LineageOS 17.1 adds support for new OnePlus, Samsung, Xiaomi, and other devices following server hack
LineageOS 17.1 builds are going live for new OnePlus, Samsung, Xiaomi, Motorola, and more devices following a recent server hack.
LineageOS is the most popular AOSP-based custom ROM out there. Its origin can be traced back to CyanogenMod, which was itself not only the most well-known custom ROM many years ago but also the reason the OnePlus One was so well-received by the community. Over the years, the team behind LineageOS has kept the project updated with new versions of Android for dozens of Android devices. The latest version, LineageOS 17.1, is based on Android 10 and supports a long list of devices. Now, the custom ROM team has added official support for their latest release for a lot of devices from OnePlus, Samsung, Xiaomi, and more. Newly added devices include the Essential Phone, Moto X (2014), Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016), Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro, and more.

The smartphone and consumer electronics industry moves at breakneck speed, with new devices coming out one after the other. With all the quick releases and the shiny new hardware, we tend to forget that devices that have already been launched do not necessarily become unusable just because their successors have been released. Smartphones have a usable life beyond what OEMs would like you to believe and provided you take decent care of it, the hardware can definitely last you for more than 3 years, especially if you purchase a flagship. If you have a Moto X or an LG G3 from 2014 lying around, you can try booting up these capable devices and giving them a fresh lease of life with official builds of LineageOS 16 based on Android Pie.
