LineageOS provides you with an up-to-date version of Android. It’s also a pure, stock Android experience. Yes, the Lineage developers add lots of their own tweaks and a handful of apps. However, they respect Google’s interface. 

 Well, LineageOS 15 is a custom ROM made by Lineage OS team, a group of Android enthusiasts who earlier developed CyanogenMod ROM and the Cyanogen OS. Lineage OS 15 is based on Android Oreo (Android 8.0), which is the upcoming Android version. LineageOS 15 packs some additional features over stock Android Oreo, as always. I will try to list out all the additional features here when it will be available.
This page is dedicated to maintain the available download links of Lineage OS 15 (Android Oreo) ROMs available till date, just like we had the Lineage OS 14.1 list of devices and the Lineage OS 13 list of devices. For now this page may not have a great list count of Lineage 15 ROMs accumulating for all the available devices but eventually this list will grow bigger and bigger. Just stay tuned to this post if you want the latest Lineage OS 15 (Android Oreo) ROM for your Android device. It is not guaranteed that your device will get an update of LineageOS 15 but you can hope for the best. Always
This is the biggest reason to install a custom ROM. If it supports your device, it will provide you with a pure, up-to-date Android experience. It’s a way to revitalize old Android devices that manufacturers are no longer updating.


Welcome to LineageOS’ regularly irregular review, where we go over changes in the last few weeks

Are you looking to download the latest Android Oreo based LineageOS 15 ROM for your device?? Well, let me tell you, Android Oreo has been released since a while and here we have a list of available download links of Lineage OS 15 ROM(s) for many devices. These are all UNOFFICIAL LineageOS 15 Oreo ROMs list from various developers across the globe and you will also see some OFFICIAL LineageOS 15 builds as they will start rolling out from the Official LineageOS team !! How do you know when your device is getting the LineageOS 15 ROM?? The simple answer is: just stay subscribed to this Lineage OS 15 Oreo list, which will be updated almost daily.
If you see closely, there are many devices which have not yet got LineageOS 14.1 ROM or even LineageOS 13 ROM. It is the individual developers who take interest to port LineageOS to a certain device and hence the availability cannot be guaranteed for all the devices. But I will thrive to bring the LineageOS 15 download links and guides for all of the available devices from all of the developers as far as possible.

Unlock your Android phone in order to install the Oreo factory images.

Android 8.0 Oreo is here—and by "here," we mean it's rolling out only to Google-produced devices, phones that run the stock, unmodified version of Android. Essentially, only those who own Google Pixel phones, the recent Google Nexus phones, and a couple of tablets can access it easily.

On the smartphone you want to upgrade, head to the Android Beta program's sign-up page. If you're on a compatible device, then you can simply tap the Enroll device button. After a short delay, you should receive a prompt to download and install Android 8.0 Oreo on that phone. Then you can start enjoying all the features of the new operating system.
A manual update requires some technical know-how, because you need to use tools designed for app developers. And if you make a wrong move, you risk bricking your phone. What's more, this type of update will completely wipe your device in the process, so again, you need to back up everything that you want to keep. In short, we only recommend this option if you're comfortable tinkering around with your device, and you have a spare phone you can switch to should the worst happen. Otherwise, just wait for the automatic update.
You can download the operating system’s public code, known as its factory image, from the Android Developer Portal. Locate your phone's make and model in the list, find the entry for Android 8.0, and click Link to start the download. Then extract the files to a folder of your choice.
Once you've saved the factory-image files somewhere on your hard drive, your next step is to set up the developer tools. First, you need to unlock your device so you can install new software. Essentially, you're disabling the setting that makes your phone wait for a verified update from your carrier. Next, download the SDK Platform Toolszip file, and extract it to a folder of your choice on your hard disk. You might want to create a new folder for this specific purpose.
You also need to get your phone ready for action. Head to About Phone in Settings, tap the Build number seven times, and you should see a dialog box confirming your phone is now ready for some developer tweaks. Go back to Settings, find the new Developer options menu, and make sure to enable both USB debugging and OEM unlocking.
Once your phone's ready to go, connect it to your computer with its manufacturer-supplied USB cable. Then open a command line or terminal window in the folder you've extracted the Platform Tools folder to:
  • On Windows, navigate to the Platform Tools folder in File Explorer, then Shift+right-click on the folder thumbnail and choose Open PowerShell window here (PowerShell is the modern replacement for the command prompt).
  • On macOS, launch Terminal by typing its name into Spotlight and then drag the Platform Tools folder from Finder into the Terminal window. Once you're in the right place with a command line, type "fastboot flashing unlock" to unlock your phone and get it ready for the Android Oreo factory image.
If you run into difficulties or get stuck, Google offers a more comprehensive guide to performing manual Android updates.

For other devices: Install the launcher

To be honest, if your smartphone isn't a Nexus or a Pixel, then you can't wave a magic wand and get Samsung, HTC, or any other manufacturer to release an update especially for your device. We've already mentioned the delays that happen when third-party manufacturers get involved in Android updates, and unfortunately, we can't offer you any secret shortcut around those.
