Hi, I tried installing the Exynos build and it failed, I'm attaching an image of the screen. What did go wrong?

Edit: tried downgrading TWRP to 3.2.1.0, didn't worked either, I got the same error

Update: I managed to do it, it was failing because I forgot to do a factory wipe

Thanks a lot for the help!!!!

FYI just noticed a tremendous change in system folder structure when trying to flash dirty the 20210209 LOS onto the 20201215.

So flashing dirty doesn't really work.

Although P900 starts Magisk for instance doesn't work properly.

Edit after clean flash:

realised that the peculiar folder structure was a result of the dirty flashing although in the second try I've wiped "System" and P900 was working.

Now the structure is like I'm used to.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Andrex27:
Oh, sorry, I've probably misread the title of the thread.

However, unfortunately, the button is not the same as the one you suggested.

Thanks anyway for your reply.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
On my P605 2014 with LOS14.1 it's the right button.

Did you check button configuration in settings?View attachment 5225753
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Andrex27:
Thanks for your reply.

As you suggested I checked the settings and I noted that, in the buttons menu, there wasn't any button associated with recent apps, so I associated the central button long press to recent apps and now it works perfectly.

Thanks a lot for your help.

I installed the 14.1 version on the tablet, but there are 4 files in the update section, I download it and then I say install, it gives an installation error, I wonder why.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
What do you mean with update section?

I only do manual updates I've downloaded myself.

Which TWRP?

Was it working already on 14.1?

Clean install made?

Which bootloader you've got, i.e. which ROM were you coming from?

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@adige57 ok,so you're using the LOS updater.

As I wrote, I update manually.

If you want to do it differently it's up to you.

Doing it my way means flashing the downloaded file via TWRP.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] adige57:
Updates which one should I install with TWRP
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] adige57:
Where can I find updates
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
#1 has all necessary links.

Take the latest build.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@thompatry just wanted to mention that the sites from #1

Lineage Device Builds

Google Drive Device Builds (Old - Not maintained)

are both down.

Not needed by me as I take the nightlies, but perhaps it confuses others.

Thanks again for your work.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
A big thank you again to the community for this work. I have a recently purchased SM-P900 with orig vers 5.0 of android. Do any of the lineage flavors work without limitations yet? I'm mainly concerned about S pen working and mic/camera for zoom purposes.....and is there any battery penalty with the lineage vers? thanks again...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Well these ROMs, deathly or vanilla, are imo the best for P900.

Camera and everything else working except limited s-pen, but you won't find a custom ROM were this is fully working because of Samsung's unwillingness to give the devs all the code.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
Thank you. Dumb question but are deathly and vanilla actual operating systems...can you suggest one you like?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Vanilla is the pure ROM while Deathly has a special kernel fitted to use deathly adiutor to fiddle around with CPU governor and other core energy settings. Both nightlies LOS14.1. Links in #1.

I use Vanilla plus Kernel Adiutor to cut the highest CPU frequencies on my P900.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
Do you reduce the highest frequencies for extra battery life or? ALso is the S pen fully functional in 14.1 (vs 17) if that was important to me? thx!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Not only for battery, but for CPU life as well.

Imo the cooler it stays the longer it will live (hopefully).

S-pen I've pointed out above #1326 and both ROMs will be the same regarding its functionality.

But marking, drawing, writing, pointing that all works.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
are you ever switching over to Lineage vers 17...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Not until the camera is working
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
So i installed lineage 14 vanilla and gapps 7.1 full stock = magisk 20.0 .4. Everything worked....on the first try.. A first for me lol... but a cpl of things (as always)...

1) thanks for the info bmw - I appreciate the quick communication...

2) i d/l kernel aduciator (by willi ye apk ...cant spell it but you know what i mean)...i installed and granted root access...but I can't make sense of how to use...it just shows me the range of frequencies...i don't really know how to incorporate the features to improve battery life/cpu boost (or unboost i suppose depending on the application)....? so then i d/l deathly aduciator and it immediately warned me that because i did not use the deathly lineage vers it could not guarantee anything....(so i guess i cannot use it? or was that just a fake warniing)

3) i may have over did it with the full stock gapps and likely would be happy with the nano - is it easy to revert to nano from full stock?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
1. Glad I could/can help

2. Deathly adiutor needs a special kernel therefore only working with deathly ROM.

In kernel Adiutor you see a menu top left.

Open it, switch to kernel-cpu and you'll see the options.

3. Afaik you better flash all again as imo it's to much work to uninstall each you don't want manually via adb.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
i found the options on kernel Ad - there wouldn't be a preset for best overall settings...there seems to be a lot of switches...like low memory...cpu...etc....? you won't have your profile uploaded somewhere :)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Well, didn't think of that yet, but only thing I did was reducing CPU frequencies to 1700.

Fiddling around with other settings I wasn't brave enough 😉
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
Thank you. Its been pretty stable so far but I've had two random reboots so far while playing an online game. And also it disconnected wifi a few times randomly...hmmm...

do you have a link for the latest stable 14 link...i may have inadvertly d/l an experimental version...... the 2 main download links are down
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] dcarvil:
https://download.exynos5420.com/LineageOS-14.1-Deathly/v1awifi/ is still available.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
thanks...if i d/l a newer version...is there anyway to update the OS without losing all my settings....I've always had bad luck with"backup"...usually i can get the apps back but never the teaks...especially nova launcher for example....does the twrp backup work well for settings too....
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
I only update if ROM file size changes and do it usually very dirty (not wiping anything).

Even if I wipe just system and flash ROM, BitGapps and Magisk afterwards all my settings are kept.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
oh you prefer bitgapps vs reg gapps?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
yeah as they are even smaller than opengapps.

I think GoogleTTS isn't included but am not sure.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
btw - which bitgapps...there seem to be a few flavors ....im running lineage 14...

BiTGApps Official - ARM 12, 11, 10...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
As LOS14.1 is equivalent to Nougat it's gotta be 7.

BiTGApps

Hi

the bootloader link doesn't work. can everyone share download link?

thanks
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Think I've saved it but am not sure as mine got upgraded to 5.0.1 before switching to LOS so it wasn't needed.

Could dropbox this: BL_P900XXU0BPA1.tar.md5

Would it help?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@thompatry will there be further Vanilla builds as the v1awifi folder is empty right now?

Thx for your work again.

Mine is still on this build as I need the camera and it's rock solid.

No freezes, reboots or whatsoever.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] thompatry:
This should be fixed. I am running a build now. For some reason, the schedule got disabled on Jenkins.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Gorilla Daddy:
Hi, does it do pressure for the S-Pen? Tilt?

I also was wondering if (even on stock) does it do palm /finger rejection while using the S-Pen?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Can't tell about stock but should.

On this ROM palm rejection works on WPS Office.

Don't use any other. Could test for you.

"Tilt" "pressure" what do you mean?

Spen switch doesn't work.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] jcoltonj32001:

Dunno if @thompatry knows.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] thompatry:
I have fixed it. Thank you for letting me know. The vanilla build is up. The deathly build is building now. Sorry about that.

Hi to everyone. Anyone can use Zoom App on this rom? Other participants can hear me but I don't hear any sound. Any solution? Thanks.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Matiasbu:
Hola ozcann, también tuve ese problema con el micrófono.pude solucionarlo.soy nuevo en esto pero hice dos cosas, descargue magisk para darle privilegios al aplicativo deatly adiutor. También descargue addonsu-16.0-arm-signed.zip. todo lo hice desde twrp. Algo mas desintale zoom y lo volvía instalar y el micrófono ya funcionaba.

Lo que si no funciona es compartir pantallas en zoom. No se si habrá alguna solucion, lo dejamos a los que mas saben.

saludos.

Hi all,

Can anyone confirm which functions of the s-pen do/don't work with this rom on p900?

I now own the p900 solely for the purpose of note taking and illustration, so the s-pen is essential to me. This rom seems like my best option for this, but I would like to be sure.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Marking, drawing, writing.

Some report problems with palm rejection when using it.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] DigiNoteTaker:
Thanks. Can you recommend a rom that fully supports palm rejection for p900? I also need to be able to install latest versions of various note apps.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Ka992:
I already set it up as Portable.

The problem is that I have a lot of LectureNotes (app) data (around 35GB) on the SD card. I used to use a customized folder directory on the SD card that to store the data without losing them when formating/flashing the device in Android Lollipop ( 5.x).

Because of the new way Android 6.x and Android 7.1.x deal with the sd card I can't use the customized folder directory for LectureNotes when the Sd Card is set up as Portable. Which means I can not have full access to the SD card like in Lollipop.

I have tried the solution in this post ( https://xdaforums.com/android/software/fix-extsd-fix-v1-0b-2016-01-18-t3296266 ) to restore the accessibility of the SD card when it is set up as Portable portable but it didn't work.

I was hoping to find another way to fix it.

Thank you for your help.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] thools60:
OK. Couldn't you just transfer your data to your PC and then format the card for use in Android and the transfer it back, or am I stupid here?

It is the customised folder that is causing you issues, but I do understand why you do not want to accept Google's default folder. I have exactly the same issue with Alpine Quest and Titanium Backup.

I have found two solutions...

1) Use the Google DocumentProvider interface method for storing files if your app has this as an option. This is how Titanium Backup gets round this issue. The only restriction with this method is that it has a max file size limit of 2Gb (maybe less?). Ref: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/document-provider.html

2) With a root enabled editor, manually edit the ./data/system/packages.xml file and add in the required write permission for your app: <item name="android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE" granted="true" flags="0" />, then reboot. This is my solution for Alpine Quest which I use on several devices, both Marshmallow and Nougat. Be careful, however, as this solution will brick your device if you get the syntax wrong! Also, this mod needs to be reapplied every time the app is updated via PlayStore. Note, for safeties sake, I always take a copy of packages.xml to my PC and edit it there with a decent editor (UltraEdit), since it is a large file and you need to search for your app within it.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Yemble:
I can confirm that a dirty flash with cache wipe works without issue. OK Google is also working from all screens.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] doctor_pan:
Thank you for your effort!

It revived my sluggish SM-P900.

I'm doing some testing right now and I'll come back with my (if any) findings.

Thanks again!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] DGT79:
Thanks [MENTION=4817899]thompatry[/MENTION] for your hard work mate :)

So today I did as much testing as I possibly could to make sure that the ROM was as clean as possible for when it got posted to you guys.

So as you all know, "OK Google" or also known as "Google Voice Services" is now working, and I did multiple tests on it today to ensure it was, it is good to have this problem resolved now.

WiFi is still an issue, I have narrowed it down to a baseline issue that was introduced in 7.1 and 7.X.X, I am not sure if it can be resolved in a custom ROM but I am collating as much information as possible to get a fix for this issue.

I am experiencing video cropping issues, though I suspect no one else might be, but even with the new ROM the issue is fairly persistent, basically if a YouTube video starts as 480P and then scales up to say 720P or 1080P the video crops and you and you loose a fair bit of viewable content, it also does this in the browser as well when playing videos as well. If anyone else is experiencing this issue please post and let us know so we can work out of the issue is just isolated.

Casting is working quite well, much better than the last ROM, I did full test runs on this today to my LG WebOS TV and to my Samsung Smart TV, both worked really well.

Split screen is also working really well, I put that through its paces today and got some positive results that I was very wrapped in.

Ladies and Gents,

If you come across any problems please make sure to report them, and if you can either attach a log file.

Cheers,

David.

Good news everyone!! Lastpass is now working (at least as far as logging in, haven't tested further). I flashed the new ROM, cleared dalvik and cache then rebooted. I cleared data for the lastpass app, uninstalled it and then reinstalled it.

I don't know if the new rom fixed it or if it was me disabling the option to automatically restore settings when installing apps from the app store under backup/restore settings.

Thanks all, and especially [MENTION=4817899]thompatry[/MENTION] for the great ROM!!

Casting still isn't working for me, but since others have gotten it to work I think my TV is just too old for the new casting in nougat. It is a Samsung smart TV model UN60H6203 and hasn't had a software update since June 2015 or so

I am also getting video cropping in the IMDB app. After playing for about 5 seconds it only shows the top left corner of the video.

I haven't seen any cropping in the Youtube app or the Chrome/Atlas browsers.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] thompatry:
Hey Everyone,

Thanks again on the feedback. I can confirm LastPass is working. I will update the OP. Over the next couple of days, I will be working on getting MHL working, baking in the stock audio levels so they are default, and removing the red "SEANDROID" message from the boot screen when you boot the rom.

I do apologize for disappearing for so long. Managing, testing, and developing 5 devices is kind of hard to handle at times. Also, this "OK Google" and LassPass bug was definitely a doozy to figure out. What the issue was is that some where is the build process (I haven't determined where yet), the build tries to set product brand. If it is not set in the device tree, it will be defined as "Unknown". Well when you fire up "Ok Google" or LastPass, it needs the product brand to work correctly. I assume their analytics requires this information. This is why it was causing a memory error because the app did not know how to handle this situation. Now I am sure you are asking yourself, "That sounds like a build.prop thing. Why didn't he just add that line?" Well I thought that exact same thing but it didn't make a difference. Again sorry but I am super glad it is fixed. I made over 40+ testing builds over a 3 week span trying to debug the issue.

Alright, that is all I got for right now. Need to get back to developing and learning more. As always, feel free to donate me a beer . You can find my donate link in my profile or under my username on my post. If you have donated, thank you. Much is appreciated.

As always, keep giving the great feedback and I will keep putting out quality products for you. I really enjoy helping the Android community and reviving our fantastic tablets!

Since I updated to this rom last week, everything runs like a dream (except for one minor issue I am going to ask below). Again, really like to thank everyone working on this rom!

The only issue I have now is I can't view streaming videos in 2 apps, which are all from the same company - Optus, one the Australia network service provider. I suspect that the videos are DRM content that having problem with custom (or rooted) roms. Although this may not be a problem only related to this rom, just want to ask here to see whether there is any quick solutions.

The first app is "Yes TV by Fetch", which is to watch real time paid TV channels (such as ESPN). The app can be launched, but when starting streaming, the video shows "buffering..." for a few seconds (which should be the right behaviour), then shows an error: "Playback error: Stream DRM error Error code is 2000040", when I searched the web, the only useful info was from the Optus user forum, somebody asked why he got this error and the answer from Optus was their app won't support any rooted system. I tried to disable root in the "Development Options" then cleared the app's data and cache, but this didn't resolve the problem.

The second app is "Optus Sport" that streaming English Premier League matches and videos. I got a "Playback error, please reload and try again" error every time I started loading a video irregardless the "root" option is enabled or not.

Has anyone got similar issue and is there any hint for this? Thanks.
