LineageOS 22.1 brings Android 15 to your old Android phone

  • LineageOS 22.1 based on Android 15 QPR1 is now available for over 100 devices.
  • The latest version of LineageOS brings Android 15 changes as well as a new music player and PDF reader.
  • LineageOS 21 is still around for devices that aren’t supported by 22.1, but 20 is on the way out.

A lot of amazing Android phones are released every year, but for many people, there’s no impetus to upgrade their phone unless the hardware is on the verge of failure. Many people will happily use their phone for years after the manufacturer ends official software support, but this means they’ll miss out on new software features and security fixes introduced in newer Android releases. Plus, over time, their phone’s performance might degrade due to factors like accumulated data and potential software bloat. This is why some people choose to install aftermarket Android-based distributions like LineageOS, which just got updated to bring in the latest changes from the Android 15 release.

LineageOS 22.1 based on Android 15 (QPR1) was made official today by the project’s team. The team has been hard at work developing LineageOS 22.1 after the Android 15 source code was released back in September, and thanks to their previous efforts to adapt Google’s UI-centric changes in earlier Android releases, they were able to rebase their project on top of Android 15 faster than they expected.
