Installed 181011 ontop of 181008 to get screen blackout fixed.

It works but some apps disappeared. Among them Google Keep.

When I try to reinstall I get an error message (translated from swedish).

"This app connot be installed since another user has already installed an uncompatible version of this app on your phone"

The app(s) are not visible in settings and I looked through the filesystem in places like root/system, root/data and so on but the app(s) are not installed.

Anyone know what to do?

You are a star followmsi! Thanks a lot for this update! Just installed? This update fixed my Microsoft remote desktop app issue and i can connect to my laptop again which is great?? Furthermore my banking app is responding fast as it should. Really great work man!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] silas67:
I installed this as you requested. I'm loving how it responds. But...after I put the tablet down to watch TV for about 2 hours. I picked up the tablet and it did it again. I had to do the pwr +volume key stuff to reboot the tablet to wake up. I know the tablet is on because I here the sound it makes when I push the pwr button to wake. Screen just stays off. I've scoured the settings and can't figure out how to make it stop doing this. Its frustrating. When I used the RR builds it wouldn't do this so frequent as these. Any suggestions would be very very appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] BAM1976:
When I awoke I tried immediately and my t580 is working fine still, really hope it stays this way, performance is perfect so far!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
I will have a look ..

Did you mix 64bit and 32bit installations ?

Try to remove the app first .. yes, you will loose app data too.

Yes .. it's known .. will add the problem to the first page soon.

No idea when this will be solved .. can't test 585.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
Just typing on 580 .. after 8 hours sleep.

Battery life is fine and the tablet did wake up without problems.

Are you able to pull logs (logcat) when the screen stays black for you ?

Maybe this way we can determine root cause.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] silas67:
Im trying to get the log and replicate the issue to upload for you. This morning I hit the power button to wake up tablet. It didn't wake up right away but when I got back to it after maybe 20 min it was on. Just thought I'd mention that. Will upload logcat asap.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] BAM1976:
After using and testing this last update i can honoustly say this is the best performing ROM for T580 so far. Blazing fast, lowest battery consumption i have ever seen and stable:D

Any news about night mode?

Is reader mode (grey scale mode I think) working?

I'd like to try Android Pie and this seems to be a great rom.

Thank you for your great work, [MENTION=5480152]followmsi[/MENTION]
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] silas67:
I figured out what the issue was. Thanks for trying to help. The LCD cable in the back wasn't plugged in correctly. This last time it just wouldn't turn on for me to get the logcat. So I decided to take it apart. This is a "hand me down" from work. Whoever worked on it before broke the tiny latch that holds the ribbon cable in the connector. After seating it correctly and figuring out a way to make it stay it comes on on command. Now I can really enjoy this ROM. Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] btb55:
I wanted to try the 64 bit version and on first installation had issues with some apps FC and screen freezing, I was coming from 32bit RR and did full wipes in TWRP (3.2.3-1) as per first post. I installed again and this time formatted DATA first and the difference is remarkable. Its my preferred ROM now, no noticeable issues for me.

It may just have been my device (T580), but if you are having issues coming to 64 bit for the first time formatting DATA first might be a good idea.

[MENTION=5480152]followmsi[/MENTION] Your work here is simply amazing and really appreciated.

Hold the power+ volume DOWN + home button to boot to download mode.

At that screen hit volume down to reboot the device and before the boot up, hold down the volume UP+ power + home key to go to recovery.

The greyscale, night mode doesn't work yet in lineage also I believe so we might need to wait for lineage builds that get this fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] followmsi:
Tested NightDisplay .. also back screen.

Same for LiveDisplay.. not working in the moment - has been disabled because of black screen.

Happy to report that casting to Chromecast (original version), is working on the 64b edition.

I can cast from Youtube and the BBC iPlayer apps, will try out others as the need arises but would expect success as these two are casting.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] jmase:
I might have done that, the whole blank screen made try lots of things :)

Cannot remove the app since the app is not installed! Still I'm told there are a incompatible version installed.

Nothing in settings, no .apk file in system partition and so on. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
Probably the only way to get rid of it is to do a truly clean install. By that I mean not only wiping everything but also format the data partition. Of course, you should first back up all of your data because a format will erase it ALL.

Like mentioned above .. pls start from scratch or use latest working backup.

Thanks for your work
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] BAM1976:
Have had this as well (also in my TV app ziggo go) but if you just minimize and maximize screen it stays fine so minor flaw. For the rest stability, speed and battery usage is out of this world and best I have ever seen on T580 and i have used a few.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] RichyE:
Thanks for the help.

I noticed it that this sometimes works.

But 6/10 times it doens't work or after a minute it is back to the same problem.

Also when you choose a new film it goes back.

At the moment I use the browser too watch it, so indeed a minor problem.

Wifi is not as good as with stock rom, but still not bad.

Good battery and overal speed.

screen turns black for a seccond when you rotate

No problem, I have all data on my sd-card anyway.

NotificationBar icon fix is not related to omx rescaling issue in youtube .. etc.

For omx rescaling we need to wait for lineage team.

A patch is required for frameworks/av.

Flashed this rom today no real issues, amazing rom!

Only weird thing, every time i reboot the ondcreen navbar is back and i have to toggle the option in "buttons" twice to fix that. Don't know if someone elde is facing the same issue.

Next update will contain fix the Notification bar quick tiles icons only.

The black screen on rotation is more complex issue.

Camera and mobile data fixes?

Hi, I'm facing camera problems - "no connection to camera" in inbuilt APP and - "serious camera error" in opencamera. Did reboot and factory reset but doesn't fixed it. Will this be patches in the future?

Same question about Bluetooth and mobile data - will there be an update where both functions will work?

Great ROM so far.. I don't want to do without it anymore.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
I hope you know the meaning of RTFM. Only in this case it's RTFOP!! The camera problems and an alt solution are documented there. And I doubt anyone is "working on a fix" when an alternative already exist.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] saphir1:
Okay, I knew I'd make myself directly unpopular. Nevertheless, thank you for answering.

English is not my native language so I had to google rtfm and rtfop.

I'm not even the one with the lowest level here in the forum - I don't even have a level in developer topics.

I will go through the thread with my fullest attention and look for the part with the camera solution which you implied.

For wifi and Bluetooth is there an alternative?

Do you still have some time for an explanation?

Nevertheless thank you.

If necessary I just wait for what comes in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
You don't have to read the entire thread. OP stands for "Original Post", the first post in the thread. That post is constantly updated with the latest info by the devs. It gives you info on what is and isn't working and what alternatives there are for what isn't. Also links to the latest version of the ROMs. That is ALWAYS the first place to look for solutions to problems that occur when you install a custom ROM.

edit: Actually, that post should always be read, and thoroughly understood, BEFORE installing a custom ROM. That way, if something is listed under "Not working" that is critical to your needs, you don't waste time installing the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] saphir1:
Camera and mobile data are not so critical, but necessary in the longterm.

From OP:

Mobile Data connection is not working yet. - so my question is whether this will be corrected or when?

The Lineage built-in Camera app works fine

OpenCamera app works fine too

- unfortunately not with me

I have read the OP yes - I have installed it also after the instruction.

I lack the expertise and the language barrier doesn't make it any easier, but I can't find any alternatives in the OP.

I use the 20181011 64bit version from the beginning.

Mobile data (585) is know issue .. As mentioned above there will be a change for next release (added modemloader)

Bluetooth has been tested on 580 .. As I know no issues on 585 too.

Initial 20181008 release still had Bluetooth issues.

Lineage is using still standard Camera2 .. As it looks like the camera2 needs config files on "old" place.

For next release there will be a change ...

https://github.com/followmsi/androi...mmit/80644a2526fbf13ca8aee352505cc4cc45e62716

Made the same change for another device already.

You can copy the files from vendor/etc to system/etc manually.

This change effects camera2 only.

Open camera should still work fine.

If there are still problems I will need to have logs.

Member reddb7 helped me with my understanding problems.

I'm adding here what I wrote to him by pm.

If you need logs I will give them to you if I know how or where I get them.

But I don't want to steal anybody's time.

If necessary I wait for an update.

I moved the four green files media_Codecs.XML

Media_codecs_performance.XML

Media_profiles.XML

Media_Profiles_V1_0.XML

from vendor/etc to system/etc.

Then I moved additionally media_profiles.XML

And media_profiles_v1_0.XML

from the vendor/etc folder.

(TARGET_OUT_VENDOR) >>do this mean out of vendor folder?

Then I moved the other three media_***.XML -telephony -audio -video, also to system/etc.

Then I deleted the first four (the green ones) from vendor/etc.

Then I looked at the GPS.conf and saw that my GPS.conf looks like the gps_debug.conf from followmsi's file folder and then changed it with an editor. I didn't have a file gps_debug.conf before.

I copied the content from the gps.conf file from followmsi and pasted it into my system.

I then moved the two files to the system/etc folder.

I rebooted every time.

Everything without any changes.

I restored everything to its original state.

Hi ..

Still working on Nexus 10 .. got Lineage-16.0 too :p

For video calling I have updated OP as well ..

Camera:

- Google Camera app is not working correctly - and is not tested ! -> Pls do not install yet !

- Normally if you install Google Camera app via gapps you remove the built-in camera app - pls take care yourself !

- The Lineage built-in Camera app works fine - except for rear camera video recoding. (720p)

- OpenCamera app works fine too - also no rear camera video recoding.

- Footej Camera app works fine too - rear camera video recoding is working in this app too !

- Video calling (e.g. Skype) works on front camera.

I did not test rear camera for a while .. I doubt it's working now.

And no idea when rear video recording will work.

Very nice update to fix the quick settings icons which now look great. I still have the issue of the notifications being offset to the right of the quick settings icons though.

hmm posting as a guest.. interesting.

I just picked up this TAB today and thinking of installing custom rom on it. However I remember a few years ago when I used to use samsung s3 and another pad with custom firmware there was always a lot of problems.. Obviously no custom ROM is perfect but is this recommended for a normal user who just wants go get rid of some bloatware and regain some privacy from google/samsung? I just want to make a install once and use the pad as is for a while without maintenance and constantly running back and forth to forums for help and updates..

Maybe Im better of just rooting device and install some kind of a poweruser uninstall program to get rid of the samsung bloatware + some firewall to block some other shiet...?

What do you advanced guys think? Is my reasoning bad somewhere or you have any suggestions for me..?

Thanks a lot!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] steford:
Whilst I do like tinkering I also like stability and this ROM has that for me. You should be prepared for the odd bug though. I'm no power user and use the tablet only for browsing really. I do like using Android 9 though so this ROM (64 bit!!!) is/was great for daily use.

To play it safe you may want to root, debloat and install AdAway or something to see what you think as you suggest. You'll still be on Nougat though.

First of all thanks for your work. In the 64bit version from Valera1978 Banking Apps work very slowly and some apps do not even start (i.e. Keepass2Android) and also the Zoom Bug of the Youtube App is still included. You fixed those bugs. For that Valera1978 had fixed the rotation bug.
