I have been using this ROM since 29 January 2018.

So far no problems and I use the Tab A6 every day.

I have even gone through a re-install with no issues.

I am not sure why people are having problems installing this ROM.

You need to do a complete wipe: dalvik, cache, data, system before doing the install.

All 4 of the previous wipe items I do every time I install a new ROM, even if it is a new Samsung ROM.

I use Titanium Backup for apps and data and My Backup Pro for messages, sms, mms - before any new install.

It is important to have a clean install so the only operating system data on the Tab is written by the install you are doing. Any leftovers from a previous install may cause boot problems.

Unable to get LINEAGE-OMS-14.1 to work on my SM T285. I would appreciate your help.

Please let me know how you successfully flashed Lineage to the SM T285. I have been trying for weeks to get this right. Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] gcrutchr:
MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO THIS...just in case something goes awry

Regardless of the O/S you currently have installed, follow the directions.

Root is not required prior to these steps.

1. install TWRP 3.2.1-1_ashyx (use ODIN) - (uncheck auto-reboot...after install, manually reboot to recovery)

2. in TWRP, wipe: dalvik, cache, data, system

you can format system, data if you want...but at least do a wipe from advanced wipe menu.

reboot to download

3. in ODIN, install LINEAGE-OMS-14.1-20171209-UNOFFICIAL-SMT285-ALPHA.zip

reboot, go through setup, then reboot to TWRP...or uncheck reboot in ODIN and after flash reboot to TWRP recovery

4. in TWRP, install open_gapps-arm-7.1-micro-20180129.zip

Open Gapps Project

5. install nothing else

6. reboot

after system has booted and you have configured Lineage, you can set root access in settings|developer options.

If that does not work for you, reboot into TWRP and:

- install SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip in TWRP

you should now have a rooted Lineage O/S.

This is the bootloader I have installed:

Bootloader version: T285XXUOAQK2

Here is my TAB A hardware info:

Thank you. I have a few questions about the steps:

- Do I need to root the SM T285 before flashing LINEAGE-OMS-14.1-20171209?

- when you say "in recovery, wipe: dalvik, cache, data, system"- does this mean format system?

- I do not have "open_gapps-arm-7.1-micro-20180129.zip"- where can I get it from?

- Do I restart the system before installing open_gapps-arm-7.1-micro-20180129.zip?

Phone Audio

Hi, I installed this last week and since I'm trying to find a solution to a problem. I can't transfer audio to either bluetooth headset, wired headset or speaker while in a phone call. Any suggestions?

Many thanks.

Been able to Flash device. No Google Play book.

Success. Thank you. The step have not been doing is the advanced wipe and wiping the system.

It is very good room. I flashed open_gapps-arm-7.1-micro-20180129 however was is no Google maps or Play book on the device.

When I tried to install Google Play books with play store or I was told that "your device isn't compatible with this version"

I have been able to install Google maps by flashing an older version of open gapps (open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20161023-UNOFFICIAL.zip).

I use Google Play Book a lot, please help.

Now able to install google maps and play book. GPS not working.

GPS is not working. Google maps only works if connected to wifi. Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] gcrutchr:
Google maps is working for me without wifi...just tested it.

Have not tried GPS.

My suggestion: Google is your friend.

I have been a developer for a long time. Asking questions on XDA is a last resort. I spend time searching for answers on XDA and using Google search. In the process of searching I have learned a lot.

Also, understand that this ROM is an 'ALPHA' version - pre-BETA - and may have issues with things not working or things not working properly. Currently, I am unable to build an up-to-date version of Lineage for the TAB-A...well, actually, I can build it, but it will not boot. I am trying to find out why it will not boot.

If you want to use a custom ROM, try to learn a little about the ROM you are planning on using. Remember, this software provided on XDA-Developers is free. The developers spend a lot of time trying to make things work properly. Rather than constantly asking questions or asking for new features, users should embrace learning a little about the software they want to use or at least learn about using custom software (pros/cons). Also learn how to gather system information by getting logcat, kmesg, and dmesg files. These files will help developers resolve problems.

lock screen unlock

another issue-maybe a major one

fresh installation after a full wipe (cache, data, system)

basic setup (no gapps, no root nothing else) no google no wifi connect-so a very basic setup

set lock screen to swipe mode (so very basic there too no pin no pattern etc)

no f2fs just straightforward setup

the screen will not unlock - repeated swipes trying to even drag all the way to the top or sides

has happened now on two installations from full wipe

pulldown from the status bars/tiles also will not hold - can peek but it retracts instantly back up

other issues of mtp/ftp not working, auto network time not being set ...also file manager does not work (does not see any files, says need permissions

please port lineage 14.1 to 10.1 version 2016 TAB A T580
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
Yeah that lock screen thing is weird. However if you click on a notification though. it does correctly bring up the pattern unlock screen. If you have usb debugging enabled, it always shows up as an notification. For the MTP/usb related bugs, turns out there is an issue with installd misbehaving and causing adbd to crash. Will put out a fix soon, as for the lock screen I'll see if it is an upstream issue that needs to be fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
thanks jedid...yes lockscreen is odd as it is working fine in your first version of this rom

EDIT I do not use the PIN option always have it on swipe (nothing to hide..lol)

Question

Any way to get it work for 10.1?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
noticed on stock (reverted to it for some time) today an update for GPS...rare that these updates come by (could not install as the firmware was updated)...

maybe this may help tweak GPS on the CM/Lineage?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
Just uploaded a new build. The lock screen issue is still there though, but it should be tolerable with the workaround that I suggested.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
now the drives show up but nothing is seen in the drives-noticed an inconsistency in the prior build too-the notification for charging/file transfer that one can use to toggle does not match what is there in dev options. Dev options also has the same toggle...so I can change in one and it gets reflected in the other (developer menu and toggle in notification) but when I say unplug the device from usb port of laptop and plug it back in..the notification goes back to charging but the developer menu option stays at MTP (either way choosing one over the other does not result in seeing the drive contents-just the overall drives and sizes)...is this a driver issue? When i changed mode through developer menu it said installing driver and then failed. I tried revoke debugging authorization but did not help

Yes lockscreen pin workaround works (though a pain for me) Edit uh oh...if you swipe the debugging notification away...no way of unlocking the device even with the PIN.

any idea why the network time zone is not correctly read or even read at all? as it stays on GMT. (need to manually input it) This was an issue in the previous two builds as well

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
make sure you select "directly show pattern view" under pattern unlock settings. as for the network time zone not really sure could be apn issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
will be tough. the 10.1 doesn't even have the same chipset, I suggest you petition devs to support your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
I was using the PIN option..have gone back to the first Lineage ROM.

The network time should not have anything to do with the APN ..checked...yes that has to do with access to data and internet. Wonder if anyone's else has the same issue...hope others chime in here. Even the initial CM14.1 recognized the time..it is pulled either from WiFi or the cellular band based on location. I looked to see if location options would resolve the issue but it does not. So apparently it is seeing some kind of time GMT which is correct but it cannot associate beyond it with the SIM card/network/location.

I can not open files that are stored on the tablet, not through the native file manager, not through any other. When you turn on the screen unlock - can not unlock the tablet. When debugging on usb - the computer does not see the files on the phone. The camera does not work (but it was in the description for the firmware). And so, of course, everything is on top, continue in the same spirit - good luck to you! I apologize for the semantic errors, because I do not know English and translated through an interpreter :)

Halfway through fixing GPS

Thanks for your work!

I tried fixing GPS myself, managed to get driver to load at least. It still seems like there is an issue on the level of libloc (if I understand the GPS architecture correctly), since GPS doesn't see any satellites.

To get the driver to load`

Patched libraries` drive.google.com/open? id=link_no_longer_active (Sorry, it seems like I can't upload/post links directly until 10 posts)

linicuuc.so is icu56 (from LineageOS tree) compiled with icu51 exports for compatibilty. Replace it in /system/libs.

libool.so and libcrptoo.so are OpenSSL libssl.so and libcrypt.so. Since Android 7 uses BoringSSL instead of OpenSSL, which has no SSL_ctrl exports I patched dependencies of both libs to import renamed OpenSSL versions. Place them into /system/libs.

gps.default.so is the driver patched to use libool.so/libcrptoo.so instead of system libssl.so/libcrypt.so. Replace in /system/libs/hw.

That being said, make backups just in case.

After patching apps will no longer complain about GPS being off, system will also detect usage of GPS module and display it on the status bar.

Still, I wasn't able to get signal from any satellites.

Are there any ways to turn on detailed logging for GPS? I wasn't able to see anything in logcat even with LOG_LEVEL=5. Maybe I'm missing something.
