Hello Guys,

Is the S Pen working well with Palm rejection ? I bought this for 170 usd but the stock is extremly laggy and my phone has 120hz ...

however I think LOS will do great ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] refaamine:
Palm rejection is ok not like stock but facing few issue with palm rejection is thousand times better than trying to work with stock rom with its radom freezes and force closes without auto saving the progress making me lose hours of work on artflow...

I am using 17.1 by the way not the 18.

Just want to adress a little bug on LOS 17.1 that disable touch screen for few seconds about 3 to 6 sec once you unlock the tablet from sleep then it works without issue until you unlock the tablet again. Stylus works fine during those few seconds but not touch screen

Also I want to point a problem with touch screen on stock. Its like touch screen sensivity is too low or could be my screen protector. Like sometimes some letters wont work on the keyboard or the unlock pattern make me trying to unlock it like ten times but I am not facing this issue with lineage 17.1

I hope I helped you and everyone who is still hesitating to UPGRADE to LOS.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
Thank you for the feedback, but can you please describe in more detail which ROM you are currently on and which keyboard you are using.

I haven't had these problems personally yet, I'm on the latest version from November 24th, 2020, with the opengapps (micro).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] refaamine:
I am using los 17.1 the first release after the 15 october (i think 1 november) with bitgapps and gboard

By the way I am not facing the issue with unlock pattern and keyboard on Los. I am only facing this issue on stock rom wich make Los thousand times better than stock rom

Ah okay....

Had the translator app probably had a few difficulties 😅🙈👍
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Mayex:
I need opinion if this Rom is working well? I want to buy Tab S6 lite but I hate Samsung rom, and I'd buy this device only if custom rom is working well, i like lineage os. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] acupunk:
This ROM works great. Getting it installed initially took some acrobatics. I found that google services were wacky until I changed my device fingerprint to galaxy s20 ultra and I could pass safetynet.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
This ROM feels snappier than stock and feels very fluid. Thanks @Linux4 🙏

Currently one issue that I'm facing is that my contacts from my Google contacts are not showing up. Neither in the stock Contacts app nor in the Google Contacts app. In fact Google one asks me to add Google account again and then it gives me an error saying this account is already logged into the device. Maybe some contacts provider issue?

Also text selection with long press using the S pen doesn't work for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
This is a Google-specific problem, take a look at the app's settings and approve it.

Had the same problem with Chrome 😀
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
Can you help point out which app settings? I checked the Phone app and it had the same issue which I mentioned earlier. I checked the sync settings for Google account and I could see that sync is enabled for "People and details" option. Am I missing anything else?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
Yes, each app must give it permission: settings -> Apps-->"yourapp"-> permissions
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
Woah! That worked. I had to give all permissions to Google Play Services. That did the trick. Thanks man!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
GPU frequencies seem to be incorrectly shown in Franco Kernel Manager
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
This is not a issue with the ROM (so this is the wrong place for reporting this), but the values are actually correct just that the unit should be KHz and not MHz.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] acupunk:
Nevermind, solution was posted and my browser had not refreshed. Thanks everyone!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
I have uploaded new builds, as Lineage is now based on the new AOSP feature drop it's now 18.1
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
Thanks man! Can we dirty flash it on top of Lineage 18.0 with just dalvik/cache cleanup? Our does it require a full wipe?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
Dirty flashing should work.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
@Linux4 dirty flash didn't work. Stuck in a boot loop now.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
This looks like a issue with gapps, did you flash them again after updating lineage?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
Ahh, nopes. I didn't.

Anyway, I performed a factory reset now. It booted after that.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
Can someone confirm if location is working correctly with 18.1? With Gapps?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
Yes, it works for me, but I have installed the open gapps and maps app crasht permanent (I tested the web version) , I will take care of it tomorrow.

However, it worked for me already at 17.1/18.0/18.1, because the AR games worked with GPS. Have you given maps permission for the site under 18.0??
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] tejasjadhav:
Fixed it. It was an issue with Google Play Services again. The current location permission was "Only while using the app" instead of "Always". Additionally, you can't set it from settings page either. Running the following commands from ADB shell did the trick,

pm grant com.google.android.gms android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
pm grant com.google.android.gms android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
Okay, I'll test afterwards, but you always have to keep in mind with the gapps that they are still in the testing phase for Android R.

All these problems that she and I have have nothing to do with lineage, but are all bugs of opengapps/bitgapps/nikgapps etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] halon:
flashed latest version and rebooted. Linage setup then rebooted to linage recovery and flash gapps from link. Tried to reboot and nothing. Cannot get to recovery or Download. Pressing Power and Volume Up and down gets the Unlock warning then the not running Samsung software warning it then shuts down. Any ideas what to do next?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
Yes, please go into download mode and flash twrp again, then boot into the twrp and flash everything together.(LINEAGEOS18.1 and the gapps)

In this update they all had to flash together without reboot,

I hope for you that this helps

The usb-c cable is in a PC that is on? You've downped and pushed volume up and down at the same time?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] halon:
Yes
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] halon:
The only action that gets a response is Power + Volume Down

That's the standard away, if nothing else goes, I can't help them any more.

Is there any way to enable or add screen casting?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] BankruptGreek:
hey, I am having an issue trying to get through the initial set up, after I disable ok Google it takes me back to google services check boxes and when I accept to ok Google again
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
Yes this is a gapps problem, I also have on my OnePlus 7 (Stock and LineageOS 17.1 )
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] YehoshuaLee:
Great Rom. everything is great so far. Thank you for your work!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] RealCaracas:
Hello, does this ROM allows HD playback in Netflix ( or any other) out of the box?. If not, is there a work around rooting it?

Also, is dolby atmos avaliable? If not, is there a work around?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] acupunk:
Netflix and rooting have been discussed above. I find the native sound tinny and prone to distortion at low/moderate volumes. Ainur magisk module fixed it for me. No need for atmos.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] eluminx:
Is it safe to dirty-flash this on top of the Nov 24 version?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
That *should* work, but you should still backup your data as always
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] eluminx:
For some reason i'm getting errors when i try to backup with TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
See the first post, /data is encrypted by default on this ROM, you'll need to back up your data in another way.

Maybe some backup app working with root like https://f-droid.org/de/packages/com.machiav3lli.backup/

That would actually be a cleaner way of backup and restore than restoring everything in /data (which will likely cause the same issues like after dirty-flashing anyways)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] eluminx:
Thank you for the quick reply. I had a bad experience with that app coming from 17.1 to 18. About 70% of the apps i had did not restore and had to install from scratch. Again, thank you for the help, i'm hoping that the new update will fix my BT issues but having to manually install most of the apps is time consuming.

Here goes nothing 🤞
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] asciix:
Thank you for this awesome ROM. It's unfortunate that miracast isn't working.

Has anyone been able to screen record internal audio (no mic) with this rom? I've tried countless apps and methods (magisk module), but the apps always just crash as soon as the recording starts with internal audio.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
Did you try Android 11's integrated screenrecorder yet? You can switch between mic and internal audio there
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] asciix:
Yes I have. The integrated screen recorder will just crash without recording anything when internal audio is selected. Mic+Internal and Mic work fine. I have also tried the official lineage 17.1 and the result is the same using various apps + magisk.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Yaranaika:
Thanks for this! Much smoother than stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Nervusrek:
The latest 2021 gta4xlwifi update has broken lockscreen pin causing a crash when trying to set a 4 digit pin during setup and trying to clear chrome data causes settings to crash, everything else seems fine though.

Fresh install BTW not ota (updater in settings doesn't work)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] f3d0r:
I wanted to activate PIN as "screen lock" method but to my surprise it's not available as an option.

Under "Settings-> Security -> Screen Lock" only "None" and "Swipe" are offered. Does anyone know what's going on? I did not expect to see fingerprint but PIN or Password should be there....

Thank you for your efforts in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
Both of these were likely caused by gapps, however it seems to be fixed when using opengapps nano package from January 10th 2021 on the build I uploaded today.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] julesism:
Man... I was having issues like tejasjadhav was having a few posts back. Chrome would not sign in, drive would not open. I was pulling my heckin hair out until I used the 0110 nano opengapps. Having a much better time now. Do not try the 0116 opengapps.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
If there were also some problems with opengappps, but this is not due to the system, but to the opengapps, I have now switched to bitgapps, which run well (except for drive)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] f3d0r:
I have NOT installed GApps on my device as I am grateful for ROM options without Google closed source binaries. Or do you mean not installing gapps is causing this?

I will try your latest build anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] f3d0r:
Flashing your release 20210116 fixed the issue with the MISSING SCREEN LOCK OPTIONS. As gapps was not installed I don't think this issue is related to gapps.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Aelian:
Hey,

I'm having trouble with Magisk. When enabling magisk hide, apps will not open and magisk manager freezes, this is on magisk's latest release.

I had the problem using both lineageos versions 17 and 18, flashed with lineage recovery and following the guide to the letter.

Anyone experience something similar ?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mehehe333:
I have the same issue on lineage 18.1 as well.

I had to reboot to open magisk again and disable magisk hide.

Netflix works but only in L3 (SD), not L1 (Highest vid quality)

Another issue I found is that it can't connect to hidden networks.

Anybody can test this?

Edit: How dumb of me, there was an advanced setting in adding networks to specify if it is hidden 😅

What is your--
LineageOS version: lineage-18.1-20210123
LineageOS Download url: https://github.com/Linux4/lineage_OTA/releases
Gapps version: Didn't flash any

Did you--
wipe: yes
restore with titanium backup: no
reboot after having the issue: yes

Are you using--
a task killer: no
a non-stock kernel: no
other modifications: magisk

I only used lineage recovery and didn't bother with twrp.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
First of all, yes, this is a magisk problem, but after the first start it goes, have this on my mobile phone of one plus with OOS11 as well.

Second, netflix works at level 3 since they unlocked the bootliader, this is normal on Samsung devices (there's an exception, I think)

At number three I have to test it myself afterwards, so Unfortunately I can't say anything.

Edit: have tried it, with me it connects to a hidden network (WPA2/WPA3)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Crashdown1994:
Hey there,

first of all: thank you very much for all your work, this is increadible.

Second: I'm in desperate need for some advice. I followed the instructions on the lineageos-page ( here ) but silly me forgot to enable USB debugging before flashing lineage recovery. Now the recovery works, but I cannot flash lineageos. The error says, that no device could be found. However, the tablet also does not boot back to system, therefore I am unable to enable USB debugging. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed from here that does not involve me beating my head through the wall for my stupidity?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] mu1989:
Did you perform a factory reset/wipe

You must use either adb sideload or a micro sd card for flashing under apply Update
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Crashdown1994:
Yes, I did perform a factory reset before trying to flash lineageos. I think the problem is, that I did not enable USB Debugging and therefore adb is unable to sideload the ROM, but for some reason that is beyond me, I cannot reboot to system to enable the USB Debugging.

EDIT: Just out of desparation, I did the factory reset again and tried to flash again. Suddenly, it worked! Thank you so much! Is there any possibility to support your work financially, e.g. via PayPal?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
adb (and sideload) in recovery is in no way related to USB debugging setting in system's settings, both can be enabled in recovery, but I guess you already know how to do that now.

Thanks for considering a donation, I have a paypal donation link set in my xda profile.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Mr.Deviant:
I am loving my Samsung Galaxy tab S6 lite with LineageOS 18.1 but, can not get Samsung Notes to work. I was able to install with an APK but the app won't work. Has anybody had any luck getting this to work?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] flitzjoy:
Just to be grateful for @Linux4 . Just installed, everything gone well.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] renr29:
make debloat tut pls
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] ELOIAS:
The way I installed it was:

1. Go to download mode (power of and hold volume up + down)

2. Install Odin and select AP, select the TWRP file, uncheck "reboot system" under options

3. Boot directly in recovery, should now be TWRP (hold power up + power)

Notice: in the current TWRP version for this device ADB sideload doesn't work. You can adb push your zip to your ad card and then Install from TWRP. However the internal storage is encrypted (you can see folders with strange, long names so you need the SD card)

I cept getting errors with this install and believe I tried everything.

4. Download the lineage recovery image and push it to your ad card.

5. Install the image using TWRP

6. Boot directly into recovery in TWRP menu

Notice: Lineage Os should pop up. For my device fastboot didn't load even with the stock rom, keep this in mind

7. ADB sideload lineage os and if you want Google apps gapps.

Finally done!! Took me 5 days to figure out, I try to answer all questions, don't be shy. I hope it works for you!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] DAE1964:
Installed yesterday update. Running smoothly.

Thanks for your great work.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] flitzjoy:
The build in updater worked fine. Question:there is a way to keep magisk after updating?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
Sorry, you'll have to sideload magisk again after every OTA, it's addon.d doesn't work with FBE encrypted /data.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Iceman66:
Another way: Put magisk.zip on SD-card and flash it as an update with Lineage recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] iggydrake:
Yikes, I installed the latest update when it asked, and it, upon success with no errors resulted in the total wipe of the tablet. Was thankfully able to get back to stock. Think I'm going to pass on ever using lineageOS again after that.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
That's why the instructions tell you to use lineage recovery ...

It's TWRP's fault, not Lineage's.

I guess there's no other way than fully taking down TWRP downloads for stopping people from using TWRP on official 17.1 and 18.1 (it initially worked on my unofficial 17.1 because that didn't have FBE enabled, that's the only reason why there's TWRP at all)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] yaw hide:
Howdy,

Something weird is going on.

I am following https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/gta4xlwifi/install to install lineage recovery but used your .img. I can get into download mode fine, i can run the heimdall commend to flash the recovery fine. But the weird thing is when I hold down power and volume down, it doesnt actually shutdown. it seems to do a reboot. I tried a bunch of times to immediately get into recovery but it seems to ignore my power + volume up. Anyway, it shows the warning screen but now also says "the tablet is not running samsungs official software" which I assume it because i flashed lineage recovery.

but now the scary (to me) part, when i press "power key to continue"... it does nothing. It doesnt even boot. I can get back into download mode by holding power + vol down and then volume up + down. I can reflash lineage recovery (even tried flashing 17.1) but i cannot seem to get into recovery mode. it always boots and then shows that warning screen...and freezes.

any idea how to fix this? either get into recovery mode OR get my tablet to boot if i press the power key?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Linux4:
Which model and firmware version are you on?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] yaw hide:
you answered me in telegram but i was on android 11. i will try to flash the stock android 10 rom from dec 16th 2020
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Bracher:
I have a problem: Galaxy Tab S6 Lite WiFi still on stock firmware:

- I finaly managed to open the bootloader it's outgreyed now

- I used your image recovery in a tar archive and flashed it with Odin, Odin's message: success

- but I'm not able to boot in recovery - don't matter if I use power key with power up or power down - I only get the warning message and afterwards it boots in the normal Samsung system

- I even flashed the recovery several times no success, to be sure....
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] A2L5E0X1:
you can boot the recovery by holding VOLUP + POWER pressed. Also, after you have flashed the recovery you should boot into it after it rebooted from download mode or disable auto-reboot in odin and reboot to recovery yourself, because stock rom could overwrite the recovery with stock's one.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Bracher:
Sorry, Sorry!! I made a mistake, perhaps I'm getting to old or the stress with unlocking the Bootloader (till I realised that in Bootloader Modus I have to press volume down instead of up...) so I did't realise in time that the Samsung update I accepted was in fact an Update into Android 11, luckily I didn't brick my tablet in trying to flash a LOS Recovery for LOS 17.1 on a Stock Rom 11. So I'll go back to Stock ROM 10 and try ones more with LOS Recovery 17.1. Sorry for bother you.

But may I ask two questions anyway? If I succeed I'll have to flash Magisk after every update, that's fine I'll do that on my Smartphone as well and I'll store the Magisk file on the external SD-Card.

- But what is the order to flash first LOS than LOS Recovery and finally Magisk? And can I do that in LOS Recovery as in TRWP?

- And what is with the Magisk Modules will they survive thanks Magisk or do I have to flash them every time as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] A2L5E0X1:
Yeah you flash recovery then you flash the ROM and after that magisk. Works fine in LineageOS Recovery. When you flash magisk you just need to confirm that you want to flash it anyways (bc of signature check). And the modules will survive bc they are in /data/adb/modules.
