As many of you heard, android 8 has now been officially released. I will be working to get an AOSP version working on the 7" LTE tablet, I have heard that there may be significant HAL changes so it may take some time. I have just released the august update for the SM-T285, I've been also working to get a stable repo out for this device in the last couple of weeks. Anyway wish me luck.
Update 08/24/2017 - I was able to download the 8.0.0_r4 aosp sources and got it to compile the modified device tree. There seems to be significant changes with some HAL libraries, vendor specific libs are now moved to its own place in the system image. Will now proceed to actual testing and porting.

Great! Is there ANY chance you wil make an extra effort to release this for the SM-T280 also?
AFAIK the only difderence is LTE versus WiFi only [emoji4] ?

I won't be directly developing for the T280 sadly. There may be subtle differences at the kernel level and some components (e.g. GPS, touchscreen) which prevents ROMs for the T285 from working with the T280. However my work with the T285 should greatly speedup development for the T280 once the first custom ROMs arrive.

Is this just non stock roms? I've had stock T285 roms running on my T280 without issue.

I remember some people tried on my CM/Lineage/Omni based roms on their T280 and it failed to boot, though I can't tell the method they used to flash those ROMs so it is possible that their methods are incorrect. As for stock ROMs this is new information for me if that is the case. I am unable to verify these as I don't have a T280, though if there is a dev who would like to try if would be nice.

my oreo build isn't usable at the moment, wifi doesn't work and you can't turn the screen back on after turning it off. Trying to figure out if this is a LineageOS issue or a hardware issue takes too much time, I'm waiting for the first official builds of Lineage OS to start rolling out before I spend more time on this.
Bacoor,
I've just bought a Galaxy Tab A6 LTE (SM-T285) and haven't rooted or done anything to an android phone in over 5 years. Feeling Green as hell! I'm back to being a newbie. Any suggestions you can offer to me on a guide and which TWRP and Android I should install on my phone. I'll need some tutorial help as I feel uneasy. Last Time I did rooting and custom roms was way back on the HTC Hero and then the HP Touchpad to Cyanogenmod.
Well with Oreo comes project treble which does in fact mess with the HAL libraries a lot. Maybe that means there is hope the Galaxy Tab A Line will get "Treble-ized".
Good news if we are.

No excuse for Samsung and their poor 2 time upgrades anymore.
Help regarding update
Hiii bro....sohail here and i have samsung galaxy tab a6 sm-t285 and i want nougat/oreo update in it plz help me bro.....what can i do..? Please let me know as soon as you can....hope you help me...:fingers-crossed
I am still on Android 5.1.x rooted, and probably only version for T285 which every feature is tested working.
Intended to upgrade to Android 6 or 7, but there isn't any stable firmware which is bug-free (ie. GPS and video recording).
Not optimistic on 8.0 being bug-free when the 6 and 7 not fixed after such a long wait (months).

How Do I Test this ROM
I have a T285 and I want to test this rom where do I download it?
Hi guys!
There are news of developement of custom rom with Android O?

What's with KitKat? There are security patches every month until now, right? Why not use a good old version? I have tested android 8.0.0 on moto g and I like android 7.1.2, too. It's not really a necessary update. We can really be happy with 7.1.2. The difference between 6.0 and 7.0/7.1 is so much bigger than the differences between 7.0/7.1 and 8.0.0. And 8.0.0 is old in few weeks, because android 8.1 is coming to pixel2-launch

Sure, but Android 8.0 is almost old, too. Waiting for Andoird 8.1 now. What will be new on this? Do anyone know more? Would be great to get infos
Do you think that One Plus updates OP 3 / 3T to Android 8.1 or will it leave it in stable 8.0?
I doubt it. They want us to buy newer models.
As told to consumers by the Staff, the 3/3T will not be getting 8.1 Oreo as it is beyond the update cycle of the phones.
8.0 will be the final update pushed out officially by OnePlus.
However, you do have the choice of using ROM's when the Developer Previews are done on the Google Nexus/Pixel devices.
Edit: As pointed out to me by @Samitha192, Adam Krisko at OnePlus confirmed that 8.1 will be coming to the 3/3T.
Let's get 8.0 rolled out beyond open beta before we start speculating the future.

It is under Oreo in AOSP, but it is a major OS revision. The Galaxy S7 did not get 7.1 , but it did get 7.0.
Don't keep hopes on OEM's releasing updates for phones that may be 2 years old when the 8.1 development has begun.

8.1 looks more incremental than the jump from 7.0 to 7.1 (new sdk and some drastic changes)
Hopefully we get 8.1 on our devices. If OP to stop supporting 3/3t I'm expecting them to release the camera blobs so we can get 100% out of the hardware moving forward. :good:
I think these two will get the official android 8.1 update as there is already an unofficial Nitrogen OS 8.1 ROM for OnePlus 3/3T based on android 8.1 oreo is availble.

I can second this, really impressed with the 12/12 build of NitrogenOS Oreo 8.1 ROM. Only thing I miss is SELinux enforced, but this will probably be changed when everything is working in enforced mode.

Yeah only reason its permissive is because this is a user-debug build. If I were to build a user build, it would be enforced and all.

What?, not yet,, just stay 8.0 if you want oos,,
Um what? OOS 8.1/5.1 will only be released when OnePlus does it. There are no OOS 5.1 "based" ROMs as of yet. No one can make a OOS 5.1 OTA other than OnePlus.
FreedomOS/theOne3TOS, they're all just modified OOS OTAs with Add-ons. Nothing else. Their Android system isn't modified, just with Add-ons, like Root/Equalizers/Magisk Modules and so on. These aren't ROMs per sé, just fitted with an Aroma Installer to select add-ons and for easier installation.
All in all, don't keep hope on OnePlus releasing Android 8.1 for the 3/3T. They promised N for the 2, and it never happened. .

It was a failure yes, but there are still users who bought it and most of them do not know about Custom ROMS. They should keep the customers happy, not looking at the device status.
I honestly don't have any hope that the 3/3T will see the light of 8.1/5.1

I was just surfing random android stuffs on internet and eventually found the "Project Treble"!!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble
After then I installed the app known as "Project Treble" in app store, this app tells you if your device is capable for this project or not. And good thing for us that XZ1 Compact is supported.
I have unlocked my bootloader, so there is no chance for getting any OTA updates.
Well, I was never worried about not getting OTA updates because XZ1 Compact is already a year old and sony will eventually stop rolling the updates after sometime, but unlike sony, Project Treble seems more promising for regular security updates and many more other things that sony will probability never provide.
As for example look at this thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...device-development/rom-aosp-extended-t3821934
Here you can see that they are providing kernel 4.9, while we, who are still on kernel 4.4 even after latest pie update.
And this also : https://www.xda-developers.com/google-test-android-q-project-treble-gsi/
Keeping all these apart, I just wanted to ask if any XZ1 Copmact user has tried this "Project Treble" or not??
And if yes then please share your reviews here.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
There's various posts about Project Treble in this device's forum. I'll leave the searching for you.
I didn´t try with the latest Pie firmware yet.
With Android 8.0 as base I was able to run almost every Treble-ROM based von Android 8.1, Android 9.0 bootloops. May be it is working together with the latest Pie rom as well.

Because project treble doesnt affect the stock rom functionality you must do the same as if you were on stock. Install drm fix and Magisk in twrp and permissive kernel patch via Magisk when in Android.
I suggest AOSP from the creator himself or resurrection Rom.
I have got no idea about Volte
