Well, after all your work that you have done for us, I decided to try. Back to stock nougat, I've installed official Netflix app from Playstore and you know what?

960x540. No more than that. I've watched the same episodes from test patterns on my TV and it gives you back higher resolution.

So, for all of you out there, it doesn't matter if you have L1 or L3. If your device is not "certified" by Netflix, you won't see any HD at all. It's a shame because all iOS devices can do so.

DRM info gives an L1 device. Anyway...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
Thanks for testing !

Did you wipe /data partition too ?

Are you still on stock Nougat ROM ?

Pls delete folder "/data/mediadrm/IDM1013" .. only the "IDM1013" folder and reboot.

Still 960x540 ?

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] ciccio83q:
Yes I did a full wipe by installing a 4 files rom with Odin. As a brand new device. It doesn't work either way. Still 960x540. At least now I know I should blame Netflix for it. Such a pity a 4K plan it's almost useless.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
Thanks again for confirmation and testing !

4K plan makes sense if you own and use other (4K) devices too.

On a different ROM I use to have some Build.prop edits I found to do that tweeked a couple of things. With this I haven't found the need. However that doesn't mean I am not missing somethings. Is anyone on here that is using this ROM doing any tweeks in the build.prop? If so what and what do they do.

Thanks. Steve.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
I have never seen any improvement over build. Prop tweaks only placebo ones, really improvements come from within the framework code it self, only advantages I see tweaking build.prop is choosing a predetermined language or enabling softkeys on boot
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] TheArtfulPenguin:
I mostly agree, however there are good things in the build.prop to customize things. I'm not saying I get turbo charged or BIG changes, but more comfort or little improvements.

Being a network engineer I am not happy with generic DNS that the hotspot or ISP give me, especially googles DNS. I've found my browsing and some other apps respond quicker with the DNS I select.

I also don't need wifi scanning for changes every 15 seconds, the default, so I might use the scan interval.

I also like more on the screen and changing the lcd.density gives me more of what I want visually.

Plus there are some others such as jpeg quality that i need more information about. I believe it is set to display jpg quality at 75. Why not 100?

I don't think most tweaks are more for phones but there are some I think are good tablet settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
One rom I have made for an android TV gadget you could enable soft keys through build

Prop, but it was a lot more stable when enabling it on framework, at least it didn't have boot issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
This is going to be last rom for rr 5.8.5 and I want to think findmsi for delivering us this.

Also I think the new brightness algorithm a little bit too aggressive, it changes the brightness to very subtle light changes but is just a opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
Yes, we are coming to the end .. soon.

Did you feel it ? ;)

There will be an October Nougat ROM coming in the next days.

As always I will wait for lineage patching.

October has still not been merged.

https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/topic:n_asb_10-2018+(status:open+OR+status:merged)

The upcoming October build will be my last RR Nougat ROM !

For me it's a matter of time and priorisation .. no time left for Nougat anymore.

The sources are up-to-date .. it would be nice if someone else will take over RR Nougat builds in the future ?

Just let me know .. I am happy to handover ;)

DISCONTINUED

This is my last RR Nougat ROM .. October 2018

This month Lineage did approve the monthly patches very late ..

https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/topic:n_asb_10-2018

RR-N-v5.8.5-20181030-gtaxlwifi-Unofficial.zip

RR-N-v5.8.5-20181030-gtaxllte-Unofficial.zip

Changes:

RR-N-v5.8.5-20181030

- Google security updates -> October 2018

- Latest kernel security updates -> thanks to [MENTION=8985367]cschsz[/MENTION]

Sources:

Tested with Magisk 17.3 .. on earlier versions you may get bootloop.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mnd123:
Thank you once again for all the hard work. RR nougat was the first custom rom I installed on my T585, and besides GPS it works pretty flawless and I still stick to it for daily use.

Also I have a question - does the kernel of this rom support CIFS filesystem?

I bought a NAS recently and am trying to figure out how to play music on the tablet from it (I don't want to use DLNA because there are some issues with it on the cheap nas..). So one of the solutions would be mounting the shared folder on the nas (which uses SMB protocol) to the android filesystem, so that apps could use it as any internal folder. But so far I didn't have any luck in achieving this.. Maybe someone reading this had such experience and wouldn't mind sharing it?

I know I can use some of the file explorer apps to access the nas and open single files. But I would like to use some music player that could scan all files to its library and also then stream them further to a DLNA client without altering them
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Thanks Followmsi,

Besides having a good tablet is having good software running on it, with this rom, I can customize, and make the tablet work as I want, everything is perfect :)

Not going to upgrade to oreo for me is not worth it, the jump from marshmallow to nougat was necessary, because starting nougat the operating system handles memory pretty well so those two gigs of ram are of good use.

Just gonna pick up this rom and make my own modifications, gonna port RR 6.1 color themes to this rom and change the default fonts to the same used by iPhone. The rest is perfect.

As the old saying don't change the winning formula this rom has no bugs, everything works.

Thanks

https://github.com/followmsi/androi...rm64/configs/lineage-gtaxllte_defconfig#L4161

General Network filesystems .. yes.

But not explicitly CIFS.

Are you able to build new kernel for testing ?

Do you need help ?

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
If you want to continue with monthly Nougat builds pls let me know.

Enjoy customizing ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Followmsi

I would like to continue this rom but lacks for me some knowledge even though there are lots of tutorials on the net it would be easy to circumvent but most importantly a power computer, I own an amd laptop with a amd fx 7500 cpu with 8 gigs it would take forever to assemble a rom not telling the enormous heat it would generate on this laptop. When I purchase a tower pc I will adventure on rom assembling.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mnd123:
Well, if I'd be sure that enabling CIFS on the kernel would let me easily mount the SMB share to my tab filesystem, I'd be willing to try and learn the stuff about kernel compiling, and I would surely need a lot of help. But some more research about music streaming options needs to be done before that.. Anyway, thanks for the offer, I will keep it in mind.

About other network filesystems.. Any chance that AFP or NFS would be supported? I think they both are Apple's filesystems
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
As you can see inside the config file.. no NFS and AFS either.

APFS is Apple filesystem the two above are common unix filesystems.

Made a new kernel for Nougat .. enabling CIFS, NFS and AFS. ( but no NFS daemon - NFSD )

At some point I have to stop .. now I stoped building Nougat ROMs.

I still made Nougat ROMs for Nexus 10 and 580/585.

Now I will stop building Nougat ROMs for all devices.

For Nexus 10 there is maybe a new dev who will take over.

Maybe at some point we find one for 580/585 too. :)

Enjoy Nougat !

Thanks for the great ROM. I've been using non-stock ROM for a few years and I think this is the most stable I've used. Very refreshing and snappy.

THANKS! Steve.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Followmsi.

Just a final request to finish this topic, is it possible to add doubletap2wake to the kernel of this rom?

Is always based on kernel right?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mnd123:
You are very generous, thank you for that. Hope this will help with mounting the network share.

Edit: It worked! I can now mount my NAS's shared folder to my tablet's filesystem and use it with apps that only support local storage.

Not sure if previously I was not successful because the kernel did not support CIFS or because of my lack of knowledge in other areas.. But anyway, if someone who wants to mount an SMB share on this ROM and stumbles on this post, here's how I did it:

Install busybox (installing busybox means installing it in the playstore, and then opening the busybox app and installing one more time inside the app)

Write the following commands in terminal app (i liked Termux because you can paste the commands in it):

su

busybox mount iocharset=utf8 -t cifs -o username=guest,rw,noperm,iocharset=utf8 //192.168.0.106/xxx /data/media/0/xxx

not sure if su is needed, but I guess it is. also not sure about "username=guest,password=guest" part if the network share does not require a password, but if it does, you should enter your username and password here. Also, and most importantly - "/data/media/0" must be used for the media apps to see the mounted folder in internal storage, /storage/emulated/0 didn't work for me, I could only access the share by file explorers that way. Also, maybe an unmount command should be used when accessing the shared files is no longer needed. Will have to test what happens if the tablet is disconnected from home network or if the NAS is turned off.

p.s. if someone knows a good music player which could scan the files to its library by itself and would not rely on android's media scanner AND would support casting the music to DLNA clients - can you send me a PM?

Hi. A pad the SM-T580 model with "red-stripes". Thanks for twrp, it was set just perfectly.

And this firmware after installation works normally, but after switch-off of the screen it doesn't join any more. Only reset in the mode of restoration and reset in system from it helps. It is possible to solve this problem somehow? I put a firmware from 17092018 Thanks in advance. I apologize for my bad English.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
Interesting .. newer devices with the red stripes do have problems on Nougat too.

Same problem if you install lineage cm-14.1 ?

When you install RR Oreo version .. all fine ?

Did you test lineage-16.0 Pie version too ? .. all fine too ?

When time is left I may make a new kernel for Nougat, based on latest Nougat Samsung sources (BRF1)

The RR Nougat builds are discontinued, you may switch to Oreo anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] whw80:
I checked only drain firmwares with 6.0.1 on 7.0 for Russia. Only one works normally 7.0 from 21082018. I wanted to deliver yours, the same problem. Give please the link (reference ??? : ) to Oreo. And if there is time make please a kernel for Nougat. This firmware very much was pleasant to me. On 4pda.ru it is considered the most stable.

Today I got a new SM-T580 (32GB) .. BRF1 preinstalled. :)

Same issues like described above .. Nougat ROM does have strange graphics issues.

Tested RR Oreo too .. no problems - As Pie is using same kernel like Oreo - As it looks only Nougat is affected.

As well my latest TWRP is working fine .. no red stripes in recovery.

twrp-3.2.3-1-gtaxlwifi-OMNI6-New-Kernel.tar

Here is the new kernel for Nougat .. fixing graphics issues on BRF1 bootloader.

nougat-kernel-gtaxlwifi-20181108_BRF1.zip

nougat-kernel-gtaxllte-20181108_BRF1.zip

Pls install kernel as very last step via TWRP - after Magisk installation !

[MENTION=8985367]cschsz[/MENTION] - as it looks like you will have same issues with cm-14.1 builds and "newer" devices.

After some testing period you may switch kernel sources for your monthly builds.

All your security patches are already included, actually some were already included by Samsung now - still made "empty commits".

https://github.com/followmsi/android_kernel_samsung_exynos7870/tree/T580XXU3BRF1-nougat

Would be nice if some "old" bootloader users are testing the kernel too .. pls on LTE version too !

Pls confirm if tested on "old" and "new" bootloader - Thanks !

If the kernel is working fine on both bootloader versions I will make another "last" Nougat RR ROM including this kernel.

To make old and new device happy at the same time.

Cheers

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Viggen66:
Followmsi,

Really flashing a kernel the way you do it, is not for everyone, you know really allot about java and github, not me, alright how can I identify BRF1 for non BRF1 tablet, indeed I also have some graphics glitches on the tablet but very very subtle.

BTW are these fixes based on the ramdisk or on a init file of the kernel, as you know it can be rebuilded on the boot.img to be replaced on the main rom zip to flash everything in just one go.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
The graphics issues are quite heavy - white stripes and then black screen only.

Not too complicated to install via TWRP .. in case of clean install need take care of install order. That's all.

Just started to make (last) November release for RR Nougat .. not much changes this month, quickly merged them for new RR build.

Want to finalize RR Nougat in a good state. :)

Now we use new kernel sources now to make all devices happy, hopefully.

I doubt the new kernel breaks "old" devices .. but you never know.

We will see...

Edit:

Boot.img contains ramdisk, dtb.img and kernel binary.

The TWRP flashable installer for this kernel is replacing kernel binary only.

To be 100% sure ..

Tested November Nougat RR ROM (including the new kernel) on "old" device/bootloader.

As expected no issues at all .. the new kernel is backwards compatible.

If not Samsung would break old devices with latest Nougat firmware upgrade too.

First of all - thank you for this rom, I only got my Tab yesterday and can't wait to get off stock :good: :D

Question though - does RR-O-v6.2.1-20181108-gtaxllte-Unofficial have this new kernel too or did you only implement it on the final Nougat version?

Hmmm ... is OTG working for anybody?

I just tried with several of my USB sticks and absolutely nothing happened, no new storage shown anywhere. Is that a known issue or is my OTG adapter on the fritz lol?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Scourge of Ages:
Hi all,

I finally got this ROM and magisk 17.0 running, but there's one very important issue left: whenever I try to format my SD card as internal storage, the tablet crashes to a black screen and won't boot with the SD card still inserted.

This seems similar to an issue from a few pages ago, related to magisk, but I wasn't able to get any of the suggestions (that I understood) to work.

The problem is that I need magisk to pass the root check to be able to use netflix, and anything past 17.0 simply gets stuck in a boot loop. If I could completely remove root access, do you think that would solve the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Nimueh:
No idea about the SD card issue since I never wanted to run mine as internal storage. But why would you get a bootloop with a current Magisk? I rooted mine with 17.3 when I got it this week and it's been booting fine for days :confused:

SM-T585 if that makes a difference (it shouldn't though lol) :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mnd123:
Working fine for me, using SM-T585
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Nimueh:
Hmm, which type do you have?

Mine is one of those tiny cheap ones that don't have a cable or anything and I seem to recall them not working on all devices.

Maybe I'll just get a better one and try again.

Thank you :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mnd123:
Hm, I think I misunderstood. I only checked with a USB flash drive, that has a micro USB connection and connects directly to the tablet.

Didn't try with any other devices, using an additional micro USB > USB cable
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Nimueh:
Ah ok, no - that's why I asked if OTG was working ;)

I'll just get a slightly better one - they're under €2 so even if it doesn't work it's no big loss.

I'd still like to know if it's JUST me though lol :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mnd123:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Nimueh:
Yea, simple USB sticks ... I tried USB 2.0 and 3.0 and neither worked :eek:

I ordered 2 different adapters yesterday - but from Aliexpress, so I doubt I'll be able to test them this year :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Scourge of Ages:
I have no idea why it didn't work. Just that it didn't :confused: (T580 maybe that's it?)

Tried 17.1 a number of times, and 17.3 a few times, and then on a whim just 17.0 and it worked. Except for the mentioned problem...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mnd123:
Just tried with the cable and a few USB sticks, I guess they all are USB 2.0, and seems it's working fine - the sticks were detected and I could browse them. If you are using a cover, check if it's not keeping the cable from connecting all the way.

---

I think I have an issue with my T585 with this ROM - I messed around in terminal with a command a couple of times to disable doze mode temporarily "dumpsys deviceidle disable" followed after some time with "dumpsys deviceidle enable" - this one returns two lines that both deep and light idle modes are enabled. After some time I checked the device sleep history using "dumpsys deviceidle" and I'm not quite sure, but I think it returned both "light-idle:" and "deep-idle" (or something similar) states. Then I used the disable and enable commands a few more times and checked again after a couple of hours, and in the output I don't see anything related to deep sleep anymore.., only "light-idle:" lines.

Would anyone using this ROM be willing to check the output of "dumpsys deviceidle" and see if it contains the deep sleep states, just to make sure that I messed something up?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Nimueh:
Yea then it's probably my cheap OTG adapter - same type as the attached picture, cute but cheap :laugh:

I ordered 2 better ones and will wait until they get here.

I'm not brave enough to try those terminal commands for you, sorry - I've only had the tablet for a few days and anything terminal has never been my world anyway :angel:
