Managed to find a stock rom, i tried sammobile but needs a paid account to download old roms.

Anyways it's alive again.

I'll let it recharge and install LineagoOS 14.1 again, but this time i won't change the filesystem and keep it EXT4.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] anon1811:
Maybe time for me to retire this tablet now. I wanted to use it to stream movies on the train. Result: Your browser version is too old (WebView 90). Then I had the great idea to install the latest WebView from the store and tell Android to use that (developer options). Now it runs with WebView 119. Result: Your browser is too old. Google recently stopped providing WebView updates for Android 7. My last hope: Is there some kind of unofficial WebView 120 that I can install on Android 7?

Anyway, thanks to the developer(s) for prolonging the life of this tablet by so many years.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
To what did you change the filesystem last time?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
Is "WebView" the name of a browser? I'm used to hearing it as the name of a system component that ends up doing most of the work for most browsers.

Do you have Chrome? Can you update it in the Play Store? Does your streaming site react any differently?

Does the streaming site have an app?

(From site to site I've had it go every way: browser doesn't work, app does; app doesn't, browser does; both work; both don't.)
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] TheDeeGee:
F2FS, as mentioned in the first post from the ROM author.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Mrkijo:
nels83 are you planning on developing Android 8 for this tablet, since it is much smoother than 7.1. I'm using (build from XDA forum) Android 8.1 on tab2 with Android Go which runs nicely on that old tablet.​
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] TheDeeGee:
Pretty sure LineageOS 14.1 is the highest possible for this tablet due to it's hardware.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] anon1811:
WebView is not a browser but (from my understanding) the browser engine that can be used by third-party browsers (just like Gecko is used for Firefox or WebKit for Safari). Installing Chrome leads to the same problem. The latest version is not available for Android 7 anymore.

There is also no separate app for the streaming site, unfortunately. But it's ok. The device is 10 years old. But thanks for trying to help.

Hello everyone,

I have made a new build for our tablet with the latest available sources of LOS14.1 .

I have also included the security patches (up to December 2021) and all Android-TZDB. (thanks to @Deltadroid , who backported the security patches to branch cm-14.1).

I will also create builds this month with the security patches up to December 2023.

I know the tablet is not the fastest. Here is my setup, I think it works quite well. But it could just be my imagination.:

- install/use magisk 26.4 (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases)

- install magisk modul Magisk Swap On (1Gb+bs=2M) (https://xdaforums.com/t/swap-for-samsung-galaxy-tab-3-10-1-gt-p5210.3421538/post-83260681)

- install magisk modul Yakt-v13 (https://github.com/NotZeetaa/YAKT/releases)

- install magisk modul microG revived instead of GApps (https://github.com/nift4/microg_installer_revived/releases)

- i don't use an google account on this tab, install Aurora Store (https://gitlab.com/AuroraOSS/AuroraStore) for app donwloading and use it anonym

- use material files as file explorer and give it root rights, then add these to the build.prop:

Which TWRP Version do you use @RealSalva ?

The errors "E:Unknown command" don't matter. But I didn't have them.

The latest version for our tab is 3.4.0-3.

You can find it here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=profile&uid=817550096634791803

Maybe, start from scratch.

1. backup your importent files you need

2. update TWRP to 3.4.0-3

3. change filesystem of cache and data back to ext4 when you use f2fs (I have not noticed any advantages of using f2fs, rather still had problems)

3. wipe dalvik, system, cache, data, internal storage

4. install Rom and magisk
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] ivanko2:
Good job. Thanks

I tried lineage-14.1-20240102-UNOFFICIAL-santos103g (without any gapps and with open_gapps-x86-7.1-pico-20220503)

Everything ok except voicecalls. There is no sound at all or high level noise.

Calls through whatsapp are ok. Youtube is ok too.

Is there any hint or advice?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] chris-89:
I don't use the device for calls but yes I have heard about the bug on our device.

Unfortunately I can't "code" but I can have a look at the mixer_paths_0.xml of our device and look at other reference xml's or commits. Maybe I can find inconsistencies or similar problems that could be fixed.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] ivanko2:
I tested Recorder in audio and video modes. In both cases Recorder stored video and sound without corruption. At least this part of mixer works well

Audio from youtube is routed both speaker and bluetooth, but audio from telephone is not routed anywhere

Thanks man for all the info. Magisk Swap On link is dead btw. @chris-89
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] purgy:
As far as Im aware, it's not possible as the soc used (Intel atom) was only ever used on one other device, and that was never updated past nougat, so the necessary files for later android versions don't exist.

It's explained somewhere properly towards the start of the thread.

- Remove "text relocation" warnings in x86 apps.

- Fix distorted sound in calls

- Increase volume

But I can't say when I'll get round to it and whether I can fix it. But I will have a look at it when I have time.

My tab is currently dead, need to do the pull it apart and disconnect the battery thing this weekend.

My main use was browsing / streaming from my home network with mx player. I found it can handle playing 1080p files over the network just fine.

For YouTube, the proper app / revanced is just too heavy for this device, I either use newpipe, or dl the file with seal then watch it with mx player.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] Kantilo:
Given the resolution of the tablet, watching 720p is sufficient I believe there is a common problem on these tablets with motherboards, I don't know if this is the case for you

Hello i need help to solve this error

I downloaded the zip file from several PCs, but it's the same error
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
Have you tried extracting the contents of the zip file on a PC?

Where did this come from?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] dzboss:
I downloaded it without opening it on PC. I downloaded directly from android. I still have the same error.

I downloader from this link
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
I don't understand "downloaded...from Android".

Try extracting, or at least browsing, on some computer, using some archive-capable program. To me, the simplest approach is to use Windows Explorer on a PC. Double-click on the zip and its contents are displayed, as if it were a directory.

If you don't have a PC, there are Android apps. Mixplorer would be my choice.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] dzboss:
yes with winrar

windows explorer after extracting

what should i do after that ? repack it ?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
I was just looking for you to confirm that not everybody agrees that the file is corrupted.

I wouldn't bother trying to repack it unless you have an idea of what you are trying to fix.

The only things that come to mind are a change in ZIP version, and sometimes these ZIP files need to be assembled in a specific order. (For instance, it might be essential that the META-INF directory be the first thing inserted into the archive.)

I think you should wait to hear from @chris-89.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] chris-89:
@J.Michael thanks for caring

@dzboss hm strange

[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] chris-89:

[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] RealSalva:
oh well thought with security patch May 2024😅
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] dzboss:
ihave this error
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] chris-89:
Yes, I can see the problem, which is why I also shared the MD5sum. I think the downloaded zip is corupt. That's why TWRP also says "md5 file not match". I just downloaded the zip and the md5sum too. Opened the md5sum, checked the md5 hash of the rom zip with 7zip and compared both. Here it fits.

Check that and you will probably see that it does not match.

How do you download the zip file? Android or Windows PC? Maybe change browser...i don't know what you are doing wrong 😅
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] haramo:
Dear

I suceeded to update android 4.4.2 to 7.1.2 on my old Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 P5210 WiFin using TWRP 2.8.7.1 ( could not get 3.4.0-3 work, tablet kept booting... ) , open_gapps-x86-7.1-pico-20220503 and lineage-14.1-20240311-UNOFFICIAL-santos10wifi. in TWRP I clicke the Wipe then Swipe to factory reset, without clicking on the other buttons (advanced wipe, format data).

Thanks for all the info , could not do it without your support, reading a lot on your forum.

That said, I wanted to test the game brawl stars, but Play store does not let me install it.

After googling: minimum requirements are oke on this tablet to be able to play this game.

I googled further: it could be that these kind of games , know the tablet is rooted.

Is there a method to make tablet show as an original?

I'm learning, it took me a long time to start the process to update the tablet mentioned.

Update, same message for app Wire secure messanger that allow to chat video call without a phone number. I can't donwload it, message is : searching for .... ? This app doesn't work on your device(translated from Dutch).
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
If you were really having a problem with an app that refuses to run on a modified device, you could look into using Magisk. (If you are already "rooted" but not with Magisk, then you would need to research that puzzle first.)

If the play store is refusing to let you download, maybe the current system is identifying itself in a way that conflicts with the play store's list of acceptable devices.

If you used the same Google account to install an app on another device, you might be able to use the unacceptable device to go to Play Store Manage Apps, find the list for "not installed" -- I can't remember whether that got me around a Play Store refusal; I don't know whether what you're seeing is different from the "not optimized for your device" that I've seen.

If you have the app on another device, and the other device is rooted, you could copy the apk file from somewhere in /data/data, try moving it to the newer device.

If you're really desperate, there are web sites full of apks. No idea how to decide which to trust.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] haramo:
Dear

Thanks for this workarround.

I went to the "not installed list" and saw brawl stars but it has a description: not available on this device. I clicked on it anyway, but after waiting, still no brawl stars on the tablet installed. I thaught I saw a textmessage after clicking on the app, to intall it. somehting about, app will be shortly on this tablet.. But this text message went so fast away, not sure if it mentioned it would install.

About tablet is rooted. Maybe I used the wrong term. I meant that tablet has a custom rom. That's it.

I checked the settings, clicking several times on version number, checked the development settings, usb debug was not anymore active, not other settins. I closed the development settings.

Is Magisk an app? or do I need to use TWRP to implement Magisk?

I tried to find in this forum a threat that explains Magisk with Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 P5210 WiFi, couldn't findd any.

Any detail about Magisk would help. I google it, and it says something about hiding so the apps can be installed.

If this solve the issue I have (searching for .... ? This app doesn't work on your device(translated from Dutch)) , it would be great to put effort in this subject to understand and implement it on this tablet.

I also came across playprotect, when I check this in my account settings in playstore it says that device is not protected. Could this be a cause why apps are not work on my custrom rom device? Play Protect-certificering , device is not certified.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
You should make an effort to identify to whom you are speaking. Quote a post, cite a user by using an at-sign ("@") followed by his username.

I am not involved with the ROM in this thread. I had a mild interest because I thought this thread dealt with a Samsung device.

I don't know how to get a better look at the text message. I imagine I would keep triggering it until I managed to read it, or I got tired.

I don't think Play Protect has anything to do with your problem. I don't think it has anything to do with an app from the Play Store. I think it is Google asking for permission to inspect any apk you dare to install from another source. I have it disabled.

For information on Magisk, you need to read the Magisk threads. If you are lucky, someone will mention this ROM. Almost as good will be references to other LineageOS ROMs on Samsung devices.

Do you have another, rooted, device with the app installed? Have you tried locating the apk file on the old device?

Failing that, wait for someone else to offer advice.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] haramo:
@J.Michael

Dear, I responded on your reply :) .

Ok , wil use @ username .

I don't have another device.

I already started to search for all threads to do with 'Samsung Galaxy Tab 3' and then hit CNTRL F and search for each page the word 'magisk'.

Crazy as it is, but found some only threads about other devices.

After reading here and there, more questions arise:

Can i use the latest magisk version or not for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 P5210 WiFi?

Can i still use TWP to install magisk from boot? After I already installed the custom rom and the Gapps? Not sure about which order ... .

Still not sure what Magisk can do for me, even after googling : only found that magisk is a method to root.

I even went seachting what root is and how to.

Several threads talk about rooting and how to tutorials. But I did not use any root file zip , when I upgraded the tablet with custom rom. So is my tablet not rooted using only TWRP?

I understood that to be able to install Magisk, I should first root?

Thanks for clarifying that the play protect had nothing to do with why i can't install certain apps.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
I think if you didn't know what root was, then you don't need to know now.

Ditto for Magisk.

Your real problem is installing an app when Google Play doesn't want to give it to you.

The easy answer is "find another app". Maybe contact the author / distributor of the app you want and ask why Google Play won't let you try it.

Maybe your device is so old someone assumed it couldn't work. Maybe he's right.

Maybe it's something really stupid, like you are being excluded for geographical reasons.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] haramo:
@J.Michael

Thanks for general oversight.

game brawl stars works in Belgium, installed before on bleustacks in pc, no issue

So will not be a geographical issue.

The samsung is old yes, from 2013 . Normally this info is known by all... .

So even hardware can be the issue why certain apps cannot be installed? hmm only minimum requirements mentioned for brawl stars was 1 gb and minimum android 7.0, nothing mentiones of hardware requirements.

ANDROID:

OS 7.0 or better

1 GB of RAM minimum (more recommended)

800x480 screen resolution minimum

We cannot guarantee these specifications alone will be enough to run the game smoothly. Devices are made for different purposes, and not all lend themselves well for gaming. Also, the game may be unstable if your phone has a modified OS or a custom ROM.

They do say that game could work but not stable on custom rom, so hope someone has a work arround alreday invented ... . So I think the tekst in paly store ... not available for this device, should be another cause .. .

Update: i just filled in contactform and send message to brawl stars, seee what they will tell me:

Dear, i have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 P5210 WiFi released 2013, and upgraded throug custom ROM to android 7.1.2. According to your article, it can work but unstable. But I can't even download the app braw stars. play store mentions : searching for .... ? This app doesn't work on your device(translated from Dutch).

The tablet has the minimum requirements your article mentioned:

1GB RAM.

Here are extra details of the tablet, hope you can tell me if the cause is one of these parts:

disk 16 GB

ram 1 GB

processor x86 processor i686

6800 mAh battery

Resolution 1280 x 800 pixels, 16:10 ratio

Dual-core 1.6 GHz

Chipset Intel Atom Z2560

GPU PowerVR SGX544MP2
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] J.Michael:
If you installed it on a PC, you have the apk -- copy it to the device, try to install.

"May be unstable" is not a report of a known problem, it is a generic weasel disclaimer.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] RealSalva:
Have u rooted the device with Magisk ?
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] haramo:
@RealSalva

Dear , I used WTRP to install the last OS with recent security patches .

See detail first message I send a few days ago .

I did not used magisk as it was not one of the steps mentioned in this thread.

And I still don’t understand if my tablet is rooted : does using WTRP , makes my tablet rooted ?

@J.Michael

Update brawlstar : I installed the apk from Aptiode platform.

It installed successfully .

I started the game : black screeen , then after a while the game is completly closed , without any message to tell that the app chrashed .. .

Tried several times : same .

Checked ram used : 53-63 %

So I assume another bottleneck.
[Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Android Development] RealSalva:
To check if its rooted, install this 👉https://root-checker.de.uptodown.com/android

I installed Brawl Stars 55.256 apk on Apkmirror.com, even after 30 minutes the screen remains black.

And over 10 years later we still have updates for this tablet, thank you so much, you guys are crazy awesome!!!

When I installed this ROM a few years ago I changed the filesystem to F2FS hoping for better speeds. To be honest I was disappointed. Anyways, I have been using the tablet often despite the slowliness.

Today I happen to come accross your post and I decide to update. I had some issues because for some reason it's impossible to detect the tablet through USB, not even adb nor recovery by mounting the filesystem (I would get unable to locate storage device error all the time), so I had to do the process with a microSD card. I didn't install any microG's nor any magisk packages, just basic root for adaway and others and...

It's alive, and much better than before! It's snappy (considering an 11 year old device) and everything works as expected.

You guys are geniuses! Thank you so much!
