I've requested the kernel source from Samsung, but it usually takes at least a week for them to post that. Until then, the latest version posted should work as long as you're not using Magisk to boot through recovery to a CVG2 system image.

Great thread.

Tried the current version with an up to date tablet and ODIN fails to flash every time. Thankfully, easy to recover by flashing factory AP.

Can't wait for the newest version so I can finally install Lineage on this thing. Runs awful with the factory Samsung Bloat OS.

Any chance of getting an updated version to work with the latest Kernel? Looks like it's been posted by Samsung.

I can't get my tablet to flash TWRP or Lineage OS for the life of me.
Flashing TWRP with ODIN just fails constantly, flashing Lineage OS hangs at "recovery"

Any suggestions for me, please?

Odin flashes TWRP just fine for me. Please ensure that you've not triggered VaultKeeper, which will put you in a limbo state that looks like the bootloader is unlocked...but it isn't. Also, the OEM firmware has another Knox "feature" that will automatically restore stock recovery if you boot into OEM firmware without having run MultiDisabler first. You need to make sure that you reboot into TWRP from Odin directly and run that script first to disable both VaultKeeper and the stock recovery auto-restoration.

Turns out that for whatever reason, the "OEM Unlock" status wasn't appearing and forcing the recovery flash to fail.
After tinkering for hours I finally figured that one out and it flashed no problem. Thank you for the swift reply.
Now I'm just trying to get GAPPS working with your version of Lineage OS, lool.
It's been years since I've tinkered with Android and it's definitely bringing back some memories.

Dear Magendanz.

First I want to thank you for all dedicated time to work on this device!

I am using lineage-17.1-20200812-UNOFFICIAL-T510XXU3BTFN and updated TWRP to build twrp-3.5.1_9-0-T510XXU4BUA1-20210310 (updating img file from twrp) and applied magisk 25.2 (zip method, directly with TWRP): this combo works fine for me!

Tried to update twrp (and needed magisk 25.2 too) to twrp-3.6.2_11-1-T510XXU5CVG2-20220905.img (in twrp and later applied magisk zip) but this produced bootloop! Needed to revert back to twrp-3.5.1_9-0-T510XXU4BUA1-20210310 with Odin and reapplied magisk 25.2 again: device is working fine again.

Is it possible to use this newer twrp builds with this rom ? How ?

Thanks.

Generally, I haven't had a problem mixing and matching recovery kernels with bootloaders of the same major release, but in this case you're going from an Android 10 ROM (Bxxx) to an Android 11 ROM (Cxxx) and the older bootloader will be incompatible.

The workaround is just to update to the latest OEM firmware and then install the latest LineageOS 18.1 build (which includes the current TWRP recovery). Unfortunately, the OEM install will do a factory wipe, so make sure to back everything up first.

I have successfully flashed twrp-3.6.2_11-1-T510XXU5CVG2 with odin. I am trying to adb sideload gapps. When I am in TWRP's recovery I can see the device with the command adb devices as it lists

List of devices attached R52M****** recovery


When I go into Advanced > ADB Sideload The device disappears and I can not use ``adb sideload gapps.zip`` Any suggestions

Why not just copy the gapps.zip to the tablet and flash it with TWRP?

I am under the impression that I need to factory reset before I install gapps. This will delete the gapps.zip before I can install via twrp.

TWRP has the ability to copy files from the computer. A factory reset doesn't erase the download folder, but formatting the data partition does. You have two choices. Copy the gapps file to the external SD card, or use TWRP to copy it AFTER formatting the data partition.

How do I do this? Which buttons in TWRP?

You don't use buttons in TWRP. You use Windows Explorer. When you are in TWRP and plug the USB cable into a Windows computer, the tablet should show up as a drive in Windows Explorer.

It does show

the tablet should show up as a drive in Windows Explorer.

The tablet shows up with internal storage showing but there are no files or folder showing and I can not paste anything

That's because you formatted the data partition and erased all of the folders. Just copy to internal storage. Why don't you have an SD card installed.? It would sure make things easier.

edit: If you can't copy a file to Internal Storage, use TWRP's file management to create a folder in Internal storage. OR INSTALL AN SD card!!!! BTW, you do know that you need to install a ROM BEFORE installing gapps?

Thanks for helping. As it turns out Gapps was intalled in the rom. The only app that I can't install is google calendar. I don't have access to an sd card on hand unfortunately.
