The question is: Would a Google Play Store rollout be implemented on your MicroG-System? I like @AnotherElk procedure to stay current by upgrading yourself - especially when you can establish a simply workflow.

After having read above info i also installed lineage-14.1-20180109.
Found that safety-updates are still from December, 5th 2017.
Therefore, assume that updates for Spectre are not yet included.,
Today’s update has security patch level 2018-01-05. Installed without problems using the updater. Don’t have time for a full feature test now, but messaging and audio player work

Do I need to reflash open Gapps after each update?
From here on …
Short: No, but it can’t hurt when you are in TWRP anyway.

Just updated to lineage-14.1-20180220-nightly-FP2-signed.zip (includes February patch level) with the updater. Smooth as always.
Do you know, whether the latest FP2 update against reboot issues is included already?
It is not included, and the update apparently is in the binary blobs … so I guess the update would be in a new modem.zip and not in the LineageOS build.
Can anyone confirm?

“A special update has been released. You can get it only through the updater.
The changes in this special update are going to be included in the binary blobs of the March monthly release, due out in early March.”

Installed recently latest modem-zip. Is it true that it is not necessary to re-install modem after every update of LOS?
The good but astonishing news for me after installation of modem-zip is:
My phone which became sometimes relatively warm stays cool.
It is only necessary if there is a new version of it.
It gets installed independently from the OS, so you can install the OS as many times as you want, the installed modem files don’t get deleted or changed by that.
Sometimes they even fix stuff with a new version .
I’d also like to know - a friend of mine has a Q3/2017-FP2 with Lineage OS and lots and lots of reboots per day and relies on my help to get rid of those as soon as possible. Does she need to get her hands on a new modem.zip and flash through TWRP or can she just install the upcoming Update next Tuesday?
The activivy of @chrmhoffmann here: Commits · TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_fairphone · GitHub seems to hint to an integration in the upcoming Update or am I wrong?
That, it seems. Coming with the next regular Fairphone update early march.
This can’t hurt anyway. Stuff gets fixed all the time .
Hi, no it does not include the reboot fix.
The reboot fix package is not yet available for download (only through updater). Also, if the fix is really only in modem (NON-HALOS image), it would not be distributed with lineage but must be flashed separately.
