Still using this device, works pretty ok for simple things. Glad this is still getting updates. Both upper corners (portrait orientation) on mine has the bubbles.

I just switched to this ROM and I'm liking it so far. Thanks!

I searched the thread and didn't see anything but I'm wondering if there is a way to change the battery percentage icon to text.

decided to come back to razor loves smoother lineage 14.1 rom. thanks for keeping the rom alive and a smooth experience.i did decript an its much smoothe then it being incripted wit hteh the past lineage 14.1 build. i did go all the way back to stock then decript then install the rom an gapps after doing a full wipe . the tablet is only used for media streaming and so just decided ot leave it at aht wit the build and the few media streaming apps tha ihve on teh device like nteflix, sports streaming apps and tv apps. my reasoing for coming back tothe rom is tha i tried to flash the 15.1 newe build with hw video playback fixed.every time i tried to flash the build, after a boot i would get the twrp pass word no matte what i tried for from a factory reset within twrp to a wipe within twrp nothing would resovle the issue. Which was a bit strange to tme as that has never happened no matter what version and custom roms i have had on my devices. again thanks to razor loves for keepin geh device alive with his builds. If razor loves does decide to build a lineage 15.1 build with hw video playback fix, we would all test for both wifi an lte versions .

I haven't been using mine lately.
Actually it mostly sits on the side along with my Pixel C.
I honestly do not know why I prefer my Nexus 10. :eek:


It's been awhile, and for testing purposes, I decided to clean flash my flounder.
Flash stock firmware, wipe, erase (and/or format) everything.
Install LineageOS and OpenGapps..

I end up with Lineage's Setupwizard instead of Google's SetupWizard.
Everything else seems to be installed and working, only Google SetupWizard failed to replace/run.

To complicate matters, I originally tried with an UNOFFICAL OpenGapps build.
The OpenGapps build gave me an odd error about SetupWizard SDK version below 29.
Thought that was the reason but, I get the same results using the official builds, both newer and older.


Just curious if this is normal for this device or something that needs to be taken up with OpenGapps ?
