Frequent questions
I do not use GAPPS! How can I remove?
R: Unfortunately not. Sorry.
What are the bugs?
R: See Known issues in OP.
How do I get root?
R: Download SuperSU Flashable and install via TWRP. After this, update the application by the Google Play
I found a bug!
Make a logcat and put it in pastebin/hastebin. I'll look when I can
You will need a computer, adb installed, usb debugging enabled on the smartphone and a usb cable.
Here's how to do it here.
1. Open Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Linux/macOS).
2. Type:
Code:
adb logcat -d > logcat-dd-mm-yyyy.txt
This will save the log to logcat-dd-mm-yyyy.txt.
No nonsense questions, please!
Avoid meaningless discussions and help you and the user have useful information on the thread :good:
Dan, when I connect the phone to the PC, I can not access the files because there is no information to authorize the procedure in the notification! Please take a look when you can.
Calm down, Padawan! This is not a bug but google stuff. They have placed the authorization option on development tools. Everyone is trying to understand why this
Do this when you want to have access to them:
Go to System -> developer option -> USB and activate MTP manually.
What will be the frequency of compilations?
Monthly or every two months . I plan to spend $12 per month for the projects.
Praying for the low dollar quote on the Google Cloud Engine :laugh::fingers-crossed::good:

Sure will help as normally pixel ROMs come with gapps pre packaged it needs bigger system partition.
Also i have seen from Moto G forum, folks have seen better results with Android Go config.
Worth a try for our old device

-So far for me:
-Install from jb 4.2.1 after repit get find.
- Phone not recognized by connecting PC câble to windows 7
- Cannot open files from ES explorer apps. Message "SD card formated as internal memory, reboot your phone"
- My files apps works to go to external SD but until now internal SD no chance, maybe a repit problem, going to repit and reinstall to see.
- Camera works great but sending photos by bluetoth or gmail didn't work.
- Don't know anything about call transmition, cose' still have issue regarding, after reboot, ask me for network unlock.
Since i bought it 7 years ago, free from any mobiile operator, i never had this problem before and until now it got thousands "ROM flash".
Maybe because i changed the sim card or imei issue? so long guys

I am using ROM for 8 days and have not seen any related issues. I'll consider some things.
Thanks for the feedback!

Regarding the unlock network code message, it happens since i tried to install lineage-15.1-20180731-UNOFFICIAL-i9100 i guess, not from your ROM.
But for other bugs i still have issue, even after new reinstall, from repit. Maybe i miss something after the repit process.
I don't remember, should we reconfigure the format of cache, system, etc ?
