Project Treble

When will this device get project Treble support..? Or is there any way to do it manually (unofficial)?
Nope, it doesn't have the partitions for Project Treble to work natively.
Devices launched by Manufacturer with 8.0 and above are Official Treble Supported

although it doesn't have partition to support treble officially but we can use oem partition for vendor partition. vache brings project treble for moto g5 plus now i am running pure aosp GSI on my moto g5 plus.
its possible but your device must have really great dev like vache.

Galaxy tab a T510 Custom Rom

Now that we can unlock the bootloader and root the galaxy tab a T510 It would be cool to see custom roms developed for it
I would love to see AOSP android running on the T510
Is there anyone in the custom rom development able to do
Does nobody want to see a custom rom on this device
I'm Interested too !! A debloated Rom please !!!!!
I posted my TWRP build here, so I'm hoping that enables more custom ROM development for the SM-T510. Unfortunately, my initial attempts with GSIs were unsuccessful, even with NoKnox to disable most of the Samsung security features. Seems I'm still missing something, but Galaxy S10 owners have had some success after making minor changes to the generic image.
Has anyone tried this GSI guide for the Galaxy A8, which shares the same Exynos 7885? It's got the rw-system.sh fix noted above.
I may purchase.this very soon. I have high hopes for this device getting lineage
Would love to see a custom firmware release as there's only a 32 bit version of android and I'd like to get 64 bit support. Great little tablet aside from that downside
Interesting note here in the @phhusson's Treble Wiki:
Why should I use GSI for A/B devices to some A-only devices? : On Android 9, Google changed the requirements and all devices shipped with Android 9 must use "system-as-root". Before this change, only A/B devices were system-as-root and GSI name was separated by A-only and A/B. For this historical reasons, you have to use GSI for A/B on the devices shipped with Android 9+.
So, I'm thinking that we should be using ARM for A/B...and not many custom GSI ROMs are built for that target.
Okay, I had some limited success with the latest AOSP 9.0 GSI build from @phhusson. The note above from his Wiki was spot on: We need an ARM A/B configuration for the SM-T510/T515...which is unfortunately a rare combination. You must also this updated /system/bin/rw-system.sh script. I used the build with GApps (system-arm32_binder64-ab-gapps-su.img.xz), but this generates a ton of error notifications because the device is not Play Protect certified.
We're getting much closer, though.
Okay, here's a quick-n-dirty custom ROM build based on the AOSP 9.0 GSI mentioned above: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...om-nexus-stock-2019-galaxy-tab-10-1-t3944222/

F2FS

Hi,I wanted to ask if the S10 will get F2FS support officially or unofficially.The Note 10 has it so it should work on S10 too.
S10 F2FS
I have read that it is possible to switch to F2FS flashing a file but that it formats the memory of the device so probably the samsung will not release anything official for the "old" devices

Question about a6+ support rom

Should Galaxy a6+ only use binder64 or a64 GSi ROM?
Although SOC is 64-bit, without custom vendor you won't be able to use arm64 GSI. Stock vendor is arm32_binder64 (a64), so such images you have to flash.

Regarding GSI Lineage OS 20

Has anyone here ever tried GSI Lineage OS 20? Here's the forum for Treble-based devices https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/gsi-13-lineageos-20-trebledroid-based.4517345/ . I know that Galaxy A71 has Project Treble support (VNDK 30.0 bundled alongside with it). I believe this is useful for our device because Samsung will never upgrade this phone with OS later than Android 13.
