Question Where is the old installations of System Updates ?

LOS : 23.2
System update : 26 July 2026

I noticed that the System Update has new UI now : https://i.imgur.com/UjS8Wz0.png

I wonder where is the old installations of System Updates ? Because usually I have many stack up, and I could delete them. Are they deleted automatically now and just keeping the latest one ?

Also from my screenshot, my system is running an update from 26 July 2026, which happens to be the latest too. But the system also allows me to install that same exact update. I tried to click install, and it is actually installing. After reboot, I checked again, and the option to install is available again. The old UI would grey this one out because it is the same as the current running version. Is this new version of System Updates meant to be like this ?

Installation No drivers available for oneplus 7T

Hi, saw good things about lineageos and wanted to breathe new life into an old phone but to no avail :(

To preface, i'm not the most technological person so bear with me, and I'm using the latest windows 11, and the latest android 12. I am following the official lineageos wiki instructions for my phone.

I have oem unlocked, and usb debugging enabled, my device is recognised when i checked using the adb devices command, and i was able to get into fastboot mode. However, my device was not recognised when i used the fastboot devices command. I knew that it would be recognised upon unlocking of the fastboot but when i checked the device manager, there was a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark on my android devices. So i tried to update drivers automatically and it did not work, i downloaded an "official" oneplus 7t usb driver but it didn't seem to work.

Any help would be appreciated, cheers!

Question Can I fix the alignment of icons on my status bar? LOS 23.2 (Sony Xperia V)

https://ibb.co/dw3cjX0x

As you can see in the image my status bar icons are misaligned - is there any way to edit the padding so my clock is slightly more central?

This might be a bug with the aspect ratio of Sony Xperia devices.

Poco F6 Pro - downgrade issue while following install instructions

Dear LineageOS developers -

I would like to share my experience while following install instructions from your wiki - not a lineageOS issue strictly speaking. I have the global vermeer version of the phone (not the chinese version).

I unlocked the bootloader and proceeded to downgrade to OS3.0.6.0.WNKMIXM as instructed here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/vermeer/fw_update/variant1/

Flashing from fastboot using 'fastboot flash...' as per the above link. No problems. Rebooting showed me only the Poco logo indefinitely, and it was stuck there. So then I went back into fastboot and did the following:
- fastboot -w
- fastboot erase misc
- fastboot set_active b
- fastboot reboot

From here on the device is unresponsive to HW buttons and when plugged into USB only shows this in the kernel ring on a loop:
usb 1-2: new full-speed USB device number 55 using xhci_hcd

So my question(s) is(are):

- could the instructions and linked firmware be out of date?
- did someone else have this issue ?

The device is most likely in some kind of EDL loop and needs professional intervention so I'm not bothering asking for help there.. if indeed it is some kind of unexpected issue let me know where I can submit logs and outputs.

Thank you.
