I can live with the death of LOS16 very well.

Having your LOS17 on my T325 as well and I love it.

Btw. Firefox has still the same problems while other browsers work.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Valera1978:
firefox issues on t325 or p900?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Only on P900.

After first usage and sync plus installation of some add-ons it doesn't connect any longer.

Same add-ons and sync on T325 without a problem.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] LionheartSilver:
Where can i find BiTGapps?

I did a clean flash, downloaded ARM GAPPS Stock and i'm having errors "updating ok google model service".

Everytime I try to use the mic the tab restarts.

Other than that it looks amazing *w*
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] jmase:
It does connect, pages take time to load but nothing is rendered.

I did get a reboot when using the pen in Squid but after restart I played with Squid for a while with no problem!

BIG thanks to Valera !!!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Don't care about a working firefox any longer as I just saw how new version looks like on other device.

So I'm gonna switch browser anyhow.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] jmase:
Thats why I had to modify the APK so it will not update.

The old firefox (I think) is the best browser for this tablet.

The new firefox is much worse, even for normal phones.

So a fix for whyever firefox does not render the pages would be great :)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] LionheartSilver:
Anyone having troubles using the Mic? Everytime I try to use anything related the tab restarts o.o

Also having "updating OK Google model service" download error.

Which GApps version did you guys install?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] tbjr50:
Thanks [MENTION=2047373]Valera1978[/MENTION] for LOS 17.1 it works good with a few problems but it maybe the apps like Firefox causing reboots and camera otherwise I like this ROM. Thanks again for your great work ???
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Didn't test mic yet as camera not working don't need it then.

Usually I'm using Opengapps pico but that still includes Google TTS what BiTGapps doesn't.

The latter you find in XDA.

Both ARM of course.

Don't have the link right now.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Just noticed pen not recognised at all.

Edit: suddenly it does. Didn't do anything special.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] LionheartSilver:
Tried Clean Install using GApps nano, pico, micro and stock, same problem: "updating OK Google model service".

Tried using BitGapps, same problem :(

Also, mic doesn't work, restarts the tab as soon as you want to use it.

[MENTION=2047373]Valera1978[/MENTION] congrats! it's an amazing ROM *w* everything feels smooth and fast.

Just the Mic Problem, i need it to use Microsoft Teams for calls xD

Congrats!

new update:

1. updated cpu config in dev tree (correct variant cortex-15 config)

2. updated power profile (and here found interesting setting in kernel to speed-up cpu freq up to 2100MHz and seem it's work)

3. updated kernel - net part, I had issues with net on start and made small fix, but now ported all net part from my msm8974 (same 3.4 kernel, but more up to date). firefox still dnw (will continue check), but at least no kernel panic

mic - this is my next priority

Patch boot.img, or rename Magisk.apk to Magisk.zip and install via recovery. Either method is supposed to work, but I have not tried the latest Magisk myself.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] themoneyman:
I have tried both the 9-10 and 12-21 builds and can't get wifi to turn on. Any suggestions?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
I've used the zip method.

Didn't notice any difference to 21.4.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] nsiti:
Not sure what you mean by "turn on" but I can advise that I could not get the wifi to work on 5ghz on my Ubiquiti setup. I had to set up a 2.4 ghz SSID on my access point for the tablet to connect to wifi.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] nsiti:
@Valera1978 my friend, any chance you can get the camera working on this ROM. Otherwise it's great but I need it to zoom and skype :) I'll gladly donate for your time and effort. Thank you for your support of this wonderful old device.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] NeedleGames:
Pretty sure it's the rom. I used an older version of lineage os on this tablet and it used to work fine. Kinda regret updating it now :/

First thanks for the upgrade! has anyone tried using the Xfinity streaming app, it worked with the last one but not with 14.1! also, have the issues sing 17.1 release been fully resolved. primarily camera, xfinity streaming app (very important), youtube and other video, s-pen reboots, 5ghz Wi-Fi issues? Thanks All
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] hesev:
Hello

I have a question:

Each time I try to either flash the newest twrp for my device (using an older version of twrp) I get the following error:

[IMAGE FLASH STARTED]
Image to flash: '/sdcard/Download/twrp.img/' (Not a directory)

This happens no matter from which directory I try to flash it and no matter if from internal or external sdcard. I can move files using the twrp file manager without any problem, so I doubt any file permissions to cause this error.

Reason why I am trying to flash the newest twrp at all, is, that when I try to flash the ROM instead, I get the following error:

Installing zip file '/external_sd/ROM/lineage-17.1-20201221-UNOFFICIAL-v1awifi.zip'
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found
Warning: No file_contexts

Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
Error installing zip file '/external_sd/ROM/lineage-17.1-20201221-UNOFFICIAL-v1awifi.zip'
Updating partition details...
... done

I am pretty sure v1awifi is correct.

Does somebody know what may be the general issue here?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Did you rename the downloaded twrp file?

Mine is named twrp-3.5.0_9-0-v1awifi.img.

Where did you get it from?

v1awifi is correct if it's a SM-P900.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] hesev:
Hi,

Yes, I tried all possible ways... renaming it to twrp.img, using original name, changing the directories from which I am trying to install and so on.

I got mine from the official twrp website's download section and it has the exact same name as yours.

I for sure own the sm-p900 wifi model.

I think this may be due to the ROM that is installed now. I hardly used the tablet since more than 2 years and I somehow remember that I had to change something in a special way for the bootloader version (?) to be able to install the ROM that is installed right now.

For security reasons I just want to install something newer now that I use the tablet every once in a while.

Unfortunaletly I no longer remember the name of the custom rom I am using (I restored it from an old twrp backup). In the device settings it says

Android Version 6.0.1 (which I think, is very insecure now)

Kernel-Version 3.4.113 build@farm #1

Fri Feb 2 19:01:04 MSK 2018

Buildnumber

MMB29K.T800XXU1CQB1 (while the "T800" part is strange for me)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@hesev which TWRP is installed right now?

The buildnumber is really strange as when searching for it I get

Might be best to flash Samsung stock (I'd prefer multiple parts ROM) via Odin and then start all over again.

Btw. mine is still on Lineage14.1 as I don't wanna miss the camera.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] mrgiggle:
Download the ".tar" instead of the .img!
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] hesev:
Yeah, maybe I will give your solution a try. I am used to Linux and MacOS while I do not use Windows frequently. Is Odin Windows only?

The camera is not necessarily needed for me. I just want to use the tablet as an additional device to display tradingview charts but I dislike that Android 6 is totally vulnerable and I do not want to have my email accounts and stuff like that on such an old Android version.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] mrgiggle:
Try this file to flash twrp with Odin
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
No .tar can be flashed via TWRP.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Odin is just for Windows.

You could try using a virtual Windows machine on Linux, but I wouldn't recommend that for flashing.

I don't know any other option than Odin for flashing Stock ROM files.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] mrgiggle:
If you read the entire post instead of rushing to tell me I don't know what I'm talking about you would've known I said with "ODIN"
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@mrgiggle Just telling @hesev as he, you may have read it, isn't familiar with Odin and he wanted to flash via TWRP.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@hesev another thing came to my mind.

Your's has a somewhat undefined state with that T800.....

Imo there's only the way to flash stock Android for P900 as only then you can be sure it has the latest (neccessary for Lineage 14 and above) P900 Bootloader from Samsung.

No answer to my question which TWRP is on it, yet.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Mr Creosote:
There is also Heimdall for Linux, can't remember if I've ever used it on my P900, but I have successfully used it to flash TWRP on other Samsung devices.

There's a GUI for it, but I've always run it through a terminal. The instructions for flashing lineage os on the official site tell you how to use it.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] xdaSEx10:
Does anyone know if gesture navigation can be enabled? Thanks
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] retiredtab:
@Valera1978 , for Firefox not rendering pages, it could be the mali blob has a bug with EGL_KHR_surfaceless_context.

See

https://review.exynos5420.com/c/exynos5420/proprietary_vendor_samsung/+/7567

and

gecko: changeset 812229:86c80f29c2e1a14e58e811aee08e080a8dd43bb7

Note, I don't have the SM-P900, but ran into a similar problem with Firefox not rendering pages on another mali blob platform.

For those that want to try hex editing the mali blob and test with Firefox, it's easy.

1. Boot into TWRP.

2. Choose mount.

3. Choose system so that there is a checkmark next to System.

4. From your terminal, type in

adb pull /system/vendor/lib/egl/libGLES_mali.so

so that it gets copied to your drive.

5. make a copy of the original libGLES_mali.so on your drive.

6. bring up your favourite hex editor and search for EGL_KHR_surfaceless_context. There's only one instance of it.

7. Change the KHR to HAX.

8. Save edited file. The edited file should be the exact same size as the original.

9. Now push the edited file back to tablet.

adb push libGLES_mali.so /system/vendor/lib/egl/libGLES_mali.so

10. Now reboot tablet.

11. See if Firefox works.

Again, I don't have this tablet, but the above works on another mali platform that has the same problem.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] kempsmj:
Hi, I'm new to LineageOS and just installed this version 17.1 on my Galaxy Note Pro P900. I also installed the Gapps micro.

When I want to install my purchased apps in the play store, it shows me that I need to by it again....

If I install it from the web I can install it on my device withour rebuying this.

Is there some way to fix this in the play store? I also had this on another tablet that I updated to LeneageOS yesterday.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@kempsmj different things that helped me on these occasions

1. Check playstore version/update its library

2. delete cache and data of Playstore app

3. Flash an even smaller version of gapps

A question for the group please?

Question = How have people found the battery life after flashing this rom?

Background to the question . . .

I bought a tablet (second hand) a few days ago, and flashed the ROM. All went well. (booted up after clean flash in 1 min 47 seconds). But i'm not getting a great battery life. (ie screen on continously for 4 hours and battery drains from 100% to 40%)

I was assured the battery was replaced a few months ago (but, ... maybe not)

i've not yet rooted to get battery stats

Thanks in advance

PS: Recharging to 100% (from 30%) takes 3.5 hours with 5V, 2.5A charger. Inline ammeter says charging current is 1.9A, depending on the cable
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Mr Creosote:
I'm not actually using this ROM yet, but it's generally pretty normal for battery life to be poor for the first couple of cycles after installing a new ROM. See how it performs after a week.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
Thanks. I keep watching.

I will root so i can get better stats.

BTW Link to canary root from this thread doesnt seem to work

Thanks

PS. Magisk 22.0 works just fine
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] adige57:

Is anyone else having a problem with wifi??
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
No. Works fine for me. What's the issue specifically?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
For me S-Pen works with Squid for about 5 minutes. Then tablet freezes and needs to be forced to restart

Thanks
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pkarza:
It is very strange. I can flash and get the rom 'working' . The wifi networks are shown - and when I try to connect to my wifi network (and this worked with stock and lineage 14 android 7.1) it says that I have to check the password and try again... so I flashed back to lineage 14 and it works.

Why would the networks show but not authenticate??
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
That's a good question. Not enitrely sure. I didnt have that problem, fortunately. But here's some things to try......

I assume you do clean flash for 17.1 and wipe Dalvic/Cache before booting? This can prevent some "weird" behaviour.

I guess you're connecting to 2.4GHz network. I recall reading that 5GHz does not work (i may be corrected on that)

Check that there is not an IP conflict somehere

Toogle aeroplane mode

Try a static IP to see if that changes behaviour

Reboot your router

Hope this helps

Hi. Do you know if the camera is working yet in the latest incarnation of 17.1 build? thank you
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
No the camera does not work.

Native camera app opens but doesn't take a photo.

Open camera shut down my tablet. Screen went black and I couldn't get the tablet to respond for 5 minutes. Forced restart did not work. Nor did trying to force to recovery.

Eventually (5 mins) I got the tablet to restart
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
Camera not working for photos.

S-Pen not working. Tablet freezes or crashes after 10 or so minutes.

Haven't tried Zoom or Skype
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
Looks like great work you have done with the S-Pen fix.

Do you have a compiled ROM for the 900 that incorporates the S-Pen mods that you can share?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] shardsx:
Unfortunately not. I only have enough storage to compile a P905 ROM, and I don't have a P900 to test on either.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
OK. Thanks anyway....
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] yminale:
Can you write down detailed instructions. I would like to try but I never compiled a Lineageos. distro Link will also be appreciated.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pkarza:
Well, I have done all that.... no change. Strange. Not trying to log in to 5 ghz... 2.4 shows but does not authenticate. I have rebooted the router and tried a static IP.

I can log in to a neighbor's network.... but authentication problem on mine - and I can log in with lineage 14 for android 7... but not 10.

weird
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pkarza:

I hope this helps someone else...

I changed wifi settings in the router - I deleted TKIP on WPA/WPA2 and now it is working.

I'd switch immediately.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
Hi

Could you confirm if the pen is still working?

If so could you confirm specs of your device and where you sourced the Rom.

I am trying to track down why the pen works on some devices and not others.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
your camera works? front / back?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] pointbob:
Wait what? Never install TWRP at all on your P900?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
He's just talking about the app.

I've read multiple times that the app is the cause for various problems. Don't understand why they still nudge folks to install it.

TWRP itself is ok.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
Any feedback from the forum regarding who has a working pen, camera etc?

I dont have either (not the end of the world) but i'd like to figure out why it works for some and not others.

ARLO problems:

@Valera1978 : Running latest posting of your ROM. The Arlo app (most current, and even versions dating back to January 2020) are installing, but when executed, the app force closes (it doesn't appear to launch). Attached is the logcat produced. The app runs fine on a Note 3 with Lineage 17.1 and 18.1, so I know it is capable of running, but apparently not on the SM-P900 platform (yet). I tried installing with both Magisk and without Magisk, same results. It was the first app I installed after installing your ROM.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Afaik the pen will on no custom ROM have the same features as on stock for Samsung doesn't give access to drivers.

Marking, drawing, writing should always work.

Doesn't it on yours?

There seems to be an app to buy which someone wrote does offer more features.

I didn't read anywhere about a working camera on a P900 with LOS18 only with 14.1.

Did I miss something?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] grwalker:
Hi

Yes, thanks, i realise the pen does not have the same functionality as stock ROM.

I find that when using the pen as a "pointer", (that is using it instead of my finger), the tablet freezes between 1 and 5 minutes of use.

Also using Squid app, pen works for 1-5 mins before tablet freezes.

On some occasions, the tablet reboots. However this is random.

I've done a clean flash of the rom a few times to see if that makes any difference. It doesnt. . . .

thx
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@grwalker these freezes and reboots made me stick to LOS14.1 by @thompatry.

Camera is working and latest Vanilla version is from 20210413.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] MichelleChristiana92:
Hello!

I have a SM-P900 on stock fully updated Android and been reading through this and the LineageOS 14.1 thread.

It's been a while since I last did anything similar to this (once upon a time had a jailbroken iPhone 4), but as I am using my tablet less and less as it is so old, slow and I have security concerns etc, I have been thinking of flashing one of these ROMs.

Questions:

1. Does the Lineage 17.1 currently have palm rejection? I just wasn't clear from reading through this thread. (I am not too bothered about not having the camera working which is the other main problem right?)

2. Do I understand correctly I will have to fully backup and then format the tablet, before somehow flashing Lineage? (I didn't see it , but ff there's a thread explaining a bit more extensively how to do that could you link me to it? Would be helpful! Or is it really as easy as 1,2,3?)

3. If I install the pico GApps do I understand correctly that I can still get any other Google apps I would like from the Play store?

4. Can I relatively easily switch between lineage builds and am I able to get back to stock android if all fails miserably?

5. Any further comments/tips/warnings/hints that might help? I am reasonable techy, just haven't done this before.

Many thanks! (And sorry for the silly questions)
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
1. Idk as I use 14.1 (need the camera) on my P900 where it works

2. Not necessarily as you can use Odin to flash full stock ROM again.

Backup only if you wanna keep data but they can't be transferred to new ROM anyway.

Recently I've found one but forgot where it was. Will search.

3. Yes

4. Yes with TWRP recovery and going back to stock -> Odin

5. Not yet

Edit to 5 download stock ROM first as a backup before changing anything

Don't install KIES just use Samsung mobile driver
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@MichelleChristiana92 the link to the thread I meant.

Although I've just sent my notes the description here is perhaps better.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Schorschi123:
Hi,

i flashed the lineage 17.1 image to my SM-P900. It is not my first SM-P900. I am running a different one with 14.1.

Flashing was successful and after wipe cache i reboot the device.

I always get the start sequence of lineage. I let it run for 4 hours and nothing happen.

Then i tried to reboot and wipe cache again. After 45min of lineage boot logo, i switch to 14.1

Someone any idea what is wrong on my device or my process?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
Not enough info about your process/device imo.

Already on 5.0.2 bootloader?

Magisk?

Which Gapps if at all?

Same without Gapps?

Same with 2nd download or older version of LOS17?

Which TWRP?

"Format Data" included in wiping before flashing?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] Schorschi123:
Hi,

i solved my issue.

It was my mistake.

I forgot to wipe all:

Select Advanced Wipe > Select the data, system, vendor, cache

Now it booting after 15min on the first boot.

BUT

I see another issue. WLAN is very unstable on my tablet. It requires switch off and on to see all available networks. Automatic connection is enabled but not working. It needs to select the network manually. After ever automatic switch off of the display, this procedure needs to be repeated.

=> current analysis: If i don't finish the android configuration from google the wlan stands stable

Which camera app working with this Android Version?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Android Development] bmwdroid:
@Schorschi123 as to be seen in 1st post and several others no camera.
