[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] :
Security issue

Hello,

Sorry if my question is weird.

Basically, I'm very careful in term of phone security.

On lineageos, I use pattern to unlock my phone.

Basically, I'm always shoked to see that you can try as many combinaisons as you want.

On another hand, on many stock rom, after few wrong trials there is always a factory reset.

On lineageos, it is possible to have the same level of protection?

Thank you,

Damien
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] banana_bender:
If you were serious about protection you would be using a PIN. It is not possible to have that functionality with the pattern unlock on this ROM without some sort of external mod.

Security issue

Thank you for your reply.

Your are right, pin code is much better!
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] PomstaZLesa:
if you are REALLY serious about security, you have the wrong device. get a new pixel, install graphene os and keep the bootloader locked! but that offtopic for this thread.

with recent release of Lineage recovery, do you recommend to use it over twrp? so far only tried oneplus3 version, which was a hit or miss, depending on version and operations. anybody tried the Lineage recovery for oneplus5t/dumpling?

Hi, I'm looking to embrace the open source life and looking into microG, and my current ROM isn't really suitable so looking for a new one. Just a couple of questions: 1 - is this ROM deodexed? 2 - does it allow signature spoofing? Thanks!
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] bud7dha:
LineageOS does not support signature spoofing. However, there is a LineageOS fork, LineageOS for microG, that has what you're looking for. You won't find a dev supported thread on xda for the 5T, but it is maintained and supported on the LineageOS for microG website.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] D-J97:
Brilliant dude thanks! I wish more people on forums we're like you, I'll have a little Google see if I can find it
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] SuperJohnson:
Hi @D-97

Here it is : https://download.lineage.microg.org/dumpling/

I'll try it too in a week or two. I have to update my OnePlus to Pie, and never succeeded to make MicroG work on a "normal" LineageOS ROM. Hope this solution will work, so I'll finally be able to be free from Google. ;)
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] SuperJohnson:
Hi. I just installed this ROM... Before even digging, I have a huge issue :

- I can't decrypt the system partition with TWRP. If I put a pin or schema on the phone, TWRP asks it, I type the good one, and ot says it's a wrong pin/schema. I use the latest official TWRP, twrp-3.3.1-0-dumpling.img

Any help would be welcome, thanks!

Edit : the last unofficial TWRP worked, while the official doesn't. I had to use twrp-3.3.1-1-20190713-codeworkx-dumpling.img
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] 3lMghraby:
make sure you are on latest firmware 9.0.8

and at least a build after 12 august

now remove your password

install twrp by bluespark red black link here https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117884170

you will be able to decrypt with recovery now
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] SuperJohnson:

Hi I'm having issues booting with the latest Lineageos 16 on my 5T. I have the latest TWRP, installed the latest firmware 9.0.8, flashed Lineageos and it attempts to start up then goes back to recovery.

I do have magisk, but even after fully removing it, it still failed to boot, so I don't think it's related.

I also tried a clean install by doing a factory reset first and still failed to start.

Currently running an earlier lineageos from April.

When I used to have 15.1 never had this issue.

Has anyone had a similar issue or know what it could be?

Overall agave tried at least 5 times in the past couple of months to update without success.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] SuperJohnson:
Haha, not this time bro! :p
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] neobuddy89:
Before installing updated version, make sure you have latest firmware (9.0.8) flashed prior.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] birleytweet:
Hi I was flashing the firmware just before flashing the rom. It all goes through fine, but just won't start up. Unless I need to reboot after flashing the firmware then flash the rom. Is that what you mean?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] neobuddy89:
Ok wait, you need to try things step wise.

I assume you have latest 9.0.8 firmware flashed at least once.

Trial 1:

On your existing ROM, remove any sort of PIN / password from security settings.

Reboot to recovery and flash ROM + gapps. Do not install magisk right away. Reboot and see if all goes well.

If it boots well, you can add back PIN / password and then flash magisk. (Be aware that magisk has some conflicts with livedisplay and you might get stick at 'phone is starting' screen.)

Trial 2:

Go for clean flash. In recovery wipe system, data, cache in Advanced Wipe.

Then flash ROM + gapps and reboot.

Trial 3:

Go for full wipe. In recovery wipe system, data, cache in Advanced Wip. Also use "Format Data" option under wipe. This will erase internal memory.

Reboot to recovery again and flash ROM + gapps.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] aXiMus:
UPDATE - RESOLVED.

After another full wipe was able to get 0916 to boot without any gapps.

Must have been related to the TWRP.

Hello Everyone,

I too am having issues successfully flashing any of the nightly builds as of Sep 7.

I am definitely running the latest 9.0.8 firmware as I came from OOS just last week.

Nightly 0906 works and installs fine.

Any attempts to update or fresh install anything newer fails.

I have installed the codeworx version of TWRP 3.3.1-0. Full wipe including data and media partitions, downloaded via link in first post of this thread.

After flashing the device reboots to the 1+ logo then reboots and enters recovery.

Anyone else having issue with their OP5T and the more recently nightlies?

Cheers

Before you tried to flash the latest lineage OS what we you running?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] trancinguy:
What you're describing is No OS installed, make sure you're on the latest codeworkx recovery, download the following from the first page and put on OTG: 9.0.8 firmware, ROM and optional GAPPS preferably Pico size, then install firmware first, then Rom, then optional GAPPS. if SU is needed, boot once into Rom then reboot back to Recovery then install Su.

You're right about pixel bootloaders and One plus one, but there is also a way for the 5 and 5t to have lineage locked, also unsure if off topic.

I have a lot of issues with the ambient light sensor. It's just not very good, or the way the software responds is poor.

I found this post which mentions such problems. https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5t/help/light-sensor-issue-t3715569

The most annoying issue is when I have my phone out in a completely dark room with the brightness set at the very far left or minimum. If I then open something which makes the screen white, the light reflection off my face or shirt will trigger the sensor, causing the brighness level to raise substantially, hurting my eyes.

Does anyone have any suggestions on adjusting the sensitivity of the ambient light sensor or adjusting the way Android responds to it? I don't know if there are any tunable parameters for this anywhere.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] sleepwalking0593:
Disable auto brightness. Yes, in pitch black it doesn't go to minimum. You can use live display if you are using phone in night it turns screen little yellow and reduces strain.

How is the camera working VS OOS? Is it better? I am so eager to try lineageos but the camera is soemthing important for em.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] sleepwalking0593:
Camera on OOS would always be better. You can try gcam with dotfix. Or install oos cam and try it out. It would be a great help if you can test and post some results. If a developer test and post results it would be nice. Images from snap camera on los are decent too not bad at all.

Hello,

I'm using lineageos+micro g and having some issues about GPS usage.

With some applications like waze, GPS works fine but with some others it doesn't work at all (like trip advisor or UBER). Of course, I've checked that localization is authorized for those applications.

Do you have any clue ?

Thanks,

Firmware upgrade to 9.0.8

With LineageOS 16.0 installed, does a firmware upgrade from 9.0.7 to 9.0.8 leave the user data and operating system in place? I see a lot of posts of people resetting or flashing complete device for only a firmware upgrade, but that seems excessive.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] tye_time:
Yes. Flashing the firmware updates the modems, nothing to do with user data.

I am stuck with NO usaeable phone...

I have latest firmware 9.0.8

codeworkx recovery (twrp-3.3.1-1-20190713-codeworkx-dumpling.img]

Trying to upgrade from a older version on LineageOS16 to the current nightly...

Step1: Flash firmware

Step2: Flash LOS nightly

Step3: Flash OPengapps nano (latest)

Step4: wipe cache & dalvik

Step5=> reboot to system

Step 5 fails... and it boots back again and then goes into recovery...

Question 1: What is the way out ?

Question 2: If I have to do a full wipe I need to backup on TWRP and I am not used to it, what should I be backing up, there are a number of partitions shows to backup ?

Question 3: Where to find archival builds of LineageOS dumpling... like the ones in September which do not have this problem
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] droidsometimes:
OpenGapps builds are currently broken.

Try Oct 6 or older build, or wait until the builds are fixed.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ghatothkach:
Tried flashing without openGapps, still same problem...

Amongst other things I have encryption turned ON (but I can decrypt using the screen password in TWRP)

I was looking for older build of lineage 16.0 which does not have this problem...

The MAIN reason I want for the update is Google-{ay stopped working => Magisk was not able to upgrade...

I seem to be having Magisk 19.4 as it seems to be doing its job after the lineageOS image is flashed

[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] droidsometimes:
Well, I just tried and updated my OP 5T to 20191012-nightly without problems. It also has OpenGapps+Magisk installed.

If you flashed a broken OpenGapps build, you'll either have to

- restore a previously made nandroid backup

or

- downgrade OpenGapps to a Oct 6 or older

or

- wipe /system (and possibly other partitions) and fresh install

to get rid of it?

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, Magisk 19.4, isn't/wasn't that beta?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ghatothkach:
I updated my post earlier, I found my older build image and got my phone working... Don't really know what the problem is with the latest builds.

Will look at it again soon...
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vipsms:
I was experiencing this issue exactly since 4 days ago. I was doing full clean flash including formatting data, but still same result as yours.

Solutions I tried :-

- Tried different TWRP recoveries img

- Tried older lineage and gapps zips (October released) but still same result

- Lastly, I tried flashing lineage without gapps at all, and it boots up fine ??

So, the issue is related to open gapps 100% (I tried Pico & Nano).

To overcome this issue, flash older gapps (released in September), you can find them in sourceforge mirror

Latest lineage zip is fine

Note: If still doesn't work for you, try Mindthegapps instead of opengapps, but I haven't tried it myself.

In the last month I've been having a problem with bluetooth. I don't think I had this problem before the newest firmware, which is 9.0.8.

I have a Samsung HM1300 BT headset which will give garbled output most of the time, like it's slicing or compressing the audio and I just get a series of blips.

I also have a problem with an Anker Soundcore B speaker where if I let the speaker associate with the phone by pressing a button on it, the WiFi will go out constantly because BT is interfering with it! But if I let the phone connect to the speaker, it's fine.

Anyone else having similar issues? I'm on the 20190908 nightly. I guess I should upgrade but I'm not aware of any fixes for this and I don't have any other problems with the build.

Computer unable to read my phone for file transfer when it is on. However, reading it when on recovery mode seems to work no problem at all. Does not wiping system partition apart from formatting the data have something to do with this?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] howdorky:
I'm pretty sure I have the right USB drivers, I am also not a noob to not know how to set the USB configuration from just charging to File Transfer via USB. It's just that booted up into the system, my PC can't read my device, but reads it perfectly as a PTP device. Also as I mentioned, it can be read when it is on recovery mode.

Hi

I ask your help :

I came from lineageos 15.1

With my recovery (twrp-3.2.3-0) I flashed firmware (firmware_9.0.9_oneplus5t.zip)

With fastboot I flashed twrp-3.3.1-0.img

Now I couldn't flash lineageos 16

Updater process ended with ERROR : 7

and

Failed to mount '/vendor' (Invalid argument)

When I look on /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name vendor folder doesn't exist.

How have I to do ?

Are you on the latest twrp from codeworkx, if not try that.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vipsms:
Do you have vendor partition ? If not, you should have it in the first place since lineage 16 has treble support.

In the first post it says:

"Upgrade to latest available official firmware"

What does that mean?

When installing the firmware is this done when the phone is running OSS or LOS?

Is this the latest Oxygen OS or is this some other software?

Is firmware just another word for OS?

Thanks
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] droidsometimes:
Firmware usually refers to something between OS and hardware.

In this case, it means either the latest (for LOS 16 it still has to be Pie I guess, so 9.0.x) OxygenOS, or a firmware package, installable via TWRP, if you're already on a 3rd party OS - see the firmware download link in the first post.

Thanks,

From reading this thread upgrading the oneplus 5T to LOS is not an easy task, it's ripe with problems.

Anyway, I have OSS 5.1.4 and android 8.1.0 brand new, what would be my next step to upgrade to LOS 16?

Thanks
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vipsms:
Since you are on 5.1.4 oxygen os, you can follow the OP instructions. They are clear and you shouldn't experience any issues there.

[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] troypulk:
Thanks,

how do I disable the decryption?

When installing what you suggested, is that in the OOS 4.1.5 first?

After everything is done will OTA work for LOS 16?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] PomstaZLesa:
if you are still on oxygenos, update to latest version. then unlock bootloader, flash latest twrp from codeworkx twrp-3.3.1-20190908-0-codeworkx-signed-forcedecrypt-dumpling.img and then install lineageos with twrp. if you lose encryption at any point, you can encrypt lineageos with this recovery and it will work fine

I have OP5T with the latest official LineageOS 15.1 version.

How can I upgrade to official Lineage 16.0 without losing my data/apps/settings?

I don't want to root my device, and I don't (and won't) use any Google or cloud services on my phone.

Can I use TWRP for backing up?

Which partitions should I backup to keep contacts, apps and files?

Will I be able to restore it after upgrading to LOS 16?

Do I need to move the backup file to my PC and restore using ADB after flashing LOS16?

Is it even necessary, or should I simply flash the ROM and nothing will be missing?

Would really appreciate some guidance here :)
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] howdorky:
You can use TWRP to backup the current system and data, but considering that you will be upgrading your android version, I'm not sure that you can restore your data when you've successfully upgraded.

Clean flash is always recommended as you may run into a series of problems if you dirty flash, also, you need a new firmware if you're upgrading.

My suggestion is you just move all your important files from your phone to pc, flash latest codeworkx TWRP and Format Data + System and Cache wipe. This will wipe all your phone data and remove encryption.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] MajorBoobage:
So what you are saying is that there is no way to keep my stuff...Hmm...

In that case it makes no sense for me to upgrade at all.

I have no problem to do a clean install, but I need a way to keep my contacts at the very least, preferably files and apps too.

If anyone knows of a way to do it, or knows for a fact it is not possible, please let me know!

Thanks!
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] howdorky:
There is a way, but that includes rooting your phone which you previously mentioned as an option that you're not open to.

I always use Titanium Backup everytime I'm switching from rom to rom, and it requires you root your device.

You also mentioned that you don't use Google Apps, from which Backups can be helpful to you.

If you really don't want them, your options are really limited
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] MajorBoobage:
Understood.

I will consider the possibility of rooting and using Titanium or Migrate, but for now I guess I will follow the engineering prime directive:

If it ain't broke don't fix it, since it's my daily driver.

After some digging in the thread I found this post, [MENTION=4604606]giddie[/MENTION]

Do you think the fact your device was rooted is relevant to your TWRP back up?

Do you think I can do a similar upgrade without rooting?

Also, was the notification slider thing fixed eventually?

Thank you!
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] giddie:
I don't think TWRP cares if the device is rooted or not.

Yes, you can upgrade without rooting. In fact LineageOS officially is intended to be used unrooted. Of course many people root LineageOS, but it's not the default situation.

Yes, they eventually added back the ability to change notification volume separately from ringer volume :)

Good luck!
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] HRavat:
To backup just back up Boot System Data and Cache

Edit: you can back up with TWRP

1. Flash latest TWRP by codeworkx

2. Download latest lineage and microG (if that's what you want)

3. Transfer to device

4. Flash in both in TWRP then boot into Android

Enjoy
