The Tarball is corrupted.

Unfortunately wget downloads the html page. You have to navigate there in a browser to get the download.

@redabhr the Lineage 17.1 link is now also down.

Is there still an image available working with SM-A320FL?

I found this - but I can't verify if these are legit. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1csDwDsAnTLfH2lGoEsZ9qVz_OcSbVMwq

GPS is completely non-functional under any circumstances, the camera is constantly crashing, especially when switching to selfie mode. I have not been able to find another functional camera app that gives satisfactory results and does not crash or has incorrect image proportions. Pity, it looked promising...

I have the same problem with the GPS. It's not working.

Load the blobs... Debug them etc., fix the problems which come up... It is not gonna work out of the box, this is not a supported image.

Where can i download LineageOS 16 for it?

Apps that access GPS via Google Play services only work if GApps are installed. With GApps installed, location services with lineage-19.1-20220904-UNOFFICIAL-a3y17lte.zip work properly for me.

this rom seemed pretty stable when I installed it, I have only used it for a couple of hours but noticed 0 crashes. I use the rom without gapps or microg. The camera ran stable when I tried it, but I don't use the camera. Mobile data and calls also worked for me fine.
