Issues

Audio

The exynos 4412 quad has audio support, but it is hit-or-miss and here it is very dodgy, with KDE not making a sound

Charging

Charging works, but is slow. You'll probably need to turn the display off for the charge to increase.

On GNOME, the charging state icon doesn't change until you restart the device.

WiFi

If your device is N8020, you'll likely need to run this command to be able to connect to WiFi networks. Otherwise, WiFi is functional.

$ sudo ln -sf /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,i9305.txt /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,n8010.txt

Non-functional hardware

The S-Pen is currently not working.

How to enter flash mode

Press Volume Down and Power on power up.

Volume down is the side of the volume rocker that is closest to the power button.

Installation

use "pmbootstrap install --sdcard=/dev/XXX" (which is your sd card) to install onto an sd card, use "pmbootstrap export" to grab the boot.img (should fit, if not then something is wrong) and flash using twrp
