CyanogenMod 13 for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 LTE​
By Hennymcc and CTXz​


CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

CyanogenMod 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. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Before you start

This ROM is only for the T235 and T235Y

Code:
 *
 * Your warranty will be voided !
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 *
Special Thanks
  • @hennymcc For his huge effort and contributions on Exynos 3470 related devices
  • @tyktak For the testing
  • And of course the entire CyanogenMod team!

Q&A

Q: Will this work on T2XX

A: This build is ONLY for the LTE variant of the 4 inch tab. I have not tried if this rom works on the T235Y (should probably work though). However the LTE version has an Exynos 3470 where else the Wifi version has a Marvell chip (I have some bad experience with that chip *cough* attempt to get CM working on it *cough*). PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO FLASH THIS ON ANY OTHER DEVICE THAN THE T235 OR T235Y.


Q: What about the T230!!!
A: As mentioned in my TWRP thread. Sub77 will send me a T230, and I can give it a shot again to build at least CM11 on it.


Q: How long till <insert issue here> gets fixed
A: ETA's (Short for Estimated Time of Arrival) aren't tolerated that well on XDA. Please remember that this is only a hobby!

I have been looking forward to this ROM for a while and I really appreciate your effort in this. Thank you very much!

Flashed it and deleted the setupwizard.apk as suggested but the CM setup wizard still crashes after pressing skip on "SIM card missing" tab. Any suggestions how to bypass this?

Any possibility for kernel with overclocking CPU and GPU functions for our tab?

So excited!

I have 2 SM-T230's for my boys, If you need someone to test something please let me know. (I am hoping that this will have the Marshmallow feature to use the SDcard as internal memory)

Thanks Andi

I've dirty flashed the actual build over last lp build by hennymmc. Generally the last build works well but ril doesn't work with boh7 baseband. The camera preview hang up after taking a photo. If you take a new picture, the photo shows in gallery but the preview doesn't work.

@CTXz

Thanks very much indeed for this ROM. It's running good, however i just want to point out 2 really minor things (aside from the RIL stuff).
1. Sensitive notification drawer, as from my hlte CM12.1, "Contents hidden" for any apps in the notification drawer
2. Quick unlock option inside Lockscreen menu
