[quote quote=20898]Hi,
I have a Sony Z1 (honami) with cyanogenmod 12.1.
What would the procedure be to update that to Lineage OS 14.1?
As far as i could tell, there is only an unofficial rom for the Z1.
Data can be wiped.
Would be great if you could let me know.
Thanks
Martin
[/quote]Yes there is an unofficial Lineage OS 14.1 ROM available for the Xperia Z1. Below is the update guide:
How to update Xperia Z1 to Lineage OS 14.1May 8, 2024 at 6:51 AM #24093Linux UserParticipantHi,
I have CyanogenMod version 13.1.1-ZNH2KAS2X1 (Android 6.01, Build MHC19Q) on a OnePlus One A0001.
Due to travels i was unable to upgrade to Lineage sooner but now am keen to get it done.
Is the option to upgrade to Lineage from CM 13.1 still available?Ideally i would like to keep all apps and data intact through the upgrade process and not wipe the phone.
I have managed to find a few Lineage 13 downloads but i am not sure if they are experimental or not. Reading this it seems that they have to be. Also if i need to upgrade to CM 14.x first without wiping please advise.
Can someone give me a few pointers or assistance in finding the correct walk-through as the last time i installed a mod, things went awry and i had to wipe it.
Thanks

[/quote]If you are able to get the LineageOS experimental build for OnePlus One then you should be able to migrate from CyanogenMod to LineageOS.
It is not available on the LineageOS website but you need to search else where either on Google or on OnePlus forum might be the right place.[quote quote=24093]Hi,

[/quote]If you are migrating from CM 13 to LineageOS 13 then you need not to wipe.
But if you are going to migrate or rather I will say upgrade from CM 13 to LineageOS 14.1 then you have to wipe everything and start over again. It is because of the upgrade of Android to a major version.In some cases people do dirty flash (flashing without wiping anything) when moving to a major version (like from CM13 to 14.1 or LineageOS 13 to 14.1) and things work somehow, but if something goes wrong or the phone does not work the way it should then you have to go for a wipe anyway.
May 8, 2024 at 6:51 AM #24323Linux UserParticipantHello,
I have CyanogenMod 13.1 unofficial version for Zenfone 5 T00J and I use this version since march of last year. But, as is an unofficial version, my camera and my GPS doesn’t works. I want to upgrade to Lineage OS, but my device doesn’t is in ASUS Lineage OS 13 Devices List.
I want to know if is possible to upgrade for Lineage OS 13 even my device doesn’t is in list.May 8, 2024 at 6:51 AM #24369Linux UserParticipant[quote quote=24323]Hello,

[/quote]It is possible that no developer have ported the LineageOS 13 for the Zenfone 5. But I can see that a LineageOS 14.1 for Zenfone 5 is available. But to upgrade from CyanogenMod 13 to LineageOS 14.1 you have to wipe everything (clean flash) and the CyanogenMod to LineageOS migration will not work.
May 8, 2024 at 6:51 AM #14616Linux UserParticipantHi All,
I updated successfully but some google apps (services, play, gmail, etc.) just crash at every start. Other apps (whatsapp, opera, etc.) works properly. Personal data seems unchanged, the actual version is LineageOS 14.1, I came from CM 14.1. What should I do?
Thanks
Alex
May 8, 2024 at 6:51 AM #16157Linux UserParticipantI’m sorry but can someone just post the link for the experimental builds and weekly builds? or are they the same? Because according to the way he’s saying it, its different
*I can’t find any weekly builds btw

May 8, 2024 at 6:51 AM #16178Linux UserParticipantEXPERIMENTAL builds are ONLY meant to help users to migrate from CyanogenMod 14.1 to Lineage OS 14.1. WEEKLY builds are periodic builds with Lineage OS feature updates and BUG fixes.
So, the EXPERIMENTAL build and the WEEKLY build is different.
By the way, for which device are you looking for the EXPERIMENTAL and WEEKLY builds ??
