These are stock-based recovery flashable ROMs I've cooked up for the Cube iWork 10 Flagship (aka iWork 10 Ultimate), device i15-T(D).
They are all based on the stock build i15-T_V1.0_20160302, kernel version 3.14.37-x86_64-L1-R429 Wed Mar 2 18:22:46 CST 2016
I have tested these on my stock i15TD purchased directly from cube-tablet.com
If you are stock, unrooted with stock recovery you will need to go here first before you can use these.
WARNING: Flash at your own risk!!!
Make a full backup before flashing!
I would recommend wiping dalvik, cache, data & system before flashing.
For the Odexed versions a factory reset (dalvik, cache & data) will probably work. You might even be able to get away with a dirty flash if you're coming from the same stock build & kernel version, let me know
OTA: Will probably not work with the Stock Odexed version (I wouldn't try it anyhow) and definitely not work with any of the others as I've removed all the OTA stuff in them.
Descriptions
Stock Odexed NoRoot 552.4 MB
-Nothing has been touched here except for changing default location/language, so it boots up in English
Stock Odexed Debloated NoRoot 484.7 MB
-Same as above except debloated
Stock Odexed Debloated Root 489.0 MB
-Same as above and rooted
Stock Deodexed Debloated Root 417.03 MB
-Fully deodexed, debloated and rooted
Stock Deodexed Debloated Root NoGoogle 368.06 MB
-All the stock google stuff has been removed so you can flash a real gapps of your choice. (I have tested opengapps pico and recommend)
Instructions (remember, make a full backup first!)
Boot into TWRP, wipe dalvik, cache, data & system
Flash ROM
If you didn't wipe system in step 1 then go back to main screen, "Mount", select "system"
(if you're flashing the NoGoogle version, then flash gapps now)
Reboot
Enjoy
Thanks
@SuperR. -for the great kitchen
@vampirefo -for TWRP

Thanks for the heads-up man -going to get started tomorrow on cooking up some ROMs for this version...
Sent from my OnePlus2 using XDA Labs
Turns out that build (20160412) is NOT lollipop 5.1.1, still 5.1. No big differences I can tell so far except for lack of play store/services and a bit less bloat. The boot animation is different (not Chinese cube one but text "TOPWING" ???). The device ID is also different.
I think I'll be holding off on making additional zips for this until there's a more serious and official update...

Hi jet, thanks for the tutorials!
I tried to install gapps but I get the error that there's insufficient storage available in system.
Did you get the same error? I'd like to use the stock installer.
According to the logs I have NO free system space.
Edit: I fixed it, might want to mention that you shouldn't forget to mount system!

Yeah, I didn't add it initially because if one wipes system before flashing then it's already mounted. It's the weird location of system partition on this tablet, opengapps (and supersu) install scripts can't mount it.
But, yeah it should be there as you pointed out, so I added it.
Thanks, and enjoy!

Ow, yeah, I had to because TWRP has issues remounting an otg mounted storage device, that might explain why it failed for me.
I just tried installing xposed and it got stuck in a bootloop, not a big issue as I've backed it up and haven't done much so far, but do you know if it's possible to install it?
And, heck, because I'm asking anyway, have you tried reinstalling windows? I'd like to install windows 10 enterprise on this tablet. Might save me the trouble from going to techtablets.

I haven't tried xposed yet myself on this tab, but one guy over on my howto thread mentioned he tried and also ended up in a bootloop. Too much other stuff going on now but when I get around to xposed, if i get it working, I'll post here.
Sorry, can't help you on the windows side at all, in fact this iWork 10 is the first windows machine I've had in years, just android & ubuntu for me these days...
The people at techtablets are more keyed into the windows side of this tab, especially Laura. I'd recommend asking there.
It's the same tablet this and mine that have a Dual Boot (Windows 10 + Android 5.1.1).
And guys, any web page to follow curiosity of this tablet? mods, ROMS, etc...
What I *really* dislike about this tablet:
NO XPOSED... always destroys the bootup of android...
sdk22 x86 is the correct version, but not supported by this tablet... meh

I've had similar before on other devices, flashing a different opengapps (like nano instead of Pico) or older opengapps or even other gapps package has usually worked... Note that you would want to reflash the rom and immediately following flash the gapps

Introduction
This is a UNOFFICIAL build of LineageOS for the Samsung Galaxy Core Plus.
It's not ready yet and has some bugs in it which could cause problems to some users.
The ROM will only work on the SM-G350 Version of the Phone (without any Numbers/Letters behind).
This ROM could be used for daily use now (though you should look at the list of what doesn't work first).
Known Bugs
Camera sometimes switches to green-purple. The resulting picture doesn't have the weird color, but it may be flipped and/or distorted at the edges.
Video Recording
Codecs (some work, some don't. I tested MP4 and AVI, both work. I should really make a list...)
Installation Instructions
Special thanks to @Giovix92 for making this tutorial!
Requirements:
1: A computer with Windows.
2: An Internet connection.
3: A backup of your phone data (contacts, photo, music, videos, and other).
4: About 300 MB free space on your SD card.
5: Phone charged at least 80%.
Download links are below
I do NOT take any responsibility for bricked devices!
Let's start!
1: Download the Samsung USB Drivers.
2: Download the ODIN3. (Only for Windows)
3: Download the TWRP Odin package to your desktop and download the LineageOS 13 zip to your SD card.
4: Make a backup of your files, because the storage will be wiped. (External SD card will not be wiped)
5: Reboot your phone in to the Download mode (Volume Down- , Home- and Power button). Press the Volume Up button when asked. Then open the ODIN3 and connect your phone to your PC.
6: Press AP and choose the TWRP Odin package (recovery.tar) and make sure re-partition is NOT ticked. "Auto-Reboot" should not be ticked either, otherwise you will need to be quick to boot into the recovery immediately after flashing.
7: Press start! Wait a few seconds. Then your phone will be rebooted. Now you can disconnect the cable and power off your phone.
8: Boot your phone in to the TWRP Recovery (Volume Up-, Home- and Power button).
9: Go to Wipe, and Swipe to Factory Reset.
10. After wiping go to the home screen by pressing the home button.
11: Go to Install. Choose the "external_sd" from the top bar. (It says "Storage: Internal Storage (xxxxMB)" by default)
12: Choose the LineageOS 13 ZIP and Swipe to Confirm Flash. Make sure you don't power off while flashing!
13: After the zip has been flashed choose "Reboot System".
14: Wait 5-15 minutes to boot the phone. If the phone keeps booting take out the battery and do a Factory Reset again.
15: When the phone boots the first time, go through the Setup Wizard and you are ready to use your phone!
If there was something you didn't understand, please don't hesitate to ask

Still working on that.
I just noticed that the sound sometimes "breaks" and sounds like damaged speakers (just for a part of a second, nothing permanent). I don't know if this is a software problem or just my phone. Can someone confirm that? It sometimes happens when doing a call or pressing random numbers at the Dialer. It also seems to happen only with standard sound level or higher.
I'll check it after I fixed (or tried to fix) Internet and SD Card
This is the same on stock when listening YT idk why it happens.
For the sdcard fix check if there are correct mounts for vold.fstab or framework
BTW. Videoplayback isnt working good on YT on Internet browser and is glitched too on chrome.

something about the vpn? or maybe something isnt compatible with cm13?
I searched on google and disable the firewall could be a solution.

Well, i just red here "https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/official-cm13-nightly-builds-rolling-out-for-opo.411202/page-103" that its may be fault of the recovery. I dont think that we all got the same twrp though, is something you can test? i used santori's twrp, i had it flashed quite a time. maybe an update or a modification will solve that issue
I knew we need TWRP 3.x.x to install an Android 6.0+ Rom. So, the network issue, could be related to the recovery version.
We should to update the recovery first, to install Marshmallow (and up) on a smartphone

Hey, I'm new here at xda forums. I just installed this ROM on my galaxy core plus, and it works great. My phone is now super snappy. But many features don't work as of now, the bluetooth actually worked for me, I didnt expect it to after reading the post. When will these bugs be fixed, and more importantly how can I follow so that I can get my hands on the new release as soon as it gets out? Thanks a lot!

I still need to search what causes the Internet and SD Card to fail. Bluetooth does work, only Bluetooth Calls, Car connection and other devices are untested.
You can subscribe to this thread or subscribe to the DevDB project, to get a notification if it's updated. To get updates on your Smartphone, you could install XDA Legacy (Tapatalk) or XDA Labs (just called XDA) from Play Store.

CM Recovery didn't fix the problem. And I somehow can't get TWRP to boot.
During the last few months I have been testing several Nougat rom/kernel/modem/su combinations for the hlte N9005 international.
I created this thread to share my setup, hoping it will help others to save the many hours of research, trial, error and frustration I had before reaching the jackpot.
I have 3 hlte phones at my disposal, two myself and one my wife. All three are running trouble free.
By using my setup you will get:
Absolutely no freezes, reboots or FCs
Stable root and Safetynet checks ok
GPS fast and stable fix - average 5 seconds worst 20 seconds
Low battery drain (of course actual drain depends heavily on your apps and usage)
Everything works (AFAIK - you tell me what does not)
Keep in mind my main goal is to provide a stable setup. I will do my best to update this thread regularly, but it is very unlikely I will be using the very latest builds available, mainly because before I adopt a new build it must be thoroughly tested.
If you're interested head to the guide in Post #2
Why Resurrection Remix?
RR has, IMHO, the best combination of features and stability. The RR team has been around for a long time without the ups and downs of other roms. For the Note 3 we are in a very fortunate time, with an official build and many unofficial builds to choose from.
Since RR is based on LineageOS, it is available for most devices. It is very likely when we finally retire our Note 3 and move to another flagship, RR will be there for it.
Why Not Oreo?
Well, thread title says it all.

Rock Stable Setup
Using Resurrection Remix
Revision 11 - 11-Mar-2018
Phase 1 - Prepare for install
Here I am assuming you have a Windows PC. If not you will need to use google search to adapt my instructions to your available OS/hardware. The PC is only required for this phase.
1 - Samsung USB Driver:
Make sure you have the Samsung USB driver installed in your Windows PC.
If not download and install the latest driver:
- SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.65.0.exe
2 - Odin:
If you do not have Odin, get it here, unpack to any folder and create a shortcut pointing to Odin3 v3.09.exe.
There are newer versions of Odin, but they may have issues with our Note 3. Odin v3.09 is the one to use.
3 - TWRP
New to TWRP? Read this guide: TWRP: the complete guide to using Recovery on Android.
If you do not already have it, install TWRP 3.2.1-0. Download it from https://dl.twrp.me/hlte. More info here.
If you no not have TWRP installed download the .tar file and flash with Odin.
If you have an older version download the .img file and use your current TWRP to flash the image into recovery partition.
4 - Update Bootloader and Modem:
You have to install latest Nordic Countries Bootloader and Modem. I have prepared a "tar.md5" with both.
And yes, modem is not country or region dependent. Rest assured Nordic will work no matter where you are.
Get it from here: N9005_Nordic_XXUGPQB1-Modem_XXSGBQD1-Bootloader.tar.md5
Updating bootloader and modem is a must!
If you don't you may get the "SIM Card not detected" error and GPS fix will be slow or not work at all.
There are many sure ways to flash modem and bootloader so that they "stick". What always works for me is:
- Restart into Recovery (TWRP)
- Select Reboot->Power off
- Turn on directly into download mode by holding Down Arrow+Home+Power at the same time
- Connect phone to PC
- Flash with Odin using the AP slot
Now you should check if update was successful. The best way is to install the app Phone INFO, run it and select the Firmware tab. The correct Bootloader and Baseband (modem) above should be displayed. There is a screenshot in first post.
If the update did not work repeat the steps carefully until it does. You may, as a last resort, after powering off remove the battery, wait for about 30 seconds, reinsert the battery and then turn on directly into download mode.
Thanks to @Hereiwas for the files I have used in previous setups. Check out in his thread Bootloader and Baseband for SM-N9005.
If you need more info on flashing modems and bootloaders also take a look at @jcadduono thread [Direct Download] Latest Bootloaders & Modems.
PHASE 2 - Download the necessary installation files
1 - Resurrection Remix Nougat rom - thanks @vidwhal:
Download from here: RR-N-v5.8.5-20180101-hlte-Official-vidwhal.zip.
Please note that I am not the rom builder or developer. All credits go to @vidwhal and the RR Team.
This is the rom thread: [ROM][HLTE][UNOFFICIAL][OMS]Resurrection Remix N.
Please note this build may not be the latest available. The goal here is to have a stable rom that you will be able to use as a daily driver with no issues for a long time. Only after a lot of testing a new build makes into my setup.
I modified the zip to remove Magisk. This will make it easier to use newer or beta Magisk builds if necessary in the future. Remember Safetynet is a cat and mouse game and changes happen fast.
Special thanks to @tarkzim, who produced the RR builds used in earlier setups. He did a fantastic job of producing a very stable build without a Note 3 device for tests. His builds led me to create this thread.
2 - Magisk v16.0 Official - thanks @topjohnwu):
Magisk Installer: Magisk-v16.0.zip
Magisk Manager: MagiskManager-v5.6.1.apk (optional - you might need it in the future)
Magisk Uninstaller: Magisk-uninstaller-20180222.zip (optional - you might need it in the future)
if you decide to use newer builds do it at your own risk. I strongly recommend to keep these.
3 - Gapps:
Open Gapps Pico: open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20180311.zip
Not much to say here. Open GApps FTW.
Again the above build is the one I tested. Use this for a failproof installation, but feel free to use a newer build. Usually it will not be a problem.
I prefer Pico Gapps so I have the bare minimum as system apps. And I live by the KISS Principle. All other gapps I need are installed as user apps so I am allowed to use Titanium Backup to backup/restore them with data.
If you would rather use another Gapps package just pick the one you want. All packages should work but the Aroma. Aroma does not work in TWRP 3.
4 - Xenial Kernel - thanks @Jairus980:
Xenial Kernel: [Hlte][Xenial-b26x][02.01.18][N7.1-GSM].zip
Kernel thread: [Kernel][Xenial][Hlte].
With Xenial you have some fixes like the correct charging current in lock screen and working Gravity, Linear acceleration and Orientation sensors. Of course there is a lot more under the hood. If you plan to do some kernel tweaking Xenial offers more options.
If you do flash Xenial kernel do not report any bugs in RR thread. To report a bug you must first go back to stock kernel by dirty flashing RR and Magisk. If you are still able to reproduce the bug then you may post it in RR thread.
Even if there is a newer kernel release, you should keep using the build I posted here to have my tested stable setup.
Special thanks to @gj86 for his Synergy Kernel, used in my previous setup. It is also a great option.
5 - GPS Fix:
In this setup there is no need for a GPS fix. GPS is fast and rock stable as it should always have been.
But you really must update your modem to my recommend Nordic QB1 or GPS will be slow or not work at all.
Do not worry about your current location. The modem will work not matter where you are.
Latest RR builds somehow made GPS fix slower. I checked the gps.conf file and it is exactly the same as in previous builds.
I have my own optimized gps.conf, prepared originally for Marshmallow CM13, with a few more adjustments for Nougat.
After installing my gps.conf in latest RR build, gps fix is back to normal, taking only a few seconds.
I prepared a flashable zip to install my gps.conf. It saves existing gps.conf and put mine in its place.
Download it from here: Fix-GPS-for-hlte-la14.1-based-roms-v1.zip.
PHASE 3 - Backup!!
Now it is time to make backups of your current setup.
Use TWRP to make a nandroid backup. You will need it if something goes wrong. If you are paranoid like me make two and save them on your PC hard drive.
If you use Titanium make also a Titanium full backup. Remember that you should never restore system apps or settings. Use Titanium only to restore user apps and xml backups of wifi passwords, call log and sms messages.
The steps to install the new ROM will not erase your internal storage, but why not make a backup of everything to your PC or an OTG USB Drive.
PHASE 4: Install
- Make sure you have updated TWRP and your bootloader and modem as instructed in phase 1
- Make sure you have all files downloaded from phase 2 in your phone - preferably in external sdcard
- Make sure you have backups!!
- Reboot into Recovery (TWRP)
- Use advanced wipe to wipe System, Data and Cache
- Flash RR-N-v5.8.5-20180101-hlte-Official-vidwhal.zip
- DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING
- Reboot System (be patient - it will take a while, around 3-4 minutes)
- Pick your preferred launcher
- Check Settings->Date & Time and make sure it is ok
- Reboot into Recovery (TWRP)
- Flash [Hlte][Xenial-b26x][02.01.18][N7.1-GSM].zip
- Flash Magisk-v16.0.zip
- Flash open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20180311.zip (or the one you prefer)
- DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING
- Reboot System (this time it will be faster)
- Go to Settings->Accounts and add your google account
- Customize your other settings
- Run Magisk Manager and check if SafetyNet passes
- If not disable/reenable "Magisk Hide" option in Magisk Manager Settings and try again
- Restore/install apps/data
- PROFIT!

wow, nice to see that someone using and "sharing" my builds
but a little tip for you, maybe you can ask me first before you post something are modified from me, no offense and i saw that includes my name on it.
just remind you and i think i will keep building this when i'm free, anyway, thank you for posing this. all good.
EDIT: also i think there is no need for removing magisk separately, it's fine for flashing newer magisk over the older one.

Sorry, you are absolutely right.
Thanks for being cool with it.
The main point in changing the rom zip is removing the magisk manager system app. It is a little tricky for noobs to remove the system app to be able to install the v5 beta Magisk Manager.
And thanks again for making your fantastic RR build available.
Thank's for your work. I installed all, but then I had a problem. When I try to open settings/apps, it crashes everytime....

This does not happen in my phones.
In my work phone I have 600+ apps installed. It takes a while to open but no crashes.
If you post a logcat I may be able to help.
I reinstalled everything, and before made a full wipe, also of the internal storage. And the problem was no more present! Wow! And thank you again...
I checked AFH and have 30+ downloads of installation files.
Any more success or failure cases? Please let me know.
This might be a silly question: You wrote I should download the latest NORDIC COUNTRY Bootloader and Modem.
Is this also correct if im not living in an other region or should I download the one from my Country? Thanks.

AFAIK it should work for you no matter where you are.
I live in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil and use it.
If it does not work for you just flash another one.
I tried the Nordic ones and everything seems to work. Not a killer but would be great: is there a way to get SPen functions inclidung Air Command? Thanks for the help.

To use Sammy Spen apps/features you need a Touchwiz based stock rom.
There are some apps with similar features for AOSP roms.
Many users say the best is SPenCommand developed by @emandt. It is paid but users say that the app is well worth the price.
Check the SPenCommand Google+ Comunity.
Great post. I don't see google assistant working, any clue?

I installed SPenCommand but the App doesn't open. When clicking the Icon nothing happens. Anyone knows about this Problem or knows another app for this?
Beside that everything (incl. Batterylife) seems great on this first day of testing.
I have followed your step to instal, wipe dalvik/art, system, data & chache. Flash ROM then reboot.
I got 'Could not do normal boot'.
Enter TWRP again and instal synergy kernel and reboot, I still got 'Could not do normal boot'.

I have never used SPenCommand myself. Just read good things about it many times in other threads. Try to search and get help from people who are using it.
You may also check these apps: Note Buddy (S Pen Helper) and CM S Pen Add-on(ROOT).
And this guide on them: The Ultimate S Pen Customization Tool for Your Galaxy Note 3.
But be advised that I have no experience using these apps. Just found them using google.

Sorry I can not be of help here. I only have the hlte N9005 international Note 3.
Maybe you could replace Synergy RC9 by a kernel that you are sure works with your N900S.

Team DevDigitel Presents:
Stock With Goodies =)
This is a stock based rom based on the QI5, QK3, QL9, RA6, and It is Pre-rooted with SuperSu, Heavy Debloat and some slight adds, this is just the basic start, Moded boot animations and removal of all carrier info that is not sprint, so non sprint users... well sorry, this is the sprint side of things.. if you want to flash this and you are non sprint, go ahead and do so, then after phone has fully booted one time, put phone in download mode and flash your carriers csc, please do not request support in this thread for porting to other carriers.
WHAT YOU NEED:
You must have already Rooted your device with SamFail, You also will need FlashFire and Busy-Box installed and some common sense!
FlashFire : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.flash&hl=en
(OR)
SAFE STRAP TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...covery-locked-nougat-7-1-1-safestrap-t3772765
Busy-Box: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.busybox.installer&hl=en
Okay here lets get started, and oh wait..
And as always, I can not be held liable for the damage or malfunction of your device using these files, you proceed at your own risk and remove my liability by continuing to the downloads portion of this post!
STEPS:
Step 1: Insure Busybox is installed into system directly. I prefer /system/xbin
Step 2: Install FlashFire and grant it root permission
Step 3: Click the Little RED + button in the bottom right corner and choose Flash ZIP or OTA
Step 4: Navigate to where you have downloaded my rom and select it.
Step 5: Check the box next to ( Mount / System read / Write) then hit the check mark in top right corner
Step 5.5: If you are not already on my rom, you must choose WIPE and do a full wipe, this is deodexed and the old data needs removed, this also needs to be put at the top of the flash list to be done 1st just click and hold on the wipe and drag it to the top.
Select the following : Wipe System Data, 3rd Party apps, Dalvik Cache, Cache Parition.
Step 6: Hit the FLASH button at the bottom and hold on for the ride! If all goes well you should have installed TeamDevDigitel rooted stockish rom and enjoying yourself.
Step 7: Hit the thanks button at the bottom of the post and keep checking back here for updates!!! Photos attached to post to see how things should look on boot-up and during install using FlashFire.

Status : Stable
BUGS / KNOWN ISSUES:
*Pop-up While being plugged into pc saying device can not be used, this is normal just dismiss and use as normal.
*Certain Apps do not work due to being rooted; SamsungPay, SHealth, SecureFolder and others are effected by this.
some apps now working with tima=0
*If you get stuck in setup wizard, please click back and go forward again, if it still wont proceed just reboot phone and it will make it through the setup. This happens randomly for setups it seems.
If you are having audio issues : go to /system/etc/mixer_paths_tavil.xml and change to mixer_paths_tavil.xml.bak2 and take the mixer_paths_tavil.xml.bak and remove the .bak off of it. This essentially turns off the dual speaker mod, but shouldn't need to be done, some apps just may not like dual speaker mod?
Removed This pre-built in feature on BRB4 due to many apps not supporting dual audio this way.

Haha !!! 1st! Can't wait to give this a go. Thank you for your hard work! You rock!
Well ive narrowed down the camera to a issue with the updater script and the links/perms to the hardware for camera. Not sure where to start as the stock img and the eng img built very different scripts.. gonna have to play around some and see.
WOO!!! Glad to see you got it working before me!
I wanna go for a ride.. I'm buckling up!

Yes that's correct
Both are still not working. I'm still just in testing phase that it's flashing with flashfire and booting correctly for multiple people. Wiping data etc and it still works. Looking for fc's etc. I'm working on redoing the scripts in hope the cam and flash are just tied to the perm/metadata/symlinks auto generated by my tool

What happened? I'm thinking you would need to have selected wipe system and data and placed it at the top 1st because you are coming from a non deodexed Rom and i completely forgot about this step as I've been on deodexed myself for some time and it wouldn't effect me. If you want to give it another go that would be what would cause the issue.

One question - I'm not rooted (yet); does flashing this (and hence being rooted) limit us to charging up to only 80%?
Thanks in advance!

Ok thanks - just got my note 8 on Saturday and I'm dying to root it. I'm just having a hard time accepting a 20% loss lol.
Hopefully the masterminds figure out a way to overcome that.
Can we continue to discuss topics about the new - big thx to devs, btw! - official 17.1 version in this thread, pls?
(I know the differences to the unofficial version(s) might be minimal - or even null? - however I think it's always of value to be as clear, sharp and crisp avoiding ambiguities, esp. for folks who are not too familiar with the different contexts)
BTW: just for the record my (dirty) upgrade path from lineage-16.0-20201003-nightly-hlte-signed.zip version to lineage-17.1-20201010-nightly-hlte-signed.zip was as follows:
DLed / copied off my NAS the files of lineage-17.1-20201010-nightly-hlte-signed.zip, open_gapps-arm-10.0-nano-20201010.zip and Magisk v20.4 to external SD)
Let the system DL and install recent pending updates
Rebooted into Recovery (twrp-3.4.0-1-hlte)
Created a nandroid backup of Boot, System, Data and EFS partition to internal SD (and copied those to the external SD, plus a further copy to my NAS)
Wiped Dalvik / ART Cache, System and Cache partition
Installed LOS and GApps
(Dirty) Rebooted into System letting the system run a couple of minutes, checking for updates etc.
Rebooted into Recovery
Installed Magisk
Wiped Dalvik / ART Cache
Rebooted into System
(Enabled systemless host file in Magisk to support Adaway Adblocker app)

Quick questions:
1. Does that AdAway work well?
2. Does automatic dark mode work for you? I have to turn it on manually. Maybe due to turned off GPS so it can't get my location and set sunrise and sunset times?

1 : yes

re 1: yes2 (using it quite some time on various devices and it seems to do what I expect it should do, though some apps seem to bypass the 'normal' DNS resolution. OT: And I'm still haven't made up my mind yet if DoH or DoT are good or bad ...)

Sorry. It's dark theme (I don't have English set as default language). [emoji846]
installation error
https://download.lineageos.org/hltetmo
Can somebody please confirm that paying through NFC works? If so - what's your modem and baseband?
Also I've installed GAPPS PICO maybe that's the case? Although on LOS 16 I also had Pico and it worked, but maybe I'm missing some app like Google search or something?
Been using Lineage OS 16 ever since it was officially released for HLTE. I gotta say, the development of that release has came a long way and by the time of writing this, I'd say it's the most stable and clean custom rom for the Note 3 out there.
I did try the new release the second I received a notification for an update. How did it go? Well let's just say I'm glad I created a full system backup before wiping LOS 16. This new release is still very buggy, unpolished and missing a lot of features. Nothing that will render your phone unusable, but compared to 16, it doesn't stand a chance, which is understandable.
I do appreciate all of the time that the devs are still willing to put into the platform. However I'd recommend users that are looking for a rock stable experience to stick with Lineage OS 16 for the time. You're not missing out on a lot.

I think your statement will get more weight, when it will be supported with some facts:
It'd be helpful if you would underpin your statement with some of your findings about e.g. which bugs you found and which features you are missing!? thx

I have to agree with you, because except my 2 issues (with NFC payments and night mode that doesn't switch automatically) I actually don't have any other problems.
Ver. 17 seems faster and snappier than 16.
Also on 16 sometimes sharing from ie. Firefox to WhatsApp caused the later one not loading (just black screen).
So for me only that NFC seems to be a real issue. Other than that I'd advice anyone trying 17.
made a clean flash with nanodroid and last lolz..the rom is mostly usable ..
got sometimes, not often some little freezes and stock music stop..otherwise it's reliable
both options, stay on 16.0 for stability or move to 17.1 are possible...

for me the only difference is the size of the home screen changed (changed trebuchet to a larger grid before), otherwise i would not even have noticed it is not 16 anymore, rock stable even after a dirty flash

got sometimes, not often some little freezes and stock music stop..otherwise it's reliable
both options, stay on 16.0 for stability or move to 17.1 are possible...

Can we continue to discuss topics about the new - big thx to devs, btw! - official 17.1 version in this thread, pls?
(I know the differences to the unofficial version(s) might be minimal - or even null? - however I think it's always of value to be as clear, sharp and crisp avoiding ambiguities, esp. for folks who are not too familiar with the different contexts)
BTW: just for the record my (dirty) upgrade path from lineage-16.0-20201003-nightly-hlte-signed.zip version to lineage-17.1-20201010-nightly-hlte-signed.zip was as follows:
DLed / copied off my NAS the files of lineage-17.1-20201010-nightly-hlte-signed.zip, open_gapps-arm-10.0-nano-20201010.zip and Magisk v20.4 to external SD)
Let the system DL and install recent pending updates
Rebooted into Recovery (twrp-3.4.0-1-hlte)
Created a nandroid backup of Boot, System, Data and EFS partition to internal SD (and copied those to the external SD, plus a further copy to my NAS)
Wiped Dalvik / ART Cache, System and Cache partition
Installed LOS and GApps
(Dirty) Rebooted into System letting the system run a couple of minutes, checking for updates etc.
Rebooted into Recovery
Installed Magisk
Wiped Dalvik / ART Cache
Rebooted into System
(Enabled systemless host file in Magisk to support Adaway Adblocker app)

Hello. I have the latest version of LineageOS 16 installed and TWRP (3.3.1.0). I ask you if, after transferring the ROM file to the phone, it is possible to use TWRP to upgrade to 17.1 (by installing the zip file) or if I have to use ADB shell (as it says on the LineageOS official site).
Sorry I'm not an expert and some steps are not clear to me
Thank you
PS
Why you wrote "dirty"
(Dirty) Rebooted into System letting the system run a couple of minutes, checking for updates etc.
Hi Apten
i) think your Qs won't need a full quote
ii) drity flashing
iii) sure you can DL the ROM (and TWRP) to your (internal RAM) of your phone and upgrade or clean install from recovery (twrp)
