@adazem009 Is the maintainer of this rom,full credits to him, I'm not the developer of this rom... And about android 12, well that depends, because a newer 4.19 kernel has to be ported, a12 can be run using 3.18 kernel, but it's way too much effort,and things will break like crazy, and, porting to 4.19 is a task in of itself, porting from 3.18.x to 3.18.y may be a bit simple, but from 3.18 to 4.19, it's a huge task, and is quite complex,so, it will be a while or never, it depends on the interest of the dev, but porting now isn't a good option,as, there are no stable custom roms based on a12, and I know that aosp is stable, but no one except a few prefer that...Cool that you are building Android for such an old tablet . Will android 12 be on it ???
That could be because of the TWRP build you're using. Try another one.The ROM works but I have to patch the props check in the installer because my device identifies itself as tb_8504x instead of TB-8504X

Thanks! That worked. However touchscreen only works after I sleep the device for 5 seconds and wake it up thereafter in TWRP.Try this twrp, credits to @highwaystar_ru
This is the best recovery for this device, as far as installs go...twrp-3.3.1-1-TB8504.img
drive.google.com
Its a known issue, it takes some time after twrp for the touch driver to start, that's why it does that, apart from that, this recovery works fine...Thanks! That worked. However touchscreen only works after I sleep the device for 5 seconds and wake it up thereafter in TWRP.
I've never had touch issues in TWRP...Its a known issue, it takes some time after twrp for the touch driver to start, that's why it does that, apart from that, this recovery works fine...
Mine is the 8MP variant, I have to let the screen sleep after i enter recovery mode for touch to start working, and it's been like that for a long time... Maybe the variant difference is the cause for it?
Your tab boot into recovery through power off + vol up combination or any combination??? , Because mine 8 mp variant can't boot into recovery through any combination so i need pc everytime to boot into recovery etc...Mine is the 8MP variant, I have to let the screen sleep after i enter recovery mode for touch to start working, and it's been like that for a long time...

Yes, I can boot to recovery using key combinations, or, by rebooting to recovery from the rom itself... BTW, as soon as you see the splash screen, leave the power button and keep holding the volume up button until recovery shows up, if it doesn't and boots to os, done force reboot, let it start, then shutdown, then try recovery key combination again...Your tab boot into recovery through power off + vol up combination or any combination??? , Because mine 8 mp variant can't boot into recovery through any combination so i need pc everytime to boot into recovery etc...
I have tried it more than 1000+ times but nothing happens tab normally booted into system.Yes, I can boot to recovery using key combinations, or, by rebooting to recovery from the rom itself...

I do not live in Delhi...i too recieved this tab from school.
do you live in delhi?
it was same for me too, i also tried many many times to boot into recovery using power and volume button but it never worked for me for months, and had to flash backup using qfil whenever bootloop happened.
one day i was having many issues with flashing in tab, so i deleted all wiped all partitions from miracle thunder using edl (i know its dangerous) and then restored stock rom, i dont know what happened after wiping all partitions but since than i can open recovery using power + vol up button.
but note that after wiping all partition you will lost imei number and wifi mac address, you will have to restore them.
I can't help much, since, i don't have the issue you mentioned, and my device boots into recovery with the key combos just fine, not sure why that happes to you...I have tried it more than 1000+ times but nothing happens tab normally booted into system.
Actually this tab was provided by an institute and they locked tab many functions but after
That i did hard reset through adb ,but from starting tab never booted into recovery through button combination also i have flashed firmwares from lenovo asistant and qfil but nothing changes even in custom roms tab can't able to boot into recovery through button combination
Tab details:-screenshot(currently i am on stock rom due to bank apps)
Tab 8504x ,2gb ram,quelcomm425, 8 mp
i live in delhi and also tab given by schooli too recieved this tab from school.

I will do this after few months and i have backup of imei,mac, etc as i already faced blank imei corrupt mac address and i know how to repair My imei,mac etc through qualcomm tool(qfil and rebuilder) as i already did many many experiments on this tab(except wiping partition) .i will advise like @Hausemaster, if it is not neccessary don't do it, and you will also lost device imei number and sim will not work.
I dont think this cpu can support virualization, even if it did, the performance would not be that great, and as of the enabling part, I'm not really sure...can KVM be enabled in the kernel or does the CPU not support virtualization?
Hello, I'm a newbie here, and I aslo suffer from the same symptom like you as a result of installing a custom rom on my TB-8504x(crDroid 6.24). However, I managed to QFIL this guy with its stock rom of Nougat(android 7) and can finally fix this problem. Anyway, I hope this can work on your device.I will do this after few months and i have backup of imei,mac, etc as i already faced blank imei corrupt mac address and i know how to repair My imei,mac etc through qualcomm tool(qfil and rebuilder) as i already did many many experiments on this tab(except wiping partition) .
Btw thanks.

It's happening to all of us (see the "Known issues" section above). Updating some vendor blobs should fix it, but I think I'll need some help with it.Bro I have installed this rom, thnks for ur work but it's lagging ... is it only happening with me or with everyone !! so i decided to give a try to ur crDroid rom , again u guys are doing gr8 work !!
Yes, I'm still working on it. I'm still waiting for Android 12 CAF releases targeting to msm8937. After they''re there, it should be possible to build it using the device trees from Android 11 (with a few changes).Are you still developing this project? Can Tab4 8 update to Android 12? How can I donate to you to keep this project going? Thank you, hope to hear from you soon.
