The script writes to the build.prop each time it's flashed. I added 3 lines to the build.prop, so it'll keep adding those 3 lines each time it's flashed. Then you'll have repeat lines that aren't needed.

On the stronger debloat, I can't remove too much as this is for any S2. It's not build specific. So I just keep it basic for those that want to just flash and go. Not everyone is comfortable removing apps or editing build.props.

If I remove too much, it'll work for the WiFi variants, but not the LTE variants. Or vice/versa

There's only 2 reasons I can think of that that could happen.

You wiped /system in TWRP by accident

Don't do any wipes, when and if, you install this again. Let the script do all the work

or

Your /system is different from everybody else's.

Did you confirm that /system is at /dev/block/mmcblk0p19 ? While this is very rare, it's possible that the script over-wrote that block and that's why /system is gone. It got moved. But that shouldn't happen because the script also looks to the name of the block.

Do you have any more info that I could use to help you out? There have been over 18 DL's so far, and the original "Maker" has over 300 Dl's and this is the first time I have heard of this happening.

Edit: I guess you could also have a bad download. Make sure to compare the md5sum. AFH gives that with every DL.

i think it is a twrp problem. i did a system backup with twrp and afterwards system was gone again.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
You might have to use Odin to fix it. Then you can restore your backup. Just remember that Odin will wipe your internal SD. External SD won't be touched.

Also, and I hadn't thought of this, this is not a full ROM. This modifies your existing stock ROM. So if you wipe /system in TWRP, then it will be gone. I will update the OP.

I am still on Neked Nook 5.1.1. Will this work if I install it, or do I have to install marshmallow first?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] bavmouse:
Install:

You MUST ODIN N first if you want to use this!!! (May work for "M" also)

MAKE A BACKUP FIRST!!!!!

This is NOT A FULL ROM. So DO NOT wipe /system in TWRP!!!

Flash Maker in TWRP

what means: You MUST ODIN N first if you want to use this!!!

Thanks!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
It may? But it's 2 iterations behind, so you might as well Odin to Nougat. Updato is what most people are using to get the Odin .tar to upgrade.

Now we have a problem. Your /system is blk039, not blk019 like everyone else. You will have to use Odin to fix your tablet. N is Android OS Nougat.

Odin is what the factory uses to upgrade and fix Samsung Tablets and phones. It's not difficult to use, and there are a lot of helpful posts on how to use it.

These posts have links to many things to help you out. https://xdaforums.com/tab-s2/general/index-samsung-tab-s2-one-index-t3544310 and here https://xdaforums.com/tab-s2/general/guide-root-tab-s2-t3205019

While I can change the script to install on the 819, you don't have a /system or working backup to restore it.

In "Disk info" app, go to settings and check the first 5 boxes. Then go back to the app and find out what blk039 is. And also what number /system and /boot are. Your /system shows blk039.

But if your using Disk info, and your tablet has no /system. How are you showing me that picture? Did you get it fixed? If so, give the info above so I can fix the script to work for the 819.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
Seriously!? That should not be happening.

Is your TWRP backup restoring your Tablet now? And is it functioning correctly?

Do you have the correct TWRP for your tablet?

Are you rooted?

Something has to be wrong with your tablet, TWRP or Root. I can't see any reason why /system would keep getting wiped. And as far as I know, it's only yours. All I changed was the mount point and it did the same thing.

I'm at a loss and working blind here. Sorry

[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
See below

I'm not sure, now. I haven't had any feedback on what Tablets this has been installed on. Other than 710, 719, 810 working. 819 not working

To both:

In a rooted explorer, go to /dev/block and take a screenshot like the one I have posted here. Then I can see your filesystem. Maybe yours is different by one folder. You may have a /bootdevice folder that some Qualcomm devices have.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
That narrows it down. But you still have a different name for the block.

Scroll down and see if it's just blk36 or 2016 blk36

Edit. Also, look in /bootdevice and see if /by-name. If so, look in /by- name and see what blk36 is listed as

It has not worked again and I will now also stop flashing. Synonymous the backup I could not re-import and must reinstall the system again. I do not know what it is, but wants to use my tablet again and not every day reinstall and set up. Thank you for your great work and your commitment, but it does not work with me, why ever.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
I really need some feedback on what this has been installed on. So far I know T710, T810, T715 and T719 are all working. So that's telling me it is working for all. Except for 1 persons T819. And if it's working for the T719, then it should be working in the T819.

The one in the OP SHOULD be working for all. The one 2 posts up is for bavmouse, or testing purposes only

In the 40 DL's, it has to have been installed at least 20 times. Please let me know what other Tabs this is working on, so I can move ahead.

Hello, good I tested the zip for my sm t819. I explain what I did. First I made a factory reset, I installed twrp. I restarted on recovery, I installed flash the zip.

[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
Thank you.

Just to make sure, you used the Alpha's, 5 posts up, on the 819? And it's working?

And your English is fine. I'm just double checking. :)

Engine95, flashed v2 for 819 on my T713. Everything is working but none of the apps were DeBloated.

I'm 18 & 36.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
The apps won't be gone if they've been updated, as they are being used in /data/app now. Being in /data/app, they can be easily uninstalled by pressing and holding the icon, and swiping it to the top.

A Factory reset, or a fresh Odin will also remove /data/apps so you will not see them.

In a rooted explorer, look at the very bottom of the /system/build.prop. You should see "###ADDED###, along with a couple more lines. If it's there, then everything worked.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] sigetwibisono:
Why do u delete my files and music in v2? Isnt that good?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
Most people use a better file explorer. And Music is updated through the Play store so it ends up in /data anyway.

Hi! I really appreciated this tool on my Tab S2. Now I switched to a Tab S3 SM-T820. Can I use NEKED-MAKER on it? Thanks a lot for your work.

Allan
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
More than likely, No.

It'll probably have different mount points, and other add on's that might mess up your Tab.

You can look at the updater-script in the zip and see what's going on. Then you would need a rooted explorer to remove those apps.

As for the addon's that it does also, they may not work for the S3. Sorry :(
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
I finally updated to RB1 and this doesn't seem to be working anymore. It's killing WiFi, and Screen Mirror isn't working. Guess I need to put some work into it again. :p

My plan is to make more space so we can use DualBootPatcher here, https://xdaforums.com/tab-s2/orig-development/patcher-dualboot-multiboot-samsung-tab-t3683198. This will be for a /system install.

While we have room for it, we don't have much room for Gapps. micro and maybe mini (I can't remember) was all that would fit for Lineage.

We all need a Tab that works, and Stock just works. But it's nice to be able to have the choice to use these other Rom's making it our way. Finally. :good::good:

I should have this done in the next day or 2. Hopefully

V3 infos only For 2DRB1

V3 for 2DRB1 is in the OP!!

I will be updating and referring to this post in the OP also. So any and all infos will go here for V3.

This is for 2DRB1 only!!!

The RIGHT way to install this is in the OP.

1. Odin 2DRB1

2. make TWRP backup

3. DO NOT update anything from the Playstore

4. flash the Maker and you should be good to go.

Screen mirroring is working

Wifi fix (mainly seeing 5Ghz), SHOULD be working also for all. Let me know if not. There are some extra lines now that I don't remember being there before.

Removed list below - If you want something I've removed (mainly Samsung stuff) then don't install this!!!

Chrome and Webview are tied in with Assistant now and I could not get them to work moved to /data. So do not manually uninstall either one. (I tried everything on this one as these 2 alone would've saved 150+MB!!!)

You will now have 985MB for free space in /system after installing this. vs 514MB stock.

I can get almost 300MB more but we start losing functionality. ie Memo, Video editing, Gaming, Weather, Photo editing (These are all tied into the ROM so I won't remove them) But they are removable if you want manually.

Removed:

sys/app - All downloadable and will install in /data instead

Hey engine95, great to see you're still working on this and supporting some of the early S2 variants.

I'm still using you're 5.1.1 Nook ROM on the T710 and it's been great. It's now time though for me to make the move to Nougat.

Just one quick question. Do V1 & V2 work on 2DRB1 or is it V3 only?

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:

V3 is ONLY for 2DRB1. I tried to put all the info in the OP. Sorry, if it's confusing.

Hi guys,

I've discovered that one of the two Mi 5s ordered has the bootloader already unlock. Bought from G******.

Original firmware 8.0.3 installed, Imei is the same of the box, as serial number.

Could it be refurbished?

Estetically is also perfect, condition as new, pretty strange to find a bootloader already unlocked, first time.

[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] krzysiekb92:
No, I don't think so because Mi 5s (first from them) doesn't have unlocked Bootloader. I think it's lottery.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] BlackJetCat:
Usually sellers unlock phones and flash the Global Stable/Beta for European region. I think that your phone is new.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Valeriuz:
The fact is that you don't need to unlock the bootloader to flash the Global Beta or Global/Developer China.

You just need a deep flash cable, to reach the download mode, after that you can easily flash the firmware with Mi Flash.

Still, pretty strange.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] BlackJetCat:
Almost all users from 4pda said that their Mi 5S had unlocked bootloader. Usually sellers flash a global ROM port for devices without Global Beta/Stable support. I had unlocked bootloader too, MIUI 8.0.19.0.0. That a fake ROM, unofficial port of Global for Mi 5S. Usually sellers from chinese stores ( Ali*, Gear*, etc.) flash roms like this.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Valeriuz:
My only doubt is about battery, could be a old battery on a refurbished phone....

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Kalwren:
So I'm wanting to do my first hard reset.

It doesn't look like we're going to get any video drivers (soon or if ever), so I'm looking to try and squeeze some more performance out of my device. I've read that a hard reset makes things a bit better.

I've also installed and uninstalled a TON of software while trying to learn what I like and don't. I've figured out what I want and I've decided that what I'm installing should all be on my memory card anyway. So, the memory in the device is fragmented and I'm probably taking a performance hit from that.

What I want to know, is what to expect? What am I going to lose? I have an AT&T tilt. If I do a hard reset - I don't have to flash the ROM or anything like that, do I? Is it like performing a hard reset on any other phone? (Loss of contacts, pre-installed software from the service provider, etc etc)

Is it any different with a PPC?

After looking around, I didn't find much as to getting this question directly answered. If it is posted somewhere, can someone link me to it?

Thanks in advance!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Sparrowhawk:
It will simply go back to its "out of the box" state, like the very first time you turned it on.

The pre-installed software from the provider will load up again automatically, in five or ten minutes, you'll be good to go.

Then just adjust the settings to your personal taste/preferences, install the software you've found on xda-developers or elsewhere (I take it you have them backed up on your card or PC?) and you're back in the game!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Kalwren:

What about installed applications on the storage-card? Are they automatically recognized again or do they require reinstallation?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ionutz6:
just like when installing a windows-based computer, the applications installed on the storage card will not be automatically recognised, since the entry in the registry and all the .dll files from /windows directory are gone. you need to get the "kit" for a certain application - namely the .cab file - and reinstall it again, even if it will overwrite the most number of files on the card itself.

hope i was somehow clear.
