[buddhay]

Resurrection Remix the ROM based on Lineage, Slim, Omni and some original code. see http://www.resurrectionremix.com/

for
Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 Wi-Fi (2016) - SM-T713 (gts28vewifi)
Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 LTE (2016) - SM-T719 (gts28velte)
Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 Wi-Fi (2016) - SM-T813 (gts210vewifi)
Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 LTE (2016) - SM-T819 (gts210velte)

have fun, no guarantees, there's always the sun (for at least some time from now)

Requirements:
- might need to update to latest stock beforehand, reports indicate that eg. T713 bootloader needs to be updated to version T713XXU2BQCO (or newer)
- twrp 3.2+ (https://twrp.me/Devices/Samsung/)
- backup everything before install to be on the safe side
- wipe system, data when upgrading from another ROM

Install:
- flash RR-O-v6.x-<date>-<model>-Unofficial.zip in TWRP
- flash gapps (arm64 8.1) if you want them (see Gapps note below) - https://opengapps.org/
- flash Magisk 17.2+ if needed - https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
- wipe both Dalvik Cache and Cache

Gapps note:
Google apps should be installed via recovery immediately after installing ROM.
If you reboot into ROM before installing Google apps, you might need to factory reset and then install them again, otherwise expect FCs. Deleting storage (in Settings/Apps) for Google Play Services, Store, Google Services sometimes helps.

Not working:
T719/T819 - no SIM card detected, reason so far unknown

Known issues:
- brightness slider has no effect when auto is on

Thanks:
@LuK1337, @luca020400, the teams of LineageOS, Resurrection Remix, Omni, Slim, @Icewyng, @orfik building RR 6.x for T713/T813 previously

Wanna do it yourself, here is how i did it:
1. setup build env on a debian box as described here (via scripts) https://github.com/ResurrectionRemix/platform_manifest#refer-to-scripts-to-setup-build-env
2. created build folder, repo init, repo sync as described here https://github.com/ResurrectionRemi...r-where-the-rr-repo-will-be-stored-and-synced
3. (new) updated attached roomservice.xml contains all modified repos. simply place it in .repo/local_manifests/
continue with step 6.
3. added
.repo/local_manifests/roomservice.xml
(attached) to make the device known
4. ran repo sync again to include repos for this device
5. added device/samsung/gts210vewifi/rr.(dependencies,mk) (see github device trees) to RRify the just downloaded device tree
6. setup ccache https://github.com/ResurrectionRemix/platform_manifest#setting-up-ccache
7. tune jack https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/gts210vewifi/build#configure-jack-1
8. init environment

source build/envsetup.sh

9. check if device is there

breakfast gts210vewifi

and finally
10. start build

Frequently asked questions - FAQ

Q: How's idle time battery life?
Does this ROM have the same battery drain (when idle) issue as current Lineage builds?
the ROM is lineage 15.1 based and has no custom kernel, so if there is a drain it most likely exist here as well.
reports show that having a t813 laying around it loses maybe 10-15% a day. you can do the math.

No exynos device i see. Is really that hard developing for them, i know

Thank you friend for providing this for us.

I haven't yet flashed a ROM on this tablet, mainly due to battery usage concerns. However that's not based on first hand knowledge.

Cheers

on which device?

 

[Moe5508]

Thank you very much indeed...nice to jump to Oreo on the T819 device...

 

[LDBAKE]

Thank you for this. It has been awhile since I tried RR. This one is exceptionally smooth and quick. Only thing I've noticed that isn't working (for me) is whenever I close up the cover on my T813 the screen doesn't shut off. I have to tap the Power button to turn it off. Not a big deal, just wondering if there is a setting somewhere that I'm missing??...like I said, I haven't used RR in a while, and maybe this was an issue before...I just don't remember.

what's your device?

yeah, for some weird reason is FlipFlap, the LineageOS app for this, not included per default. will include it in some next build and you can report back if it enables the cover on/off. check the changelog i'll mention it.

Hmm... this looks really interesting, actually I think this is great news for T819 owners (very little for us around so far).

Can anyone please confirm that phone, mic and bluetooth work fine in the T819?

T719?

not intentionally, no. can't check it though, no lte version at hand.

is it missing as Quick Settings button only or also in the Settings app?

it is missing in both locations. i am on a workaround now using WIFI direct and pdanet+ app.

 

[acornkenya]

The hotspot option is unavailable both in the quick settings and the main settings. Oh, and SIM cards are not detected. My tablet is a T719.

Apart from these bugs, this build is excellent; snappy, with a million and one configuration options, which I particularly like.
