hello, as title say i've got the tab a 10.1 2016 , lte version. i would like to install lineageos 18 (android 11) on this device, because it still work good and overall performance it's still good (not with the stock one, very slow). i tried this with twrp 3.5.0 (latest version), it flashes the img file, but it wont run and goes bootloop. then i flashed the modified twrp 3.2.3 for treble, flashed the treble.zip and the img file of lineageos (i seeked for a-only and 64bit version), but it ends in bootloop. so what's wrong with it? i noticed that only lineageos 16 gsi or other 9.0 roms run fine, going on android 10 gsi it wont be recognized. there's a way to get the android 11 gsi working on this device? it should be compatible, as from oreo it should be supported with treble project.
Hi. I am new to flashing but is it possible you have to upgrade the bootloader first in order to be able to upgrade to lineageOS 18 (android 11)? Just according to my understanding from that thread. if you have older bootloader then it wont work. But i am new so i might be wrong and totally off
i think that it doesn't depend on the bootloader, but the recovery hasn't been updated anymore by the developer. he might have lost interest in the device, so that stopped building roms too. the tablet was not that bad, but for my experience, too much slow and the battery didn't last so much. for these reasons i gave up and ended in selling it, replaced with the sm-t500 (tab a7 2020). waaay better tablet, now waiting for someone who unlocks this little beast and builds a custom recovery or rom.

Hi everybody
I ve a lg v20 h990n with a security patch of 2019 february .
1-is there a way to root it ?
2- what is the best custom rom
Thank you
Guide , use the latest twrp from here, and instead of the kernel from the guide, I'd use mk2000.
As for roms, H990s don't get too much attention unfortunately, but to start I'd just grab this stock flashable zip to get back to a recent version of oreo. As for proper custom roms, Lineage 15.1 is pretty solid, though the second screen doesn't work (its set to stay blank), I recommend using Gamma kernel with Lineage 15.1, while Lineage 16.0 is still kinda early, but is getting more stable slowly.
Hello folks,
Since most roms come with Gapps separately, I have a problem trying to use the Dual Boot Patcher, because when use it, can´t install roms on tradictional way, no boots, so have to decide between a rom with included Gapps (have just found two 9 pie that works), or without Gapps.
I´m trying to get a Rom 8.1 android version or earlier because I feel the Pie feels more heavy to run app I need, while 8.1 seems smooth. But I should like to get it with gapps to avoid being restarting the phone all the time. So,
Anyone know a rom for I9505 android 8.1 version or earlier with included Gapps? or
does anyone have experience with the dual boot patcher app installed a Rom+gapps? If I do (even patching all ok) if install Gaps doesnt boot, so I guess may there is a folder name difference or something I´m missing..
thank you in advance.
Why do you need the dual boot patcher thingy?
Much simpler and safer to TWRP and single ROM install.
No problem installing GAPPS, no stability issues with phone restarts. Too easy.
One solution is to go down to the kitchen section of the forum and learn how to slipstream the gaps into the rom.
Hi, have you tried LOS 17.1 by JDC team ? It is awesome and Dark mode brings so much battery life.

I want to find the best ROM for this tablet so that we all use the most stable ROM for this tablet
Which ROM do you think is the best for this tablet
at moment it seems that best rom is lineageos 18 or 17, but they lack of gps and sim support, as the developer hasn't got that device model and so he won't develop any rom for that, but only for wifi version. as i need gps working at least, i'm trying to get working android 11 gsi, but it ends in bootloop. i'm using modified twrp 3.2.3 treble-supported and flashed the latest treble.zip, but i think this is outdated, so you can only end up installing android 9 gsis and not above. very sad that lte variant not got sufficent support, because the tablet it's still good and overall performance also, but if can't try any new gsi, i'm thinking to sell it...
Hello !
Has anyone actually managed to get any custom ROM to work on a Samsung Galaxy A40 SM-A405FN/DS ?
Mine is currently running the current latest stock ROM (SM-A405FN_2_20211030045838_jg43vcqbiw_fac) downloaded with Frija and I managed to install TWRP from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-a40-teamwinrecoveryproject-3-6-x-unofficial.4364575/
However, ANY custom ROM that I try to install :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/a11-r-arm64-a40-lineageos-18-1-unofficial-by-kevios12.4335409/
https://sourceforge.net/projects/eurekaroms/files/Samsung/A40/R/lineage/
GSI
maybe others that I forgot
will either bootloop or end up with a black screen.
Looking at the following threads, I'm starting to wonder if the SM-A405FN/DS is custom-ROM-compatible at all ?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/help-my-a405fn-wont-boot-any-custom-rom.4337041/

Im running CrDroid 7.13 without any issues with root and gapps. Many custom roms bootloop because of your newer firmware with Bit/SW REV.
Security Patch Lvl. being 4 and those custom rom were built on the older firmware with probably patch level 3. I had installed DotOS fan edition fully working like a year ago, then I tried some new custom roms, which somehow broke my system so the system couldnt start up even after reflashing original boot image, so I reflashed to the newest firmware which was working, then I tried flashing older one and it wouldnt boot, it just shows black screen with error bit/sw 3 boot 4. So you have to flah roms, whose are built on the newer bit level to boot up, the best is CrDroid and now the newest ALT-F4 version 0.0.3 from this forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-oneui-3-1-a40-alt-f4-v0-0-1-updated-2021-12-18.4373813/
I tried it myself and it is the best for this phone, it is fully debloated and pre-rooted stock rom. I also tried CrDroid 8x, everything works for me, but it fells slow and the ram is almost maxed out. I also recommend upgrading to this TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-official-twrp-for-galaxy-a40-a405fn.4025587/
The unofficial twrps had some bugs for me. I hope this helps and happy flashing!
THANK YOU for your comprehensive reply !! I'll give ALT-F4 a try as soon as I can !

Good luck!
Well, luck has not been enough: after updating TWRP to the official version, I tried yesterday to install ALT-F4 0.0.3 but got the exact same result: black screen, need to reflash the stock ROM to make it boot (even to recovery !!) again.
Would you have any other idea ?
EDIT:
I actually tried crDroid in the past, to no avail either.
Hi,
Its been a long time since I last rommed any phone. Last Was my beloved 'Bacon' (Oneplus One) which I rommed till it died.
I am trying to install a custom rom on my wife's Mi A1. Have a few questions.
Which is the most stable rom (Android 11 preferred but if android 11 isn't stable then android 10 will do). Trying to replace the boring stock rom with some much needed features. but don't need a super tweaked up rom. Stability is most important. : edit: installed lineage 18.1.
Can I directly flash TWRP 3.6.0_9-0-tissot over stock? As with Bacon, I needed to flash One recovery then another to get a version jump. like I cant directly flash twrp 3.x over stock. I needed to flash TWRP 2.xy and then 3.0. (example, not real version numbers.)
I don't need root. But I do need the device to pass SafetyNet as I need it to operate apps like Gpay (which does not work if device fails SafetyNet).
Can I re lock the bootloader after flashing TWRP? Would it help with SafetyNet situation?
OpenGapps still good?

2. You can directly flash TWRP on stock rom.
