[ROM][SM-P905][UNOFFICIAL] Lineage 18.1 | Android 11 | 20210509

[Valera1978]

I'm not responsible for any damage to your device of any sort.
By flashing this you take responsibility of anything that happens.
Process at your own risk!

This firmware was developed for the p905. It doesn't apply to the p905v at this time because it's bootloader locked and a custom recovery isn't possible.

If you want to check firmware - please make backup. Better to store all partitions, at least efs and may be modem.

Instructions
1. Install custom recovery
2. Download the zip(s) - firmware and Google Apps additional package (optional)
3. Backup all partitions (it least efs) and store somewhere - it need to do - because you can loose imei
4. Full wipe all
5. Flash firmware and gapps
6. Uncheck Update Lineage Recovery alongside the OS option during start wizard

Work
almost all

P.s. for BiTGApps: Chrome workaround with gapps: Chrome should be a part of system app in Android R (11) but we install it as user app, which break sign-in and sync in chrome. To fix this, allow contacts permission for chrome. Restart chrome and you can add your google account.

Root
Install latest magisk (21.1+) from canary channel: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/tag/v21.1

Recovery
Use official 3.0.2-0 version from: https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxynotepro122qcom.html
or use my twrp version: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-pro-12/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-1-0-t3684802

[dan435]

Thank you Valera 1978!

PS. I have "Serial console enabled Performance is impacted. To disable, check bootloader" message.

Today I saw that BT is not working at all

 

[Mad07]

BT is already crashed in the last 17 Version from 2020/12 several times. Maybe a common issue?

 

[mattgod69]

A build for the P900 would be great! Many thanks to the developers for keeping this get tablet alive and better than ever!

 

[adairfolmer]

Valera1978, gratitude for keeping our Tablet alive. How is the S-Pen working in this ROM?

 

[Energixia]

Well, I think to try tomorrow to install it! Good work like always Dev

What would I necessarily have to do to Port this to p900

 

[Energixia]

I tried this for a little time. For me it is laggy too much. It's better at the moment Lineage 17.1 even if I need to find the version with palm rejection working because in the last (for me) not work.

 

[GalaxyHenry]

I tried this rev. but I immediatly rolled back to 17.1
So buggy and slow. I hope in next updates

What would I necessarily have to do to Port this to p900

Any progress?

 

[Energixia]

Hi! I flashed the new version and this is perfect, not slow like the other!

I would want use Duo app but from the other side not hear me. If I do a simple video with camera app I can hear my voice. What problem can be???

Thanks a lot

Edit: I found this problem in lineage 17.1 too. Maybe there is some settings that I don't know?!

Edit2: If u want call via skype, duo or other things just use earphones... what a bug lol!

 

[bemanet]

Tanks a lot Valera1978 for the New Update...

 

[pointbob]

No possibility with p900?

 

[alantay11]

New build's great, much smoother than 17.1 and no crashes or other issues so far

Edit: Found out that the lag is somehow caused by me changing the wallpaper. Not sure why since the wallpaper is not live and is only 1920x1200 so it shouldn't cause lag.

Also, system UI keeps stopping when trying to enter settings from the notification shade

 

[Spere]

Too bad can't download it (neither of them). There seems to be some kind of cooldown or something on Drive. Can anyone confirm?

Edit: Got it installed. Seems to be super smooth. Thank you very much for your work OP. You are da real MVP, this tabled is old but you keep this alive!
