Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 10.4 2020 (LTE) SM-T505

Device CodeName: gta4l
Version of Stock which existed previously: T505XXS7CXB1 Binary BIT-7 (seven)
The device is Not rooted

The installer does not recognize the existing stock Android 12 firmware (binary 7). Therefore, the /e/ installation process of e-2.0-t-20240508399779-dev-gta4l.zip is aborted with the following message, although stock firmware Android 12 is installed::

The same error message is displayed when trying to install with Stock Android 12 firmware BINARY-7:

• e-1.21-t-20240324389105-dev-gta4l
• lineage-21.0-20240506-microG-gta4l
• lineage-21.0-20240510-nightly-gts4lv-signed

@Xxpsilon

The bug was recognized and corrected by the LineageOS Android Distribution (LOS) and since version lineage-21.0-20240517-nightly-gts4lv-signed a problem-free installation is possible again.

Please keep an eye on the d/e/v team
