Sort of new to this on a Samsung device...Why when I flashed the ROM in my build it says T813XXU1APF4.stock.odexed.by.pvsgh and not LightningRom. Did advanced wipe, system, cache, dalvik/art cache, data and internal storage. Then flashed ROM, still comes up with the above.

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM ----------

And why I'm going through the options in the beginning when installing, it says my system information is an Xperia MDPI and not the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2?

Wireless working on T713

I just purchased a T713 yesterday and am already in love with this device. Obviously I was itching to flash a custom rom right off the bat. After flashing this rom and the wifi fix I too was unable to connect to my wifi. It would just say connecting but never connect. I was finally able to get it working by assigning the wifi a static IP instead of using DHCP (once I assigned the IP the tablet connected to the wifi and I was able to get on the internet). Once I changed the wifi back to DHCP it would just say connecting, but never would connect. I did find an option under Developer options called Use legacy DHCP client. I tried enabling that and turning DHCP back on for my wireless connection but still no go (at this point it may have been connecting to wifi with DHCP but I was still unable to browse the internet or browse the playstore). I went back into the Developer options and disabled that Use legacy DHCP client (I may have also rebooted the tablet at this point) and now my wireless works like normal in DHCP mode. I have connected to several different wireless networks and all has been good. Not sure if this will help anyone or not.

I forgot to give a shoutout to Lightning. Thanks for including the T713 in your development. I appreciate having at least one good custom rom I can flash. All is running great so far! Thanks again Lightning :)
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Gandicela:
Thanks for sharing. I'm on 719Y and yet to flash this custom ROM (only one for this device, actually). I'm planning to test this over this weekend.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] jabbermacy:
Same here... I pray WiFi isn't a problem or I'm dead in the water. I also love the device :)
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] bavmouse:
i cant't flash xposed without to get a bootloop. anybody a idea?

I think youve flashed the wrong rom?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3421276
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Kygl:
I have verified that and re-downloaded the ROM and flashed it, but still shows what I noted earlier on the build.

Otherwise, how do I get rid of the other build so that I'm able to get Lightning on it?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] jabbermacy:
well, I'm stuck, I got TWRP on my 713, flashed the encrypt patch, but cannot wipe (cannot mount filesystem) so my tab is useless now. I can't get into the system (bootloop). What's my options? Odin>stock? KIES>stock?

ANY idea why it won't allow me to mount after the encrpt patch??? Help, I'm really in a pickle...
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Gandicela:
Even if you have bootloop now, you could still go boot into TWRP recovery, I think so. If I could suggest;

Re-download the ROM and copy it into your external SD card. You might want to do this via your PC, then put that SD Card into your tablet tray.

Full wipe your system, for a totally clean install

Flash Lightn1ng ROM from your SD Card via TWRP INSTALL function

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Reboot system

If nothing else helps, yes, perhaps Odin>Stock firmware as you mentioned is the final option.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] imdatslaya:
Don't forget you have to format before you flash anything.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] imdatslaya:
I got WiFi working using a static IP method. Now the new problem is that I don't seem to be rooted. I used the method in this thread with no luck

Your method worked for me on the same model. Thanks!

---------- Post added at 11:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 PM ----------

I was able to fix the wifi problem by using slaz13 method. But as you, i dont have root. I even tried flashing it from recovery and still wont work.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Gandicela:
Do u mean u can go to TWRP and flash SuperSU and yet still not rooted?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Tabaqui:
Yup. Only xposed seems to be working fine. Also tried it without xposed installed,so no the issue isn't coming from there either .
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] imdatslaya:
Soon as I get this thing rooted it will be perfect now that I have WiFi working.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Tabaqui:
Let me know when you do
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] HairyMilkshakes:
Having an issue accessing root after flashing the ROM only through TWRP... did not install Xposed either. To note, SuperSu app is installed... What can be the problem?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] izabeL:
I'm experiencing the same thing on my SM-T713 device. I even used Smart Switch to do a recovery and tried again... same problem again. I followed the instructions to the letter.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] HairyMilkshakes:
Just wiped everything and reinstalled the ROM by itself again - it installs SuperSU app and is able to update to the latest binary (2.78) but fails all root checks.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ashyx:
Do not rely on root checkers at the moment.

The latest version has had some major changes which is causing root checkers to fail which need to be updated.

If root apps work you have root.

Either downgrade to v2.78 SR1(latest version is not required for this device) or stick it out.

https://plus.google.com/+Chainfire/posts/24xhJN724HG
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] HairyMilkshakes:
Noted and I will try that. To add, root apps are not working for me at the moment.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ashyx:
If that's the case then you should file a bug report to Chainfire.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] imdatslaya:
Same. I'm gonna wipe and start over. This time I won't update SU.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ashyx:
No need to wipe just flash over.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] izabeL:
I've followed this to the letter. I even formatted first. Pretty much the device is rooted until I do the dhcp fix to get the wifi working. Without the dhcp fix, the Wi-Fi doesn't work, even when flashing your wifi fix.

So I pretty much have to pick between being rooted or having WiFi.. :(
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] HairyMilkshakes:
Just ran the process again with the same results - SuperSU is installed and validated but did not use RootCheck. Root-dependent apps fail to validate permissions and so the device didn't pass root check.

What information do I need to give them to file the report?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] HairyMilkshakes:
Also, some feedback for those having issues with the wifi on T713:

1. Install ROM

2. Flash wifi fix

3. Flash no-verity

4. In OS -> settings -> enable developer mode -> developer options -> turn legacy DHCP on, then off

5. Reboot

And you should be good to go.

I didn't do step 2 but did step 3. Ended up flashing wifi fix and followed the remaining steps to fix this issue. Flashing the wifi fix zip did not solve the issue initially.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Rhei:
I didn't do step 3 in your list but did step 2, issue was resolved as well. Sounds like the DHCP on/off and reboot is what is really fixing this.

A weird aside, I decided to go back to stock as I would rather have root and Internet. Restored my nandroid backup, and the issue followed (wifi would not even turn on). Flashing wifi fix would not work either.

Looks like I'm on this build until the root issue gets fixed.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Gandicela:
Slightly different as you, I'll remain stock but rooted on my 719Y. I just have TWRP + SuperSU and couldn't proceed further. For now, that is.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] HairyMilkshakes:
I am not sure whether the wifi fix is causing SuperSU to not work, but I just tried stock ROM + TWRP + SuperSU v2.78 and got the following results:

1. Boot tablet into download mode and connect to the PC via USB

2 Flash stock ROM using Odin (T713XXU1APG1_T713XAR1APG2_HOME.tar.md5)

2. Factory reset after Samsung logo hanging on startup (hold power + vol up + vol down + home button all together for 5-10 seconds until tablet powers off, then reboot into default recovery mode).

3. Once rebooted and on the welcome screen, completely power-off the tablet, then reboot into download mode

4. Flash TWRP using Odin

5. Reboot into recovery

6. Wipe -> Format Data -> type Yes to factory reset and remove encryption.

7. Flash SuperSU 2.78

8. Flash no-verity

9. Reboot

Confirmed root check verification and device is properly rooted. So, there is something odd about Lightning's ROM in its current state where it somehow installs SuperSU but fails to actually root the device. I am staying on stock as well until he fixes this. Xposed module will help bring some of the ROM's intended features into the tablet.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ashyx:
Step 6 is incorrect.

Step 6 should be format using the FORMAT DATA button not advanced wipe.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] HairyMilkshakes:
Thanks for catching the error - typed it at 6AM in the morning... To add, Xposed is fully working as well using this unofficial version: http://xdaforums.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] alowdev376:
I am really interested in this rom. Can someone please confirm if this rom has the ability to have the goggle play services removed as well as all of the stock Google apps. Thank you
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Xp3riaXpr3ss:
Thanks [MENTION=6553354]Lightn1ng[/MENTION] and supporting devs for putting this ROM together.

Seems like this is the only one so far which is compatible with the T819 variant. Much appreciated.

Root process and ROM installation went smoothly though it took awhile to figure out the power/vol button combos to navigate through the Aroma installer.

WiFi availability proved to be elusive with the T819, as with other supported devices. The wifi fix, legacy DHCP on/off toggling in developer mode (which worked for some T713 users) did not help.

By any chance are you looking at re-fixing wifi as it seems to be affecting all variants?

Cheers.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] fehrcomp:
I use this rom for my T813 since almost 10 days and everything works perfect, root & xposed too! Thank you so much for sharing it!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
CPU scores depend partially on how hot your CPU is. The hotter the CPU, the lower the score. After installing a ROM, your CPU will heat up while it finishes optimizing things. This explains the lower score. You should only compare AnTuTu scores while completely idling.

That's one of my goals for the next few days - to get a working AROMA installer for the T713 and T813.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Windsor1959:
Yep. I retested and my scores are about 2k higher than stock. Thanks again.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ElAguila:
I got it flashed with no issues. Currently installing my apps. I did not experience a bootloop on the first boot. Should I be worried about that?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
It goes by very fast, maybe you missed it.

Either way, it doesn't really matter.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ElAguila:
I must have missed it then. Anybody know of a volume mod that will work with this ROM?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
Somebody in the TWRP thread posted a bunch of mods here: https://mega.nz/#F!PNpjURaC!MGYWw65SSVO1q8fqzwJF7w

There is a sound mod in there. That one should work.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
NEW UPDATE - v1.0

-> This ROM is officially STABLE! No more beta testing (I hope)

-> We now have an AROMA installer! Select what you want and what you don't - also includes an easy Xposed installation!

-> Minor debugging
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Windsor1959:
Should I do a clean install or would a dirty flash be okay?

Thanks again for your hard work and persistence.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
A dirty flash is fine, I did it many times while testing.

For those who care, a T813 version is coming soon. I plan to support all the 2016 Qualcomm models (Including the cellular variants).
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
T813 version is up. T719 is next up on my list.

How do I authorize ADB access?

I got TWRP and the Lightening ROM installed after some serious head scratching. It really pays to read the instructions and then read them again. :p In any case, I've enabled developer mode and when I try to attach an ADB session I get:

List of devices attached

884227b9011554ce	unauthorized

Normally, at this point, I'd get a dialog box asking me to authenticate the connection. But, for some reason, I'm not getting the dialog box and therefore not able to authenticate. I also don't see the option to revoke the authorizations like I see with other MM ROMs. Am I missing something? Did I forget to turn something on?

This really doesn't seem like a kernel bug because of the missing ADB dialog box. But, can you provide a link to where the kernel came from so I can get the sources and rebuild? If I can fix this, we can get fully functional with this otherwise fantastic ROM. Thanks for all of your efforts!

TIA,

Mike
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MJFox78:
thanks a lot for your ROM!

do private mode and secret mode in samsung's browser work with this ROM?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] peacepipe:
Thank you Lightn1ng for your work. I flashed your image at this morning. It was a bit fiddly at the installation process because the touchscreen didn't work but all in all it's nice to choose which Apps I want and not. I hope I have time to check it out a bit more today!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
Yes, secret mode works, but I'm not sure about Private Mode. Why don't you find out ;)

Can you please be a little more specific about the install process? Are you using the T713 or the T813?

It's a kernel bug.

The sources can be found here assuming you have a T713, but I haven't been able to compile them, likely due to my lack of a brain.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] peacepipe:
I used my T813 and at the installation process it was only possible to control by Volume or Shutdown Buttons.

You see large buttons and want to touch it but unfortunately it wasn't possible .
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
T713 does not have this issue, but if that's the way the T813 wants to be, I'll just put that in the instructions.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] taichichuan:
Where did you get the kernel?

This is a trash kernel that Samsung puts out there to fool the masses into thinking they support open source. Do you remember where you got the kernel you're flashing in ROMs you built?

TIA
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
I didn't make the kernel, [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] did. All the kernels I used can be found in the TWRP thread, here.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] taichichuan:
Thanks! I'll let you know if I have any success...

Thanks for the link. I'll check there and see if I can rebuild it. If I can fix the ADB problem, I'll get you a copy of the kernel.

Slightly OT - apologies chef.

Is it possible to hide root from apps on this device? Can you get magisk installed on the stock rom?

I'd like to not break pokemon go (for my daughter, honest!) and sky q, sky go.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ashyx:
At the moment hiding root is a merry go round with Google.

As soon as an exploit if found Google patches it.

See the Magisk and SuperSU threads for updates.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Xp3riaXpr3ss:
[MENTION=6553354]Lightn1ng[/MENTION], good to see you again.

Appreciate if you could relook into the wifi fixes once more. Doesn't seem to be working consistently across supported variants. Not for me on the T819Y either.

Previous issues seem to stem from superSU breaking sensors and stuff, but not since the v2.78-SR4 update.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
I think all of these issues more than likely are either

A) a bad batch of tablets (wifi has been dropping out lately for me too and works fine most of the time)

B) try flashing the stock firmware *that the tablet shipped with* before trying the ROM.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] 70dad2:
Grateful for the efforts by the developer. I have a T713 and am still unable to gain root after fixing WiFi. I tried re-flashing super-su 2.78 and a few other versions and it didn't work. Has anyone else with a T713 been able to fix WiFi without breaking root or re-obtain root after WiFi fix? Could you please share your method? Thank you.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ashyx:
You need to specify didn't work, it's too generic.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] 70dad2:
"You need to specify it didn't work, it's too generic."

After I followed the steps to fix my wifi I lost root, so, I tried to regain root by flashing super su 2.78. It did not work. By that I mean flashing super su 2.78 did not give me root access. I thought that was implicit in my statement. Sorry.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] ashyx:
Again you are simply saying it didn't work.

What didn't work?

The install, apps can't get root, root checkers report no root, supersu reports no binary installed?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] 70dad2:
OK, gotcha. Again, sorry. It installed but apps couldn't get root.
