New builds are up with security patch level of 2020-08-05. See first post for more info.
And remember, it's always a good idea to do a TWRP backup before installation.
Hi Klaerchen,
can we be of hope, that you will continue to provide updated builds with new security patch levels for this great ROM?

Thanks in advance

Haven't rooted in awhile , Samsung gave me a reason to ( micro sd as internal storage

So I was searching through YouTube videos and browsing through here trying to see if there's a way to accept my micro sd card as an internal hd. It looks as if it can be done via root then perhaps installing a rom? Is this accurate? Is the rooting of the device which makes this an option or is it in the room?

This was the reason why I decided to install this rom. The tablet was constantly running out of internal memory. I was able to install an app to move apps from internal memory to the SD card, but it was time consuming and it would need to be redone whenever the apps were updated from the play store.

This rom has the ability to use the sd card external memory to extend internal storage.

Will this work with SM-P585M (Tab A 10.1 2016)?
I want to try this rom, but the device model is different.
The first answer is NO, because it's a (at least slightly) different hardware.
But otherwise, the SoC is AFAIK the same, so it might be worth a try to build a variant for p585. If only kernel (defconfig) and device tree would be adjusted, then it might run, but the stylus ist then surely not supported.
However, I don't have a p585, so I couldn't do any tests.
Should I try to build it? Would anyone risk to test?

So do I understand it correctly: coming from the september version, I have to install the _migrate version first, and the regular one afterwards?
Or is it just for other ROMs?

Always ran Stock T580 ... I mainly do web browsing and a little non-GPU intensive gaming (puzzle games like The Room, etc)... any benefit for me to try this ROM (e.g. worth the hassle of resetting, etc)

thx for the input!

Nope. No need for _migrate if you come from the same rom. Just flash the regular .zip, along with gapps and magisk (if needed), in twrp.
