Development [GSI][12] Unofficial LineageOS 19 SM-X200

[WackyHacky1]

Instructions:
Flash LineageOS for tab a8 sm-x200

• Format data from TWRP.
• And wipe all partitions, then just reboot into fastboot and flash your system image
• fastboot flash system system.img
  (system being lineage or google gsi or whatever)
• then once i have created the folder select the .xz or .gz or .img
• also a fastboot -w after flashing for additional wiping wouldn't hurt

make sure you have a unlocked bootloader and have twrp installed.

Is video still broken?
That (and anxiety about bricking it) are the only thing (s) holding me back from trying all of this.
Thanks

According to @Vinpinto this only affects android 13 ROMs and lineage 19 is on 12, so should be no issues. I'm going to give it a try this weekend.

Thanks @WackyHacky1 and @Vinpinto for sharing!!

Edit:
Can anyone who's had a successful flash comment on any performance improvements? I want to update assuming that changing apps, navigating ui etc. will become more responsive

I've only noticed improved performance with vanilla aosp GSI and google GSI android 12 and 13 images, lineageos it's a bit laggy.
I'm working on my own recipe for a Pixel-like rom, I'll share when I get any progress

Agreed. Reckon I will wait patiently until they support android 12

Has anybody tried this on a X205? Does mobile connectivity still work?

Confirmed working on SM-X205. LineageOS is choppy/laggy as hell for me, so I went with phhusson AOSP with GApps. Running buttery smooth.
