Edit about a possible bootloop following the last update (13/01) :

FYI, the culprit of breaking boot for many devices is the following commit :

https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_system_core/+/314017

It has just been reverted :

https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_system_core/+/321935

Thanks @LuK1337 !
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Kurt Krummbein:
Well, guess you used LOS recovery also for the other trys (or maybe, you need recovery from 13/01 to update to 13/01 ?!?), so maybe doing 1st boot with adb logcat on pc makes the difference ... not really helpful to find the cause of the bootloop :-(.

Sigh

Read the Edit of my previous post.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mickdubs:
I finally updated from 17.1 to 18.1 following the instructions on lineage's website

First I flashed lineage recovery as I was on twrp

Then I updated all firmware after extracting latest OOS from oxygen updated.

Then I was able to sideload 1/6/22 followed by mindthegapps arm64

Everything works got magisk back on without issue by sideload flashing it.

The only cavet was I lost all my desktop shortcuts but all my data was intact.

Next lineage 19 once it drops
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] mickdubs:
Fixed edit above
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] kendallgreen:
Also boot loop after OTA update to 01/13/22. Got out of boot loop by holdng Power UP, DOWN and POWER buttons. Then went into fastboot mode and entered command fastboot --set-active=other. then fastboot reboot.

rebooted to Lineage 18.1 12/16/2021. I will keep it there until I am sure that the next update will work. Please let me know.

Could because of the patch from jan 6th that was reverted on jan 15th https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_system_core/+/321935
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] philrieberer:
Does that mean we can flash now without any problem?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] yoruuba2:
I stand to be corrected but I think those will be included in the next nightly.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ewong3:
also boot loop here, from d/l around half hour ago, will get back to 060122 now...
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] dwardo:
Indeed wait for next nightly... It should work as my self compiled 20220115 daily with the revert did not cause a bootloop
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Kurt Krummbein:
Good to see, the problem could be solved. Shows again, that it's hard to find cross platform influences... one change may break other platforms, making it hard to find, when there no logs and the maintainer has no focus on that change :-).

Any chance anyone knows if this works with verizon?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] g90814:
Just started using this since OP decided to stop updating 6T. So far, so good!

One question: the screen used to wake up as soon as I picked up the phone, now it requires the 2 taps onscreen or press power button to wake up. Any way to get the 'wake up on pick up' function back? If not, no biggie, was just hoping there was some hidden setting I was missing.

Thanks!
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] :
Check under settings - display - advanced - lock screen - ambient display. That should be what you are looking for.

Another option, if you find double tap to wake annoying is to activate always on display, which then means you can unlock the device with a single finger press instead of double tapping and then scanning the finger.

I give it a try now updating with lineage updater from Lineage20220106. I'll let you know in a few miniatures if it worked or not.

UPDATE: this time updater didn't force close like it did when updating to 20220113 ... rebooting now

UPDATE: rebooted in less than a minute.. everything alright so far.

Hi guy i want to install this ROM i on oxygen 11.1.1 rooted magiks bootloader unlock no twrp

What i need to do?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] MrUrgit:
Follow the instructions here:

Install LineageOS on fajita | LineageOS Wiki

wiki.lineageos.org
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] g90814:
Perfect, Thanks! I hoped I was just missing something!
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ELAD098:
Will the device be wipe? Because I do not unlock bootloader
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] MrUrgit:
Unlocking the bootloader does wipe your device.

And from memory, you need to have an unlocked bootloader to install a custom ROM
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ELAD098:
yes my bootloader is already unlocked
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] MrUrgit:
Then start from this step:

"Temporarily booting a custom recovery using fastboot"

Or if you already have installed twrp or another recovery, then you can install via that recovery.

Just be aware you will also have to re-flash your chosen recovery if you don't want to use the built-in Lineage recovery.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ELAD098:
tnx now I'm stuck in a black screen after "Temporarily booting a custom recovery using fastboot"
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] MrUrgit:
You are doing:

fastboot flash boot /path/to/lineage-18.1-20220112-recovery-fajita.img

Or your chosen recovery.img file
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] ELAD098:
fastboot flash boot lineage-18.1-20220120-recovery-fajita.img

At first it is up and did a reboot and when I pressed the volume down key it turned off showed me Lineage Recovery and disappeared right now black does not respond to anything

i see the device in MsmDownloadTool V4.0 but is not start downlaoding

****update all is ok TNX

Just wanted to bump this up. The default camera in LineageOS doesn't focus well at macro ranges, this camera apk works great (the newest one doesn't!) I just searched for the version above on apkmirror and installed it, good to go. Still need to figure out how to get a gallery app to work with it, the one you mentioned doesn't seem to work.. Thanks for posting this!

To update LOS, you need to reflash gapps as well, or only the LOS update zip?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Not-Aus:
Only LOS-update.zip!
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jhedfors:
I have found that using the built-in updater the easiest way. You don't even have to reflash Magisk (if you use it). If I need TWRP for any reason, I just install it via the Magisk app.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Lvsitano:
Are you sure there is no need to reflash Magisk when updating?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jhedfors:
Yes, I update every week with the built-in updater and do not have to reinstall Magisk.

Thank you dear man. Yes, now that official oneplus builds have stopped I can finally put her phone lineage on it for my daughter.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] yoruuba2:
I want to try the updater, but want to confirm that I will be using the correct process, since twrp is my default recovery.

So you use the updater for the nightly. To change from LOS recovery to twrp, you just install the twrp installer zip via Magisk ?

With that process, does twrp stays as default recovery after a reboot or if I need to reboot to recovery?

Thanks
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jhedfors:
TWRP will install and persist just as it does when installing via recovery. I would suggest you then reinstall Magisk in the app, otherwise you will need to reinstall in recovery.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Grimoar:
Hello guys. As Oneplus made our 6T EOL I decided to get back to flashing my phone. Last time I did that was like 5 years ago with my Redmi Note 2, so it was a quite long. I flashed this ROM thru Lineage Recovery followed with MindTheGapps. But i had issues with Android Auto with them. So I rebooted back to recovery, made Factory reset -> Format Data/factory reset and then I sideloaded OpenGapps Nano. That solved my issue with AA. But with both version of Gapps I wasn´t able to restore my Google Backup I made on my phone with OOS. But in Google Drive I can see my Backup as OnePlus6T file. I searched that restoring of the backed data can be done only during initial set up of the phone after new installation or factory reset. But It didn´t work once during both firt boots of the phone ( or it just took too long and I was impatient ). So my question is what is the right proces if I want to flash this ROM again with OpenGapps? Do I need flash back OOS and just then flash Lineage or can I flash Lineage straight? Thanks for any advice.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] g90814:
I would do a factory reset in Recovery, flash LineageOS again, restart to Recovery, and then flash OpenGapps.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Grimoar:
Hi thanks for your answer. And in case if I want to flash recovery also? And if I flash TWRP and then Lineage, wil linege overwrite TWRP back to Lineage recovery? If yes and I will flash TWRP after Lineage installation, will the TWRP became as my default recovery, or it will be overwrited with evry reboot? Sorry for bothering, but I have searched thru lot of threads, but still confused about this.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] bar-aka:
Hi. I've also haven't done any custom rom flashing in a bout 3-4 years. I've been sticking with OOS on my 6T but got fed up with it and decided to try LOS. You don't need TWRP recovery, you can do everything with the LOS recovery.

It was a fairly simple process. I mainly followed the steps outlined here:

Install LineageOS on fajita | LineageOS Wiki

wiki.lineageos.org

Let me write down what I did exactly:

Updated OOS to latest version (11.1.2.2) - Note - I already had an unlocked bootloader.

Did a lot of backups of my current apps and data and copied that to my local PC since you will need to do a full wipe (including internal storage). I mostly used Swift Backup (root). Took a screenshot of my home screens to know where all the icons are

Then I flashed the LOS recover as described in the "Temporarily booting a custom recovery using fastboot" in the link above. It doesn't get overwritten by anything on reboot.

After I booted into LOS recovery I did the following:

Sideloaded (using ADB) the "copy-partitions-..." script

Did a "Format data / factory reset "

Sideloaded the LOS zip package

Sideloaded Gaaps

Restarted phone

I configured some basic stuff on first start,

I also use Magisk so I downloaded it, enabled Advanced Reboot and restarted in LOS recovery again.

Sideloaded Magisk

That's it.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Grimoar:
@ bar-aka

Thanks for your reply. One think what I am curious for is, did you make also Google backup before flashing lineage os? If yes, does the data restore went succesfully on first boot during phone setup?

I was able to flash lineage according to described metod from the same page as you mentioned. It went with no roblem except I forgot flash that " copy-partitions-20210323_1922.zip " and I flashed Linoeage.zip straight after lineage recovery. But I realized that mistake before reboot, so I did factory reset flashed " copy-partitions-20210323_1922.zip " and just then Lineage.zip followed with Gapps. With reboots in between each steps offcourse. But then I was unable restore the Google backup durin first phone setup.

But then I figured out, that in Lineage recovery there is no extended options for wiping of particular parts of the system as is in TWRP and also flashing must be done only thru sideloading in ADB instead of straight flashing of the .zip files as it is in TWRP posible.

So I want to try flash TWRP and then once again whole lineage with gapps. But I am not sure if I have to flash lates oos version, or I can do it straight after TWRP flashing. I read thru lot of forums but still confused with that.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] bar-aka:
Sorry, no I didn't do a Google backup as I don't find it reliable. I prefer backups that I can control, i.e. I can see the actual data/apps that have been backed up like for instance Swift Backup (I used Titanium backup previously). I did also do a full Nandroid backup of the OOS.

As for recovery, I stopped trying to flash TWRP because I had a lot of problems with it on the 6T, I even soft bricked it once. There doesn't seem to be a reliable working TWRP for it right now.

Hey guys.

currently running pixel expierience Andoird 11 version and it is not maintained anymore.

The PixelExpierence Android 12 is not stable enougth for my needs (and also has an mic issue).

So my questions are:

Does out 6T get's security updates fpr A11?

Is face unlock supported?

Is the fingerprint reader supported?

Are the OOS gestures supported like in Pixel Expierience (start camera with an O) ?

Thank you

pOpY
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jhedfors:
No face lock, but has everything else. Eeekly OTA updates available with latest security updates, fingerprint works. I don't use the touchscreen gestures but there are many available.

Hello!

Coming from OOS 11. Flashed the latest nightly.

Have run into my first (weird) issue.

GPS signal is lost when the screen is turned off.

No issue if the screen is left on.

I ride a lot and use voice directions through Google maps. So this turns out to be an issue.

Any thoughts and suggestions for a fix?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Master_TC:
Yesterday i updated like allways trough the lineage updater to the latest nightly 2022-02-03.

My phone didn't boot up after that with the message: corrupt system partition or could not load system.

After trying several solutions, I unfortunately had to give up and format the phone completely. I use the lineage recovery and update it regulary with the lineage updater himself.

So be carefull and don't forget to make a backup.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] popy2006:
Thx.

Which recovery is recommended?

I much trouble with TWRP in the past
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] philrieberer:
I think nothing speaks against lineage recovery. Just follow installation instructions from lineageos.org
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jhedfors:
built-in Lineage Recovery works great. If I find I need TWRP, I install via the Magisk app.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] popy2006:
Thx
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] popy2006:
When Magisk flashed, do I have to reflash after OTA (because of A/B Partition scheme) or does this handle the LOS OTA Updater?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] popy2006:
Another question: Which gapps is currently recommended?

OpenGapps nano -> also available for A11

or

MindTheGapps -> like described in the LOS Wiki: https://wiki.lineageos.org/gapps

In other words: is the LOS wiki uptodate?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jhedfors:
Magisk is retained after OTA - you don't have to reflash.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] jhedfors:
I had used MindTheGapps, but it has been a while.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Grimoar:
I flashed LOS a week ago and had to use OpenGapps Nano due to problems with Android Auto connection with MindTheGapps
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] popy2006:
thx, for the info.

Already flashed LOS with MindTheGapps. Not using Android Auto currently,

so no issue for me.

Until now all is working.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] popy2006:
Tried NGCam NGCam_7.4.104-v2.0 with your config. All is working great except slow motion crashes the app.

Any hints?

Thx
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] popy2006:
Annnnnd another question:

I have spoofed my fingerprint of the device.

So the OTA Shows an other device and security patch.

In the OTA list all OnePlus 6T fatja OTAs are shown. When I copy the link of one it points to the correct fatja files. When I press check for New updates above, it Shows "no New update available" - > I have installed the latest nightly yesterday.

So far so good.

My question: does OTAS work with spoofed fingerprint?

Thx a lot

Yes

I have read the installation instructions on official website. One thing I do not understand. Why do you have to temporarily boot recovery? Don't you want to flash it?

Currently running stock ROM with TWRP recovery. If I would temp boot LOS recovery, TWRP would still be there?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] letmedanz:
You'll have one recovery at a time.

At the initial stage of the installation, you can use TWRP or Lineage recovery.

Once LOS has been flashed, it will overwrite TWRP with Lineage.

You can still go back to TWRP if you like
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] notexcited:
Thanks! I have now successfully installed LineageOS 18.1 on my 6T.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] prabuddhadg:
Hi, I have been running lineageos 18.1 with opengapps for a while now. Rooted using Magisk. But even after the Zygisk update and installing some modules, some apps would detect root and not work. So, I thought I would reinstall the latest OOS 11 and see if rooting that would work more smoothly.

First I flashed trwp recovery img and tried sideloading the oos zip but it said could not read. So, I transferred the zip to a pendrive and tried the install with the temporary twrp recovery, but it said the software would be a downgrade and exited. When I tried to reboot to recovery, it went into Qualcomm Crash Dump mode.

So, I tried the MSM tool but kept getting that Sahara error message.

Finally, I rebooted and the phone went back to Lineageos 18.1.

I repeated the oos zip flashing process with lineageos recovery but got the same error.

My question is, how can I flash OOS 11.1.2.2 now? What did I do wrong?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] prabuddhadg:
Anyway, all that became reduntant because the MSM tool just worked.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Charles::
Ok, this might be obvious to most, but this thread is 47 pages long and there have been issues with TWRP and feels like the process has changed a bit over the months....so bare with me.

Is a factory reset required? I'm on OOS Android 11, rooted with Magisk 24.1. There's a built in flasher in OOS where I just save the newest version to my internal storage and flash. No real need to use a recovery to flash.

Basically:

Save newest ROM version to internal storage

Uninstall Magisk

Flash update ROM

Install Magisk to other slot

Reboot

Can I do that with LOS 18?? Just save it to internal storage and use the built in flasher in OOS or will I have to install TWRP? Can I dirty flash?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] retry0001-coffee:
You never need to use TWRP. You can always use the LOS provided recovery tool. You're on OOS and want to install LOS dirty? That will probably fail or lead to unpredictable behavior. It's risky to dirty flash within LOS when moving to a new major version. To do it from a different firmware entirely seems likely to be a disaster.

The instructions here are current and work: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/fajita/install

You will notice there is no requirement to use TWRP at all.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Charles::
That what I figured too, but I could have sworn I read that someone dirty flashed from OOS to LOS, but I can't seem to find it now.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] retry0001-coffee:
Even if someone did it and reported a booting phone, does that mean the phone continued to operate without any weirdness in the coming weeks and months? If they had weird problems, would have attribute it to the dirty flash? It's like trusting an online product review from someone who just purchased a thing and unboxed it rather than the review of people who lived with the product for a while. Ultimately it's your life and your choice. I wouldn't do it, but I'm risk averse.
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] -MrMM-:
I changed to LOS with the Version from 10.02. I made a clean install with factory reset and format media. I made the Update from 17.02. with the build-in updater and endet in a bootloop. Don't know what happened. I downloaded the Update zip and twrp on a USB stick and flashed them in recovery. That solved the problem and everything works fine so far. But now my trust in the build-in updater is shocked. I think I gave him at least a second try next week.

Any solutions to hide root so far? I'm in the process of reading the thread. Maybe you can give me a hint to avoid reading 48 pages?
[OnePlus 6T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] selste:
Hi,

trying to install LOS 18.1 on a new OnePlus 6T ... and failing miserably, maybe someone can spot my mistake(s)?

1) enabled USB Debugging

2) Unlocked bootloader (including fastboot oem unlock)

3) Powered down phone, then Vol Up + Vol Down + Power to get into fastboot mode

4) fastboot flash boot recovery image, then reboot into recovery

5) adb sideload the copy-parttions zip, then reboot into recovery

6) adb sideload the lineageos package, for the moment skipping any addtional zips, just trying to get the phone working

7) From recovery choose 'Reboot system now'

Phone reboots, shows the unlocked bootloader screen ... and i'm in fastboot mode again :-(

I've tried - at least

lineage-18.1-20220217 (package + recovery)

lineage-18.1-20220210 (package + recovery)

lineage-18.1-20220120 (package + recovery)

plus

copy-parttions-20210323_1922.zip

I even tried an older version of lineageos

lineageos-17.1-20210422 (package + recovery)

plus

copy-partitions-20200903_1329.zip

End result is always the same ... phone ends up in fastboot mode.

What am i missing?

Thx for any input!
