New build with April Security patch

Hi all,

a new build is available for download and also being offered through OTA update:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/li...-20200410-UNOFFICIAL-gts210ltexx.zip/download

Security string 2020-04-05

Fix for CVE-2020-8597 (external/ppp)

Kernel: CVE-2019-10638 siphash 128bit for IP generation *

Regards, M.

_______________________________

* Kernel is usually updated every month, but I found that one worth mentioning
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] Homuncoloss:
Thanks for that easter present. Runs perfect.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] shutdown-h_now:
Thanks again for your kind support in security-fixing!

I'm just curious: How many active users do you have now via OTA and / or download for your build?

Happy Easter!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MSe1969:
Not too many: The March build was downloaded 35 times, will observe the April build...
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] shutdown-h_now:
I've got a question regarding your build:

Is it possible that it doesn't support external SD-Cards formatted in exFAT?

One of my SM-T815 (gts210ltexx) runs with the last official LineageOS from November 2018 and an external SD-Card formatted in exFAT to store files larger than 4 GB.

Today I made backups with TWRP and Titanium to update to your latest build.

All went fine. But when the system was up I realised that the Document Provider can't cope with the exFAT-SD-Card. Another SD-Card formatted in FAT32 worked fine.

Maybe this is a flaw in your build?

---

Edit: I must apologize, the Document Provider also doesn't work with SD-Cards in exFAT in the last official LineageOS from November 2018.

I didn't realise that because e.g. Amaze and X-plore work fine with exFAT. Only Titanium Backup Pro works with nothing but internal SD-Card because it uses the Document Provider to find the external Card. That doesn't work unfortunately ...

[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] :
Are there any chances to get build for gts28ltexx? The devices are very similar, so it will not be difficult to make at least one build with the last security patch.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MSe1969:
I normally only build for devices, which I own or have access to, so I can test.

Indeed, should be easy to build, as only the device repo is different. I may consider as a "one-off", but I can't and I won't provide any support and for sure no frequent builds.

EDIT:

Hi [MENTION=4753239]MINECRAFT4PDA[/MENTION] - see here - as said before, this is a one-off, no support, no further builds.

If it works, enjoy, if not - I can't (and therefore won't) do anything about it.

First: Thank you for new build with sec. string 2020-07-05, [MENTION=7929484]MSe1969[/MENTION]

Have you ever thought of building your fantastic build as /e/OS ROM, a Fork of LineageOS from the e.foundation, like colleague Android-Andi did with the classic Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 espressowifi & espresso3g based on LineageOS 14.1?

I encourage you to do so!

Happy building!

Regards, e.

N.B.: A /e/ OS ROM for the SM-T813 should be available in the foreseeable future.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MSe1969:
For other devices, I offer a specific build flavor with bundled microG, Aurora and F-Droid and some hardening features. Not sure, whether there would be enough interest for the T-815 as well...?

I know about /e/ and my microG build flavors go into that direction (or depending on point of view even further).

Offering another build flavor for the devices, which I build, will simply get too much.

Hello [MENTION=7929484]MSe1969[/MENTION],

Google has stopped providing security updates for Android Nougat at the end of October 2019. The Android tool SnoopSnitch analyses security patches and displays text-based: "Claimed patch level 2020-07-05"; patches up to 2019-10 are displayed visually.

1] Have an idea why the tool does not show a graphical display until 2020-07?

2] Does the Lineage Project Team port the security updates for Android Nougat from higher Android versions or do you have to do it yourself?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MSe1969:
to 2]:

Yes, the LineageOS community (in the case of cm-14.1 a couple of volunteers, to which I also count myself - however, other fellows are much faster than me each month, so mostly I am happy to take advantage of their work and at least I regularly provide testing feedback) performs the back-ports into the cm-14.1 branch of the official LineageOS sources. As far as the platform (i.e. device independent) parts are concerned. The kernel is back-ported by myself - however, also here, I am glad to look at other kernel 3.10 repositories to pick the changes from.

to 1]:

I have observed the SnoopSnitch behavior as well - it seems, that SnoopSnitch simply checks each AOSP branch separately up to the point where Google stopped the updates and does not take potential backports into account. Which in my opinion is absolutely logical, as these LineageOS backports are by definition unofficial! Therefore SnoopSnitch would need to "assume" how back ports would look like, to "continue" the analysis until today. Besides this being unrealistic, the target audience of the SnoopSnitch analysis are owners of smartphones with Stock ROM and not so much Custom ROMs. And no OEM performs unofficial backports.

Do you have a clue if this build will also work for a T810 (the WiFi only version)?
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MSe1969:
For the T810, a different device repo and config exists in LineageOS, so I assume, this build won't work
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] sundog1:
Thx a lot for your quick answer. I hoped its the same build for both with t810 just not using the lte feature...
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MSe1969:
Creating a T810 build as a "one-off" is possible, if I find some spare time - but as said, it's a one-off, it either works (then: Be happy and enjoy) or it has issues (tough luck: I don't have the device, so cannot help). And if it works: Don't ask for regular updates! If you could live with that, let me know
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] sundog1:
That would of course be great!

November 2021 custom build release

A comment on the security-string:

Up to now, I have usually picked the ASB topics from the LineageOS Gerrit, when the test feedbacks and my own testing looked good, before the topic got officially merged. As a matter of fact (but no complaints), the merge has often happened late on the LineageOS side, but the topics were always merged as uploaded.

However, CVE-2021-0514 and CVE-2021-0515 from July 2021 ASB are still missing! That is, why the security string has not been merged from July onwards in the official LineageOS repositories, because of those missing CVEs.

Therefore, I will show again the "official" LineageOS security string 2021-06-05 and show in addition a "Custom build release" to indicate the status of ASB backports - as usual, on a "best effort basis".

Happy flashing!

I did it once as a one-off, see here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=313611

I could do it again, when I find some time - but as I don't own the device, I can't test, I can't help, and I for sure won't do it frequently.

I really appreciate your great work, I have tried the build lineage-14.1-20200612-UNOFFICIAL-gts28ltexx.zip, the brightness of the screen is too high and the auto-brightness doesn't work (always at the highest level of the brightness), so I guess the screen compatibility would be an issue, anyway, thank you for your work!

Happy flashing - regards, M.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MSe1969:
In general, ext4, f2fs, FAT32 and exfat are supported; They are enabled in the kernel config and drivers are part of the kernel. I use a large external SD "out of the box", so obviously FAT32 works and ext4 is defined internally as filesystem for all the partitions, so definitely works very well.

I have however no experience in actively using f2fs and/or exfat on this device, but I do not see a reason, why it shouldn't work. If you want to - fully or partial - use the SD card as adopted internal storage, I'd got for ext4 to be on the safe side.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] tamjan:
I'll try exfat and see. I just downloaded your newest build as well.

I also have a YTX703L, on which I run the official build. There nothing seems to be supported. But I've gathered that this is a problem with recent versions of Android/LineageOS only. So, for our Samsung device with your LineageOS v14.1 I'm hopeful. :)

Thanks much!
[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] MSe1969:
I haven't tried myself (and I don't own such an adapter), so no idea.

The T-815 supports this with regards to its hardware (based on what I could look up when searching the net) and the vendor blobs are extracted from the Samsung original Stock ROM, so I'd say "give it a try and report back here".
