Just installed 21, its nice, no issue with installing but let's see if it keeps my EVS modifications for the modem. But I noticed one thing in 20 that still exists in 21 and I wanted to wait to check it out if the "bug" is a false positive. As you know, this phone does not have a Wi-Fi 6 chip officially. But me having a Wi-Fi 6 router shows up in the Wi-Fi settings. It's like the Wi-Fi system recognizes Wi-Fi 6 but can't use it. Is this by design or is there something that's missing to use hidden AX-mode?

FYI I asked this before about Qualcomm and the FastConnect6200ish WCN3990 chip. Back then I didn't have a Wifi-AX router but now I can test it.

Bellow you have examples of Wifi-type.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
Again off topic, is there a active project on porting 4.19 and 5.4 5.10 to this device or devices running 855?
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dor_pauli:
I can't boot the device into recovery mode with the buttons. If I use volume down + power, it boots to fastboot mode. Same for volume up + down + power. Is this normal? Do someone else experience this behaviour?
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] vaneno:
When you are on fastboot mode, simply press volume buttons , to rotate other options (included recovery mode)
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] SickCuriosity:
How come there have been no updates after the 20240315 build? Maybe I'm just spoiled with the weekly OTA updates in previous versions, but I'm starting to get a bit worried. Especially since the current version is not super stable...
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
There is a major challenge with the March update for Android 14 - putting building completely on hold. Not aware of a dedicated point of information but saw information a. o. in the Pixel 2 LOS 21 thread here.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] SickCuriosity:
Thanks for the heads up. I'm guessing you're referring to this thread? If so, does the OP7T have the same `android.hardware.radio@1.3` problem? That sounds scary, ngl...
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] SickCuriosity:
Nevermind, I did the googling I should have done earlier. This reddit thread has some pretty detailed info on the quarterly security update causing the delay. It seems like hotdogb is on the list of devices that should be safe, so hopefully we can get new builds soon.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
They mention the risk of early retirment of some devices. Are we talking about Linux kernel 4.4-4.9 or everything pre-Mainline will be downgraded to ASB updates only?
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] thefanum:
Root.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] SickCuriosity:
The PlayIntegrityFix module still works to pass BASIC and DEVICE integrity if you can find a working print.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Spoonoid:
Updates are back!
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] SickCuriosity:
Hell yeah! A big thanks to the maintainers for keeping this device alive and kicking...
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
With the updates being back, I am wondering to migrate finally from LOS 20 to LOS 21. As I am not really in favor of a clean install (wiping data), I was searching on experience with same/similar setup as mine: LOS 20 with NikGApps core and ih8sn (which seems to be obsolete now ... :-( ... meaning I will uninstall it at that point). Also, the issues with NikGApps (bootloop) seem to be officially resolved.

I found two reports doing a dirty flash without issues (beyond theme and certification) - see below. Anyone else experience with a setup closer to mine?
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] xda_johndoe:
FWIW I don't use ih8sn or NikGApps.

I am on lineage-21.0-20240419-nightly-hotdogb-signed.zip with MindTheGapps. Everything seems fine, though I am a lite user these days.

❗Nitpicking.

(Not at LOS but Google and maybe not even worth to mention but...)

20240419 Bluetooth "quick" settings got updated (to "slow" settings. From On/Off single click to expendable 3 clicks. UX took a couple of steps back.)

Google silently blocked the RCS messaging. (Early in the year.)

Something changed with Google Assistant. Don't know when, and haven't looked into it. Couldn't make a call with it. Didn't use it much.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] gilcu3:
I was surprised that the last updated went much faster than usual, from typically more than 15 minutes to probably less than 5.

On the other hand I think the Charging control is not working anymore. In previous version a reboot would fix it, but now it does not.

Risking being out of scope, this update also made root hiding mechanisms harder, is anyone having Google Wallet contactless working after it? I am using Magisk Alpha, Lsposed Mod, HideMyAppList, Shamiko and PlayIntegrityFix Fork as usual, and passing Basic and Device Integrity. For the first time in a while Applist Detector is able to detect Magisk, libc and syscall file detection specifically.

PS: Google Wallet began working after the usual 24h wait, therefore the previous detections seem to be luckily meaningless.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] xda_johndoe:
Faster updates, pretty nice. Was mentioned somewhere, in LOS blog or in their changelog. Don't remember how far back.

Once in a while I use "limit charging to 80%" and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I'd get the notification that it has reached that level, and it would stop charging past 80% other times it keeps on going until fully charged.

Doesn't bother me, though the feature is made to reduce "premature" battery wear.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dor_pauli:
I did an OTA update from lineage-21.0-20240308-nightly-hotdogb-signed.zip to lineage-21.0-20240419-nightly-hotdogb-signed.zip last week. This went without any problems, except that I can confirm that battery charge control no longer works.

Now I wanted to perform the OTA update to lineage-21.0-20240426-nightly-hotdogb-signed.zip, but the phone immediately reports an error and cancels the installation.

I have tried to find similar reports, but without success. The only clues I could find are the following links to Changelos from lineage.

https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_build/+/391261

https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_vendor_lineage/+/389719

Does anyone have the same problem, or is there more information to be found about it?
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Spoonoid:
I had the same issue I think. I rebooted and it seems the 20240426 was installed nevertheless.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dor_pauli:
I also did a restart. Probably too quickly, so that the installation was not yet complete? But then I tried again and I'm still on 0419. I'll try to wait longer later, thanks.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dor_pauli:
Look, in my first report on the problem (https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-official-hotdogb-14-lineageos-21.4657089/post-89482339) I already posted a link that could be related to this. It describes a problem with overlayfs and broken OTA. You are probably more familiar with it and can analyze it if you want. Here is the link: https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_vendor_lineage/+/389719

In addition to your solution, another solution is also described there. And thanks for the hint and the logs.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] x-pve:
About charging control - I'm running 240205, upgraded from Android 13. Charging control doesn't work. It shows a notification about charging control, something as "Battery will be fully charged at 08:00" (alarm time) but the battery is actually charged ASAP.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dor_pauli:
Your solution has found it's way into the next build: https://review.lineageos.org/c/Line.../391705/2/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml

But I've read a bit about it and prefer to be careful. Because is it really safe to use dm-verity in every case? What if you don't use pure LineageOS, but have Magisk or ih8sn set up. The system has theoretically been modified. And couldn't dm-verity cause problems with future updates, e.g. from LOS 21 to 22?

What about the other solution of simply deleting the affected partition?

adb reboot fastboot && fastboot delete-logical-partition scratch && fastboot reboot
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
After 2 months I finally got a update and the Wireguard support increased the speed of my VPN.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
Clean or dirty? Any other packages besides the plain ROM?
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
Clean, I use preinstalled microG, the huge QPR2 build issue postponed updates with 2 months. As I'm on root, Wireguard works much better in the background thx to the kernel addon.

So good news everyone. We just got a much better wireguard support.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
After figuring a few details not obvious for me from the NikGApps upgrade manual as discussed here (this and few previous posts), I managed to upgrade to LOS 21 with NikGApps core last night via dirty flash. It was in the end so smooth that I was after reboot to system not sure whether I look at LOS 20 or 21. 😆 I noticed as well that the previously present ih8sn patch is gone but it was anyway without relevance since the March bans by Google of various fingerprints.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
Can confirm also on 240517 - charging control does not function (neither limit nor target time).
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] PiranhaPhish:
Has anybody with HD1907 (T-Mobile) variant tested this yet?

The 1907 is a bit of a red-headed stepchild, initially excluded from official hotdogb support. When it was finally added in LOS 20, predicated on being converted to HD1901 (Global), there were a handful of issues that plagued only that variant.

Nearly all those issues got ironed out eventually, at least for me. But I'm worried that an upgrade to LOS 21 could be problematic.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
I encountered with the update from 240517 to 240524 a similar situation: I started the update and it was in the second phase when I checked last. Next what I saw in the updater was that it offered me the same update again for download (which I had done before ...). While having the updater open after the vanished update process, it crashed also once. In the end, I gave it a try to reboot and the update is installed.

ADDITION 8.6.: Smooth update from 240524 to 240607 as it should be - no such issue. Indication of update being finished and option to reboot.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] eadmaster:
fastcharging does not seem to work for me, i've tried with different cables and AC adapters, but according to my USB meter it never draws more than 1A.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
I noticed an issue: VPN seems to not function well.

Trying to connect to two different points via build-in IPSec, I fail most of the time (constant display of "connection being established" (Verbindung wird hergestellt...). Also when double-checking, no connection thru VPN is possible. Sometimes, I am having success when deactivating/activating WiF - mostly (but not always) to my own local connection point when re-activating WiFi and connect to the local WiFi. While doing so, I noticed that - while the device tries to connect - changes like deactivating WiFi (activating use of 4G(+)) or activating WiFi is not reflected in the interface (e. g. status bar on top or in the settings). Seems like something is "stuck" in the network settings.

Anyone else observing this or similar behavior? I had no such issues for sure before upgrading to LOS 21 and I believe I had used VPN before. So, it can be also related to a recent change in LOS 21.

For reference:

lineage-21.0-20240524-nightly-hotdogb-signed.zip

NikGapps-core-arm64-14-20240420-signed.zip

no Magisk or alike

one IKEv2/IPSec PSK & one IKEv2/IPSec MCCHAPv2

both work fine from other devices

persistent across reboot
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
Kind of in topic, I have Wireguard(ROOT) on all the time but when I check the toggle on quick settings it flashes on-off-on again.

Best way to be sure is to check DNS if the VPN is the main tunnel.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
Yes - same behavior here.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
I suspect its Doze, I even whitelisted Wireguard from batterysaver and data usage, its should just work in the background. I also stopped using custom DNS, the VPN is enough.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
To add some observations:

Being on 4G(+) continuously, I can connect somewhat reliable to the point using IKEv2/IPSec PSK while I see still drop of 4G(+) indication in the status bar until being connected. When connecting to the point using IKEv2/IPSec MCCHAPv2, I see also drop of 4G(+) indication in the status bar which will only come back upon terminating the attempt to connect (usually via connecting to the other point as no time out seems to be considered).

Guys, finally y back to stock. I continue los21 on my poco f1. I use a lot doble tap and some times dont wake up. Until end of june i continue with stock (works requirements) and after i try again .

If someone can feedback me about this ,double tap and if works nice, whats version gapps use. Thaks !
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
Not sure whether there is an absolute measure for "nice". What I can say is that it works for me all the time since upgrading from LOS 20 "nice". No observation linked to requiring slow double tap. Once in a while, a double tap is not recognized but it works right after at the same speed.

GApps: 100 % happy with the same as you are using - NikGApps core. Functioning flawless and good support by the maintainer in case of questions - see thread on XDA.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] vaneno:
"nice" its simple when i make double tap , works and i notice its work all of time but some times simple don't work. When this succes, i can do doble taps arround 1 minute with no response, but if i push power, wake up, and lock again, doble tap works again at frist. (Virtual proximity sensor maibe??)

When i stay on stock i fell that all double taps works. Obvius i prefer and love los21 more than stock but i choose working rom.

For example ,on poco f1 i dont have this issue.

With this, I don't want to belittle los21, i just want to look for the problem that is annoying for me. Im user of custom roms since cyanogen6 with htc 😅😅 . I take this as a pause.

Is it possible to install LOS 21 with Nethunter Kernel? If so which one should I install first
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
Maybe its the clean they did to the firmware?

@LuK1337, with this commit message, do you mean everything not SM8150 and later can get Wifi-AX support?

*This is to allow supporting WiFi 6 mobile hotspots,

to be noted this is only supported on SDM855+ platforms.

I look up the gerrit for checking up what's being added to other phones.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Johnsen1972:
hmm, ok but I need to make sure that the curtom kernel like the kali nethunter kernel works with Lineage OS 21?`Can I brick my phone if that doesnt work? ?
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
You should be able to replace the kernel, its as custom as it can get. Stock is worse, you can't do that much. But for stability stay with LOS, they just added Wireguard and you can downclock the phone with apps.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Johnsen1972:
I have no sound after installing LOS21 with Gapps 14 and Kernel SU. No sound at all.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
Which build and which GApps? I have sound with latest build and using NikGapps core.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Johnsen1972:
MindTheGapps-14.0.0-arm64-20240225_232108.zip its probably the kernel Su? ##

I sideloaded OP7-LOS21-kernel-SU-11872.zip
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
I would guess so as well but no experience on this part.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Johnsen1972:
ahh well it took me a few hours, but I EDL'ed my phone back to Android 11 and installed the full version of Kali nethunter. runs nicly.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
An update from my end: Due to your challenge, I was testing the use of double-tap more extensively and I had indeed one occasion on the 240607 build where it took me quite a while to activate via double-tap - while not sure whether it was succeeding in the end due to slow tapping or another factor.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
Question about BLE and LC3. Yes I know this model and the Snapdragon 855 doesn't support true BLE audio but my question is, has anyone been able to use LC3 codec on BT classic mode? How did it perform compared to other proprietary codecs present in AOSP? Same can be asked for those who use the Pixel Buds Pro that support Opus on the 7 series.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] NewEXE2:
Hello! I'm curious if face unlock functionality is supported in this ROM. If not, is there a way to re-enable it using Xposed/Magisk or any other method?

(sorry for probably stupid question)
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] haneefi:
Quick setting is can change in lock screen also. it is a security problem why its not fixing this rom
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
I need to flash the modem.img because one of my sim slot stopped working after I played around with OpenEUICCID

fastboot flash --slot=all modem modem.img

But will this affect the ROM and Magisk? I have done this before but now fastbootD doesn't recognize my phone.

nevermind, YOLO it. Now the simcard is immediately recognized.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
Finally, I figured what was wrong with the non-functioning VPN. As I understood, IKEv1 (which is the actual protocol of the connection point) is discontinued in Android 14 (Android 13 presented just a warning) and - I guess - IKEv2/IPSec MCCHAPv2 was just filling the gap of the removed IKEv1/IPSec PSK (or so).

So, plain incompatibility of server and client. Settled - not solved.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
Could this be the reason for the VPN toggle turning on-off-on when in view? I thought the root version would be whitelisted from battery saver, same with IMS.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
Thank you to everyone involved on maintaining this ROM!

Building on what was reported before on the updater: I updated today from 240628 to 240712 and the updater presented at some point the option to download again the 240712 build - nothing about reboot as I know from other LOS 21 ROMs with A/B setup. I forgot unfortunately to take a logcat at that point but rebooted and ended up with a (according to system info) correctly installed 240712 build.

Will try to remember grabbing a logcat the next time it occurs ...
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] shmp30:
I installed latest version and it is pretty stable for daily usage. Thanks devs.

But Camera quality is lacking, do you guys have any recommendations for Gcam that works on this rom? Thanks
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Feenix0:
Have you tried acc? https://github.com/VR-25/acc It does require root to work.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Feenix0:
I'm currently running LOS for microG (an unofficial fork with microG and spoofing built in), version 21-20240709. MicroG isn't bad, but there are too many things that don't work quite right. Since I've mostly given up on my quest for data privacy -- it's just too much work 😢 -- I'm migrating back to Google/Gmail and want all my Google stuff to work properly again.

1) Can I dirty flash official LOS 21 over LOS for microG 21 and have it work right?

2) Which version of GApps is best to use? I was just planning to use the Open GApps, but I see references to a variety of other versions on this thread, so now I don't know.

FYI, I use NordVPN on this current setup without any trouble.

Edit: Looks like Open GApps only has releases up through Android 11, so that's a no-go.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] js-xda:
To my knowledge not a good idea without wiping data.

I use NikGApps core - working all good.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] borisSweden:
Hi, is anyone using OpenEUICC on their phone? It a package that allows retrofitting eSim support on all reusable eSim cards? I'm asking because something is missing and it doesn't work as intended. Retrofiting E-Sim support would be great.

Edit: @LuK1337, any comments
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] xda_johndoe:
No, I have not. Thanks for the link, skimmed through, bookmarked.

I'm not rooted. Not a priority for me. I have tried to root (around 11 June 2024) through Magisk, to my surprise I failed. Maybe I didn't spend enough time with it. Don't remember what I got stuck on. "Patching Images" or "Magisk in Recovery" and maybe failing at one of the steps in the terminal. (Though I'm comfortable with terminal running on Ubuntu.)

It's not a bit deal for me that charging doesn't stop as supposed to. I use KDE Connect - Apps on Google Play, GSConnect - GNOME Shell Extensions for other things in general, so when I see a notification on my laptop I just go and disconnect the charger. Works out as a "pomodoro timer" in a way, to get a break. lol
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Varaskal:
Is anyone able to get the "DeviceAsWebcam" feature to work?

It looks like it was officially added as supported in the July 6th version, but I can't seem to figure it out as I can't find it in my developer settings or as a drop down when plugged in to a PC via USB.
[OnePlus 7T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] LuK1337:
It's still not supported on this device.
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Is there a way to automate text messaging such that I can send a message every day to a certain number, containing the same message each time?

Meaning that for example:

---Monday @ 6PM, msg sent to ###-###-#### with text: (some preset message)

---Tuesday @ 6PM, msg sent to ###-###-#### with text: (some preset message)

---Wednesday @ 6PM, msg sent to ###-###-#### with text: (some preset message)

and so on, so forth.

This would mean that you wouldn't have to set it up for each and ever day (like in the program PowerSMS).

I have a T-Mobile Dash (unlocked to HTC S620) running Rose ROM 1.7a (by Stylez and Ricky)
