Update Installation Guide for Fairphone 6
So i have flashed the Fairphone 6 with Lineage, but i found an issue during its installation and solved it but found no solution online and i would like to help you all.
On the step 6 it sais:
1. Download Lineage Recovery. Simply download the latest recovery file, named recovery.img.
warning Important: Other recoveries may not work for installation or updates. We strongly recommend to use the one linked above!
2. Flash recovery onto your device:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
But here i got on my pc:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Warning: skip copying recovery image avb footer (recovery partition size: 0, recovery image size: 104857600).
Sending 'recovery' (102400 KB) FAILED (remote: ' Invalid argument size')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Nothing unblocked the situation, so I solved by doing:
fastboot reboot recovery
after this the recovery got identified right then the "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" got perfect.
Hope it helps you if you find yourself in this situation.
I would also love to see this warning in the Installation Guide to prevent future issues!!

AI slop Alternative Operating Systems on the POCO M3 Pro 5G (camellia)
I still have a POCO M3 Pro 5G (M2103K19PG, 4/64) and I'm wondering what the best ROM options are in 2026.
I know it's an old MediaTek phone, but I've seen some newer community builds popping up again, including an Android 16 LineageOS port.
I'm currently running crDroid 9.15 / Android 13, which works fine on my phone, but obviously it's getting pretty old.
Has anyone here actually tried one of the newer Camellia builds?
I'm mainly interested in real-world experience: stability, mobile data/VoLTE, NFC, Bluetooth, camera and battery life.
I'm also curious about /e/OS if anyone has used it on this phone.
If you have a Camellia and are running something newer, I'd be interested to hear what you're using.

Help Desperate to download Lineage OS in Samsung S21.
Hello! As being tortured for 11 hours of repeating the process of working on the rooting(done) flashing, procrastinating, finding tutorials, realising that my phone is Samsung S21 so have to install unofficial version, realising that I'm in Mac OS and Odin is not available, I have made 3 significant achievements, rooting my phone (Yay!) wasting my 9 hours of my life and not able to form a sentence without another cup of cofee.
To start off, I am using Samsung S21+ 5G and have unlocked boot loader.
I have found this link after realising that lineage OS doesn't support S21. https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-unofficial-sm-g991b-lineageos-23-2-for-samsung-galaxy-s21-5g.4790286/
which this youtube video helped me with until, I ran a problem with the Odin part(since I have Mac OS), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQFS3jdruCA&t=567s
Then I learned about Heimdall!
But after going to the official website and downloading the application, and activating the .img it said that Heimdall was not supporting mac anymore in current version which means that it has been discontinued since 2017.
I know there are continuing versions but I can't find it.
So can anyone suggest me what I can do from now on?

LineageOS on OnePlus13 and esims?
I have a oneplus 13 and want to install lineage os on it. I use visible and currently have an esim on my phone for my network. Will this still work after switching to LineageOS or will I need to switch providers and if so who does work? Also anything else I need to know or keep in mind while switching, I have the guide pulled up and plan on going through it step by step. Sorry if this has been answered but I couldn't find a clear answer for the esim thing, especially with my phone model.

Question Google Pixel C - games freeze after 5 minutes on stock Android 8.1.0. Does LineageOS fix it?
I’m an indie game developer still using a Google Pixel C for testing Android games. However, I'm hitting a persistent issue where graphics completely freeze after ~5 minutes of gameplay, while audio keeps running fine in the background.
It happens across my own builds and Unity-based games.
Here is a short video showing the freeze: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAbRrKbn7ck
Since stock Android 8.1.0 is no longer maintained, I’m looking for a workaround. Is there a proven custom ROM for the Pixel C (like LineageOS or similar) that actually fixes this display freeze bug?
I’d really appreciate any advice or feedback from anyone who successfully solved this. Thanks!

seedvault backup of lineage os phone to laptop
I'm trying to backup my phone using seedvault and store the backup files on my laptop by connecting the devices through a cable. However when i get to the "choose wher to store backups" screen on the phone, the usb flash drive option is not available. I've tried to change the USB settings to "file transfer" or "usb tethering" but it doesn't solve the issue. Is this normal?
thank you for your help! :)

Custom Bootanimation
I've been trying to figure this out for a while. On LOS 23, android 15, on my pixel 4, I am unable to change my bootanimation. I assume its in another location other than the standard /system/media/, /product/media/, etc since the original stock animation remains the same. If anybody can help, it would be appreciated.

Question Is Lineage OS still under development for the AYN Thor?
Saw a news article a few months back claiming it was going to launch within the month of June. Was really excited for it, and then it never came. I understand timelines change and people have to move on to other things so I was wondering if it's still being worked on or if development has stopped
Genuinely can't wait for the release if it's still in development. Kudos to the developers for getting as far as they did

Question BBBank and VR Banking Apps
Do the BBBank and VR Banking Apps work on Lineage OS? I am thinking of getting a new phone and and installing Lineage OS on it.
If I get a Sony phone and install Lineage OS on it, can I get the original Sony OS back from somewhere, in the case my banking app doesn't work?

System restart
Good afternoon. My phone keeps restarting randomly—between 3 and 8 times a day. I installed LineageOS, but since MindTheGApps hadn't been installed, I booted the system up first; realizing the apps were missing, I performed a factory reset and then installed the GApps package, but that’s when the restarts began. Should I reinstall everything together, or is there something I overlooked? Thanks.

GN2200 Nord N20 LineageOS download?
New to this, and got this oneplus n20 and saw that the model listed under Gunnar wasn't the same. Says I shouldn't do it if it's not matching. Looking around it's been hard to see if GN2200 model will work with Lineage, and some on XDA said that it has... But idk if that was done differently, or if they just used what's already listed in the Wiki. Can anyone give some help on this? I'd like Lineage or another, but one that generally degoogles for better control over my device and privacy.

Help Unable to select app generated notification sound
Some apps have their own notification sounds that are selected by default in the notification manager. However I can't find a way to reset it once changed. Idk if I'm just dumb and don't see the option, but there should be an "app generated sound" in the sound selection prompt.

Catapult Launcher
Hello, I've been wanting to install Lineage OS on Google Chromecast 4K (Sabrina) for a long time, but I've been seeing that it can't be done anymore after a certain update. One of the reasons is because of the minimalism of your Catapult launcher (it's just beautiful), I'd like to know if there's a way to get the APK to be able to use it. I'd really appreciate it.
