Possible fixes
I've tried to clean the ART and /cache but it did not helped.
It may be caused by:
-
GPS activated and meteo widget buggy => Meteo Widget is buggy on this buidl. It seems that the issue occurs when GPS is enabled and meteo try to access location
-
fingerprint sensor => is proprietary blobs on this device and known to cause issue
-
modem/baseband => using a nougat version is recommanded but I never found the right one that works properly for my phone, GSM signal is poor
-
LOS18.1 is not the latest version and is 2 month old => This e-0.18-r-20211017141319-dev-h990.zip is using LOS18.1 from mid-october 2021, latest version on LOS website is 2021-12-19, this version may solve the issue Does a new build is possible then I can test it?
