I'm actually curious about this as well, I have been looking for such a rom and it seems like there is none for t810.

If there are any custom Oreo ROMs for our T-810, they are a very well kept secret.

the lead developer @T_I had some life stuff come up, and hasn't had a chance to look at bringing up the 810 to Oreo yet. Wish I knew enough to figure out how to help out with it.

anks, thank you for the information.
It just baffled me as to why there were no O roms at all.
I have 8.1 running on a Nexus 7 2013 and a Nexus 6 and those devices are ancient.

Indeed, I'm battling with a concussion, very limiting my screen time. Also, to be honest, @RaymanFX is the lead developer for the 2015 Tab S2 models, I just managed to adapt his code for the T810 (not to difficult) and the T710/5 (bigger challenge, still needs a lot of work).
My prio at this point is to get the T710/5 functioning before putting time in, unless RaymanFX wants to start work on Oreo for the T815, then I can test the other devices. (alas, no real work for a while, just barely managing to get 4h of work in a day)

@bonuzzz it'd be great to see the sources. The 810 is similar enough to the 710 that porting should be fairly straightforward

hi, not to open a new thread:
but official there is also Nougat 7.1 for the S2 2015 version.
Can i flash this and root it per superSu?
Is there any custom kernal avialble?
or better an "original" Rom just moded?
thanks for answers in advance
adddy2

The answer is quite easy.
CustomROMs would be easier to create if there'd be an official Oreo ROM from Samsung. The SM-T810 is still on Nougat (I got a "new" update a couple of days ago, which only "updated" the security patch level...).
Since Samsung released the S3 Tablet, there won't be any effort spend into developing an official Oreo Rom in this "older" Tablet, imo. The SM-T810 has an Exynos 5433 CPU (and not a Qualcomm), which means we're facing closed-source and therefore smooth and fully working CustomROMs won't be very likely.

The question is: Why do you want a custom ROM at all?
The stock Nougat ROM can be debloated (e. g. via Neked Maker), rooted, Xposed can be installed.
All is working fine, and you can customize it very much.
What feature are you looking for in a custom ROM which isn't possible with stock ROM??

There's no stock Oreo rom. For me, it's not that I want a custom rom, it's more that I want an Oreo rom.

Actually possessor of a T715 Tab S2. I saw someone managed to build an Oreo rom for T710, if the rom will come also for the sim variant it will be really great! We have to forget about samsung spending time for "old" devices....Instead thanks all the developers teying to get the best out of this tab and updating it.
P.s give me a working fingerprint and i'll give you mi life lol

[Q] can someone teach me how to build a ROM

My friend owns an samsung galaxy tab 4 t-230 and would love to upgrade it into a more pure android. Since i kind of got into android ROMs and there are no AOSP or CM roms for the tab 4 t-230 this would be a great chance for me to build a AOSP or CM rom. I have ubuntu 14.10 and a decent enough pc with 16 gb of ram and an i7. If anyone could help me abit of how to build a AOSP or CM rom for the device i would be verry thankfull.
----------------------Edit-----------------------
I wanted to say thank to you guys! I did quite some progress by now. If you own a t230 / nu then feel free to check out my custom kernel

Relevant post - some starting info, and check out the CM wiki he links to. Also, and this is a very basic step, but if you've never done this before it can be informative: download a rom zip file (preferably but not necessarily a stock-based kitkat rom for this device) and open it up in either 7zip or WinRar, check out the layout and structure, and familiarize yourself with the updater-script. (Actually you can do that with a firmware tar file too). Sorry I can't give you any more useful info, not a dev, definitely not a rom designer, just a guy who knows a fair amount of android stuff.
Also don't let the tone of that post discourage you; the poster was answering a guy who was basically asking about the feasibility of building a brand new rom for the sole purpose of being able to use one particular proprietary Samsung app. Yes it is difficult, but still doable, and you say you're motivated...
Yes i did forgot to say that any links for learning are appriciated
Well.. I would ask moonbutt74 for more info regarding commands and such, probably more info than I can give but.. keep in mind your going to have to download about 20+GB of source code and all that. Also a bunch more knowledge of more things I don't remember. But it is alot

Well I decided to revisit this thread. Never thought I would come so far. I really want to say thanks to all of you who supported me and still support me. Everyone has a beginning and here was mine. Now I am actually there where I really wanted to be. Releasing a custom kernel and finally work on a custom ROM! Thank you XDA!

Also I thank you my life for introducing me to moonbutt74. He learned me everything from how to work with custom kernels to Roms. Sadly he decided to stop developing a few Werks ago but he's doing it for his own good. I still will mention @moonbutt74 on my future projects because he really is the one who changed me from confused to knowing what is actually going on. So thanks allot !

Offical TWRP

Hello all,
Can any dev actually make official TWRP for Redmi 3s. I know cofface and the other guy made TWRPs but they aren't official.
So if anyone who knows Chinese can either contact those devs and ask for them to develop twrp officially.
Or if any one can actually develop an official version for our device.
Kind regards all
Official means if TWRP devs work on it
I don't think they've that much time to work on such devices
Instead they make it for premium phone.
And it's not hard to port TWRP if you've the original one
Please read the official twrp site, they only need sources, once the twrp is built for a device.
Redmi 3, redmi 1s, redmi note 2 all have official twrp
Oh come on people, this is the first step to official custom ROMs
can anyone tell me what is stopping them to make official TWRP for so long? every single device has it even redmi 1s redmi 3 and redmi note
Well I'm guessing that the devs are contemt with the cofface and flou twrps, but it would still be nice if we got the attention of somebody, who knows how to build a recovery and make it official.
I would do it, but I would need to learn from scratch and it would probably take to long
Devs pls help
I never really understood why people are unsatisfied with unofficial builds, as long as they work without any issues

there is the reason they are unofficial,it all depends on one person ro maintain regular updates,no regular fixes less room to work with and btw not a single build so far is bugless or stable on our device so maybe that is why. No one fixed dark video in camera recording so far for almost 3 months with kernel source out.
So no one with a bit of knowledge is willing to to do this. I'll try to make a build, but cannot guarantee I'll successed

What is the difference between official and unofficial as they are working the same.

Official is when TWRP acknowledged it as trusty
i.e.: an Official build is updated every week, month, and is always upgraded to the next level of android, or not. (Redmi 3 still has 5.1 TWRP official, but no 6.0)
Unofficial is when it wasn't acknowledged, so a developer/user built it from scratch, and it gets only updated once, or twice, It depends on the user/developer itself.
Once I get my 3S finally (possibly after 2 weeks), I'll try to make a bugless TWRP
The TWRP we are using is basically a port (I couldn't find anywhere else the sources for Redmi 3S TWRP)
Given by how Kenzo is similar to Land, I have made a semi-working TWRP tree
https://github.com/Kizoky/android_device_xiaomi_land
It needs a pre-built kernel, which is obviously based on Stock or CM (Stock would be the best)
https://github.com/Kizoky/android_device_xiaomi_land/blob/android-6.0/BoardConfig.mk
It is lined out here.
Also, If some of you found some bugs within this tree just let me know
I won't make it as a seperate thread unless It is fully functional
Yey, thank you @Kizoky

Looking for OSS roms for T810

Hi
I'd like to remove google/samsung bloatware from my old Galaxy Tab S2 but it looks like LineageOS is not supporting it anymore. It is possible to find something like an old build? I don't feel good enough to build it from source code.
Any other alternatives? It looks like Replicant also does not support it.
Thanks

Any updates on SM-T230 Android ports?

This poor device has been stuck on touchwiz 4.4.4 for a very long time, it would be great if somebody tried to port a good rom to it.
Please reply with updates, if there's any.

Android 10 should work with some optimization- porting the kernel to a relatively new version would likely be the hardest part.

How complicated is it to slim down the builds as much as possible?
I don't see needing all the extra TouchWiz crap that this device barely supports and had survived using Link2SD for storage. Something stable supporting at least basic apps is all I need, and most of those (Gmail, Chrome, etc) are now available from play store.

Hi, my advice is starting by taking sources from other variants (you can find them in GitHub S3NEO organization) and editing sources by starting from that base. For the kernel, it shouldn't be difficult to make a defconfig by always looking in matisse and millet ones. I advice you to start from Android 9 (lineage-16.0 branches) since they are the most stable. If you are really interested to work, you can write me in Telegram (same username as xda profile) and I can write you something more about what you should do.
Android 8, 9 or 10 will be nice, but right now I will be happy with Android 5. Are there any ROMs for degas higher than 4.4.4?
Are there any true Android 5 or Android 7 ROMs for this device?

Newer Android for Galaxy Tab S2 10.1

@Android-Andi could you please provide a guide for building a ROM for this device to compile and create an Android Go version or keep updated your excellent job? I would like to contribute, thank you.
Firstly this isnt Galaxy Tab S2 this is Galaxy Tab 2
Next he isnt obliged to do that! There are tons of tutorials available on internet as well as on XDA
Iirc Andi left development and we should be thankful to him for keeping our tab alive
I myself am trying to upstream kernel if i succeed we might get new android versions
Well this is great news! I have minor problems on my tab 10.1 and 7.0 like it being sometimes very slow which is common for android 7 unfortunately. I wish both of you the best of luck!

Why does official lineageos not support the galaxy tab 2?
