    Post Newbie-friendly: TWRP and Root for Samsung S3 Tablet

    Getting ready to do my SM-T820 for the first time because it's slow as hell, and by all accounts should still be a capable tab. Have experience rooting/flashing other roms but I'm already having a bad time. Magisk has no download links that I can see on that link.... just pages of changelog...

    Post Work profile custom keyboard problem after updating to android 8

    Just got 1 May OTA update on my S8. No joy enabling swiftkey :( Also Google Pay isn't working. I have it set up (two cards viewable when I open the app), but when I swipe my phone it seems to default to my work profile which has no cards loaded, and prompts me to set one up.

    Post Work profile custom keyboard problem after updating to android 8

    Driving me crazy. A work auth problem made me reset my device policy app and I lost my apparent grandfathered permission mentioned earlier. This Samsung keyboard is laggy and driving me crazy. I miss my Swiftkey.

    I am having BLE connection problems after the external device switches on after being off for a period. Is the BLE/GATT implementation by Lineage or Android or Samsung (hardware or software)? I can't have a flakey connection with my BLE device as it's a medical device. Just wondering if I need...

    I have another phone g900f on lineage Nougat, it has a massive Google play services bug (creates a boot loop). I think Google has done something that broke a lot of custom ROMs. May not be related, but the annoying thing about my other phone is you can't avoid it by using an old gapps and...

    I think that's a gapps issue, you need to flash those before you boot the room, plus you need to set up the partition properly as per instructions on the first post. Try again and let us know.

    Good news is that the Kies update seemed to work, and now LTE shows in my available network types. But Android is still 4.2.2. Kies says I'm up to date and hitting check for an OTA says the same thing. As expected I lost root. Should I keep scanning for an update?
