And another new build (from the v4-staging tag, which is still producing 4.1 builds. I guess I’ll pickup 4.2 next time I build).

I’ve dirty flashed over the previous version with no obvious problems. And Aurora Store seems to be working fine again now)
Have fun!
After a few days use on my daily driver, I noticed that the battery performance is badly degraded with this build (iode-4.1-20230530-lilac): previous build (iode-4.1-20230419-lilac) would easily last a whole day, even with quite heavy use, Typically with ~20% or 30% left when I put it on charge before going to sleep. This build is running down to 10%-15% by late afternoon / early evening with only light use. With heavy use it is likely to run out sometime in the afternoon.
I recommend 'downdating` to the 20230419 build. I ‘dirty flashed’ iode-4.1-20230419-lilac over iode-4.1-20230530-lilac with no problems. I was concerned that it moht not work so I did a TWRP backup and backed up using ABRT before I dirty flashed, but it seems that was not necessary (for me at least) - your mileage may differ
Ok thanks for the news. I didn’t had time to download the new build so I can’t tell you if it was the same for me
My banking forced me to look out for a device with at least Android 9 since my X compact with stock had only 8.
I chose the xz1 compact, the same that I suggested to my girlfriend years ago.
It came with preinstalled havoc OS, but I wanted to try some other Roms, since they are offered here, thankfully.
My experience with iodé: in dark environment, the automatic display brightness is a little indecisive.
I like the keyboard. The open camera app has manual sharpness ruler. I´m not sure if push notifications work fully, since I tried a strange app “push notification tester” that says that does not.
But most important, I couldn´t get some paid apps from google play store get running. Tried signed in the google account at aurora store, checked the microG settings, they all were checked, was also signed in there with my google account… Some apps won´t work, so I tried now Lineage OS, with some “more google”…
An update on this:
TL:DR
there is no battery drain problem with the latest build: battery use is roughly the same as in the previous build;
issue was almost certainly a rogue app
See this XDA Forum post for full details
A new 4.2 build is available
I have dirty flashed it over my previous version, and it seems to be working with no obvious problems.
Have fun!
With my more recent builds (of IodéOS and LineageOS4microG) for lilac, I started to encounter the mobile data problems that have been reported previously on LOS-based ROMs for this device . Specifically, some sites and some apps which access the internet were working fine when connected via WiFi, but failing or timing out when connected via mobile data, even though the phone was showing a good 4g connection.
My network provider is Your Co-op, a UK MNVO which uses the EE network
The ‘fix’ that worked for me was to edit the EE Internet APN, changing APN type to default instead of default,supl. (I recall that I had to add the ,supl a couple of years ago to fix a similar problem). I don’t know why the problem started to occur for me, or why the ‘fix’ works, but I hope my experience might help any others who may be encountering a similar problem.
GPS not working well in this build 
GPS Test is taking a very long time to get a fix.
I thin it’s device-specific - the unofficial sunfish build I made immediately after this build seems to work with no problems
Any ideas where to start looking?
Here’s an updated 4.2 build. It includes the new-ish ‘Charging control’ functionality, which I know nothing about and which I’m not yet using 
This seems to have gone away: maybe the new build, maybe the fact I have disabled all the Network-based Geolocation modules (Apple, Déjà Vu, Local NLP Backend, MOzilla Location Service) in MicroG settings. Only the Nominatim address lookup mudule is enabled. Whatever, GPS fix is now pretty quick once I go outside
It is very improbable that NLP providers break GPS. There have been some updates in the msm8998 kernel: maybe that solved something. It could also have been a problem in the build itself (bad compilation of something, glitches from previous builds, …).
I’ll re-enable the backendS and see what happens
[LATER]
OK - in the latest build, with all four backends enabled, after reboot and clearing GPSTest data, GPSTest gets a fix within a few seconds
I’m not going to try to work out what the problem was: it could be any of the things you mention. Thanks anyway
Hi, I just did the last update, everything seems to work. I didn’t really understand what was the problem with the GPS, anyway, on this last version it seems to work for me, nor better or worse than before (it was always slow)
I had a lot of work so I couldn’t do or check all your updates, sorry. But thanks.
I had a problem with adb sideload, I couldn’t flash the update. I always got this (even if adb devices got no error)
adb devices
List of devices attached
BH906X019E recovery
adb sideload iode-4.2-20230710-lilac.zipadb: sideload connection failed: no devices/emulators found
adb: trying pre-KitKat sideload method…
adb: pre-KitKat sideload connection failed: no devices/emulators found
I gave up and flashed it from an sdcard. But I’d really like to understand why sometimes it returns this and why sometime it works.
If you know why, I’d be glad to understand.
That error usually indicates that adb / debugging is not enabled. Ignore that - clearly adb is enabled, or adb devices would return an empty list
Which recovery are you using, and have you entered the adb sideload function in recovery on the device when you call adb sideload on your computer?
I have this version of TWRP
twrp-3.6.2_12-0-20221002-lilac.img
And yes I do adb sideload on the recovery before calling it on the computer
Then I have no idea why you’re seeing that message - sorry!
No problem. Thanks for trying 
EDIT: DO NOT use this build - there are real problems with mobile data, and the build is not signed properly. I will remove the files from Android File Host
New 4.3 build available here
links deleted
4.4. build available here.
Two ways to install
fastbbotfastboot reboot bootloader
# to 'dirty flash'
fastboot --skip-reboot update iode-4.4-20230816-lilac-img-eng.zip
# clean flash - will remove user-installed apps & data
fastboot --skip-reboot -w update iode-4.4-20230816-lilac-img-eng.zip
Whichever method you use, make a backup before flashing just in case
Enjoy!
I’ve done it, it seems to work.
I had something with f-droid since a couple of weeks (the problem with updating microg en fake store).
The update seems to have worked up the problem with microg but I still have the error 7 with fake store.
I have two xperia xz1 compact and the problem is on the two devices.
Guessing that you dirty flashed, then FakeStore will have lost the ‘Spoof package signature’ permission. Re-enable it (Settings | Apps | Show all apps, choose ‘Show system’ from the three lines menu, scroll down to (or search for) FakeStore. Click on ‘Permissions’ and allow ‘Spoof package signature’
