Google did not release Permissions Hub with Android 10, but the code for it still exists within AOSP. LineageOS 17.1 drops support for the homebrewed PrivacyGuard implementation in favor of AOSP’s Permission Hub as the team was unable to port the PrivacyGuard framework to Android 10. We’ve talked about this change in the past, and now the change is finally here. Device maintainers retain the freedom to recommend alternative recovery on their device’s Wiki page alongside full instructions for usage.ĪOSP’s Permission Hub and LineageOS’s PrivacyGuard The team mentions that this change was done purely to streamline their own processes and not to dissuade users away from other custom recoveries. Lineage Recovery will be built by default for all officially supported devices. Lineage is also making the switch to Lineage Recovery as the defacto solution to install LineageOS.

For example, the Heimdall (Samsung flashing tool) instructions were horribly outdated, so these have been updated to reflect new information. This renewed focus on the wiki is in light of the building up changes to AOSP, such as System-As-Root, A/B Partition Scheme, and Dynamic Partitions, which have the combined effect of obsoleting the instructions many of us have been following for years from memory - those instructions are now either no longer valid or are missing very critical steps. As of LineageOS 17.1, maintainers will be expected to run through the full instructions on their device wiki and verify that the information holds true for their device.
