Android 12-based LineageOS 19 builds arrive for Galaxy S10 series, Essential PH-1, Xiaomi Mi 10T, and more
TheLineageOS team released the Android 12-based buildsof its ROM late last month with support for a limited set of devices. Since then, the developers have been working hard on adding support for new devices, withbuilds for the Poco X3, Motorola Edge S, original Razer Phone, and the Nubia Mini 5G dropping soon after. Continuing its work on this front, LineageOS has added support for many more devices, including the Galaxy S10 series, the Essential PH-1, and the Xiaomi Mi 10T series.
For the Galaxy S10 lineup, LineageOS only supports the global Exynos variant. If you have the Snapdragon model, you are out of luck as its locked bootloader means you cannot install any custom ROM on it.
The full roster of new devices for which LineageOS 19.1 builds is now available is as follows (viaXDA Developers):
Irrespective of the device you own, make sure to update it to the latest OS release and security patch from your OEM before installing LineageOS 19.
If you intend to try LineageOS 19 on your device, verify to read the wiki page properly. The installation steps will vary depending on your phone and require you to unlock its bootloader and install a custom recovery first. You are also likely to run into some bugs and issues, so make sure to report them to be resolved over time.
For Nvidia Shield TV and Jetson owners, the good news is that the team has reinstated the Android 11-based LineageOS 18.1 builds.
