Add the addonsu to root with Magisk (and remove addonsu) https://download.lineageos.org/extras
or
Just root within twrp 3.2.17 (@NFound) - tested by @DarkQuark

---

@WesTD why the need to use pico gapps? Can't you choose aroma and not install Google Camera or use gapps config to disable it being installed.
@raystef66 you need to install the addonsu, remove it and then install magisk? Why can't you just install magisk?

You can install magisk when on 3217 as i heard without addonsu but this one runs 3216.
Just use the addonsu and then flash 16.4 and you'll be good to go.
EDIT : maybe 3.2.1.6 can root too without the addonsu but i never tested that. But like said no harm done to use the addonsu

I'll have to try when I install it and report back here.

Very strange when mini doesn't include camera. The only apps in mini that have anything to do with the camera are face detect and photos.

Is HDR+ and Portrait Mode only working on the front camera?

---

Any news about the stock camera?
There have been flashable zips in the path if I'm not mistaken, none for oreo after all I know, right?

Both rear and front

Just to update here with my findings.
1. Magisk 16.4 works fine installing straight, no reason to install addonsu.
2. Installed aroma gapps from open gapps and it works fine apart from bizarre occasional "Google has stopped " messages.
3. I can't comment on the Google camera shared here but the latest recommend pixel mod camera from here: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/#apk285 works relatively well, crashed on me once trying slow motion but everything else seems to work. I did not come across the problem mentioned here where certain gapps break gcam.
This is all fresh install, unencrypted, A2017U using universal bootstack and U modem and Nfound TWRP .6.

---

Is there any reason you chose that exact version of Gcam @WesTD ?
I have been using the latest version arnovas mod and today it crashed quite often taking photos. It also didn't work well recording UHD video and lagged during one of my recordings.

You should add this magisk mod to fix issues with DayDream:

Just a general, unimportant question. What's the deal with LOS-based ROMs and cLock? cLock displays weather with the aid of weather providers since Marshmallow I think.
On Oreo none of them seem to work. They install normally but the systems don't see them as providers. Not even Chronus which also acts as a provider.
Just wondering (out loud) why cLock is still included if it's not fully functional anymore.

Whenever I install magisk the device can't boot in the OS. It just boots in fastboot mode every time and the only way to get it back is re-install the OS from recovery mode (TWRP). So far I have tested with version 16.0 and 16.4, and got the same results on both.
Any idea why this is happening?

Yes, it's normal. It was mentionened in other threasds already, that this happens. 16.7 should work though, only hide does not work properly.

The "swap back and recent" doesn't seem to be working. I'm running the 09/25 build of Lineage 15.1. After a flash and reboot, the buttons work exactly as before.
I tried finding the source of that file, but the user you linked doesn't seem to have any posts here. Could you link the source thread?

I've been pulling my hair out for the last few days trying to get the back button on the right side. Unfortunately, this one didn't work for me either. Am I doing something wrong? I reboot into TWRP 3.2.1-8, go to mount, select vendor, go to install, select file, voila. Everything says it installs, no errors, etc, and then there's no change when I boot into system again.

It should work under /verdor
Or do it manualy in /vendor/usr/keylayout/synaptics_dsx.kl or search that file
Code:
key 158 APP_SWITCH
key 102 HOME
key 187 BACK
key 143 WAKEUP
I used it in LOS16 and all other Pie roms and working ok. Never tried it on LOS15
