Finally, Android 10 is official and so the AOSP 10 Source code. Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016 (Codenamed gtaxlwifi/gtaxllte) is now getting the unofficial version of Lineage OS 17.1 developed by Valera1978, XDA Senior Member on XDA forum. Full credits to him and Lineage team. Now you can install Lineage OS 17.1 for Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016 which is stable enough to use as a daily driver.
Android 10 is Google’s 10th version of Android OS with plenty of new features and system UI changes. Google doesn’t come with any dessert item name for the new Android version this time and that’s a good move. If you’re new to the Android ecosystem, it’s worth mentioning that Android is an Open Source Project (AOSP) by Google. With the new released Android 10 source code, the Lineage team has started working on Lineage OS 17.1 for all the supported device.
To install Lineage OS 17.1 on your Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016, you need to unlock bootloader and running latest TWRP Recovery. If you are on the old version, you will see error 7 warning text while installing the custom ROM on Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016 (gtaxlwifi/gtaxllte) device.

Hi there,
Thanks for your ongoing commitment to providing and developing this ROM.
This is the first Lineage ROM I installed for this device (February update #12 on the SM-T585).
No apparent issues following install, but when I try to unlock the screen the screen becomes completely unresponsive to touch, including the shutdown/restart options presented via the the power button. Resorting to resort to hard power down.
I’ve rolled back to a previous ROM, but I’d appreciate if anyone has had similar issues with previous versions #1 through #11?
Many thanks,
Gearoid
