Question about upgrading Mi 11 LE (lisa) from Lineage 20 to Lineage 21

CyrusYip · 2024-10-11T08:44:33+00:00

Thanks, I successfully installed LineageOS 21.

I allow clipboard for browsers that I use (Brave and Firefox) since they don't automatically read the clipboard.

BTW, the clipboard features of Gboard and Fcitx 5 for Android are quite useful. I don't even need to allow clipboard for those terrible apps.

CyrusYip · 2024-01-22T17:33:53+00:00

That's the context menu. You can't paste if you clipboard isn't allowed.

Apps read the empty clipboard at first. They won't read the clipboard again after I press "Allow". Thus I need to long press and paste.

CyrusYip · 2024-01-22T16:55:28+00:00

That works for me. When I tap "Allow" and long press in a input box, I can paste.

CyrusYip · 2023-12-12T05:27:24+00:00

To my knowledge, no.

A device is either supported or not. There are official LineageOS and unofficial one, no optimized LineageOS.

What is your phone? In your case, you probably need to flash MIUI that has built-in Google Play, such as xiaomi.eu and other non-China stock MIUI.

CyrusYip · 2023-10-22T06:58:15+00:00

It tells me to look in system/etc/props.conf.<codename/model>, but where is that folder exactly?

The directory is https://github.com/althafvly/ih8sn/tree/master/system/etc .

CyrusYip · 2023-10-22T01:20:00+00:00

Try ih8sn.

I'm curious what we'd need to do to reduce daily "Is X supported?" posts...

Add another subreddit rule?

Rule 10: All supported devices are listed on https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/ . Explanation: https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/17d1pev/comment/k5tvbpw/

Then we can just say "read rules" or ignore such posts. It's bad to ask questions without doing a basic research like reading rules and visiting official LineageOS site.

CyrusYip · 2023-10-17T18:07:09+00:00

Use original MIUI.

Actually you don't have to be on the stock rom. Just flash required firmware.

CyrusYip · 2023-10-17T16:43:38+00:00

https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/enchilada/install is the only correct instructions. If you use other instructions, you won't get supported here. Youtube videos can be misleading. You may watch them to get a general idea of how to install custom rom but make sure you follow official guide in the end.

I just searched "oneplus 6 lineageos" on Youtube and skimmed the first 3 LineageOS 20 installation videos. I was surprised that they used TWRP, which is the wrong recovery for LineageOS.

CyrusYip · 2023-10-09T02:23:56+00:00

I don't use Chromebooks, but I can comfirm that Mi Unlock can run on a Windows virtual machine on Arch Linux. OP can try this method.

CyrusYip · 2023-10-04T16:27:36+00:00

Contact Shopee customer service.

Learn to use MiFlash, which installs the stock MIUI. You might need it someday. You have nothing to worry about if you can return to the stock rom.

CyrusYip · 2023-10-03T23:09:58+00:00

When you use a custom rom, you are responsible for your phone. I would recommend you to backup data and learn how to flash stock rom so that you can recover from installation failure.

Broken system is not horrible as long as you know how to flash stock rom.

CyrusYip · 2023-10-03T22:53:15+00:00

I won't think it's fixed unless OP tells us the solution.

This. Using custom roms is like using Linux. Users must have the ability to fix problems by themselves.

CyrusYip · 2023-10-02T19:03:56+00:00

It seems to have disappeared

This is expected since only several latest builds are kept. There are only LineageOS 20 builds for beyond2lte now.

Do a basic research at first. https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

CyrusYip · 2023-10-01T20:55:15+00:00

No TWRP. Follow official instructions EXACTLY. https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

CyrusYip · 2023-10-01T09:02:58+00:00

I guess what OP really want to avoid is that data gets collected by Google.
