Great vid, just seen it, at the end was sad you are getting a bit disheartened by negative people's comments on your vids, ignore them and do it for the positive folk that appreciate your vids.

I always find it staggering when I see some roms have had 5 thousand plus downloads and there are only 1% of them that come to the forums and drop a thank you message to the devs. Such has human nature, it would seem they think they are entitled to all this hard work without even giving some common courtesy back, I mean they spend the time and small amount of hassle to install roms but they don't have 30 seconds to say thank you. No wonder you feel pissed off sometimes. Who can blame you.

I say keep making rom instal videos for those of us that do like them as long as you also are getting at least some enjoyment from it which is the most important factor.

All the best buddy, :)

Nice job, very clean and stable rom after a TWRP update and a squeaky clean install.

Thanks bro , I will but i,m also busy with something else now that is taking off and give allot of inspiration , I did not say that I got bad comments , not at all , but little comments on uploads and that made me decide to maybe better shut off the whole comment section , that's what i said , and that's demotivating me and then I go look for other things to do :) Ill do a poll tonight !

Any luck on headphone jack??? Loving your los18 rom, but love to use los19 if headphone jack works. Thanks again!

Finally I think I found which thing I should look into to fix the camera and the remaining audio things including Bluetooth audio, headphone jack and the audio when screen recording.

Currently I managed to fix the camera working, which comes with some bugs yet but we can use it.

But I couldn't fix the audio yet. I found the root cause but don't know how to fix that.

So, the new one will come and I think it is not so far. If I can't fix the audio for a few days, then I will upload the new release including the working camera. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Stogie87:
Amazing News! So maybe the rom will switch to beta stage soon :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] vonschau:
This are great news. I would test the beta version right away. Keep up your amazing work. 😀😉
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
Hello all,

After numerous tries, I could fix the camera and the Bluetooth/Headphone jack audio working.

The camera is back, but still has some bugs, unfortunately.

First, we can't use the default camera app, Camera2. It takes a shot but the result is cracked. But we can use a third party app like OpenCamera.

And, there is something weird on the Torch. After using the camera with the flashlight, sometimes the Torch tile on the quick settings is broken, it just said "camera in use". But we still can use the camera.

Lastly, sometimes the camera doesn't work at all after rebooting. Fortunately, it is easily fixed by rebooting again. I don't know why it is well.

Now our audio HAL is built from the source. Previously, we were using audio HAL version 4.0 which is for Android 9 but now we're using version 6.0 which is for Android 11. I can move on to version 7.0, yeah, which is for Android 12, but from this version the configurations have to be modified in many ways so I just pended it.

I had to supplement some audio configurations because of the compatibility of each version, maybe some audio scenarios were broken compared to our LineageOS 18.1. But I confirmed for most used scenarios like the quad-speaker, Bluetooth audio, headphone jack, and wireless display audio, so in most cases it will work well.

I think, we can deprecate our LineageOS 18.1 now because our LOS 19.1 has no fewer features than LOS 18.1. :)

Hi awesometic thanks a lot all works fine for me. Google play needed a few reboots. Camera is working, Audio is fine as well. Starting recovery works only with odin
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bmwdroid:
@Awesometic thx again.

Great work.

Just flashed it plus FlameGApps + Magisk onto previous version.

(wiped only sytem+caches before)

Magisk of course needed to patch boot.img again.

All other apps, settings and Data survived.

Booting into recovery with pwr button works.

OpenCamera as well.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
I found a way to hide the bottom taskbar.

LOS team implemented this feature a month ago, but their patch doesn't consider the old devices which has the hardware buttons. So, it should be an option in the "Settings - Buttons" menu, but it only shows up for us when enabling the soft navigation bar.

I updated the Special Notes. Here's the instruction for that.

You can hide the bottom Taskbar. This is the workaround.

1. Go to "System -> Buttons" and check "Enable on-screen nav bar" to enable soft nav bar temporarily
2. Go back using navigation bar and go to the "Buttons" menu again
3. Then we can see the "Enable taskbar" option that we couldn't see before. Disable that option.
4. And disable "Enable on-screen nav bar" option again to use the hardware buttons back.

OK, I got lineage-19.1-20220611-UNOFFICIAL-gts3lwifi.zip working on my SM-320 with a modified version of FlameGApps-12.1-basic-arm64-20220612.zip, and have the two column display in settings working too (@pooyab, you may be interested in this, because I'm hoping it solves the problem you raised before!)

The Camera is working perfect with the default camera app, but I have the same issue with the camera in Zoom as I had in the LineageOS 18.1 version at https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-unoffic...-18-1-for-galaxy-tab-s3.4293069/post-86517463, with a green bar being displayed on the left of the screen and the colour being distorted on the rest of the screen.

I also have the same same issue with transferring files I referenced at https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-unoffic...-19-1-for-galaxy-tab-s3.4418855/post-86778643, with all the USB options in the top pulldown menu being disabled. The workaround referenced in that post still works.

To make this work with FlameGApps-12.1-basic-arm64-20220612.zip with two column display working, I did the following:

1. Delete the following files from the ZIP file:

tar_gapps/AndroidMigrate.tar.xz

tar_gapps/GoogleBackupTransport.tar.xz

tar_gapps/GoogleRestore.tar.xz

tar_gapps/SetupWizard.tar.xz

2. Replace installer.sh in the ZIP file with the version at https://ufile.io/6rqcwk07 (do compare them first to see what's changed - this is the same installer.sh as was used by the modifed version of FlameGApps referenced by Awesometic in the first alpha). The link to this file will expire on July 13th 2022. Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can post the file in a longer lived location?

3. Wipe the device and clean flash both LineageOS and FlameGApps on a clean install WITHOUT doing a reboot between them.

EDITS: Added links to my previous posts about issues and updated the link to installer.sh because I was having trouble attaching the file.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Borbelli:
I also noticed the headphone jack output is noticably quieter. I've been using a USB-C DAC to get around the issue for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
Thank you for the report. I will increase headphone volume in the next update.

Is USB-C DAC working? I didn't know that :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] jtrakx:
Thank you very much Awesometic for this very nice and stable ROM. I am so delighted to know from you that updates will be coming soon. Oh your so great!

I just observe that using headphone jack and turning off the Dolby ATMOS while a music player is running (e.g spotify, deezer, etc.) will significantly decrease the volume. Then turning it (Dolby) back on while the music player is still running will not restore to lost sound volume. I just set the Dolby ATMOS permanently to auto and not touching it so as not to affect the music volume. BTW my workaround is to install the AML + VIPER4Android. The sound volume and quality becomes very acceptable.

I would also like to mention the AOSP keyboard bug. When the theme is set to Material You, the AOSP keyboard will not display properly the number pad. This does not happen when other theme is selected. I hope this will be addressed in the coming update.

Thanks again to you!

Anyway to implement Monet settings in wallpaper within the next couple updates, or are those settings closed sourced to pixel?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] MachineMasher:
That's really strange. The two column display in settings just happened for me any time I flashed LineageOS and FlameGApps without a reboot in between. I didn't have to do anything special to enable it.

When I installed WITH a reboot in between, the two column display didn't work.

So if you used the same version of FlameGApps as I mentioned and you didn't reboot between LineageOS and FlameGApps, I have no idea why you wouldn't get two column display. :(

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Malykont:
Thanks for all responses. I flashed 6/11 on top of the previous Alpha release without formatting everything, looks like that's what I'll do when the next update comes out. I'll check the suggested workaround to get the fingerprint scanner working again in the meanwhile.

The volume was low on the Alpha as well though. It is not like there is no sound coming out from the thing, just that on most devices (Pixel 3XL, laptops, etc.) I don't have to go above 1/3 volume to get a reasonable noise levels out.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bmwdroid:
@Awesometic fyi: my T825 had no more freezes or necessity to force reboot since I didn't turn off WiFi any longer. Until then sometimes more than trice a day.

Today I've noticed that headphone jack output is significantly lower than speaker or USB output.

The last two can be loud enough.

Headphones volume via jack is on max setting less than half as loud like it's on USB (same headphone).

Do you know which parameter in mixer_paths_tasha.xml I have to change to pump up jack loudness?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
Oh, thank you for researching.

It seems there are two types of "plus" memory.

1. ZRAM

2. RAM Plus

First of all, fortunately, I have already enabled ZRAM for our device.

I merged essential/tweak patches from LOS's kernel and it uses OnePlus 3 script when it comes to enabling ZRAM at the boot time. Consequently, it spaces 2 GB for the ZRAM.

And the RAM Plus, it seems it is only supported when the original firmware supports it in advance. The OTA firmware support implies that the kernel also has the feature for that.

So I think it is very hard to port that feature to ours.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
I have found which parameter controls the headphone volume and applied a new patch to my device tree.

And I also created some patches, after finishing the test I will release the new version.

I think it'd be great if will have a July 2022 security patch.

Hi awesometic. Thank you again for your great effort.

Been using this rom since last release. Idle battery drain, overall performance regarding everyday tasks are unbelievably better than the official rom.

I just have a question, i constantly get errors for QTI Power HAL and WIFI Vendor HAL errors in logcat. Do you know anything about this or have i done something wrong?

-Plus while using the stylus in apps like xodo or even testing drawing apps with touch (for testing) some wierd unexpectable glitches and lags happen when device resources seem not to be the bottleneck. Is it related to GPU rendering of these vectors and stuff or something else wrong ? Have you encountered this using apps like xodo?

-if it's just a matter of inclusion, can we have Wireguard kernel module?

One other request, can you include AOSPA tweaks to the rom in the future? I don't know much about it but evidently it's very smooth and performs great on mediocre snapdragon SoCs. I can attest to that with a very alpha build on my old xiaomi k20 pro.

Thank you again so much for resurrecting this device

Wish you all the best 🌹
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Zatoichi.88:
You are right there personally I don't even notice much difference enabling zRAM to tell if is activated. Can you share how to disable it?

Actually if we can ''find a solution for RAM Plus'', it ll work.

Otherwise zRAM doesn't make any sense.

If we are looking for more ram space maybe we should use Kernel samepage merging (KSM) if our kernel supports, it should be in performance memory management.

As you know with Android, there is no swap partition, and therefore brings zRAM also no performance boost.

The only thing that brings zRAM is more ram. Compressed by the enlarged so to speak of the available memory. That's on devices with little RAM <512mb also pretty useful. After you activate the zRAM also has two disadvantages. The encoding and decoding using CPU time, which in turn has higher power consumption. Despite its name, zRAM has little to with RAM except that it uses it. zRAM is a block device in ram which can be used only for swap purposes. It acts as a swap file however is not on disk but in ram where the blocks are compressed, so not using the size they would use on uncompressed devices, like a disk.

Roughly one can say (For devices with more than 1gb ram): Without zRAM: + CPU Performance | + Battery | RAM

With zRAM: CPU Performance |-Battery | + RAM

Check whether you can zRAM runs in the terminal with free or cat/proc/meminfo

... I don't know.... I use the excellent latest version and bar aside, everything works wonderfully..... until I decide to leave the tablet in idle: reboot continue! If, on the other hand, I turn it off every time and the next time I use it again, it works regularly!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
Thank you :)

- Yeah for me those messages appear in my logcat too. Fortunately, it may imply there are some features that cannot be activated but it seems not harmful.

- I don't have experience with Xodo, I will try and will look into why it happens.

- I have merged Wireguard driver and its improvement patches from LineageOS kernel. It should work well.

- AOSPA tweaks, yeah I can apply them. Can you tell me a little about the patches AOSPA provides?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
Great analytics 😮

I agree with you. But I think we need zRAM anyway because recent resources from the various applications are too large. 😅 So I enabled zRAM even though it consumes more battery and reduces its performance slightly.

But yeah, we still can disable zRAM. You have to 'root' the device, then you can disable zRAM using a kernel auditor app.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
The new version is uploaded.

With this version, I have added support for Sony DualShock 4 gamepad. I confirmed it's working, simply using the touchpad on it and the buttons and it is quite interesting.

And I increased the headphone jack volume too. I think now it gets enough to listen to something but I need feedback from the users.

Check out changelogs, and enjoy the new ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bmwdroid:
@Awesometic thx very much.

Kind of clean (wiped all but Data) installed flashing ROM, Gapps+Magisk.

Headphones loudness better but could imo still be increased compared to LOS18.1 on I9195.

Coffee is on its way (didn't know paypal ads 20% 😡).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
Thank you :)

How much do you think about the headphone jack volume? Increasing about 10% could be enough?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bmwdroid:
Actually I think quite a bit more might be even better.

When I compare (listening via Radiodroid to the same station) the 2 scales I'd say that half on I9195 is just near max on T825.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Awesometic:
Then I will increase it by about 10% more in the next release.

How about the stock firmware? I know it is hard to compare unless we have two of the same tablets, but comparing to the other device is not proper because they probably have different DAC inside each other so that the output volume can be different. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bmwdroid:
You're right but I can't remember what it was like.

When I find time enough I might flash debloated stock by rorymc928 to find out.

Don't want to go back to real stock as it's always been a hassle to get to OEM unlock option.
