    • If you want Google apps like Play Services but still value privacy, a common compromise is using microG instead of full GApps, as it provides basic Google functionality with more control. Installing GApps via Magisk (as a systemless module) is possible but tricky, especially on an already set-up Lineage OS system—it’s generally easier to flash GApps right after installing Lineage OS. Since your system is already configured with Aurora and F-Droid, to install Magisk and GApps now, you'd likely need to reflash Lineage OS, then install Magisk, and then use a GApps module for Magisk (like NikGApps Core or MindTheGapps), or alternatively flash GApps during the OS install process. Starting fresh is usually the most stable path for proper integration.
    • Lineage-22.2-20250707-NIGHTLY-pro1x with June 1st security patch installed smoothly via OTA. MindTheGapps15, and root was maintained.
    • Update on the battery, it seems the radio is to blame, and changing the network type seems to help. This night the phone was on my nightstand and over the course of 6 hours went from 100 to 34%. Network was set to LTE/TDSCDMA/CDMA/EVDO/GSM/WCDMA. Looking at battery usage over system showed the radio as the big culprit. (See image). I've set it before to LTE/TDSCDMA/GSM which seems to work for my local cell network, and battery life seemed to be good, however sometimes the phone would hang while on standby and I changed the network type hoping this would not happen. It didn't happen but then the battery drain issue happened. So now I'm back to LTE/TDSCDMA/GSM and will keep watch of the battery duration and if the hanging issue will return.
    • I do not think I done a stock flash, that did NOT have this memory issue, so would strongly suggest to either always do the reset, or at the least make a check, part of the installation procedure
    • Thanks, this is info that's good to know, if I ever go back to stock. Currently giving LOS 22.1 a chance. Although it is eating away at the battery almost as fast as 22.2... 🤦‍♂️
