10 inch Phablet recommendations? - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Hi
Does anyone have a recommendation for a 10" Phablet?
Ideally dual sim.
Compatible TWRP & a stable LineageOS (without GAPPS)
14.1 would be fine. Doesn't need to be high end, 720p screen is fine.
Thanks

Most stable Lollipop or MM ROM for 8.4?

I currently have both a Nexus 7 (2013) running official MM and a Nook HD running unofficial CM13. The last stable release for the Nook was CM11 and official CM development has stopped. That hardware is almost past its useful life. The Nexus is fine but I would really like a slightly larger screen and an SD card slot so I am looking at used Tab Pro and Tab S 8.4" models. I'm not a fan of Touchwiz so I want something that I can flash Lollipop or MM onto. I know there's a stable release of 12.1 for the Pro but only nightlies for 13 on either model (and no stable CM at all for the Tab S.) So my question is, are any of the current CM releases (or other ROMs) good enough to be a "daily driver?" My experience on the Nook was that stable releases were indeed pretty stable and nightlies were hit or miss. Can I assume the same for the Galaxy Tabs?
FWIW, I use the tablet mainly for FB, Chrome browsing, reading NYTimes and as a book reader (using the Kindle app or FB Reader.)
Thanks in advance for your opinions.
FWIW, just about any of the CM13-based ROMs are very stable. Most of the serious bugs were fixed a while back. You've got several to choose from, and they're more or less all based on 6.0.1_r50-something. I don't think you can lose with any of them.

I have a Tab Pro 8.4 & have been using the latest build of temasek's UNOFFICIAL CM13 & it has been running great. I use my tablet every day for Facebook, G+, XDA, chrome web browser & a few word games, read using the Kindle app or Moon Reader Pro.
I have owned this tablet for a couple of years now & started out with CM 11 on it.
Here's a link to Temasek's rom

X98 teclast plus ii request for remix os

Request for the new tablet.
+1
and at all, is it any reason make this posts in this section? If it give or gave any support ?
One case of succesfull installation of Remix OS on techtablets forum today published.
With some issues ( bad work screen brightness adjustment and only landscape orientation), but successful !!!
Please support Remix OS for Teclast x98 plus II. There are only few issues, compared to already existent Teclast x98 plus. Thank you !!
I am glad to have found this thread and to know others want this ported. Over at Tech Tablets forum, someone posted a way to flash the X98 PLUS Remix OS to the PLUS II by switching the boot.img.
While this boots, lots of things are missing.
-Screen Rotation
- Brightness control (the changes are very minimal currently)
- Proper SD card recognition
- No Sound unless you use Bluetooth
Everything else so far works amazingly and better than the 5.1 Android that comes installed with the tablet. The application compatibility is much better and the system overall runs smoother. If Remix Officially comes to the X98 Plus II, I'm looking forward to removing Windows 10 all together from my tablet.
+1 from me too! All the parts are there and it works pretty well (apart from internal sound) with the information at tech tablet.

Searching a phone under 5 inch for lineage

Hello,
I am searching for a phone under 5 inch for current lineage os (and likely with support for next versions). It seems to be nearly unpossible. It is quite hard to check all supported phones for the display screen. Does someone knows if there is somewhere an overview of lineage phones where I can sort or filter the display size? Does someone uses such a phone with lineage?
I use moto e 1St gen condor. 4.3 inch and cheap. Will upgrade from mokee marshmallow as soon as audioFx is fixed or replaced by viper.
Edit: official resurrection remix seems to be the better choice in terms of stable updates.

S4 Mini is good if you are happy with a small midrange phone, but be careful you get a version which has official Linage support ie I9195, i9192, I9190 and NOT variants like i9195L (though it's normally possible to get it running on those but support is limited)
Droid 4
Really happy that I can keep my Droid 4 running through several major version of CM and now Lineage OS 14.1. 4" screen and a nifty sliding keyboard (O where have they all gone?).
I only use it a music server now so I can't speak for it's cell capabilities but it's solid performer anyway.

I own a Wileyfox Swift, as I looked for a Dual SIM device with LTE at an affordable price.
It is 5 inches, which I consider too big now, so I wonder if you found a smaller one in the meantime?

Shoudl I upgrade to Oneplus 3 or 3T?

Currently I have a Oneplus One. The device works well, no scratches, as I have screen protector and a sortof rugged case.
I run Resurrection Remix with MicroG.
But I would like to upgrade to a dual Sim phone. I could get a Oneplus 3 cheaply.
Should I get me a Oneplus 3 or 3T? Is there a huge difference?
I would like to install a Custom ROM, without GAPPS but MicroG.
Which one has more Custom Roms?
Long story short! Get an OnePlus 3T. It's better than 3 in battery backup. other advantages are negligible. Custom Rom support is basically same.

3 or 3T doesn't matter since there is not much variation between the two except for a slight increase in battery capacity in 3T. Even most of the Custom ROMs are unified for both 3 and 3T, so it really doesn't make any difference.
Sure, it's a decent upgrade over One. As far as development goes it's one of the best supported devices out there, so there's plenty of custom ROMs and various mods.

Stuck w/ old Android 5.0 and 4.4.2 two different tablets

Hello,
I have two tablets with very little support.
Either the programmers gave up because the original configuration were too complexe. I know there are a few who like challenges.
In any case
1st tablet
RCA
RCT6203W46
AKA VIKING PRO 2
2nd tablet
Hipstreet phoenix
HS-10DTB12A-16MG
AKA PHOENIX
Is there anyone that can confirm any custom roms working on these units.
4.4.2 and 5.0 are very limiting.
Thanks for looking into this.
There are good number of people that bought these units that would be very happy if anything worked other then stock rom.
Also, I just finished twrp / rr oreo on my old samsung mega 6.3 with full smooth success because of your programmers.
Kick ass!!!
