If you read my post #143, it said to run the brightness fix right after formatting the data partition. That is when the data partition is unencrypted. As soon as you boot the LOS ROM, it gets encrypted again. As to USB file transfer, it is a known bug. I just use Wifi Explorer to transfer files. There are several apps in Play Store to use wifi or bluetooth to transfer files.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] loadedmodg:
Anybody else having wifi issues after installing this ROM? I tried the previous version of LineageOS posted before and then reverted to factory stock, then tried this one. Both times when I get into Lineage I don't have wifi. I get "Connect to Wi-Fi" and it continually searches for wifi. I go to settings and turn wifi to the "ON" position, and it turns itself off after 5-6 seconds.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] karton555:
same here

is there any fix for us?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] agreenbhm:
For those of you having WiFi problems, what is the CSC of your device and where are you located? Wondering if the issue is related to WiFi configs since I built the ROM from US stock (XAR).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] karton555:
EU, France
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] agreenbhm:
I recommend you try flashing stock (and confirming WiFi works), and then install the vbmeta disabler and then TWRP. After that, see if you can install a GSI using the "Updates" instructions from the OP. That should leave everything region-specific intact, hopefully resolving the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] karton555:
this is what I actually did and on stock wifi works fine
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] agreenbhm:
Just to be clear, you installed a GSI in TWRP without installing the ROM from OP with ODIN at any point after flashing stock?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] karton555:
i tried first beta over month ago, and wifi didn't work so i went full stock through odin including stock recovery and locking bootloader.

So wifi worked in stock.

Now i tried to install beta 2 with your instructions.

Everything went just fine except wifi and brightness (i saw there is a fix) but don't see any fix for wifi :c
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] agreenbhm:
It sounds like you installed the ROM from OP. Please follow the instructions I mentioned about going back to stock and then installing TWRP and GSI. Lineage Beta 2 from the OP includes more then just the GSI and I suspect that is what's breaking WiFi on international variants.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Mister Monday:
so only US sm-t500 will work with this rom?

edit: cant i use this guide to install GSI?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] OpenSource Ghost:
I assume there is no way to re-lock the bootloader with this (or any other) custom ROM and internal memory encryption doesn't work either?

Why are both (re-locked bootloader and memory encryption) possible on Pixel devices with Lineage OS, but not Samsung devices?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] OpenSource Ghost:
Has anyone tested MAC randomization with this ROM? MAC randomization doesn't work with the latest official ROM. It resets back to "Tablet MAC" no matter what settings one selects.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] loadedmodg:
I'm in the US, device purchased in the US.

I'm using the US version of the tablet, purchased in the US, and using the XAR (US) version. I'll probably just revert to stock and stick with it. Would love to use Lineage but understand it's not your problem to fix it :)

Gets pretty sluggish at times, seems to have pretty bad memory management
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
By "Gets pretty sluggish", do you mean the tablet or the ROM? And at what times, doing what and compared to what?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mercurytoxic:
This rom compared to stock. When opening more than one app, for example google maps, and trying to switch to another app, or open settings. Checked top in shell and kswapd was high on CPU. Close everything and becomes usable again. Seems it's not managing memory well, as in not closing apps when it's low on memory.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mystifuzz:
That is true, it is the main reason I'm on stock at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
I installed this ROM just to see if I could get it running. I don't think the even the dev is using it for daily use but rather just to get things started to bring LOS 19 to the tablet. I'm running the Ultimate R ROM for daily use and it appears quite snappy. I opened Maps and Setting on it and it switches between them without any delay.

edit: One thing I dislike about both stock and LOS 19 is encryption. I don't care how fast the algorithm is, it still takes time to encrypt and decrypt and I have no need at all to hide anything on my tablets. I'm an 83 yr old widower, not some govt spy. Also, TWRP doesn't seem to be able to backup and restore encrypted data partitions, so I can't switch back and forth between ROMs that encrypt.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
BTW, have you tried doing as the dev suggested and updated the ROM with the latest GSI?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] utkuilmaz:
edit : don't mind me
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Kudalufi:
Is there a version without gapps?

Edit: And if not, does anyone have a suggestion for a de-googled rom for this device?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
Just wipe the system, data and cache and then flash the GSI via TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Kudalufi:
Thanks. I'm climbing the learning curve still, buy I think I've got this.

Though I have to say, it is beyond me why anyone would bother with LOS and then want to add Google back in. It's like getting all the asbestos out of your walls then buying asbestos snow to play in because you miss the mesothelioma that much.

I see on Andy Yan's download page that vanilla LOS GSIs are more downloaded than gapps GSIs by a factor of 5:1. Maybe @agreenbhm would consider making this a vanilla image and make the vocal gapps minority go the extra route of having to flash the gapps GSI to get their asbestos back.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] agreenbhm:
Just install a GSI without Gapps from that page using the update instructions in OP. I'm not making multiple releases when you can DIY.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] lewmur:
I think that most people who download the vanilla LOS will still install some form of gapps. I just that you get to choose what level of gapps you want. I usually install the nano gapps. I want the PlayStore but that's about all.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Kudalufi:
Fair enough. I was mostly being a little wise ass, perhaps my brand of sarcasm didn't translate.

VBMeta to UserData slot, all the rest to AP, correct?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] mystifuzz:
Yes, you can flash VBMeta (userdata) and TWRP (ap) at the same time, btw.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Kudalufi:
Thanks to all it worked a treat. In my ADD and haste I missed the final "wipe data" at the end of step 6 and got caught in a TWRP boot loop that wouldn't end with any amount of "exit_twrp". Works a treat, though, and my tablet is happily almost totally de-googled.

EDIT: Spoke too soon. Brightness fix woudn't apply. Couldn't mount /system_root, dmesg reports it can't be mounted rw because of unsupported optional features in the /dev/block/dm-0 filesystem.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series ROMs, Kernels, Recover] Mister Monday:
Did you flash the Vndklite variant? because you cant fix the brightness if you dont have it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] darianmihalcea:
Hi guys i've searched all over the net for a solution and i am starting to think that there is none.

I've bought a Samsung Fold3 5g SM-F926U1 and i think it is an US model. I live in Romania and i can't get 5g signal, only LTE. Tried everything that is normal, reset settings, update internet profile, switched on and off, selected 5G auto and/or GLOBAL.

Nothing works. Do you have any solution? Flash a different rom on it or something?

The phone is single sim, in Romania they sell the dual sim version

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Flavio:
The F926U supports these 5G bands:

SA/NSA/Sub6/mmWave (2, 5, 25, 41, 66, 71, 260, 261)

What 5G bands does your provider use?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Deleted member 1755208:
u will not get 5g if its US phone and u live in europe

I had phone imported to me from US in england and i only got 4g

so i sold it
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] darianmihalcea:
I have no clue. I've been searching but there is not much information and the little that is i dont understand as it says only mhz not specific bands.

Thanks for the tip. I will probably do the same if there is no other way.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] TheNewGuy92:
it is possible the software installed on it is not playing nice with the carrier in your region.

for example. In the US, each carrier decides which version of SW update to release to their customer, but if a user brings their own device that was with another carrier hence has a different software version than what is being used for the new carrier... the phone tends to have issues or not be able to update and such.

Other possibility is that the region you are in doesn't use the band that the phone supports (but this might be less likely in my opinion, but I'm no professional nor do I have experience with overseas inter-usability so I may be wrong).

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foo:
It now happened for the third time: The phone is up and running but when an incoming call is received it does not ring at all and the microphone + speaker is also not working (muted) - basically there is no audio at all though you can take and end the call.

Once the phone is in this state alarms and sound notifications are no longer working as well, after a soft reset everything was fine again.

I wonder if I'm the only user who has experienced this kind of issue.

It seems this problem is not a common problem, as I do not read any other posts regarding this issue in the Xperia section. Though I found a thread in the Diamond section that exactly describes my problem.

As HTC stated the problem is related to a hardware issue, I returned mine now. :( I'm lucky that Amazon.de just returned me the money (completely) so I can buy another one in the next days.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karthu:
It seems I am having this problem with my X1i. I am in the US and the Sony Ericsson support centre in the UK is telling me that I would have to pay for shipping to and from the UK Sony Repair centre.

The following web page suggests I am eligible for international support and repairs, but I called the US Sony Ericsson line and they told me that since the X1 was not released here yet, that I would not be able to receive support in the US for the X1 (either for getting it repaired or a replacement unit).

http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...endedserviceoffertailoredforx1/x1?cc=gb&lc=en

I would send it back to superetrader.co.uk and get a replacement that way, but they do not have any in stock and given delays in shipments in the UK I am hesitant to send it back and wait for new stock.

I am going to try going into a Sony Style store sometime this week and show them my "Travelers service" card and see if they can get it fixed here. Does anyone have any other suggestions I might try?

bluetooth problem with carkit and audio off

I folks,

i do also have the same problem. I have a SE BT car kit HCB 300 and it is just annoying, that it does not work proper. Sometimes BT works, sometimes not, sometimes i have to restart the phone, sometimes ... just annoying.

A lot of times Xperia recognizes the 300, then i am calling somebody, phone is giving signal to the 300, but after a few seconds, audio is off again.

After that audio is not working anymore.

Could it be, that your problems are also caused by the known BT problem?

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x1inside:
Exactly same problem

Exactly the same problem as foo.

If you remove and replace battery, sometime problem is solve, sometime no.

Soft reset solve the problem.

I made hardware reset + flash xperia but no solution.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foo:
I returned mine and bought a new one that does not have this issue. It really seems to be a hardware issue.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karthu:
It could be, although I have not paired with a BT headset since buying it, and in addition I have hard reset the phone and put it in airplane mode (no RF at all) and the audio still manages to completely die where only a Soft Reset will restore the sound (as noted by x1inside).

Depending on the amount of time I leave the phone sometimes the phone after playing some music for 5 seconds will stutter and restore sound. This is similar to the description in the Touch Diamond thread that foo linked. Also when this stutter sound restores, as noted in that thread, the reception indicator in the system tray indicates that the signal is temporarily lost and then restored.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karthu:

Same problem here just got an X1 and the sound works perfect after leaving it a short while the sound completely stops working no music, notifications or anything. By the sounds of it I think I will send mine back to O2 and get a replacement, although it does seem more like some sort of software fault than hardware to me, like the previous post why would it be corrected by a soft reset every time. If anyone has any suggestions before I send this thing back I will be happy to try them.

I had that exact same problem. I'd leave my phone alone for a while and then when I came back to it a few hours later, it would have no audio at all. I could make a call, the other person could hear me but I couldn't hear them and it wouldn't audibly alert me to anything...

I couldn't pin it down to any particular circumstances but it was always resolvable with a soft-reset. A hard-reset didn't cure the issue either. I just sent it back in the end. My current one is fine although I have now upgraded the ROM to the latest one.

I do have one outstanding issue though and that's that when sending a text, it sends immediately, flashes up the bubble saying msg sent, but the vibrate from sending the message will come about 10 minutes after or it'll do it when I turn the screen back on. It's not a biggie but it's a bit weird.

[Android Auto General] gaminel:
I have a 2014 Acura MDX with no Android Auto Support. I purchased a Navtool kit which allowed me to add Carplay/Android Auto to it. With Carplay, I can configure the phone to play the music through Bluetooth because the Navtool interface plays through Aux and it passes engine electrical noise. When I use my Pixel 6 Pro, even when the phone says it is connected to Bluetooth, the sound is still forced through the Aux output of the Navtool's device.

Is there a way to configure Android Auto to play through Bluetooth?
