[ROM][7.1.2][OFFICIAL] LineageOS 14.1 - SM-T217S

[deadman96385]

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 7.1.2 (Nougat), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.​

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

This thread is for Unofficial LineageOS 14.1 builds for lt02ltespr (SM-T217S). The following will not be supported here:
Custom kernels
Mods
Xposed

I don't support Xposed and any logcat which includes a Xposed module will be ignored. You're kindly invited to not report bugs if you:
Flashed a custom kernel
Installed or did mods from untrusted sources
Modified system files

Changelog:

Fixed the camera Thanks @DarkFrenzy
Removed unused drm blobs
Updated the time_daemon from shamu

4/10/17
Fixed glitchy power off animation Thanks @DarkFrenzy

Lowered the first boot time by enabling dexpreopt (The zip is a bit bigger but the old boot time was just unacceptable in my eyes)
Enabled some core system files to stay in ram so things should be a bit smoother.
Fixed adb not working unless you had selected mtp as the usb type

4/8/17
Initial release

 

[deadman96385]

I have redone the device trees from scratch based off of the galaxy s4 mini trees. @DarkFrenzy did the same thing awhile ago but he did not keep the history so it was useless to me. I also wanted to redo it because it lets me understand it better. My end goal is for it to become official but for that i have to fix the camera. But i have already upstreamed the kernel commits into the LineageOS msm8930-common kernel.

Thanks for still supporting our T217S. I'll give it shot and report.

Thanks for the Support for this device.
The camera is working fine in my RR build which I built with latest changes from Serrano tree which has some libc fix for camera.
For screen bug you have to set animate to true in device Samsung qcom repo like this https://github.com/FaArIsH/android_...mmit/51f24a5eed4203356c6669614f4dcbe979d74cc4

Yes its better to start from scratch then using my trees I m very lazy to use github that's y I don't use it the best way.
And also its best to give credits to @arco68 instead of me.

My trees are based on the latest serrano tree's i am not sure why the camera does not work. Thanks for the suggestion on the screen bug the next build will have it i merged in the samsung qcom repo.

Changelog:
Removed more unused drm blobs
Fixed backlight issues (Reverted back to the original liblights)
Update prima wlan firmware (This should fix 5ghz wifi let me know though i do not have one)

 

[Azrael.arach]

I am having a problem that everytime I try to install is comes up with error 7 and doesnt do anything in twrp.

Update:
Looks like I needed older version of twrp. It flashed waiting on bootup

 

[Azrael.arach]

Another problem, when doing the setup at first boot up I select new device and it crashes the wizard. I cant get past the wizard at all.

Use the gapps from this post rather than OpenGapps.

Hello! Is there a way to port this over to SM-T210(R) and if so, could anyone give me resources and tips to help this project?

Thanks!

No sadly the other variants of this tablet use a different cpu/gpu so a direct port is not possible

Is it safe to flash the wifionly.zip file onto this image so I can remove the annoying Sprint messages (I have no intention of ever using the mobile functionality)?
