Could I flash this over my current LineageOS 15.1 of @CaHbKaUp (without a factory reset)?

Both ROMs are not signed so no migration is necessary.
Backup in twrp and then wipe the caches and system.
Do not wipe the data.

Thanks for this ROM, amazing that I now have android 8.1 on this device. Only issue I can see is that OpenGapps doesn't yet support 8.1 so flashing older versions (at least when I tried 8.0) results in an error

This GApps pkg is for Android 8.0.x only, Please download the correct version for your ROM 8.1.0 (SDK 27)

Yes, this will successfully be installed, but will work after you flash this https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617958577

Yeah it is all working nicely now. Once again thanks for getting it out there, can't believe my 5 year old Tablet Z has Oreo before my Galaxy S8 .

Activate and open the Developer Settings, tick on the Terminal. Then type into the Terminal "reboot recovery", maybe you need before to type in "su". Then you hopefully can boot into your Recovery and get SuperSU.

I also cannot boot to Recovery by pressing Vol down and Power. After i flashed SU, i installed a Root App for booting to Recovery. This Solution is actually the best.

I typed reboot recovery at terminal the command cannot be found

A bug with your unit or this Rom?

risant · Jan 19, 2018

this rom... no problem with lineage 14.1.....this is just a minor bug

fedex_742 · Jan 21, 2018

thank You! I've been waiting from december for this, enter to this forum time to time, my tablet its gonna be so happy...

lineagefan123 · Jan 21, 2018

First thanks a lot for the effort!
I tried the new 15.1 build, it looks great, the only bug I recognized is ghost touches. So if I use the screen keyboard suddenly it's gone because of a ghost touch to a different screen region.
There's a developer option to show fingertipps on the screen so I can see that there's touches on parts of the screen where there are in fact none.
I don't have this behavior with lineage 14.1. on the same device (flashed back and forth between the versions).
Also there's an option to set the touch reaction time to "long" but that didn't fully solve the problem.

Thank you Very much! Great work!!

I don't have this issue, Pollux Windy ROM.

hi guys, I'm new here ...great forum, great knowledge
i would ask, if that is a general problem with the recovery.

i had an crash, don't know why, and had to reflash the tablet. so recovery via terminal was not possible.

is power +volume down now working? i would like to test that image.

thanks for help and answer ...
