Rules

Do not ask for an ETA

Don't ask for the estimate time of arrival of builds for a device. Builds will come when ready. Don't ask about future plans, updates, developments, or news. We don't have crystal balls, schedules, or grand strategies that dictate when or if things will happen.

Do not ask whether your device will be supported

Whether a device will supported depends on whether a maintainer or a contributor has the device and intends to bring it up. Don't ask if builds for another device will work on your unsupported device. Don't ask where builds for a previously supported device are. Don't state that you're waiting for builds for an unsupported device. Don't ask if a supported device will be supported on a newer version. Don't ask for support on un-supported devices.

Do not beg for VoLTE

Not all devices with LTE are VoLTE-capable.

Do not post bug reports

We have a separate bug tracker. Please see the instructions on the wiki regarding how to report bugs correctly.

Don't ask for help with non-Lineage ROMs

This community is for LineageOS. If you have a problem with a non-LineageOS ROM, ask elsewhere. This also extends to asking for ROM suggestions.

Do not ask for features to be added

We are not accepting feature requests in this subreddit, on GitLab, or anywhere else at this time. If you have implemented a new feature we accept patches through Gerrit at http://review.lineageos.org

Don't ask about unsupported mods

Magisk modifies the boot image
MicroG requires signature spoofing
Substratum modifies frameworks
SuperSU is not a supported root access manager
Xposed breaks the Android APIs

We can't help with these things because we don't control them and we can't support devices with them installed because they modify the OS at a deep level and they may open security holes.

Don't link to or discuss unofficial builds or sites

Please don't post links to unofficial builds or unofficial news sources. If it's not lineageos.org -- it's not official.

Can I get the last rom for an unsupported device? (self.lineage_os)

I own a Nexus 5X for testing purposes. I like to try out different roms and alternatives to Google's Android, so I had installed Lineage OS and other ROMs, and some months ago, flashed with stock Android.

But now, I lost these files to reinstall Lineage OS, and since the Nexus 5X is an unsupported device, there's no files on the website. Is there an alternative to get "cached files" from lineageos.org?

There's an unofficial archive of old official builds at https://lineage-archive.timschumi.net It's hosted and maintained by a LineageOS team member.

Xda?

[–] ravnswood 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

XDA is the last option for me, because there are unofficial roms.

[–] Reliant1087 3 points 1 year ago

There are official roms there too. I remember a time when CyanogenMod used to be released on XDA.
