Background:
We've been offered LOS 16 GSIs in the past (here, and here), but they haven't been updated in quite a while, so as a LineageOS lover, I decided to step up and do it myself. Turns out it wasn't so easy - there were a number of hurdles that prevented it from building properly, booting or being feature-complete. But here I am, having figured out most if not all what's needed, and verified booting on an arm64 ab device I own, I'm ready to share my findings as well as some builds with you.
Disclaimer:
This is still mostly a LineageOS team / PHH @phhusson effort, credits to them and all associated for making all this possible.
No instructions will be offered. If you're here in this forum, you should know what you're doing.
No guarantees that everything would work. This is a GSI, bugs are bound to happen.
Do not report hardware-related bugs in this thread. I am selfish and only care about getting it running on my device with whatever features I need working. Plus I'm not PHH and can't solve any either.
Download:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/andyyan-gsi/files/
Compressed as .xz archives - extract first.
Vanilla except for these changes:
Modifications needed to make it build/boot/feature-complete, see below
Disabled "vendor mismatch" warning on boot
Re-enabled lockscreen shortcuts
Default stretch-to-fullscreen (force apps to render in 18:9)
Extra tip:
If you have a relatively low-end device and experience UI stutters, try this simple build.prop trick (technically a debug property, so use at your own risk). Thanks @SnapTheRipper for bringing it up!
Modifications needed (builders-only):
Now for the juicy part. On top of PHH's already fantastic build script, you'll need these:
device/phh/treble:
Revert Update lineage.mk for LineageOS 16.0 - add back LOS sepolicy, so that LOS-specific features like Profiles, LiveDisplay, Styles, Trust would work
Revert exfat fsck/mkfs selinux label - fix a conflict in doing so
build/make:
Revert Enable dyanmic image size for GSI - fix building
external/tinycompress:
Revert tinycompress: Use generated kernel headers - remove dependency on generated kernel headers
frameworks/base:
Revert Initial support for in-display fingerprint sensors - use PHH's implementation
vendor/lineage:
Apply build/soong/Android.bp: Disable generated_kernel_* - disable generating kernel headers, since GSIs don't have a kernel
Revert lineage: Enforce privapp-permissions whitelist, or change it to log
vendor/qcom/opensource/cryptfs_hw:
Revert cryptfs_hw: Use generated kernel headers - remove dependency on generated kernel headers
Apply [TEMP]: Header hack to compile for 8974 - fix a missing header
And that's it. Doesn't look like much, but most are pretty hacky solutions, and I don't expect them to be merged anywhere. As I said, I'm only interested in getting it running, I don't care what it takes.
Stuff on GitHub (builders-only):
I've also collected necessary scripts/patches and uploaded them: treble_build_los, treble_patches (PHH's treble_patches adjusted for LOS). Not the cleanest code, but should help if you still need more clues.

Thanks for reading - I hope this could be of use to fellow LineageOS lovers / home builders.

Is there any chance for A-only 64 build?

Done, check OP. I can't spare an A-only device to test it though, try at your own risk.

Thank you very much!!! Will test and give feedback....ist it build on latest Phhs V111?

I thought it's the avN one. (Didn't boot on my phone.)

As of now I've received 1 report of A-only booting up alright. Although I don't take hardware-related bug reports, it's advised to post whether it boots on your device so as to let other users know.

avN, bvN - not clear enough?

Thanks again for A-only build...tested and works great on MiMax3 with stock PIE vendor!!!
Only thing not working is equalizer for audio, opens a empty screen but no FC or error message...but ringtone, music etc. working.

Just tested this on a Nokia 7 Plus (B2N) with the bvN images. Everything seems to work just fine, except for VoLTE/VoWiFi (which I don't care that much about anyways...).
Voice calls, Camera, MusicFX, Fingerprint, Bluetooth, LTE, all work as expected. Will come back after some usage with more info about battery life and such.
@AndyYan Awesome stuff, Andy! Thank you for this guide--will try to build it myself soon enough after I run your build for a few days to test.
By the way, do you think this will get OTA updates from LineageOS? The updater seems to work as expected, but haven't seen any new options there yet.
Thanks again!

Nope, LOS team even stated explicitly they won't be making any official GSIs.

Oh, that is very unfortunate. It is running really smooth as a GSI
So that means that each security patch comes out, I will need to start from scratch and reflash the image? That would make it a bit a pain each month
Anyways, thanks for the quick reply!

On the Galaxy S9: I dirty flashed it over vanilla phh 111 to see if it boots. It did with the usual force close of course.
Then I wiped and reflashed. But stuck at the boot animation. The splash screen was there for a half century too... my guess is the ramdisk stoff from the kernel. there are some other Kernel version I will try those later.

Just flash the image on top (along with whatever mods you're using), no wipe needed. It works like flashing ROMs on a regular A-only device.

Do u have TWRP recovery?

Finally there's a LOS 16 GSI! I have been looking to try to compile my own with phh build script.
Sorry which one should I use _avN or _bvN if I have an A Only Arm64 (Wayne).
I tried to flash the _avN and got stuck at the Mi logo.
Thank you very much to do the work.
Sent from my Mi MIX 2 using XDA Labs

Boots on Razer phone 1 but no wifi or data. Everything else seems to work. Thank you for the rom (no wifi or data razer phone problem).

Welcome to COSP, your new future Android Operating System.
Our goal is to have an Pixel-like android ROM that isn't spying on you and uses as few system space as possible. Also, we provide the option to go completely without GApps using MicroG support.
Why us?
We are focusing on stability and performance, having an debloated ROM is essential for that. Also, we want Users to decide what kind of Store they want to use, either F-Droid or the Play Store.
Also, we take User requests serious. To suggest something, contact us on telegram.
Features:
1) All systemUI tuning elements
2) An handy Network indicator
3) Charging Information
4) Lawnchair and Quickstep as default
5) Quick Settings mods
6) Signature spoofing
OTA Updating for official devices enables Users to get the newest version with ease.
DOWNLOADS:
https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1Wau8S9PHyT5NvxgKx6i9KpXON4Xjwqyn&export=download
BUGS:
1. All the bugs that are common in Pie roms.
2. You tell me.

Can't tell ETA rn as I'm the only one working on this for cedric and I've got school and ****. But yeah might take a bit longer as the keyhandler service for MotoActions is missing and I'll have to add it.

The color accent picker is something I'm planning to add soon. And about the clock try the systemUI tuner
for dark mode, do try the night mode from developer options

Thanks man! Moto actions are something not worth trying as they're added but won't show up due to the missing keyhandler. I'll try to fix it asap though.

I just tried your rom and I love it! It's SUPER clean and the added features are great. Although I'm not happy with the AOSP gestures (OnePlus gestures) because this device has a front fingerprint so it just no make sense to me but I'm getting used to it and I think I'm staying here. Thanks a lot.

Hi together,

Did you make a twrp backup? If so, you can restore the EFS partition. You should then have a working signal/sim card.

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of android, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock android for your device.
All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. If you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit our Wiki for more details.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. If you use twrp it will ask if you want to install the twrp app. Make sure you tap "DO NOT INSTALL".
2. If you care about your stuff, make a backup in TWRP first, just in case. Transfer it to a pc, along with all your stuff in internal storage.
3. The newest vendor, radio, & bootloader img's are included in the rom zip, so no need to worry about flashing those manually.
4. Lineage comes with adb root that you can enable in developer options, but if you want root for apps, flash magisk in recovery (after renaming magisk.apk to magisk.zip). Just don't flash it during initial lineage install, as it's known to cause bootloop if you do.
Downloads:
marlin rom: https://download.lineageos.org/marlin
sailfish rom: https://download.lineageos.org/sailfish
gapps: (gapps are optional) link WARNING: Only use nano or pico because the system partition is too small on our device.
google fi gapps addon: if your carrier is Google Fi, flash this zip right after flashing the gapps zip. https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682871038
Instructions:
FOR INITIAL INSTALL

An easy fix, for anyone with the gmail issue, you just have to go to settings->apps->gmail->permissions, and allow permissions to contacts and calendar.
EDIT: I'll try to figure out the issue of why gmail is not being granting permissions automatically, like it should.
But in the meantime, i'll just include gmail in my builds. That way it has that right permissions and just works like it should. If you don't want the app, you can just go to settings and disable it.
EDIT#2: New builds are available in first post. One notable feature that was added is, network traffic monitor in statusbar. :good:
Note: I don't have a sailfish so that build is untested, but it should work fine. Please someone give it a try and let us know if it's ok. Confirmed, it's working good on sailfish too.

ikr, it was read only on the stock rom, immediately went back to Los16 lol

so, it seems as if there are no real game-breaking issues out of the gate?? I'm looking forward to trying this later but was holding off for some more feedback, so far it seems to be pretty positive... one (stupid) question... After flashing this can you easily just flash back to a PIE rom if need be, or once you go Android 10 you can't go back?

yes you can

yep, i did it the other day. went from lineage 17 to 16, with just a data wipe. no issues.

So device personalization services app kept crashing so I uninstalled it
also trying to enable black theme in settings makes settings app crash
Also had the Gmail permission bug thanks for posting the fix ?
Also why was twrp overwritten by stock Google recovery ?
I didn't see a warning about that anywhere in op
Note I did a clean install wiped all partitions but internal storage in twrp 3.3.0.0 before flashing rom and then magisk zip

[DISCONTINUED][GSI][11] LineageOS 18.x GSI (all archs)

Reserved
Couple of things to note:
I now have a rather taxing day job, and can't devote nearly as much time/effort into this as I did as a student.
As always, you are strongly advised to try PHH's AOSP first and identify/report issues there, before moving onto other GSIs that are based on his work. Please report bugs here only if it's specific to this GSI.
Thanks to patches from @eremitein , Magisk compatibility is partially restored. For devices that still don't play well with it (e.g. kernel restrictions implemented by OEM), use PHH-SU instead. Install the app and you'll get root for apps.
A-only and VNDKLite targets are now generated from AB images instead of built from source, see sas-creator. Kinda hacky and might be buggy. Move on to an AB device if you can.
To mount /system RW on AB devices, refer to this.
exfat SD cards still don't seem to work. Any help related to this would be appreciated.

Initial builds are based on PHH v300.j and December security patches.
Building-related bits have been published, but only for AB targets - I'm not sure if I want to integrate sas-creator yet.

Dear AndyYan. Thank you very much for all your work on these Roms. Do you think that I can flash the latest BitGapps R19 which was available a few weeks ago on the BitGapps website ?

Great job dude! I ammire you

Relesse 18 thank You my friend

Arm64 avS can't flash the beta versions of GApps and NikGApps, otherwise, constantly restart to TWRP.
Test again, it should be GApps problem, SD821 vndk27 Aonly everything is fine. Thank you.

The ROM bootlooped on Moto E6, though this is a very new ROM so I think I'll revert back to your LOS 17.1 ROM until things are a bit more ironed out.
I think this is the only Android 11 GSI so we all greatly appreciate your work. We're rooting for you

Hey hey, it's still based on PHH's AOSP R, which has been out there for quite a while, just without an XDA thread. Let's all thank him first

Booted up just fine but no mobile data for me even after trying the IMS settings. Great work and thank you for the release!

Works perfectly on xt1962-1 or moto g7 river using LOS17.1 base

'just a report, tried it on oldies J730G booted fine wifi works, sim works, unable to play medias, reboots by itself about every 10mins or so, very snappy though. Thanks. Off to flashing another one, I'm developing a bad habit, just because I can doesn't mean I should

Edited:
Thanks to Phh for fixing ussd on v300L

Successfully installed the a/b-GSI from 2020-12-19 on Xiaomi MI 10T lite (gauguin) via fastbootd (necessary to handle dynamic partitions!).
Camera quality is awefull (;-) ) but the rest i tested so far looks promissing (WiFi works, Fingerprint works ... well see what make problems ;-) ).
Well done guys!!!

Installed it successfuly on my Honor 9 (A/B). Almost everything works. Except:
- SD-Card don't work (as mentioned)
- Can't flash gapps, because of missing twrp for my device

For my gauguin, i used root and Franko-Kernel-Manager to flash NikGapps ... had to mount /system rw manually, but at least it worked.

Thanks. I now using phhusson gsi. With gapps.
Perhaps it is easier to mount r/w with a vndklite Version.
Does anybody know, if it possible to switch between this rom and phhusson rom, without loose data?

Already tested between caosR and los18, just wipe system, cache and dalvik/art via twrp , flash new system img (+gapps if existed before), and reboot.

Hi. Does this rom have the apn issue that other pixel1 a11 roms have? Basically, apn settings don't persist after reboot.
Also, is there a telegram channel for this rom?

Hi. I didn't understand the issue mentioned by Trebor97. And is that now rectified? I am thinking of jumping onto Android 11 and wanted to be sure before I go ahead. This is my daily driver and it takes about a couple of hours to set up from scratch. Thanks

Background:
This is a natural continuation/extension of the LineageOS 18.x GSIs I've been making since 2020.
LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android, 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. 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 Gerrit Code Review.

No guarantees that everything would work. This is a GSI, bugs are bound to happen.
Must-read:
You are STRONGLY ADVISED to try PHH's AOSP of equivalent version FIRST and identify/report issues there, before moving onto other GSIs that are based on his work, including this one.
If you do find bugs on this GSI and want to report, then you MUST try reproducing on AOSP, and ONLY proceed to report here when it's specific to this GSI. This filters out bugs common to all PHH-based GSIs, which you should let PHH know, not me. I might silently ignore your report if you skip this.

Notes:
I now have a rather taxing day job, and can't devote nearly as much time/effort into this as I did as a student.
GAPPS builds are offered as-is without guarantees. Read #10 for more.
/system is RO on regular builds and RW on VNDKLite builds. VNDKLite builds can be used on most non-VNDKLite devices as well.
ADB is intentionally insecure, even on first boot (turned on by default and no authentication needed). GSIs are more fragile compared to device-specific custom ROMs, both on first boot (no-boot issues) and on subsequent boots (after tuning certain Treble settings), and I insist that no-auth ADB is a must-have for debugging and general fail-safe.
Signature spoofing (MicroG) is supported, but only for priv-apps. This is a security consideration from PHH.
Magisk support should be on par with A11 (thanks @eremitein). The "abnormal state / unsupported SU" warning can be ignored. For devices that still don't play well with Magisk (e.g. kernel restrictions implemented by OEM), use PHH-SU instead. Install the app and you'll get root for apps.

Initial builds are based on PHH v400.c and November security patches.
Sigh, I don't really want to make a thread this early...
BTW, 32-bit and A-only users, you should really move on.

Big work thank You

Hey How to flash this Gsi Guys can someone answer me????

Thank you so much. Are gapps included ?

AndyYan said:
32*/A32* users, I'm not stopping your monthly builds just yet, but 32-bit is getting phased out, and you should upgrade soon. Similar goes for A-only. Ideally in the future we'll only have 64B, making room for other much needed variants such as GAPPS.

Their deprecation does seem likely now, so I'll try a GAPPS build or two when I have time.

Do you consider this alpha usable as daily driver?
And, does it require clean installation from LOS 18 GSI?

I am using it as my daily driver - I enabled Gallery and LiveDisplay for just that purpose.
Out of curiosity I did try a dirty install from 18.1. It booted and most apps work, to my surprise, but Messaging won't allow me to select contacts properly no matter what, and that was a blocker, so don't.

People who love LOS, insist on using GAPPS with it, and had been asking me for such builds all this time - I now have a lil something for you, a test LOS19 build with GAPPS built-in. It's intentionally in the "personal" flavor to discourage use as your daily driver, but also shared-blocks (unlike previous "personal" builds) to save some space.
It was more trivial to build than I thought, but that doesn't mean I'll build it alongside vanilla yet...
Every variant takes disk space and build time
The image itself is huge and won't fit in even slightly older devices
Too many archs/variants confuse users
I cannot make any guarantees about it
I've seldom mentioned the last point, yet it's critical - I'm in China and I don't use GAPPS at all, so I have little idea about what counts as "properly working" for GAPPS and how to troubleshoot them. Even if I do eventually build with GAPPS, I can only provide builds as-is, and you'll have to help each other out on GAPPS-related/-induced issues. At the end of the day, I still recommend using other ROMs that are built around GAPPS, e.g. @ponces ' PE, for a more cohesive experience and better support.
For now, all I know is this test build logs in (after registering the device here), can open Play Store and download apps, nothing beyond that.

Huawei P20L mobile data doesn't work

confirmed working on huawei mediapad m5 (cmr-w09 model name)
thx so much AndyYan
first degoogled android 12
su working via phh su app - magisk wasn't working proper

I do the installation through fastboot, because I don't have twrp, The installation is successful, but when I start to start the installation it gives an error: Invalid sparse file format at header magic, and after that it installs normally, but when I start the system, it gets stuck in the logo of the manufacturer of my device, Any solution?

Flashed this ROM on my Oneplus 9 Pro and was surprised how great and smooth it is.
I read on a thread how to fix fingerprint issue on GSI ROM by editing /vendor/build.prop, tried it and ended up in bootloop and I have to start all over.
What's the right way to do this?
Thanks in advance.

That depends on your maintainer (LuK), and also PHH only deals with issues with stock vendors.
Speaking of which, looks like someone else also can't wait for LuK's 19.0, hehe...
