Thank you for updating this old device. I want to use Anydesk app in this rom to control it remotely. but in remote PC or phone it shows a message: "Connected! Waiting for image"

Likely will not work on DivestOS:
AnyDesk/TeamViewer accomplishes that by having “add-on” apps. Each app requests the INJECT_EVENTS permission.
However INJECT_EVENTS has a protectionLevel of signature meaning only apps signed with the releasekey of the system image can request it. If you take a look some of the add-on apps you’ll see that they are actually signed by each manufacturer.
jarsigner -verify -verbose -certs x.apk
Seems they managed to get a ton of manufacturers to sign their helper apps.
I have no intent on signing any proprietary software with my signing keys to grant such permissions.
Ok keep going on and keep DivestOS safe. thanks for quick replay
Thank you for supporting old devices like mine. Sadly this one (as well as all the other AOSP variants) I've tried fail to provide a working camera.
"Camera is not available".
I'm not sure you are familiar with zeelogs unofficial 7.1.2 build: https://zeelogkang.blogspot.com/2017/05/lineageos-141-unofficial-712-gnex-tuna.html + https://github.com/zeelog
This is the only rom so far that manages to give me a consistently working and responsive device. Everything (but GPS) just works. Sadly he's since moved on to other devices and is no longer updating it and thus we no longer get any security updates.
I've tried to build that rom myself with the plan to backport security fixes but so far I've failed even building a stable version.
Any advice/help/ideas?

Camera does work on this.
I think you might need to update your firmware maybe?
Try flashing the bootloader and radio partition again from here: https://developers.google.com/android/images#yakju
If that doesn't fix it, please upload a logcat:
adb logcat -b all -d | grep -i -e dlopen -e audit
at the minimum
So I am not entirely sure what "fixed" it. Either a combination of things or one specific thing of the following:
Update Firmware
Cleared cache and rebooted
Added location permissions
Not sure when the issue will arise again but it seems to work for now.
Hey there!! I super appreciate you building this; holy moly. That being said -- are you.... "backporting" things back to LineageOS 14.1 somethow?
The reason I ask is I want to run Android 7.x with the FDroid and Aurora app stores... but also have Magisk for things like force-enabling VoLTE on Sprint as well as messing around with the HSPAP settings on the i9250... and as far as I can tell yours is the ONLY OS that has these.
I know this is a dumb question because the whole point of your OS is for it to be secure. That being said, I'd like to run it on one device and have an insecure second. Or be able to use Magisk. Or something.
IDK I'm rambling. But you rock and are awesome.

After CyanogenMod Android v4.4.4 KitKat stopped working, my Galaxy Nexus was restored to the stock JellyBean 4.3 and put away. Then, owing to house painting, I lost track of where it was. Out of sight, followed by 2 years of a hermit existence with only 2 trips away from the house for vaccinations, I have spent most of my time fixing things including roof leaks, car, computer, air conditioners, microwave, I came across my dear old friend and searched for newer custom firmware to revive it. Most ROMs from the active period for Nexus Maguro 5 - 6 years ago were no longer available for download. I had hoped for Marshmallow and would have been happy with Lollipop. Looking at firmware that was available for download, I was surprised to find DivestOS Nougat. Not expecting success, I decided that nothing would be lost but the time to try. I had reoccurring issues with the USB adb drivers and also could not get the divested-14.1-20220214-dos-maguro-recovery.img recovery file to work as required and started again with TWRP. I tried loading Open Gapps nano and SU, but found later that it was not successful. Nevertheless I was surprised that on rebooting after one try, I had DivestOS 14.1 / 7.1.2 Nougat running. Moreover everything worked after first boot, including WiFi, Bluetooth and Camera. The system is clean and fast, but I found no browser and installed Bromite. It's like having a new phone, which is especially pleasing since this phone is the one I had always loved most because of it's lack of bloatware. Thank you so much DivestOS, you made this old man very happy.
I have an old maguro device from my Son. It runs under TWRP Recovery and Lineage 13.0.
I dont know how to setup to yours.
Had I to change the recovery with fastboot like I installed the TWRP ?
And then installing the Rom after Wiping with the new recovery?
Or what else, the informations in this forum and on the DivestOS Homepage are not clear for me.
I have an interest to try this Rom witout Google.

The steps are here: https://divestos.org/index.php?page=bootloader#fastboot
I followed these steps except 8 and 11 (not necessary here I guess). In step 12, my maguro will only display the boot animation forever, while getting warm. I waited 30 minutes and repeated, still no luck. Any pointers?

Assuming you came from another OS, did you format data? And maguro is slow, but 15 minutes is more than enough for its first boot.
Coming from an already wiped Lineage I did wipe data volume again. To be sure after your post, I flashed TWRP and did "Format Data" (which to my knowledge is only needed when removing encryption) and made sure the partition is ext4. After that I followed the instructions from step 6 on: flashing divested recovery, sideloading system and doing a factory reset. Still the same, hangs at boot logo.
Thank you for your answer, I appreciate the help. I don't really need the phone or anything, just wished to try out divestos.

Hello, fellow XDA developers & users alike!
I think it's been long enough that we've not had alternative non-Android operating systems in a usable state for the popular OnePlus 5* devices, so here is a Sailfish OS port after over 6 months in development!
I'd really appreciate it if you give feedback and report bugs so I can attempt to fix them as best I can
Features
Slick and clean Sailfish OS UI/UX
Fully gesture driven navigation of the OS (physical back buttons may or may not work depending on the app)
Ambiences: a combination of system background, primary UI colors, sounds & volume levels
Sleep mode gestures e.g. double-tap to wake, music controls, 'V' for toggling flashlight etc
Ability to control configurable ambiences with the notification slider
Independent & alternative OS not based on Android (droid base is only used for drivers & HAL in SFOS)
Run regular GNU/Linux (armhf) tools and utilities natively out of the box from Jolla, OpenRepos, other custom repositories or direct binary format
Privacy-first OS with no spyware or bloatware pre-installed
Dual-booting between LineageOS & Sailfish OS with a simple zip flash in recovery (boot-switcher, linked below)
OS version OTAs, look at the merproject wiki page (see 'OTA updates' below)
A stable hardware adaptation (port) with basically everything working, but please also read about the problems right below
And more to explore...
Problems
No Android apps (APK) will run inside Sailfish OS as is the norm with community ports; you can just dual-boot with LineageOS (see FAQ below)
There is no VoLTE / VoWiFi support in SFOS (see FAQ below)
Even though NFC works, it's implementation is quite basic in Sailfish OS currently
Produced video recordings from the camera are unusable right now due to corruption of the beginning in recordings & artifacts when moving even slightly
Flashlight misbehaves for picture taking by taking too long to activate and causing nearly pitch black images (it also turns on/off rapidly a few times when disabling)
Some audio does not get routed properly to/from (Bluetooth) headsets
Sailfish OS Developer mode (SSH via USB cable) doesn't work
Rarely waking up from sleep mode can take a long time (up to about 15 seconds)
How to install
Backup all your data from the device to a computer
Download Pie Firmware 9.0.11, TWRP 3.4.x image, the LineageOS 16.0 base ROM & a Sailfish OS release
Install device firmware version 9.0.11 (not the ROM!)
Flash TWRP 3.4.x as your recovery
Reformat /data to ext4 and check it for issues
Reboot to recovery
Wipe cache & dalvik
Flash LineageOS 16.0
Flash anything else you normally flash for Android e.g. GApps, Magisk, no dm_verity etc
Flash Sailfish OS (the zip that contains rootfs.tar.bz2) from inside CI artifacts archive
Reboot and enjoy!
You can also flash my boot-switcher zip (or switch between hybris-boot and droid-boot images created on /sdcard) afterwards for simple dual-booting of the 2 operating systems!

The port was made possible thanks to you all!
FAQ
What does "SFOS" mean?
Sailfish OS; it's simply a common abbreviation.
Can I run [insert name here] Android app in Sailfish OS?
If there is no currently maintained client or similar app in the Jolla Store or (my preference) OpenRepos, then probably not. I may look into bringing Android app support via Anbox or similar project much later on; no ETAs.
Does VoLTE or VoWiFi work in Sailfish OS?
As of SFOS 3.4.0, these are still not implemented, but should be coming later in perhaps Sailfish OS 4.
How can I skip the SFOS beginner tutorial?
Tap each corner of the screen once starting from top-left going clockwise.
I found a bug, what can I do?
See "Report bugs" section under the libhybris adaptation wiki page.

Depends on the app really. WhatsApp, Snapchat etc are an absolute no-go since they are very much against any kind of 3rd party clients and any & all work on those in OpenRepos hasn't even been started or has been discontinued.
For Telegram however there are clients like Depecher and Telegra'me (both depend on tdlibjson, install this first if you're gonna try them out!), but they also aren't perfect due to only a few people usually (or sometimes just one person) working on the projects on their free time instead of a big corporations putting in the work.
If you only need a select set of applications/games infrequently, the dual-boot setup may just work for you.
Otherwise read the FAQ.

Thanks for the clarification.
There has been a long-standing issue with NFC always getting re-enabled after a reboot in SFOS. Obviously this is not what you'd want as it causes unnecessary battery drain even when NFC is entirely unused.
This was happening due to a directory ownership issue and should be fixed in the next Sailfish OS release officially.
For now though I fixed this manually on the new uploaded Sailfish OS image (zip), BUT if you already have the OS installed (flashed build <=20200117), you can just reinstall nfcd from a terminal & toggle the option once in Settings to fix the same issue:
Code:
devel-su zypper in --force nfcd
I waited for any linux for op5 so long. Thank you! Howewer i expected something more open source like postmarket os

"Its doesnt work!" is really vague and I literally cannot help you if you don't tell me more about the issue you're having.
What doesn't work? Does it error with some message or code, then what? Did you follow each 11 steps under "How to install"? Did you flash ANY Android kernels or zips AFTER step 10?
I just reflashed my device from Pie following the instructions and got thru the initial Sailfish OS setup.
I also tested flashing boot-switcher and got through the Android setup, THOUGH seemingly without also flashing no_verity before Sailfish (maybe not needed, but I always flash this normally anyway) and wiping caches again I didn't get past LineageOS logo for the first time (may have to add this under the thread).
I've noticed the LineageOS 15.1 base ROM has an issue with the System process being unresponsive for the first minute after a boot every single time, may have to investigate that as Sailfish OS doesn't even touch /system or /vendor (and boot image is just a backup taken before hybris-boot gets flashed)...
It says Error 10. I did all the steps according to the instructions. up to the point where lineage os is installed everything works but after that nothing more!

Error 10 during Sailfish OS flashing points to the installer not being able to extract the SFOS rootfs => said line in install script
Could you upload your /tmp/recovery.log from the device AFTER trying to install Sailfish OS using the steps to say pastebin and link it here (or send a PM)? I feel like the Sailfish archive must be corrupted or something else is wrong on your end.
Do you have telegram
Does it have to be lineage for bootswitcher to work? Can I use pixel experience?

If it is broken it should at least show a boot animation.
Chance of brick by flashing should be low.
You should be able to recover via recovery or fastboot.
Volume up + Power to get into fastboot.
Volume down + Power to get into recovery.

Bootloader locking is *untested*, you must not lock bootloader unless you verify the system to boot first.
Locking bootloader without thoroughly testing can result in brick.
You will need to unlock, and either flash Lineage or Stock back: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/ether/install

Glad to hear! Thank you for testing!
Really exited to try Divestos but having the same problem with 20210807 after divest logo just a black screen. Tired to download 20210530 but https://divestos.org/mirror.php?base=LineageOS&f=ether/divested-18.1-20210530-dos-ether.zip does not work. Where can you find previous builds?
Also could you please let us know what the problem is and how to fix it moving forward? I've tried the steps from your FAQ to kill the lineage setup wizard but that doesn't work, I've even uninstalled the org.lineageos.setupwizard package, still doesn't work.

I do not store previous builds.
It seems the workaround I added was not enough, and sad to hear it took so long for someone to report it broken.
I will ensure it is fixed next build cycle.
It is related to the removal of the proprietary display color tuning blobs:

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 12.0, 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 out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Hey, I downloaded and installed. Everything so far is working perfectly! Thanks so much.
Y'all add the lockscreen album art like in pixel dust rom
Can we use bank apps and office apps ? How to install magisk after flashing this rom? Cab we follow voenabler to enable volte ?
Big thanks first to the developer..Keen to try out this rom, I see the rom zip can be installed like a normal zip and it will repartition the phone, my query is does the repartition allow for downgrade to Android 11 just in case? Or do we need to change the partitions again?

Maybe one question at a time next time?
You can install magisk same as on any ROM - generally this is the most common way :
Installation
The Magic Mask for Android
topjohnwu.github.io
Assuming you pass safetynet after magisk install then depending on banking app you should be able to use it (some banks require more steps to avoid root detection, and a few cannot be beaten. I cant say for sure even knowing your bank, because it all depends on your setup....anything root, or beyond is a try and see proposition - no point asking others as they dont have your device or perhaps use the apps you do. If you want certainty, youre in the wrong place, and should stick to stock....any change in ROM or magisk or on Google back end could end in failure one month to the next.
If you have queries regarding magisk, how to install or how to pass safetynet or try and avodi root detection by apps (including bank), then your questions are *usually* best served asked and answered in the magisk support thread:
Magisk General Support / Discussion
This is the place for general support and discussion regarding "Public Releases", which includes both stable and beta releases. All information, including troubleshoot guides and notes, are in the Announcement Thread
forum.xda-developers.com
In the main magisk topics list, you may find articles relating to specific bank apps:
Magisk
Magisk - The Universal Systemless Interface, to create an altered mask of the system without changing the system itself.
forum.xda-developers.com
Can you try voenabler?...sure you can try any magisk module, if it doesnt work, uninstall it, thats the beauty of it, its reversible....
as always your best bet for any help is to use the search box at top right of screen before posting a new question, its free and it avoids asking the same questions over and over...all the above could have been found via searching...

Noted.Thanks for the detailed explanation.
Thanks for the rom
This seems to install fine but LTE data is laggy at times, very different. Will work fine one minute, then no internet the next 80% signal.
The touch sensor seems a bit out of whack at times as well, but mostly works.
The device is not play store certified. Not able to register android ID after 2 attempts.
On the wiki it states to adb sideload the zip but in your post it says to use twrp. I used twrp but not the sideload function, would that cause my device to not certify?
Perhaps the only glitch I ran into as of right now was because I tried using Flame GApps for Android 12 instead of MindTheGApps. The Google Assistant add-on package for that "brand" of GApps wouldn't allow voice match to function, claiming it was unavailable for the device. I'd love to install the Flame GApps full package over the MindTheGApps package, but I know it won't work.
Naturally, as this is an early build the advanced restart menu and the ability to remove the Android 12 pill in gesture navigation is missing, but the former is easily worked around using the app "Simple Reboot" and the latter I can live with can be removed using a Magisk module.

hi,
i have a sony xperia xz premium (g8141) still running stock firmware and android 9, battery and phone in good shape, so why get a new one... Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but ... i'll give it a try ;-)
1) build is unofficial, but is it considered stable? e.g. crashes, freezes or the like?
2) is signature spoofing enabled? i want to avoid google apps and install microg instead.

hi!
1. yes it is stable like any other a12L roms beacuse it uses the same device, kernel, and vendor tree. even though it's unofficial.
2. yes arrowos have signature spoofing enabled. so it supports microg.
3. i personally use the latest twrp from the official website. https://dl.twrp.me/maple/twrp-3.6.1_9-0-maple.img.html

what gapps are you using? can you please provide a logcat?
hey,
wow, cool, what a fast answer thx!
ok, so it's stable (based on whatawurst iirc, clicked a while through the many pages), signature spoofing is enabled which allows microg (will be enough for me, just a couple of apps via aurora store, nothing fancy, and google apps stuff finally gone). sounds great!
last question: how often will there will be updates/releases? every x weeks/months? and if A12L is installed: OTA updates or flash always necessary? Just curious.
well, i think i'll give it a try, maybe easter weekend. flashed only one rom (/e/OS on a samsung s5) before, but, hey, what could possibly go wrong?
is there a mirror link? I can not visit google drive in my region. Thanks guys.

if you have flashed a12 before, you need to put the files in microsd/usb otg/temp directory or install through adb sideload because the twrp can't decrypt data for now (in a12 roms). but if you're on stock rom or any stock based rom that isn't a12, then you can use the internal storage in twrp.
Cool, thank you. Yes, still stock rom. So only copy it to the internal storage and flash. Sounds easy
edit: ok, i think i can remember why - with one of the android9-followers encryption was introduced...
ok, couldn't wait and did the install. some problems during the installation, will report maybe later, but the boot into the system then succeeded. did some settings (clock, timezone etc.); the problem now: the system boot seems to hang.
i tried to transfer some files (contacts and apk for f-droid) but the copy somehow got stuck. I then tried a reboot, but after sony logo and the android robot head i see the moving/glowing arrow symbol. And that's it. boot process doesn't proceed. Well... what could be wrong?
LOL... i think i know what went wrong: for login i wanted to have a PIN, and the system offered me to secure the system boot with that PIN as well. I think the system got stuck when the PIN has to be entered - but i never get offered to enter the PIN. Great

thx bro, you did a great thing.
strange, still having problems with my SIM card. System boots, asks for SIM PIN, but then says: "Service not available". German provider congstar (telekom daughter). By default no APN is elected (available: lebara internet and telekom internet); i added the congstar apn manually -> no difference, doesn't work.
i tried a different phone, a samsung galaxy s5, with lineageOS 18.1 - no problems there. Any related issues known? someone else has this problem?
created a logcat.txt via 'adb logcat -d > logcat.txt', is attached here. some congstar related messages, not sure if they help.
i can see a couple of error messages, probably not related, not sure if interesting ;-)
strange, now it works, phone calls work... the small radio cell icon shows 3-4 bars, but with an ! - very strange... i don't trust it at the moment, will check it regularly the next days.
By entering this zone you agree to the followings:
- Your 'expired' warranty is now void
- I'm not responsible for your girlfriend/boyfriend getting mad at you because the call didn't came through
- Also not responsible for missed alarms due to alarm not firing
- Or loosing your job due to late notifications
You're a great guy. Happy discovering and have a nice day!

LineageOS 20 for Mi Note 2
Beware, you are about to enter a dangerous zone!

After much tinkering and countless of brain explosions, I have determined that my lineage-20 builds for Mi Note 2 is suitable to be released for the public.
Please note that the ROM bears the "[UNOFFICIAL]" tag for a reason - you might face instability or performance issues.
You are not recommended to use this ROM for daily usage, just to be safe. I am not an experienced developer, hence my changes could be wrong or incomplete,
rendering issues to occur on the device.
Full credits to bgcncm, luk1337, haggertk, joe2k01, and all other xiaomi/msm8996 developers.
This ROM is based on official xiaomi/msm8996 sources by LineageOS, with my changes on top to get lineage-20 working.
Without their work on xiaomi/msm8996's Linux 4.4 kernel, this wouldn't be possible at all. Please consider donating to them or the LineageOS foundation.
Additional, huge credits to ChronoMonochrome and @rINanDO for their huge assistance in my early days of Android development.
Please refer to my github repositories for more information on my commits and changes made on top of official LineageOS repositories.
Things to take note:
- Not all features are fully tested as I do not have the required equipment etc, such as testing Bluetooth audio, Dual SIM network, or Netflix.
- Builds will be SELinux permissive for the time being.
- Builds are using EAS (Energy Aware Scheduling) configuration, rather than the traditional HMP configuration. No PowerHAL is included for the time being.
What's not working:
- SELinux (permissive)
- PowerHAL (excluded for EAS switch)
- Camera HAL log spam
- other untested features (ie. DRM, Bluetooth audio)
- some other non-fatal, kernel side errors and outdated configurations
- you tell me.
What's working:
- everything else.
Installation steps:
1. Update system to latest stock.
2. Unlock bootloader and perform factory reset.
3. Utilize fastboot to flash and boot recovery.img from my Download link below.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery.img
You can also boot official TWRP first to make persist and EFS backups. (Highly recommended. )
4. Wipe everything, and sideload ROM zip using adb.
adb sideload lineage-20.0-20230420-UNOFFICIAL-scorpio.zip
5. Flash GAPPS if wanted. Reboot and have a sip of coffee.

ROM Information
Variant: LineageOS 20 (Android 13) - UNOFFICIAL
Target: scorpio (Xiaomi Mi Note 2)
Maintainer: lee.wp14 (github.com/leewp14)
Source: https://github.com/hikuii
Latest Release: 20230424
Release Status: Not stable, not unstable, just right.
Release Notes:
- initial release
FAQs:
Spoiler: FAQs
1. What is "Not stable, not unstable, just right"?
A. Because I dare not declaring my builds stable when it is clearly based on expert works (looking timidly at LineageOS maintainers..) and they haven't release lineage-20 for gemini and natrium.
Afterall, there's still huge pile of stuffs to work on before I can slap the word 'stable' to my builds, which I can be most certain it won't happen.
2. Safetynet? Root?
A. Passing SafetyNet requires one additional measure for Android 9 and above: chmod 0640 /sys/fs/selinux/enforcing. I still haven't implement the changes in device tree. Otherwise, without Magisk installed, everything is well-handled and apps should work.
3. Some apps still detect root. Why?
A. This is because some apps are detecting system props, particularly looking for userdebug/test-keys and ro.debuggable=1 props. You could modify build.prop to workaround this, but bear in mind that in Android 13, there are multiple build.prop scattered across /system, /odm, /vendor, /system_dlkm, /system_ext...
4. ETA?
5. Ok... but when you going to update?
A. No definitive answer. I'm doing this in my free time and on a voluntarily basis. New builds will only be released after it passes my quality inspection, and that it actually includes major changes. Maybe there won't be any update at all if all is well.

edit 1: How to get rid of decrypt data? im trying to make some backups using twrp.
edit 2: besides the sad decrypt data issue, the instalation process seems to restore the default partition table. It deleted my custom 4gb+ system partition and restored to stock 2,975mb (only a problem to postmarketos/plasma users).

oh. Don't think that's possible. A new recompilation of TWRP is required, or if someone did it.
Now new android requires FBE encryption, not even FDE, so old TWRP will not able to decrypt it.
If backup is really important, suggest you to use dd first, or adb pull your files. I don't know how to compile TWRP, so can't build one for now.

I have checked on the installaton steps of postmarket os for scorpio, and I'm stunned. If an image file could "repartition", then no doubt flashing LineageOS will also able to "repartition" it back since android zip builds use image patching too. We actually have to specify the size of partitions in device tree configurations.
I never came across this method of "repartitioning" and couldn't find further information on Google. Do share with me if you know any references about this.
