Because of this

Even more, the distribution of devices after ASB merge is not "all devices in 2-3 days" like it should be but "2-3 devices a day during the whole month". So last devices in a row get ASB in 30+ days after ASB was merged.

I am trying to fix that dumb move but not so lucky yet.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Ah, interesting news, thank you for that info. Do we perhaps know if 15.1 might be officially coming to the TAB S as of yet? If not, it might be time to move on to TAB S2 or S3 I think. I initially decided not to consider TAB S3 (because I thought Lineage was never going to come to it), but I noticed that it finally got unofficial Lineage builds, so maybe someday it might get official Lineage PIE. If so, I might bypass TAB S2 and go with TAB S3. If the TAB S officially gets LOS Oreo I might stick to this T700 for 2019. We will see...

Thanks again for that information.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] gellmar:
We decided to skip Oreo entirely and concentrate on P instead. Too bad Tab S has 32 bit CPU which support will be dropped by Google Play next August. Actually, a lot of professional applications are already distributed as 64-bit only (I recall SolidWorks eDrawings and Splashtop Enterprise). And Tab S4 isnt something I call an alternative due to excessive price tag and all-glass design.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Yeah TAB S4 is NOT an option because of cost. I will stick to buying several year old Galaxy TAB's as they tend to drop in price eventually. I have patience tho. TAB S3 was too expensive just 6 months ago but now it can be had for less than $300 (I even seen one for $220 that was in excellent condition recently), and the S2 is now under $200 if you know how to find it. I was dead set on the TAB S2 as my next tab as it has official LineageOS (the ONLY OS I want to use) but considering that the S3 has a Snapdragon 820 which I consider to be a decent jump over the 652, I just might have to consider the S3 instead and then hope that it gets official LOS someday. Sounds like the S has its days numbered.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] j1505243:
You are wrong. 64-bit support will be mandatory for apps, not for devices. Especially considering the fact that many Android Go units still get released with 32-bit only.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] EyeBalos:
Hi, I'm upgrading my SM-T700 from CM13 (Marshmallow) to LOS 14.1. I've already upgraded TWRP to latest 3.2.1.0 (klimtwifi). After flashing LOS 14.1, the reboot is stuck in the LOS boot animation. What is the solution to overcome this? Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
I would try the entire procedure again. If you were truly on Marshmallow and thus have the Marshmallow bootloader then there is no reason it should be stuck unless you flashed or wiped something incorrectly. Try it again please.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] EyeBalos:
Thanks for your reply.

How do I confirm the version of my bootloader? I assumed it's still on Marshmallow as I unlocked it myself using the instruction to install CM13 about 3 years ago.

As for wiping, I did a system, data (not storage), dalvik and cache wipe prior to flashing LOS 14.1 with TWRP 3.2.1.0.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Hmm, go to this link and check your bootloader version with CPU-Z from play store. https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/t705-marshmallow-bootloaders-t3477462

If it is not the same, just upgrade it. I think you wiped correctly as well. But sometimes the first animation can take an extra extra long time and make people think something went wrong.

EDIT: I just checked mine and it says T700ZCU1CPK5, so that would be OK too I guess. lol
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] EyeBalos:
OK, I was able to flash LOS 14.1. My bootloader is the same as yours so I didn't need to update it. All I did differently was just flash LOS only. Previously was flashing both LOS and Gapps at the same time.

Have you tried the RR 5.8.5 ROM based on LOS 14.1? If yes, how do these 2 ROMs compare i.e. pros and cons of each ROM?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
RR just adds more features, but both are very good. I found RR to be slightly less stable but everyone's experience can be different. You should try both as it's been awhile since I last used RR.

Good news! I have info that minimal brightness will be set to 10 in manual mode in next lineage os update. Thanks to commit author.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] j1505243:
10 is still rather big :( I guess the commiter wanted to achieve a compromise, but there's nothing legitimate to keep this value higher than minimal auto.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] NerddoSwaggo:
Had Lineage 15 on my Lenovo P2, and ever since I'd been meaning to install it on my tab s as well. After accidentally flashing the changall (10.1 Tab S) TWRP, I realised my mistake, flashed the correct TWRP, ROM, and GAPPS, and my god it's as beautiful as I remember. Great work, dead smooth, haven't found a single issue!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] :
hey there, been a while since i have been back on xda fourms and flashed any rom so forgive me but i picked up a tab s 8.0 for next to nothing and want to put the newest os i can on it. it is the sm-t705w cellular model. will this rom still work? even if it breaks cellular i dont mind but if i can keep it working thats great as well. thanks

Anyone flashed last build?

I've experienced huge battery drain, like if the tablet wasn't deep sleeping...
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] duskinv:
currently trying to work on a t700, had aopk on it from ages, thought i found a good tar.md5 file off of sammobile, read elsewhere that said using cellular south was the one to pick. downloaded took about 2 hrs. opened in odin 3.09 everything seemed to work, but now stuck in samsung bootloop. am i suppose to use a different version? i am trying to go back to factory than get into using Lineage ( my tablet, but giving it to step son as a present) any help or point in right direction would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] AdamWill:
Are you sure it's the build and not just the battery? Tried downgrading? These tablets are getting pretty old, now - we're probably at the point where the stock batteries will be dying.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] duskinv:
is it possible, to ODIN LOS 14? or do i have to actually get adroid 6.0 out of bootloop than do the whole process?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Edge-1337:

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] kum4423:
There is already bug that rotation of a lock screen.

Until the bug has been fixed, you can use this workaround:

Add /system/build.prop to "lockscreen.rot_override=true"

I was able to resolve this bug. But, you need to be ROOT(Magisk).

Magisk and ES File Explorer are very compatible.

Please give it a try.;)

I've been using the builds over @ https://download.exynos5420.com/LineageOS-14.1/klimtwifi/ and noticed the fingerprint reader stopped working in the last few weeks, does the OFFICIAL builds have the sensor working ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] kevria:
It looks like support for this device is coming to an end. No more builds according to https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/auksye/141_is_now_deprecated_151_is_now_weekly_its/ which is in place for builds of android 16.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Nyuha:
I guess I messed up guys! I flashed this rom then flashed the wrong gapps so I just decided to go back to my backup. Well now my tablet is stuck on a bootloop for Resurrection Remix Rom. I can't boot into recovery it skips right past it. I can boot to download mode but I can't seem to flash anything. I flashed the latest firmware and tried flashing TWRP but it just gets stuck on sboot.img or setupconnection. I guess this is the end for this tablet?.. I've never had it get this messed up since i owned it... i've always counted on odin to be my last resort if things went wrong but now odin won't even do anything for me.

*EDIT* silly me! I used a different cable and It flashed TWRP. I'm golden now. sorry guys ;)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Looks like its time for me to pick up the TAB S3 soon then. Maybe some day soon it will get official LOS builds.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Legsmaniac:
Expensive.

Not for me though. I'm happy with LOS 14 for now and for a while yet. Very stable and increases my RAM from 16 to nearly 80GB (plenty nuff for me). I see no reason to upgrade upon my TabS 8.4 while it's running sweet as a nut.

Meanwhile, I'm keeping an eye on LOS 15 Oreo in the hope they manage to make that as good as this one. ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
If LOS 15 doesn't come to the TAB S officially then it will be impossible to make it run as good as Official 14. I want official LOS builds if I can help it. Going back to being a beta tester with certain things not working I am just too old for. TAB S2 and S3 are cheap enough now, so I can't and won't complain about paying less then $299 as my ONLY Android device. There are always decent deals to be found on CL or the bay. I got my TAB S for only $200 just months after it was released because it was not the device that some young teenager girl wanted, so it came out of the box like brand new when they were still over $400. I'm perfectly OK with waiting it out and finding another A+ deal like that, which there are many if you know how to find them.

Expensive is the new TAB S4, THAT is what is called expensive... lol
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Legsmaniac:
Hmmmm. The Tab S3 is circa £400 here, about 526 dollars. Hence expensive. You're lucky.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Oh I apologize for my stupidity, I wasn't aware of that. Lineage said this last weekend that they are retiring all LOS 14.1 devices so LOS 15 or 16 will NOT be coming to the TAB S. TAB S2 and above is all we can use now if official LOS is a requirement.

Teclast T20 (Helio X27 just under the Snapdragon 820 performance levels) is now the only other device I might be OK with. But if I ever try a chinese Tab I might wait for their Helio X30 variants, if they come later this year. Maybe a Teclast T30 (With Helio X30) would be sweet, that would probably just barely beat the TAB S3, probably. Either way my limit is $300, and I would prefer to spend less than $250 us. By the way, in what world does LOS 14.1 run good on the TAB S? Never has run good on mine, tons and tons of stuttering and micro hesitations. Nothing can fix the crap Exynos5420.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] julienv:
I regret the "up"grade... from 7.1.1...

Hi, I'm not a ROM flashing guru yet, but I'm not so green either. But for the first time I had to downgrade from very-minor revision 7.1.2 to 7.1.1 and it seems I have to forget about it... :(.

I've been running under LiquidDeath 7.1.1 for months, and I loved it. I wanted to upgrade this ROM for the sole reason that I got crashes with the newly installed SideSync remote control app which I'm interested in for local use instead of TeamViewer Host. Now, not only did'nt I get any improvements with SideSync crashes after the update (I knew it was very possible that it wouldn't be better, but..), TeamViewer Host now crashes too... No biggie I thought, I just have to restore from one of my many TWRP backups and I'm back in business... But nope! I can't revert back to my 7.1.1 image... Stuck at the samsung boot screen.

It probably was a mistake to upgrade my version of TWRP to 3.2.3-0 in this process, which I think has more backup items available (modem, for instance) compared to the earlier version I had (3.1.2-0) and I obviously can't overwrite stuff that I could not backup before. Is that something I should assume in general from Samsung devices, that once you "up"grade you have to kiss your older backups goodbye??

I'm sure I probably went too broad at once on the upgrades, but I wrongly felt safe knowing I had a FEW backups! Now my "upgraded" device is less functional than it was before for me... I guess I should be grateful I didn't brick it for good... But that still sucks and I just had to say, solution or not.

Thanks for letting me moan a little bit here and I must say that I'm sure that this ROM is a very good one... Just bat luck (and some lack of experience of course) it would seem.

Still a marvelous piece of software though!

J.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Legsmaniac:
All I can say is, it's runs great on mine and I'm very happy with it. So far.

Shame about LOS 14.1 being the last but then, it's the first and last for me. That said, until I installed LOS only recently, I'd been stuck on the crap Samsung left the Tab S with, for years, so I'd be quite happy to be stuck on LOS 14.1 for a while yet. It's better than what I had!

I, too, have researched a new tablet recently (until I discovered LOS) and have also been looking at Chinese imports instead of Samsung for a change. Still couldn't make up my mind nor was swayed by anything in particular hence sticking with the Tab S and LOS, saving loadsamuney.

What's not to like? :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Djirin:
My Tab S 8.4 is still going strong as well. With as little as I use it for I won't be jumping ship from it just yet. It's sad that it won't be getting updated but that is not an issue for me.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Legsmaniac:
I just thought I should add that I *used* to have a slow-ish (but not stuttering) LOS 14.1 when I first set it up with my Samsung Evo UHS Speed Class 1 Micro SD card formatted to be used as internal memory until I changed this card to Samsung Evo Plus Speed Class 3 and now it's as smooth as a baby's bum. And just as fast! :laugh:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
VERY good point. Maybe I should reduce the amount of apps that I have and try the same or faster card then. I thought I had the worlds fastest already but maybe not. But at any rate this is a perfectly reasonable reason why I'm not satisfied with the performance. Thanks for reminding me about that.

EDIT: My card is the Samsung EVO+ U1 32GB card, it has been in the tab ever since I got the tab, lol. Maybe it's time for SanDisk Extreme Pro U3 or something with 90+ writes...
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Legsmaniac:
I would think so too. :) Mine is 100+ writes and ---- wow!

Not sure reducing amount of apps is much to worry about, I use a good number of apps myself.

Saying that, I only use my T700 for a select 2 or 3 things mostly, for the larger screen and great for reading in bed.

Otherwise I use my Galaxy S9 which is of course WAY faster.

By the way, I tried copying my SD Card to the new one using Mini Partition Wizard which didn't work.

So I then tried MiniTool ShadowMaker (Trial) which worked just fine.

Just in case it's a route you may wish to go down.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] mrcet007:
How is the battery life and stability of this lineageos rom compared to stock Samsung rom? Is it same as the stock rom? What all doesn't work in this rom?

Is it worth install this over the stock?

Any guidance will be of great help
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Legsmaniac:
It's not the same as stock, no. It's Lineage OS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LineageOS

I personally haven't found anything that doesn't work on my T700 yet.

Stability is great. Rock solid.

Battery life, um..... Hard to say at the moment. I would say not the best but then, I'm still testing and playing. Constant testing, playing and fiddling = battery drain. So.......

But then again, my T700 is about 5 years old now and well used with original battery. I keep my Tab S well charged anyhow.

Worth the install? Hell, yes. In my opinion anyway and for reasons of my own personal use at least.

With the original stock, I was limited to in-built 16G RAM which isn't great these days. I was constantly having to delete apps to install new ones. And constantly had to keep a check on downloads, including my books and magazines. I did try rooting stock and installing apps to use the SD Card as extended memory but it wasn't the best. With Lineage, you get asked if you want to use the SD Card as normal removable memory or as internal memory. I opted for the latter and with a 64GB fast SD Card, the Tab S reports I have some 74GB total memory. And it works well.

Put it this way - it's enabled me to use my Tab S to it's fullest potential (and some!) once again and saved me having to spend £300+ for a new Tablet.

Hope this helps. :)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] C0derbear:
My T700 is used primarily as a Kindle reader, with some email (using Outlook) and web (mix of Chrome and Edge) and music playback (Cloudplayer from uSD stored files).

I usually charge it after 3 or 4 days, with on the order of 4 hours a day reading time. I usually run the Kindle app with light text on a black background, FWIW.

Original battery, old device. Some apps I just won't bother with on it because they're pigs (looking at you Facebook and similar) but a fair amount of stuff works rather well, considering the hardware age.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Avid-reader:
I pretty much use for the same reason as you mentioned for reading, though I use wattpad and fanfiction app. I can usually get 5 hours SOT, wished it was better maybe its time to replace battery.

I alternate reading it on S9+ where SOT is between 10-12 hours via reading on a black background.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] iruiz2:
Are you saying that your T700 gives you more than 10 hours of screen time across 3-4 days?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] richardfeb2@gmail.com:
No support .

Has support finished for this Tab s, No new Updates ?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Avid-reader:
To clarify around 5 hours on T700 Tab S

10-12 hours on the Samsung S9+ phone (Verizon)

About 12-15 hours on Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 SOT via reading - wifi and sync are turned off.

Also reCaptcha stinks...took forever to post.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] C0derbear:
I've never "hard" measured it, but if I'm just using Kindle I get a lot of SOT (black background white letters in Kindle), low brightness since it's predominantly evening reading.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Thought I would let you know that I ordered the SanDisk Extreme Pro U3 A2 today, so that should be perfect for internal storage purposes. But I thought I would ask you about MiniTool ShawdowMaker. Did you mean to say that you managed to copy your old internal storage formatted microsd card to the new one and the device didn't complain about swapping them? That would be very cool if true.

Thanks again for the suggestion on getting a better microsd card. I still plan on upgrading to the Tab S3 but not until later this summer or when ever Android 9.0 comes to the device officially. I just cant have a device that isn't getting LineageOS updates. Not sure what I will do with my T700 though.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] Legsmaniac:
Calling me a liar?!?! :laugh:

It's true alright. I had a 64GB Micro SD Card already in the T700 formatted as internal storage, giving me some 79GB total storage. I already had loads of apps installed too so I really didn't want to have to re-install the apps that were on the card, whatever they were. I already had MiniTool Partition Wizard installed on my PC so I thought I'd try that. It's always cloned my HDD's, SSD,s and HDD to SSD faithfully in the past so I assumed it would faithfully clone these SD Cards too. However, when I inserted the new SD into the T700 after cloning it with Partition Wizard, the T700 complained the SD Card needed formatting. Noooooooo!!!!!

I also noticed loads of apps had disappeared. Undeterred, however, I did a Google search for help on the matter and it seemed that this MiniTool ShadowMaker was the answer I'd been looking for. So I started again, using ShadowMaker to clone the original to the newly bought superfast one, popped it into the T700 once again and...... Success!! Nothing popped up on the T700. All my apps were back and as they should be and Storage reported around 79GBs once again.

So yes, It's true alright. this ShadowMaker worked for me.

YW. Hope it works for you and speeds up your problematic use of your T700 previously. Do let us know how you get on.

Likewise, I'd still like to get a better, newer Tablet but which, I'm not sure yet. Problem is, they're no longer making new Tablets as fast as they used to, certainly not as quick as new phones are appearing. Apparently this is largely due to smaller, slimmer laptops (net/notebooks) some which also convert to Tablets too and these have turned out to be more popular than Android Tablets.

LineageOS no longer updating really doesn't bother me. It works, that's the main thing. There's nothing that doesn't work so nothing really to improve upon. For now. As it gets older though and apps are redesigned for newer OS's then sure, I'll probably start seeing the T700 getting bogged down once again but that'll not be for another couple years yet hopefully.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] SkOrPn:
Haha, sorry I wasn't calling you a liar, I was asking if my assumption was true or not. Your wording didn't make it clear, to me at least, that you had successfully cloned the microsd card, so I had to "Assume" that was what you meant. So I was asking if that was true, as in my assumption of what you meant was true. Calling you a liar never even entered my mind as I don't naturally work that way.

I was also looking at the Huawei Mediapad M5 10.8" tab as it cost around the same or less and comes with the 25% faster Kirin 960 and a better larger screen. I just think it has less support. All in all this is way to hard of a decision for me. :good:
