LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 5.1.2, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Screenshots

Coming soon :)

What works

- Display and touchscreen

- Audio (speaker, microphone)

- Camera (front and back, photos only) and flashlight

- WiFi and Bluetooth

- Sensors

- SMS and MMS

What doesn't work

- Video recording

- In-call audio and mic

- Mobile data

Installation

IMPORTANT! This ROM is NOT suitable for daily usage, mainly due to RIL issues (see What doesn't work above and Known bugs below) and various performance issues (although this can be somewhat fixed by using GAPPS alternatives or not using GAPPS at all).

- Get the TWRP recovery from this thread (NOTE: Due to existing bugs with the currently available recovery and ROM you might want to use the old recovery instead)

- Get the latest build HERE

- Wipe data

- Flash the ROM zip file

- OPTIONAL: If you absolutely HAVE to, flash GAPPS (before first boot!). See the note below for more information.

Known bugs

- Google Play Store gets stuck on "Waiting for download". See GAPPS note below for workarounds.

- The device might refuse to boot up and crash upon USB insertion if the battery is below 10%. If this happens, boot into the old TWRP recovery (2.8) and recharge your device there to about 15%.

- Audio and mic in calls don't work.

- Mobile data doesn't work.

- Icons appear low-res (might be due to device being set as hdpi, will likely be fixed in the next release)

- Camera app might occasionally say "Could not connect to camera" (although I've seen this happen on other devices with newer LineageOS, so this might just be a LineageOS problem)

GAPPS

Flash it at your own risk, as it might slow down the device. If you already decide to flash it, use the pico package (although I've tested with nano and a few stock apps and it seemed to run somewhat fine, but keep in mind this was without any other apps). You can also look into alternatives:

- MicroG as a replacement for Google Play Services

- F-Droid as an alternative marketplace

- Aurora Store as a frontend for Google Play Store (you can get it from F-Droid), although it breaks Google's TOS - use at your own risk.

Of course, support will be provided for GAPPS users, just keep in mind that due to general limitations not everything can be done.
