Hi!

Going back on OTA, today I downloaded the update (05/15), pressed install and the system booted to recovery, but the rom wasn't installed.

I am using the latest TWRP Recovery 3.1.0-1.

Waht could I have done wrong?

Regards

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] _RoRo_:
Same for me. I looked into the data folder, as the update is supposed to be stored at the following location: /data/data/org.lineageos.updater/app_updates

But the folder was empty. I ended up downloading and installing the whole rom.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] jmendezk:
In my case, the download file was in the folder.

Are you using the new twrp? Which I said to use a few days ago and is on the first page? :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] jmendezk:
Yes, downloaded from link posted in OP.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
hm interesting ill look into it
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] jmendezk:
Double checked.

Downloaded the recovery again and flashed it.

Clicked install to the update through OTA.

Goes into recovery, but doesn't install.

With the crazy decision by Netflix, could you move in favor of a kernel or whatever is responsible that could pass the SafetyNet check?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
Nope, Official Lineage does not allow it, as it means we are lying to users about security, which we will not do. You can take our kernel from our github, add whatever is needed, build it and flash it (which loses support from me as the OP says), or flash the lineage SU addon, enable it, then flash magisk and use magisk hide and it comes back :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] zsoltsandor:
Right now SELinux is permissive, isn't it? Enforcing would be a better option I guess.

If I flash the Lineage su first and then flash Magisk in TWRP it will work normally? If I install Magisk Manager via Play and then install Magisk from the manager I usually end up without any root whatsoever. :D

Again, SafetyNet works on Galaxy S5, with vanilla Lineage OS, without LineageSU, but Magisk only.

Is this an Exynos nonsense again?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Falcon204:
Just download Netflix from Apkmirror http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/netflix-inc/netflix/ make sure you have unknown sources checked in security and then install it. I couldn't live without my Netflix and I couldn't download it from the play store so went to Apkmirror and problem solved. That's how I got passed the stupid block from Netflix.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] zsoltsandor:
Still, I would not get updates, and won't know if there is an update, I guess.

Btw I tried the LineageSU first, then Magisk, but no luck, still mismatch.

I could try SELinux Toggler, but it's not guaranteed to work with Magisk. :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ElsaReyes:
Netflix installed through Google Play Store for me today.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Falcon204:
Once I added Netflix it updated twice already for me through the Google play store. Notice my screenshot you can see that Netflix updated a little while ago.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
Nope it's set to enforcing as per lineage official rules :).
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
It's not that it won't update, you just can't find it on the play store by default because of all the Google certification stuff they added. If you have it already it should continue working correctly.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
This is what I did :p
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] _RoRo_:
Is anybody using the muzei app on this rom? It doesn't refresh the wallpaper on my tab
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] pmgnet:
Thanks for clearing that up! I was very confused that it was assumed to be something else.

For me, it seems this whole security model would be much easier on Android if the full suite of commands were easily understood and accessible from the shell, or were fully incorporated into a few popular file system explorers.

I have a Plex Server plugin (HDHRPrime) that I'm frequently messing with on my nvidia shield tv, and getting to and understanding the CLI utilities is pretty awkward. I thought that busybox would have wrapped all these up by now, but key commands are still missing.

My googling around for docs and easy to follow instructions hasn't panned out so far.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] gserp4sox:

And the auto ota update also stuck in TWRP 3.1.0-1
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] _RoRo_:
TWRP released a new version of the recovery on may 13, v3.1.1.0. i've installed it and I'll try next Monday how the auto update goes
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] jmendezk:
Installed new recovery and tryed OTA with 05/15 ROM.

System just boots into recovery and doesn't install the ROM.

Besides of this the updater shows a new version is available for the already installed version on reboot here (daily check).
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] 4Nails:
Wow. First ROM in a long time not to have immediate root. Totally forgot how to root! So can somebody help a brother out by leading me to a source appropriate for the ROM? Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] C0derbear:
Lineage has an add-on that is flashable, to enable root. Not a big deal.

https://download.lineageos.org/extras
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] 4Nails:
Thanks man.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Tchk856:
2 easy questions,

Su arm is the correct add-on for root?

And I'm not sure how to manually update this, just reflash the new ROM? I'm not sure where the update is going I'm downloading
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] 4Nails:
Yeah I was going to ask the same thing.

Downloaded and flashed but no root.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
yes flash the lineage addon if you want root. To update, just download from the link in the op , wipe dalvik and cache and then just flash.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Tchk856:
First of all, let me say thank you so much man ! You guys did a hell of a lot work n it looks n runs great!

With that said its probably just me but does this ROM just charge really slow while I use it. Its telling me. 14 hrs until its charged lol,

Or am I missing some setting to turn up the voltage on the charger? If someone knows great, if not don't worry about it.

Either way great job guys and thx

RESOLVED: I resolved my charging issues by installing "deathly auditor"

Thanks for the suggestions!

Another amazing job on this app.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ElsaReyes:
I have a question to ask, does anyone else here happen to use the music app Rocket Player? Since I think the time 7.1.2 came out the app hasn't seen my sd card. If anyone else uses Rocket Player are you having this same problem? Cause I don't have enough room on my actual tablet to fit my music, or I need it to be able to see my sd card.

---------- Post added at 03:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:39 AM ----------

Okay I confirmed it's 7.1.2.

I went on my other tablet still on 7.1.1 and updated to the latest version of Rocket Player on it as well, and it recognizes the sd card just fine.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
Check your charger, if that's fine download deathly adituor from the play store (made by us) and change the voltage in and out.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ElsaReyes:
Okay, it's not the rom. I clean flashed 7.1.1. earlier and just now AICP and same thing. So it seems it's a problem between the app itself and the tablet not the rom. :3

Though if someone could check on their own tablet that'd be great. Just encase it's something wrong with my specific tablet.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] _RoRo_:
Download ampere or accubattery, and check how much you charge. My battery charges around 1200-1400mah
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Tchk856:
So I was only getting 650 with the screen on, when I ticked the option to ignore whether screen is off or on I was getting 1000.

Not exactly sure what I was getting before but I know if I was using my tablet and had it plugged in it would charge in about 2

Hours. I think I'm gonna buy a new charger and post back. I might have screwed it up messing with the voltages.

I know this isn't the exact right place for this but is their a button to reset all

The sliders in deathly auditor? Or do I just need to clear cache and data or reinstall to reset everything?

BTW whenever you get sick of me asking stupid questions you can just tell me to stop Los
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] _RoRo_:
Well in my case, the original cable was faulty, instead of the charger. My tab charges just fine with my phone USB cable.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Tchk856:
I got 2 more questions if anyone can spare me a minute or two of their precious time.

1 Is this ROM deodexed, or is their anyway for me to figure that out?

2 is this where I post questions about apps I can't get to work on this ROM, (samsung gametuner)

or is this just for operating system questions?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] _RoRo_:
I don't know for question 1, but from the googling I made a few weeks ago, it looks like Samsung apps only work on Samsung ROMs. Maybe someone can confirm this?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] robhug:
Of course they need Samsung framework to work. Try and you will see that the installation will fail or if and app installed successfully it will crash if you open it, that's why it's so hard to build aosp on Samsung devices (expect the latest Samsung internet 5.4x.x.. Works great , you can get it on apkmirror)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Tchk856:
So basically no Samsung will work on this ROM since all the Samsung bloat has been removed.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
Not that Samsung bloat has been removed, this is different software then samsung uses. This closely resembles google stock android basically, with a bit more customisation. I recommend looking up lineageos etc before you do anything further as flashing roms with not much knowledge isnt the best :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Tchk856:
To be honest I'm just trying out different stuff and learning as I'm going, not having gametuner anymore isn't a big deal, I just need to find an app

That keeps all my games and adjusts resolutions and keeps stats on them for me.

Rather then me ask a million questions about the ROM I figured it would be easier just to try it right?

Either way thanks again for your time and efforts.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ElsaReyes:
Excuse me, I was just wondering, I'm tired of having to resetup my apps and configure all the settings and load the stuff into them every time I clean flash my tablet, so I was wondering, in Titanium Backup, do I backup the apps and system data to avoid needing to do all that? Or just the apps? Or is TWRP backup better to use? And if so what do I backup in that?

Hello,

When do you enable the fingerprint sensor please ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] robhug:
No support for fingerprint (I mean it's not working and it's completely disabled so no fingerprint and sadly it's not planned to make it work )

---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:51 AM ----------

I just have it now , while on Google + (yes I'm using it , for apps community etc) and whyle scrolling I got total freeze , and only a few apps in background so the ram wasn't full or something like that. The first time after a long time. (Latest 15.05 official)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] C0derbear:
Pretty sure the LOS team doesn't explicitly "support" restoration of apps via TiBu (as that restores running and data states pre-os-update so may contain incompatible state).

However,

I've done it a fair amount without issue, so YMMV but it may help.

But,

Don't include System Data, only user Apps [+App Data.]
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Eddie Hicks:
With Titanium Backup I backup everything but only restore apps and app data. I don't think you want to restore system files. Also some apps like Nova Launcher has data backup feature.

---------- Post added at 07:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 AM ----------

I'm having the same issue. I'm using the TWRP version as instructed in the OP. When I start OTA update, it indicates that the update was downloaded. When I start the installation it opens TWRP but nothing else happens. Also I cannot find where the OTA update downloaded to. I used 3 different file explorers including Root Explorer trying to find it. I appreciate if someone can tell what I may be doing wrong ? Thanks

You dirty flashed in guessing? Try wiping cache and dalvik cache in twrp. If it doesn't help do a clean flash. Most likely a rogue app
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] benoitb85:
I installed an SD card as adopted storage.

When I look at the storage in settings, I see the 14.68GB internal volume and my 29.01GB SD card. However when looking at files with a File Explorer (MiXplorer), I see I have only 2.79GB free out of 11.58GB to store files.

When I used another device with also LineageOS 14 (Moto G), I remember I could store files on my adopted SD card.

How does it work ? Will it start using the SD card's space when the internal is getting full ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Eddie Hicks:
Thank you very much. I wasn't aware of that app. Took me a minute to figure out how to use it, but I got it done. [emoji4]
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] rolins:
Is there any risk when flashing the rom, like a brick, bootloop, etc.?

Edict:

I can flash the opengapps instead of the proposals in the post

Forgive my level of English
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ElsaReyes:
Okay so forgive my ignorance on this matter, but things like Do Not Disturb, and Data Saver. Do they help save battery or do they drain it faster?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] robhug:
No it's ok , even if you download the wrong rom, like for an other device , TWRP won't flash the file and will tell you the file is wrong . In general if you do things correctly it's ok .

Of course there is always risk with custom ROM but just folow the guide and it will be fine :) and most of the problem like bootloop can be fixed in seconds with twrp, just do a nandroid backup

For open gapps I don't know if it was a question but if you flash open gapps the setup wizard will constantly crash so with beangapps mini I had no issues
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ElsaReyes:

Darkexistence, do you know if theme engine will be added to the rom at some point by the lineage developers
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Falcon204:
Thanks for bring this to our attention, app works perfectly ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
Most likely not in N, O I am unsure.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] robhug:
CyanogenMod had a great theme engine until mm, when we begin to talk about lineage os replacement many said that substratum will replace it but since months no news about. A few months ago I was sure that they will support it, but now I really don't think so. If we think about it lineage is almost the only one that provide a ROM as close as stock as possible, no extra features and very stable . A lot (almost every others) are heavily customizable with tons of options including substratum. As lineage is a" base " for many ROM now I think it's great to have a ROM that ok isn't very customizable but we know that it works great

(And we have aicp and rr too )
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] C0derbear:
I'm with rubhug,

Having at least one very solid clean "base" is useful and helpful.

The clean / minimalist base will always be the one I'd go after for personal use - being a less-is-more kind of guy - heck my Linux desktop has zero shortcuts on it- but I'm probably in the minority.

anybody have problems with their launchers crashing? Tried Nova launcher and Action launcher. After a while they both will jsut repeatedly crash. Did fresh flash,no dirty. Other than that everything is working well.

I wouldn't ask if i would of seen some clear and major updates. Maybe we don't see all those new improvements because our OS is not a pure nougat but a lineage nougat. Like cyanogenmod was not like the real marshmallow etc.,

How to install the kernel only?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] pmgnet:
Yeah, I get all that... and the features are mostly on the surface. I think your mileage is going to depend on usage patterns. For example, I've noticed that the boot time on N is markedly faster than M. But that's not really advertised anywhere I can find. In fact, it's touted more for the upcoming O code base.

noob help needed -

I had a heckuva time getting TWRP on the TM-800 - it was always rejecting twrp until I did a manual reboot to recovery... that was a fun time..

NOW - I try to install the lineage nightly - the newest - and when I try to flash the rom, I get error 7. I wiped dalvik - what else do I flash? I have the rom on the ext sd card along with the gapps zip. I don't want to wipe the ext sd - do I wipe everything else? Is that the issue?

I have TWRP 3.1.1.0 installed.

Any help greatly appreciated. I don't want to wipe anything I shouldn't.

Thanks in advance.

In the storage settings there is an option to transfer data if you go the internal storage and click the 3 dots in the upper right corner.
