Introduction
LineageOS 11 is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.4.4 (KitKat), 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 their Gerrit Code Review.
Aims
This ROM is created with the purpose of kick-starting some development to make our Nexus Q's useful again. The newest working ROMs for this device were from 2014 and CM11 based. These are now very outdated and needed security patches to be safe to use and so I have built a new ROM from the latest LineageOS 11 sources.
Once this ROM has been optimised for the Nexus Q a little further, I shall explore altering the interface for TV and Desktop editions to make the device more useful. I may also attempt to port newer Android versions (5.0+) in the future so we can get a full Android TV experience on this device and compatibility with newer apps.
Features
Improved LED support
Stock Nexus Q boot animation (see #4 for preview)
Standard CM11/Lineage OS 11 features
More Steelhead-specific tweaks & additions coming soon....

New build! (02/23) - Additional LED Ring Control
XDA isn't letting me upload new files at the moment as it keeps producing errors building checksums and so I've given up and started hosting new builds on AndroidFileHost until they fix it. Once XDA have sorted the issues then I'll try to upload them here (as well as using AFH as a mirror) but for now any new uploads will just be on the latter.
Anyway, in this new build (20180223) I have improved LED ring functionality by modifying the Android notification framework so that the notification light can be changed by apps even with the display on. In theory it is now very easy to control the LED as we like since it can be used like any a phones notification LED but without the screen off limitation.
At some point I might try to develop an app which syncs the LED to music or something cool but in the meantime if anyone else fancies having a go at something like that then please do as you will now be able to without using any Nexus-Q specific APIs.
You can test this new functionality using an app like LightFlow from the Play Store which can set custom notification colours for any app and you'll see the LED ring change.
I also made a quick demo of cycling between colours which you can see a video of here: https://plus.google.com/+CharlieCallow/posts/WAfcBmg7MYF.
The built-in The CyanogenMod/Linage LED control still seems to be a bit flaky but it's fine with third-party apps which have LED settings (like Lightflow).
Anyway you can download the new build from below. If you are upgrading from the first build just flash this one over the top and wipe /cache & davlik cache.

New build! (02/28) - Original Nexus Q Bootanimation
A tiny new update from the last build. This one swaps out the Lineage OS boot animation for Google's original boot animation from the Nexus Q stock system image.
Also, XDA seems to have fixed the file upload issue so the latest version is uploaded here again but I'll upload to AndroidFileHost shortly a link it as a mirror.

Sure, it's up on AndroidFileHost now: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754466172. I've also added a link to the Nexus Q page on my AndroidFileHost.com developer profile to the OP as a download mirror for all of the files posted.

Development update
So, good news: I think I have the a build which should support the amplifier, HDMI audio and optical output in the same ROM.
Bad news: My Nexus Q seems to have given up the ghost! It seems the Micro HDMI port has failed. I can't get a signal out of it no matter what I boot regardless of the display I connect to. I hoped it might be the cable but I tested with a spare cable I had lying about and still no joy! This could mean the end of this little project as I can't procure another Nexus Q here in the UK and I can't really do this without a working unit! :crying:
I've ordered a brand new Micro HDMI cable to test for certain but it's not looking good! I'll keep everyone updated.

It's not likely to be easy to repair if that connector is broken and parts will be hard to come by. I'll wait for the new cable and see how that goes first.
In the meantime, I have managed to test my new build by connecting to the Nexus Q via Vysor as a workaround to see what's going on. While autoswitching still doesn't work yet, the amplifier now does work and so I'll be posting a separate amp build soon for those who want to use the amp instead of audio over HDMI or TOSLINK.
I am also hoping at some point to add A2DP sink support so that the Nexus Q can be used as a bluetooth receiver. That would be particularly handy with the amp build for people who want to add bluetooth to a set of bookshelf speakers.

Keep up the great work, recently dusted off my Q and this looks promising, would love if we could have simultaneous Bluetooth output but unsure if the hardware supports it. Do hope we can get an auto audio switching feature or a togglable setting to switch audio outs.

Thank you soooooooo much! I can't believe there are somebody still remembering Nexus Q.:good:

Any update on the build with amplifier support?

Sorry, this project got sidelined when I had issues with my Nexus Q's HDMI port. I got it mostly working again for now but I've since been very busy with work & other projects. I hope to pick this up again late August / early September. In the meantime I'll try to dig out the existing build I have with working amplifier support as I've had a few requests for it!

Please pick it up again! I've just done my occasional forlorn search for Nexus Q goodies and had a brief burst of hope. I recently got a Google Glass for the price of a curry which has renewed my interest in the old Google gear, my ideal situation would be the Nexus Q acting as a Cast target with working LEDs and amplifier, that's all I would want. I have it running on an old Cyanogen install but that's not exactly functional.

Just stumbled upon my old paperweight, the Nexus Q and decided to look around before finally tossing it - glad I did! I am looking forward to trying this out this week. Hopefully the amp will work (and some pretty LEDs) as this was my player for my outdoor stereo.
Anyway thanks for reviving my hopes!

So I dusted off the Q ball and plugged it in to give it a shot and I got an issue when upon rebooting into the bootloader screen. I cover the Q, it flashes and turns red, then nothing. If I cover it again, it spins blue LEDs and I am prompted with the following:
"ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix? THIS CAN NOT BE UNDONE"
Then i get the following choice:
"No"
"Yes -Disable recovery flash"
"Go Back" - which just reboots it again.
At the bottom it says "ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.3.1, Formatting /data... Formatting /cache..."
Which should I select to upgrade to this to the LineageOS? I remember there being issues with these getting bricked so I just wanted to double check.
Also, what program do I use for fastboot? Is there a link - its been too long!
Thanks for the help.

Use the one from CM11 thread.
Thanks for the wonderful ROM
Cool boot animation :good:
Flashed the latest nightly. Booted up fine. But for some reason the keyboard wouldnt show up while registering the tablet. Probably fault with Gapps package? I dont know. So I skipped tablet registeration. Navigation bar was disabled, so I enabled it through settings (Buttons>enable on-screen nav bar). Pretty much like CM but has special features like Active Display, Short Cut bar ( which shows up in recent apps), list view animation, Split view. We can also "lock apps" in the recents menu which prevents it from being cleared away.
But got " Unfortunately, Google Keyboard has stopped" error all the time and I couldnt type anything.
IMO this would get more users if this was posted in the "Android Development" forum.
EDIT: Hmm it seema the problem is gapps package in GENERAL. Weird. Tried both PA gapps and the one from cyanogenmod site. Both cases force closes and keyboard unable to open. Went on and did a fresh install without any gapps package and had no crashes and the keyboard worked as well. But for me its pretty useless without Play Store.

Thanks for building Mokee for the Nook HD/HD+!
I haven't had the chance to check everything but so far it looks pretty nice. However, I have Ovation and the build has an incorrect storage_list.xml in framework-res.apk. It appears to be a generic storage_list and not for our devices.
I flashed the latest nightly but upon checking the release build, it also has the same incorrect storage list. Of course with this incorrect file, storage in settings does not read sdcard1 and a file manager is unable to find it as well. Additionally, when connected to a PC the device just comes up blank. I just took a look at the Hummingbird build and it also has the incorrect storage_list.xml.
I've attached a file below containing the correct storage_list.xml for our devices.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dq0ayclmfvndbk0/storage.zip
Btw, I flashed the latest Mokee gapps listed in the OP and had no problem with the keyboard came right up and away I went.
Thanks again and I'm hoping you can get this squared away. Also, as mentioned in an above post, I think this would get more exposure in the "regular" Android development. This "original" forum has always been kind of a dead area in the Nook forum.

Ow snap! That's what the problem was . I should have read the OP more carefully regarding the GAPPS. I had totally freaked out when I saw that the storage was not accessible. I thought it was only with mine.
Excited to see this. Once pie control is ready I'm all over this.

Don't know if "strafed" is just a typo, or you are talking about the correct storage_list.xml file I referenced above??? If you are talking about the storage_list file, it pretty much has to be compiled in the build. I just attached that file so that the dev could see the difference between his framework compiled in the build and the correct one.
It is contained in the framework-res.apk in /system/framework of the rom. If someone has experience with apktool, (requires java) it can also most likely be edited. Unfortunately, with my limited experience I tried and could not get it to work.
Btw, downloaded the latest nightly and it still has not been corrected. From the looks of it, the dev hasn't been active on XDA since he posted this here. He may end up being another in a long string of disappearing devs in the Nook HD forum.

OK thanks my phone changed storage to strafed and I didn't notice.

I tried the latest stable build this morning it still can't see the sdcard.
-------------
Tried inserting the file in before flashing no luck same errors.Unfortunately not my area. I have tried building from source and just can't seem to get it straight.
It's already fixed, try the next RELEASE version, or go for the nightlies
Will do so sometime this week thanks. It does look pretty cool the little bit I did play with it.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Free mobile app
New version is much nicer and it does see the sdcards. No FCs yet either. So far I am enjoying it.
Never mind had to format my nook as it overheated just playing with settings. Shame I really like the look and feel.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Free mobile app
Running the latest mokee on my HD+. Very nice experience. Android version is 4.4.4. It does overheat a bit.
I'd just like to say thank you to the Mokee team.
I've been on Cyanogenmod nightly's for ages but switching to this (01\09\14 nightly) has invigorated my tablet.....So much quicker and fluid than before....
Might even give it a spin on my Oneplus One ?
Thanks again.
Sent from my BN NookHD+ using XDA Free mobile app
Is overheating still an issue? I'd love to give this a try but as everything "works" on my current ROM (albeit slowly) I'm a bit hesitant to try this, overheating is important to me since I read a lot on my tablet.

Goal: Provide a similar CyanogenMod and AOKP experience which I enjoy to others with the same taste
Methodology: Build CyanogenMod (latest version) locally and cherry-pick unmerged revisions so that we may have the best of the future right now. AOKP will be built straight from nightly source.
Reasoning: It's silly to wait for the next new thing...With CyanogenMod's Gerrit code review, I've found it to be nice to able to pick-and-choose things that seem beneficial.
Release Type Update 08262014
I have now listed the URL to get onto Google Drive where my buildbot automatically uploads to once finished building. These are not tested, as I can't flash a new ROM every day. However, they are a nightly build catching you up to CM11, plus whatever cherry-picks I talked about previously...This means that previous cherry-picks are maintained even throughout the nightly builds.

Sure, I can give it a shot. From which ROM? Pretty sure it will have to be a source-based ROM.

I have it cooking up right now. Not sure if it will work, they seem a little dicey about it in the comments (having "fixes" for it and such...but I will try it!)
EDIT: Also, I'm a weirdo about ETAs...I love it when people give ETAs, but realize that I work 45hrs/wk and I am also a full-time student...Real life comes first, but I still love you guys.
EDIT2: The feature requested is in a broken status...They can't get everything to work with it, so I'll wait for a more finished one before picking it.

The speaker phone microphone works afaik but the speaker phone part does not. That's what I've found in my own testing. I haven't seen anything come up in Gerrit, so maybe it is just me having that issue.

Last I saw the speakerphone issue was fixed in the device tree in the sound configuration xmls. But if its anything like it was on the m7, its intermittent. Sometimes a reboot would bring it back. It was a frustrating issue.

Yes, I know where it is. But you need to wait some time. I have other projects. Sorry. It's all about not enough time and financial resources. You can try other my other MM releases. Especially BeanStalk and Temasek's CM13. Try what works best for you.
Plans have changed. I'll bring a SNAPSHOT build soon, with necessary fixes.
Fantastic Alexander
NEW SNAPSHOT BUILD
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224386332
Installation: Full wipe/Flash ROM + OpenGApps
You can use this build for now. I need to do more corrections, so I'll bring my best version soon and will delete this one later.
What will be changed in the future release:
1. Snap video recording will be corrected (not a big deal, you can successfully use Open Camera for that)
2. I'll remove some system apps, (like stock browser) and post it here, so if you really need it, you can just download apk files and install it as user apps. (This is for improving performance)
3. I'll remove screen blinks (Am I only one who see it? Let me know, leaving a comment)
Previous build made by rata** (r3t3ch) was removed. I want to emphasize he made that build. His toxic behavior and manner of talking speak for itself. Clearly, he's not an adult human being. He doesn't want to admit his mistakes, thinks he's a center of the universe, knows everything and poops in the brain if you just trying to help him. This is unacceptable and I will not stand such a toxic behavior.
What's new:
1. You can normally watch YouTube now (no patchy sound, it was easier than I thought)
2. Stock browser was replaced with Gello browser (already regret about it, the size is too big. Though it works)
If you'll find something not working, leave a comment here, I'll check it and if I'll not find it - shame on you. Though you can prove me wrong using logic and facts.
Hello,
Is there a suitable kernel for cm13 which allows for CPU to run at 1.7mhz, CPU voltage adjuster, USB fast charge, and speaker gain adjuster? Any number of adjustments is fine.
Thanks

Click to collapse
Texas Instruments' description the maximum is 1.5mhz, so clearly I don't recommend you to find a suitable kernel for cm13 which allows for CPU to run at 1.7mhz. You can try AudioFx or DSP Manager to adjust your speaker.
I have no time for custom kernels. I'm too busy, you know. And unfortunately, often too much distracted (which is the main reason why I do these things so slowly). I need to correct CM13, Omni, Slim6, CandySix + bring 3 more AOSP MM ROMs (it's close, finally I found missing piece to make it boot), so I can say my job is finally done (I'm not satisfied for now). I want to finally start working on Nougat for tate.
Ok, everything seems fine except Snaps video recording. If I'll not find solution for that, I'll just bring last version of this SNAPSHOT and then move on. I have a lot to do.
Also, seems like nobody uses Google Calendar. (error -505 in the Play Store). The solution in the description.
PLEASE REDOWNLOAD THE BUILD
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=385035244224386732
Installation: Full wipe/Flash ROM + OpenGApps
I can't fix Snap Camera video recording for now. My advice to you: disable Snap Camera or better delete it (I always delete system Camera). Install Open Camera or another 3rd party app. No problems with 3rd party camera apps (Of course, I didn't try them all, it's impossible) And let's be realistic: you won't get good images or videos with this type of camera anyway. The purpose of this camera is video calling which it does. (not sure if it works with 3.0.101+ kernel but 100% I've seen Hangouts video calling working on one of my MM ROMs).
Like I promised, no screen blinks for now and I've removed some system apps (which you can find in the description if you need it).
I need to move on to the next ROMs now.

Hey Alex,
Great job in creating these ROMs, I will test them out as soon as possible and will of course provide feedback, hopefully all goes well. Also if you are planning on bringing nougat for this device, then you my friend are a wizard! Can't wait to hear back from you.
Edit: Okay... For some it keeps on saying "download failed" for the open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20161028, I've tried downloading it from github as well. Man, such bad luck already at 2:50am =(
Finished downloading the ROM before though.

Quick request, whenever I try and download open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20161028 it keeps on saying "download failed" when it comes to finishing at around 106mb. Is it possible if you can upload this in Google drive (or any other cloud server) so that I can download this without it failing. I've tried looking for aalternative websites where I could download the gapps, but it ended the same way xD. Thanks bro! =)

Alright, got it to download =)
The boot time took around 4 minutes, I was really surprised when I saw Android Upgrading because everything looked so different, the looks of it beats them all. The setup was quick and simple. My first impressions of the ROM were that it looks good and is more reliable than android 5.1 (my experience with 5.1 was dreadful, too laggy!) The reason as to why it's more reliable is because for once the stock camera app actually works! This got me surprised. For kernel adiutor I did configure the "low memory killer" and chose very aggressive, however, since this is marshmallow I understand how much RAM it takes up, I had around 240mb of RAM left so not really sure if that's a good or a bad thing (in this case). Battery seems decent enough. For quadrant standard, I ran the full test and got around 12,398 that's actually quite good considering on android 4.4 I usually get around 8,000-9,000. I just want to know why the GPU OC is set on 384 as max. I did encounter a lot of minor bugs, in this case in the settings app whenever I click on a GUI the borders on top go from its original colour to black constantly. In the quick settings, whenever I were to click night mode, it would show the screen blinking for around a second or two (not sure if this is normal).
Regardless of the minor bugs, this ROM has potential! Hopefully in future releases you can get it to work more stable and lagfree. Can you recommend me which of the android 6.0 ROMs work best for you? Thanks man! This ROM still beats any android 5.1 I've tried on this device.
Kind regards,

Myself5, CarbonROM
Source Code: https://github.com/CarbonROM
ROM OS Version: 8.x Oreo
ROM Kernel: Linux 3.x
Based On: AOSP
Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2018-04-01
Last Updated 2018-07-19
Wow thats good. Thank you very much.
Hi, Myself5! Thanks a lot that you still support our device though you have newer devices.
User experiences and issue list for 2019-03-11 Release
First of all, thanks to @Myself5, @rcstar6696 and all other members of the CarbonROM team for the release of CarbonROM 6.1 Oreo for our device! :good::victory:
User experiences with CarbonROM 6.1:
Installation was smooth. I flashed cr-6.1 and OpenGapps ARM 8.1 on top of my working cr-5.1 installation (dirty flash), so all of my apps and their settings were kept. MindTheGapps 8.1.0 arm, which are recommended by the Carbon devs, are also working fine. Keep in mind that there is no guarantee that a dirty flash works in all cases, so you might have to wipe your data partition. This generally is recommended when updating to a new Android version anyway.
Besides of some small issues (see below), everything runs stable and the system is snappy and smooth. Thermal management and charging speed is fine.
Magisk 16.0 works fine, as well as Xposed Framework (SDK 27) v90-beta3 or alternatively Systemless Xposed (SDK 27) v90.1-beta3 Magisk module. However, there are some force-closes of background apps every now and then, caused by the beta status of Xposed v90.
My Xperia Torch Boost Magisk module is still working well on cr-6.1.
Selinux is set to enforcing, just as it was in cr-5.1.
I found out that Android Messages SMS/MMS app has a high battery drain, which e.g. is also reported for Pixel devices on Android 8 Oreo, so a general bug by Google. Because of this, I switched to Textra SMS (of course you can also use one of the other SMS/MMS apps around), which fixes the battery drain.
Improvements in comparison to cr-5.1:
The camera button now acts exactly like in Sony Stock ROMs, so now focussing and taking pictures is possible with Stock Sony Camera. You can also invoke the Stock Sony Camera by long-pressing the camera button, just like in Stock ROMs, but this doesn't work when the device is off or locked. In this case you can use a double press on the power button, which can be enabled in Carbon Fibers settings.
Booting the device is noticably faster than on cr-5.1.
Lower battery drain than on cr-5.1.
Better, more uniform design.
The ROM is being updated to the latest Android Security Patches.
Apps can be "locked" in the Recent Apps, so when pressing the Clean All button, they keep running.
4K video recordings are possible.
Missing features in comparison to cr-5.1:
There is no option to turn on Network Traffic Indicators yet. (This has been added in 2018-04-05 Weekly.)
Default Camera-App does not allow to save photos to sd-card, puts photos in wrong orientation and is all around very limited. However, there are good alternatives like Open Camera and the Stock Sony Camera. (Since 2018-05-01 Weekly, Snap Camera is used again.)
Issues in Carbon ROM 6.1:
Video recording doesn't work yet with the built-in Camera app, as well as with several other apps like Open Camera and the Stock Sony Camera. Until this is fixed, you can use Footej Camera for video recording as a workaround. (This has been fixed in 2018-05-08 Weekly by @AdrianDC and Milos Ratkovic.)
DoubleTap2Wake isn't working yet. (This has been fixed in 2018-04-11 Weekly.)
The SystemUI (Quick Settings etc.) always is shown in white theme. I know that this is Oreo's default design, but it should change to dark theme when using a dark wallpaper. (See @Myself5's reply in post #14.)
The gyroscope doesn't work properly yet with certain apps, e.g. Vr Tester - Gyroscope Sensor App and Accelerometer Gyro Tester. (Obviously this is a bug of those apps or of Oreo in general, since @Myself5 could reproduce it on his Pixel 2 XL device, running on stock ROM. Many other apps that use the gyroscope are working fine on cr-6.1.)
Saving and accessing files on SD card doesn't work for certain apps and tools, which could be a Linux permission or SELinux denial issue. For further information and partial workarounds, see post #45, post #49 and post #51. (This has been fixed in 2018-06-05 Weekly.)
Screen Cast still isn't working for me with 2018-04-11 Weekly (I tested this with a Sony and an LG Smart TV which both connected fine to my Z3c on stock ROMs), even with the new boot image from post #103 which is working with @Myself5's Fire TV stick and Wireless Display Adapter. This has been fixed in 2018-04-17 Weekly.
WiFi isn't working on 5 GHz band in some countries, as has been reported in post #1634 on the Z2 cr-6.1 thread, including links to posts with possible workarounds and fixes. There's also an article in the xda wiki with further information. Since 2018-05-01 Weekly, Germany (DE) is used as Wifi country code, but there have been several reports by users from other countries that this doesn't work for them, so is not an universal fix. As a workaround, until this is fixed, you can use my Magisk module from post #195, which you have to change to your own country code by following the instructions that I gave there. Edit: @marcogiannetta posted an improved Magisk module in post #373 which changes the Wifi Country Code accordingly to the system language. A similar issue (wifi dosent connect in Iran) also has been reported on the bug tracker and is being looked after by the devs. Edit: According to post #2092 on the Z2 thread, this issue can also be fixed by installing WiFi regional problem solver Xposed module.
Music files can't be played from SD card with Vanilla Music, Sony Music and several other players. This issue was fixed in 2018-05-08 Nightly, but reappeared on 2018-05-15 Nightly. Until this is fixed again, you can use jetAudio HD Music Player as a workaround. (This has quickly been fixed again in the 20180515-2340 Weekly build.)
When making a screenshot via the Power menu, most of the time the Power menu itself is visible in the screenshot. There should be a slight delay (just 1/10th second might already be sufficient), so the Power menu is already hidden again before the screenshot is taken. This has been fixed in 2018-07-05 Weekly.
Apps like Netflix, MyCanal and MagineTV don't work because DRM WideVine is not supported yet, whereas in CarbonROM 5.1 it was supported. This has been fixed in 2018-08-15 Release.
Lock screen rotation has been removed since 2018-09-11 Release. It was a useful feature when using the phone in landscape orientation e.g. in a car holder and IMO should be added again. Edit1: As a workaround, I made LockscreenRotationEnabler Magisk module which adds this functionality by adding a setting to 'build.prop'. Edit2: Lock screen rotation can also be enabled with GravityBox [O] Xposed module.
NFC extended length isn't supported, which is needed e.g. for reading identity cards with apps like AusweisApp2. (This has been fixed in 2019-03-11 Release.)
NFC-HCE isn't supported, which is needed for Google Pay. (This has been fixed in 2019-03-11 Release.)
Wish list for some further improvement of Carbon ROM 6.1:
Long press camera button to wake and launch camera app when the screen is off or the phone is locked. Edit: I found a workaround which I described in this post.
A toggle to switch to dark UI theme for quick settings. Edit1: The dark UI theme can be forced with ForceDarkModeOreo Xposed module. Edit2: ForceDarkModeOreo unfortunately is one of the Xposed module which cause random app crashes, so it's not advisable to use it. Let's hope that the devs will add this feature eventually.
About time this one got its own thread, huh
Everything works great, no bugs so far and no problem with camera recording (using Footej Camera), though missing hardware key rebindings and i cant enable power notifications
Downloading right now. Lets see how it compares to Omni 8.1
EDIT (my comment from a few pages later):
After a few days with it, I can say it's already suitable for daily use. Using MindTheGapps (tho I will switch to OpenGapps pico, I don't want Google app ), Magisk 16.
It's smooth and very stable. No crashes or major issues for me so far.
Battery life is acceptable, worse than stock (doh), and perhaps even LOS 14.1. Thermal management and charging speed is fine.
No idea about the camera, mine is broken (HW) and I never use front one.
A few suggestions and comments:
Add some power balancing options like with LOS (better performance or battery life).
Also, I love how you can customize RGB values on LOS to make it more yellowish even during day, plus night light. Any idea what workaround I could use? My blueish screen is killing me and I can't use night light all day.
Good to hear night mode is being worked on.
How to make quick tiles menu like on 7.x? I preferred auto expanding options for mobile data and silent mode. Can't find it in fibers.
Hi, Great that development is ongoing - Thanks a lot!
One thing, got the same problem with the none carbon Oreo Version:
got problems with whatsapp. Video isn't running. The phone doesn't build up a connection. Chat works, but whatssap call or video not.
Skype ist working without problems ...
Any Ideas?
I installed it with a full wipe - system, cache, dalvik, data, internal storage. Used TWRP 3.2 for ROM (to mind error 7) and TWRP 3.1 for installation of MindTheGApps.
Thanks for help!
Thanks for the ROM, working great for me.
I have accidently deleted live wallpaper picker. Tried download a few different versions from the internet but nothing works. Where can I get the one this ROM is using?
FYI: I now posted my first impression and experiences in post #4. I'm planning to update it when new Weeklies arrive or when other users report some issues that are worth listing.
@Myself5: Please have an eye on the missing features and issues that I postet there, so they will hopefully get fixed in the next Weeklies.
Happy Easter to all of you!
Nice post, okij

[*]The SystemUI (Quick Settings etc.) always is shown in white theme. I know that this is Oreo's default design, but it should change to dark theme when using a dark wallpaper. Also, forcing dark theme via Dark Tricks Xposed module doesn't work.

It'd definitely be nice to have the dark theme overall. I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but I really dislike the white Oreo style. Is it possible to have it look more like Nougat, also in the 'settings' app? I, for one, always loved the color scheme that Goolge made from Lollipop to Nougat.

For things like Networks indicator: Some additional features will surely come with time, as you said.
Video recording: I think it was the Z3 thread where I explained it in detail: The commits to fix Video recording do work (kind of), but are WIP, so we're all working on getting them stable and polished, then they will be merged as fast as possible. When that happens is rough to estimate, I wouldnt expect it to take much longer than 2-3 Weeks though.
DT2W: As you said. Fixed and merged, will be included in the Next Weekly.
For the Dark Theme: Isn't that a Pixel only feature? For that to work you'd need assets for a "dark theme". On Pixel devices those are on the /vendor partition, so obviously not present on our Z3C. Correct me if I'm wrong please.
Thanks for the detailed report, will gladly keep on checking it with followup builds.
Metall Boy said:

It does. Install the Substratum app and flip the switch in CarbonFibers -> Privacy to make it work.
The Switch is disabling the Security measures Google merged in the March ASBs. By default Subs completely removes them, but we decided to go for an opt-in for those that want to use it while keeping the "security" Google intended to have with merging it for those that don't want to.
First off all, thank u for this amazing work! Rom is awesome.
1 - I saw that DT2W is fixed in the next build. It's possible add a feature present in gravitybox? When smartphone is in the pocket, sometimes screen turns on because DT2W. Gravitybox has an option to disable this when proximity sensor is covered.
2 - Someone can tell me if led notification works? Not work here...
Sorry bad English...
Sorry for asking again - anyone using this rom with working whatsapp video oder whatsapp call? When I try it the connection always hang up - no connection. Chat works.
Any idea anyone?
Thanks!

Yes, this is a great additional feature when using DT2W and one of the reasons that I use GravityBox. @Myself5: It would be great if you could implement this feature for those of us who don't use Xposed. In GravityBox it can be found under "Power tweaks -> Proximity wake up" and the additional option "Ignore for incoming call" which is also worth implementing.

I can confirm that LED notifications are working here, just tested this with missed call (using Google Dialer) and incoming email (using AquaMail).

I don't use WhatsApp, but I guess that the not working video call has to do with the not fully working video recording (see #1 in the issues list I posted here).
Hello All,
I just updated from CR5.1 to 6.1 this day, and tried to install Magisk.
But Magisk Manager failed to update, and if I flashd through TWRP (the good one, 3.1) I'm stucked in Sony logo.
Log said :
"Parsing boot image : [/data/user_de/0/com.topjohnwu.magisk/install/boot.img]
No boot image magic found!
! Unable to unpack boot image
Failed!
! Installation failed"
I have to "install" Magisk uninstaller in TWRP to bring life to my phone
EDIT : magisk 16.0, manager 5.6.4.
Some idea pls ?

Did you try removing all other modules? For me the very same thing is happening if I try to use the fbind (Folder Bind) module. You can try to remove all modules, if u use the Magisk Manager for Recovery Mode (mm).
I tried and :
"No magisk installation found."
So I installed Magisk v16, then installed this one.
I could install mm, this was the only module installed.
I uninstalled mm, rebooted without uninstalling Magisk V16, and the phone booted !
But I can't open Magisk Manager v5.6.4, stucked in the app logo...So Magisk seems to be installed, but I can't use it :/
EDIT : Well, after a recovery reboot, reinstall f magisk V16, phone boot correctly and Magisk is alive.
I don't know how this is working, but it's working.
No doubt, you helped me, many thanks

Do you need to install Gapps? Any recomendation if needed?
I installed this rom and it works fine, but the fod doesn't work with the screen off, is it like that or is there any configuration or procedure to be done?

It's not included in LineageOS sources either my code.
I tested this ROM for two days and so far it is a great experience without any major issues. Thanks!
Issues which I ran into:
- Fingerprint scanner works much worse when night backlight is turn on.
- Google camera from Play Store don't work, it just crashes.
Cool. But I cant download with android orginal browser and phone calls just playing ringtoone but nothing appeared in scrren to amswer and I should call to a number to unhide incoming call dialog!
Hello everyone.
First of all, a big BIG thank you @Englezos for this ROM, even unofficial. For the little I used it, it is extremely functional, much more than the unofficial ROM /e /OS https://community.e.foundation/t/un...-mi9t-pro-raphael-e-os-q-build/24814?u=parhit (last update in May 2021 and many bugs). No worries on my side about digital recognition, ergonomics and even the separation of personal and professional profiles (via Insular). I had a bit of trouble installing it (the adb sideload was showing 40% and made me restart but it didn't work, same thing the second time but there I just waited maybe a bit more before seeing with relief the Lineage logo).
I'm reporting some bugs I've encountered, on the personal or pro side.

1. That's the default AOSP behavior until Google changes it. You can try lower the density.
2. Because this device is not a Google Pixel.

It appears that it was a LineageOS bug which is already fixed and will be included into the next build. About the phone calling issue that you just described I can't reproduce it.

Thanks for your words and your detailed feedback. I'm glad that you have managed to installed the rom successfully.
About the Yuka app unfortunately its not available on my country and I can't install it via Google Playstore.
Brain and Uphold apps are loading and working fine.
Android browser: It appears that it was a LineageOS bug which is already fixed and will be included into the next build.
The alarm clock won't work if your device is powered off. Why would you want such thing?
Hi Englezos, thanks for the fast feedback.

Yuka only in France? ****... Maybe with a VPN? Can I help?
Brain.fm and Uphold working fine? Holy sh*t. I don't know why it doesn't work here. What tool do you use to install apps?
Browser: ok, I am using Bromite but it sounds good if it will be fixed.
Alarm: well, an alarm clock that doesn't ring is strange, isn't it? I didn't have a watch and I turn off the phone at night. So I thought the alarm would go off even if it was off (which is what was happening with Murena). Am I the only one doing this?
Installed this ROM as OTA for Los 19.1 (SebaUbuntu). Thanks for new version.
All work as need.

You should always clean flash when coming from another rom. Try another phone app also.
New release is up with November security patch and many critical fixes!! Links are on the first post!!
Does this rom passes safetynet by default? Also google photos spoofing is there or not ?

Hi there. Great
So is it necessary to reinstall everything from scratch or is a classic update possible? This is the first time I've had an update available on an unofficial ROM
