OK, I am using my 10.5" T800 latest stock Samsung MM rom.

My Browser was Firefox, I went to youtube and played a few movie trailers at 1080p with no problems, using 50% cpu and 25%gpu according to cpu/gpu meter & notification app.

EDIT: from netflix website.

New compression formats

Many Netflix-ready devices receive streams which are encoded using the H.264/AVC Main profile (AVCMain). This is a widely-used video compression format, with ubiquitous decoder support on web browsers, TVs, mobile devices, and other consumer devices. However, newer formats are available that offer more sophisticated video coding tools. For our mobile bitstreams we adopt two compression formats: H.264/AVC High profile and VP9 (profile 0). Similar to Main profile, the High profile of H.264/AVC enjoys broad decoder support. VP9, a royalty-free format developed by Google, is supported on the majority of Android devices, Chrome, and a growing number of consumer devices.

VP9 is only cpu(software) decoded on the Samsung Exynos soc, some S1 use Snapdragon soc, I do not know what codecs it supports.

Would you be so kins and install "DRM Info" app and check DRM Security Level under Lineage OS?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Hookmt:
Not really familiar with the app. I ran it (see attached).

Don't know what results mean. I do know I can run Netflix and Prime Video.

Hope that helps
[Galaxy Tab S General] Princeland:
Bad news then ... L3 means that you can not visualize Netflix in HD, you will see it in the sd resolution offered by Netflix for the L3. This is one of the reasons why it is better to follow an official Samsung rom to be able to watch content in HD thanks to DRM L1
[Galaxy Tab S General] maris__:
I guess this can be easily fixed in rooted roms by deactivating "liboemcrypto.so" under /system/lib, e.g., by renaming it to "liboemcrypto.so.off".

Best wishes, maris

I used these guys for an OEM battery they have also other spares as i needed to replace the charging port as mine has been used heavily over its 4 year ownership and was completely worn out. Was nearly tempted to upgrade but then used [ROM][7.1.2][OFFICIAL] LineageOS 14.1 - SM-T805 from iron rom and it made such a difference that my tab would go on a little longer if not a lot longer

[Galaxy Tab S General] lirong:
I have been looking for a new tablet - currently on the Tab S 8.4. I like this screen size very much and there are few choices anymore that are under 10". The M5 looked interesting but no LTE in the US (unless you are willing to buy a non-US model and mess around with that).

The truth is I love my Tab S 8.4 and it really does everything I need, but it has gotten VERY laggy and I cant figure out what to do about that. I am currently using ~13GB of the 16GB internal storage and an SD Card. I dont have many apps on it, but I do use it for downloaded video and not all of the apps (I primarily use Netflix, Amazon Video and Showtime) allow for storage on an SD Card, so they require internal storage.

I would love any suggestions people may have on how to get the Tab S performing more fluidly again.

---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:06 PM ----------

I also getting meaningfully more battery drain when watching videos on Netflix vs any other app. It drains the battery MUCH MUCH faster. And I am viewing SD...
[Galaxy Tab S General] Bushcrafter:
Well I checked out your link and I was all excited on getting a new battery from them( because the price is right), until I went to purchase one and found out that they do not ship to Canada. Bummer! :crying:

Thanks for the link anyways! I can get one in the USA but they want 50 US dollars plus Canadian money exchange is way too much that I'm willing to spend!

[Galaxy Tab S General] Bushcrafter:
Hi Ashyx,

Just a quick followup on my battery situation. I checked out your link and decided to buy a replacement battery from Laptopparts.ca.

I just received my battery today and replaced it in my T-800. I will do a followup review in the near future about battery life. It looks like a genuine

Samsung battery so hopefully (fingers crossed) it lasts as long as my original one. :good::)
[Galaxy Tab S General] ashyx:
Great stuff. I'll look forward to it. :svetius:

SM-T807A MM Root?

Has anyone rooted MM on the sm-t807A?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Bushcrafter:
Well after using my tab s T-800 with a new battery that I installed recently, it seems that the battery seems to be a genuine OEM replacement. The battery arrived with 9% charge in it,so after I installed it,I immediately charged it up to 100% and started using the tab as I normally would. The only glitch that has happened so far is that after 3 cycles of the battery, I was down to 50% remaining charge and all of a sudden my tabs battery indicator in the top right corner of the screen flashed red and said that the battery only had 5% charge left in it. Then it proceeded to shut down on its own. It has not happened since and I have full 25 cycles on the battery now. Anyways I will see what happens proceeding forwards with the new battery. I'm including an reading from Gsam battery monitor pro on my stats of the battery. I'm really not sure what it all means regarding SOT time verses battery life, so maybe someone here can fill me in on the details!
[Galaxy Tab S General] Eggnog01:
Thanks for sharing this. I ordered mine for my T-700 from them in November. I did some calibration (full charge-discharge) and sadly didn't notice a massive difference between the new one and the one I was replacing. That being said, it seemed fine, overall. This week it suddenly shut off while streaming - was at 25% - no warning, no controlled Android shutdown, just a straight power cut. I didn't visually detect the same issues in other threads with battery connector or charging port, but maybe I should next take it apart and try to reseat, reconnect?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Akopps:
My T800 just suffered the death by screen flicker, and I don't want to spend much effort or money on fixing it because it's already a franken tablet with dents and replaced parts. I guess it wasn't bad considered how much beating this tablet took. I am really not excited by the new Android tablet because they all come with serious drawbacks like no headphone jack, or ****ty A53 CPU, or overpriced, or not being whitelisted for FHD playback by Netflix (why in this day and age, it's a puzzle).

So anyways, by some shocking luck I run into an ebay vendor selling a T700 for 68 bucks, so I bought it and it arrived. The tablet looks like new. I will flash the latest MM ROM on its right now. In retrospect, I kind of wonder why I didn't buy a T700 in the past. It's so much easier to hold, while the screen remains pretty big.

RIP T800. Long live T700.
[Galaxy Tab S General] lytoh:
I agree it is not worth investing in other models of tablet today .. I to my t800 I will change the plate because it suffers from freezing and to work a few more years.
[Galaxy Tab S General] ashyx:
Just recently put my T805 back into service. It's like new as I've hardly used it.

It's now running Nougat 7.1 and is performing well. Forgotten how good that display was.
[Galaxy Tab S General] lytoh:
It is still a very good tablet today, seeing what is in the market I do not change it.
[Galaxy Tab S General] pantezuma:
Mine is 4 years old now.

Been having some wakelock troubles with magisk so decided to flash last British stock rom and debloat it with TWRP. After that, wiped data, cache and dalvik in order to have a fresh installation and copied hosts file to system.

More than happy now.

Just installed the few apps I usually use and can get 6 - 7 hours SOT using Chrome, Twitter and Reddit.

While watching movies in my SD Card drains about 11 - 12% / hour.

Not bad for such an old device.
[Galaxy Tab S General] benoitb85:
One problem I have with it is that youtube is limited to 1080p due to no VP9 codec support. Also the tablet is not as fluid as my recent phone while browsing for example.

But I'm still really happy with this tablet, especially for video and manga scans.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Long45Legs52:
Yes I also use Amazon Prime on my T800 works great,i also download a couple of movies to watch while on my travels this also works without problems.Cheers Robert
[Galaxy Tab S General] Akopps:
And what exactly did you expect? QHD? Puhleaseee. This is a format that's pretty much a universally hated/unaccepted format in the industry. There have been no QHD TVs (they all made a jump from 1080p into 4k), and streaming services like Netflix or Amazon Prime do not offer it (it's either 1080p or 4K). On the other hand, the nearly 5 year old Tab S is actually one of the extremely few Android tablets that's whitelisted to play 1080p Netflix and Amazon Prime content, and that's what should matter a whole lot more IMHO. There are brand new Samsung tablets that are sold today that can't do that.
[Galaxy Tab S General] benoitb85:
Support for 4K content downscaled to fit the screen.

No need for agressivity by the way.
[Galaxy Tab S General] Akopps:
What is this supposed to mean? Who is going to send/steam to your device 4K content when it's known beforehand that your device does not support it?

[Honor 9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dil3mm4:
This overlay APK is "born" because of the necessity to overcome missing overlays (thanks Huawei, love ya xoxo) under /vendor/overlay .

What it does exactly?

Nothing more than adding AOSP overlay matching our device capabilities and also, inherits Stanford power profile.

Do I need it?

Yes.

It will fix Battery stats problems and add compatible features for your STF over GSI.

This will conisderably enhance your experience on every GSI ROM giving better functionality overall.

Why you did that?

Because I'm sick of inheriting stuff that belongs to /vendor, in system.

Project Treble it's all about separating vendor implementation from system.

So why we should keep adding OEM stuff in that doesn't belong no more in /system

I have XYZ device with ZYX firmware can I use it?

As long as you're on a STF-*** device (with a non-EMUI firmware), you're good to go.

Otherwise

DO NOT USE IT FOR THE LOVE OF MANKIND

.

I don't have STF, but I want it on my Huawei device ! :( :(

Well, that's fine, join the Telegram group in my signature, so that you could help me with stock files grabbing to make an overlay for your device. :)

Overlay configs (aka "what does dis do, ser tell pl0x"):

Allows all rotations;

Configs autobrightness levels;

Configs autobrightness Lcd values;

Configs BLE;

Sets Doze Component;

Sets Doze After screen off;

Configs autopowermodes (doze related);

Configs power management on:

screen off due to proximity sensor interaction;

decouple on suspend state;​

Configs brightness doze value;

Configs Intrusive led;

Configs dual band wifi support (where available);

Configs hotswap (where available);

Configs Color Transform on HWC;

Configs VoLTE available (even tho it needs support on GSI side);

Configs WFC over IMS;

Configs wifi background scanning support.

Installation Instructions

Download the overlay

With root, push the overlay to /vendor/overlay. Create the folder if it doesn't exist.

Run the following command in a rooted terminal or ADB shell:

chcon u:object_r:vendor_overlay_file:s0 /vendor/overlay;chcon u:object_r:vendor_overlay_file:s0 /vendor/overlay/dil3mm4-overlay-STF.apk

Hi everybody,

as Google and forum searches led to nowhere, I'm calling on you:

My data plan includes 120 minutes per month of data traffic. The T-Mobile software CD for my Vario III included the SPB GPRS counter software, but it seems it monitors only traffic volume as opposed to traffic time.

So: is there a (hopefully free) software you use for monitoring the traffic time spent on GPRS/EDGE/HDSPA?

I wouldn't mind a simple phone timer as well, as the plan includes 50 free minutes telephone time.

Thanks, Robert
