    tried to install in my s2 i9100 usind heimdall for the cwm recovery and PIT for 6gb /system partition, then used a SDCard for the lineageos 14.1 and Gapps 7.1 nano… the device keeps showing the lineageOS blue logo (line and circle) forever… no boot… any advice?

    the OS is awesome!

    but I found some bugs…

    1 – Apps who use camera feature normally uses ZXing (and it’s not optional). ZXing can’t autofocusing (even by touch or configuring autofocus).
    2 – MTP crashes are frequent, principally with built in file explorer.

    thx 4 that great work
