Try re-installing SuperSU then running the uninstall that is within SU itself - there is an option for complete a complete uninstall, then when it is done, reboot. Re-flash ROM, Gapps, SUaddon in that order on the same session (i.e.,don't reboot between the installs) and after it boots and settles, go into development tools and make sure it's toggled. I had to toggle off, reboot, then toggle on and had root ever since. Supposedly you only need to flash the SUaddon only once, but I do it after every LOS upgrade just for safety. If that fails, reflash everything but format /system in TWRP before starting the flash. As always, make sure you have good backups!

Is anyone familiar with build props? I found the following on XDA. https://xdaforums.com/android/general/guide-build-prop-tweaks-t3376962

Would these be safe to use? I would like to add the speed tweaks.

I would use a local.prop file rather than editing build.prop directly. Ref... https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=72301795&postcount=514

The syntax of local.prop is identical to build.prop and the local.prop settings get applied on each boot. local.prop is also persistent across dirty flash updates!

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Crwys:
I actually came across that exact same thread. I tried both the suggested lines but neither worked. I did not try the app but I assume that does the same thing. The only thing I can think of is maybe the built in kernal auditor that comes with this ROM, its build.prop editor is broken?

And yes I did reboot after making changes to the build.prop.

However I am already getting used to the physical buttons (My phone and previous tablet are on screen buttons)

and its not that bad. This tablet is amazing and so is this ROM. Thank you devs.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Yemble:
Yes, I think that Samsung put the USB port in the wrong place on the P900. It should have been on the top edge rather than the bottom edge. So in portrait mode, you have to hold it upside down, if you have it plugged in, with all of the buttons in the wrong place, otherwise you risk snapping the USB connector (I have done this!). Interestingly, Samsung got the USB position right on the Galaxy Tab A 10.1.

I can assure you that adding the line

to the build.prop works perfectly on mine, even using Deathly Adiutor.

Here is a screenshot, either you haven't entered it correctly or it only works on my specific build. I'm using the build from 19th Feb 2017, I have no probs with it so have not found any reason to update versions.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] deb75:
Hello,

I would like to make one micro sdxc card work with my note pro 12.2 (latest rom). The card is a sandisk ultra plus 128Go.

When plugging it into the note pro, it is recognized and formatted exfat or vfat.

However, when I format it in ext4 with my debian laptop, it is no more recognized by android : it says "corrupted".

This sounds strange to me as I already had a 64Go micro sd card, formatted in ext4, which is well recognized by

the note pro 12.2 and another tablet, 10.1 2014 edition, with lineageos installed as well. This latest tablet does not recognize the 128Go, ext4 formatted, sdcard.

So it seems at first glance that one may use either a >64Go exfat/vfat formatted sdcard or a 64Go ext4 formatted.

Is there any way to overcome this limitation ?

I tried through adb and as root : "mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /storage/toto" : it DOES return an error : "invalid argument"

Thanks for your attention.

Regards
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] deb75:
Hi

I made further tests.

I tried to partition the 128 Go sdcard into two partitions lower than 64Go. I ended up with two corrupted partitions ...

Nevertheless, I reformatted the sdcard with 20Go/120Go partitions and installed linux on the first (and smallest) one. The linux rootfs is ext4.

I was surprised that android did no more consider the linux partition as corrupted : I can access it as usual..

---------- Post added at 12:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:36 AM ----------

Finally, I got the sdcard working as desired :

128 Go -> 20 Go ext4 for linux rootfs (linux-deploy)

-> 100 Go ext4 for android share

The only tricky part is that I had to format the second partition by installing a complete linux system on it with ext4 rootfs. It is then recognized by android.

I come across another problem.

I have a magnetic cover which locks the screen when I flip it backward, quite annoying. The magnet are probably too strong.

Is there a way to disable automatic lock with magnet detection ?

Is it dangerous to have somewhat powerfull magnet so close to the screen and the S-pen ?

Thanks for your attention.

I have Samsung 128 Gb U3 card that is currently split into two partitions, first is exfat and second is ext2 that were partitioned and formatted in Fedora 25 using gparted and my LineageOS ROM recognised both as soon as I inserted the card, both partitions were readable and writable. I've not tried ext4, since I don't see the need of a journaling filesystem on this device, but it is close enough to ext2 that it should work. I need to re-partition and format the card anyway, maybe I'll try ext4 on it and see what happens. The only reason I was splitting the card was because an app I have can't see my music on the SD card - sort of like Google Music - and my library is too big to fit internally. I was going to use Link2SD to fix that app issue, and Link2SD needs a second partition on the card to use for themselves.

What is it you are trying to accomplish? Are you trying to make two partitions, or just one? Why do you want the card foratted with ext4 instead of exfat? I had my card as a single 128gb card using exfat and it worked great - in the tablet and in both my Fedora 25 and Windows 7 laptops.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] deb75:
Hi

Thanks for your answeer.

I wanted to split my sd card into two partitions. The 20Go one is to be used by linuxdeploy. This app will install a complete linux system on this partition. The other partition with remaining space is for android external storage purpose. I do not use windows on my laptop, so I do not need a compatible format (vfat, exfat), so why not format the second partition with a filesystem dedicated to linux. This is why ext4.

For some reasons I do not know, android does not recognize the ext4 filesystem, says corrupted, when it is created from my linux laptop system.

But it does recognize it when it is created by an android app (like linuxdeploy).

I wanted ext4 because, as I have only linux os on my hardware, I can better handle file ownership and rights, as well as symlinks.

Ah I understand now. Understand about not using Windows formats, but unfortunately, most people and products still live in the Windows world first, everything else second if they have the time. I keep the Windows 7 laptop for one application that has a USB copy-protection keylock for the program. I use Linux for everything else, have for years now. Hoping my wife gets rid of that program... ;)

Not sure how much help this is, but found this little gem on the SD Card Associations website https://www.sdcard.org/developers/overview/capacity/

It states that ExFAT is the "official" format for SDXC cards over 32Gb in size. I've run into problems with SanDisk cards and USB drives before only taking "Windows formats" (FAT16/FAT32/ExFAT/NTFS) - some 64 Gb worked fine as ext2, others would format fine but say corrupted when I tried to use them - this from my Linux laptops. Just curious, do you have any flags set on the partitions? If not, try setting one with something like gparted and see if anything happens...

Reformatting my Samsung 128gb card now, have a 16gb EXT4 and a 106gb ExFAT set just to see what happens on the tablet.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] deb75:
I partitioned my sdcard with cfdisk as if it was a hard disk drive, with no particular flags on partitions.

If I had more time, I would certainly have paid more attention on the partitioning and filesystem formatting processes.

Sandisk provides one specific partitioning tool for their sdcards.

It seems sdcards need special attention (and flags) for this step.

Maybe, formatting sdcards with ext4 also requires specific adaptations in order to run well,

which could be one reason for android not accepting the linux formatting.

Hi

In order to update the unofficial lineageos. I have to :

- boot into recovery mode

- make a backup

- wipe cache and dalvik cache

- make a dirty flash of the new unofficial build

- eventually flash other zip (root, gapps)

Am I correct ?

Do I need to wipe other things ?

Will I lose my settings or installed apps ?

I was actually pretty happy just using Nova.

BUT, I want to merge my internal memory and sd card. I would like to keep all my comixology comics downloaded. The app only allows internal memory storage and I'm out of space. I read that after marshmallow you can use sd as internal memory. I also would like to use more apps in split screen.

I will still need video calls ,pen to work for drawing apps, music, and Netflix.

Is lineageOs for me? My only experience was when I rooted and flashed my Note 1.

I'm reading through the thread backwards now, but any advice appreciated. Thank you.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Yemble:
Advice... yes, don't do it !

Merging the storage is a bad idea for any Android device as it will compromise general performance. However, with this particular ROM, external SD performance is already at 50% of what it should be, so merging it with the device storage will just cripple performance across the board.

What possible benefit are you expecting to gain by doing this?

Remember that Lineage gives you root access and that there are apps out there for moving apps and data from device storage onto external SD.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] thompatry:
Just a heads up, from this lastest weekly, we have included OMS support. All you need to do is go download the Substratum app from the Play Store.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] michaelsammler:
Thanks for your reply Yemble.

Comixology is the app I use the most on my tablet. It is a digital comic book reader/store. The app does not allow comics to be downloaded to external storage. If comics are moved from internal storage, the app will not read them.

My internal storage is full, my sd is not. So far, merging the two was the only way to address my storage issue. I would like to download my complete library to my tablet.

I have already moved everything I possibly can from internal storage to the SD.

It sounds like I should start a new thread that deals with this issue since Lineage OS sounds like the wrong way to go.

Have you contacted the Comixology app developer to register your disapproval? Don't forget that any such restrictions affect Android 7 devices in exactly the same way as Lineage OS, which is itself based on Android 7.1.2. The developer is potentially cutting off a potential revenue stream by imposing such a draconian measure. Personally, I'd have a rant on their forum and see if they respond ( support@comixology.com ).

Thank you for your suggestion. I have been messaging Comixology both before and after Amazon purchased them. Maybe four years now. At least once a year. I always get the same response and I see many people with the same complaint when googling a solution. Everyone gets the same answer. "We do not implement that feature at this time, but we will pass it on to the developers so they are aware of your issue." Or something like that.

would it be possible to enable the lineage os updater in this rom and modify it to point to the exynos5420 jenkins server? or is there a reason why that would be bad idea?

it's not like it's particularly inconvenient to manually check for and install updates, it would just be a nice touch if the rom could notify when there's a new build in the exynos5420 server and download and install it, like the official builds do.

I've been using this rom for a few weeks now, i stuck with the lineage 13 rom for quite a while. very happy with it, as of the last couple of charges the battery life has become insanely good, the best I've ever seen it.

I read some of the hundreds of forum posts on the Magisk site and concluded that there was a high degree of risk associated with it. On the contrary, the SuperSU and SuHide forums have far fewer "posts of doom". In the main, SuperSU seemed the much less risky route, especially since I have been happy using SuperSU for many years on many devices, without ever encountering an issue with it.

You do need to get the latest beta versions of both products and also a recent version of TWRP (I use 3.1.1) for it to install correctly. You can verify success with the SafetyNet Helper app downloadable through PlayStore.

Although I have not used it on my Note Pro, I have installed it successfully on a Moto X Force and two Moto X Style phones. All three pass the SafetyNet tests and Pokemon Go has been proved on one of the phones.
