Hi,
here you can find my preview version of LineageOS 20.0 for our Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 devices.
At first I want to thank @rINanDO and @ChronoMonochrome for all your work which helped me a lot.
This is a ALPHA build, also on the LineageOS side, so don't install it if you want a completley stable rom and don't report my already listet bugs!
Here you can see how far everything is working for now.
Spoiler: Whats working
Boot
Bluetooth
Audio
Graphics
Cameras
Sensors
Wifi
GPS
USB
Video playback (HW/SW)
Tethering via USB, WIFI and Bluetooth
consumerir transmitter
Stylus
RIL
much more...
Spoiler: Whats not working
Random reboots
Accelerometer
GPS for N5100 and N5110
Network monitoring because of missing eBPF
Encryption
Maybe more
SD-Card can't be formatted as internal storage, this will cause a bootloop
Spoiler: Links
TWRP
ROM Mega
Gapps, I don't recommend them, use the smallest package
Spoiler: Don't like my boot picture?
If you don't like it, reboot into recovery and type the following command:
adb shell (or use TWRP's terminal)
bash /data/param_restore.sh
reboot
Uploaded a prepared package to build your own boot picture
download
I would recommend to use microG (much faster experience) or open Gapps as soon they are available.
Do you like my work?
Than you can simply hit the thanks button and consider to spend me a coffee or a beer,
I'm doing this in my free time and it also costs a lot of money to buy hardware.
donate
Wanna improve your sound configs, control your charging current and more?
Now you can use my app to access all boeffla configurations, there will follow more functions.
Exynos4 Kernel Manager - Apps on Google Play
This app provides Boeffla sound control and other kernel + charging tweaks
play.google.com
Spoiler: How to install it?
Instructions
Spoiler: microG instructions
Download Magisk 24.1 and flash it via TWRP (yes, flash the APK file), reboot
Open Magisk and update the App (and do a reboot if it's asking)
Enable Zygisk in Magisk
Download and install microG installer in the Magisk manager, reboot
Download and install safetynet-fix in the Magisk manager, reboot
Check with a safetynet checker app and you should pass

There's no rush. BTW, your 19.1 thread also has the incorrect link for Mega. I think it's another cut and paste error from you trying to shim a symbol because it starts with _Zn.
Thanks.

Thank you for your dedication.

@html6405
I think the thread title is wrong. It should be Android 13 instead of Android 12L.

everything seems to be working apart from the things that you listed. only thing i noticed is that the battery life is really poor, mic is not working and the keyboards scaling is a little bit weird? Great work tho keep it up )

I have have the Android 13 version now running on my GTN-5100 since 3 days. Besides 1-2 crashes it seems to be stable enough. Things I am missing most with that ROM is GPS and missing encryption.
The Android 13 version has one bug, I not have seen on the earlier versions. I can not change the background picture when this has a certain size. How to reproduce:
Store an image ~ 3 MB e.g. into your Download folder
Long press in Trebuchet launcher to change background & style
Select Change background
Try to load the picture from the Download folder => error message stating "Background image could not be loaded. Either the image is defect or not accessible, which is both not the case
Since Android 11 I see the following behavior with certain apps. Example organic maps from F-droid. The app is not able to store the maps on the SD card.
How to reproduce:
Install "organic maps" from F-droid. Launch app
The app asks you to download the world map.
If you store the map on the internal storage, all is fine and the map can be displayed
If you store the map on the SD card, which is the wanted behavior because of the amount of data of offline maps, the map can not be displayed but no further error message about not being able to store the data.
I use the ROM withou Gapps. I am happy with the pre-installed Aurora store
Happy to do some further testing in case it helps
Again, I am really happy with the speed and quality of the releases

Hi @html6405, I generated now a log file created during organic map tries to download and store the basic map on the device. I hope that helps detecting where their might be a bug.
I remain using the ROM happily with a crash occasionally.
A minor thing I am missing, which was there on the 19. and 18. version is the wake up functionality when pulling the device out of a wallet. Not sure if this is simply due to Android 13 functionality or something you added to the ROMs before.

How is your experience with this ROM so far? stable? bugs?

All ROMS are very usable and stable. I am, after testing all of them went back to the /e/ version based on Android 9 for the following reasons:
Stability
Encryption
Data Privacy
Simplistic UI
All applications I need are running well on the device
I know, that there are no more updates and I will probably make the move back to one of the later ROMs when I can encrypt and all applications are running with no storage access issues. That is a very personal preference and there are many reasons to have a different preference. I am thankful to have this number of choices for such an old device with still a great form factor an an active pen

Which Android-9 based ROM you're running right now?

Hi, Do you have screen rotation, I don't have

Awesome Rom, thanks

thanks

[ROM][AOSP][7.1/8.1/9.0 EXP][flo/deb] Unlegacy Android Project

The Unlegacy Android Project​Introduction
Unlegacy-Android started out as the OMAP4-AOSP Project. It was created in late 2015 in order to maintain a clean and organized place for pure AOSP support for various OMAP4 devices, such as the Galaxy Nexus and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 series. Over time this evolved to support more than just these devices, but still maintains its roots of supporting "legacy" devices that no longer receive "official" updates: hence Unlegacy Android was born. In our opinion, these ROMs are how the official updates would look.
On top of AOSP, we only include changes which are necessary to support the hardware, be secure, and get acceptable performance. Current features for flo/deb include:
- Linux kernel 3.4.y merged in (currently 3.4.108 - mostly security patches and minor bug fixes)
- BFQ IO scheduler (official kernel 3.4 release), set up so GUI processes have the highest priority
- F2FS support from kernel 4.9 (for /data only!)
- SELinux in Enforcing mode
Installation
If you're planning to install GApps, be sure to read the second post!
Aside from these, installation and upgrading is no different than on other ROMs.
Problems
- No known issues for flo/deb yet.
If you notice anything, be sure to report it in this thread. Stability is our main concern. While I'm kind of busy, I usually read the thread and acknowledge the bug reports, even if I don't reply directly to them.
Downloads
See: http://builds.unlegacy-android.org. Our automated builds ensure that we always have the latest Android security patches merged in, without having to manually start and upload builds
We will have a built-in OTA updater (just like stock) soon (it's a work in progress)
Information about our experimental builds and progress you may find here.
Features?
There isn't much to say here - this is AOSP, if you install GApps, you pretty much get the same thing that's running on the Nexus devices (see the second post). The aim of this project is to create a fast and stable ROM - although, one could use Xposed to add extra features.
As usual, feedback is appreciated

GApps
If you want to install GApps, we recommend Open GApps Micro.
An important note: as this is a pure AOSP ROM, installing GApps tends to be problematic: in order to try to avoid installation issues, be sure to install GApps immediately after installing the ROM, before booting the system for the first time. If you experience any issues with the Google applications, be sure to go into Settings -> Apps, and grant every permission to every Google application - most importantly, Google Play services.
In the case of an upgrade, be sure to re-install the GApps package, as upgrading wipes /system. You shouldn't need to re-set the permissions afterwards.
Stock-like setup
Disable the following built-in (AOSP) apps:
- Android keyboard (once you installed Gboard)
- Browser
- Calculator
- Camera
- Clock
- Email
- Gallery
Install the following apps from the Play store:
- Google Photos (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.photos)
- Calculator (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calculator)
- Chrome (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android.chrome)
- Clock (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.deskclock)
- Gboard (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.inputmethod.latin)
- Gmail (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gm)
- Google Calendar (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calendar)
- Google Camera (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.GoogleCamera)
- Google Now Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher)
SafetyNet
The ROM should pass SafetyNet after installing GApps, without anything else. Keep in mind that installing extra stuff (SU, ...) might make it fail!
Rooting
You can flash the latest Magisk to get rooted.

I simply use Darker for night time playing in the bed personally, I reduce brightness to 65% and apply a slight yellow tint. When most websites are white, theming the framework wouldn't matter that much anyways... and we kinda want to feel like a factory image (no dark mode in them either)
@Ziyan
It's a pity)
The rom itself works fine. Good job)
@Ziyan Thanks for your efforts on these older devices. I've used your work on both Gtab 2 and Grouper before I sold them. I just downloaded 0324 builds for Flo and Hammerhead, neither one matched the MD5. I just downloaded Flo again but still no match. I haven't tried flashing any of the roms yet but figured I'd let you know.
Also, don't know if you use Netflix but it's been a problem getting a current version of the app working properly on ANY Nougat rom for Flo. Without any modifications, the Netflix app will load and give you an option to download and watch at a later time. However, if you try to just do a normal streaming of a movie or show, it will give you an error 0013. As is mostly the history of Netflix, it appears to be a drm issue. @Startrek852 was able to compile a zip with drmblobs that will eliminate the error 0013 and allow normal streaming but you lose the ability to download and watch at a later time. Although I don't use Google Movies, it's my understanding that it will not work if you flash the drmblobs.
Anyway, just wondering if "in your travels" you've heard of this Netflix issue and might possibly know of a proper fix. Thanks again.

Play Movies works perfectly, so I'm not sure how to debug that either ways - can look into that zip later on.

Very weird on the MD5 thing, as mentioned I downloaded it twice and on a desktop PC so it shouldn't be a mobile issue??? I'm gonna' flash it later, will report if there's a problem.

Updates come out every day ...?)
And why the cache is not f2fs?
I'm sorry that there are a lot of questions. I just made this rom basic and I want to figure it all out
p.s. That there were no problems with gapps - you need to restart the recovery after flashing the main rom
have volume wake option?

Our little build server likes overdoing its job and building even if the changes don't affect flo - until this is fixed, it's enough to update every 3-4 weeks or so to get the security updates, unless I make an announcement here about a change
About /cache f2fs: there's simply no point, as that partition isn't actively used by the system (other than maybe OTA updates). I usually don't support it, as it can lead to more complications than what it worth...
@Ziyan
Thank you for your reply)
I really like the way the rom works.
Only have to use a lot of additional tools to at least somehow expand the settings)))

[ROM][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 14.1 Nightlies for the Google Pixel (marlin/sailfish)

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 7.1 (Nougat), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.

*/
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community.
All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit our Gerrit Code Review.
Unofficial LineageOS Builds
Pixel XL (marlin): https://updater.invisiblek.org/marlin
Pixel (sailfish): https://updater.invisiblek.org/sailfish
Google apps
Google apps (opengapps nano) are baked in to these builds. This is due to the A/B partition layout and complications backing up/restoring gapps between builds. This is not ideal, and is the major road block to getting this device in to official status with Lineage. I also include the Google camera app rather than Camera2 or Snap since it works much better.
Source
While I update the official LineageOS trees with completely usable source, these builds include a few more experimental things than what I would include in official Lineage builds, pending that ever happens. The device and kernel repos that these builds are based off are from my github.
Installation
The easiest way to install LineageOS is to load up twrp (see twrp thread on how to do that) and flash the zip from above for your pixel variant (marlin/sailfish). After that, the built-in updater app should handle future updates via A/B updates within android. Beware this feature is still a work in progress and can be broken at any time as well. If for whatever reason the install fails through the updater app, loading up twrp again and flashing a newer zip is perfectly acceptable.
The LineageOS team would like to thank everyone involved in helping with testing, coding, debugging & documenting! Enjoy!

How come gapps are still baked in when there are working gapps for pixel? Beans gapps works fine.
Glad to see this finally getting an XDA thread so it gets more awareness. I only knew this existed prior due to the questions and answers thread.
I know OP says it comes with nano gapps. But does that mean that it has all the essential pixel gapps. I can't find myself using the also ones. I wish there was a flashable stock gapps package

You can't flash beans full gapps? Actually it will probably just have duplicates since gapps are already installed

That is correct. However, the there are still those aosp apps that don't hold a candle to the Google alternatives. I am super used to flashing the stock Google package on all my phones. I guess I will just stay on stock May Factory Image until I find one with all pixel features. Lineage OS is one of the most stable ROMs that I have came across.

What apps are you looking for that can't just be downloaded from the play store? Any of the AOSP ones can be disabled, so you never see them (yea a bit of a pain but you only have to do it once per app that you replace from the play store). For instance, I install google's calendar app and disable the AOSP one. You can do the same with any other app as far as I know.

That's what I do. Then things stay put when you flash an update. If you delete the app it will come back when you flash an update.
Cool beans and good to see you again invis (I've also had tenderloin, d2vzw and vs985 so you've kind of been following me around). How's the general status of the build? Any known breakages?
And btw, the changelog links on the download page don't go anywhere.
Doesn't boot for me. 15 minutes at the boot animation and all that's happened so far is that my phone is hot. Installed 20170506 over NHG47L.
Edit: ah you need to be on N2G47O.
So this is the May O build. It's been said all over the forums but just to nip it in the bud here, don't go trying to flash a different kernel that isn't signed or use Chainfire's zip to sign the kernel, otherwise you'll get stuck in a boot loop. The May bootloader update made it so it won't boot with an unsigned boot image.
@invisblek Great to see you here I've always been a big fan of your work unfortunately I haven't had a device for several years where you were making ROMs for. I'm generally not a fan of lineage but will give this a try just because you built it.
I noticed in the kernels git that you have WALT enabled across the board, but the official spec is to use PELT with EAS - new for rev 1.2. did you have a reason for choosing Walt? It isn't a big deal anyway, assuming the properties are exposed users can use ex kernel manager to turn Wall off and turn Pelt on.
Also 8 branches, 6 active you've been busy! I take it the default 14.1 branch is the kernel used in this ROM? I see all sorts of new stuff across your code and am very thankful you've came over to pixel development.
A side note in regards to build to Verizon users:. I flash the modem and radio from the L build as its May's Verizon only and I don't nearly have as many problems with signal retention. It didn't completely fix the problem but it's definitely been improved. and when I say retention I mean I'll be at the same location and my pixel will suddenly lose signal completely for a random period of time and then go back to having a signal. This used to occur very often the phone would be intolerable without Wi-Fi calling but the L build which specifies it's Verizon only must have had some changes in it to improve this.
Looking forward to trying your work. Thanks for your time and effort!
I don't use either so it doesn't matter to me, but I noticed that LiveDisplay and Color Calibration do not work at all. Neither change the screen color when you adjust them. I'm on the May 5th build right now.
@invisiblek just a heads up. I flashed today's build and Google Camera video recording at 30FPS crashes. "Camera error".
I've posted the logcat before, let me know if you still need one.
It was a full wipe including internal SD, just FYI.
I didn't install any apps or superuser. I booted up for first time and immediately tested Google Camera.

He's already aware of it and I believe he already pushed the fix for it, I just don't think it's been merged. It's something to do with ffmpeg.
Been running or a few days now, everything is good except that the updater doesn't work. It detects updates, clicking the Download button goes to Downloading state, then Downloaded, and the Install button shows up; clicking Install goes to Installing state for a little while then back to Downloaded, and clicking Install again gives a message "an update is already in progress", and the update never completes.
I'm interested in doing my own builds for my Pixel XL, for some stuff I want to test but I'm wondering if you can tell me which SafetyNet patch you're including and what you're including to enable the blue Pixel theme and Pixel navbar.
So, I've been running the ROM for over 3 days now and I've got to say that it has been great so far. Currently using 20170508 right now, and it's all good.
Have disabled all the AOSP apps and have installed all the Google apps from the Play Store to replace them. Everything is almost the way it is on stock.
Had to install the live data wallpapers, and install the Pixel launcher as a system app to get the Now feed integration, but so far it's been like stock but with all the extra features I've wanted. Even installed the AptX codecs, and my phone still passes SafetyNet.
So far the only downsides I've seen are that Google Camera crashes upon taking a second video, haven't gotten WiFi assistant to work yet, and my phone gets a bit toasty playing music but I'm pretty sure that it is GPM being stupid again and not the ROM. But overall it has been an excellent experience.

The updater has worked just fine for me, taking me from 20170506 to 07 without TWRP installed and from 07 to 08 when I had TWRP installed. Don't if 08 to 09 is broken right now so I need to test.

Yes, I was aware of that "fix". And it's already merged.
But it does not work.
Google Camera 30fps video still crashes.
I was just letting him know the fix he was told about does not work.
The fix being to remove FFMPEG from /system/etc/media_codecs.
I even tried deleting the media_FFMPG file and duplicating at /system_root/etc/.

Lineage is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. Lineage does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
We'll not support users and answer questions from users which:
are running a custom kernel
have flashed mods
modified system files
didn't follow our intructions word by word
are unfriendly
And most important: DON'T READ THE OP
What's working:
Most things are working at the moment except ones in BUGS/Not working list
BUGS/Not working :
RIL isn't working (no calls, messages, etc...)
Camera can't capture, or recording (and still buggy on next start)
Can't capture screen (I was doing hacks to make screen capture working XD)
Browsers may not working properly. In this case, install Google Chrome from Play Store instead (it may still not work too )
No FM radio (unsupported on this platform)
Offline charging works but NO animations
And many more, so don't expect too much on the first alpha build!
First time installing AOSPE to your Galaxy Grand Prime VE, or coming from another ROM:
Install TWRP Recovery
Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo (Vol-up+Home+Power)
Do a Nandroid backup! (Optional and only if you weren't running TouchWiz before)
WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition + format /system partition)*
Install the ROM from sdcard using TWRP Recovery
Optionally install the Google Apps ( get it here: https://opengapps.org ) (pico GAPPS recommended) (*)
NOTE: First boot might take long time, due to deodexed build, so don't consider bootloop!!
Upgrading from an older build of this ROM
Wipe system partition, wipe dalvik-cache but not data partition
Optionally install Google Apps (GAPPS) (link above)
(*) NOTE: If you're about going to install GAPPS with ROM, install it right after you've installed the ROM, else you have to do a factory reset if you've booted the ROM first

F.A.Q
Q: ROM startup too slow?
A: Nope, just because you haven't done a factory reset before installing the ROM
Q: ETAs?
A: See here: Link
Q: Anymore models supported?
A: SM-G531BT
Q: Is init.d supported on this ROM?
A: Almost every custom ROMs support init.d, so be free at scriptings
Q: Can you include ABCXYZ feature / Samsung Apps here?
A: NO!
Q: Can I use your ROM as a base for portings?
A: Yes, you could, but give proper credits
Q: Server error in Google Play Store?
A: Install latest Google Play Services manually first (might take long time, due to Lollipop's nature), then you can install apps from GG Play as usual
Q: How to use adoptable storage feature? I see it's new in Marshmallow
A: Go to Settings >> Storage & USB >> Tap on the SD card label (not the eject icon) >> 3 dots menu on the top right >> Settings >> Format as internal and done!
Q: Where's the MTP option in Marshmallow? I don't see it in Storage settings
A: This feature has been moved to Developer settings, and will reset to default (Charging) after every reboots. Enable developer options first by tapping 7 times on Build number in About phone section >> Go to Developer settings >> Select USB configuration. The fastest way to do this is plug in your USB with your PC, scroll down notification bar and tap on "USB for Charging"
Q: Where's the "running" section in Apps settings?
A: It has been cut off separately to Memory setting and "Running services" in Developer settings. You can see the memory used by apps for a period of time and closing apps too, but they won't disappear in the menu, and in "Running services", still same as old-fashioned running apps section
Q: Can't install GAPPS?
A: Install TWRP 3.0.2.0

@naimrlet or remilia can anyone answer thatbwjat is the system partition size for this ROM as I don't have enough storage to patch this ROM dual boot. I want to know as If its possible I will try to clean my system partition or else would search for other method. I asked the same question on the dual booted thread Sorry for that but I'm really impatient to try this ROM.
Could you help zim555 with los15?
Awesome ROM, very smooth, but as reported that none of the browsers work, Google app, playstore, Google play services, installed manually using apk, force closes. WiFi working fine, Bluetooth working fine. Using Aptoide as an alternative to play store
My friend has G531H, he asked me to find an android O ROM for him, so i found this one. Can you please tell me what bugs may him find in this ROM? Such as SIM cards, mobile data and other connections, camera, google apps...Please answer me :laugh:

Error flashed on screen on reboot
I am getting 'There's an internal problem with your device. Contact your manufacturer for detail.' error on every reboot. I've flashed the 'BL_T825XXU3CSH9_CL16530048_QB25611745_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5' bootloader but still facing the issue.

Hi there,
do you have any intention to include palm rejection on Q?
It's the only missing feature on LOS...

Do custom ROMs have to have palm rejection added? It's not normal feature?
This would be good to know as I got this device to use the pen!
I notice that screen is very hard to wake up. I have to play all buttons in random combination to be able to bring up lock screen. Once it get unlocked, everything works find.
I did once get system UI locked error. I have to push all buttons to force it reboot.
So I tested this rom on my T820 Wifi and in my opinion it works pretty stable, except of some issues I recognised:
- Saving pictures does not work. The pictures I get are scrambled.
- sd cards in ntfs format not working
- Palm rejection is not working
- ed xposed causes boot into download mode
- screen wakup is sometimes slow
- Viper4Android is not working
- Speaker only working on one site (right)
- it's not possible to rename SD Card or uninstall any system app like mail-app via root
- Netflix is not working
- Not possible to activate a custom notification sound
- Adaway only working with systemless host activated in magisk
- trying to use miracast causes a complete crash of system ui and makes a reboot necessary
- digital wellbeing randomly fc if settings menu is open
- sometimes hardware buttons stuck and i have to wait 5 sec until I can use them again
Thanks for your work!
*update: On second build same issues and camera just force close, now
did anyone figure out how to get the camera to work. It takes pictures but to view them they all look scribble.
does this rom work with the T825Y?

Not working on second build for me
Now for the *REAL* question, does this ROM cause graphical glitches when you run a 3D load and heat the processor up to 100c?! That was my experience various unofficial LOS16/RR based Pie builds. I get temps in the worst case up to 97c under extreme load on the stock OneUI ROM, but normally it is way LOWER. Could someone (with the performance level in the power settings set to max) test games like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.PnA.Offroad and some heavier ones for an extended period of time, and maybe some benchmarks (AnTuTu, 3DMark, etc...) while watching the CPU temp and General SoC temp with a temp guage overlay (like the one in the paid option on DevCheck).

Don't expect that anything on this rom will fixed soon.
Always the same with this dev. He releases a build with issues, then he ignores all issue reports and only releases sometimes a new build with security updates and nothing more. I wish a had wait a little bit and bought a tab s5e, because it seems to be the only new Samsung tab with fully working custom roms and palm rejection.
Better you use stock rom for tab s3.

Not sure if answered but I fixed this by:
Copying the complete line ro.vendor.build.fingerprint.................. from the /system/build.prop file.
Paste replacing the line ro.vendor.build.fingerprint.................. in the /vendor/build.prop file.
These files crosscheck each other looking for this line. The files must be from different builds.

About /e/
/e/ is an a mobile ecosystem (ROM + onlines services) that:
is open source
is pro-privacy
is compatible with most existing Android applications
cares about usability
is as far as possible freed from shackles by Google and OEMs
already exists!
It’s the alternative to the Apple/Google duopoly on the smartphone.
... so again and just to be clear: /e/ is not just a ROM, it is more a complete privacy ecosystem and consists of:
an installable mobile operating system for smartphones, which is forked from Android and strongly “ungoogled”
a set of sorted and improved default open source applications
various online services that are linked to the mobile operating system, such as: a meta search engine for the web, drive (with synchronization), mail, calendar, notes, tasks.
Features
Based on the stable Lineage OS
microG fully pre-installed with Signature Spoofing in restricted mode!
All features described on the /e/ page: What is e
All features and fixes of LineageOS
My builds come with full OTA update support
... you know that thing which informs you that a new update is there and where you just click to download + install
Difference from pure /e/ or: why are the builds UNOFFICIAL?
There are no differences. its pure /e/. "just" build on my server
Known issues:
Keep in mind that this is brand new stuff so it may (still) contain unknown issues!
So back up regularly and frequently!
Camera does work but only for photo, i.e. video recording fails.
If you find a bug not listed let me know and SHARE LOGS! -> READ FAQ#1 for how to provide proper logs.
Requirements
Latest TWRP or SHRP (recommended) build.
Do a full (i.e. Nandroid) backup before doing anything!
Samsung STOCK firmware should be on T285XXU0AQH1.
You can check your current firmware version in Android -> settings -> About / Phone info -> Baseband version
If you like try first without flashing this firmware but if you encounter any issues upgrade to this version first before reporting
Fast and (afaik) good site for downloading: https://sfirmware.com/samsung-sm-t285/
(scroll down and type T285XXU0AQH1 in the search box, choose the one for your country, download, flash as usual, flash TWRP/SHRP again, flash this ROM)
Installation
Full clean install as described here (FAQ #2) is highly recommended. DO NOT REPORT ISSUES when you have skipped that step!
Flash /e/
Optional (if you want root): Flash Magisk
Flashing OpenGapps ????? STOOOOOOP! NO No no! you don't want that on a google-free phone! /e/ contains everything you need to live without Google! So flashing OpenGapps on /e/ is like using a bit more secure LOS but that's not the point of /e/. Either try without or go with LOS (imho).
Boot it (will take a bit on first boot!!! be patient!)
Enjoy the most easiest way to have a privacy focused and google-free phone!
Download
Get your builds from my leech server (new installs or re-installs)
http://leech.binbash.rocks:8008/e-os/nougat/gtexslte/
If you have a previous version of my(!) /e/ ROM installed already and just want to update to a newer release:

Note:
Builds are updated as soon as possible. There is no build cycle.
Information pertaining to your device is displayed accordingly.
The current build is the latest for your device.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q #01: I want to report an issue. What is the proper way to do so?
I'm glad that you are asking: before doing so check the KNOWN ISSUES topic in the OP and ofc the other FAQ's listed here!
if you have an audio issue follow FAQ #6 instead.
If your issue is not listed there click here to proceed:
If your issue is not listed there follow the directions here briefly and I may can fix it:
logcat GUIDE
Ensure you have done a full CLEAN install before doing so (refer to FAQ #2 for what that means).
Warning: NO SUPPORT when:
- magisk is installed (known to cause issues sometimes - regardless of the ROM or version)
- Xposed is installed (known to cause issues sometimes - regardless of the ROM or version)
If you have installed any of these UNINSTALL or better do a FULL CLEAN install (see FAQ #2) before doing anything else. Often enough these above causes several issues like battery draining, problems on booting and much more. Even when they may work properly you should re-produce your issue without them first and follow the above to grab the log.
Magisk is a great piece of software and besides that it is Open Source which SuperSu never was.
I just saying I do not "support" issues when you have Magisk installed. Why? It is (like Xposed) extendable with modules (made by whoever) and those can cause billions of issues.
Other then that magisk was sometimes the reason for battery drain etc. Magisk modifies the boot "process" and sits very deep in the system (which is needed to make it work ofc) but that has the potential to make a system/ROM unstable or result in strange behaviors.
so in order to support a specific issue I have to be sure the ROM is in a "clean" state, no magisk, no xposed.
Pro-Tip: a very first test is to set magisk on core functions only to see if an extension causes your issue or not.
Q #02: I want to install clean, how? What is a clean install? What is the recommended way to flash a new ROM version?
A clean install ensures that there are no leftovers from any previous install. One can say that there are 2 phases of a clean flash:
1) regular
2) full - when you (still) encounter issues
Usually the regular one is fully ok when flashing a new ROM version but if you encounter strange issues nobody else is reporting or if a release post is recommending it you should do a full clean install instead.
A regular clean install can be done like this:
WIPE -> Advanced -> select: System + Cache
Flash the ROM
reflash root addon/magisk if you want root
A full clean install needs 2 steps more then the regular:
follow the steps for regular clean
go back in WIPE -> touch the "FORMAT data" button and type "yes" to format the internal storage (you will LOOSE ALL YOUR DATA - obviously)
REBOOT -> Recovery
Flash the ROM
reflash root addon/magisk if you want root
It is absolutely recommended to create a backup before and COPYING IT to your PC(!) before doing the above.
Q #03: Are there any plans or a chance of official /e/ builds?
No plans on my site. I may check that later but the chance is very low.
Q #04: Will this ROM support / pass SafetyNet?
When you install Magisk you can hide and so yes you might be able to pass SafetyNet. Which can change every day though because even when that might work atm you should note the following:
Magisk has its own protections to ensure you pass safetynet but this is something which will change one day and there is no known method yet to workaround that.
Q #5: Is there an /e/ specific FAQ?
Sure:
FAQ: click
Forum: click
HOWTOs: click (a great resource for all your first questions)
Q #6: issues with audio (e.g. echo's, silence on one or the other site, ..)? Read here how to provide a specific log for that:
Do the following steps:
1) Ensure you have adb set up on your PC, and have adb debugging and adb root enabled in developer options on your phone
2) Then perform the following (all one command)
On Linux:
adb root ; adb shell "stop audioserver; logcat -c -b all; start audioserver" && sleep 10 && adb logcat -b all |egrep -vi "(dialer|telecom|ril|gsm|touch|brightn|dct|QC-time-services|SST|sensors|AlarmMan|Lights|perfp)"

Q #7: I'm scared about that microG , I don't want to expose my phone so is this /e/ version a security risk?
First of all you need a lot of trust installing ANY custom ROM. A developer can do nasty things right? Besides that yes microG allowing to let apps act like as they are another app, also known as signature spoofing. This CAN be a good and a bad thing. Read on why my builds are different:
In general the microG patch is an all or nothing. A ROM which supports microG (i.e. signature spoofing) have that feature enabled, always.
The difference in my /e/ builds is that I am using the "restricted" option of signature spoofing so as long as you trust me you are as safe as without microG.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q #01: I want to report an issue. What is the proper way to do so?
I'm glad that you are asking: before doing so check the KNOWN ISSUES topic in the OP and ofc the other FAQ's listed here!
if you have an audio issue follow FAQ #6 instead.
If your issue is not listed there click here to proceed:
If your issue is not listed there follow the directions here briefly and I may can fix it:
logcat GUIDE
Ensure you have done a full CLEAN install before doing so (refer to FAQ #2 for what that means).
Warning: NO SUPPORT when:
- magisk is installed (known to cause issues sometimes - regardless of the ROM or version)
- Xposed is installed (known to cause issues sometimes - regardless of the ROM or version)
If you have installed any of these UNINSTALL or better do a FULL CLEAN install (see FAQ #2) before doing anything else. Often enough these above causes several issues like battery draining, problems on booting and much more. Even when they may work properly you should re-produce your issue without them first and follow the above to grab the log.
Magisk is a great piece of software and besides that it is Open Source which SuperSu never was.
I just saying I do not "support" issues when you have Magisk installed. Why? It is (like Xposed) extendable with modules (made by whoever) and those can cause billions of issues.
Other then that magisk was sometimes the reason for battery drain etc. Magisk modifies the boot "process" and sits very deep in the system (which is needed to make it work ofc) but that has the potential to make a system/ROM unstable or result in strange behaviors.
so in order to support a specific issue I have to be sure the ROM is in a "clean" state, no magisk, no xposed.
Pro-Tip: a very first test is to set magisk on core functions only to see if an extension causes your issue or not.
Q #02: I want to install clean, how? What is a clean install? What is the recommended way to flash a new ROM version?
A clean install ensures that there are no leftovers from any previous install. One can say that there are 2 phases of a clean flash:
1) regular
2) full - when you (still) encounter issues
Usually the regular one is fully ok when flashing a new ROM version but if you encounter strange issues nobody else is reporting or if a release post is recommending it you should do a full clean install instead.
A regular clean install can be done like this:
WIPE -> Advanced -> select: System + Cache
Flash the ROM
reflash root addon/magisk if you want root
A full clean install needs 2 steps more then the regular:
follow the steps for regular clean
go back in WIPE -> touch the "FORMAT data" button and type "yes" to format the internal storage (you will LOOSE ALL YOUR DATA - obviously)
REBOOT -> Recovery
Flash the ROM
reflash root addon/magisk if you want root
It is absolutely recommended to create a backup before and COPYING IT to your PC(!) before doing the above.
Q #03: Are there any plans or a chance of official /e/ builds?
No plans on my site. I may check that later but the chance is very low.
Q #04: Will this ROM support / pass SafetyNet?
When you install Magisk you can hide and so yes you might be able to pass SafetyNet. Which can change every day though because even when that might work atm you should note the following:
Magisk has its own protections to ensure you pass safetynet but this is something which will change one day and there is no known method yet to workaround that.
Q #5: Is there an /e/ specific FAQ?
Sure:
FAQ: click
Forum: click
HOWTOs: click (a great resource for all your first questions)
Q #6: issues with audio (e.g. echo's, silence on one or the other site, ..)? Read here how to provide a specific log for that:
Do the following steps:
1) Ensure you have adb set up on your PC, and have adb debugging and adb root enabled in developer options on your phone
2) Then perform the following (all one command)
On Linux:
On windows:
3) Then re-produce your audio issue and cancel the logcat from step 2 before hanging up!
4) Share the logcat output from the console screen using paste.omnirom.org

Very nice job. Looking awesome:good:
Everything is ok except some problems/issues.
First is the camera. As you have said, camera does work but only for photo. But it only happens on the foundation.e.camera (default camera app). And in other apps require camera such as Qanda, it does not work. Like this:
The second problem is the cellular (or phone signal) problem. It says that "Emergency calls only" and I can't use mobile data(4g) or make any phone calls.
The next one is stability. Sometimes Espeak have fc (force-close) after using camera app.
and sometimes Bliss launcher (pre-installed) have some fc when i press home button.
Sorry if I can't provide to you the proper log because of some reasons.
Anyways, the rom works very well and actually better than the LOS i used before.
Without Google spyware, The performance increases and i have more ram to do other things.
I hope you will fix those issues i have mentioned above in future OTA updates.
Thank you for the nice work.
espeak is a known issue of /e/ OS and should be fixed hopefully anytime soon: https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/backlog/-/issues/1890
cam is nothing I will work on sorry..
signal issue is very likely because of your STOCK firmware --> make a screenshot of the full " about" menu in settings (where you see build number etc)
Can I encrypt /data partition like in the Settings > Encryption > Encrypt phone
and Encrypt SD Card with this ROM?
Also, how stable it is for daily driver/use?
Did you fix the mic routing issue when in call? Use earphone mic instead of the built in mic of the tablet?
How about the video when app like Element.io or some other video conferencing apps?

Here are some screenshots
This one is from "about tablet" menu.
And I bonus some screenshots include some information i have from the "Device info HW" app (ru.andr7e.deviceinfohw, maybe you've already known it before).
That's all the screenshot i provided.
GAPS does not work. I'm using the open_gapps-arm-7.1-nano-20170503.zip version

ok your cell service issue could come from a too old stock firmware. yours is from 2016 and there were some releases later on.
I have adjusted the OP with instructions (pls see topic "Requirements") with the firmware I am using without issues.
.-
It is difficult to find a ROM that works well on this device. It is for my daughter and I also can't get a ROM that works with Samsung's Kids Mode.

i have tried so many ways. And it is not working after all.
installed T285XXU0AQH1 baseband from the BTU csc , but the cell service issues still happening.
my original csc is XXV, and the latest update still T285XXU0API1 baseband (20171115 ver.)

uhm.. well that was not what I said. I did not say "install the baseband" I said install the FULL(!!!!!) STOCK firmware. Here again:
Samsung STOCK firmware should be on T285XXU0AQH1.
You can check your current firmware version in Android -> settings -> About / Phone info -> Baseband version (===> hint: this info is the best indicator to find out your current STOCK firmware, afaik)
If you like try first without flashing this firmware but if you encounter any issues upgrade to this version first before reporting
Fast and (afaik) good site for downloading: https://sfirmware.com/samsung-sm-t285/
(scroll down and type T285XXU0AQH1 in the search box, choose the one for your country, download, flash as usual, flash TWRP/SHRP again, flash this ROM)
There is nothing mentioned to extract just a subset and only flashing a subset. No. flash it completely or leave it. Just flashing part of it will break and/or even hard brick.

Ok,i have given up. I don't know the way to install that properly because of the CSC differences(you said it should be in T285XXU0AQH1 but it didn't available in my country XXV. XXV still use T285XXU0API1 even with the latest update from 2017). So i will use that normally bc i'm ok without cellular.​Btw things still work like a charm, and i have no regret of choosing this rom.

Sorry for misunderstanding.
I have found the reason why the cellular issues comes out. It is made by the SIM card itself, not the baseband version or the stock firmware version as you have said. I was wrong when i think that it come from the software or stock firmware. Now i found out the reason for that. Sincerely apologize to you.

Anyways thanks for noticing the recquirements. I think it is not necessary now since i found the real reason for the cellular issues.
When I changed another SIM card, it works flawlessly.

About /e/
/e/ is an a mobile ecosystem (ROM + onlines services) that:
is open source
is pro-privacy
is compatible with most existing Android applications
cares about usability
is as far as possible freed from shackles by Google and OEMs
already exists!
It’s the alternative to the Apple/Google duopoly on the smartphone.
... so again and just to be clear: /e/ is not just a ROM, it is more a complete privacy ecosystem and consists of:
an installable mobile operating system for smartphones, which is forked from Android and strongly “ungoogled”
a set of sorted and improved default open source applications
various online services that are linked to the mobile operating system, such as: a meta search engine for the web, drive (with synchronization), mail, calendar, notes, tasks.
Features
Based on the stable Lineage OS
microG fully pre-installed with Signature Spoofing in restricted mode!
All features described on the /e/ page: What is e
All features and fixes of LineageOS
My builds come with full OTA update support
... you know that thing which informs you that a new update is there and where you just click to download + install
Difference from pure /e/ or: why are the builds UNOFFICIAL?
There are no differences. its pure /e/. "just" build on my server
Known issues:
Keep in mind that this is brand new stuff so it may (still) contain unknown issues!
So back up regularly and frequently!
Camera does work but only for photo, i.e. video recording fails.
If you find a bug not listed let me know and SHARE LOGS! -> READ FAQ#1 for how to provide proper logs.
Requirements
Latest TWRP or SHRP (recommended) build.
Do a full (i.e. Nandroid) backup before doing anything!
Samsung STOCK firmware should be on T285XXU0AQH1.
You can check your current firmware version in Android -> settings -> About / Phone info -> Baseband version
If you like try first without flashing this firmware but if you encounter any issues upgrade to this version first before reporting
Fast and (afaik) good site for downloading: https://sfirmware.com/samsung-sm-t285/
(scroll down and type T285XXU0AQH1 in the search box, choose the one for your country, download, flash as usual, flash TWRP/SHRP again, flash this ROM)
Installation
Full clean install as described here (FAQ #2) is highly recommended. DO NOT REPORT ISSUES when you have skipped that step!
Flash /e/
Optional (if you want root): Flash Magisk
Flashing OpenGapps ????? STOOOOOOP! NO No no! you don't want that on a google-free phone! /e/ contains everything you need to live without Google! So flashing OpenGapps on /e/ is like using a bit more secure LOS but that's not the point of /e/. Either try without or go with LOS (imho).
Boot it (will take a bit on first boot!!! be patient!)
Enjoy the most easiest way to have a privacy focused and google-free phone!
