Hey buddy. I hope you are doin but it is crashing a lot the graphics. If I want to use amazon prime video, Disney + or Netflix. It reproduced the video but the image is like crashing. No colors match and is weird. do you know what' should I do. I can send you an image if you want.
I installed this OS in my samsung tab 10.1 8010 Update 23.12.2020:

  • Build for N8000 and fixed RIL
  • Further ported palm rejection
  • Fixed some graphic crashes
  • Fixed some kernel crashes
  • Removed dangerous recovery flash option
  • More small things... It was a long day
I'm really struggling these day's with AFH, all servers are very slow.
As soon as I managed this, the links will be updated.

And dont forget, if you had BitGapps installed, you must flash them afterwards,
otherwise it wont boot.

Great job keeping u are doing @html6405 to keep these old devices alive. I want to use mine as a navigation device while sailing. Unfortuneately, I can't seem to establish a USB data connection to flash the new software. The cables are fine, tablet is charging well, but no USB data connection is established, whatsoever (checking with lsusb). Is it possible that the Samsung Knox software on this used device is preventing data connections (e.g. in Odin mode) as a safety measure?

I would be happy about any suggestions, been on this one for full three days already. More here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-root-firmwares-usb-debugging-locked.4217543/

Update 15.07.2021:
  • Included permissions for signature spoofing
  • Disabled wallpaper zoom ( lowered max scale for the wallpaper when it's zoomed in )
  • Increased heap for the main camera, now the picture bug should be eliminated (hopefully, wasn't able to reproduce it)
  • Inserted parted for repartitioning, this will be necessary for most GSI's in future (just a single process, it will persist).
  • Inserted a fixgsi script, with this we are able to boot up most android 11 GSI's (but most of them will not be stable without my patches).
This update is for n8000 and n8010 only, via OTA and AFH.

Then it could be, that your dock connector is faulty.
"Dock connector" being the 30 pin "female" USB interface/controller on the tablet side? I will look to have it replaced and try again. The cable with "male" 30 pin plug seems not to be the issue, tried a brand new original one.
No, at least the download mode should work.
Thank you for that info. Makes me confident to keep trying. I did some research on the device's history and the previous owner said it should not have been specially security hardened. So I'll focus on replacing the connector and keep trying. Can't wait to have your brilliant work breathing new life into this old paper weight tablet. :)

Hello html6405!
First of all, thank you for your work! you are keeping this device alive! I got one recently and I tried both LineageOS 16.0 Android 9 and LineageOS 18.1 Android 11 on N8020. I am writing you to report about some of the problems that I found. I hope this will be helpful for you and for other users :)
Let's start with LineageOS 16.0 Android 9: I used it for about a month. I never faced any problem but, I found that Bluetooth does not work. The device was not able to read the Bluetooth address and therefore the device was unable to discover any other device.
LineageOS 18.1 Android 11: I didn't have time to try it for a long time because the device is restarting. it reaches the operation system, you can work a bit on it and after a minute or a few minutes, it restarts again. Still, it was enough time to check the Bluetooth. It works but I found that the IMEI is gone. the device was not able to read it.

Trying to solve the mentioned problems I always had a fresh install. Each time I flashed the device with an N8020XXUDNI2_VFGDNJ2 rom before installing LineageOS 16 or 18.1.
I hope there is a solution to these problems or at least this information would help to find one!
Thanky you again!

Hello Everyone & a HUGE, Big, Big Thank You to @html6405 ,

Awesome work my friend! I hadn't upgraded this tablet since Nougat 7. The thread I was in here at XDA where Don Carnage had been posting ROM's but there was no further updates for the GT-N8013 for a long time. I thought Nougat was the last ROM for this device until I stumbled into this thread.

After seven years of rooting, flashing, testing/troubleshooting Roms for the LG G2 running Android 11...WOW! "a Big Thank You to @aleasto " and also the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8013, I could not pass up a great deal on a new Samsung S21+ (Verizon). So I am the proud owner of the Phantom Silver model. So far the phone is awesome. Really like it! SMOKING HOT!!! :cool:

My intent when getting this new phone was to enjoy it for a while and take a break from seven years of rooting, flashing, testing/troubleshooting Roms. Looks like that is not the case. :unsure:


So as far as the GT-N8013 and Android 11, Coming from Android Nougat 7 anf flashing the lineage-18.1-20210715-HTML6405-n8010 (N8013) it seems to be running well.

TESTING:

* GT-N8013
* lineage-18.1-20210715-HTML6405-n8010
* BiTGApps-arm-11.0.0-R17_signed
* TWRP to 3.5.2_9-1
* Magisk 23.0 (23000) (21)
* Does Not Pass Safetynet - fail (Response payload validation failed)


COMING FROM NOUGAT 14.1, FLASHED LATEST 18.1 ROM + UPDATED TWRP TO 3.5.2_9-1

In TWRP Recovery - Wipe > Advance Wipe >

Wiped:

* Davlik / ART Cache
* Cache
* System
* Vendor
* Data

FLASHED

* lineage-18.1-20210715-HTML6405-n8010 (works for the N8013 as well)
* BiTGApps-arm-11.0.0-R17_signed

* Rebooted and did initial setup (y)


FOR ROOT:

* Rebooted to Recovery
* Flashed Magisk-v22.0.zip
* Rebooted System and updated the Magisk App to 23.0 (23000) (21)
* Installed BusyBox - Install failed.

Error Message - "It looks like the installation of busy box was not successful. Try installing to a different location, that may resolve the issue."


If your BusyBox installation fails, use this method:

Close that Error Message

Run BusyBox again

Where it says "BusyBox will be installed to" Tap on " /system/bin " select "Custom Path" and change path to " /data " and Tap Install. BusyBox installed successfully.

* Install & Run Root Checker - Result: ROOTED (y) 😊

Thanks for your report,

my n8020 does not reboot all the time, but for sure the ROM is not stable and there is no RIL so far.

Hmm Bluetooth is working with LOS16.0, were you trying in both cases the most recent version?
BiTGApps-arm-11.0.0-R17_signed
I would recommend open gapps, because bitgapps are causing a bootloop after an OTA update.
Where it says "BusyBox will be installed to" Tap on " /system/bin " select "Custom Path" and change path to " /data " and Tap Install. BusyBox installed successfully.
I would recommend systemless busybox (magisk).
Safetynet does pass with magisk hide enabled.

I read your post on Page 1 where you said to download BitGapps Directly (from the link you provided), that is why I downloaded BitGapps. LOL!

I had both BusyBox and Magisk installed.
Magisk hide was not enabled


TESTING:

* GT-N8013
* lineage-18.1-20210715-HTML6405-n8010
* BiTGApps-arm-11.0.0-R17_signed & open_gapps-arm-11.0-nano-20210720
* TWRP to 3.5.2_9-1
* Magisk 23.0 (23000) (21)
* Does Not Pass Safetynet - fail (Response payload validation failed)


So after several days of testing the following:

* lineage-18.1-20210715-HTML6405-n8010 & BiTGApps-arm-11.0.0-R17_signed
* lineage-18.1-20210715-HTML6405-n8010 & open_gapps-arm-11.0-nano-20210720
* nano would not install, error 70

HERE ARE SOME FINDINGS AND RESULTS:

* Screen was doing all kinds of crazy stuff. thought it might be related to video/graphics drivers or even a hardware issue but all of a sudden appeared after installing the latest ROM. screen was going blank and colors would appear with lines all over and was unusable. then the screen started to look like it was failing. It looked like it was burning. (See picture 1)

pic 1.jpg


* lagging and choppiness
* crashes and restarts
* crashes and shuts down
* Sometimes when trying to Restart the tablet it shutsdown and does not restart
* when connected in file sharing mode, crashes and app failure
* freezing/black screen
* UI freezes/Locks Up
* While trying t o transfer files to the tablet from a Windows 10 computer I would see multiple versions of the storage drives (see picture 2)

pic 2a.jpg


APPS:

* apps install but will not open until reboot
* apps install but will not run even after reboot
* apps crash
* I have the same apps installed on my Samsung Galaxy S21+ running Adroid 11
* When going through the intial setup using OpenGapps when you try and connect to a Wifi network you will receive a error message saying "could not connect to the network". then you hit the back button and it will show you that you are indeed connected to your Wifi network. At this point you click on your Wifi network and initial setup will continue.

Essentially as you can see the N8013 and this latest ROM was unusable with many issues so I reverted back to my Lineage Nougat ROM and all works well and no video / screen issues.

Sorry, but when I've published this ROM, there were only BitGapps available, so we had no other choice.

This is the screen lightning bug, I was not able to eliminate it in the driver so far.

This is crazy and not the case on my PC with my devices.

Thanks for testing, but this ROM is still in alpha stage and I do not recommend it for a daily use,
LOS 16.0 is already stable ;).

What do you mean? Open gapps? They are also working on LOS 18.1, we all are using them.

I mean the problems listed at #391, does they occur on Lineage OS 16.0, purely asking him, why it is necessary to go back to old EOL nougat ROM.
If those bugs only not occur on nougat or older, that will be kinda strange and worth discussing.
i.e: this will be an interesting case:
Versionworks or not
Lineage 16, 18no
Nougat, lollipop and stockyes

Nice, it in theory should work on all devices, just see if any special case of note 10.1 that @IT Tech have. Lineage os 16 stable should work for him, otherwise that is a special case.

I came from Nougat 7.1.1 so that was my "go to" ROM just to get me back up and running again. I reverted back to a ROM that worked to help me troubleshoot the issues I had with the latest 18.1 ROM

    Hi,

    here you can find my preview build version of LineageOS 18.1 for our Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 devices.
    At first I want to thank @forkbomb444, @rINanDO, @ChronoMonochrome for all your work which helped me a lot to bring this up.

    This is a early BETA build, so don't install it if you want a completley stable rom and don't report my already listet bugs!

    I'm working nearly every day on our N80xx devices, because LOS18 runs much smoother than LOS17.1, I will continue here.

    When you have BitGapps installed, you have to reflash them after every update!

    Here you can see how far everything is working for now.

    N8000, N8010, N8013, N8020:
    • Boot
    • Audio
    • Bluetooth
    • Graphics
    • Cameras
    • Sensors
    • Wifi
    • GPS
    • USB
    • Video playback (HW/SW)
    • Tethering via USB, WIFI and Bluetooth
    • consumerir transmitter
    • Stylus with gestures and hovering icon
    • sec keyboard dock
    • RIL on N8000 (mobile connection)
    • much more...
    • Screen Cast, Chromecast did work, Samsung TV not
    • Main camera sometimes can't take a picture (reopen app or lower resolution)
    • Random reboots
    • N8020: RIL works 90%
    • Screen lightning bug, nearly eliminated
    • SD-Card can't be formatted as internal storage, this will cause a bootloop
    You could use a gps.conf from https://app.box.com/s/w57s1v1n3hie7l5lk28i for your location and replace /system/etc/gps.conf.
    Or you try GPS Server Optimizer app for a faster 3D fix.
    For both methods you need root rights.
    If you are going to use Gapps,
    here you can download them:
    Open Gapps
    For the others, you can use microG in future.

    Do you like my work?
    Than you can simply hit the thanks button and consider to spend me a coffee or a beer,
    I'm doing this in my free time and it also costs a lot of money to buy hardware.

    This ROM is alpha, nobody can force me to bring any updates,
    I'm doing this in my freetime, so be thankful if you get something.

    I will proceed here as soon as I will have time, I didn't have LOS16.0 completed and I'm working hard to provide you a stable ROM.
    LOS 16.0 is our major version, on LOS18.1 is much more work todo and much more framework hackings to get LOS18.1 as good compatible as possible.

    I'm overtaking many things I make for LOS16.0 to 18.1, but this take's time.
    I hate it if I get stressed, so please be patent or do it by your own,
    this takes really much time, debugging, try things and so on.
