talking about perfection, just talking about it updates.

Have not tested the su addon, because I use Magisk. If you use CosmicDan's TWRP, you don't need to care about the slots. Flash the ROM dirty, reboot to TWRP again, flash the Mind the Gapps if needed and finally Magisk. Important is to reboot into recovery after flashing the ROM.

When i type 'Fastboot devices' everything is fine, it recognizes the phone.

There are issues with the update. Most of our devices as Charles [MENTION=7211583]Charles IV[/MENTION] said are encrypted and official lineageOs recovery cannot install updates. With the mind the gapps my device was unauthorized, so I did a clean flash. But as matter of fact, Daniel's recovery survived. The thing is lineage is still a child. Lineage team needs to support Daniel's recovery. Because it can service everything. And the issues with gapps still remains the same, until OP provide a custom gapps package. Because mind the gapps had issues for me. I don't know about others. As another user said After I downloaded the update nothing happened. My phone gave "install error". But logcat was not going to be useful, because didn't state that he supports twrp recovery. They are using LineageOS recovery in their tests. So let's hold the horses. I hope someone's device which is encrypted may able to install update properly. [MENTION=7211583]Charles IV[/MENTION] and yes Talking about this , my device is also encrypted and i was stuck at install error. Lineage team needs to use Daniel's recovery for sure.

Make no mistake, guys, ROM is smooth and stable. I clean installed last build before and it's running with no problem whatsoever.

There are small bugs like in any other ROM (included stock) but nothing serious.

It's just that the OTA, what took ages to get it official, simply doesn't work.

Su-addon doesn't work either, they fixed it but none has rebuilt the addons so they don't work.

I do not worry about having OTA in the custom rom, so I installed LOS as any custom rom (recovery, rom, recovery, OpenGapps, Magisk), however I had problems with "Ok Google". To fix it, just flashed the July modem / baseband and ... MAGIC! "ok google" work!

2nd official build is indeed a problem.

I hardly faced any problem in the first official LOS build except the Bluetooth crash..

I tried to install the first update through update option but it didn't worked.so I decided to manually do it thru Twrp.I installed perfectly but even I rebooted,the Google app stopped working and hence I wasn't able to use maps,assistant,gboard etc....I decided to wipe the dalvik cache and hence tried to go into recovery but twrp was gone instead replaced by LOS recovery.

So I fastbooted again thru adb.installed twrp.cleared dalvik cache.also decided to permanently install twrp this time...after completing the process and rebooting and I rolled back to the 1st official build.....

A tried a few more times to install the latest build but failed again.

What to do now:(
