Just installed it on my OP5T (dumpling). Still have root, passing device and basic integrity. Apps are snappy, brightness feels more balanced, and I just LOVE the use of screen real estate. Smaller fonts and icons make the screen feel huge

Dirty flashed over Lineage 20 with updated Gapps. Just make sure you unhide Magisk first or you'll have to re-root after.

Great job, Lineage team!

If you root, install Lineage, and gapps, do Google Wallet and banking apps work?

It was never a problem for me atleast. If you are using magisk, you can hide it right away from the app.

Yeah, you would likely need a SafetyNet fix plus "Enforce Deny List" the apps in Magisk

No. Not usually. Some work and some don't. What would be useful is some os seem to have a sandbox. So everything works in it. Then you have the rest of the phone separate

How do you go about passing basic integrity? I thought Play Integrity Fix was dead.

Fight Club rules here, but look for discussions on xda

I use lineage with gapps, and it runs faster on my old device than stock android on a newer phone. YMMV, but this is empowering to me as a user.

Same. Lineage is the reason I can keep phones for so long.

So, the site is completely blocked if I don't dissable my add block? Fuck your site
