Ok I could do without the samsung apps. I still need to know how I can root my samsung galaxy note pro 12.2 SM-P905V with Lollipop 5.1.1.

I have disabled Samsung TouchWiz interface but right now my tablet is all factory and runs like crap, somehow I need to root this thing but all my searching has come up empty.

Any help would be great!!

Hi [MENTION=4900763]shonkin[/MENTION]

This is normal and you should not worry about it, when the charger is connected you need to hold the power button in for longer, and typically until you see the Samsun logo come on the scree.

If this is not suitable for you, then you can disconnect the charge cable and then power it up which is quicker, but typically I dont turn the tablet off when in normal use, though lately [MENTION=4817899]thompatry[/MENTION] has had me do some coo testing on Nougat so shut downs were frequent, and I become skilled at turning it on with the cable connected [emoji6]

However there is nothing wrong with the tablet so dont worry [emoji2]

Cheers,

David.

Hi [MENTION=4817899]thompatry[/MENTION] thank you very much for this, I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year....!

Wow very fast!

I'm not sure if this is important but when installing I'm getting this message --> E:unknown command [log] --> see attached photo

Everything seem fine with the exception of when I install SuperSU and update the binary it goes fine until I restart, when restarted it hangs on CyanogenMod boot screen then I need to wipe everything and reinstall, I've tried mutable restarts and wiping Dalvik Cache.

Could this be caused by having the wrong bootloader? I struggle with this stuff and I honestly don't know what bootloader I have, when I click the link for latest bootloader all I see to download is ( Odin3_v3.10.6.zip and BL_P900XXU0BPA1.tar.md5 ) which I have downloaded but I don't see a tar file to download, same thing on both the computer and tablet.

Thank you:)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] thools60:
I have the same issue. And I'm on the latest lollipop bootloader. If you're on the KitKat bootloader, the ROM wouldn't boot at all. So you must have the right one. Well, not a problem really since root works through the system. But anyway....
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] shonkin:
Thanks. I began to suspect I'd also allowed the tablet to get dangerously low power-wise; things get a little dicey sometimes even if it is plugged in when the battery is reading 3% charge. Heh. Left it charging over night and things seem more stable this morning.

I've barely touched the Nougat split screen stuff yet. Will have to look up how to access / use that bit.

Looking great. So many thinks to you and all involved.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Don B:
Thanks for the info, from what I read that's how I understood it to be (wrong bootloader and it wouldn't boot) but when I was having the trouble with SuperUS I was wondering if I misunderstood.

Everything works fine without SuperUS, maybe it not necessary any more.....?

SPen removal/insertion detection is working for anyone that's interested.

Titanium backup is working if you copy the files to /sdcard/TitaniumBackup but the option to access the external SD Card doesn't seem to be there anymore.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] DGT79:
Hi [MENTION=7380785]Don B[/MENTION]

You dont really need to install SuperSU, jsut enabled developer mode, then turn on root access. Root is a default service within CM, it just comes disabled by default, which gives the user greater controll on wether they want to turn it on or not.

You will need to turn it on if you want to use Deathly Auditor, which I would highly recommend if you want to govern the charge rate and also the sound quality/loudness.

Cheers,

David.

Great Christmas present and a great send-off for a long-time ROM.

Here's to the new year and hoping that Tom is inspired by the new LineageOS and can keep our old friend well equipped in the new year!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Manya3084:
Great work. Everything is running perfectly, although I was naughty and dirty flashed over CM13 ;)

This will keep the tablet going into 2017, and we'll see what happens now with CyanogenMod now that's going to be gone forever.

OmniRom or LinageOS?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] DGT79:
Hi [MENTION=3018712]Manya3084[/MENTION]

I did a dirty flash during the testing process, and I can say that it was OK for a bit then it went downhill after that, I would highly recommend doing a clean flash, this will ensure the best longevity out of the install and the best experience as well.

How I did the install to ensure best operating smoothness:

1. Used TWRP to backup the data, I did a full backup as I have about 117 apps installed

2. I do an advanced wipe and I wipe every single thing, so I pretty much tick all the boxes

3. I Install 7.1.1 and then choose the Option to wipe Dalvik (Assuming you are running latest TWRP) it should be a button, if not then go into advanced settings and wipe Dalvik/ART cache

3. Install GApps and then Wipe Dalvik/ART Cache again

4. Boot into system and activate the system, so go through the full setup process, once completed shut down

5. Boot into recovery and then load your backup and all should be loaded back up

WARNING! Recovering a backup from a previous version is actually not recommended, I found apps glitching badly and some forced closures and instability issues, so in the end (During the testing process) I ended up wiping it clean one last time and rebuilding from scratch, and then making a backup of everything once it was rebuilt, so any future releases from [MENTION=4817899]thompatry[/MENTION] would be able to take a recovery

If you guys are not happy with the default Google Camera, through my research I found quite an amazing camera application called "Open Camera" and it has amazing settings and capabilities, so many give that a shot from the default camera :)

Anyways, it is Xmas here in Australia so Merry Xmas to you all, I truly hope you all enjoy the hard work that [MENTION=4817899]thompatry[/MENTION] put into getting this out quickly with the rest of the dev team, and you all have an enjoyable and safe Xmas.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] DGT79:
Hi [MENTION=7737935]SSam96[/MENTION]

This is dependant on the launcher, right now I am using the Pixel Launcher which does not have it, but you can download something like Nova and that will allow you to do it.

I am unsure of other ways to do it.

Cheers,

David.

(PS) I will research if there is a way to do it natively on 7.1.1 without the need of a new launcher, but that will take time as I am running around seeing family for Xmas at the moment.

Hi [MENTION=7644677]risant[/MENTION]

I wouldnt worry too much as [MENTION=4817899]thompatry[/MENTION] and the other devs maintain this ROM version, which is why it is unofficial CM version, though I am not eniterly sure of the need for nightly updates at this stage, if there are any serious security concerns I am sure that the dev team will ensure that they are patched.

Hmm. Intriguing. I have a Mac laptop (Mavericks on it right now, it's old). Would it be able to write to NTFS, I wonder? And... does NTFS work as safely on a microsd as exfat (this one being a Samsung Evo 128g)?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Yemble:
Everything that I've read on-line about NTFS support within Android seems to suggest that it is not supported natively by the OS and that addition drivers (eg. Paragon) are required in order to use it. Is this the case for Lineage 14.1? If so, then I am not quite sure of the benefit of swapping from one non-supported Microsoft FS (exFAT) to another (NTFS), especially as the NTFS drivers are not free!

This all just sounds like a smoke-screen to me. The Lineage developers should just fix the thing that

they

have broken, ie. exFAT support.

Bluetooth Not Staying On

I just recently installed latest version (14.1-20170304-UNOFFICIAL-v1awifi) and everything seems to be working so far even after installing gapps.

But bluetooth does not stay turned on and turns off as soon as it's turned on.

And LineageOS updates check does not work when I hit update button on top right corner. It says "The update check failed. Please check your internet connection and try again later." even when I'm connected to wifi on my router.

Everything else is okay. Apps work, Chromecasting entire tablet to my Nvidia Shield also works, and splitscreen option is nice addtion on a large tablet.

Should I try "lineage-14.1-20170304-UNOFFICIAL-v2awifi.zip" instead and start from scratch?

What is difference between v2 and v1?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Yemble:
v1awifi is correct for the NotePro P900. Anything else will break the WiFi at the very least!

I've just paired my P900 with my Moto X Force phone without any issues.

This ROM is unofficial, so the official Lineage update mechanism is not implemented. Updates are via the first page of this thread.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] shonkin:
Okay, so I bit the bullet and: 1. backed up my microsd card onto my imac; 2. Installed the 3/04/17 LineageOS 14.1 onto my 12.2 pro; 3. reformatted the card with it as external storage; 4. took it back out and restored the files from my imac onto it; 5. put the card back into my tablet and it found all the files, no problem.

I'm still quite curious as to what, exactly, this version of Lineage did to the card vs what previous versions did to it (which was nothing). Forgot to check if it was reformatted as win32 vs exfat.... But it is working now. So there's that. ;)

Thanks again.

Hi

I feel like it stutters abit especially when I am browsing apps in trbuchet (which is where it it most visible). Sure I can use another launcher but that is not the issue. I am more worried about performance. Is there a way to fiddle the settings tyo improve the performance ?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Yemble:
Why don't you just install Nova and compare its performance with Trebuchet? There is no cost to this simple test, other than a bit of your time.

Nova is the first app that I install on all Android devices and I am not aware of any "stuttering", although it is not really clear what you mean by this.

Hello all,

I am a little afraid to upgrade to latest version of this ROM. Can we do a little overview of the situation ? If I upgrade (from 02/04 version), I will have a SD card error (my SD card is exFAT formatted), isn't it ? I can solve this problem if I reformat my card in FAT32, and restore content, if I have well understood. And further upgrades shall be good ?

I will have also possibly bluetooth problem, wich I can solve with GPS/bluetooth configuration, am I right ?

Besides this problems what are the benefits to upgrade to latest versions ?

Thank you for your answers.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] glitch2500:
Honestly, part of working with these is knowing that sometimes things break. If you're worried about stuff breaking, make a backup of your state in your preferred fall-back. The 2/4 version was pretty good. Sometimes things break.. Sometimes things get fixed. Somethings things stay the same. Nature of the beast. Thats why I install and test things. I'm holding out for MHL audio and for the video zoom fix to be rolled into the ROM. What are you holding out for?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] 00bofh:
Hoping someone can offer up some hope for me...

I was in the process of removing the OtterBox case I use to keep my P900 protected (removing the SD Card for PC backup - reformat to deal with the "corrupt" issue), and the rubber shell put enough pressure on the power switch during the struggle that it started the power-on cycle, and then interrupted the cycle into what I thought was power-off.

Now, tablet seems "dead". It won't power-on, and when plugged into the charger it no longer shows the battery icon /charging animation.

The usual tricks have been tried, holding power button for up to five minutes, power button plus one or both of the volume buttons for up to five minutes, power plus home plus volume (one or both) for up to five minutes.

Have I finally let all the magic smoke out of my favorite tablet?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] rhricik447:
As a last resort, you could try taking the back off and disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes or so, then reconnecting it and powering up.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] dwl99:
Even though the screen is blank, try connecting with adb - this brought my Tab S 8.4 back from a similar state.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Yemble:
Correct. Due to bugs, exFAT cards will not be properly recognised and you will be forced to reformat as FAT32. This will change the internal id of the card which, in turn, may shaft the ability of certain apps to write to it. OSMAND+ being a case in point.

So there are some nasty consequences to this latest ROM which is why I am so pissed off about it!

Note that I am not aware of the BT issues, but 2.4GHz WiFi will not detect channels 12 & 13 in Europe, which it should.

Hi [MENTION=2563714]00bofh[/MENTION]

I have seen this issue before, typically the powerbutton can get jammed from grit and dirt (Which is normal) that typically gets deposited in the button locations over time, it is one of the downsides of some protective cases, they are so good that they trap material in them and have no way of releasing them, it is good practice to remove any covers on mobiles or tablet every so often and clean the device with alcahol wipes, and the cases.

If cleaning the power button does not work, you then have to explore the following options:

1. Removing the back cover and disconnecting the battery, waiting about 15 minutes for any residual power to dissapate, can then reconnect it - If you do that, then you should not put the cover back on untill you have booted it back up, also take this opp to clean around the button and connector areas, even the SD card slot should be cleaned.

2. Remove any MicroSD cards, disconnect the Power cable and then "Hold Power Button Down for 10 seconds" at the 10 sec mark Press "Volume UP" at whist keeping power button pressed for another 5 seconds. This should reset the booting of the device assuming there is no issues with your charger or battery

3. Check your charger source and just make sure that it has not gone belly up all of a sudden, that is not entirely out of the realm of possabilities, go find a charger that is a minimum of 2AMP, then find a Micro USB cable, not the USB 3 style and use that to charge it with, most M-USB can support 2AMP, this will help eliminate charger and cable issues

4. Wait about 2-4 days for the battery to discharge enough to maybe jog the memory cells in it, yeah it is a pain in the ass that you have to wait, but sometimes I have worked on devices where I have waited 1-2 weeks before they come back to life

None of the above is bullet proof, but it may help bring it back to life and it may help with diagnosing it. Just keep in mind that the P900's are well known for having battery issues and power issues, it is well document all over the internet including here, and I have also written up on this before on the battery issues and how to change it.

Cheers,

David.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Yemble:
Thank you for fixing what should have not been broken in the first place :D

Unfortunately, I fear that it is too late for OSMAND+, as re-formatting back to exFAT will not restore the original SD card ID. Do you know of a way of forcing Android to re-request SD card access permissions for installed apps?

I will test exFAT compatibility in the new ROM with a different SD card, prior to re-formatting my 128Gb SanDisk (again).

I will report back shortly...

Testing video on the 3/11 build and it looks like the video zooming fix didn't get rolled in to this one. Adding the libstagefright.so file manually per the previously described procedure and rebooting seems to still fix. Bluetooth seems to be good. My keyboard and my headset seem to work ok. Haven't had a chance to test the sd card since i rolled it over to FAT32 after the last breakage. Will test it later and report back.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] 00bofh:
Thanks to all who posted.

So far:

ADB is a bust, as is disconnecting the battery at the mainboard, waiting five to fifteen minutes (I actually waited 24 hours) and re-connecting.

Battery has been pulled and replaced, both old and new show good voltage on a Digital Multimeter, but new remains in place.

All buttons have been checked and have positive "click" in and out. Contact cleaner that is "sensitive electronics safe" has been used and buttons plus usb and SD sockets have been cleaned /flushed.

Power button for ten-plus seconds, followed by VOL+ for five seconds, no dice. Same for VOL- in that sequence.

Charger checked and the USB volt/amp plug I have shows it is generating 2.01A at 5.03VDC.

Left it plugged in for about an hour, still no charge screen and no "warmth" to the battery.

Unless there's another "Hail Mary" (and I am going to disconnect before I turn in for the evening and let it sit until the weekend as recommended), it seems time for the usual Star Trek quote "It's worse than that, it's dead Jim!"

I appreciate all the ideas and help, but if I can't revive it, I have to shift on - used /refurb P900's are running in the $600USD range, and New-Old-Stock is about double. That said, if anyone runs a "recovery" business and will work on condition of restoring function, I'll be happy to discuss your fees...
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] DGT79:
Hi [MENTION=2563714]00bofh[/MENTION]

It truly is not worth buuying another one to be honest, the new Samsung Chrome books that work with Android apps is more of a viable option with a starting point of $499USD.

They are more powerful, just as versatile and actually weigh quite similar, but have a full OS as well (I have already started to see ports of Libre Office going onto Chrome Books).

That is what I am upgrading to shortly, I am not spending another dime on this tablet, it has served its purpose just fine for the last two years and it is EOL now anyway :)
