I am completely unfamiliar with Lineage. I literally just flashed PA on my 3t on Friday and have been having some minor issues with it (wifi connectivity and spotty cell coverage) that I didn't have before when the phone was stock. Could you give me a little info about your experience with Lineage and what you like/dislike about it?

I should add, I flashed PA because I bought a really expensive pair of bluetooth headphones (from Sony) that were having really bad connectivity issues that have been mostly resolved by changing roms.

Third party software is always a bumpy ride. Something is going to not work out of the box, optimization will be less than stellar, battery usage won't be as good. I cannot tolerate my cellphone not working 100% of the time.

Can you tolerate a backdoor in it?

I can and I am. As far as I can tell, it's only accessible locally, so I can live with it.

LineageOS gives me a 30% more battery on the OPO! Everything works great.

Do you trust there not to be lower level issues?

Well... at least, this specific one isn't.
