LineageOS 17.1 released for Nextbit Robin, Moto G5 and Moto E5 Plus

After giving the OnePlus 5 / 5T and Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e LTE a taste of LineageOS 17.1, the LineageOS team is now adding four new smartphones to the official LineageOS 17.1 roaster: the Nextbit Robin (ether), Moto G5 (cedric ), Moto G5S (montana) and Moto E5 Plus (hannah).

If you own any of the devices mentioned above and want to try LineageOS 17.1, follow the WiKi page for your respective device in the table below. On the WiKipage page, click “Get Versions Here” to find the download links for the latest Nightly LineageOS and the recovery image for your smartphone. You can also go directly to the LineageOS Downloads page and find your device in the list.

Flashing the LineageOS version should be pretty straightforward if you already have an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery like TWRP installed on your smartphone. Remember to take a backup of your important data beforehand and follow the step by step flashing instructions given by the developer to avoid encountering any issues.

Much to the disappointment of the owners of the Galaxy S9, Galaxy Note 9, Redmi Note 7 and OPPO Find 7, official support for these devices has been discontinued, meaning they will no longer receive new versions in the future. Recognized XDA Developer Erfanoabdi cites lack of time and loss of access to the device as respective reasons for the end of support for Galaxy S9 / Galaxy Note 9 and Redmi Note 7. Likewise, mikeNG also cites lack of time as the reason to end support for the OPPO Find 7. You can either stick to the most recent night or search for alternative ROMs on your respective device’s XDA forum.
