[MENTION=7398554]vladimiroltean[/MENTION] the new update messed up the camera focus. before it was better than now and after u fixed the focus i have never heard a sound of the camera lense but now i can hear it moving and the focus is bad beside when i recent the app i start hear continuous movement of the lense and a sound u can hear normally due to the noise of being moved fastly (the offiical lineage camera app iam using) please double check it and iam very thankful to u :) (wifi i wont tell until 2 or 3 days of usage and i hope it will going well if not i will catch the logs again and post it here and i hope i wont need it)

---------- Post added at 02:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 AM ----------

after i tested camera from viber and telegram

viber has no focus at all and everything is messy and i cant hear the lense sound (when u fixed it and worked well there was no sound at all from all telegram viber or official camera app)

telegram the picture i do not how to describe it it is like big and small and not all things in the environment are appearing on tab screen(worse than messenger).

tremendous lag after completely clean install (even wiped internal sd). i kinda think its the Facebook app cause i get an error message too from crashing fb app
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] waleed.star99:
no lag and i do not have fb app installed suck ram so i use chrome browser to us fb

Waleed, your Wi-Fi MAC is still the same as it was before (it wasn't corrected with this 0514 build, it appears).

I have no idea why that is happening. I will try to perform tests on an actual F device and see what's going on.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] waleed.star99:
how about the camera ? and the calling volume still is not finer like others

notification has finer sound has something strange need video recording which iam lazy to do :)
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
Damn, I missed that. I didn't think anybody is using this tablet for calls. Noted, will fix next time.

Camera: the focus issues happen because of a bug in a library from the stock Lenovo Nougat release. To get rid of the bug we've been using the old (Marshmallow) version of that library.

I must be stupid, because I just checked and I included the wrong version of the camera library in the latest build...
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] waleed.star99:
one of the reasons i do not want the stock that the camera is bad on stock nougat so i stick to lineage and it is ok thats happen at first when i downloaded this rom i downloaded ur first release and i was thinking it is the latest version :)

can we chat instantly on hangout please ? there is better to get the notification :)
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] toanau:
Ever since we up graded to the new firmware I have slower then the normal wifi transfer speed between devices using the same network. I use to average around 8mb now I lucky to have 1mb. Any build before December 2017 I'll would get around 8mb
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
This happens to me too. I also can't connect when i'm a few meters away from the router. I'll fire up adb shell to see what the logs are saying.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
[MENTION=7398554]vladimiroltean[/MENTION]

Could this firmware be the reason for our Wi-Fi issues? I monitored logcat while trying to connect to my Wi-Fi and noticed Android blacklisting my SSID due to bad reception. In your Github-Repo, there seem to be older firmware files "YT-X703F_S000744_170824_ROW_firmware". Is it save to flash them or will I burn in hell afterwards?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
It could. But the firmware partitions (flashable from TWRP) are only one side of the story. There are many blobs in userspace that must match the ABI of the new firmware. I don't see any benefit if you simply flash old firmware while keeping the new userspace, since you risk creating incompatibility that is very hard to debug afterwards.

On a side-note, I remember it has been reported that a post-Nougat-merge build was free of Wi-Fi issues, so it is likely not the firmware's fault but a setting from the ROM itself that we screwed up.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
Just for curiosity I restored stock Marshmallow via TWRP (YT-X703F_160817, System, Data and Boot) and it has Wi-Fi issues too. Maybe it's not just the ROM.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] waleed.star99:
On stock nougat it never drop the wifi install and see for urself there's one stock debloated me and my friend made it as zip file flashable via twrp or u can try with official system.img nougat
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
I have installed this ROM a few times, back and forth also stock Marshmallow and Nougat and have never had wifi issues that you describe. With latest Lineage version in OP my Wifi speeds are more than ok...69Mbps up and 5ms ping...and thats on 2.4GH band, I can only use my 5GH when I get closer to the router in the other room on the other side of the house. Maybe you have a hardware issue or a router issue.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
Did you use ROMs from this link? If so, can I flash 7z via TWRP?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
Those 7z files have all got an included upgrade tool called "Multiflash" in the "Tools" directory. If you extract the file you will find it in there.

Then copy the "SW" files in to the Multiflash "images" directory. Now boot into fastboot mode (bootloader) and connect the tablet....then run "Multiflash.exe", it will start immediately and do a clean stock flash of the ROM you extracted...you don't have to wipe anything. This tool works very well, I have used it many times to go back to stock.

One problem exists after this which is the tablet orientation so you must boot with TWRP, don't flash it, and then flash the 'ssc sensor cashed' zip file, then the orientation will be correct.

The Lineage source which this ROM is based on seems to be for a phone and not a tablet...I don't know why Lineage cannot sort that out to auto detect the orientation....the CM project never had that problem on any tablet I flashed.

Let me know if I need to explain further, it is quite easy. Extract the 7z in a new directory so you don't get confused with the files..
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
Will this erase internal storage?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
Yes it will. Multiflash is a tool which completely reloads your tablet with stock... like a factory flash process. It was developed and used with Motorola if I am not mistaken and is still used today...like Oden for Samsung. So you must backup whatever you want. It does not touch the SD card if you have one installed.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
One small thing I'd like to point out:

Whatever you do, DON'T run "fastboot erase userdata" (either you, or this multiflash tool you're talking about.

If you do that, it's surefire for the bootloader to trigger the deletion of your DRM keys.

Here are more details to the best of my knowledge: https://github.com/Quallenauge/Yoga-Tab-3-Plus-Issue-Tracker/issues/18
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
Multiflash does erase the userdata and the DRM keys are not affected. I have no idea where these 'keys' are but I have used Multiflash tool many times and always check DRMkeys with 'DRM Info' and the Security level is still L1. I don't know how Multiflash cleans the userdata but maybe it's not the same as fastboot erase command.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] waleed.star99:
There are syste.img recoveey.img boot.img and so on so when j delete i say fastboot erase recover

And so on
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
I have a completely stock Huawei Mate 8 with nougat and it fails the DRM Keys test...the security level is L3 and I cannot find anything which this phone cannot do....so I am not 100% sure what DRM keys are supposed to allow and or prevent but they sure are not affected by what I have been doing. I have used Magisk, SuperSU, Fastboot ADB, installed TWRP, Xposed and flashed back and forth from stock to this Lineage Rom etc many times and so far nothing has changed the security level on this tablet... touch wood... lol
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
Not all devices are provisioned with them. Some applications that use the Google Widevine framework encrypt downloaded data so that you can't pirate it. One example is Netflix that will not be able to playback in 1080p if you don't have DRM keys provisioned.

I'm not saying my knowledge is definitive, just "beware", according to what I've seen. I need to run more tests some time.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
One last thing. At some point you probably went from stock to Lineage? Have you tried to flash lineage on top of a Marshmallow rom without flashing the firmware zip?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
I flashed the firmware Zip the first time I installed Lineage from Marshmallow. I have never flashed it again and I have gone back to stock marshmallow after Lineage. There are firmware files in the 7z package under 'SW'. I used ONLY Multiflash to go back to stock each time. I think the stock flash, with Multiflash, flashes the firmware as well because I have noticed the same names of the firmware files in these 7z 'SW' directories. So...

I have never flashed Lineage without flashing the firmware files because I first flashed the stock Nougat 7.1 with Multiflash, then I flashed Lineage so it already had the firmware flashed.

I think you should flash the 963 stock ROM with Mulitflash, then...

. unlock bootloader with adb/fastboot

. Boot into TWRP...do not flash yet.

. Wipe everything....data, system, etc

. Install Lineage. 20180514

. Install Lineage 'addonSU' for root.

.Install 'ssc-sensors...'

boot system...you can install TWRP with TWRP app when ready.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
That's a plan!
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
Sorry forgot...install Gapps as well when you like....I use the Pico version.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
Sir, do you even read?

I explained in quite simple words in the top post (where you apparently could find the sensors zip) that the issue happens because a Qualcomm daemon (sensors.qcom) decides it's not worth it to read what the orientation sensors configuration is, on each boot. Instead it keeps a cached configuration in the /persist/sensors/sns.reg file. All that the TWRP zip is doing is delete the cached configuration, so that the Qualcomm daemon will read again the (different) orientation sensors configuration.

This has nothing to do with CM/Lineage. It is just that so far nobody has bothered to change the default screen orientation of a device from portrait to landscape.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
Geez, I hate Windows. It is complaining about some side-by-side error, which prevents MultiFlash Tool from starting up. For now I think I'll stick with Lineage.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
Actually I do read...the point is why does this ONLY happen when the Lineage ROM is installed. The Lineage ROM must be oriented differently from the stock Lenovo ROM. And being a Tablet it is obvious from the result from the Lineage ROM because it ends up looking exactly like a phone but 90 degrees off.

It's no use you having such an attitude about this because the reality of it is that if this is the case why does Lineage not clear the cached configuration during install to prevent having to clear it with the sensor zip. Now we have to clear it again if we need to go back to Stock...which is logical to conclude that Lineage has something to do with it. I have also been flashing ROMS for many years and CM never had that issue on other tablets...and if this is something unique to Qualcomm then surely you, who is the expert, should be making some allowance for it...and saying

"that the issue happens because a Qualcomm daemon (sensors.qcom) decides it's not worth it to read what the orientation sensors configuration is, on each boot. Instead it keeps a cached configuration in the /persist/sensors/sns.reg file. All that the TWRP zip is doing is delete the cached configuration, so that the Qualcomm daemon will read again the (different) orientation sensors configuration." just makes no sense, because how would it know that it is different if it did not read it each time it boots to find out?

I have said before that I am not a Linux/Android specialist but logic is logic and it makes no sense to me. This happens on most Android apps which are not optimised for Tablets and quite frankly it makes little sense to me...because I write Windows Apps and it is quite simple to program a windows which will find it's orientation and size itself to the size of the monitor/screen.

Finally you say: ..."This has nothing to do with CM/Lineage. It is just that so far nobody has bothered to change the default screen orientation of a device from portrait to landscape."....what does that mean? and why has it nothing to do with CM/Lineage when the Stock ROM was fine in the first place? What default screen orientation, of which device, are you referring to?

You must install "Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable" Just search it and install it. It's really not windows it the guy who wrote the program....run-time components are required to run apps, which are developed using Visual Studio. The same thing applies in Linux.

Well I did install 2010 and 2012 but couldn't be arsed to try out every package to find out which fits. Thank you.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
Well thanks for that clarification. No where previously did you explain this in such detail where it could be understood by someone who has an inquisitive mind, like me. So we know now that it is all Lenovo's bad engineering when all the time I thought they knew what they were doing. I am not complaining as much as you think I am, and I have thanked you many times for your efforts, so please just try to understand what I was trying to achieve by questioning you...and I am much wiser now about the state of this device.

This was my first...and will be my last... Lenovo device, so I will just try to make the most of it for now... I am still using this ROM and it works fine for me, and I will stay around and update as an when you come up with new compilations.

Thanks again.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
I'm glad this debate came to a peaceful end.

Keep in mind that I'm still thinking about ways to remove the need for the orientation sensors zip, but I can't think of any other way of doing that, short of distributing my own stock ROM installer, where the fix will be present, and then having to convince people that my stock installer is more authoritative than whatever else they may find on the internet. I am also very open to constructive suggestions.

So for now, this ROM comes with a zip addon, just know that you need it.

P.s. please also try to refrain from making these overly simplistic generalizations and learn to not expect anything from anybody, especially an Android OEM. I'm being told that Lenovo are not out of line with what other manufacturers do to release their devices under tight schedules.

[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
So I'm running Stock Nougat and Wi-Fi is indeed much better.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
So I flashed [MENTION=7398554]vladimiroltean[/MENTION] 's latest Lineage build on top of stock Nougat without flashing firmware.zip and I'm happy to tell that Wi-Fi's all good.

[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
Wait...

If you flash the firmware zip, does the Wi-Fi go bad again?

If it doesn't, it means I missed some important partitions in the zip?

there are 7 files left which are not in the firmware.zip file but are in the stock files which are found in the 7z mentioned above.

version
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
I see and I respect that.

Can you at least tell me what was the upgrade path since you got the tablet, so I can reproduce? Stock marshmallow (never stock nougat) -> Lineage based on stock Marshmallow blobs -> Lineage based on Nougat blobs and our firmware zip?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] NY1M6gTOR3Rj6AGKXTcx:
Nevermind
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
My upgrade path has been:

** Original tablet was on Marshmallow **

. Stock Nougat using the 7z Multiflash process

. Lineage...I now have latest on OP.

. addonSU for root.

. gapps ...pico

. ssc-sensors...zip

After setting up the tablet I installed TWRP with TWRP app

Everything works fine for me and I have no problems with WiFi. Everything I normally do is working well.

There is one small problem which I found...everytime I reboot my tablet I have to manually turn on WiFi because it is turned off, it remembers the SSID etc and connects immediately.

Good job.

What about the Dolby addon now, [MENTION=2806083]DerEineDa[/MENTION]?

It is still there on 1.page!

So Is it working with the newest build 20180514?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] tombraga:
I tried right now the 1. (of 3) viper addons from magisk and it works fine and improves really my sound. I use the newest build 20180514.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] tombraga:
Viper version I use
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] hmsq:
It doesn't work, I've tried on latest build, the app crashes everytime. But as someone said viper is a solution.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] tombraga:
This someone is me, i could install it and worked fine.

Then i uninstalled viper, because i thought it provoces that my wifi is disabled after normal system start.

But then i saw, that is not the problem of viper, but might be a problem of the newest rom build, because the problem continued, that after normal system reboot, the wifi always is disabled, this issue did not happen with former builds!

Now i reinstalled viper and will test it more time.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] Finefeather:
I experienced the same with latest build... wifi OFF after reboot. No Viper, only Lineage stock sound. Eventually the Wifi turned off and would not turn on again.

Back to Stock nougat, encryption disabled, rooted and self unbloated and configured and tuned with some root apps. This Lineage rom does not give me anything I cannot get out of the stock rom for my needs, so am going to wait and see if Oreo comes along one day.

would that help you?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
I think I pinned it down to the kernel WLAN driver having issues (as I double-checked the other components and can't seem to find anything dubious) but sure, please go ahead. It can't do any harm if I get feedback "from the field" and perhaps find out that some of my assumptions were wrong.
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] waleed.star99:
The logcat and dmesg was not enough?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] vladimiroltean:
It was "enough" in the sense that you provided what I asked for, thank you.

Whether it was enough in helping me figure out something conclusive -- that is debatable.

One thing that I noticed was that, despite my MAC address readout correction, yours was still wrong (00:0a:f5:xx:xx:xx) was weird, and I'd need confirmation for that from others having the F, if possible.

But the invalid MAC and the deauthentication with reason code 6 are most likely completely unrelated. More likely a bug in the WLAN driver, which I came to realize very recently is not in sync with the kernel tag we're on.
