This has been fixed on the latest build and you can now use any camera app. video recording still has issues though.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Adam Hui:
Ok thx, got it. Been using XDA Labs, the strikethroughed text appears as not it is... sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] venomrat:
Thanks. Got an earlier version and it works.

Rom is "snappier" than stock. Really like the minimal setup.

Thanks jedld . Great job. :good:

Will post more feedback after I use it for a few days.

Thanks for your work [MENTION=649003]jedld[/MENTION]

I will try to port this ROM for the SM-T580 :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
Now released a new build. This should fix the apk install from sdcard issues as well as other enhancements and fixes.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
Not sure what you mean though, the SM-T580 has a totally different hardware (Exynos?) and the big pain in porting ROMs is in supporting the hardware. It's best that you start instead with the device tree of a device with similar hardware as the SM-T580
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] cbtc:
You are absolutely right, my fault
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] venomrat:
I did a "clean" install of Beta 3 of this rom, meaning I did a factory reset in twrp before using odin to flash the rom.

I allowed the device to boot up once before installing gapps. The version I used was open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20161109.zip. Play store did not show after booting up.

I rebooted in to recovery, reinstalled gapps (just to be safe), and did a factory reset.

Play store showed up and works after that. Not sure why this happens.

Edit: The home button does not wake the tablet. Is this intentional?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
I was trying to enable that as that was requested by someone before. Thing is when I checked the OMNIRom sources, the option to enable that was reverted. I haven't dug around deep enough to check why.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
Gallery stops on opening (maybe just my device)... Though it works through messaging for picking photos not viewing them separately ... Camera for whatever reason yields blurry images (not that the camera is anything worth writing home about anyway to begin with)....but by using open camera I am getting much better photos...using quick pic instead of gallery

Very smooth though.. Great job

CM 14.1 Mobile data fix would be awesome..understand will take time.. On both omni and cm14. 1, the speakerphone does not work
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
thanks for your work...reported what I could find earlier in post # 80

noticed as mentioned in OP...graphic glitches when scrolling down on graphic intensive sites like buzzlauncher...this is the homepage homebuzz where all buzzlauncher themes are located-when I scroll down those theme pages, I can see the glitches (otherwise have not noticed it)-that site is quite intensive on the cpu/gpu as I recall on one of my old Lenovo K900 (back in mid 2013), it would simply exit off the site after a significant scroll amount (phone would get warm).

all in all working great otherwise, cm14.1 will be even more awesome. Thanks again.

EDIT: sometimes and not for all calls I get a process android phone stopped upon ending the call (not sure if it is the other person hanging up on the call first or myself first)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Kevinkuensken:
Hello,

can i change the battery Icon and where can i make center clock how in CM13??Or must i use Xposed?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
think you have to use xposed-try substratum but not easy as you have to just try various themes (most are paid) and the risk of bootloop (though can go to twrp advanced ..file manager ...data and then to the theme's applied overlay and delete that...in vendors/overlay)

---------- Post added at 10:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 PM ----------

hello jedid understand this omni has taken a backseat to your other roms...any updates planned for this or wondering if you could fix the process.android.phone.com has stopped crash after end of a phone call? I like the omni for its better cell signal versus the cm13 (though libraries for ril, radio look identical...must be something in framework-per signal check lite the signal is indeed stronger on the omni so not just a rendering thing...or something it does in interfacing with the modem (the ril) or some power management-maybe uses / allocates power than cm for radio? totally guessing here) thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
I'll see if I can get back to it, though those bugs have been fixed in CM and I think I can port it to omni. I'm currently busy porting LineageOS 14.1 to the device at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
Thanks jedid!...also this is a side question if you can answer it...how can one extract the modem.bin from a tar md5 stock rom? (know on tab s like the T705 etc, a modem.bin can be flashed through twrp per ashyx and have done it a while back..not sure if it can be done here on the Tab A)

or create a CP md5 for flashing the modem through odin?

I see the following in stock md5

boot, cache, hidden, recovery, SPRDCP, SPRDGDSP, SPRDLTEDSP, SPRDWDSP img files and then nviterm.bin and PM_sharkl_arm7.bin

thanks..when you have time
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
I don't think there is one file equivalent to modem.bin in this device imho
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
yes you are right there is no single modem.bin as such like in some older stock rom md5 tar files...

but I found this out that may be useful!

many months back and there is only this one site called https://service-gsm.net/ that had the SM-T285M stock rom split up into AP, CP, CSC, etc (even the PIT file). It is a paid site (2.99 euros for 24 hrs something like that). I have used it to flash the modem through odin i.e the CP tar md5 file. I took a look into it. It has SPRDWDSP.img, SPRDCP.img, SPRDGDSP.img, SPRDLTESP.img. nvitem.bin and PM_sharkl_arm7.bin.

So getting these from the full stock tar md5 and making a tar md5 of them would get a file that can be flashed through odin. Was trying to see if the latest stock roms had anything different on the modem (Jan 2, 2017).

EDIT noticed small file size changes in the SPRDCP.img and SPRDDSP.img (maybe there could be other changes not revealed in file sizes) so looks like an updated modem...will try to create a new CP for the CP slot in odin
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
Hello Jedid understand you are busy (and I don't mean with ROMs necessarily :)....would you be able to port those fixes for Omni for the phone.com crash when ending a call? Thanks (maybe lineage cm14.1 is your priority now-been using it for a few days now)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
I'll try to revisit omni 6 when I have time. Though is anyone still interested in an Omni 7.1 version for the SM-T285?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:

Nice rom, thank you. Everything seems to work except a bug regarding phone calls through headphones, it doesn't work.

Only main speaker, plug-in headphones is without effect except dial tones when composing a number.

Would it be possible to fix this?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] ZHYK88:
After each incoming call, if I do not finish the call myself, but the tablet itself does it, then the mobile network falls and only the "aircraft" mode helps

Are you able to obtain logs?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Hightower68:
Is this statement still valid? Seems like it was written late last year.

"SM-T280 Users: Unfortunately this rom would probably not work on it since the SM-T285 and SM-T280 have different kernels and slightly different hardware. I don't have access to this device so it would be hard for me to port it over. However I believe there are a lot of similiarities in the device tree that can be shared. If a dev with the SM-T280 is interested I can probably help."

Is there no hope for the T-280 to go beyond 5.1.1?

Nice job, I wonder android 7.1.1 woulb be better but i'll check out this rom from today dude.

Maybe someone already asked for it but there is a way to enable the hardware home button to wake up the tablet? This works on stock rom and when i flashed this the feature is gone. I can wake up the screen only with the power and the volume if i enable it in the options.

WHOAAA... I got sick of my sero 7 pro being a piece of S*** in my car... i had it mounted in the dash and it worked, but man what a pain. It would be slow, hang... never liked doing more than one thing at a time.

Searched and searched for a better 7" tablet, but to my surprise there isnt a lot of options. 7" tablets are nearly dead... but I needed that form factor otherwise it would have been a major overhaul to my dash.

Picked up a T285 on ebay for $125. Then magic happened. Usually when I buy a new device, I either can't root it, or the layout is something weird... or it has good specs but the software sucks... there is ALWAYS something wrong.

Not this time. Root was a breeze. Installed Omni Rom in seconds. Formatted the 128GB sd card i had to work as internal storage. Installed in my truck with zero modification from my last tablet (pure luck). Everything works. And works GREAT. I can listen to music while running GPS, and switch over to OBDII monitoring on the fly. I can multitask like a mother effer now... this is a really good tablet! It even sounds 10x better than my sero pro (much better DAC in the galaxy). Fantastic!!!!

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] sohamlive:
Will it work on SC8830?

So, I have a SM-T285YD model branded by Samsung as Galaxy J Max. This model shares the same specifications of SM-T285. The only part where it is different is that it uses SC8830 instead of SC9830. Also, the device is a dual sim.

If I flash this ROM will it work in it since the chipset is almost the same? Really want to upgrade from the old Lollipop.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mkkz:
Thanks! It works on my sm-t285. The phone is blazing light.

- Used Odin 3.13.1

- Used TWRP_3.0.2-1_SM-T285_20161124.tar.md5

- Used omni-6.0-20161209-UNOFFICIAL-SMT285-BETA-3.zip

- Installed open_gapps-arm-6.0-nano-20180620.zip

- Used sdcard as internal / sdcard-ext4

Issues/solution:

1) Had problem the phone kept rebooting after logo, it stuck at 'Android is Loading, starting apps..' Reboot into TWRP, wipe data and the problem is gone.

2) Some apps froze alot when the the app is used on sdcard/ext4. Change the apps data to internal storage, it doesn't hangs now. (it happens with pinterest app)

3) Sometimes whenever I called a person, if he didn't pick it up, an android service will be doing an error shutdown and the phone signal will be totally out. My solution was to on/off airplane mode and the signal will be back.

Thanks jedld for your hardwork, Omnirom is awesome.

Sorry for my ignorance here

I am a total noob. I have rooted a device before, many moons ago, but now i have this t285. Using some ****ty guide i rooted it, but did not like the result so i managed to re-stock it with the latest stock firmware (after a few bootloops first lol).

Is there any chance someone could link me to a post or guide upgrade my t285 to this marshmallow, please? Something that Granny could follow, I would even need ADB instructions that granny could follow i have never used adb (shift rclick will open powershell not command line (is that an issue? I really am that nooby). I have never flashed a ROM, to my knowledge.

I bought the device for £45 so not really worried about warranty or real damage.

Like most people, the end result i want is a tab with adoptable storage, and play store enabled. And be nice to run a basic AR star walk app too. It looks like this ROM version is pretty close to consumer version, and the Pros outweigh the cons for me now.

Sorry for my ignorance, i never wanted to make a whole new thread to ask this, so I will keep checking back to see if anyone has the patience to help me lol . <3 sir <3

Edit: maybe i should try the latest rom post, I guess people are done with this thread lol.

I really hope I find a nice teacher to help get started

Hi everybody,

Big thanks to jedld!!!

I love my phone smt285, and I hate all the bloatware that unfortunately comes with it and steals my megahertzes and gigabytes, making this device working really slow... Also, the forced samsung system update made me just crazy:::

So I had no choice but to change the OS. Why on Earth it is so much more difficult then to change OS on a PC???

Anyway, I downloaded this ROM, and I followed the instructions from xdaroms.info/best-custom-rom-for-samsung-galaxy-tab-a6-t285-lte, and it seems I did OK.

As result - no junk google/samsung apps, a lot of free space and great performance.

But, my Direct Wi-Fi is not working at all ;( Even impossible to rename my device, as well as search for devices.

This function is extra important, it helps to share very quickly big amounts of data without internet/cables/black magic.

Could someone guide me how to fix it?

Also, when the stable edition will be available?

Thanks everyone!

[YotaPhone] adc103:
With all the updating going on lately for the YotaPhone I am lost if the Chinese (YD-206) got the update? I mean without the hassle of trying to flash the RU version on it?

If not maybe could you help me find the cheapest YD-201 version? :D It's be greatly appreciated!

Also another question I had on my mind was how the performance is for simple VR games? I noticed it has Gyroscope and I wanted to use Riftcat and a leap motion to simulate a vive... Maybe use some freetrack with it to get some tracking so i can walk a little too! I don't wanna bore you all with the details but yeah do you guys think it can handle some of the games? I realize that riftcat just streams it from my PC but i'm not sure how intensive that is!

Thanks guys I appreciate it! Also if all works out and I get all that VR stuff going I'll keep you all updated! Again Thank You all so much :)
[YotaPhone] VirtuaLeech:
The Chinese version is unfortunately stuck on KitKat. Flashing to the RU firmware is not that hard and if it should fail you can always flash back to the Chinesae version.
[YotaPhone] Parmo100:
Yes, I agree , it's easy , put handset in developer mode so your PC can talk to it, then install yotaflasher on the PC, 1 option to download your chosen firmware zip file then another option to flash your handset. If there is something wrong (normally adb drivers) you have not lost anything.

The problems will only start if it does not flash and you have to tinker.

But yes, I recommend that you try to update to the latest release.

Yes Yotaphone works very well with VR games, gets a little hot and uses battery , but so all handsets.

I think even if you buy the yd201 , you may not have an update selection, but I am not sure of this. They usually have a special modified retailer firmware with more languages and stopping updates. A few weeks ago when I ordered my yd206 there were plenty of international yd201s and even some white Yotaphone, but now there fewer.
[YotaPhone] adc103:
I think I am convinced too take my chance with the YD-206 now, I was just a little skeptical since I saw some others on the forum having problems trying to get it too RU. But in one of the threads a saw a solution if I can't get it too work by doing it manually.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] F9zSlavik:
There is a very very long story. I've spent numerous hours on the phone with customer service over a variety of issues. This last issue was about me getting horrendous connection from a cell tower that's less than half a mile away. I had an engineer out to check it out and confirmed it. There is no immediate remedy for this. I called customer service and offered a 25 dollar inconvenience fee. I took it as an insult. Manage to get my hands on the the regional managers number, explained my situation, and bam, wiped my monthly balance of 245 plus gave me a S7 Edge Silver for free. Been a loyal customer for 11 years. I thanked the guy and I am looking forward to another 11 years.

I finally gave up my Note 7 though. Saddest day of my life. S7 is nice but... it's no Note 7.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] xVermicide:
first world problems much?

i think it's safe to say we can call the note 7 user base the Crybabies of Android.

what is sad about getting rid of a phone that could cause you serious injury?

what is the difference between the S and the Note7 that makes you feel emotional and sad?

this reminds me of people who care more about the name "iPhone" or "galaxy" for the trend, than how the phone really performs.

you know these phones don't even have AOSP roms, right? neither of these phones are that great really - let alone anything to get emotional over. if you want a better phone to keep your tears from falling, I suggest a newer Nexus phone or OnePlus 3.

now if the CM team all quit and abandoned the project. now that's an Android topic I'd get emotional over!

edit: just checked, and S7/Note7 appear to have the same exact specs aside from the screen size (in which the S7E has a higher pixel density). except the S7E has a better battery. what exactly makes you sad about this? the fact that you can't walk around with something "called" an iPhone? oops, I mean "Note."

those sound like some groundbreaking exclusive features. it's a shame we will never experience these legendary functions on any phone but the amazing note 7.

think about it. for the 7 line, the Galaxy S Edge is now the top Samsung phone of 2016. they are obviously gonna bring the software features from the note to the S7.

it's funny. anyone who has paid for an S7E probably loves their phone and is happy to have one of the fastest OEM android phones on the planet. yet we get these people who come to this forum, who don't care about android development, or probably the power of their own phone. and complain about stuff that has literally nothing to do with Android like this is the place to do it.
