I convinced myself the grass wasn't really going to be greener on the other side, and that Nougat need ironed out, and so I should be patient and enjoy MM with xposed. Then the other night, I thought it wouldn't hurt just to try Nougat, so I took the bait and flashed RR. I really thought I bricked my phone. It installed okay - no problems. It was when I'd reboot the phone would spiral into a crash and freeze, and get blazing hot. Yes, clean installed wiped all but storage/boot/recovery. Tried to re-flash a couple of times. Same story, all went well until the minute I reboot. Then my phone wouldn't even turn on. 2 days later on the charger I managed to 'wake' it back up. x829 here.
So right now it's back to LOS13 Not great battery, but everything just works and I prefer the stock-like google android.
Any good ROM support Substratum?

Well maybe you did something wrong. Try to reflash again.
RR-N is fantastic and at the moment absolutely the best rom for X82x.
All of us would have the same problems you are mentioning if that is true...

Maybe its a good idea flash stock first and wipe everything exept sd card before. and then the next rom.

RR-N hands down.
I had a similar problem, I suspected TWRP wasn't wiping correctly. Flashing over top (which I thought were " clean " flashes) just added strange problems, battery, overheating, force reboots, bootloops. I couldn't even get factory data reset to work.
Only thing that worked was a complete restore back to 23s/ it fixed all the strange problems.

Well I'll have to try it again, maybe with the above suggestion of 1st returning stock. Today I decided to test drive the DU N ROM. It looks like DU might be what I might be looking for, as I really wanted something with Substratum support. Devs are crazy busy the last few days/weeks, great to see!
Edit.. Really like DU at the moment. Paired with the Magpie Reborn substratum, this le max 2 is themed out dark, and loving the experience

None of them, 'cause I have exactly zero trust in them.
It's either official ROMs/LineageOS or GTFO. You may as well tell me to install 100 pieces of malware.

Not in my case. Leaking 0.5-1% of battery every hour even in Ultra Power Savings mode (i.e. no WiFi, No Cellular, no wake ups, i.e. completely idle).
My Nexus 5 spends just 1% of battery every 20 hours with WiFi on and background apps runnings.

Heyyo, tbh there's no such thing as a final ROM fight as they're always evolving... For instance, I'd definitely never consider the current EUI as my final ROM due to lack of Vulkan and I hate the quick toggles in the recent apps compared to how good it works in notification drop down in every other Android ROM...
For MM though? RR MM would be my choice due to customization plus the More kernel is really good. Nougat based ROMs still have lot of work to be done but they're getting really darn good.

for me Indian 19s.

did the camera and battery improve since release

i used to follow zenfone 2 in the early stage when people used to talk about boot-loader unlock and crappy camera and battery. since then lot has been done as far as i see. now i am considering to buy this phone.
1. does this phone has the same bad battery life(standby+during use) like just after release in the custom roms like CM12.1 ,CM13 reseruction remix, Blisspop as i wouldn't use the stock rom most probably,(can anyone please post battery usage with hours till full charge, screen brightness % and screen on time)
2. what about camera? does it still take bad picture with stock/custom rom ? can anyone please post some sample photo?
thanks in advance
1.battery has improved but will depend on tour usage. stand by time is pretty good.
2.camera has improved quite a bit, check the photo thread to see samples.

1. battery life has improved a lot. And if want to use a custom kernel, it improves a lot.
2. camera got a lot better, though only in stock ROM (or stock based ones). Using cm right now, but the camera sucks so bad

what is total up time and brightness level? can you please post gsm battery screenshot?
Battery is ok, though nothing special. You can usually get a day out of it with about 4 hours SOT, and SOT can be pushed up to 6 or even 7 hours if you use in certain ways (not using LTE, as the cellular modem is a battery hog on the ZF2). I think this battery life is similar to a lot of flagship and midrange phones, and it has quickcharging too, which helps.
Given the price of the phone, the camera is pretty good if you use the stock firmware. On CM or other CM-based custom ROM, however, it becomes very limited - functional, but only really able to shoot snaps of social media posting grade. If the camera is a priority then I'd recommend sticking on stock or going for a different device.

Yea i got the stock camera pixel master on bliss pop. The camera sucks. And that sucks because i love bliss pop so much!
Camera is pretty good on stock rom but others its a no go
1. I don't think there's much difference in battery life through the updates, but I never cared about it since battery life was more than enough for me from the beginning. Based on my observation:
- Time to full charge: I guess around 2.30 hours from 0% to 100%. I only because I'm using the multiple-charging method which is to try to keep the phone between 50% and 90%.
- Screen on time: >4 hours at 50% auto bright ness, or more if you lower the brightness level. I don't think it's a good duration for many people but it serves me well enough. Also notice that I'm on stock with a LOT of configuration, I have been using Android for years so I know what is needed to do to achieve the most screen on time. Of course on custom roms you can push it a lot farther, but I haven't rooted my phone yet so I don't know how much more you can get. Basically, I think this is a bad thing because casual users are not supposed to be experienced like me to use a phone. The phone should be good enough for everyone with basic knowledge of Android.
- Camera: it's really bad at taking in low light, a lot a lot of noise and the darker it is, the worse it gets until it looks completely crappy. On the contrary, I think it's very good in day light, the color and details are kept naturally. It's acceptable for me.

Light sensor issue

Hi all,
I'm using this amazing phone in the last weeks and i noticed that, when exposed to sun or close to a light source, the screen starts brightening up until black gets almost light grey and colors start saturating. Then i tried to cover the light sensor and in a couple of seconds the screen reverts to original brightness and colors. The phone did this since the first day and noticed that my gf's is working perfectly. Already tried to flash, root and update but nothing changed.
Anyone else had this issue? What should i do?

Yes, I have the same issue too! I think there's nothing we can do... At least with the stock ROM. In fact, if I don't find any big cons, I will flash CM13. I'm sooooo tempted
There is something on the new sd820 assistive display not sure it's on with the std rom I know using rooted and use lspeed app u can force it on.

I was thinking to change rom too, but i still find the stock rom to be pretty good(let's just say not so crappy) , plus this is the only issue i had with this beast, so for now i'll keep it clean.

In CM12 LTE on second SIM doesn't work. I need it because i have internet from company on second SIM.
CM13 works very well except proximity and light sensor.
Why sometimes touch screen doesn't work and i most reboot the phone by pressing volume+, power ?
best rom so far! sound is good. viper4android is always welcome. battery is good. rom is smooth, and fast.
Im going to keep it as my daily rom, its so good, today i got 5h SOT with instagram, twitter, whatsapp and a little bit of clash royale
Help
Is sim 2 only 2g??
Wifi is frequently disconnecting.......
The new If first using 13 cm, Should install GAPPS

Screen on Time for different roms?

Any stats for SOT under different roms? I only got around 4 hours under recent RR rom (I have to keep bluetooth on all the time because of my watch). I heard about people could get 6 under original EUI.
I'm getting 4 hours on small eui by aurel.. Brightness is just a little bit more than the least
Around 4h on RR and AOKP, always auto brightness at max, default governor/kernel/battery profile.
I'm thinking of switching to stock 20s, sacrificing just a little performance and a few tweaks for more SOT.
7am to 11pm with around 6 hours sot mainly playing 8 Ball pool and tapped out lol. Official Indian rom with nova launcher.
My humble opinion is that the stock EUI ROM works great out of the box. SOT is just a little more than 6 hrs on average. The best thing of all - I do not have the need to restart my device at all. My record run was 3 months and a couple of days of constant on time. Never before did I own a smartphone with such a stable stock OS. I previously used android running LG, Samsung, ZTE Nubia and Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 ( Snapdragon ). This is also the first time that I didn't root my phone. Nor do I feel I have any reason to.

Performs perfectly well enough for me. No issues and no lags and all apps and games work fine.
If you mean it gets a lower benchmark then yes but who cares about benchmarks if it does what you want it to? I never run benchmarks because they are pointless.

Not for me its not. Not all about benchmarks if it works OK. Even a slower sd820 is not slow. The rom just works as it should. Though I have not tried the Chinese rom due to it not having play store and Indian one does. How easy is it to install play services on Chinese rom?
Tried most of custom roms and I was not impressed with any of them.

[ROM][SM-T825][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 14.1 | Android 7.1.2 20180301

I'm not responsible for any damage to your device of any sort.
By flashing this you take responsibility of anything that happens.
Process at your own risk!
If you want to check firmware - please make backup. Better to store all partitions, at least efs and may be modem.
The last 3 weeks we with @bonuzzz worked hard to make stable firmware for t820 and t825 tablets.
Finally, it's time for the first release.
Instructions
1. Install twrp
2. Download the zip(s) - firmware and Google Apps additional package (optional)
3. Backup all partitions (it least efs) and store somewhere - it need to do - because you can loose imei
4. Full wipe all
5. Flash firmware and gapps
Work
Almost all working

Thank to my good friend @bonuzzz
Thanks to LineageOS team
Thank you so much
I hope the ROM is always better, as soon as I have some time I install it to report any bugs
Thank you very much!!!
I really dug the samsung apps for the s-pen. is there a way to install them after installing lineageOS? (sorry for the newbie-question)
Hi,
i've installed the ROM yesterday and i used it today in case of a working day.
I have noticed that he unfortunately does not switch to LTE - despite full receipt. The tablet uses at most HSDPA, which makes the ROM for me currently not really usable.
It is also a bit slower than the stock ROM, but tolerable - only the network connection is still a hindrance.
I bought the tab because I thought, as a flagship this device will surely get the lineage OS.
I am still very enthusiastic and really thankful that someone has made such a great ROM for this tablet- many many thanks to the devs!!!
regards
Ralf
Edit: after reinstalling this ROM is found the switch to change the preferred connection type to LTE. So i go on using it

For the 820 the GPS is not working.
Can we expect the same with this 825 version?
Thanks for your efforts!!
Ok so, I gave the rom a chance and to be honest it works quite well.
Kudos to Valera and Bonuzzz for the effort, this is looking very promising.
I don't use the S-Pen nor the phone-calling stuff so, my experience with this build doesn't include those two.
General usage feels snappy, I only had some trouble while playing video streams on the stock browser and firefox. The problem went away while using chrome.
Tried a couple of HDR 4K files on MX Player and they seemed to play nicely.
Played around with the settings, everything cool.
The only problem so far is a huge battery drain during normal usage.
Aside from that, this is an excellent beginning.
Considering this is just a 1st release, it's very stable.
If you need any kind of testing, I'm more than willing to help.

Ok so, I gave the rom a chance and to be honest it works quite well.
Kudos to Valera and Bonuzzz for the effort, this is looking very promising.
I don't use the S-Pen nor the phone-calling stuff so, my experience with this build doesn't include those two.
General usage feels snappy, I only had some trouble while playing video streams on the stock browser and firefox. The problem went away while using chrome.
Tried a couple of HDR 4K files on MX Player and they seemed to play nicely.

kainanmaki,
Thanks for the initial testing. I have not flashed this ROM yet. I'm still observing a bit before I do so.
I'm curious, how do you define normal usage? Also, are you able to quantify the huge battery drain?
Thanks much!

Well, you should. At least it could give you a good idea of what to expect when the rom is ready.
I have never used lineage on a tablet so I wasn't sure what to expect.
For starters, normal use is just what you can imagine, youtube, chrome, mx player (hdr stuff), headphones, couple of silly games.
After checking how stable it was, tried Xposed -sucessfully- and every module worked fine (amplify, bootmanager, rootcloack, xnotify,youtube adaway). The drain is severe, you could literally notice the % going down ridiculously fast.
What's worst, my normal app usage and settings are designed to not duplicate what I can already do on my HTC 10.
So no GPS or Bluetooth, almost no applications doing sync stuff that I already have on my smartphone. (Gmail for e.g)
I always force wifi to sleep when display is off. Again, I don't need another device duplicating my smartphone.
LTE data is also off most of the time (and LTE works as expected per Speedtest -70 mbit-)
But again, settings are tweaked to maximize battery, while using it and while sleeping.
I have used BetterBatteryStats to take some measures, the drain is related to the core of the OS services.
A simple comparison with Stock. I just have started debloating touchwiz (very happy with the progress there too TBH), and barely scraching the surface of what can be done on stock, BBS is reporting 6.25 minutes per 1% of battery. Roughly 10 hours of battery of non stop use. After removing 85% of Samsung bloatware and its services, it's going to look even better. Samsung never ceases to amaze me with their never ending junk. So again, the rom is not ready for primetime. But that could change fast.
IMHO, you should install TWRP and do a backup of stock stuff and take a dive. Even if Lineage feels like android for smartphones, still works wonders. And you can go back to touchwiz in 3 minutes...
EDIT: Forgot to quantify the drain. The android energy forecast estimated 3-4 hours for a full charge. Closer to 3....
i wish there was developer who would give us debloated, tweaked stock rom .. i know this is not the right thread for making this post, but still

Wrong place to post as you already know, debloat the rom yourself.

Sorry Carlo, I was confused, mine is SM-T825N.
I got it wrong, when I took a look at your download mode pic it became clear.
I don't have the CROM service stuff.
Still, did you try to flash it with the FRP Lock off?

To disable FRP Lock, you have to enable OEM unlock in Developer options.
