Lineageos Update shows already installed version. Is this normal? - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Hello
I have already the latest Lineageos version. In the update list the installed version is still listed and I can still press the update/install button. Is this normal?
Please have a look at my Screenshot
Thx

Yes, this is normal. The LineageOS Team is working on fixing that.

It's actually reflecting the current version for some reason.
It happened to me too. I always set it to Manual checks for updates too because I prefer to download them from the LineageOS site and flash them in TWRP.
I'm not a big fan of the built in download and updates with some of the issues that they've had with it.
Don't worry about the identical releases it shows you.

changelogs LineageOS 14.1

Changelogs found, look at the post below...
I found an app that will show what has been changed within lineageOS, you can download it easily in the play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vasudevrb.cmchangelog
You can use https://www.cmxlog.com
It was restarted, so no device are shown for now, but you can see the whole changes.

Yes i know, i have had contact with the developer that made the app I referred to in the post above, and he told me that he got his sources from the site you referred to. I used his app already when it was cyanogen. So when cm stopped, the app didn't get updated anymore, but after I asked him if he would rebrand it to LineageOS and he confirmed that he would, I got an update yesterday for the app. For now its only logs for the complete ROM, not yet specific for every device. But it will be when the official ROMs start to get released.
Thanks for responding.

Unable to download LineageOS nightly update

Hey
I'm currently running LineageOS 14.1 (Nightly - Build date: Jan 25) in my OnePlus3.
The LineageOS updates gives me the option to download the Jan 31 nightly build but the download always stops mid way with the error "Unable to download update".
I tried it many times, my internet connection is stable and quite fast and I'm certainly not running out of space on my device.
Is there anything I can do about this?
Even I am getting the same error have u got any solution till now ?

You can always use the Lineage Downloader app (which is a pretty good app) on the Play Store here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.paolinoalessandro.cmromdownloader&hl=en
Or just download the oneplus3 ROM's manually from the Lineage website here:
https://download.lineageos.org/oneplus3
There's more than one way to get the LineageOS downloads...

That happened to me as well on my Honor 5x. Try having the screen on while it's downloading. Seems like when the screen turns off, the download gets aborted at some point. Worse case scenario, you can download the zip thru Lineage website and flash with TWRP.

Sorry buddy...no soutions yet. Maybe they'll solve the bug on later builds. I manually downloaded it and flashed it, only way it seems.

Ya, I was just hoping that directly updating it through the phone's update portal would be easy and on-the-go solution. I did manually downloaded it and flashed it but nightly updates keep wiping my data so I kind of wanted to skip that part.
Thanks anyways guys
I seem to be having the same problem. Have you guys found out how to resolve this issue? or what is the issue?

The Root Switches in Developers Options

Sony Z5 6653 with latest Lineage OS with modified v3
Those switches bug me in that developer section . I know I have root I've done root activities I've edited root text files that you can't do inlesss you have root. I've tweaked this and that so I know I have root and at the system level. but these switches are in the off position - are they just kind of decorations?, Or I remember a long time ago there was this addon that we could put on and then that would open up both apps and and and just at least make the switches look on Should I put that on there or what should I do?

Those options are for permitting that option to be performed within the device. It doesn't actually perform the action.
Allot of individuals get confused with the "permitting of" and the actual "Action of" it being performed.
The handful of devices that does have that and similar verbiage that was used within the Developer Options has always been a confusing one and really should have used a better way for clarifying it better.

Battery drain on new nightly Nexus 6

Hi everyone. Just jumped into the world of rooting and custom ROMs and stuff and was going great for a while. I installed the 4/28 Lineage OS on my nexus 6 and was loving it. Phone was much faster and battery life improved by at least 20%. However after trying to OTA update to the new 5/5 build I ran into a lot of issues. Finally got the new build on my phone but now my battery life is abysmal. Like 20% lost in less than an hour. Here is everything I have done to date. If anyone can see what I did wrong and maybe a potential fix I would greatly appreciate it.
Rooted, installed TWRP 3.0.2-0, flashed Lineage 4/28 along with Micro Gapps
Attempted to auto update. After many failures (kept failing to install manually from the directory in TWRP) I restored my nougat 7.1.1 backup, then installed the new build along with Gapps again. Phone works now but as stated horrendous battery life
Is it because I installed Gapps twice possibly? I fear I incorrectly assumed that restoring my phone would remove Gapps as well so now maybe Gapps is running twice? I am new to this so I am honestly not sure. Again, any help is appreciated. Thanks! Hope everyone else is having a better experience

Did you try asking this on the Official LineageOS thread for the Nexus 6?
[ROM][OFFICIAL] LineageOS 14.1 for Nexus 6 (shamu) by razorloves
You should be able to get a better answer from those who has the same device and ROM.
I wish you the best of luck!

SM-T805W Region RWC (CANADA/ROGERS) Firmware - Android 6.0.1 Official Update Found?

I was searching official sources and came across an official Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow update for my SM-T805W RWC Rogers tablet, and so I was wondering if anyone in Canada who is currently unrooted with official stock recovery has received an update via "Settings -> General -> About Device -> Software Update" for it yet?
Thx
Anyone?

Tried the update from the about device , software updates, Update now and it says the latest updates have been installed. It's at 5.0.2. I'm trying to update to the MM so I can then go to LineageOS 14.1
Cheers.
Thanks Manny are u rooted or have a non-stock recovery installed? If so, you won't see any updates via Settings.
