[ROM][DISCONTINUED] LineageOS 17.1 for Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e (LTE)

[bgcngm]

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10 (Q), 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.

Base source code is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to the project, please visit our Gerrit Code Review.

Try flashing it with ADB sideload on LineageOS recovery instead of TWRP: lineage-17.1-20201107-recovery-gts4lv.img (https://download.lineageos.org/gts4lv)

in Odin i only can install .tar or .tar.md5. the lineage recovery is img. so my question how to install this lineage recovery. I have read the wiki, but maybe im too old with my 52 years to understand. sorry.

If you want to keep using TWRP you'll have to switch to that one https://dl.twrp.me/gts4lv.

So thrilled to see this finally coming! Thanks!

My first experiences: among all Samsung devices that I ever owned, this one was by far the most complicated to achieve bootloader unlock and install TWRP - but after 1,5h I finally managed it.

Installing lineage-os via TWRP worked as expected, but ... after 1 min. booting with lineage logo the device stops and reboots into recovery. Anyone got an idea why?

That's what you get for either not formatting the data or installing twrp app ^.^

I got my tablet last month and will like to try the LOS at the weekend.
If I read the Los wiki correctly I can flash/sideload without rooting. If that's correct, can I root after setting up the ROM?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can root afterwards, if you'd like.

About the installation-howto and just for curiosity:
I know the procedure from other Samsung devices but what is the VBMeta image here? And do I have to use exactly this referenced Odin? Is it patched somehow?
Are all 4 speakers are supported?
Thanks to the devs providing this to us!

The VBMeta image they link here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/gts4lv/install is for wifi.

Use this: https://dl.twrp.me/gts4lv/

I don't know if it's me but I feel Lineage os it's faster than stock samsung.

i installed twrp, formatted the data and deleted the cache and the system under "advanced delete". when restarting, the lineageos symbol comes up, loads for a while and then boots back into the twrp. what am I doing wrong?
