About twrp, download the 3.7.0 for matisse, obviously tar format to be flashed on odin.

Thanks,

And I can directly donwload the latest file lineage-16.0-20230126-UNOFFICIAL-matissewifi.zip and install it from Android 5.0.2 ?

You do not install a new ROM "from" Android.

Without TWRP, on Samsung, all installing is "from" a PC, using Odin.

If you have never installed a ROM on a Samsung device, maybe this is not the best test case.

What did your mother-in-law mean by "reset"? Why not just factory reset / wipe data?

Thanks I successfully flash the last lineage os ROM with TWRP.

I were confused because on the first page there are links for previous lineage os ROM before December, I thought that we should use these ROM before flash the last one.

Just want to say thanks for this great rom. I am very successfully running the 20220209 release on my SM-T530NU.

Two questions -
Should I move up to one of the later generic builds or stay with the 20220209 which seems specific to the Tab 4 10.1"?
Where can I find TWRP 3.7.0? The links send me to 3.6.2.

Thanks again, great work!

 

[TomL2]

Oh, and when I click on any of the links for TWRP 3.6.2 I get "no mirrors found".

Latest builds aren't generic. Check better. TWRP 3.7.0 is in that channel too, just search for it.

Channel?

It would be a lot faster and easier for everyone if you just posted the link. The link at the top of this thread doesn't work.

I see all your repositories on github but I dont see one for TWRP.

Hi,

I installed LOS and Gapps according to installation instructions. Was not happy with GApps, wiped again system, data, cache, dalvik/art cache and internal storage and installed LOS only. However after reboot there appears a message for a short time, something like "applying factory reset" and the tablet reboots in recovery mode.
I repeated this procedure multiple times without success. The tablet just does not boot in system. Any suggestions?

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 9 (Pie), 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. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Installation instructions :

• Be sure to have installed latest TWRP recovery (you can find it in downloads) and latest Android Lollipop (5.0.2 for matisse, 5.1.1 for millet) firmware
• Download the latest build and GApps (ARM, 9.0, I advice pico package) - if you'll go to wipe even internal storage, put them on a microSD or an USB OTG, or copy them after wiping it
• Boot to recovery mode
• Wipe > Advanced wipe > Select system, data, cache and dalvik/art cache (and, if you want to clean more, select even internal storage, which deletes all the content in /sdcard) and do swipe to wipe. When it finishes, go to home page
• Install > select ROM zip file > swipe to flash and, when it finished, go to home page
• Do the same thing to flash GApps
• Reboot > System

Update instructions :

• Be sure to have installed latest TWRP build
• Download the latest build
• Boot to recovery mode
• Install > select ROM zip file > swipe to flash and, when it finished, go to home page
• Reboot > System

Known issues :

• Magnetic cover doesn't trigger magnetic sensor (it works, but it's too little sensible).
• Some randomic minor issues with YouTube app (sometimes, after skipping ads in a video, you'll get just a grey screen - close and reopen video to fix the issue)
• Some randomic issues with bluetooth MAC address (bluetooth app crashes always). To fix this, you need to get (take note!) the address by going to stock ROM and getting that from Settings > About tablet menu. Then, come back to LineageOS 16 and rewrite the file /efs/bluetooth/bt_addr by using root permissions and a root file explorer, or by using adb push/pull, better in TWRP.
• In all millet, camera crashes when trying to take pictures and can't zoom
• 5 GHz WiFi networks between channels 149 and 161 are invisible to the Tab
• In matisse3g and millet3g SIM isn't working

However after reboot there appears a message for a short time, something like "applying factory reset" and the tablet reboots in recovery mode.
I repeated this procedure multiple times without success. The tablet just does not boot in system. Any suggestions?

My normal procedure for reinstalling is:

Boot to recovery
Wipe system, data. cache, davik, internal storage
Boot to recovery
Copy ROM zip (from my Mac in this case) to tablet
Install ROM using TWRP
Wipe cache, davik
Boot system.

Is that what you did?

Just for grins I installed the latest 20230126 on my matissewifi and I get the same - get the Lineage screen then immediate boot to recovery! Guess I'll go back to where I was until a new stable ROM is released.

Now I followed exactly the steps you suggested (before I missed wiping cache, davik after installing the ROM). Unfortunately with the same outcome.
My TWRP version is 3.6.2_9-1 (although installed twrp-3.6.2_9-0-matisse).
The LOS file is lineage-16.0-20230126-UNOFFICIAL-matissewifi.zip

20221216 release does the same - Lineage screen then immediate boot to recovery.

20220209 release is stable. Any others?

I'm also testing another rom - https://androidfilehost.co/?fid=4279422670115708985
This is crDroid based on Android 11 as opposed to Android 9. So far it seem stable, responsive, nobloat, and with good battery life. Magick installed easily. I think I'm going to stay with it for a while

The 20220209 release booted but was not very stable eather on my device. The built-in browser crashed every time I tried to download anything. So I could not run any app besides the built-in apps.

Crdroid runs very smoothly, so I'm going to stick with it. Thanks for the hint.
