When in a hole..........

:laugh: Relax! I was joking!

I, too, looked at the M5 which seems to have some fairly good reviews. I do actually like Huawei and made up my mind to seriously consider them for my next Smartphone.

I currently have the S9, decided to skip the S10 because it's loadsamuney! And besides, the S9 is still very good to consider trading in just yet.

So yes, after many years now as a Sammy Fan, thinking about jumping ship because they've really become too overpriced for what they are.

And is all seriousness, some of these cheaper Chinese (and other foreign) imports are now almost as good in spec as high-end phones for half the price.

That said, I thought Trump was considering placing a ban on Huawei, worried they're a spy for the Chinese government? :laugh:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Yeah same here, no way in the world I would be upgrading any time soon from the S9, lol unless I had broken it already (and I am unusually good with phones), and even then I would be trying to fix it myself per usual. Yeah Huawei seems like a company that is going to be right up their with the Samsung's and Apples someday, and already have hardware just as good, mostly. Did you hear the TSMC news about Huawei yet? Huawei has won the contract to be the VERY FIRST 7nm EUV products for production of Kirin directly from TSMC. This means they will be first with the worlds most efficient mobile SoC's. How much of a lead is the question and seriously that lead probably wont really make much of a difference in the grand scheme of things. It just surprised me that Huawei will have the very first EUV based products, from TSMC anyway. I might like to see what Tab they build out of those chips.

Trump is now suspicious of everything and everyone. I thought tests proved that there is no spying hardware on the devices? Oh wait, Trump doesn't care about proof, err forgot about that sorry... ;) However, we here in the US need to be vigilant about stuff like that, last thing we need is our secrets being stolen. But show me the proof first before banning their stuff, lol.

Tab s Support Stopped .

Is tabs s support stopped ? No new updates, does anybody know ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
As LineageOS reported back in February 2019, all official 14.1 devices have been retired. Lineage is no longer developing 14.1. Lineage has officially announced that 16.1 has gone into official status and thus 14.1 is now permanently retired. When 17.1 is released then 15.1 will be retired, so on and so forth.

So, yes LineageOS 14.1 on the Tab S is retired and no longer being officially developed. Would have been nice to get 15.1 but I'm sure they thought the Tab S was simply too old. Oh well....
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ToNKeY4ever:
Stopping support is one thing. But deleting the last Build from the servers is another.

How should anybody reactivate an old Tab S now if you can't download any build anywhere? And even an old LOS 14.1 build is better and much more up to date as the last official samsung build.

Could anybody that still has a build of LOS 14.1 for out T700 please upload this and share a link? I really need this. Samsung Stock ROM is truly pain in the ass -.-
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
You don't need the official, the exynos5420 team is still building them for the TAB S. Below are the links to the T700 roms. I have ran both official and these and there is no difference.

https://download.exynos5420.com/LineageOS-14.1/klimtwifi/
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Legsmaniac:
Sure thing. Latest build I have and am using is 20190209 Nightly Build -

Google Drive - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1HQBhMEObEq8lI6zEZRE0ZH2dH9qXhAxf

DropBox - https://www.dropbox.com/s/nhvqoems53g9d49/lineage-14.1-20190209-nightly-klimtwifi-signed.zip?dl=0

Like you, I can't believe all links for the Official 14.1 have disappeared.

Isn't there a possibility for bugs to introduced into these unofficial builds though?

Is there any information relating to these builds? What additions/fixes have gone into them? There can't really be "no difference" else why build them? ;)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
Unofficial builds are still built by us, we updated the Official builds and we are still going to update the Unofficial ones, so no worry for bugs and stuff. 14.1 is pretty much stable.

They were being built as our 'testing' before we added the changes to Official but they are now basically equal, with Unofficial having a few more changes to make the experience better which Lineage would not let us add to Official builds as they do not allow these 'hacks' :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] j1505243:
Could you explain those changes a little? I always wondered about the details of official LOS requirements and philosophy.

As Lineage Officially stated back in February, all devices that were on any ROM older than 15.1 has been retired and removed from Official status. Our Tablet is just one of MANY devices that got retired and removed from the download pages. Lineage wants to concentrate on the newer 15.1/16+ up ROM's, and newer devices only, not half decade old ones. So, save the last Official build into your backup folders and never lose it, OR use Unofficial exynos5420 ROM's such as the LineageOS 14.1 at the link below. It is the same exact maintained ROM, just no longer has Official Lineage status.

https://download.exynos5420.com/LineageOS-14.1/klimtwifi/
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DarkExistence:
well it is still maintained, by us, just not officially. See the link SkOrPn posted above where the builds we produce are placed.

ATM chagallwifi, chagalllte and two other 5420 devices (v1awifi and v1a3g) are the main ones being developed on. Since chagallwifi and klimtwifi are similar, it won't be too hard to implement the changes once we stabilise the other devices first.

while Lineage 14.1 may be closer to whatever issues you have with ASOP, it's endlessly better than the stock/OEM Samsung pooper.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] gruuvin:
Endlessly?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] gads1:
howdy -- your original post was absolutely on point. I don't have a huge amount of experience with different devices but the OEM apps, especially for camera, are leagues above the generic ASOP stuffola.

"endlessly" was terrible verbage. However, I have personally found that simply replacing LoS 14.1 for OEM Samsung build has made the tablet "usable" for my simple needs. While it's much easier to go purchase latest/greatest TabA @ Costco for $150+, I like the 8.4 form factor and "usability" of tablet wit LOS.

On side topic, is the original TabS camera app available to install (or side load) for this lineage build? OR is such an app incompatible due to different android build and/or absence of other samsung libraries?

Take care/
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] gruuvin:
I've tried LOS on my galaxy phones, and always go back to stock based ROMs. But,...

I wrote that first post before I realized I was in a Tab S forum instead of Galaxy S7 forum. Well, I have LOS 14 on my tab, and like it it better than stock-based ROM! (never used the cam on the tab). So, I guess I had to eat my words! Now, I wonder what is the most recent stable LOS for the SM-T700. Android 9 or 10 would be nice!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] wellersl:
The link in the OP that says, "Klimtwifi Downloads" takes me to a page that says,

"Whoops - this page doesn't exist

This device has no available builds. Please select another device."

Which, of course isn't particularly practical. Does that mean the build never really existed? Or has it been lost to history?

Wondering the same thing myself, Android 7 getting older by the day and still no 8 or newer roms for this device :(

It's a shame but when my Nexus 7 from the same era has Android 10 already... and it's faster (for me at least), it's become my daily device

Hi guys! There is a Lineageos Rom for SM-T700 compiled in 64bit?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] drmarble:
The 5420 processor is only 32bit so there is unlikely to be a 64bit rom.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] lollo78:
Thanks.

Actually which is the best/updated/supported LineageOS rom for SM-T700?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] HijoProdigo:
What I've read so far is that the lineage su addon is slightly more stable than SU, but to each his own. I figure I don't need all the bells and whistles of SU, and I prefer what lineage has designed anyway. :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] kevria:
Ive also been told that SuperSU is done by a chinese company and is closed source. Not saying there is anything going on but no way to know. I wonder how I switch SU's. Just reinstall the rom and install lineage's version instead?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] HijoProdigo:
That is the route I would go.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
SuperSU has a full unroot in the settings.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] kevria:
This worked.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Hey guys I uninstalled YouTube and reinstalled and now YouTube works properly. I only played a single video so far so not sure if it's a permanent fix or not for the weird lag and freezes of before. Time will tell but I thought I would share the information asap.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ColMustard:
How did you uninstall youtube, isn't it a system app. I even tried using Root Uninstall and that didn't work.

Edit: Never mind, just needed to reboot.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Hmm, I fired up my Titanium Backup, found the Youtube app and just hit the uninstall button, lol. Seconds later it was gone and then I reinstalled from the Play Store. I haven't had much testing but what I did test it seems to run fine now. Is it just a placebo maybe or did I really fix it by doing that??
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Chinaboy5216:
Has anyone flashed the official Lineage version over this version already? If so, what was the outcome?

I tried by wipe system and the flash the official nightly but got errors and stuck at samsung screen, so back to the [MENTION=221356]Deadman[/MENTION] version now.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] kevria:
You need to flash the experimental before flashing the official ROM.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Chinaboy5216:
Thanks for the feedback, I'll try at once

Worked!! Thanks for your help!!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] rookie12:
Experimental is when want to dirty flash if you are doing a clean flash then that is not needed

Just wipe flash nightly gapps and su add-on if you want done that worked for me perfectly
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] swazau:
Just dirty flashed experimental build and then nightly, boots fine but YouTube stuttering is worse than deadmans latest build. All other bugs seem to be fixed though.

EDIT:Also no sign of fingerprint setup so I guess it's still disabled
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] HijoProdigo:
I flashed the experimental build, then the official, plus the su addon. It seems that app permissions haven't changed, but file managers can't see the external card for some odd reason. Rather, MiXplorer sees it, and can browse files, but can't write to the card. The built in File Explorer can't even see the card. If I try to grant the app permission to the card using the typical "select the root of the external card", the card is seen in the sidebar, but it says no content is available.

Has anyone else seen this?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] swazau:
My Samsung sdcard is formatted as internal and it is working fine, you try with another sdcard to see if is an broken sdcard. Does any one else have this issue?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] HijoProdigo:
I just tried another sdcard that I know works, same result. I just tried to take a screenshot of the screen I mentioned, but it seems that because I had set the camera to save image to the sdcard, it fails.

The interesting part is that when I connect the tablet to the computer and enable MTP, everything works fine. I can create a folder, and I see it in MiXplorer. I can see in settings available space on the card, but from there I can't navigate or see anything on the card. It looks like some kind of system permission to the external card was corrupted.

If no one else has this issue, I'll just reformat and start over.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] swazau:
That is a very weird bug, you could always backup your current setup in TWRP and clean flash the nightly and Gapps SuperSU or addonsu
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] HijoProdigo:
Good idea, I'll try that. And agreed, very strange bug!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] swazau:
And if you get the same result in clean flash then guess it's a lineage problem.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] HijoProdigo:
Hmm.. I just cleaned flashed the official weekly, same problem. If someone else could confirm, maybe this could be corrected.

Edit: I went back to the unofficial build, and everything works perfectly. Going to stay on this for now.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Phantasm4489:
I tested this ROM briefly and had that same issue. There did appear to be selinux denied errors in the log that seemed to be related but unfortunately I had to river back to my previous setup as the sdcard contains all my media and I needed access to it.

If I have some time I will try again and get logs.

Upgrade from CM-12.1 Official?

Two questions:

1) Can I upgrade from the last available Cyanogenmod 12.1 Official ROM I have currently installed to this ROM or to the official Download.LineageOS.org/klimtwifi ROM (not sure why there's still no thread for that)?

2) Will the default Cyanogenmod recovery work? Can use Cyanogen recovery to perform the upgrade following the official method of flashing the Experimental ROM before updating to the regular Nightly ROM? Or do I need to flash TWRP recovery first?

Thanks!!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] swazau:
You should only need to use the experimental if you are on a unofficial lineage 14.1 ROM,and want to change to an official build before flashing the nightly. You can't use it to upgrade from cm 12.1, I don't think dirty flashing from 12.1 is going to end well for you, if it even boots. To get to the 14.1 nightly you will need to wipe cache, Dalvic,data and system , then flash the nightly, Gapps, and addonsu or SuperSU (only if you want root of course)

I think you could flash it will cm recovery, but I don't see why you would want to use it instead of TWRP.

I hope I understand your question correctly.

Dan
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DonutButton:
According to the instructions at "LineageOS.org/Update-and-Build-Prep/" (URL edited since it seems I still can't post links): "Alongside the ‘weekly’ release for your supported device, we’ll provide an EXPERIMENTAL data migration build.

This build will allow you to ‘upgrade’ from CM to the signed LineageOS weekly."

It also says that installing "on top of cm-13.0 or cm-14.1 build" is officially supported, but I want to know if it's also possible to migrate from cm-12.1, which is the last version supported by Cyanogenmod for klimtwifi. So how do I upgrade from cm-12.1?

I noticed something weird with the recovery mode of Samsung devices. I think it's the way the recovery is linked against the boot image. In theory, a broken recovery could also make the entire system broken. This can be fixed of course, but I have to dig up the old Windows-only flash tools for this device, install a VM, etc.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] swazau:
Why don't you just use Odin to flash a new recovery?

---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

I don't think you can upgrade from cm12.1 because lineage will not support cm12.1 in general, they only build lineage 13.0 and lineage. 14.1
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] DonutButton:
Odin doesn't work directly in Linux. I need to download a Windows developer preview image (it's legal but severely limited in what it can do), and then install a VM (virtual machine), which requires some tweaking on both the host and guest side. This is before we get into the the inherent dangers of using a low-level but largely undocumented tool like Odin. Does anybody even know where that tool come from? It's clearly not open source. If it's really and legally freeware, it doesn't even have an official download site.

Sorry, I'm ranting already;)

I suspected that much. I'll try upgrading anyway. I do have a backup Android device.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] swazau:
Can you use wine to run Odin, also I'm sure people can confirm that Odin is not spyware or a virus, I have used it for years with no problems.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Odin is what Samsung uses internally to flash all their ARM devices. It's built and maintained by Samsung for Samsung devices. And it's not meant for the public, it's engineering software so every build that hits the Internet is considered a leak.

Its the only true safe way to flash Samsung devices. Even their for public software isn't safer.
