Hi,

I installed this great rom.. but I just wanna be sure.. is it needed to flash your kernel as well if I want to use it, or is it already in included in this rom?

same question about updating.

thanks for answer.

Would someone be able to proved the best recommendation as to the proper portions that I should select in TWRP for a successful backup and restore? I don't want to chose an incorrect portion in the event I need to restore this ROM. Thanks in advance!

Don't know what went wrong with my first try, but this time I dirty flashed over LOS 18.1, flashed nikgapps and magisk and everything appears to be working.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] amphi66:
This is the first major revision I have seen. Based on this comment, do I understand this version is to be treated as a new install and not as an upgrade to v6.13? Any secrets to the install? Or, for example, can it be dirty flashed or can a

TWRP backup of the data partition be restored after flashing?

Thanks for the fine ROM & your continued improvements.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] lewmur:
This isn't an update. It is an upgrade from 17.1 to 18.1. I was able to dirty but I was already running LOS 18.1. If you are still on 17.1, I think you'll need a clean install.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] amphi66:
Thanks. TWRP for Android 10 uses a different file/partition structure than in the past where backups generally included just the Boot, System & Data partitions. Which of the many new partitions are needed for a full, restorable backup?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] sharkie405:

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] lewmur:
Most people only comment when something doesn't work. No comments means everything must be working OK. I installed it when it first came out and haven't had any problems. But I'm not a demanding user as I have two other tablets and a MS Surface Book. I did stream yesterday's AFC playoff game and can report that after 3hrs streaming it still had 75% charge.

The 1/26 LUIS Rom cr 7.2 OTA update fails with download error - Known issue?

1/28 Edit: Back to normal.. The 1-28 update downloaded just fine!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] blackstuff5:
I installed the latest version from the website yesterday. Came from Stock Android 10. The difference in speed and responsiveness is outstanding so far. Amazing how the bloat from Samsung really hinders the performance of their devices.

I did have some issues installing with the instructions provided. I had to format /data before installing to get it to work properly, otherwise it would just end up at the crDroid loading animation in indefinitely. Once I was up and running, I got Magisk installed, installed MagiskHide Props Config and libomcrypto disbler. Rebooted. Ran Termux and elevated to su, ran props. Changed the device fingerprint to Galaxy Tab S5e for Android 10. Rebooted again. SafetyNet now clears basicIntegrity and ctsProfile. All good!

Does anyone experience random soft reboots? This rom is almost perfect, but this one thing is annoying. Although I use Magisk as well as EdXposed Framework, so the cause can lay somewhere here... But I want to exclude other possibilities
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] amphi66:
Magisk 'yes', Exposed 'no' ... .. not a single reboot in either v6.x or v7.x

Another question, not directly connected with the rom, but... One thing I really miss from the stock rom is floating windows feature. I know that on A11 we have freeform windows, but they have many limitations. I wonder if somebody knows any other solution for that. There were at least two Xposed modules (XHalo and SkyOline) with this feature, but they are no longer maintained and dont work on newer Androids. Or maybe at least somebody knows any way to open freeform windows always in the same position? That would help a lot... I tried apps from PlayStore like TaskBar and Floating Apps, but they don't work reliable or even at all. I'd be greatful for any hints 🤡

Hi Guys,

Fingerprint sensor doesn't work at all, it won't sense that you put your finger on it during the activation phase of fingerprint. I had this issue since day ... used version 6.13 (based on A10) ... today I upgraded to 7.3 (A11) ... formatted data ... reinstall flamegapps ... still same issue. Not sure if I have to go through the very painful process of re-installing stock rom then cr 7.3.

Any help here is truly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, ] amphi66:
i haven't been using fingerprint, but set it up to checkout your post and all worked normally & as expected (cr 7.3). Unfortunately it does appear you have a corrupt install of some sort.

That Lineage 18 link references an Odin firmware update back to last September, yet LuisROM crDroid V7.6 was updating his Android 11 just fine until a few days ago, so that doesn't seem like a valid solution.

Hi all,

I have a question about older ROMs: I need latest crdroid v6.x I can install on a S5e Wifi, because I need API level for Android 10 to check on an app I'm working with.

I saw that on the archive I can find v6.3 - however, the stock image installed in my tablet is the latest Android 10 version, and in that specific version I seem to be stuck in a reboot loop when crdroid splash screen shows. I guess that it's because the stock ROM is too recent to work with that version, but Odin doesn't let me downgrade the stock ROM before installing.

So, my question is: can anyone please share the latest crdroid they have? (I saw as far as 6.11 in the replies to this thread)

Or alternative, can anyone tell me how to downgrade the stock ROM? I am a newb with Odin, and it looks like that sideloading the stock zip from sammobile doesn't work either with TWRP, so I am a bit swamped here.
