[sooperior]

I saw that the one who created the Custom Rom updated it on January 2nd 2021, nels83. Has anyone already tried it?

I did and (for a basic usage) it's working ok

@nels83 Please fix this bug, Bluetooth earphone microphones aren't working! I tried normally recording sound by having a Bluetooth earphone connected to the tab, I can hear audio, but when I record my sound my audio from the microphone of the Bluetooth earphone isn't inputting in the rom! Therefore I tried to join Teams calls (the default mic is bad!), but when I have my Bluetooth earphone I can hear other members in the call but when I talk they can't hear me. This isn't a Teams issue, it's a rom issue, please look into it! @nels83

I don't use Magisk so I can't judge if it's an issue.

Hi, thanks for the development on this device. I'm about to install this rom on the device of a friend (he did not tell me which version he had so i downloaded the 20210102 version for all 3 of them. There are a couple of things i did not understand:

how can i transfer the files to flash in the tablet if i shall not use the sdcard to avoid bootloops? (obviously i cannot copy them in the internal memory before the flash because that partition is going to be formatted).

Also i was not able to use the search functions of xda to find were in this thread someone explains how to install microg instead of the opengapps. What is the procedure and were do i find the files? Do these microg conflict with the microg installed with vanced?

thanks a lot,
knosso

The microg guide is probably outdated now but if you have any problems hit me up MicroG Guide (took so long to find it I should have just written a new one)

Also as for the SD card, flash the ROM from your SD card and once it has finished go back to the main screen of twrp. Then pull out the SD card and go to reboot.

It's when the tablet tries to boot with the SD card installed it may fail (I have personally never experienced this but a lot of people reported it)

I installed rom+gapps but have a lot of artifacts playing youtube kids
what can I do?

Massive thanks for the reply. I'll try to install the microG as you described and report if any changes are needed. Also thanks for the SD card tip.

Edit: the zip in your guide seems not available anymore. Do you happen to have a local copy of it that you can share or can you please point me to the updated link?

Also one of the repositories seems down (https://fdroid.bromite.org/fdroid/repo/). What is it used for? can i proceed without it?

unfortunatly all android file host links lead to a "no miror found" for this device, and for different developer .

It means than for this device, no recent files at all

Anyone saved a recent version of the rom and would like to share it ?


I managed to find a cutom recovery ....

Thx

Actually that is a fake error. I guess that some sort of timeout is happening. I simply kept reloading the tab until eventually it found a mirror in Virginia which is far far far away.

that was a hell of a tip !

Jdownloader takes care by itself of the retrying work, and I got the files. As usual this soft solves an issue with rom downloading. I should use it ever.
thx for the tip so !

This may have been said before, but this is the latest version not the one on the thread: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=17248734326145707852
The dev updated it, it's unclear if he fixed other stuff other than newer security patch.

By the way, anyone knows the main differences beettween the builds of this same rom by 2 dev:

@nels83 (link above), and @dpdudek (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682909910), which is not that old also (august 2020).

As I have 2 GT-P5210, I did install one of each, I'll test them side to side. But I'm not sure of the hardware of both!

Hello, the one from @dpdudek is probably old security patch because on the title it says 20200808 = 2020 08 08 , and the one from @nels83 is newer because it says 20210102 = 2021 01 02. Security wise, as in what @dpdudek edited in that code, is unclear. But nels should really update this thread, looks like he has the tab that he updated, bug fixes are worth it my friend @nels83!

I'm using magisk with this rom...

Which version are you using?
Magisk v22 seems pretty wonky for me, it takes up to 5 minutes to load the app, and the app seems to often not not see the framework, when its in that state i can get root access, but not reliably. All i really want is tb to work reliably and adaway, systemless hosts preferred but i dont really care about safetynet at this stage

i just want to point some dates out for nels's activity. the last post he put up was in april of 2019, was last seen jan 10, and updated the rom 8 days prior

at this point activity from them is unsure, but i hope as well that the ROM is updated.

Hi everyone,

Sorry for being away this whole time but, as many of you I guess, a lot happened this year...
As some of you have noticed, I uploaded a new ROM. However it was not meant to go live yet. It was just an update for a friend and I didn't have time to handle the work following a thread update ;-)

Now that I am more available, I can tell you that this upload should fix microphone and wifi. If some of you have time to test it while I'm updating to the latest security patch, could tell us if it works ? I plan to update the thread with beta 6 (with march 2021 security patch) in the next days.

Downloads are here : https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=169815

Thanks to everyone for keeping this thread alive !
