[ROM][6.0.1] Android 6 - Marshmallow (August 5, 2016) [T700/T705/T800/T805]



Android 6.0 Marshmallow coming to a Tab S 8.4/10.5 WiFi & LTE !
This ROM is for T700, T705, T800 and T805.

It is directly based on vanilla Google Android sources. Real AOSP.

Download

Download GApps
  • OpenGApps (Tested with open_gapps-arm-6.0-nano-20160723)
    Do not use Stock or higher. Nano is recommended.

Download SuperSU
  • SuperSu 2.76 (Tested with UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323)

Prerequisites
  • TWRP 2.8.6.2 or higher. I always use @ashyx newest builds (TWRP builds by @ashyx)
  • Applied bootloader update, e.g. by
    • flashing the stock 5.0(or higher) samsung rom or
    • by applying bootloader directly with odin (Link).

Instructions
  1. Flash TWRP 2.8.6.2 or higher using odin.
  2. Reboot into recovery. Go into wipe menu. Select "Advanced Wipe". Check
    • Dalvik Cache
    • System
    • Cache
    • Data
    and wipe them. Don't reboot just yet.
  3. Go into install.
  4. Flash aosp-XXX.zip
  5. On initial installation it is sometime necessary to Reboot to Recovery. You may try skipping this step if you get GAPPS errors on start. (See Note)
  6. Flash GAPPS.zip
  7. Flash SuperSU.zip
  8. Reboot to System
  9. Check Settings->System Updates (Creates /sdcard/OpenDelta/FlashAfterUpdate)
  10. Copy SuperSu and Gapps zip to /sdcard/OpenDelta/FlashAfterUpdate (If directory does not exist, create) so that they are automatically applied after OTA update. Else your system will be unusable after an OTA!

Issues
  • No major issues

Tips'N'Tricks
  • Hearthstone and serveral other Unity games: Enable 4x MSAA in development options else it won't work
  • If you install Gapps after the ROM has been booted for the first time you either need to wipe data or manually delete /data/system/users/0/runtime-permissions.xml and reboot. Without this Gapps will crash constantly. This is due to the new permissions-system in M.

So no baseband at the moment not even wifi. Probably have to wait for the official update for that.
Good stuff though. :thumbup:
WiFi works fine. I tested 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.

Will you ever do something for T700?
Yes, I plan to support T700/T705/T800 as soon as the major issues are solved on T805.

Thx for the info regarding SuperSU.

Now only GApps is missing. Quite annoying without.
Tried building my own but always keyboard force closes...

Found these in the Nexus 4 thread. Will try in the evening and see if any of them work..

[]

Edit: the first link works.. Can install apps from play store after booting into the rom..
Yayyyyyyy!!!!

One problem that I noticed, the home button works to wake up the device but does not take you to the home screen..
Playing around with the build now.. Super smooth BTW..

Edit 2:

The gapps I posted the link to were buggy.. This one works, all previous issues I had were the gapps.. This one has no problems..

It's working fine for me.. No crashes.. Clean install?? Check if play services has all permissions granted in the settings.. Someone had a similar problem over the the N4 thread, this solved it..

Also one more thing I forgot to mention, I used the SuperSU beta 2.51 for root.. It's working good..

Ashyx, do you think that using a combination of Odin and Flashfire you could upgrade a stock 5.0.2, rooted (Knox untripped) device using the combination of flash files in this post? I have a T800 so cannot try it myself. I'm just try to stretch the rooted untripped paradigm a little further.

Highly doubt it. Marshmallow will almost certainly require a new kernel, which will always trip Knox. It is as if you tried flashing CM12 right now.
