Best ROM for Galaxy Note N5110 - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

Hi,
I have an old Galaxy Note N5110 lying around and would like to revive it. What is the best ROM currently available? Currently it has Lineage 14.1 (I think...) installed.
Main Usage:
- reading and annotating PDF files
- use Mendeley to access my article database
- take notes manually and make plots/drawings
- internet access
I don't care about gaming , social networks or photos.
Cheers
Jorge

I have the same device and to my knowledge LOS 14.1 was the latest supported Custom ROM for this device. It still runs on that, but it feels a bit lagging.

Can confirm. I also have a Note 8 Tablet (N5100) and have flashed Lineagos 14.1 (many times).
There's another thread where someone was trying to flash Lineagos 16 onto the N5100/N5110, but can't seem to find it.
Will update if I find it.

Rr 585 works very well. My son is using it for videos and games. Very stable.

I haven't seen any news on it since, though

I'm interested what battery and screen time are you getting with custom roms? I have LOS 14.1 and I'm getting only about an hour of screen time with a new battery.

That's got to be a bad battery then. I regularly get a couple hours, depending on usage. Youtube not so much, reading e-books... dunno, maybe 5?

I have installed LineageOS 14.1 to this tablet and the battery usage is average to the used by the ancient Kitkat. The issue with LineageOS is about unlocking the tablet, the proccess is too laggy and you have to retry many times to unlock it. I forgot: many gestures are lost with LineageOS, for instance, to pause the youtube videos putting your hand over the screen, to take screenshots with the SPen...
Currently LineageOS allows to update the OS version to 16 (I think it is Android 9) but you have to compile it and to try to update the firmware.

Hello,
I have a samsung galaxy note 8.0 model GT-5110 tablet and I would like to update it to android 11, I just don't know what procedure to do, what characteristics the device has to meet or if I have to download a Rom.
I would like to know what you recommend me to do. Thank you very much

What's the best stable ROM for Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet N5110 in 2022-23? Kindly guide how to update. My device is running on Kitkat since then, but I have used the device very seldom. Its almost brand new ()

Need advice : Nougat or remain 6.0.1

I am using Galaxy Tab S SM-T700. Just checked and I am on 6.0.1. Would I get more speed/battery efficiency if I were to flash to nougat? I am using this tablet mainly for surfing/navigating/ebooks and watching videos, not so much on gaming. Can someone recommend any good stable release of nougat for me to flash as well? Thanks in advance!
You can give the LineageOS 14 a try now that there is an official T700 version. It's not like you have to lose anything. Just install TWRP, backup your current ROM to SD card and then flash the LineageOS and a gapps zip. If you don't like it, you can always restore the Marshmallow ROM with your data.
I don't have experience with LineageOS on the Tab S (it has ok battery life running 6.0.1, now that I disabled most standby processing unless it's plugged into charger), but the Oneplus One port of LineageOS is fast and good enough to be my daily ROM on that phone. OPO had the same problem since Marshmallow was their final release. If you're running out of storage space, perhaps LineageOS will help because its /system partition on my phone is something like 1.2GB, which is 1GB smaller than the Touchwiz /system on the tablet. On the downside, some ecommerce and streaming apps will stop working on LineageOS. Netflix no longer shows up in the play store but you can download the apk manually while Uverse app stops working flat out.

After a few months with Lineage 14, I just went back to stock MM on my T800. Everything is running smoothly, and unless something really great and stable comes along, I'll probably stay stock with root and TWRP. The only real advantage for me on Lineage was less memory used. By not re-installing loads of apps that I really wasn't using, leaves me with enough memory that will suffice. I use package disabler pro to stop bloat running. I've had this tablet for over 3 years, put in a new battery this year and I'm OK with MM until I retire it.
Sent from my SM-T800 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
linage builds have no fingerprint scanner, if that's important to you.
On most devices aosp/cm is a definate step up, on the tab s maybe not so cut and dried. Devs have to deal with so much crud introduced by Samsung , its a wonder that custom firmware exists for Samsung devices at all, hence there will always be some bugs.
The best in my opinion for this device is a stripped stock MM ( Fenris for me) , which I have been running for a while.

Any 4.4+ stable ROM for D2att?

I have a Galaxy S3 Sgh-I747 and every ROM if i install in my phone have a Snapchat issue or random boots
Please help!
What is the snapchat isdue?
I'm using an old cm11 4.4.4 build that has been rock solid, I was also getting random reboots on just about everything. I had to install an old chrome browser apk, and an older voxer. Some apps won't work with the kitkat roms, but I don't care, this rom rocks and hasn't had a single bug.

the front camera looks compressed or something
You can do nothing about it. It's a known problem with CM/Lineage on all phones degrading camera quality.
Which ROM would you recommend for daily use? That is not Slim6 because that is what I currently have and has several errors.

I recommend Mokee it's the most up to date one and it's good for daily use. Or u can find an unofficial lineage thread here in this forum.

That's what i said in the first reply, most of these roms are based on lineage and they have the same camera problem which lineage degrade. If you want the camera quality back you have to go back to stock 4.4.2.

There is a ROM that worked perfectly, the camera was fine, it is very fluid and above it is super attractive to the eye and very customizable, that ROM is MiUi 7. But there is a problem, that when it comes to start it takes a lot to do it . And it is not that bootloop because the ROM if it starts, only if I turn off the phone for any reason to turn it takes 5 to 10 minutes.
Do you have any idea of this?

For me the problem is the kernel because I installed another kernel and the problem was solved but when turning it on you could use the ROM but it had some graphic faults like that the screen was blinking, the icons were glitched, it worked fine even though it was difficult to use , but the ROM started well. Then I'm looking for AOSP kernels for android 4.4 to see which gives solution to the problem

I realize this is an earlier post, but thought I'd comment anyway! I'm not sure how many of us are out there, tinkering around with the 8+ year old Samsung Galaxy S3 i747 . While I am a newbie, I have enjoyed flashing Custom ROM's , from CyanogenMod, thru various versions of Lineage, and now CrDroid. The newest O/S that I flashed is CrDroid ( based on Android 8 ). Runs great. Stable. Long battery life.
I have always used ODIN to INSTALL a 'recovery' system such as TWRP ( which is a .Tar file )
After TWRP is installed ( using ODIN ) I unplug phone from my computer. Then boot into TWRP recovery ( holding down the three buttons ). I do a clean install (flash) of the newest O/S that I can find ( Android 4.4 is really old ). It is that .Zip file that I flash, then reboot the phone. Always works for me. Eventually I learned how to back up all my contacts, SMS, logs, photos, etc.
BTW I am totally free of Google; no Google Play Store, no Google Pay, no Google Framework, no Gapps, no Google spyware, no Google bloatware, no Google tracking etc.
I download all my apps as APK's which are readily available on the Net ( Google them . . . just kidding! ).
My older Samsung S3 i747 was a 'd2att' originally locked to Rogers, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Then switched over to MTS (Manitoba Telephone System). Now running on Bell Canada. My replacement is also a Samsung S3 i747, originally running T-Mobile in Arizona, now running on Bell Canada.
These are damn fine phones.

What ROM are you running on your S3 now? I flashed lineage 14.1 on to mine but it wont accept incoming calls. I really just need a ROM that will work for calls but I'm having trouble finding any to download, the links are either dead or all I can find is for the i9300 variant.

I am running CrDroid. Best ROM I've had yet. Ran LIneage 14.1 and it was good, but little problems such as: phone not ringing, camera problem.
I always go the extra mile & clean flash. Lately I've made the effort to back things up! Saves a lot of headache. Wish I would've learned that earlier.

Thanks but I don't see a ROM for the S3 i747 variant on CrDroid's site. Only one for the S3 Neo and I see references elsewhere to CrDroid on the i9300 which I think is the European model? But not seeing one for the d2att/d2lte version we have in Canada.
I did install Meeko on it last night which at least does accept incoming calls so that's an improvement over Lineage already.
Are you referring to the CrDroid website https://crdroid.net/ ?
There are versions for Android 8 (Oreo) & newer.
I'm pretty sure that Lineage 14.1 is Android 7 (Nougat)
Have a look at the XDA site of alexenferman : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/rom-crdroid-3-8-9-custom-rom-7-1-2-t4021787
See the part which reads:
Releases
Latest Version: V.3 2020-01-02 FINAL
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DW...T4ZNZieMwIUbAX
Then I downloaded the file: crDroidAndroid-7.1.2-20200102-d2att-v3.8.9.zip
While it says "d2att" I installed it on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Rogers version) anyway. Works great.
I also installed on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Tmobile version) T999. Also works great.
I did not install any Gapps

This is an unofficial build, on the CrDroid website, they only put the official ones, approved by them. To make official builds, you must constantly update it and have the latest version. I clearly don't have all the resources and knowledge. Anyone can compile a ROM for their device.
So if it says "Unofficial", it's not part of the Custom ROM website
And yes, you can use this build with the Canadian i747m/d2can

sm-t800 best rom

Hi guys I have a sm-t800 and the official rom is old and outdated , what's the best Rom to use to bring some more security and speed to the tablet ? And maybe get rid of all the bloatware from Samsung ? Any recommendations ?
It seems like you don't have a whole lot of choices. There is the stock MM 6.0.1 ROM or LineageOS. In my experience, LineageOS ROMs tended to have more visible bugs and hardware support issues, but then I haven't touched LineageOS ROMs for more than a year. You can certainly try both. The stock ROM has lots of bloatware. While you can't delete a lot of the apps, you can at very least try to disable almost all of the superfluous apps that come with the Samsung ROM. This improves the performance (not just CPU, but also battery) and frees up the valuable storage space.
Thanks Akopps I have installed LineageOS and it's nicer without all the Google spy software and Samsung bloatware, installed Aptoide on it for apps and works ok so far. The only thing that seems to be an issue so far is the fingerprint reader
FP Reader never worked for me satisfactory, regardless what ROM. I would also recommend:
[ROM] [AOSP] [7.1.1] [OFFICIAL] LiquidDeathOS - SM-T800 with deathly adiutor + tools on board, in case you are into tweaking. it is the best combination of function+lightweight in my eyes.
LineageOS has been working well for me on my ST-800

I really like this OS and until last week, I've had no issues. I started getting a flashing red board around my screen and response of my bluetooth keyboard has been slow. I ran the latest update but it is still happening. I'm going to check in with LineageOS to see if there is a fix.
I success to root, install lineage14 and the newest gapps on my 2 old "samsung TAB S" several times.
I can't test the auto-update now due to my lineage is brand new (Feb 2020). If there is any news I will update the document.

Lineage downloader can't connect

Dear reader,
since a couple of days my device (samsung S7: SM-G930F) is running low on battery really quick. So I thought; it has been a while since my device asked me to update the new Lineage version. So I gave the app the instruction to look for updates, and it gave me the following notification.
Can't connect to download site. Please retry later.
When actually
You device is supported by the lineageOS team, but there are no versions that support this type of publication: Nightly. (this is translated from Dutch, so actual English sentece might be different).
Switching to Snapshot instead of Nightly in the Settings didn't help.
Then when searching again for updates it gave me the message:
No source file
Request for file: lineage-14.1-20181124-nightly-herolte-signed.zip To reconstruct the last update, the zip of the app should actually be installed. Do you want to select this file manually from storage, or download the last full zip-version?
When I press: download full zip-file it gives the following:
Error during implementation. Try to refresh.
When I click on select file (from storage), and select lineage-14.1-20180927-nightly-herolte-signed.zip, it gives me the message:
You should select the right source file. But I don't have that one on my storage; it's froma different date.
Can anyone help me please?
Kind regards,
Chris

S7 is no longer officially supported by lineageOS. You can search here in XDA for unofficial ROMs.
I have no big hope that a new ROM will really solve your battery issue. Most of the the success stories are a result of a clean ROM installation.

In addition to the outstanding information that @kurtn had provided...
There's no Official LineageOS Updater Apps on the Play Store.
The reason is that they have an implemented LineageOS Updater built into the Firmware and has no need to provide any such app separately from the firmware. That would just be counterproductive to the built in Updater.
The LineageOS Updater App(s) on the Play Store is via a 3rd party developer. I'm not stating that any/all of them are either good or bad but, individuals need to know that their Unofficial and is in no way supported by the Official Lineage Team Maintainers.
Just a few (so to speak) words of advice to keep in mind. I remember asking about them (quite a while ago) and those were the types of words/thoughts by @invisiblek and @haggertk (whose a part the Official Lineage Lead Maintainers).
No lectures here... Just some friendly information for you My Friend!
Good Luck!

Hi Kurt and Ibuprophen, thanks for your answers!
Now I have finally holiday and time to actually fix things it's time to continue this
So current situation;
Phone running out of battery within half a day without frequent using, apps crashing > update definitely required.
Phone model: Samsung S7 SM-930F
LineageOS version: 14.1-20181124-NIGHTLY-herolte (so last update is over a year old)
Android version 7.1.2
Options:
1. Just reset to factory settings? Most easy option, but I think it will have negative influence when I use the phone for another year?
2. I found this unoficcial ROM https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/development/beta-lineageos-16-0-s7-herolte-t3842465, however, it doesn't include instructions and it is very technical and it speaks of Android 9 as base, which I don't have; just 7.1.2. Would that be a problem?
3. Update to 15.1 instead if that is easier?
So what would be your advice? Please bear in mind that I am a technical noob and can only follow instructions that are extremely clear & correct
Until now I haven't found instructions I felt comfortable with unfortunately.
By the way my laptop has Linux Mint Cinnamon 19.2

Oh, looks like ivan does a good job. I think it is a good idea to install his rom.
But be aware: whatever it is, that eats your battery, it can come back.
Edit: be aware: from the threads it looks like 15.1 and 16.0 are not SELinux enforcing. So the gain of security is not as high as one would expect from security patch level. So you can try a factory reset of 14.1 as well.
Do you think there is an easy, technical-illiterates-friendly way to install this version of ivan? I am not that keen to have the highest possible security.
When I am emptying the phone anyway, it seems best to me to have the most recent version (if it doesn't matter that I have android 7.1 and not android 9).

Recommended ROM to speed up my N7

I've loved my N7 2013 since I got it when it came out. It used to be unbelievably snappy, but at some point an OTA made it slow, then the next one even slower. I realised that the Facebook app kills the device so I took that off. Then I rooted the device and did a factory reset. It is less sluggish, but still a bit too slow for me.
If 6.0.1 stock, which I am running right now, is the culprit, which older stock should I go back to? I'd like to strike a balance between speed and going so far back in versions that the security risks and other trade-offs are too great.
I am prepared to also try a custom ROM but I would prefer using my tablet over fiddling with it so I'd like some advice as to which ROM (stock or otherwise) is most likely to speed up my beloved N7.
I highly recommend LineageOS 14.1. (Nougat) It was the last official version for N7 by LineageOS. Everything works on 14.1.... and it is super stable.
wileyc has an unofficial version of it. He is leaving the original build unchanged but is creating security updates almost weekly. Here is the link to his posting:

Thanks Tam, looks like a good contender. If one wants to regularly flash these updates for security, am I right in saying that each time the device is wiped, or can you avoid losing your configuration and apps? Is there a clever way to avoid a lot of hassle with backup/restore and reconfiguring your device each time?

Edit. Hi Lief, I mis-advised (hazzards of being a noob giving advice). You will actually have to do a clean install of lineage 14.1. Meaning that you will have to reinstall all of your apps and settings.... On a plus side there is virtually no bloat in Lineage 14.1, and there is something to be said for how well your N7 will run with a fresh install.
Sorry for the misinformation
Leif, You are correct. Nothing changes with your apps or configuration.
Just download the update/latest build to your device and install with TWRP. VOILA! Done. Pretty hassle free.

Does anyone know if the 14.1 build supports HDMI via Slimport like stock does?

I can confirm that the answer is yes - LineageOS 14.1 on deb (LTE) does support video out via the USB port and a Slimport adapter.

Is there a similarly updated build for the LTE version?
Edit: NM, found the deb builds by replacing "flo" with "deb"!

Lineage OS 14.1 vs 17.1 (Flo)
Hi guys,
I'm on lineage os 17.1 , Nexus 7 2013 Flo (32gb) , I remember having issues with bluetooth on 14.1 ( sisaxis controller ) and that's why I upgraded to 17.1.
It's a little bit laggy but nothing serious.
Hope that Can help.
