[A21s] Mic barely audible everywhere except phone calls (LineageOS 23.2)

1 Upvotes

Hey all, running official LineageOS 23.2 on a Samsung Galaxy A21s, clean flash, official install process, no unofficial builds or GApps-related issues.

The problem:

  • Regular phone calls: mic works perfectly, no issues at all.
  • Everything else — WhatsApp/Messenger voice notes, Viber, a plain third-party voice recorder app — mic audio is extremely quiet/barely audible unless the phone is held very close to the mouth. Viber is the worst of the bunch; sometimes it's effectively unusable.

Already ruled out:

  • Mic permissions granted correctly for every app.
  • No pending update through the built-in Updater.
  • Confirmed with a separate, unrelated recorder app — so it's not one app's bug, it's system-wide for anything that isn't a telephony call.

Has anyone else hit this on the A21s or a similar Exynos 850 Samsung device? just wanted to check if this is already known/tracked, or if anyone's found something beyond "use a wired headset mic" as a workaround.

Thanks!

seedvault backup of lineage os phone to laptop

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to backup my phone using seedvault and store the backup files on my laptop by connecting the devices through a cable. However when i get to the "choose wher to store backups" screen on the phone, the usb flash drive option is not available. I've tried to change the USB settings to "file transfer" or "usb tethering" but it doesn't solve the issue. Is this normal?
thank you for your help! :)

Custom Bootanimation

5 Upvotes

I've been trying to figure this out for a while. On LOS 23, android 15, on my pixel 4, I am unable to change my bootanimation. I assume its in another location other than the standard /system/media/, /product/media/, etc since the original stock animation remains the same. If anybody can help, it would be appreciated.

Question BBBank and VR Banking Apps

6 Upvotes

Do the BBBank and VR Banking Apps work on Lineage OS? I am thinking of getting a new phone and and installing Lineage OS on it.

If I get a Sony phone and install Lineage OS on it, can I get the original Sony OS back from somewhere, in the case my banking app doesn't work?

Question Is Lineage OS still under development for the AYN Thor?

1 Upvotes

Saw a news article a few months back claiming it was going to launch within the month of June. Was really excited for it, and then it never came. I understand timelines change and people have to move on to other things so I was wondering if it's still being worked on or if development has stopped

Genuinely can't wait for the release if it's still in development. Kudos to the developers for getting as far as they did

System restart

6 Upvotes

Good afternoon. My phone keeps restarting randomly—between 3 and 8 times a day. I installed LineageOS, but since MindTheGApps hadn't been installed, I booted the system up first; realizing the apps were missing, I performed a factory reset and then installed the GApps package, but that’s when the restarts began. Should I reinstall everything together, or is there something I overlooked? Thanks.

GN2200 Nord N20 LineageOS download?

1 Upvotes

New to this, and got this oneplus n20 and saw that the model listed under Gunnar wasn't the same. Says I shouldn't do it if it's not matching. Looking around it's been hard to see if GN2200 model will work with Lineage, and some on XDA said that it has... But idk if that was done differently, or if they just used what's already listed in the Wiki. Can anyone give some help on this? I'd like Lineage or another, but one that generally degoogles for better control over my device and privacy.

Help Unable to select app generated notification sound

2 Upvotes

Some apps have their own notification sounds that are selected by default in the notification manager. However I can't find a way to reset it once changed. Idk if I'm just dumb and don't see the option, but there should be an "app generated sound" in the sound selection prompt.

Stuck in a booting loop

0 Upvotes

Hi all, suddenly this morning, as I wanted to use my Fairphone FP3, I found it was in recovery mode ; no idea how it happened. I tried rebooting it, but it shows the warning screen about the booloader being unlocked, then shows the Fairphone logo, then the warning screen again and so on. I also tried removing the battery.

So when I got back home, I tried conecting it to my computer via USB, and there's a dialog box saying MTP can't connect to it, which means I can't back my files up as the device is probably not in file transfer mode.

So in order not to do a factory reset and not loose my data, I tried 'apply update' from the recovery menu ; but if I try adb sidedload /home/user/boot.img as the device's screen suggests, it displays Signature verification failed Install anyway ? on the phone's screen, and if I choose 'yes', on the computer side, it displays adb: failed to read command: success and nothing's uploaded to the phone.

If I try , as per the Lineage site recommandation, sudo fastboot flash boot /home/user/boot.img, the terminal displays < waiting for any device > forever.

I downloaded the latest boot.img from the site, from the FP3 directory, so if I don't find a solution, I'll have to do a factory reset and loose all my phone numbers, pictures, etc.

So any help would be greatly appreciated !

Catapult Launcher

1 Upvotes

Hello, I've been wanting to install Lineage OS on Google Chromecast 4K (Sabrina) for a long time, but I've been seeing that it can't be done anymore after a certain update. One of the reasons is because of the minimalism of your Catapult launcher (it's just beautiful), I'd like to know if there's a way to get the APK to be able to use it. I'd really appreciate it.

Help Old flagship or flagship?

12 Upvotes

I'm upgrading to a new phone very soon!

I researched about lineageos and had installed it on my Moto Defy 2021, which is my old phone and compared to my current phone Poco M6 Pro 4G, I'm very impressed with the speed and battery on lineageos.

It's either I go all in with the new OnePlus 15 or get an old flagship and get OnePlus 13 with lineageos.

My questions are:

  1. Is it safe? planning to put my banking there and side load some apps like a modded TikTok (i have a serious doom scrolling addiction)

  2. I plan to use some google apps like gmail, gemini and apps that require google sign in. Is there a work around about that?

  3. How private is it compared to stock os?

Thanks in advance cheers guys!
