[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][10] LineageOS 17.1 for Samsung Galaxy Tab S (SM-T700, SM-T705, SM-T800, SM-T800, SM-P600)

[CessnaBroon]

Hey guys, I just installed the latest crdroid for my t705 but it doesn't boot. It just stays on boot screen for hours. What can I do?

Open TWRP, wipe data, cache and dalvik then reboot system.

Will you be making this available as a flashable zip? I'd love to try it on my T805

I have made a zip file which includes a modified boot.img and the deathlyadiutor apk. The boot.img can be flashed through TWRP. Only for T800 and T805!

Release Changes from the deathly kernel added · HazouPH/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5420

Only for the chagallwifi (t800) and chagalllte (t805) De zip file contains the boot.img and de deathlyadiutor.apk. De boot.img can be flashed through TWRP. boot-t800-deathly.zip boot-t805-deathly.z...

Can you please make a T700/705 version?

Installed okay but now I am getting quite a few random reboots. It seems to be connected to the existing issue with video/webview. Pages with embedded video previously caused the tablet to freeze up, now it reboots!

The only other ongoing issue is that after rebooting it won't let me login with PIN for quite a while. Annoying but I can live with it.

I don't have the issue with webview tester from the playstore. Do u have some apps in which webview crashes? Not that I can fix them, but i do like to have a look.

Mainly in Google News but I've seen it in some other apps on occasion. It seems more stable on older versions of webview, I'm currently running v54.0.2840.

Hello. I just got this tablet - sm-t800. Is this rom better and faster than stock? Ive had some issues and lags in some games on stock - for example fruit ninja - Is the performance better on this rom? And is is stable enough?

Not sure on T800, but without Gapps, it runs like a dream on T700. With Gapps, acceptable, a bit laggy, but great performance in games. Better than stock.

Thank you for your answer. I saw a few gapps packages, i do care about gapps, but not all of them. Just YT, Gmail, Maps. Maybe I can install a small package of them and not lose a performance.

By saying without gapps you mean you dont have ANY of them?

I've tried with and without. In general use (with) of stock, I saw laggy notification slide at times, and random app crashes, especially camera, but very good game performance. Without, no issues, except you can't do anything without gapps lol

 

[CessnaBroon]

Hi!
Does anyone know how to use the exynos5420 device tree to build a ROM? I'm trying to learn how to build ROMs, and this is a crucial part I need to know.

Many thanks,
Cessna.

Thanks again for ur reply. The final question - is lineageos 17.1 better than 14.1? I dont know which rom should I choose.

The 14.1 has Android processes that repeatedly crash, and then forces a random reboot. You're better off on the 17.1. Hope This helps, and good luck!!

It needs those patches to work properly:

ConsumerIr: Don't convert MS to pulses · HazouPH/[email protected]

The kernel does it for us Change-Id: I53e6acf0db671c61543598b2b527422844c30c44

Sepolicy: ConsumerIr: Give the IR path the right permissions · HazouPH/[email protected]

Change-Id: Ibe191bfaa1669d0610adae08d2e6f79c8f218357

github.com

But I can't upload to there gerrit. So someone needs to compile it. I won't just yet for you

Seems like the right firmware. You started the firmware before flashing TWRP? Then flashed the right TWRP for your tablet? If so, I dunno. Maybe try another T700 android 6 firmware?

@Hazou do you have a hint on how one would apply those patches?

Hi, I use T800 on LOS14.1 and I don't have this problem. The tablet is slow just after start, but 3 minutes later, it runs smoothly.
I first installed LOS17.1, the very first version. It was working fine, but the RAM management issue made me go to LOS14.1. I wonder if there has been any progress and if since that time LOS17.1 has gotten really better?

Again, I can't really comment on T800 (I'm T700), but @ISoreo 's custom kernel speeds things up a lot, and the hardware management is much improved.

 

[CessnaBroon]

By the way, can someone please give me an update on the random crashes situation? Is it still a thing, and if yes, how do I fix it, with links to any files necessary? Many thanks

Great, thanks! I tried to develop but couldn't get it working lol. Does that mean the Webview issue is no longer a thing?
