Has anyone got "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" to work? I am able to toggle portable wifi tethering set it up and connect but will pull no data .
UPDATE
Got it to work after installing Sqlite editor from GPS.
Instructions: Open Sqlite editor navigate to data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db > click on Global > add string Setting.db addition of tether_dun_required value 0
Then open root explorer and open build.prop add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true to bottom
Reboot=Profit

Have you also added the line
tether_dun_required
Value=0
To the settings database in data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases under the global tab
I'm going to try this for t mobile hope it works
It jas been mentioned before that tmobile users need to only modify the settings database. There is a thread that mentions these details 3 or 4 pages back...

doesn't the build.prop trick do the job as well?
For sprint device i did both with successful results.
For Sprint, I only added tether_dun_required, rebooted and it worked. This was after I factory reset, however. It didn't work before that for an unknown reason.

What app did you guys use to edit the database?

Sqlite editor. I can try and create a flashable zip that does the same thing sometime today so it's easier for everybody. I'd have to test it myself of course.

Thanks to everyone here!
Mods Can you move to General section please.
Hey all. Are you guys using the Nexus 6 from the GPS or from Sprint? I got mine from Sprint, rooted and added lines to setting.db and build.prop factory reset and still can't even toggle Portable Wifi without getting Tethering or Hotspot Error....
My next task is to flash the factory rom direct from dev.google
I am unable to Wi-FI tether even after doing both tether_dun_required and the net.tether.noprovisioning in the build.prop. Bought straight from GPS, so not sure what I am doing wrong :/
EDIT:
It was a typo by me, the actual string is "net.tethering.noprovisioning"... "tethering" not "tether" after fixing this, all works well. I'd advise anyone struggling to just give spelling another check.

Hey all,
So I had to edit the two files in a specific order. Here's what worked for me on a Sprint Nexus 6.
- Root device
- add the additional line for build.prop
- factory reset
- check to see if you can toggle WiFi tether/hotspot from settings [if so continue]
- add line value to settings.db
- soft reboot
Hope it works.

great write up, i make it work using the directions provided..!
now anyone can make a mod for this? like APK or flushable zip?

Just to share what worked for me. It wasn't working for me initially on a Sprint N6 either, but I really didn't want to factory reset. I was able to just recreate the steps you did but replacing the factory reset with a soft reboot and now it's working.
Since I had already made the changes unsuccessfully, I did have to delete then re-add the entries since it does seem to matter the order they were done.
**edit: welp, Nevermind. It worked a few times but now I'm back to seeing the error saying I may not be subscribed.
**edit #2: I had the letter t in "true" capitalized. Changed it to lower case, reboot and it's been working for two days!
For those that don't want to edit files (but don't mind spending a couple bucks)... I can confirm that "WiFi Tether Router" app is working as well.
Settings for the N6, as provided by the dev:
Interface wlan0
Method 2
Channel 1
Encryption wpa2-psk
"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED
Verify those, reboot, then open and enable (Root required for it to reset the radio).
*Edit: clarity
From what I could gather from the thread and personal trial and error, this is what worked for me.
1. Unlock
2. Root
3. Download root explorer and sqlite editor
4. Open sqlite editor
4.a - under the files tab navigate to "data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db/global"
4.b - click the + symbol to add a new entry
4.c - In name section put "tether_dun_required" all lower case exactly as it appears here.
4.d - In value section put "0" thats the number zero.
4.e - click save and exit program.
5 Open root explorer
5.a - Under the root tab browse to "/system"
5.b - long press on file "build.prop" choose "open in text editor" choose "yes" to remount as read-write and continue
5.c - add this as a new line to the bottom of the file "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" all lower case exactly as it appears here. Just 1 uppercase letter here can make it not work.
5.d - save and exit
6 Reboot
7 Native tethering should work now.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I missed anything. Typed this up on my Nexus 9 tethered from my Nexus 6. :laugh:
Thanks for this. Worked perfect for me.

This is what i did and worked for me and i only had to edit build.prop using the phone. I'm sure that it will work for everyone else. I'm also wondering if there is a way to edit/add the line we need for build.prop without having to root? something like "build.prop net.tethering.noprovisioning=True" in adb shell and it will add the line for us? hope someone can answer this for me please.
1. Enable developer mode (Go to Settings -> About phone, and click on the build number until the developer mode is enabled).
2. Enable USB debugging under Settings -> Developer options
3. Connect the device with a USB cable to a computer with the Android SDK platform tools installed
4. Start an adb shell: adb shell
5. In the adb shell, run this command: settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Edit the Build.Prop
6. Then open root explorer and open build.prop add net.tethering.noprovisioning=True to bottom
Thanks for the info. It works using Cricket sim

There are many user that are facing No connection Problems on Google Play Store . Also sync is also stopped and this happens many times :crying: after resolving it.
So here is a quick guide to FIX/ SOLVE it :
REQUIREMENTS:
1. Rooted Android Phone if not you may find guides on or XDA.
2.Root Browser or ES File Manager :angel:
3.Brain (of course)
Steps to follow:
1. Open Root Browser grant SuperSU permission.
2. Go to "/ " or root directory.
3. Open etc folder, where you will find "host" file
4. Copy that file to some where and open it as TEXT FILE
5. Now erase all the text there type or paste " 127.0.0.1 localhost " without quotes.
6. Just Save it.
7. Now open your Play Store or Sync your Account. It will work!!!
Also see that if you have installed Freedom, then uninstall it and then install it again.
Hit Like if worked :good:

Easy fix after nothing worked
A lot of people are missing a simple trick.
It is well known to try clearing cache but most importantly the date and time is correct.
BUT you MUST have the date and time correct over your mobile network, not your wifi network, for it to be definitely correct.
SO switch off wifi and connect mobile data to get correct dat time set.
Use Google DNS address in PC ethernet settings , restart router.
Than in phone clear playstore data and cache,clear downlaod manager data and cache,
Restart phone
download any app from playstore, it will wont show any downloading status till 5 mins but will start automatically by then. good luck.
not helping
Guys, i have tried deleting hosts file , putting # in front of ip address and any other possible way available over internet but not able to access playstore or google apps by my wifi although I can access them using my cellular data. Why is this happenning:crying:

If it is solved enjoy it
After weeks of hard work we (Setmov and uncle Fab) proudly present you the first Una ROM for the galaxy Tab 7.0 Lite AKA SM-T11, based on 4.2.2 XXUANB2.
DISCLAIMER
As usual, your phone your responsability, we won't take any responsability if it flies out of the window or if your girlfriend/boyfriend runs away with it.
PLEASE, DO READ OP COMPLETELY AND CAREFULLY BEFORE ASKING ANY QUESTIONS, ANSWERS TO MOST PROBLEMS ARE THERE
WHAT IS UNA?
UNA is a new concept that takes security to a new level.
Are you tired of seeing so much blatant, outrageous and shameless invasion of your privacy and data mining hidden behind nice sentences like "enhanced use experience" or "complete integration with the system"? We decided to develop secure ROMs where privacy means just that – Private!.
It’s free of charge, we are a non profit structure and we are not here to make big bucks
WHAT UNA ISN'T
UNA isn't a way to help you stealthily buy massive destruction weapons to foment a coup d'etat in your favorite banana republic or to prepare the third world war.
UNA secures what leaves from your phone (ie your personnal data doesn't leak and no app can look over your shoulder to spy your activities), but it can't completely secure what comes into your phone.
Why is that?
Because it's just not possible to fully secure a phone from what comes into it, and anyone claiming to be able to do it is either a liar, or an ignorant, or both.
There are too many attacks, some not well documented, if documented at all, and some unknown to the public, and there are too many ways to hack a phone, especially if the user doesn't use his/her common sense.
If you are the type of person that installs apps from shaddy source and/or warez web sites (sites offering cracked paid apps) chances are that at some point you will unknowingly install a malware or a spyware. The same applies if you click on any link, specially on SMS' and emails, if you let any pop out window appear or if you don't protect your lockscreen with a password/pin/pattern and let anyone get physical access to your phone.
A bit of judgment and common sense can save you a lot of trouble, but there's unfortunately nothing UNA can do about it.
Then, if you use your phone to call through GSM your provider will know where you are. If he didn't you wouldn't be able to make any call, the signal has to find you and there's nothing UNA or anyone can do about it.
The only way to prevent that is to disable the phone functions (but then your phone will turn into a wifi only device) and reenable them when needed, head to the scripts section to learn how to do it.
Last but not least, bear in mind that the agencies have armies of tech savvy henchmen and 10 storeys computers, and tricks we can't even imagine, so think twice and use your brain before you attempt to outsmart them...
UNA IS FOR YOU IF
. You are willing to learn how to use an unconventional ROM and generally speaking to understand how things work, even if it sometimes requires a little effort to fix this or that little problem (bear in mind that it took us a lot of work to develop Una to where it is now),
. You don't mind a few little occasional bugs here and there that come from all the restrictions the ROM contains,
. You want to take back ownership of your phone from google’s claws.
UNA IS NOT FOR YOU IF
. All that you care about is the latest gimmick in the latest OS,
. You can't live without the google’s apps,
. You are the kind of person that never reads through the OP and only scroll down to the download section, and then complain that things don't work and/or ask stupid questions that are answered in OP.
An example? One guy makes a mod and writes clearly in OP that it's specifically for 4.2.2. Then some people complain: "it doesn't work on 4.4.2"...
ARE WE PARANOID TIN FOIL HATS? OR TERRORISTS? OR CARTEL BOSSES?
Nope, we only are people that don't see why we shouldn't be in control of our phones. Or why our phones can be wiped remotely, why apps or updates or who knows what can be downloaded and installed without asking for our consent, why SMS' can be sent without us to know, why we should pay for the bandwidth used for data mining and unwanted downloads, and why all those activities should deplete our battery and kill our RAM.
You think we are overreacting here?
You don't have to take our word for it, just download and install Network Log from here:
https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=network+log&fdid=com.googlecode.networklog
Give it root permission, start logging and open some web pages. Come back to Network Log after a few minutes and see for yourself, you'll be surprised (or maybe horrified?) to find out that your android system, your settings, your kernel etc. connect to all sorts of funny IPs, including and foremost google’s.
Now you see what we mean?
It's time to go for Una
UNA'S FEATURES
. Rooted.
. Deodexed.
. Zipaligned.
. Busybox and sqlite installed.
. Init.d support and scripts.
. Auto start disabled for most apps.
. About 150 system apps, 45 framework jars, 15 permissions xmls and 65 libs removed, plus files here and there.
. Very low RAM and CPU consumption, more than 8 hours screen time with the WIFI on.
. Heavily and extensively modified system, in order to make it secure and prevent it from leaking your data.
. App Settings, Firewall and Xprivacy built-in, and already applied out of the box to make sure you are well protected.
. Xprivacy is a fantastic tool but it has one big limitation, it can't restrict the Android System from accessing your serial numbers and leaking it. For that reason these IDs have been edited as follows:
build.serial (androidboot.serialno) and ro.serialno are both set to "1",
android id is set to "android",
net.hostname is set to "1".
. Wlan serial number set to "00000001" (this number identifies you everytime you connect to the internet, and Xprivacy can't do anything about it).
. USB ID (iSerial) set to 1.
. Unreadable cp access.
. Vulnerabilities patched thanks to Master Key Multi Fix and Fake ID Fix.
. ADB disabled (can be re-enabled, see below).
. By default ADB and the Live Wallpaper Picker app are disabled. Using the provided scripts you can re-enable some or all of them, and you can restrict all google access (including youtube, blogspot and google search), the Media Storage/Provider app and more, instructions are in the "HOW TO USE THE ROM" section.
. Plenty of under the hood modifications to make the ROM fast and fluid.
. Multi-purpose navigation keys.
. Call button in contacts.
. Because secure doesn't mean ugly, the whole ROM has been themed in black holo to replace Samsung's light holo theme, with a beautiful green color for keys, icons and some text (if there are enough requests other themes will follow), transparency, and Lollipop HD wallpapers.
. Multiwindows have been revamped, they are no longer only static in Samsung style but now they can float and be resized too, like on a computer.
. All apps can be opened in floating mode.
. All apps display in the Flash Bar.
. Possibility to choose between static or floating multiwindows (instructions are in the "HOW TO USE THE ROM" section).
. Heaps of hand picked and carefully scrutinized open source apps.
There are 2 non open source apps (Greenify and Quick Pic) but they are safe, believe me, I have thoroughly examined them. Still, you can always uninstall them if you feel like it.
In time we will develop our own apps, but first we want to see how people respond to the Una concept...
Installed apps/tools
. 920 Editor, to create and edit scripts or text files.
. AF+ Firewall.
. Alarm clock.
. APG, to encrypt messages.
. App Settings, to restrict apps' permissions, change DPI on a per app basis and more.
. Arity, a calcultor.
. Conversations, a secure and encrypted chat, modded by uncle Fab for increased security.
. Fdroid, an alternative to the Play Store, and all the apps are open source!
. Floating stickies, to make small notes on the fly.
. FTP Server, to copy files to/from your phone wirelessly.
. Ghost Commander, a very powerful dual panel root file manager.
. Gravity Box, a theming engine.
. Greenify, to make apps behave by hibernating them when not in use.
. K9 Mail, an email client.
. Kernel Adiutor, if you feel like playing with kernel tweaks (but you have to know what you are doing).
. Lightning, a fast and light weight browser.
. Network Log, to check where your apps connect and chase unwanted connections.
. Open Camera.
. Tor (Orbot) for Android, modded by uncle Fab for increased security.
. Orweb, a browser designed to work along with Tor.
. OS Monitor, to monitor and kill your phone's processes, and more.
. Pale Moon, based on Firefox for Android, for a full desktop experience with Mozilla add-ons preinstalled for enhanced security.
. PDF Reader.
. Preferences Manager, to edit the otherwise difficult to read shared_prefs files in data/data.
. Quick Dic, a good selection of free dictionaries.
. Quick Pic, a Gallery app.
. Search Light, a torch.
. Terminal Emulator, fire up your commands and show your phone who is the boss!
. Text Secure, a secure and encrypted SMS app, modded by uncle Fab for increased security.
. Tint Browser, another fast web browser.
. Urecord, to record sounds with different sample rates.
. USB Mass Storage Enabler, to connect your phone to any computer (note that it only mounts the external SD).
. Viper4Android FX, a powerful sound enhancer.
. Viper4Android XHiFi, some more sound enhancements.
. VLC, a video and music player favourite.
. WI-Fi Privacy Police, to secure your connections even better than they already are.
. Xposed Installer, a great framework that enables apps like App Settings or Xprivacy to work.
. Xprivacy, last but not least, the best privacy app.
INSTALLATION
As usual, make a backup first!
Do backup your contacts and whatever is important because all your apps and data will be erased (your sd card contents won't be deleted though).
Do backup your /system/csc folder, in case you need it for later.
Do backup your efs folder (VERY IMPORTANT).
Open an android terminal from your phone, first type "su" (without the quotes), enter, then type:
busybox dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4 of=/sdcard/efs.img
This will create an efs backup caled efs.img in your sd card.
If you need to restore it, make sure the efs.img is in your internal sd card and type:
busybox dd if=/sdcard/efs.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
Before you install the ROM, you need a working custom recovery.
Philz is the best since AFAIK it's the only one that allows you to lock you recovery with a password (highly recommended, if your recovery is not password protected it wouldn't take more than 2 minutes for someone to disable your pattern or pin protected lockscreen and access all your personal data on the phone).
Alas, the Philz version for the T111 doesn't work properly (if there are enough users request I may build a working Philz) so for now you'll have to install TWRP from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...sm-t110-kernel-sources-twrp-bootloop-t3060819
Don't forget to thank @ paziusss for his work!
TWRP installation instructions
You need to have Samsung drivers installed.
Boot your phone into download mode (press volume down and power at the same time).
Open Odin 3.07 and connect your phone.
Click on the PDA slot, navigate to where the TWRP recovery is located and select it.
DOUBLE CHECK AND MAKE SURE THAT "RE-PARTITION" IS UNTICKED (only "Auto Reboot" and "F.Reset Time" should be selected).
Click start and wait while Odin flashes TWRP.
If everything went well your phone will now auto-reboot into the system. Go into recovery, you should see your brand new TWRP.
If you are still on stock recovery then repeat the above steps, but this time untick “Auto Reboot” in Odin.
When in recovery, if before you reboot you see a text on the screen displaying “yes – disable flash recovery”, select it to avoid stock recovery overwriting TWRP.
Now, download Una from here (scroll down until you get to the download section):
http://unaos.com/
Unzip the file and copy it to the backup folder that is inside the clockworkmod folder in your sd card (if there's no backup folder create it by choosing "mkdir" in Ghost Commander).
Boot into recovery.
Go to restore from sdcard, choose 2015-03-29--13-45-53 JDQ39.T111XXUANB2 and go for it!
IMPORTANT!!!
In case you had previously installed one of those Knox plagued ROMs (maybe some of the latest 4.2.2 ROMs?) you'll have to choose custom restore and uncheck boot in the menu, because since the bootloader you have is Knoxed you may get a brick if you downgrade it to a pre-Knox version, don't play with that!
If you choose to proceed, you do so at your own risk, but in any case first read through XDA's forum to find out if it's doable.
If it doesn't work for you then I'm sorry, you are out of luck, shame on you Knox...
If it works please report it here so that other people will know, thanks in advance!
Once it's done reboot, congratulations, you have installed Una ROM on your phone!
HOW TO USE THE ROM
. Swipe down to access the applications drawer.
. Swipe up to turn off the screen.
. Go to settings and set a lockscreen (recommended).
. Go in recovery and set a recovery password (recommended).
. Long pressing on the menu key toggles expanded desktop (full screen, no more navigation bar and no more status bar).
. Double pressing the menu key kills and hibernates the current application.
. Long pressing the recent key brings you back to the last application (convenient to switch from one app to another).
. Between the home and the back key there's a supplementary key that can display up to 12 apps (editable in gravity box).
Double pressing that key shows the sound panel, long pressing it shows the reboot menu (note that there's an option to take screenshots in the reboot menu).
. Go to /system/etc/security/cacerts, check the certificates that are there (you'll find the certificate's name approximately by the middle of the file), and erase the ones you don't need/like.
When you want to transfer files to/from your phone open the USB Mass Storage Enabler app and enable mass storage, that's it. When you are done, don't forget to eject your phone from the computer.
. When you install a new application, by default it will be fully restricted in both Xprivacy and the Firewall.
Before you open the newly installed app wait until the Xprivacy icon appears in the status bar, then and only then can you open it.
Most likely the app will crash.
Go to Xprivacy, open its settings and then usage data, you will see what restrictions caused the crash. Re enable some, provided that they are not too invasive.
Many apps require "load.Library" to be allowed in the shell section, that's ok.
Others may need to access the sd card, that's in the storage section and it's ok to allow it for apps that really need to access the storage, like players, cameras or file managers (for other apps try to keep it restricted).
Root apps obviously need "su" and/or 'sh", and sometimes "exec", in the shell section.
Always try to enable as few fields as possible, and bear in mind that data requested by an app is not necessarily needed for that app to work (especially true for identification, internet and mcc/mmc access).
Lastly, give the app internet access in the Firewall if, and only if, it needs it, and restrict some more permissions in App Settings.
If you can't tame the app consider uninstalling it and look for a similar one that has less built-in spyware.
SCRIPTS
. As said above, by default ADB and the Live Wallpaper Picker app are disabled.
If you want to re-enable some or all of them, open the script folder located in system/etc, click on the desired script and choose edit.
Copy the whole text and paste it in the Android Terminal, voila, the script is automagically executed.
. You will see more scripts, to disable/enable ADB, the Bluetooth, the Media Storage, all google access (including youtube, blogspot and google search) and the Phone (that will turn your Tab into a wifi only device and make it much more private since the phone modem is closed source and thus unsafe).
If you disable the Phone and later want to re-enable it do as follows:
untick App Settings in Xposed's modules section, re-enable Phone, reboot, then enable App Settings again.
. Some scripts enable you to backup/restore your efs partition, you do what you want but backing up your efs comes highly recommended.
If you need to restore it, make sure the efs.img is in your internal sd card before you run the script.
. Other scripts can enable/disable am and pm, but don't play with it unless you know what you're doing.
. You can uninstall the Live Wallpaper Picker, the Wallpaper Chooser and the Media Storage if you want, or keep them disabled and resurrect them when needed.
. If you are very privacy concerned you should consider using the "uncle's phone lite" mod because it enables you to call with only the Phone and the Telephony Provider apps (CSC, Contacts, Contacts Storage, Logs Provider and STK are completely de-activated). That's the method I use to make calls, but you have to know that the dialler forces close after you complete the call (not a big deal in my opinion but still, I may look into it one of these days). You'll find the mod in the add-ons section.
. I forgot to add the scripts to enable static or floating multiwindows, you'll find them in the add ons section.
Unzip the file, you'll see 2 scripts.
Put them in the system/etc/script folder, give them rwx, rx, rx permissions (755) and run the one called "static_multiwindows_t111".
Reboot, you are back to stock static multiwindows but now you can make multiwindows templates (look for the cross below the edit button), and the good thing is that those templates will stay if you switch again to floating multiwindows.
If you want your windows to float again run the script "floating_multiwindows_t111".
ENCRYPTION
If encryption is your thing we have you covered with the following installed apps:
APG, Conversations, K9 Mail and Text Secure.
BUGS
. There are a few minor UI inconsistencies due to the black holo theme, it will be fixed in the next release.
. When you are in the dialer app you can access the call log and the contacts, but don't press favorites. If you want to access them press contacts first, and then favorites.
. For some reason the ADW Launcher doesn't allow transparency in the navigation and the status bars, I'm working on it.
. Network Log app doesn't work, it's not an Una bug but a limitation in the T111's kernel (some modules are missing).
If there are enough users' requests I'll tweak the kernel and add the missing stuff.
. You can't download anything from Lightning and Tint Browser, that's because the Download Manager and the Download UI have been uninstalled. If you need to download something, copy the link and paste it in Pale Moon, it has its own download engine.
. All the installed apps work, but other apps you install may crash. I call that kind of apps "google’s henchmen", they only work if the play store services or the bla bla app are installed and of course they won't on Una since all that garbage has been removed.
If I install your app, why do you want to force me to install your boss' app too? Forget about those apps and search Fdroid, you'll find what you need...
. Depending the way you use your phone you may have to fine tune Xprivacy and reenable some permissions, I'm sorry for the inconvenience but it's impossible to set Xprivacy for all users since we all have different ways to use our phone.
ADD-ONS
. Uncle's themed Sony keyboard, flash it in recovery. It's not open source and that's why it's not included in the rom by default, but it's my every day keyboard because it works fine and because I themed it to make it look nice.
. Uncle's phone lite (with clipboard and dialer) for hardcore users. It's safer than using the regular phone configuration, but the dialer forces close when you hang up the call. Flash it in recovery, wipe dalvik-cache, reboot.
. Completely disable internet access for the Android System. Lightning and Tint Browser won't connect anymore since they use the same web engine as the Android System (that is anyway not very safe in 4.2.2), but Pale Moon still works thanks to its build-in web engine. Flash it in recovery, wipe dalvik-cache, reboot.
. Holo Light Theme
In case you don't like the black Holo Theme we use for the ROM, here's the stock Light (white) Hole Theme. Flash the zip in recovery, clear dalvik-cache, reboot.
Add-ons are here (scroll down until the download section, then in the download page scroll down a bit until you see the add-ons link on the right):

UPDATES?
There will be some, but only if there is enough users' feedback. No ETA though, you'll have to be patient because now we have to design and release Una for many other phones.
Still, any suggestions/comments/bug reports are welcome, help us to improve Una!
FEATURE REQUESTS
Yeah, sure, we'll see what we can do but we don't promise anything
That's all for now, enjoy the ROM!!!

surprised.
i m bit surprised with this , cause wasnt expecting somebody 2 make rom 4 this tab, firstly i will try said twrp zip,presently on dr. ketans rom having stock recovery [shame].
thanx 4 efforts time. thinking about yr warning [knox thing i dont want brick,but not cleared soft bick or hard brick]
Nice to see that you are surprised, or well, I hope it s a good surprise.
I m not very familliar with this Tab since I don t own it, but what i know is that problems with Knox come from the bootloader.
In order to avoid it do as follows:
make a backup of your current rom,
flash UNA rom by doing a custom recovery (as I explained in OP) and only restoring system and data (untick boot), cuz even in the worst scenario, that is that the rom won t install, you won t brick your tab since you didn t touch the bootloader and all you ll have to do is to restore the backup you made previously...
In any case try the TWRP from the link I gave, it works flawlessly (I know about the other TWRP, it didn t work well since it was meant for the wifi only model).
And don t forget to report here how it went, thanks in advance!:good:
couldnt locate new twrp zip in download folder
couldnt locate new twrp zip in download folder will try again tommarow.
Great Work.
i like the rom but because of that blue color i don,t want this rom. it makes me feel bad.
can you guy,s change it to white.
(it might be due to diffrent types of vision people have so maby it,s worse for some one and good for some one els)
Holo Light (white) Theme added, check OP in the add-ons section.
can i flashthis rom in odin ???
i cant locate twrp zip in computer.
It's works on T110?
Edit: Yes, it's works on T110. Thanks for share .
Can I install on SM-T110?
Im getting mismach error, any suggestion?
YES its working rom on sm t 111, confirmed. thanks but without gapps & all i seriously doubt how many will use it but neverthles u ppl gave us a working rom that i appreciate
I like the idea of excluding 'Google \gapps' I am waiting to get my hands on a tab7 lite and give this a go. I would like to remove all the junk from the ROM on this Asus tablet. I will tinker with it when I get the Samsung.
Can you give a Google Apps for this room or just the Google Play? I tried install one gapps package but it broke all.

@nexbr, we can't help you! If you had read the OP, then you would seen that this rom is "privacy and security" oriented, so no gapps at all. It has been tweaked this way, to get rid of all the google stuff. No gapps and no gapps installation ever.
Thanks for this great rom (do you have some sort of guide on porting it to other devices; I would love to help)
Why is adb disabled by default?
adb over usb should be safe enough, you can always disable usb debugging on the phone...
I really like the samsung SM T-111 default keyboard, can we install it keeping it from internet access and so?
can't locate the unaos folder for recovery.
At restore step I'm unable to locate the folder (unzipped folder of unaOS).
How did you guys manage to install this with TWRP? The install doesn't work for me when I'm in the TWRP recovery and point to the zip file.
may i use it on my T110
Can someone guide me where to download this ROM from?
The page on UnaOS doesn't seem to support the download link any more - https://www.copy.com/s/O67vsTVdSO7bTyR1
can you teach how to install both twrp and una and twrp download link for sm-t111
Hi everyone!
Since a lot of users that use custom roms usually miss the use of the secondary camera on Mi5SP (the Black&White sensor) i'll write here a guide to enable it on most third party cameras (GCamera excluded)
As you may already know it does work on Snapdragon camera, but i never use it because it's an old version and it's so buggy (when press to focus you can't shoot).
ok, enough talk, here's what to do:
Pick the camera of your choice, i find the best use with FreeDCam or OpenCamera
Open the info about the app from the app list to copy its package name (for example, OpenCamera: net.sourceforge.opencamera ; FreeDCamera: troop.com.freedcam )
Using a root file manager open build.prop (on Pie and some recent Oreo roms it will be /vendor/build.prop , /system/build.prop otherwise)
Find the string
Code:
vendor.camera.aux.packagelist
(or add it at the end of the file) and append
Code:
,[package-name]
(eg. for opencamera will be
Code:
[COLOR="red"]vendor.camera.aux.packagelist=[/COLOR]other.snap.cameras[COLOR="red"],net.sourceforge.opencamera[/COLOR]
)
Save the file and reboot
Voilà! Open up your camera and upon switching between cameras now includes the secondary sensor!
Hope you'll find it useful, remember that you'll need to add this line every update of the rom, i'll may make a magisk module later to make things easier between updates/rom changes.
Cheers! :highfive:

I think it's clear enough... Open it (meaning with a text editor of course, we're going to add some code here) and just search for the string vendor.camera.aux.packagelist. If you can't find it, add it to the end of the file.
Then just write any camera package name according to the guide, if you want to use one of the two mentioned use the packages provided.
If you want it plain and simple, copy and paste:
Code:
vendor.camera.aux.packagelist=org.codeaurora.snapcam,com.android.camera,org.lineageos.snap,net.sourceforge.opencamera,troop.com.freedcam
Paste this in your build.prop (and override the existing line if there is any), save and reboot.
Thank you very much
Is there any way to install the MIUI original camera on a custom ROM?
I'm currently using LOS16 and it's much better than stock MIUI.. but I really miss the original camera app with the b/w option..

how it works? It will show a option to select the black and white sensor or I can mix to make a better photo?

No, it just enables third party cameras to access the B&W sensor, it will be used as a standalone camera and switchable in the app by pressing the "change camera" button. Can't use both at the same time
