Camera not working - T819, LineageOS 17.1 - Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good [present time of day]. forumites!
As per the title, I've installed ripee's LineageOS 17.1 ROM on my Tab S2, and everything seems to be working, bar the camera. I've seen several posts around the interwebs claiming that that is indeed a common occurance with this ROM, but most of them were somewhat dated, so I was wondering if a solution had cropped up in the meantime. Failing that, can anyone recommend a ROM with working camera? I plan to use the tablet mostly for running Linux over Linux Deploy, but a built-in camera comes handy every now and then.
Thank you all in advance.

[Q] Haven't flashed in a while, help please

I haven't updated my SCH-I800 in a while and I notice that there is now a stable "cm-9.1.0-p1c.zip" on the cyanogenmod site but also CM10 builds (cm-10-20130714-NIGHTLY-p1c.zip) as recently as last week. The forums for the I800 aren't up right now so I thought I'd ask here if these CM10s are actually functioning well or if they have lots of missing features. And as much as I dig, I seem to only find half working ROMs or extremely experimental ones that have basic things like WiFi missing. Is there a solid stock Samsung ROM and a solid AOSP ROM that everyone uses at this mater point in this tablet's lifespan?
And is there a new method for flashing at all? Or is ODIN still the way?
Thanks!!!

I have spent the last week or so trying to get an SCH-i800 to run something OTHER than the stock gingerbread well and just haven't found it yet. The closest I got was a build of CM9 but still have sporadic reboots.
It's frustrating since the only thing I want this to do is run some OBD apps for my car. The problem is that apps detect Gingerbread and run in phone mode vs. tablet mode, wasting a bunch of screen space.
Cubed has been pretty much the only non-stock rom that didn't have FC's and random reboots. I don't even use the cellular feature of this tablet - I'd be happy just disabling the modem entirely and running on wifi if it meant it being more stable.
I'm considering just getting a Nexus 7, but the problem is that this thing would need to live in my car and I don't feel like doing that with a new tablet which is why I was trying to get the i800 to work

[Q] Giving a new life to my ol' Nexus One

Hi all,
I'm trying to repurpose my Nexus One as a wifi security camera with ipwebcam. However, the camera seems like it won't work on any ROM I feed it. Now I read a lot on ROMs having broken camera support, but all of them?? I remember the camera was working perfectly before I started flashing it, so what are my options? I tried pretty much every rom available - CM7/10/11, Evervolv, TexasIce, HyperSense, and the camera is always crashing or non fonctionnal. The phone is rooted, blackrosed to partitions 260/8/168, and the recovery has 4ext touch with the sdcard partitioned to 4ext.
So, is there something I'm missing? I would love to create my own ROM that would ditch the calling/phone/3g features to make it more like a super ipcam - with flashlight support, wifi, bluetooth, and gps, but I don't have those skills.
Also, torch is also not working, if that can help.
Any help is appreciated!
I remember that IP Webcam worked with stock 2.3.6 for me. Now I have 4.4.4 (CM11 by parkedraccoon), I just installed it again and it still seems to work although it was just a short test.
Does the app crash instantly on startup or later on while streaming?

Bluetooth Metadata issues after Nougat Upgrade

Hi guys,
For those that have Bluetooth in your cars and use apps like SoundCloud, Pandora, etc., have you had issues with track information being displayed correctly?
Ever since I upgraded my Nexus 6 to nougat, the track information seems to be routed differently by the phones Bluetooth to my car's aftermarket Bluetooth receiver. Same has happened with my wife's Nexus 6 after she upgraded last week.
Both phones were working fine when on marshmallow using the same apps...Nothing else different other than upgrading to Nougat.
The only app that shows the metadata correctly on the main screen is the Play Music app. For all other 3rd part apps, I have to select "Channel List" and then I can see the track name. That was not the case with Marshmallow. All apps showed the metadata at the main screen where now it just displays some random numbers.
I know it's not the 3rd party music apps because they all display the metadata correctly when I have my work iPhone connected to my car.
Had the same problem on stock as well as Pure and Nitrogen. It's so frustrating because I don't have the slightest of clue on how I can go about figuring out what, if anything, has changed with the Bluetooth profile.
Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Ok first you need to understand a few things.
1. Just because it works on an Iphone doesnt mean anything when talking about android apps. They are completely different OSs as well as completely different apps. Built completely separately with different SDK
2. Just because it worked on the last update doesnt mean it will work on this.
As google play music works, that says they changed something in the 7.x update that broke the other apps. They will need to be updated to work with the change in the code.

Appreciate the feedback, thanks!
Yup... Definitely understand that iOS and Android are 2 complete different bases...I tested with the iPhone to make sure that the aftermarket Bluetooth receiver in the car was not the problem.
I do believe it's something that Google has changed and I'm starting to realize that the only option I may have is to wait and see.
One point I want to add is that the Nougat update did not break anything when it comes to connecting to my wife's Acura with built in Bluetooth. The track info continues to work fine..
I was hoping someone with more in depth knowledge of the Android systems maybe be able to chime in on what could have changed...I know the 3rd party apps i use have gone through multiple updates since Nougat came out so if they were gonna update something due to compatibility with Nougat, it would've happened already.

Exactly same issue here in my '15 Civic Si with Shamu, Victara, and Titan, Bluetooth metadata breaks after the first pairing/connection. Once Bluetooth is interrupted, either by shutting off car or disconnecting Bluetooth, metadata never displays again until I either clean flash ROM anew or delete the bluedroid folder contents and do the whole unpair and re-pair both audio device. Quite a pain of a workaround, and it doesn't stick either, breaks as soon as Bluetooth is interrupted again.
Since you're on Shamu, I can recommend Cyanide ROM and SIX ROM, also Pure Nexus (not sure why yours didn't work with it), I've tested a few updates of each of the three ROMs, and Bluetooth metadata worked fine. Nitrogen never worked for me either. AICP, CM, LOS, Resurrection Remix, Dirty Unicorns, Emotion OS, all break on this feature for now. Not sure how Google's own OS is running in this department, but I've seen quite a number of complaints on this issue with the 5x, 6p, both pixels, but not so much with Shamu. I've not ran Google's nougat since developer preview 5 of 7.0, and back then it was working, can definitely confirm. I just hopped on the custom ROM train ever since DU released their flavor of Nougat, and just can't or want to go back to stock vendor OS. But do try out Cyanide and SIX ROMs, they both worked flawlessly on this device. Both are packed with extra goodies too. If battery is more important, go with SIX ROM, it's by far the most fine tuned nougat ROM I've tested. You won't find it on XDA, look for it on G+ under "Frankie T (R3DS)" community. It's posted with all the direct links for proper installation. Cyanide is another amazing ROM, also another fine tuned ROM, comes with built in black theme, and good battery life (if you set the governor to interactiveX), but really smooth experience overall. SIX, by the way, uses Pure Nexus as a base platform, so just a heads up there. Personally I've used the last two pure Nexus ROM updates and had zero issues with song data displaying via Bluetooth. Make sure you clean flash the ROM, wipe dalvik cache, cache, date, and system. Leave the internal storage unchecked. If the issue persists, then backup your internal storage files/folders to an external drive/device and format the whole internal storage of your Shamu, then throw everything back on and try clean flashing, pure Nexus should work thereafter. I've even restored it as a nandroid backup a few times and had no issues. SIX ROM is pretty much a refined Pure Nexus with extra features. Give these a shot, well worth it. Let me know how it goes for you.

Wow! Thank you for the detailed feedback! Does your Si have factory nav?
Anyway, I can't tell you how many things I've tried to get this thing figured out...I also have active communication with the manufacturer of the Bluetooth unit to see if we can troubleshoot the issue..So far nothing.
This is the first time I'm hearing of SIX ROM so I'm gonna do some reading and then flash it later on in the week. I'll reply back with updates.
Thanks again!

Happy to help. No my Si doesn't have the navigation option, I just use my Shamu for that. I've finally got the attention of AICP moderator and developer at AICP G+ community, so it's looking like the Bluetooth metadata issue is a CM/LOS issue so far, they're going to look into it. I captured a logcat and pictures which are posted there under bugs+logcat. It's under AICP G+ community if you want to look at it, posted under my main Google account as Andrey K, you can check it out here: https://plus.google.com/112643646080294190790/posts/4FRbAonGT55.
As for you never hearing about SIX ROM, that's because the dev doesn't participate on XDA forums. It's a really stable nougat ROM all around, and now supports phh's root, which if paired with Magisk app, allows to hide root access from apps like Android pay and Pokemon go.
The most a manufacturer would offer is to replace the device, possibly for a fee, that won't solve your problem. Most nougat ROMs are currently experiencing this bug. Cyanide, SIX, and Pure Nexus do not have this problem, at least not on Shamu.
anyone ever come across a fix for this?

Nah, still struggling with it...I keep hoping that a new Android update will fix it but so far no luck. It used to work fine for me in Lollipop but nothing since I've upgraded to Nougat. I'm on Nexus 6. Wife has a pixel XL and had the same issue when she was on Nougat so it's not the phone. She did get the Oreo update this week so I'll try again to see if it works. If not, then this must be a compatibility issue that the adapter manufacturer may need to look at...
The annoying thing is that the metadata transfer is fine when using my work iPhone. But I hate the iPhone/Apple so I only touch that thing when I absolutely have to (work calls, work emails, etc)
Any solutions so far?
My S2 worked perfect with the Civic (only it did not import the whole phonebook). With S8 I have the whole phonebook but no metadata on tracks (still plays and controls work)

lineage os bluetooth crashing op3t

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me, I've got the lineage os installed on the one plus 3t, running almost smoothly with a few minor bugs. But there's one major I couldn't find anyone else also having it: whenever I open something related to Bluetooth, like the settings or the pebble app, the phone freezes... Any suggestions?
Yep, you're not alone. Pebble is crashing my 3T on Lineage too.
I'll have to try todays nightly, otherwise i'ts back to OOS, and a day spend in agony for nothing... (except unlocking and cleaning the thing)
But the servers are so slow, it times-out before the update is loaded...
i get the same issue on a nexus 5x making me want to move away from pebble, i have found the bluetooth works fine with my parrot system in the car and also my fitbit tracker. Makes me want to upgrade to a fitbit blaze for my smartwatch now.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T719 (gts28velte)

Can some one give me advice which custom rom can use with my Samsung Tab, I prefer Android 10 if si possible!
I need GPS, Bluetooth,WiFi and Data and Camera to work.
Current rom now is Lineage os 16.1 but some times Bluetooth drops or connects slowly (have to switch on/off several time to find/connect bluetooth devices).
Thanks in advance!
P.S. Or if some one can port Havoc or other Android 10 working roms?
I M looking for the same. let me know if you find anything, so far i m experimenting with these build but lte seems to do not work: https://lineageos.wickenberg.nu/gts28velte
Still nothing to share !
