Undergoing Testing
The next major milestone for /e/OS is the release of v1.0

Some issues in the gitlab may be marked confidential by their owners and will not be visible to all.
Issues get marked confidential as they contain user logs or user device information. At times when we are working on a new feature and not exactly sure if it will work, we mark it confidential during the development phase. -
ETA for release 31 May 2022
-
The code name for this release is Alicante
We will not have a v0.24 as the build numbering will now start with v1.0
Answers to some queries around v1.0
- A v1.0 release does not mean we will have no bugs pending in the /e/OS gitlab
.
Dev team will be prioritizing issues and will fix them. You can check the fixes coming as part of v1.0 in the milestone link shared above. - GSI builds will be available even after release of v1.0
- Sources of last GSI release are available here

OS OTA Upgrade
s7 /s7 edge
Status: 
Testing
- We are testing the OTA OS upgrade for s7 / s7 edge.
- With the focus on v1.0 there is a slight delay here.
- Do not have an ETA on the release as yet
Update 16 May We expect to release the OS upgrade build of s7/s7+ in the first week of June after v1.0 goes live.
Oreo and Nougat devices
- We will try to upgrade devices where possible. Builds failed for devices on these two operating systems. We may eventually drop support for devices stuck on Oreo and Nougat.
- Users willing to take up the task of ROM Maintainers pl let me know.
ROM Builders - Unofficial and Custom
- A new Docker image has been released
- If you use Docker for your builds, upgrade to this Docker build before running your custom-builds.
- Those building using traditional repo sync method refer android_prebuilts_prebuiltapks_lfs
- You will have to install git-lfs (
sudo apt-get install git-lfs) - After completing a repo sync, you will have to run
repo forall -c 'git lfs pull'
- You will have to install git-lfs (
Reason behind these changes:
-
Due to the large size of the android_prebuilts_prebuiltapks we have switched to using LFS, and now you will need to refer to android_prebuilts_prebuiltapks_lfs
-
We will have the device porting team publish some documentation around this
