Alrighty it worked, thank you all for helping and thanks Andi for building it!
It feels really snappy will try with some apps installed
Camera is broken and keyboard appears when i remove app from recents :?
Nevertheless I hope someone continues this (or maybe Oreo Go considering normal Oreo will be too heavy for 1 gig RAM)
Edit - Cant install app from Apps nor can download apksā¦
I cannot download the files like when i click download on the Apps it crashes and in browser it says network failure (I am connected to wifi and all websites open normally)
While Iām still going on in using /e/ on my old tablet and being pretty happy with it, today I discovered the GPS isnāt working, at least with the following app: Here WeGo.
Is there any alternative way to check if this is App related?
Thanks!
Iām getting loads of āChoreographer: Skipped XXX frames! The application may be doing too much work on its main thread.ā (with XXX regularly ranging in the 300-range) in logcat.
After further testing and (clean) reflashing the ROM, I came to the conclusion that rooting status has nothing to do : sluggishness is random. Sometimes the tablet is fine (rarely), sometimes itās slow (often), sometimes is sluggish as hell (often)ā¦ but rooting makes it much worse and frequent.
Also, only the UI seems unresponsive : for instance, network operations seem to behave at normal, if modest, speed.
I confirm getting the same issue with a very slow device, nearly unresponsive. And what I donāt understand is that the Tab2 which was fluent became very slow just after a few days without installaing any additionnal application. And even a complete reflash did not solve the issue this time. @breversa : this has effectively nothing to do with root access.
Sorry - itās out of my league Iām afraid. The latest official LineageOS build I can find is Android 6 āmarshmallowā, so there would - I guess - have to be some work getting it to build for android 7 / Nougat.
I have no idea how to go about doing that, and I donāt really have the time (or the motivation to be honest) to find out what would be involved. And Iām quite busy at the moment with devices which may or may not get official builds sometime soon (soon-ish, maybe )
It would be a great project for someone who owns one of these devices and wants to find a[out abut building ROMs
Sorry!
EDIT: OK, Iāve found the lineage repo which is CM-14 which I think is nougat. There also appear to be a Muppets repo with the proprietary blobs in.
So all a potential builder would need to do is cobble together a manifest - @Android-Andi might be able to help with that - persuade it to build, and then debug it when it doesnāt work
Like I said, an interesting project for someone, but not for me. If anyone does pick it up, Iām happy to help test anything that gets built. I own a 7" version, though I havenāt touched it since I installed @Android-Andiās last build.
Sorry folksā¦its out of my league also.
Iāve tried it, but making this nougat rom requires a very different build environment than Iām used to now.
I have the same performance issue here. Just flashed recovery version āespresso-common_TWRP_3.3.0-2ā recommended below and the āe-0.9-n-20200618-1754-UNOFFICIAL-espressowifiā, but the performance is very very slow and sometimes frozen as well.
Before that I was using Lineage OS Android 4.4 and the performance was normal.
I wonder what could it be that causes this performance penalty on /e/ OS e-0.9-n-20200618. Could it be the NAND storage with lots of dead cells? Could it be a rogue background process hitting the storage/CPU?
This severe slowness remembers me when on a PC Windows is indexing/hitting the HD hard on the background and everything else slows to a crawlā¦
Is there any āshow resource utilizationā option on the Developer Options screen or something like that?
I am really intrigued that some people experience a snappy performance on the same hardware with the same ROMā¦
