Could you explain what you didn't like about Graphene in detail?
Do you run Google services on Lineage? The last time I read about it, it was a massive pain with LSPosed and a bunch of modules.
I don't run google services but afaik there is just an extra zip called "gapps.zip" that you flash after lineage itself
My problem was a lack of freedom: i couldn't change some settings that i wanted and also i couldn't give gadget bridge the necessary permissions to function properly. I need gadget bridge for my pine time smart watch
I use gadgetbridge on grapheneos with my pinetime. You need to enable restricted settings for gadgetbridge which is annoying but then it works.
Are you running the version of Lineage with GMS installed, perchance? Lineage doesn't bundle GMS by default which makes it somewhat painful to get things working (especially since SafetyNet is deprecated, that was the last technology I had read about a while back).
Thanks for the input on Graphene
Currently im not using any google services except vanced microg i currently plan on using the proper microg to get google play working. Afaik there is a "LineageOS for MicroG" but not sure wether that's official or even up to date.
Also "you can't just say perchance!"
My apologies, I should go back to school with a better teacher
