[ROM] [OFFICIAL- 8.1] [T813] OmniROM for Samsung Galaxy Tab S2

[Steve75402]

Just flashed the new weekly and now my tab only boots to recovery. Did a full wipe, same problem. Full wipe, last week's build, same problem. Even tried to restore back to stock, same problem.
I'm sure I've just made some stupid mistake, but can't figure out what I've done.

What's the battery life and charging time like with this rom in general? Been using that rr build lightning abandoned for the longest time now, and it doesn't seem to be the greatest, but maybe that's just a hardware thing.

You need the Android 7 bootloader and firmware. I guess you have not flashed that yet.

A couple of weeks ago I flashed one of the Android 7 ROMs with odin and assumed I got the bootloader and firmware then. Then a few days ago I flashed the 2170507 Omni Rom and it was working fine, though I couldnt seem to restore my apps with Titanium Backup. Then yesterday I got the latest weekly (20170514). It was after I flased that, that I kept booting into TWRP. So I must have done something​ wrong then.

Do I need to just flash the stock 7 again, or can I just flash the firmware and bootloader. Sorry to ask such a noob question. I've been flashing custom roms ever since I got my first Evo, but I seem to have gone brain dead on this one...

Success!!
I flashed the stock Android 7 ROM for my region with odin (wasn't available before), flashed TWRP and rooted from here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s2/development/twrp-3-0-2-1-galaxy-tab-s22016-sm-t713-t3390627), remembered to format data before factory reset and flashed latest Omni, Beans Gaps, and SuperSU; and now I'm back on Omni!
This has always been, by far, my favorite custom ROM. Thanks for all your hard work making it available for our device. And thanks everybody for being patient with my questions. Even this 52 year old Leadership Consultant can still learn new things
Now if someone could get it on the Note 5...

What gapps did you use? Try beans gapps. Opengapps are known to have some problems with the initial setup in some cases.

Good to hear you managed. You are never too old too learn.

Which firmware blobs should I flash? I read from the LineageOS thread that they are using DB3 from EU region. I'm still on DB1 from Germany firmware.

Also did you add in the MTP fix from LineageOS? I'm still on your 7th May build and yet to flash the latest one. I remember I have problems detecting the tablet on my Windows 10 PC.

Edit: Ok, so I dirty flashed the latest build, PC still doesn't detect the tablet internal storage and sd card.. Luk1337 fixed his MTP bug by this commit

https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/172516/

I wonder if this is the same case here.

We use the same blobs as LineageOS is using right now and that is from T813XXU2BQD1.

I have not added the MTP fix, but will do for the next weekly.

Look at my thread a little farther down - #105 - I finally got it to work.

 

[musashiken]

Flashed the latest build. PC connection is working again. All things working fine.

Wonderful Rom, best rom in general for the S2. My only issue is that I can't get MTP to work when connecting via USB to my pc. Is this a known bug?

Should work with the latest weekly.

It definitely works

Should work with the latest weekly.

It works perfectly now, thanks so much.

I don't know if this is a graphic driver issue, but on some games like SimCity the display is not optimised as it should. Everything is zoomed in because of the low resolution the game starts.
In stock nougat (7.0) all looks fine.

I have not encountered any issues yet, but then again I so not play games that much.

But perhaps there is something in the logs about that. So if you could send a logcat/dmesg when this happens I can have a look.

I'm on stock currently, testing a few things. But, I'll see if I habe the patience to go back to omni and take a log...

Here's a log with simcity loading with low resolution with today's build.
