Versie 23.2 van LineageOS is beschikbaar gekomen. LineageOS is de opvolger van CyanogenMod en een opensourcebesturingssysteem voor smartphones en tablets. Het is gebaseerd op een kale versie van Android en voegt extra functionaliteit toe, waaronder snelkoppelingen in de notificatiebalk, een uitgebreid lockscreen en verschillende thema's voor de interface. Verder zijn er vaak prestatieverbeteringen waar te nemen ten opzichte van de software die een fabrikant zelf meelevert. LineageOS versie 23 is gebaseerd op Android 16 en de releasenotes voor deze uitgave zien er als volgt uit:
23.2 Halftime ReleaseThe last few months have been quite the endeavor, as we have been busy rebasing and updating LineageOS, on not one but two large AOSP releases. Nevertheless, we have persevered and are pleased to present LineageOS 23.2.
Changes in AOSPOver the last few years, AOSP has been shifting to a quarterly release cadence, meaning that new features and bug fixes are released every three months. Google recently announced that AOSP will be shifting to a biannual release cadence, meaning that the latest fixes and features will drop every six months now.
Android Security Bulletins will still be released, and picked to all supported LineageOS versions monthly. While this change does not significantly alter our development process, it is worth noting that LineageOS will adopt a six-month cadence, with work on each new point release starting every six months.
What’s ChangedWhen you install or upgrade to this release, you will immediately notice the new UI and color scheme. This is because LineageOS is now officially using Google’s Material Expressive design system which focuses on expressive colors, and emotive design elements. In addition, you may notice the updated UI of the Quick Settings panel, which now contains fully customizable tiles, which in our opinion are much more pleasant to use! In this release, you will also find an expanded dark theme, and more powerful file utilities surrounding private spaces.
Updated AppsThis release mainly focuses on the Material Expressive design language, and in the interest of keeping up with these guidelines, we have been working diligently at updating the default apps to Material Expressive.
UpdaterContributor pjgowtham has been hard at work on updating the Updater app, and when those changes are merged, you will be treated to a completely redesigned UI, improved update management, delightful animations and various bugs fixed. It wasn’t quite ready for the 23.2 launch, but will be soon, so be on the lookout!
Other appsIn addition to the Updater, Twelve (the default music app), Deskclock and ExactCalculator have received Material 3 Expressive updates, which brings them into the modern era. Stay tuned for similar updates to the other default apps!
Development ToolsIn the previous release changelog, we teased some development tools that were in the midst of being reviewed. These have now been merged, and developers have some new tools in their arsenal:
Leadership Changes
beautify_rro.py: Beautifies multiple existing RROs given a directory.generate_rro.py: Extracts RROs from a prebuilt overlays directory.update_certificates.py: Updates app certificates given a stock dump directory.decompile_cil.py: Extracts sepolicy rules from a prebuilt SELinux image.extract_aconfig.py: Extracts config files from stock dumps.match_manifest_tarball.py: Matches kernel (or source) tarball releases against public Git history.After roughly seven years with Lineage, and another five with CyanogenMod, we’re sad to announce Rashed is stepping away from the project to spend more time offline. We wish him the best! We’re also glad to announce that the current directors group have voted Nolen Johnson (npjohnson) in as the ninth director. Welcome!
DeprecationsOverall, we feel that the 23.2 branch has reached feature and stability parity with 23.0 and is ready for initial release. We will still allow new LineageOS 21 submissions to be forked to the organization, but we will continue our policy of no longer allowing newly submitted LineageOS 21 devices to ship. LineageOS 23.2 will launch building for a decent selection of devices, with additional devices to come as they meet the requirements specified by the Charter and are marked as ready for builds by their maintainer.
Upgrading to LineageOS 23.2To upgrade, please follow the upgrade guide for your device by clicking on it here and then on “Upgrade to a higher version of LineageOS”. If you’re coming from an unofficial build, you need to follow the good ole’ install guide for your device, just like anyone else looking to install LineageOS for the first time. These can be found at the same place here by clicking on your device and then on “Installation”.
Please note that if you’re currently on an official build, you DO NOT need to wipe your device, unless your device’s wiki page specifically dictates otherwise, as is needed for some devices with massive changes, such as a repartition.
