<![CDATA[alternative OS for Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra]]>Dear Community,

I have a Problem. I'm looking for an alternative Operating System for my Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra (2023). Due to my search, I did not find enything. I'm not shure, if the "Ubuntu Touch" works on this device because some people tell in the internet, some of the hardware is not managed. Please, it would realy helpful to find a solution because to work with the Android OS is horrible.
Please let me also know if it has no option of an OS for my tablet, I can stop searching.
I thank you very much - best wishes.

Is it the good device ?
It is not the easyest os to install...

I don't think anyone else is attempting this port.
But if you need help you can post in the porting section of the forum if you got stuck after reading the porting documentation.

I have also searched to see if someone is developing a port for this device and found none.

This means that Ubuntu Touch won't run on this device unless someone develops a port for it.

There is some work for LineageOS being developed on this tablet see here.
