Same here, 8704F running lancebuks' last release (Sept 6th, 2020)Main camera and flash light work fine on my 8704F.
Working fine on my device.Primary camera is not working for me. Is anyone else facing the same issue?
Ok. Thanks a lot for the confirmation. Not sure what's the issue with mine. I also tried installing pixel os based on Android 9, same issue.Working fine on my device.
Is VoLTE working for you ? Plz help cause not working for me.I followed the instructions as is from the OP in this thread and also from this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...f-v-tb-x704l-f-tb-8504x-f-tb-x304l-f.3664407/
The only difference was to use the latest TWRP (3.4.0: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-twrp-3-4-0-0-for-lenovo-tab4-8-plus.4134151/) and it worked fine for me.
Yes volte is working fine. Jio (India) is working as well, in case that was also your question.Is VoLTE working for you ? Plz help cause not working for me.
I installed two times ... Then why it's only with me ... What steps u followed ? Plz help if I am making any silly mistake.Yes volte is working fine. Jio (India) is working as well, in case that was also your question.
I have no idea sir, I myself am a noob. I myself am facing issues with primary camera and flash. Sorry, can't be of much help.Should I dirty flash ?
Any help or suggestion here will be appreciated. Many thanksPro and learned devs. Any help will be appreciated. My Primary Camera and Flashlight are not working.
TB8704X, LTE 3GB/16GB variant.
I have tried everything that I could:
- wiped clean all the data and re-flashed multiple ROMs - this one, Pixel OS (Android 9)
- removed my SD card that I was using as extended storage since mine is a 16GB version, wiped the data and flashed ROM again.
- Flashed without Magisk
- Disabled access to Camera from all the apps accept the system app.
None of this worked.
- 3rd Party Camera apps also do not detect primary camera but just the front one.
- 3rd party flashlight app showed the message: your flashlight and camera are in use with another app.
I dont have a windows PC so could not flash the stock ROM back on the tablet to test using QFIL. But I clearly remember that Primary Camera and Flashlights were working with stock.
Any help with an alternate way to flash stock ROM via Ubuntu will be great.
Many thanks in advance.
Please let me know if any additional information or logs can help

1/25/21 Some additional information that may serve to focus the problem. If I plug my headphone into the device and then attempt to return to the internal speaker by unplugging the headphones, I hear nothing. The headphone jack is still functioning but the internal speaker will not. I have to reboot the device to return the function to the internal speaker. If Bluetooth cannot access the audio data stream because it is routed to the DAC supplying the internal speaker or the headphones, that could cause the diver to crash.I also have a "v" and am experiencing the same problems with Bluetooth. I have a clumsy workaround in that I plug a stand-alone LE Bluetooth transceiver into the earphone jack and by-pass the built-in Bluetooth.
As the other Tab 4 8 Plus variants don't exhibit this problem, I will hazard a guess that the image file that is necessary for the "v" to boot has set a flag incorrectly or overwritten an environmental variable necessary for the Bluetooth to function. Also, any attempt to load a third-party Bluetooth program causes the tablet to crash. This indicates that the program exception handling is not functioning either as a call to the Bluetooth driver isn't handled properly.
Can any of the code mavens in this forum contribute something more than a guess? Thanks in advance.
Has anyone updated with the above said ROM and how is the overall experience and is everything working fine ???Here is the last november 2020 update.

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review.

How to install
You have to had TWRP installed from this thread TWRP and ROOT for Tab 4 8/10 (Plus) (TB-8704X/F/V,TB-X704L/F, TB-8504X/F, TB-X304L/F)
In TWRP clean Data if you coming from stock ROM and do Install of this ROM. If you have android 8 stock rom installed you have to format Data with data loss, because used encryption is incompatible with android 7.1
TB-8704V (Verizon)
If you have TB-8704V tablet, you have to additionaly flash boot.img from link above after rom intsallation. This tablet has some hardware differences from x and f and requires custom kernel to work,

Yes, I've been using it since shortly after release and everything that I use works fine.Has anyone updated with the above said ROM and how is the overall experience and is everything working fine ???
More important: could someone please build a 17.1 version with a recent security patch level, like 02/2021? Or could someone write a small howto of how to build and patch the current source? I am happy to provide builds by myself like every 3 months or so.Hey.....Any updates on releasing LOS 18.x for Lenovo Tab 4 8 plus from your side. Awaiting eagerly for an update....Thanks in advance !!
Did you do a Clean Flash or a Dirty Flash on top of the highwaystar_ru 's ROM mentioned on the very first page of this thread??Yes, I've been using it since shortly after release and everything that I use works fine.
