hello.

I have got a new xperia xa2 phone and want to install lineage os 17.1 on it. I am new to this and am afraid of doing something wrong. After reading this thread there seem to be some things with only one chance at doing them right. So please forgive me if I am too cautious.

The phone comes with android version 8.0.0, baseband version 20180829_BY120_Daily and build number 50.1.A.13.83.

I understood that the firmware should somehow be brought to version 50.2 and the baseband to something from 2019.

Is there any downside to let the device upgrade itself to android 9 first? Or is it just unnecessary? Would it upgrade my firmware and baseband as well or do I have to do it manually anyway?

Is there a way to backup the whole system before trying to install lineage os? So that I could restore all partitions if anything goes wrong? Is there anything I cannot backup and should I worry about that? (I think DRM keys were mentioned somewhere in this thread. Stuff like that.)

Is booting into twrp already changing the system? I read that twrp has a backup function. Can it access everything on the device?
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
OTA until there are no more OTAs before unlocking BL and you should be fine.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] esemef:
How do you boot into twrp once it's installed?

I thought there would be a key to do it, but cant make it work
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
Have a look at:

https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/pioneer

topic: Special boot modes

samhhmobil

PS

For myself (and just only for myself) I did decide, not to flash TWRP permanently into the phone. I can live with LOS recovery as it is included in LOS17.1, and if I really need TWRP, I'll boot it via fastboot from PC.

[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] marsssss:
does anyone use android auto on Lineageos 17.1 and work well for him?
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] inahardware:
I had flashed, but in my case twrp is not able to restore backup. I am looking for another way to backup. Maybe adb...

My xa2 worked fine after installing twrp, but after a few weeks my xa2 got corrupted. I don't know the reason.

PSA: Official downloads are back again.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
I see WiFi calling as an option now after the latest build. No indication whether it actually works though.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Arbaazhussain:
Can you bring more clock and fonts for this rom?

Can you also bring customisable grid options ? (Like on third party launchers)

Can all the customisable option put under one for easy access of these options?

And mainly wanted to know how to install twrp without causing any problems for this type of device.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
Due to the fact, that the switch(!) for VoLTE is there, but it has NO FUNCTION yet — even if it is switched on or off —, even VoWiFi will have no function too, IMHO.

samhhmobil
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
I never saw a switch for volte earlier. Still can't.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
Go to: Settings ==> Network&Internet ==> Mobile network, and there it is, 5th topic from the top.

samhhmobil
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
That's not volte. It's just what network type your phone should use for data - 2G, 3G or LTE.

VoLTE and LTE data are 2 different things.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
Of course it is the fifth! (But it has no working function.)

Network type is the 6th topic!
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
Ah. I do not have that option for some reason. My network does support VoLTE as it works when I use the sim in another phone.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:

[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
I have 50.2
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
So I don't know, why you can't see the (useless) VoLTE switch. ... or better to say: why can I see it, even if it's useless...
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] kapibada:
Does anyone here have any idea if the Gapps+Magisk problems are resolved now? (i.e. no need to boot into recovery to avoid bootloop)
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] zupert:
Since the new OTA upgrades 2 days ago, the unlocking of the second SIM card never succeeds.

I am limited to booting with only one SIM.

Is it a known issue?
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
No idea yet.

Since end of February my H4113 and my H3113 did reboot flawlessly (LOS17.1, Gapps-nano, Magisk 20.3).

But mid of May I got a random (warm) reboot on my H4113, and since this event it does not reboot anymore, and I can only reboot into TWRP (via fastboot), clearing Dalvik, and from there, it reboots normally again. But reboot from inside the system is impossible now.

My second device, H3113, same configuration, reboots flawlessly up to now without any trouble, and I don't see a difference between both systems configuration.

It's quite strange.

samhhmobil
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
Try updating to at least 0601.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] phuzz11:
I had to go into recovery after an OTA the other day, but personally I don't find that too much of a problem. Just selecting "boot to system" in the Lineage recovery skips bootloops for me.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
Still there
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Daxey:
No Signal problem

Hi,

I have a problem after flashing 50.2.A.3.55_R5B and LinegeOS 17.1

I have "no signal".

Reseting APN doesn't work.

Can you help me ?

Damien
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
Yes, that's an easy workaround. But ideally we should be able to to reboot without going to recovery.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] phuzz11:
True.

I'm wondering if it has something to do with it booting off the wrong slot perhaps?
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
What build? If not latest then update to latest.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Daxey:
it's a recent build : 20200530
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] zupert:
I upgraded this morning to 17.1-20200603 and it still only loads one SIM.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
Then I have no idea, I just recompiled my dsds voyager and it works just fine there. Both SIMs are recognized etc.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Daxey:
I have the same problem with others builds.

If I flash H3113_Customized FR_1312-1449_50.2.A.3.55_R5B it's OK but with LineageOS, it doesn't work.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
Does Lineage even recognize your phone as dual SIM?
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Daxey:
I think no, I have nothing about a 2nd SIM.

My SIM card is recognized by the phone.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
Uh, that's interesting. Does it show two IMEIs in settings? If not, can you message me on irc / discord / hangouts (see my sig for handles)
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Daxey:
I have my IMEI, and IMEI SV 00

Discord, ok ;) , thanks.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
That works on my H4113 too, of course.

Nevertheless it's the question, why did boot and reboot worked flawlessly from the beginning of official LOS 17.1 at end of February until the mid of May (LOS build 20200430), and after a random reboot (which did boot) the normal boot/reboot does not work anymore, just only via recovery.

BTW, when trying to switch between the slots (a/b) in TWRP I got a red error message (I have to reproduce that), but the switching was done. Maybe there is a bug in switching the slots?

samhhmobil
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] esemef:
How do you get into lineage recovery?

Is there a key press or do you need to use fastboot or adb?
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] phuzz11:
Turn your phone off. Then start it up holding down the power button, and Volume Down. Release the buttons when you reach the "You bootloader is unlocked" screen.

(I found if I held them for too long then it would get stuck on the SONY screen)

Selecting the 'Reboot' option solved the boot-loop for me.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] esemef:
Thanks, I don't think I was holding it long enough. You have to wait for the led flash and the vibration.

If the phone is bootlooping then power + volume up shuts it down and you can then power + volume down to get to recovery., at least I've managed that once...
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] theredbaron1834:
Exactly what I was going to say. When I first got this phone, I bootlooped and "had" to wait for the battery to die. Was crap. Never saw anything about vol up and power as a hard reboot. Glad I found it.

And yeah, works every time, still use it every so often, as I have to boot through recovery or bootloops, and I forget sometimes :)
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gabi10017:
Hi! Can someone tell me how to turn on the ambient display/always on feature? I can see it in the quick settings menu but I can't turn it on.

(If it's not available, dev can you include it in a future build please?)
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
It makes no sense to include it on IPS devices.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gabi10017:
Well, I know it's battery consuming but I just want to see the clock and notification without having to press anything..

Also, if you can include the weather on lockscreen feature, that would be nice :)
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
I'll pass.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Gabi10017:
Hmm, why?

[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] zupert:
Thank you LuK1337, it worked flawlessly!

Now both SIMs are recognized and active.

Well done :good:

SafetyNet

Hello, I'm currently sitting on version from April 10th. It was the most stable at the time and I didn't bother to install new ones 'cause they were buggy. Welp the usual bootloops with Magisk and all this beauty but I could live with that. Problem was that safetyNet was passing the whole time so I even could use stuff like GooglePay. Well it kinda stopped working since last week. Does basic LOS 17.1 build passes safetyNet? If it does then I should be able to use those normally, right? No need to install magisk and then hide it (?)
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
All builds upto the latest build (0605), Gapps nano and Magisk: Safetynet works and it's green. On H4113 and H3113. It works flawlessly.

You must have another issue with some 3rd party software.

samhhmobil
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ilyabauer:
No, no don't get me wrong here. I still pass safetyNet. My question is will I still pass it with empty (gapps + rom) LOS install
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Untot:
yes
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] hoxirm:
Do you guys can select network? looks like I can connect only to T-Mobile. (I'm on roaming at the moment) When I try to connect to anything else I see only Couldn't Connect. Looks like Choose network option is grayout and T-Mobile is there by default.

Then that's weird.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ilyabauer:
Ah yes baby google pay loves me.

Installed june 5th version. No magisk (no bootloops) + gapps (opengapps nano). No errors during install. SafetyNet passed. Google pay doesn't say jack but doesnt work. NFC enabled. Nothing happens during phone -> terminal contact. (on april 10th version + magisk + opengapps it worked for like yhm a month? then started throwing errors during payment like "terminal is not supported" and "there was an error"). Any clue? This feature would really help me out rn. Don't like putting in pins everywhere
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
Ping me on IRC/Discord/Hangouts if you want to test something for me. I can't guarantee that it'll fully fix it but I'd hope that it'll at least return it to april builds state.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
No builds since a few days. Is there an issue again?
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
Builds are weekly again...
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
Thanks. Didn't realise.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
So I installed the build for the 11th. Have magisk installed due to which I have to manually boot the phone from the recovery as otherwise the phone does not finish booting.

Guess what? This time I didn't have to go to recovery to finish booting the phone. It completed the update and reboot as expected!
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] x751sa:
there will be a version of lineageos for android 11? thanks
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jimmygumble:
First rule of Getting-Things-For-Free Club is don't ask for for more free stuff. ;)

To answer your question, yes there will be a Lineage for Android 11. The unknown is if our nice maintainers will port it to the XA2. Past form says "probably yes" but people will always stop eventually. Even then hopefully another kind soul might dedicate their free time to build the sources for this device and share them with us all too.

is build on weekly rather than nightly now..?

Short Story:

From lineage-17.1-20200530-nightly-pioneer to lineage-17.1-20200603-nightly-pioneer, my XA2 was able to register IMS, so VoLTE and WiFi Calling were working.

I didn't install lineage-17.1-20200605-nightly-pioneer.

With lineage-17.1-20200611-nightly-pioneer, IMS registration doesn't work anymore, so no VoLTE or WiFi Calling.

Long Story:

My phone:

Sony Xperia XA2 H4113 (dual sim but slot 2 is used for a sd card).

MNO: Aldi Talk (Medion Mobile) in network of Telefonica Germany (o2).

Baseband: 20191108-BY12O_Daily

Around Eastern, I flashed stock ROM "H4113_Customized DACHBLX_1313-6485_50.2.A.3.22_R5B" with newflasher on both slots. After this, I flashed LineageOS 17.1. No GApps, no root, no magisk. I'm using F-Droid (and Aurora Store) but without priviledged extensions.

No IMS registration.

Then (after a few immediate OTA updates) I updated to lineage-17.1-20200530-nightly-pioneer and IMS registration worked. Until (including) lineage-17.1-20200603-nightly-pioneer, IMS registration kept working.

I didn't install/test lineage-17.1-20200605-nightly-pioneer.

After OTA updating to lineage-17.1-20200611-nightly-pioneer, IMS registration does not work anymore.

In my family, there are two other XA2 H4113 phones (a few hundred kilometers away, so I currently don't have access to them). There, no "H4113_Customized DACHBLX_1313-6485_50.2.A.3.22_R5B" was installed. Instead they were on Baseband 20180306_BY120_Daily and I flashed the magic zip via LineageOS recovery before upgrading from LineageOS 16.0 to 17.1 (via LineageOS recovery from installed LineageOS 16.0 without factory reset).

They both have got a different firmware region: R6A

They both have got open_gapps-arm64-10.0-nano installed. Both no root, no magisk.

For these 2 phones, IMS registration never worked.

I guess that I still have got lineage-17.1-20200603-nightly-pioneer on my other slot.

Can I provide any further information that allows LineageOS to successfully register IMS on my (and all other XA2) devices?

Edit: IMS registration worked only, when I selected "GSM/WCDMA/LTE (PRL)" as "Set Preffered Network Type" - with "LTE/WCDMA" or "LTE only", IMS registration didn't work.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
JFYI...

With the build from 06/11 WiFi-calling works!!!

Thanks a lot

samhhmobil
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Andy_2639:
That's weired ... my phone just stopped IMS registration with 20200611 but yours just started to do it?

(Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for you ? I would just like to see all phones to reliably be able to get VoLTE and WiFi calling working.)

My current situation with 20200611:
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
>I would just like to see all phones to reliably be able to get VoLTE and WiFi calling working

Well, you were getting IMS on lineage nile devices by a mere luck.

We don't really have proper modem config setup up so it only works if your modem is somehow programmed with proper config and as to why your modem was programmed with IMS compatible config I have no idea but I guess that's no more lol.

On a sidenote, ganges (aka kirin, mermaid) devices have proper modem config setup on Lineage so IMS should be less of a gamble on these devices.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
That's interesting, I did figure out a bit more...

For me, even the IMS Status is "not registered" and all other is "not available".

But: when connected to WiFi, incoming calls are announced as "incoming WiFi-call", and it's reproducable.

So the one OR the other is wrong information.

samhhmobil
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] LuK1337:
Weird but ok.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] samhhmobil:
So...

It's really strange.

All the time is "IMS Status: not registered". But...

State: LTE connected, WiFi connected, incoming call is announced as "incoming Wi-Fi call". When Phone connection is established, it's ongoing to see, that the phone remains in LTE and WiFi. The Wireshark-Log shows connections from Telefonica-Germany-Servers on my AVM-FritzBox-Router. Telefonica is my mobile phone provider.

So this is a REAL incoming Voice-over-WiFi-connection.

Nevertheless, don't forget "IMS Status: not registered". Strange!

When disabling WiFi on the XA2, incoming calls are normal, and LTE switches immediatly to 3G.

Outgoing calls all the time are "normal" calls and LTE switches to 3G, as usual.

So it's really strange, Voice-over-WiFi works for incoming calls, but for incoming calls only. VoLTE does NOT work in any way (yet?).

Firmware-version is 50.2.A.3.22, LOS-build 06/11, nano-gapps, magisk 20.3.

Last week I did something unnecessary and flashed H3113_Customized DE_1312-2606_50.2.A.3.55_R1B (baseband version 20200130_BY120_Daily) . Now my phone does no longer connect to the mobile network. The status page relating to the sim card in the "About your phone" section of the settings app shows "Servicestatus: Funkschnittstelle deaktiviet" which translates to something like "radio interface deactivated".

Going back to the previously installed H3113_Customized DE_1312-2606_50.2.A.0.400_R1B (baseband version 20190718_BY120_Daily) and applying the OTA update from June 11th did not bring back mobile network.

Is there any hope for bringing mobile network back to life or did I brick my phone?
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Arbaazhussain:
Will anyone help in flashing gsi to this device I have many gsi but none of them work if system and data is cleared.

I could flash some gsi after flashing this lineage 17.1 or crdroid 6.3 zip roms but I got many problems.

I thought of flashing Android 11 beta but it doesn't work at all.

I even tried erfan gsi Android 11 but in twrp it shows system image is larger than system (something like that) in fastboot it doesn't flash it shows failed after the third sparse.

What should I do ?

anyone can message me. Any answers are open.

If the maintainers are going to bring Android 11 soon I will stop trying and wait for the build.

I am also requesting maintainers (please) to bring it soon.

I hope the maintainers have read it and bring Android 11 soon.

Thank you for listening to me.

Hi guys, I've installed few days ago LOS 17.1 (20200605) and yesterday updated by OTA to 20200611 and can't boot now - failed to bind mount /mnt/staging/emulated/media/0

Does anyone know why I got this and how to fix it?

Thx.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Dan Smith:
I ran into the same kind problem after updating my H3113 firmware to .55 as well. I didn't manage to get it very clear whether it was coming from the firmware update (as downgrading the firmware using newflasher didn't seem to fix the problem either) or from the latest LineageOS release, so I ended up wiping all system/data, downgrading firmware to last working version, and reinstalling release 20200611.

I got mobile network working after this, though not on the very first boot if I remember well, but it seems to be OK now.

However, after a lengthy session of restoring backups and settings, I still cannot get heads-up notifications, which is troublesome, especially when I'm being called. I suppose I'll give it another try with this week's release.

Also, this time around, I didn't manage to install LineageOS from TWRP (3.3.1-6-pioneer). But LineageOS recovery is really looking good now, so I guess this is not much of a problem anymore (even though it doesn't - to my knowledge - enable swapping manually A/B slots).
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rantanplan42:
Dan Smith, thank you for sharing your experience. Knowing this, I will give wiping and reinstalling a try at the weekend.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] user1012:
Same here. I had to reflash it again.

But it's starting to annoy me this whole 'situation' about Xperias and LOS.
[Sony Xperia XA2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Meloferz:
I never had those issues, updating through OTA every month and never ended in bootloop. I don't use Magisk, and any modification, stock LOS with gapps only
