thank you, that kernel fixed the usb issue no i am having problem either finding the right gapps or i am not installing right I have tried a few different versions the closest I came was bit gapps but it still errored out on me saying unable to mount system rw you wouldnt happen to know how I can get gapps on here do you?

When I did the initial install, the ROM from the original post included Gapps, so I didn't install anything else. When I updated using the Updater from the Settings, I found I no longer had Gapps. I installed MindtheGapps for Android 12 using TWRP, and got them back. And I needed to install the kernel fix again too. But I lost the brightness fix, and have not gotten that back yet. I have refrained from formatting the data as suggested by kbeezie.

I would suggest going with Hausemaster's suggestion, not the Updater program.

thanks I am gonna flash the lite version and try the gapps after... glad you guys keyed in when you did I was about to start over from scratch lol

Edit...

Tried that and same results... So I started from scratch... Instead of latest firmware I used the one listed in the op and installed the image from the op... no idea why wifi works this time but it does... atleast I dont have to fuss about installing gapps anymore... I appreciate your help though.

Okay after some playing around on the Rom I am in agreement that the memory management is lacking. I have experienced quite a few system freezes while playing games. I like the look of the rom but its not quite what it needs to be to become a daily. I had the worst experience with trying to get GSI to let me install gapps and feel like a day was wasted in the process. I hope this rom becomes more stable with more detailed instructions of how to get everything working. (not that the op didnt give enough) I felt there could be a bit more. I appreciate the opportunity to test the rom, so thank you for that. The stock android 12 comes out the 22nd of this month so I guess I will just wait till then and see how the stock runs. Good luck and thanks to all who have ran support in here.

Also, now that you mentioned it, I'll also go back to stock until the end of updates, as lack of volte is getting very annoying so, farewell everyone!

Hi is there any roms easy to install on samsung Tab A7 sm-t500 no Hassell. When I look the forum it seem lot of people struggling to install lineage. So does this tablet have other customs roms to install or we only have the lineage only. For those whose install lineage is it worth it. My biggest problem why i want to have more space on my 32gb storage but only remain 12 gb and didn't put to much apps. That the only reason I want to install a customs roms to have more space.

Thanks in advanced

Pixel Experience was nice, it offers a sort of "everything given" but it has all gaps installed, so, yeah, zram should be used for stability
Edit: do you know when a12 on stock rom will come out, like an exact date or something...?
