A little 8.4-inch tablet — a Samsung Galaxy Tab S (SM-T700) from 2014 — was my mom’s faithful companion for many years, especially while travelling. A couple of days ago, I decided to give it a second life with the LineageOS 21 build by retiredtab, published on 17/07/2026. The installation went flawlessly, it boots incredibly fast, and it runs like a clock. And this is actually only the second device I’ve ever flashed!!! 😁 I’ve also installed a carefully selected set of lightweight, open-source apps, tailored to my mother’s needs. I bet Lady Fakir — former and illustrious CB DX’er back in the early ’80s — will think it’s the neatest device she has ever owned! 😁 ✨ WELCOME to the wonderful world of OPEN SOURCE, Mom! ✨🌍 73 & TNX, retiredtab, FER THIS GREAT BUILD!!! 📻💚

I just installed Lineage OS on my Samsung SM-T380. it was amazing being able to take a tablet that was this old and make it modern again. Unfortunately I did run into a couple of bugs and I don't know how to reach out to the developer/maintainer so I'm going to put some information here in hopes that they see it. SM-T380 / gta2swifi — LineageOS 22.2 (20260602) camera failure Both front and rear cameras are unavailable. Multiple camera applications report no usable camera. dumpsys media.camera reports: Number of camera devices: 0 cameraserver itself is running. The vendor image contains: /vendor/lib/hw/camera.msm8937.so and /vendor/etc/vintf/manifest.xml declares: android.hardware.camera.provider @2.4::ICameraProvider/legacy/0 However, /vendor/etc/init/hw/init.target.rc defines the legacy Qualcomm camera service as: service qcamerasvr /system/vendor/bin/mm-qcamera-daemon but /system/vendor/bin/mm-qcamera-daemon does not exist. getprop init.svc.qcamerasvr returns nothing, and lshal shows no registered android.hardware.camera.provider. It therefore appears that the 22.2 package contains the camera HAL/configuration but is missing mm-qcamera-daemon, preventing the camera provider from starting and resulting in zero cameras being exposed to Android. Also, there is a Wi-Fi issue. The build works perfectly on WPA2, but the old vendor Wi-Fi stack fails when Lineage selects WPA3/SAE on a transition-mode network.

I installed Lineage 20 onto my t350 samsung tab A. I got it installed, but it just crashes a few minutes into being started up.

Thank you so much for keeping mine T813 alive!

Installed LineageOS on my Galaxy Tab E many times., even back when it started with nougat (LOS14). Now we're up to 19! Thank you for your dedication to my little tablet!
