fix the tablet for updates - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello to all,
I'm new on this site. I have an old galaxy note 10.1 and I would like to install Marshmallow. I found the various files around the site. Could someone explain to me step by step how to start? I never installed rom or rooted the tablet, so I should start from the beginning. In the guides I found, TWRP Recovery is used. Thank you so much to those who will help me.

Post is confusing .
Fix the tablet for updates ??
4.4.2 is the last update from Samsung .
Do you mean a custom rom ?? ( there are no longer many active )
Post reported to mods for moving to correct Q&A section .

If you have an n8013, this will load android 7.1 which works well. I got some of these leads from xda-developers but didn't keep the references. Be sure to make a backup first!
INITIAL ROOT REQUIRED
Google skyneel "how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-n8013"
and follow the directions to root your tablet
GET TWRP FOR THE 8013
Google twrp.me samsung samsunggalaxynote101
save the instructions for flashing using ODIN, then
download the twrp image for the 8013.
INSTALL THE TWRP RECOVERY .IMG FILE USING ODIN
DOWNLOAD UNOFFICIAL LINEAGE ROM FOR 8013 (Android 7.1, works great)
Google lineage os downloads "download-galaxy-note-10.1-wifi-lineage-os"
Download lineage rom and gapps links from there.
The page also has instructions for flashing....follow them
ENABLE ROOT FOR LINEAGE
How to root
Google "lineageosdownloads" "root-lineage-os"
Go to the lineageosdownloads page you find and follow the instructions to regain root.

Above is ok but OP asking to Fix Tablets for Updates .
Presume they mean updates not custom roms .

Switch from Darkobas ROM to Cyanogenmod/ OS

I've bought a used OPO that comes with Darkobas v.20160602-0, runs Android 6.0.1, kernel version 3.4.111-LightningSultanRemix...
The phone is rooted, and has Busy Box installed (not sure what this does).
I'd like to re-install Cyanogenmod or Cyanogen OS, whichever is easier, this being the first time I try to change a phone's OS.
Which one of the two - mod or OS - is easier to install?
Do the same steps apply as switching from stock Android to either of them?
Can you point me to an updated tutorial? I've searched a few, but got stuck at installing TWRP. I've installed TWRP Manager app, but it says Custom recovery not installed or not detected.
many thanks!
Switching over to COS or CM involve same number of steps.
Hold Power+Vol Low buttons to enter into recovery mode, if twrp loads then it's already installed.
Otherwise, visit the following links for reference:

Flashing COS : http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/official-cm11s-roms-ota-updates-t2906746 (Download your choice of zip from "Signed flashable zips", i.e., "cm-13.1-ZNH2KAS254-bacon-signed.zip")
Flashing CM : Visit https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=bacon , and download the zip of your choice and flash.

Upgrade my OPO to latest build

I see threads on how to downgrade but none explaining how to upgrade to latest build. Most threads are years old 13.1.2-ZNH2KAS3P0 being the latest i could find
My phone came with V.6.0.1. Cyanogen OS v. 13.1-ZNH2KAS1KN.
why not custom roms ? like lineage os , resurreciton remix etc.
The best way to upgrade is via a custom rom.
Follow this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2788632
13.1.2-ZNH2KAS3P0 indeed the latest official version. If you want to get further updates, only customized ROMs can help you with that.
That was what I was trying to do was install custom ROMs, both new and old failed with TWRP error 7...so i figured there was an update i needed before i could install them. I installed 13.1.2-ZNH2KAS3P0. Still no go...
I already had followed that threads instructions but all ROMs failed. TWRP error 7.
I was finally able to install a ROM. Lineage-14.1-20170814-nightly-bacon-signed https://download.lineageos.org/bacon I am still confused as to why this one worked and the others didn't though... now I am too paranoid to flash any other ROMs until I figure this out .
Any explanation or advice would be greatly appreciated I Hate not understanding how I did something lol. Thanks for all your help!
once you follow the Lineage Os guide your unlocked and good to go. I usually sideload the install using TWRp..

Question ROM on Samsung A12 (SM-A127M).

Hello, I have the SM-A127M.
I have been able to do the following:
1.Unlock the Bootloader.
2. Root with Magisk.
But I want to follow this Guide "Installing TWRP and LInageOS" and I have the following questions:
1. Is it possible to install LineageOS on SM-A127M?
2. Is there a version of TWRP for Android 11 on the SM-A127M? Download a version to install with Odin as AP from here: https://eu.dl.twrp.me/a12/
But the only thing it did was go into an infinite loop in Download mode. Lucky that I was able to unbrick it by flashing the full firmware.
3. Is the reason for switching to LineageOS to improve the phone's performance, do those who already have it really feel an improvement in performance or is it the same as using it with Stock Android from Samsung?
Thank you for your answers.
Don't bother bro, nobody responds to the A127M variant, I got the same phone and a few post before yours i wonder to a custom rom and no one reply.

I think so. Have you tried this model using the installation guides on the forum to install TWRP and/or LineageOS? Have they worked for you? Have they failed you? It does not matter if it is for this specific model.
Thanks in advance.

no my mate, I don't do that for fear to brick the device 'cause it's my main phone and the backup phone have a issue with the battery. Thanks for the suggest.
I have the same phone, but i searched for a12s(sm-a127f) because the specs are the same
The physwizz dev have all on his channel. Twrp kernel etc... I've tried the twrp for this phone and it works well.

Twrp is fine but LineageOS no dont you cant call or text at all sometimes the sim isnt recognised even mention it in the sub reddit and everyone screams at you to download the official even though it happens on official builds
Try installing this custom and unofficial twrp for A12 Nacho.
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=330751
[ODIN] If you couldn't install it on AP, try to install it on BL.
(No need to disable vbmeta I guess cuz I installed it on my a127m and my phone just booted normal)

Probably encrypted device TWRP files with weird file names - Android 12

Since oneplus 6 nas no security updates i decide to install custom ROM LineageOS 19.1 the newest build from official website.
Before installing this ROM i do all steps gently from Funky Wizard guide.
I have ADB drivers, unlock bootloader, installed magisk (rootet phone) backup my OOS and EFS, and installed twrp.
All basic stuff. Now i was ready to go to installed lineageOS.
I install lineage and i do all steps by their official website but with twrp. ( only what i dont flash copy partition zip file i wasnt sure if that will be work with twrp ).
After restart to recovery i must install gapps. Unfortunely the recovery was replaced i was assumed istead of twrp.
I installed gapps with their recovery and all work fine until i want to replace to twrp.
Now when i boot temporarly from img to install it perm. I have weird folder names wihtout any possibility to add ZIP file.
With some research i guess that folders are somehow encrypted.
Could you help me to install twrp with lineageOS when i have still access to this files? I need it for ex. recovery to stock if something in future goes wrong.
And i am currently on android 12 for sure.
Thank you from feedback!
first of all, you'd be better of if you posted this in the right area ==> https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-official-enchilada-12-lineageos-19.4437321/ ==> more chance to get help related to LOS 19 questions (it's pure chance I saw your post here)
second: make sure to follow the instructions given at the LOS instructions pages ==> https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/enchilada/
Mostly it is important that you have latest OOS 11 firmware installed in both slots before you start with LOS.
For the first steps never mind which recovery you have, just follow the instructions using LOS recovery. Reason is that TWRP is having problems wiping data / performing factory reset, at least it never worked for me. Then later on you can switch to TWRP
Back in May this year I wrote an instruction set here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-official-enchilada-12-lineageos-19.4437321/post-86879331
Interesting for you right now is everything below 1.x
2.x is a separate instructiopn set for OTA updates coming later on
Good luck!
Thank you for response. You have right its better to install it directly from dedicated recovery (lineage) and than replace with twrp. Also i fill missing steps (install recovery again and flash parition integration file) and also wipe all data as instruction says. Now after reinstall lineageos and then install twrp i have all normal structure files as before. Thanks again
