the gapps 7.1 pico 20161024 worked without any dalvik wipe (not sure what happened earlier but suspect it was because i used a full stock although of the recommended timeframe of oct 2016 (7.1 only goes back to that month anyway)

Used it the whole day..calls text mms browsing

root explorer would not work (blank screen upon opening)-am using Fx explorer (root which does a great job anyway especially if pasting entire folders into system app/priv-app folders-sets the permissions automatically and correctly)

camera does not work known anyway (was not coming up on 2nd/3rd try)

lte signal similar to cm13 (omni is still fastest to get on and stick)

but at times happened at least 5 times and in static position that the internet signal would drop and then come back (so somewhat finicky there)

lag is there when opening certain apps-just sits there

happens at times when pressing ok button in say some app where you have to accept or reject

but alpha...known and/or expected

don't about bluetooth headset, netflix, audio sophisticated stuff..not into these/kept up with the times

youtube works no issues

odd thing if some app or function fails for some reason it says browser stopped...will have to note down which ones gave that error that had nothing to do with the internet browser (opera beta that I use works no issues as does the built-in browser...unless the data signal drops for some reason-then have to turn off and on the data/or even toggle airplane mode to restart the radio)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] acornkenya:
Just like your other alpha builds, this is really good; great work! Subjectively, the ROM feels quite fast.

The bugs I noticed were:

1. MTP is not working for me

2. Scrolling was smooth, but slow, and eventually got jerky over time

3. The tablet can be detected by other devices when Bluetooth is on, but it cannot receive any files

4. For some reason, CM Transfer - I did not test other apps that use the same approach to transfer files - is not working

Was this device made with Android 7.1 in mind? Some time last year, when I was trying to install a ROM using Flashfire, I noticed that this device seems to have two data partitions. After installing this ROM, the tablet reported that the total 'shared' internal memory was around 8GB, rather than the usual five-or-so gigabytes. I was very surprised
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
Didn't notice MTP wasn't working will take a look at it.

As for bluetooth it is still essentially broken in this build.

There are changes to how /data is structured but it is still one partition from what I know. It is still a mystery to me how it computes storage especially if you set your external sd card as adoptable, it could probably combine the size of both system and data in that report.

.now on a 2nd installation..TWRP backup restore runs into issues (twice now) (only on lineage not cm14.1/13.1/omni) get android.phone stopped issue.

mtp issues..yes in #4 "also problem connecting to the computer choosing mtp protocol the usb debugging and the connection option notifications vanish (even if set to always show) (think it does not do anything and remains in charge mode) through dev menu in settings it appears picture transfer may be set"

it shows up for selection but does not work (sits in charge mode)...I think the picture transfer appears to get set...will check again and try to restore the backup without data
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mac231us:
anyone here having issues restoring from twrp backup (tried 3 times now each time it fails with looping android.phone crashes-muting the app then toggling airplane mode to restart the radio does not work) basically have to set it up and use it (the rom) but cannot try anything else (or have a backup that can be used in case things go wrong)...ran into the same clock issue as on cm13 (extreme only?) ...could not get out of the rebooting loop (tried deleting data for the desk clock) and then twrp backup would not work either

thanks

edit

I am able to restore without data (so have to set up again including supersu but at least it avoids the odin flashing part)

Seems the alarm clock issue happens on all LineageOS roms and not just mine. Their advice is to just get another app from the app store while they are fixing it.

Hi, thanks for continuing to work on this device.

Sadly, I have (or rather my granny does) a SM-T280... In the last thread there was someone who wanted to try to port to the T280, is there still work going on?

Also can I help? I am not really a developer, but a tinkerer; and I am fed up enough by the Samsung nonsense to try and help (as long as I can be reasonably certain to be able to restore the tablet to a working state even if I mess up, it's not mine after all^^)

sorry if not valid here..

jedid, it seems the ftp issue is still there? as before checking or selecting the ftp option simply removes the toggle from the notification (does not show up until next reboot) and does not connect the drives to the computer

also not sure if you were looking at this issue but need to manually select the network time zone (does not automatically detect)

automatic takes it to GMT
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] acerzw:
I tried partitions but android insists the SD is corrupt and formats it as one partition again. Main problem is by the time I have loaded all my apps their is not enough storage for my music as play music only uses internal storage. However when if I format the SD as internal storage play music can't see it, probably because it's dropped out of the filesystem, it only sees the actual internal storage, which has hardly any room left. The ROM is perfect otherwise, breathes new life into the device.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] deranche:
looks like you need to change your SD-RAM, most RAM are lifetime warranty. go back to the shop where you bought with the packaging n change a new SD-RAM.

Good luck :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] acerzw:
It's not a problem with the SD card itself, just Nougat doesn't like multiple partitions, that are not formatted by it. The problem being discussed is not really about SD ram formatting, I was just testing another members suggestion for a work around, to a problem with this roms implementation of SD storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] deranche:
Now that I tried, its a minor bug. perhaps all Samsung CUSTOM XDA ROM had this problem since the Marshmallow season :)

other brands came with the External SD memory to internal memory by "default" . (eg. Sony, Motorola even in their Marshmallow days :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] acerzw:
[MENTION=2231267]deranche[/MENTION], thanks for trying it, I didn't get an error like that, it formatted ok, just disappears from the filesystem, interesting though. Hopefully jedid will be able to fix it, whilst minor, it unfortunately stops me from being able to use the device for what I need as theres just not enough internal storage.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] deranche:
frankly, im still using the original Stock ROM lollipop 5.01 until someone made a good ROM. ;) official or unofficial they should solve all drivers or hardware errors before moving on to the next level. I went back to read, Jedld didn't solve the camera problem at 6.01, so same mistake in 7.12, not surprised :)

Jedld knows how to solve the problem but too busy :) so we really hope Jedld come back n finish what he aim for, a final n finishing touch with flawless error 7.12 ROM :laugh:

at the meantime, im using Stock ROM 5.01. occasionally will test 7.12 tho if there is any updates :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] acerzw:
As I understand it the camera problem is likely due to proprietary drivers with no source available, however a third-party camera app will work, so it's not too bad. I am keeping it installed on mine and just using it as a secondary device, if the storage issue gets fixed, I will start using it as my main device. I really prefer nougat, I couldn't go back to stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
My CM-13 builds have fully working camera and video recording even for the the stock app. The camera libs are complicated and we don't have access to the complete source that samsung used to compile for this device. My tab only serves as a secondary device at the moment with my 3T as main so I don't use the camera functions very much.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] deranche:
:good: sorry to say but I need to use camera direct from the stock ROM as im streaming Live in an app Bigo :) so I cant use any ROM if its not fully packed. I'll stick to lollipop for now, no problem.

This tab A comes new, like only 1 month old from a gift :) I'm using iphone7+ as my main, note3 & Vivo y55s as my secondary in case WWIII happens :laugh: the rest are just for playing around :angel:

let me dig the stock ROM for all drivers, when I get a 64bit computer next month :P
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
the SM-T285 kernel may not be compatible with this model. Will probably need a custom build for this. This can be tough since I don't have access to this hardware.

Hi [MENTION=649003]jedld[/MENTION],

Do you think the SD storage is fixable and that you might have time to fix it, I don't know if you plan to do anymore work on this ROM?

Kind Regards

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
You can try to disable sdcardfs, maybe it will fix issues.

You need to edit /system/build.prop and set ro.sys.sdcardfs=false

Note that editing things on the /system partition will require root. So you need to enable developer settings, and set to allow root for adb shell. You can then do:

adb root
adb remount
adb shell
~# vim /system/build.prop

Then reboot and see what happens
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] acerzw:
I used ROM Toolbox's build prop editor and bingo, it worked great, with the sd formatted as internal it is now visible and usable! Play music sees it too and I can move apps to it no problem. [MENTION=649003]jedld[/MENTION] thanks so much i can now use this as my main device :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
looks like sdcardfs is buggy on the gtexslte, I'll disable it on the next build.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
Gallery for me is fine until I click the camera button. For video you can try to edit the /system/etc/media_codecs.xml file and to take out all or some of the sprd codecs. This will force the use of ffmpeg software codecs and may solve your issues in the expense of battery life.

Hi, jedld! The latest update in the article from August 21, 2017, and is available for download from August 20, 2017. When you try to update the version from June 27, 2017 to the version from August 20, 2017 - the phone has fallen into the download mode. On the version from August 20, 2017 - when I try to restart the phone in the update mode (I have the option to switch it on in the menu of the user when I click the shutdown button in the selection menu), reboots and does not enter the update mode. I forgot to make a backup and eventually lost all the data.

Hi [MENTION=649003]jedld[/MENTION],

One thing I found is if you use a Bluetooth headset with a mic the phone audio does not switch to it when you answer a call, you have to hold the tablet to your ear to talk. Tried it with a couple of different headsets, same with both. Checked the Bluetooth device settings and phone audio was definitely routed to the headsets.

Thanks again for all your work on this great ROM.

I found my way around the SD-RAM as internal memory, *fully wipe SM-T285, u may need to format data to wipe CLEAN, install ROM, goto entrance n home, settings and quickly format the SD-RAM as internal memory. do this before GAPP. Note* Gapp nowadays also buggy :p:fingers-crossed:

My tablet is SM-T280 not T285

So when I put this rom in my tablet, what would happen?

I heard that someone said this tablet and T285 are not the same kernel so it can't.

What would happen?

Or can you make the rom for T280? Why anyone don't make the rom for this model? I have used deodexed rom for mu tablet, but I couldn't satisfied.. :(

Can you help this tablet for me or T280 users?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] GixxerRaider:
I have install on Sm-t285, battery is better and wifi reception and mobile reception is very strong. No issue with GPS.

Current Issue Face:

1. Stock Camera App does not work. Need to use 3rd Party Apps.

2. When Making a phone call, No sound on speaker, Bluetooth earpiece, wired earpiece. All Phone calls audio are routing through the ear speakers.

For video and music or apps like zelle, whatapps, the sound does go through the ear piece and speaker as well. Only problem is when you are making a phone call or a phone call come in.

Any one has any solution to this?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] acerzw:
I recommend the open camera app, way better than the stock app. Regards calls routing through the speaker, I have actually got used to using it like a normal phone when answering calls, I put the back to my face so the tiny speaker is near my ear and turn the screen off so the calling number is not visible to others, a tad inconvenient if wearing BT headphones, but it's kinda cool.... In a weird way

GPS :c

GPS is the only bad thing in this rom :c

I attached 2 Images where u guys can see the difference between Stock Rom GPS performance vs. Lineageos GPS.

(Same positions, after 2 mins of GPS searching)

Impossible to use navigation apps (tested with google maps) without the problem of freezing location every few seconds.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] kadut:
Well the GPS and camera issues are what happens when original device manufacturer doesn't even bother with updating the original ROM to the latest Android. Porting these things is never straight forward. Frankly I expected more from Samsung to keep their ROMs updated to the latest Android. This is the kind of crap I expect from Lenovo or most of the China branded devices.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
There are issues with agps in the non-stock roms so far which I am having problems with. Unfortunately, GPS modules have some proprietary components which are a pain to debug.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Nando14sunny:
But is it possible to debug? :)

What about the Tab A 580? Its updated to Nougat :) Maybe its the same GPS chip? :D

But your rom is really good! It shows how powerful this little tablet COULD be. :)

What is a not working now for this Rom?

I mount this Tab on my car dashboard and both GPS and Bluetooth is extremely required and will Google Assistant available on this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jedld:
- Bluetooth works though if you enable bluetooth and wifi at the same time, connectivity issues sometimes happens on both.

- GPS kinda works, but there are agps issues that prevent it from obtaining satellite data properly. users have mixed results

- Haven't tried Google Assistant, but if it is known to work with Lineageos 14.1 in general then I don't see any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] gian20:
-Barcode scanner app does not work (Barcode scanner from F-droid, QRscanner from F-droid)

-GPS cannot get a fix even in outdoors

minor issue: the device crashes sometimes once a month in which the developer settings would be gone and other settings. Happens in older builds even from the marshmallow 6.0.1 project. maybe triggered when there is low internal storage space?

Anyone having any issues after having the memory card as internal storage?

Issues like:

Suddenly certain app missing e.g FB

Suddenly no data connection (toggling airplane mode, on off data not helping).

What works was having to clear cache and dalvik cache (maybe cache only sufficient, haven't tried).

My first assumption is it's have something to do with memory card quality.

Anyone having similar experience?
