Heres Lineage OS Device List Downloads

This page explains what the LineageOS device list and downloads page is, how to find your device, and how to download and install the correct build. You enter your device model, pick the official or nightly build, and get the download link plus installation instructions.

Formula

The calculator above is a pace calculator, not a LineageOS tool. It computes average pace and speed from finish time and distance. The formula is:

pace = t / d

speed = d / (t / 60)

Where t is time in minutes, d is distance in kilometers, pace is minutes per kilometer, and speed is kilometers per hour.

Worked Example

Using the defaults: t = 50 min, d = 10 km.

pace = 50 / 10 = 5.00 min/km

speed = 10 / (50 / 60) = 12.00 km/h

The calculator shows 5.00 min/km and 12.00 km/h.

What Is LineageOS?

LineageOS is a free, open-source operating system for smartphones and tablets, based on the Android platform. It is the successor to CyanogenMod, a popular custom ROM that was discontinued in 2016. LineageOS is developed by a community of volunteers and offers a clean, near-stock Android experience without the bloatware and proprietary apps that many manufacturers include.

The project supports a wide range of devices, from older models that no longer receive official updates to current flagships. Each supported device has a dedicated page on the LineageOS wiki, which lists the device’s codename, the latest available build, and step-by-step installation instructions.

How the Device List Works

The LineageOS device list is a curated catalog of all devices that have official builds. It is not a single download page but a collection of per-device pages. Each device page includes:

• The device codename (e.g., beryllium for the Xiaomi Pocophone F1)
• The current LineageOS version (e.g., 20, 21, 22)
• Build type: official, nightly, or weekly
• Download links for the ROM and, if needed, recovery images
• Installation instructions and known issues

To find your device, you can browse the list alphabetically or search by brand and model. The list is available on the official LineageOS website under the “Devices” section. Each device page also shows the device’s build status (e.g., active, frozen, or discontinued).

How to Download and Install

Downloading LineageOS is straightforward, but installation requires some technical steps. Here is the general process:

1. Identify your device model and its codename. You can find the codename in the device list or by using an app like Hardware Info.
2. Unlock the bootloader of your device. This is usually done via the manufacturer’s official tool (e.g., Google’s fastboot for Pixel devices).
3. Install a custom recovery like TWRP (Team Win Recovery Project) or the LineageOS recovery provided on the device page.
4. Download the ROM and, if needed, the recovery image from the device’s download page.
5. Boot into recovery and perform a factory reset (wipe data/factory reset).
6. Install the ROM by selecting the downloaded zip file.
7. Reboot the device. The first boot may take several minutes.

Note that installing a custom ROM voids the warranty and carries a risk of bricking the device if done incorrectly. Always follow the official instructions for your specific device.

Common Problems and Misconceptions

One common misconception is that all devices on the list get the same version of LineageOS. In reality, each device has its own build, and not all devices receive the latest Android version due to hardware limitations or lack of maintainers. Some devices may stay on an older version for months or years.

Another issue is that users sometimes download the wrong build for their device variant. For example, the Samsung Galaxy S5 has multiple variants (e.g., SM-G900F, SM-G900T), each with a different codename. Installing the wrong build can cause boot loops or other problems.

If you encounter issues, the LineageOS wiki and community forums are the best resources. Common fixes include re-downloading the ROM, checking the checksum, and ensuring you have the latest recovery.

How to Choose the Right Build

When choosing a build, consider the following:

• Official vs. unofficial: Official builds are maintained by the LineageOS team and are more stable. Unofficial builds may have additional features but are not guaranteed to work.
• Version: Newer versions (e.g., 22) offer the latest Android features but may be less stable on older hardware. If you want stability, choose the latest stable version.
• Build frequency: Nightly builds are updated frequently but may have bugs. Weekly builds are a middle ground.

For most users, the latest official stable build is the best choice. If you need a specific feature or app that requires a newer Android version, you may need to use an unofficial build.

Costs and Safety

LineageOS is completely free to download and use. There are no hidden costs, and the source code is publicly available. However, installing it requires time and technical skill. If you are not comfortable with the process, consider seeking help from a knowledgeable friend or a professional.

Safety is a concern when installing custom ROMs. Always download from the official LineageOS website to avoid malicious modified builds. Verify the SHA256 checksum of the downloaded file. Never install a build from an untrusted source, as it may contain malware or spyware.

Alternatives to LineageOS

If LineageOS does not support your device or you want a different experience, there are alternatives:

• GrapheneOS: Focuses on privacy and security, but supports only Pixel devices.
• CalyxOS: Also privacy-focused, supports a limited set of devices.
• crDroid: A custom ROM with extra customization options, based on LineageOS.
• Stock Android: If your device is a Pixel, you can use the official Android builds.

Each alternative has its own device list and installation process. Research before choosing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is LineageOS safe to use?
Yes, if you download from the official website and follow the instructions. The project is open-source, and the code is reviewed by the community. However, installing any custom ROM carries a small risk of bricking your device.

Q: Will I still get updates after installing LineageOS?
Yes, official builds receive updates regularly. The frequency depends on the device and the build type. Nightly builds are updated almost daily, while weekly builds are updated once a week.

Q: Can I install LineageOS without a computer?
No, you need a computer to unlock the bootloader and flash the recovery. Some devices allow using an app like Official TWRP App, but it is still recommended to use a computer for safety.

Q: What is the difference between LineageOS and stock Android?
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and includes additional features like custom themes, privacy controls, and performance tweaks. It does not include Google apps by default, but you can install them separately.

Q: My device is not in the list. Can I still install LineageOS?
If your device is not officially supported, you may find unofficial builds on forums like XDA Developers. These are not maintained by the LineageOS team and may be unstable.

Q: How do I find my device’s codename?
You can find it in the device list on the LineageOS website, or by using an app like Hardware Info or CPU-Z. The codename is usually a single word like beryllium or guacamole.
