To Install Lineage OS 17.1 for Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 2016 (Android 10 Q)

 

If you have never rooted an Android tablet or phone and are interested in
getting into this scene with a low risk, this would be a good learning
tablet since if you break it, it's basically too old to be worth anything
now.  This tab was made before they started mandating signed bootloaders on
Android so it was easy to build modded roms for.

 

Lineage 17.1 is based on Android 10 so it's now a little old.

 

Nowadays the custom Android rom scene buys specific phone models (such as
Google Pixels) that explicitly permit the users to unlock bootloaders.  Back
in the early days of rom modding, much effort was put into writing cracks
that could exploit security holes to escalate privileges and use that to
install modded bootroms which would allow you to load modded Android roms.
