I'm running 17.1 with gapps and magisk. It runs good, like stock, and file transfer doesn't work yet. Some settings are hard to find in System, they're in a different place than I'm used to.

Flashing gapps and magisk in the recovery that got flashed with 17.1 didn't work. I went back and tried sideloading twrp, and it wouldn't reboot to recovery, just to bootloader, so I tried flashing 16.0 recovery. That worked, then I flashed (sideload) gapps and magisk in recovery, rebooted, and I had gapps and magisk.

In both recoveries, when sideloading it would go to 47%, get stuck, and there'd be a message that signature couldn't be verified, do I want to continue, and I hit Yes. This was the case for both the failed and successful flashing of gapps and magisk.

I'm not sure if I got lucky, or if the 16.0 recovery would work for everyone.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
I had to try 2 times from slot a with twrp on slot b with los (changing to slot b from twrp options) to install gapps, with magisk don't have same luck xd
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] njsges:
In step 5 we reboot into bootloader, but in step 6 it says switch slot. How do I do this in bootloader?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
With a fastboot command something like active-slot=a or b xd srry you must search. It's in almost every post of trwp or roms
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] DAE1964:
This is a must read.

https://mata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
To switch to slot a: fastboot set_active a

To switch to slot b: fastboot set_active b

Remember that once booted in TWRP, you will need to immediately switch slot again to make sure you are flashing over the slot where LOS was installed. You can use TWRP to switch, under the Reboot section at the bottom.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] GrapeBandit:
im doing research on how to install lineage 17.1 and the main LOS page doesnt mention anything thats mentioned here; flash to january 2020 stock OS, the 2 slots, GAPPS, and magisk. this is getting me confused!

https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/mata/install
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] foueddyf:
It's because they use a template to auto generate the install procedures for each devices.

When you support hundreds of devices, gotta start getting more efficient with your time ;)
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] GrapeBandit:
thanks for clearing that up. with that said, is there a preferred method, or is one better than the other? if they both accomplish the same thing, why 2 methods?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] No-New-Phone:
Sorry if I have lost it somewhere. But is this the procedure to upgrade from Los 16 to 17.1, or from 17.1 unofficial to 17.1 official?

I was so happy having installed this unofficial los 17.1, but I'd love the updater. Especially because it's my wife's phone, and it would be nice to not have to update manually (if updates are still happening here).

So should I go the [MENTION=3749556]R2D2_SW[/MENTION] way? Or simply wait some more time to get an easy-beasy-download-zip-and-flash-install?

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
With the 05/01 recovery, you can use the method on the Lineage website. The only things to know is that the format system may fail but it doesn't matter, and when sideloading the rom, it will freeze at 47% and you will get a message saying that the connection was lost (or something like that) but at the very end of that message, it will say "no error". And that means just that, i.e. the flash was successful. You can reboot to recovery and sideload gapps and Magisk with the 5/1 LOS recovery and that should go without any errors at all. I've tried it and it worked for me. The issues with LOS recovery were in the prior build (before 5/1).

That being said, if you are comfortable and understand which slots you are working on, you can use TWRP as well without any issues.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] nstirton:
Thanks for this - it ensured I didn't lose my mind when my install stopped at 47%!

Install was super easy using the LOSrecovery - no messing around with slots. I did use the "getvar" line at one point to make sure I was installing to the right partition, not use if it was needed, but it certainly worked for me.

However, when installing GAPPS and Magisk I got a message: "signatures not matched: install anyway?", I selected "continue" and they apparently installed fine, but when booting up for the first time, they weren't there. Any suggestions? I used the ARM64 Mini GAPPS and up to date Magisk zip.

EDIT: I read that a few have had success with installing REcovery 16 and installing GAPPS that way. Very please to confirm it worked (even though I still got the same error message)! Didn't try Magisk yet but will go back and do that once I'm all set up again.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
Selecting "install anyway" is correct. Did you rebooted to recovery prior to flashing Gapps and Magisk? If so, the other thing is that Lineage only recommends OpenGapps up to nano. So it might be an issue with OpenGapps. I personally used NikGapps Full and removed the launcher (Lawnchair and Lawnchair Feed) from the package because it breaks Trebuchet when installed as a system app. You can install Lawnchair from the Google Play store and it will be fine. Or you can pick a NikGapps package that does not come with the launcher. Not sure why Magisk did not stick though. Perhaps try once you have Gapps installed successfully. Also, you might want to format the data/factory reset before retrying to flash Gapps. You don't have to reinstall LOS though.

I did not try using the LOS16 recovery, so I can't personally confirm whether that works. But I've heard from others that it does.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] nstirton:
Thanks, I managed to flash both gapps and Magisk with LOS recovery 16, so happy days!

Anyone else facing the same issues I recommend trying the same. I still got error messages but confirm they installed just fine.

And yes, I used Micro GAPPS to avoid launcher issues.

Best,

Neil

360 camera supported?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gavinfernandes2012:
Not on any custom ROMs afaik
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
It actually works from what I remember. I feel like I've tried it on LOS17.1. I definitely tried it on PA and EvoX. There is one caveat, i.e. that the phone will reboot if you don't have a nearly full charge. Other users have reported the same with stock rom.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] BokeB:
Jep, this is exactly how it works.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
Some place to talk about actual problems of official rom?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gavinfernandes2012:
Ohh okay thanks for the correction, I thought that was for custom kernels on the stock rom but I clearly mixed things up there, cheers

Edit: hey could you do me a favour and tell me whether the mic works fine on this rom? Do WhatsApp and other apps use the correct mic or the noise cancelling mic on the back of the phone?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
I haven't been on LOS17.1 in a about 3 weeks, but if I remember correctly, the 5/1 build does not use the correct mic. But a new build is in the queue at the moment so perhaps it has been fixed since.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] ksynwa:
Has anyone been able to install TWRP or Magisk to the latest LineageOS 17.1 (29th May) build?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
TWRP is unlikely because TWRP hasn't been updated in 2 years to keep up with changes. LOS is using something TWRP doesn't like. Others have said that the LOS recovery is working fine though.

I updated from May 1 and have Magisk just fine, BTW.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
Looks like MTP was fixed on the 5/30 build. Wondering if Bluetooth aptx, mic issues and lack of deep sleeping were resolved since the 5/1 build. Anyone had the chance to check the status of these?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
You able to OTA to 5/30 build from 5/29? Or did you flash from recovery or ADB? I'm on 5/29 and the updater keeps telling me there's no new update.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] R2D2_SW:
I haven't been on LOS in a while. Just wondering whether others who are can confirm these fixes.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] lynnux:
I'm in the middle of trying to flash 5/30 build in recovery/sideload. Don't do it, I'm running into problems. Stuck on boot animation, then it goes to recovery screen saying there's no OS installed, and either factory reset or try again.

I've now sideloaded the 5/29 build and will report back.

Edit: Had to factory reset and sideload a fresh install of 5/30 build.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
I updated via OTA and had no issues.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] BokeB:
Jep MTP works. aptx is still broken.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] moichman:
hello,

i have installed the official 5-30 LOS with stock gapps. Phone is also rooted with magisk.

the speaker phone volume at minimum level is amazingly loud. it's like it used to a couple of years ago before they corrected the issue with a monthly update. i forget the timeline and details, but that is a summary of the fix, then.

before i installed the 5-30 LOS, i was still on the feb security update and the speaker phone volume had a more reasonable minimum level.

is anyone else having this issue on a phone call and using the speaker phone?

i tried finding something with edxposed and gravity box, but i didn't see anything that helped. i've read some other posts on reddit that mentioned an app called precise volume. i couldn't see how this reduced the gain...it seemed if it did anything that it just gave more volume steps. but maybe i am not using it correctly.

what i'd really like to to is find something that reduces the gain by 10 or 20 (or whatever) decibels.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
Yes, if you notice, volume is the same no matter what you do with volume. It's always maxed. I filed an issue for it earlier in the month. Not sure when it'll be addressed.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] moichman:
thanks for replying.

yeah, that is exactly what is happening.

ok, then, i will stop trying to figure out a solution and just wait.

thanks again!
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
Volume can be put down if it's graphically up but in phonecalls (without speaker) you set it down.

Ps:why updater is not showing latest updates?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] moichman:
my updater did. i went ahead and used it to update to the LOS 6-01, but then play services stopped working. after reboot i reinstalled stock gapps and it fixed that, but i was getting a persistent notification that android services (or android update? can't remember) was wanting to finish. i'd close it and it would come back. i was wondering if that was because i forgot to restore the boot image in magisk before updating.

i forgot completely to see if the speaker phone volume issue was corrected. because of the time i spent with the gapps and then android services issues. i just went back to february stock so i could stop thinking about it, which of course, i didn't ;)

anyway, i plan on trying again, maybe after another update or few. this time i will go with a minimal gapps since i realize that i don't need the whole stock, now. i also won't root it since i don't really need it (i did it initially because i thought i might be able to correct the speaker phone issue).

a deciding factor on whether i do is if i have to reinstall gapps with each non-major update of LOS, or whether that issue was because i didn't use magisk to restore the boot image, or something else i did/didn't do wrong.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
I try to manually update, reboot on the other slot with twrp(B), then go to reboot on twrp menu, change slot to A, install los.zip 01/06, partition system fail to mount, then bootloop... Still cant make it load but get to install without partition problems... Im tired of this device..
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
Delete the previous update, then exit settings and check for updates again. Should show up. If not immediately, it should a little late in the day
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
I have to upgrade my gapps to latest version after manual install and hell's bootloops. I can't even install and use twrp now,but at least I don't have to factory reset

Ps: Is usb C audio adapter working?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] joha386:
I installed 20200604 successfully yesterday, coming from a fully stock phone, running the latest update from essential. Followed the lineage guide to the dot, using lineage recovery. Everything went totally smooth, used opengapps nano. Upgraded to 20200608 today via the official LOS updater - everything went totally smooth again.

Works like a charm.

That might be comforting to someone who's still waiting to try it out.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
Good to hear....I have couple of questions

1. Can you check if Google dialer work with this rom? (I tried with LOS 16 but failed on me)

2. Does it give you option to select VoLTE?

3. If dark mode selected, is the notification popup in dark or white? (in LOS 16, even in dark mode, the popup is always in white)

Thanks.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Beej1970:
Has the Bluetooth been helped, it's really buggy on my Essential , LOS17.1 . About 2-3 nightlies ago.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
If you're using aptx bluetooth devices, disable aptx. It seems to be broken at the moment.

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

To avoid bootloops, use pico version of gapps so you don't include the Google launcher. You shouldn't have to reflash gapps if you update via built-in OTA. Flashing the zip in recovery I think wipes system, which would also wipe gapps since it's not part of the rom.

Also, you absolutely can't use TWRP until someone updates it. LOS uses their own recovery and they also include a vendor image for our phone. Unfortunately, just like the stock Feb vendor image, it breaks TWRP. TWRP has not been updated for this phone for 2 years, so lots is broken with it as Essential has changed things.

And yes, USB audio adapter works.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
Which version fix that? I have it broken since 01/06 and don't read about any change in changelist :o
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
I'm not sure which version - I usually use Bluetooth headphones, honestly. But last Thurs/Fri I plugged in my wired headphones with the USB-C audio adapter and they worked just fine. I was probably on the June 4th build. I used the wired headphones all weekend just fine. Updating to June 8th build as I type this.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
I'm on last version and don't work at all :C
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
Audio adapter? Make sure it's getting good connection. Clean port maybe.

Only thing different is I'm using the JamesDSP Magisk module which is an audio modification. I wouldn't have thought that would affect USB audio working or not but maybe.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] rophiroth:
Try jamesdsp, no luck. Do you have any audio option in developer menu? On USB config someone says it should speak about audio output. :eek:

Thanks
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
Yeah, option reads "disable USB audio routing" and it's not toggled (grayed out, switched towards the left).

Does VoLTE work in current release? What did you see at the cell signal icon? LTE or LTE+
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
No VoLTE yet. It doesn't look like any builds of LOS 17.1 have implemented it though.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
Oh...ok, how about LTE signal? Do you have LTE+ or just LTE?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
Don't really remember, honestly. Been home on WiFi most of the time. I recall seeing a change in the changelog addressing it. I will have to pay more attention to it.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] joha386:
4G+ and option for 4G calls is there. If it's actually working? I don't know.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
Hmmm.....wonder what the meaning of their labeling.

different between VoLTE in stock vs. 4G in LOS
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
Which update version? I don't see that option.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
You won't see it until your network supports it
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
My network already does. I've had VoLTE since I owned this phone. But LOS doesn't support it for me. Whenever anyone asks about VoLTE in a LOS discussion, no one gives a straight answer either.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] malerocks:
Well, the straight answer is that LineageOS does NOT support VoLTE, even though the switch exists in the code. Why the switch shows for some and not for others, not sure.

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] chanh2018:
Thank you for your confirmation.

I talked to people in LOS reddit group, and look like it's ROM dependent. Most of them have VoLTE with LOS 17.1 and they're not using Essential phone.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] gk1984:
In the LOS download page (website), there's a tab that says "recent changes." Here, you can see a list of changes and infer what will be new or different. If you see anything related to VoLTE or IMS, then it might be addressed.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DrWowe:
If you run the program that shows raw key events, there is no event for a short press. This means it's a low-level driver issue. Probably the keyboard driver would have to be hacked or something. I don't think it's been done.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] unL33T:
Two posts up. If the keyboard driver returns nothing for a short press then you can't add any functional support for it. I found those reg keys awhile ago too while poking around and tried the same thing. That was before I knew the raw driver didn't return anything for it though.
