[CLOSED][ROM][7.x][unified] LineageOS 14.1

[bluesaka111]

which device? GT-P5110?
that device can still run this awesome rom (minus the long neck first boot time and incomplete, lack of support, incomplete CM14 / LOS 14 themes on play store which cause system apps crash like flies).
Recovery support for all Tab 2 devices (Download the newest) http://andi34.github.io/recoveries_tab2.html

If you know how to use Samsung Odin, download the md5 extension file and you will be able to flash recovery directly using Odin.
If not, use the outdated recovery to flash the new recovery.

a team to support lineageos on Galaxy Tab 2

Is anyone interested to build a team so we can support LineageOS on Galaxy Tab 2?

It might be easier if we are more than one person alone...

Maybe @Android-Andi would change his mind if we are numerous enough...

 

[Android-Andi]

No and we don't need to discuss this here.

Just make a separate thread and discuss it there

Andi was done too much thing for a device that released in 2012, so if Andi wants to rest, we can't blame him for it. I will work for Android P if I find time in college.

(Sorry for my bad English)

Thanks For All The Fish!

Ok, thanks @ChuckMichael for showing me that support has not been discontinued...

This makes it so bad that LOS is not available for this device...

You forgot to hit the Thanks :good: button on his TWRP not discontinued post.

Why "so bad"?

I am very grateful for all the work that @Android-Andi did supporting our old devices all those years & he still maintains his site linked in post #1 which contains download links & excellent FAQ & how-to's & he is still active on XDA's forums but if he ever decides to move to a region with no internet access & near a nice fishing pond or salmon river that's fine with me.

On my Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 GT-P3113 espressowifi I am currently running Android-Andi's unofficial Lineage 13.0 [ROM][6.x] LineageOS 13.0 as I found the 14.1 too laggy after a couple of days (lineage-14.1_espressowifi-7.1.2-20180131-1818.zip) & it's so good to be able to use a cleaner & more recent Android 6.0.1 based LineageOS firmware compared to the last bloated stock Samsung 4.2.2 released in 2013 for that device.

Help

Just tried all the nougat ROMs, found one major issue: battery. The CPU is always at 1008MHz. Thought it to be a issue due to android logging, disabled logging, no luck. Thought it to be a kernel issue, downgraded to an older, still no luck. Set CPU governor to powersave, device became ****ty. Downgraded to AICP 11.0 by @ixcj1, no problems on MM. Any suggestions?

You do realize that cpu the tablet is running is from 2012 right?

great thanks

You're right @curiousrom, I'm very grateful to @Android-Andi for all the good job he has done on Galaxy Tab 2 and other devices.

My point is just to say that's is a pity to let this device without any LineageOS rom update as it is known an old but good device, quite largely spread (and hence many users), the TWRP image is also available. I mean, there is everything we need, many prerequisite to make support of Galaxy Tab 2 not so hard. That's why I was looking for co-maintainers so that we can together still support this device.

I'd like to sum up what is the situation of the Galaxy Tab 2 (7" and 10").

• TWRP for p5110 (Galaxy Tab 2 10" Wifi) is discontinued but it has been continued as unified TWRP espressowifi. This espressowifi version of TWRP works on: p3110, p3113, p5110 and p5113.
• LineageOS is no more available as an official build for Galaxy Tab 2, but there is some builds that has been made, up to recently, by @Android-Andi
• this page from Android-Andi is proposing LineageOS 11, 13 and 14.1
• @curiousrom preferred to stick to LineageOS 13 as he found LineageOS 14.1 too laggy

I personaly be willing to continue support LineageOS for Galaxy Tab. Eventually officially if possible. If anyone volunteer to join me in this task, please tell me!

 

[Android-Andi]

If you like to continue official you'll have a lot of fun:

https://github.com/LineageOS/charter/blob/master/device-support-requirements.md

Since LineageOS 15 is out I bet there won't be any devices added to an older OS version (14.1) for official builds.

As you are already providing LineageOS 14.1 for Galaxy Tab, I was planning to add Galaxy Tab support for LineageOS 15. Do you think it is not reasonable?

Feel free, source is open. On Oreo a lot changed which doesn't make it easy to get it booting and in a working state. You can't get JellyBean driver and blobs to work forever. Old DDK. Kernel side there's a bunch of backports needed. And so on.

Nougat doesn't even work as it should (lot of lag, RIL needs a workaround because it's not properly fixed) I am not sure if it's the right way to jump on a more complicated base yet. But feel free.

To keep this thread for what it was made for: development related questions, answers and news for LineageOS14.1,
Lineage15 discussions don't need to be made here, feel free to open a thread in general section.

Some of us already tried an os15 rom. OK, it works, but that's the only thing I can say. The tab became very, very laggy, unexpected reboots an not enough memory. So if the only thing you want is telling your friends that your old tab is charged with OS15, OK. But if you want to use also your tab as a daily tab, try another ROM. My experience, and I have some, is that the best ROM for our device is an Android 6. And I prefer RR 6.x.....

Thread cleaned... If you want to discuss something other than LOS 14.1, do so elsewhere...

Hello,

it would be interesting how stable or unstable in hours your installation is, and which apps you have installed and in use. For my case, mainly firefox (or its pedant, waterfox), telekom mail, german wetteronline, both ebay apps, and some more.

The attached screenshot shows a normal case for my tab 2.


Regards

@Android-Andi
Superb Work!
But still much unstable
Gapps frequently crash
Random reboots
