Hello and welcome to my first try to write an HOW-TO, don't kill me for my epic skillz in that ^^
After a nice chat with @LuK1337 that weekend I was able to build my own LineageOS ROM for our beloved Tablet. It works very nice and thus I think it should be fine to pass my information over to you, but first:
If your tablet eats your cat after that, you are on YOUR OWN! It is NOT my fault and even less the fault of @LuK1337!!
What works:
- Everything the T813 LineageOS can do + working Vibration + LTE
What does not work:
- Phone audio
So, let's start:
First you have this nice howto for the T813: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/gts210vewifi/build which you follow down to and including the "Download the source code" step with two lil modifications:
After you finished the repo sync, which takes AGES on slower internet connections, you really should follow two optional steps below:
Next one is the following lines:
This loads the device specific stuff you will need now and prepares a step we need later.
Some useful and badly needed pickings from @LuK1337 are added when you next run this command:
Now once you are done:
In theory we now can go to bed and check for a result in $OUT after it finished build after about 6-10 hours. There waits a nice install ZIP for TWRP in there.
Flash on a T819 with FORMATTED and thus useable /data partition. This can and HAS TO be done in TWRP, too. If the file laments about a wrong bootloader, you should update your tablet to most recent official 7.0 firmware first!
Maybe this is a first start for ppl trying to tinker with T819 and add even more things to it, like Phone audio. At least is was a nice odyssey and the result I got was perfect. Have fun with your track down to the crazy self builders ^^
P.S. If you want GAPPS, load em here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/unofficial-opengapps-8-1/
Wanna update? SURE ^^ But be sure your picks are the most recent above.

- Install the build packages -> I had to "apt-get install python-minimal", too to make it work on Ubuntu 17.10.
- Initialize the LineageOS source repository -> Well, we don't want LOS 14.1, so the command we use here is:
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b staging/lineage-15.1
After you finished the repo sync, which takes AGES on slower internet connections, you really should follow two optional steps below:
- https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/gts210vewifi/build#turn-on-caching-to-speed-up-build
- https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/gts210vewifi/build#configure-jack (Especially needed if you have not that much RAM. I did not wanna listen to @LuK1337 telling me that the build EATS RAM for breakfast, but it's true! You NEED more than 12 GB of RAM even with that setting!!)
