[Device Roadmap] Android 9 (Pie) & 10 (Q) : Test builds to support new devices

In continuation to the Device Roadmap Plan and alongside the list of Test builds to upgrade currently supported devices, we will be sharing in this thread test builds of new devices for which we will share test builds made on the /e/ build infrastructure.

  • Please note this list has tablets as well !!!
  • More devices can be added to this list
  • If LineageOS Q builds are available for these devices they will also get the /e/OS Q build when it will be ready. We expect the /e/OS Q builds to roll out by Q3 of 2020.

In case you have one of these devices please feel free to download and test them and most important of all share your feedback if these devices work with /e/OS.

  • As always make a backup of your data before doing any flashing.

Watch out !!! The tablet builds are also getting updated in the list above. Would be interesting to get some feedback of /e/ running on these tablets.
One issue you could face is the Bliss Launcher not working on the tablets… the solution to this would be to install any other launcher of your choice.

Installed on my Samsung tablet gts210vewifi and it works OK. I suggest you remove Messages app in the final build though; it’s unnecessary on a tablet. Also, I wonder, when there’s an update, will I get it OTA or via manual flash?

Hope to get the next set of builds for all device - phones and Tablets OTA .
Maybe around mid of next month or once the security patches are applied to the code.

OPPO R5s works pretty well, thanks.

text messages and calls – works
wi-fi, mobile data, bluetooth – works
gps, camera – works

Unfortunately, the encryption doesn’t work, but it never worked on R5s

Base: lineage-16.0-20200719-nightly
TWRP: twrp-3.2.3-20190321-r5 (from LineageOS install guide.)

Installation from LineageOS:
Reboot to recovery
Wipe > Format Data > yes
Wipe > Advanced Wipe > select Dalvik / ART Cache, Cache, System > Swipe to Wipe
Advanced > ADB Sideload > Swipe to Start Sideload

on computer:
adb sideload e-0.9-p-2020072364221-test-r5.zip

A first use of the ROM with the Bliss Launcher went without problems. The icons are too small for a 9.7 inch tablet for my eyes. Functionally everything is okay.

On recommendation of argon3030 I installed the OpenLauncher as the F-Droid Store. I like the bigger OpenLauncher icons optically better.


The BlissLauncher icons might look better on the 8.0 inches gts28vewifi. Unfortunately there are no official LineageOS ROMs for Galaxy Tab S2 with LTE and phone function.

For the Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 LTE SM-T815 an “unoffical” LOS 14.1 with security patches July 5, 2020, which has been maintained for years, is available.

Running like a breeze on my Lenovo tablet (YTX703L)
As a launcher to get the horizontal view i can recommend Total Launcher.

Z3 Compact and TWRP 3.0.2-1

Note before reading : I am french, first try installing a alternative ROM (so technical english can be difficult for me to understand)

I tried to manage e/ installation and I was on lineageos unofficial 17.1 (Q android). Impossible to manage the installation ; error message E3004 “this package is for device: z3c; this device is .”

I find few posts on the internet with the same error but no solution mentioned (or not understandable to me)

I will be happy to try the e/ if anyone as an idea ?

Now back to my back up

Many thanks

Hi @Rik Was this TWRP for your smartphone …which ROM did you test?

hi Manoj, no the TWRP was for my tablet, see here , the ROM i tested was the build above in your first post in the thread for the YTX703L
For my phone I reported the TWRP here, device is a3xelte, the ROM i tested there was the a3xelte ROM in your first post of that thread

PS still running both and both still running (very) smoothly

Thanks @Rik I wanted to run a test to check if the next builds can be delivered OTA …will run a build for the YTX703L and the a3xelte and later you should get it OTA. Wanted to check if OTA will work on these two devices before setting it on for all the 48 device builds.
You should see a build update OTA in a few hours.

Hi @Rik,

I restarted the OTA server. Could you please let me know if you are now able to see the update? Thank you in advance!

ASUS Zenfone Max Pro M2 - X01BD

VERSION TESTED:

e-0.9-p-2020072263916-test-X01BD

WHAT WORKS:

VOLTE, Call, Text Message, WiFi, HotSpot, Mobile Data, Bluetooth, GPS, Camera, Flash, Turbo Charging, FM Radio.

WHAT DOES NOT WORK:

  • Torch app is missing.

  • /e/Drive sync is not working. Files, Documents and Pictures are not syncing with /e/Cloud. But Contacts, Calendar, Notes and Tasks is syncing perfectly.

  • App store sometimes fail to download apps.

  • Bliss Launcher sometimes creates two launcher icons (Duplicate Icons) of single app, removing one icon leads to uninstalling the whole app.

  • Some icons in system settings are missing, e.g. Location, Phone and Storage Permission icons in App Permissions window.

  • Banking apps do not work due to rooted device status. On LineageOS + MicroG those Banking apps work fine.
    Note:- Magisk has not been flashed.

I would love to see this phone getting official support for /e/OS. So please do tell me if there is anything else I can help you with.
