Just rooted my P4 XL - What "bloat" to remove and what new stuff to install?
Hello everyone,
I have been rocking my Nexus 6P for quite some time now but I am running out of space and it was time to get a 3rd battery replacement.
So I decided to get the Pixel 4 XL Clear White with 128GB. Ordered at christmas, received yesterday, rooted today
Usually I would always go with DirtyUnicorn ROM + Kernel but that one hasn't been released yet for the Pixel 4 XL and I am not sure if it is even worth it at this point.
So what I am trying to do is to stay with OEM ROM + Kernel + Root and see if that gets me satisfied.
How ever, DirtyUnicorns bringt optimiations and lets me have the option to install Android at its relatively bare minimum to only add and install what I need and want.
This means I need to:
1. ) Remove some "bloat" that I might not need or want
2. ) Optimize, if there even is anything to optimize
3. ) Make use of root to get my OEM ROM more customized
I am trying to make a list for all three categories and would appreciate any feedback or suggestions:
1. ) Remove some "bloat" that I might not need or want
- Android Accessibility Suite
- Android Auto (?)
- Calculator
- Chrome (I use Chrome Beta)
- Compass
- Data Transfer Tool
- Digital Wellbeing
- Drive
- Duo
- Gmail
- Google News
- Google One
- Google Play Movies & TV
- Google Play Services for AR
- Google Podcassts
- Google Support Services
- Keep Notes
- Photos
- Pixel Launcher
- Pixel Live Wallpaper
- Pixel Tips
- Playground
- Sound Amplifier
- Youtube Music
2. ) Optimize, if there even is anything to optimize
- So far I am not sure if there is anything that really needs to be optimized.
3. ) Make use of root to get my OEM ROM more customized
- Adaway
- OverrideDNS seems obsolete since Android 10 lets me set my own DNS for all connections
- Bluebox Trust Manager (to remove ****ty certificates)
- Viper4Android
- Display color calibration (is that even possible with Ambient Display Color?)
I used to root my device for roms and kernels before, but with Pixels I prefer stay on stock.
It is already so minimal and clean, with it's unique pixel features that I just need a little bit more of customization. Here is what I usually do
Remove apps that are not necessary for the device and/or I don't use. That means:
- Android auto
- Youtube music
- Pixel tips
- Play movies
Optimization:
- Battery friendly and performance boosted kernels, upstreamed linux if possible. Now using kirisakura kernel with it's powerhint magisk module, so far so good
- Naptime for entering doze faster
- Some magisk modules like gms optimization for play services
- Edxposed for fingerface, so I can use the face scanner in every app that supports at least fingerprint auth
Other tweaks:
- Adaway
- Product sans font everywhere (sound silly but I can't go back to roboto after using this)
- Viper4android
- Immersive navbar (hide black navigation bar and make gesture's pill above the content)
- youtube vanced
- gpay sqlite fix
That's it. Small little tweaks here and there and nothing else.

That is pretty much also my plan. Do you get OTA notifications? If yes, that means I do the OTA update whenever I get notified, re-root and re-apply the custom kernel.
Offtopic: Trento is awesome. I visited it last summer

Like @TENN3R stated, there's not a lot you really need to do to improve the stock performance of the P4XL. I too use the kirisakura kernel and his magisk modules mods which gives great battery performance and stability. I also use @Tulsadiver mods for center clock and nav bar swap.
You may get the OTA notification, however you have to do a few things to get it to download and install. You'll see a couple of guides in the forum threads. Personally, I like updating the monthly releases via fastboot. Hope you enjoy your new device :good:

Yes, you get notified about updates, but when you download them the installation fails because of root (doens't even start the installation).
There are some tutorials on how to update when you're rooted, here are two ways:
- By OTA
- By fastboot, which is also the one I always go for, I heard some people have minor problems with ota sometimes, and this always worked for me since my Pixel 1.
If you choose the fastboot one, after the installation simply patch the new boot.img with magisk, flash it, reboot and if you want a custom kernel reflash it

Awesome, is there a list of "stock apps" that you removed? I recall from DirtyUnicorns that you cannot remove all stock apps. E.g. removing the "calculator" might break some stuff on Android 8 even when installing a calculator from the play store.

I actually haven't removed any of them, I simply freeze what I don't use with TiBu. Unfortunately, with the advent of A10, our system files are now read only. Which means that you can no longer remove apk's via root explorer type apps or TiBu like we did a while back. There are a few custom roms out there that apparently have debloated some things, however I haven't felt the need to try them like I once did since my device runs perfectly fine with a few mods here and there :good:

Freezing sounds also fine too me. Which ones did you freeze?
@Utini
If i understand you wrong sry but when i see your lists in the OP it seems to me that you nearly want everything away from Gapps and Google Play Services.
For @TENN3R the stock rom is already clean but for me a clean system means pure AOSP so no Gapps at all. I don't how much you rely on Play Services and Gapps but why don't try a pure aosp rom as phhussons quack vanilla version?
Sry when this is Off Topic.

Where are you finding Product Sans In the Fontio Substratum app?
I like to stay on the stock launcher myself, and actually don't even limit data and restrict battery for apps anymore (used to for most things). 10 seems to be pretty on point with not letting apps drain your battery. I haven't noticed much difference from restricting apps versus not.
Anyway, root apps I use:
SD Maid for cleaning system/app cache
DarQ - Lets you use the force dark mode feature from dev options, but on a per app basis. I can't live without this one.
Pixel Launcher Mods (the app) - Lets you change icons using packs found on play. Also has a few other tweaks like system tuner.
Swift Backup
Viper4Android. Also can't live without this.
Kirisakura kernel
Rosemary font - @Tulsadiver has been kind enough to make some font magisk modules
Terminal
EX Kernel Manager

Is it possible do you think to open the ota. Take the boot.img out. Install magisk like you would when rooting and change the name back to boot.img. reinstall it in the ota and install the ota normally?

which optimization magisk modules are you using? I used to have GMS optimization, but what else do you use?
Also I use active edge mod, pixel 4 tele extender, p4 gcam mod, and ainur narsil sound mod + viper

If you've downloaded and extracted an OTA, you won't find a "boot.img" You'll see what's called power.bin, which I assume contains the boot.img, however, there is no image to extract. You'll need to pull the boot.img from the factory image.zip
Personally, I only update via fastboot with factory images. For me, it's the easiest, most reliable way to update. After 4+ years of doing it that way, this ol dog ain't a changing :good:

What I did was, launch google play store app through google assistant, then type in fluid navigation gestures and install. Then turn on navigation within the app. Or simply go to magisk app and uninstall under modules, reboot, and once you have the fluid navigation gestures set up try again. It shouldn't break anything else. Fingerprint works and same for safetynet. I am on stock rom and kernel with magisk.

Thank You very much for the Reply!
The Fluid Navigation workaround is needed since any ROM breaks since Pie when i add content to the System. Especially when i add Folders to priv-app. Same happens with the Systemless way i use right now. I think it has something to do with the Permission handling of Pie Systems but i found nothing in the Web yet...
I'm really looking forward to push the App within the Patch, with the Option to keep the default Navigation Bar while installing (Volume Key Selector Method). For now do we have to do it like You said. The easiest way will be to setup Fluid Navigation Gestures before installing the Module. Only Important will be that You don't use the Navbar Hide from within the App (Causes missing space on the bottom of the Display). I also talked to the App Creator to make the Setup more easy, think it will just be a matter of time till we can use it without additional (user) efforts...
There is a lot to come with the next Versions. Hope You will like it

I wouldn't call it "Mod", but no. You can use the default Navigation bar by changing qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 to qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 on the System Prop from the Patch, or You can wait for the Update which contains Options for that. I'm currently working on AROMA to include also Busybox and Magisk to deliver the full ROM/Patch Package. AROMA will also allow Me to give Users more choices about what will be flashed. It's everything just in a early phase.

OK, cool
The info post is a little bit misleading is this only for pixel devices? Or for any device bit Snapdragon 835+ if yes can I use it with my Xiaomi mi 8 (Snapdragon 845)?

It's made for Android close to AOSP Pie. Miui could cause conflicts with the given Configs (Audio, Camera or even Bootloops). Snapdragon 835 should be the minimum based on the given Quality Settings. Older SoCs may face missing Audio, lags or other Problems. That how i keep it since the Nexus 6. Every new SoC and Android Version needs new Configs which may not work on older Ones. Hope that explains it better

lol wuuut I was just searching for an alternative to the great Instagram Rocket on iOS. Sadly doesn't seem to exist I really hate the original one.
Welcome to Formula Performante...
Hey there fellow Tab S2 user! So... your wondering what this ROM is huh? This ROM is the fruit of my labour, after many many hours of work, research etc. This ROM is genuinely the lightest stock based ROM, in all of the Tab S2 ROM era. The ROM weighs just 675 MB, its RAM usage only 1.0-1.1 GB and its fluidity and speed is unmatched, since any and all modifications have been directed towards only enhancing performance and battery life. So, what does this ROM pack? Here's a list:
Features:
1. Extraordinarily Light Operating System with a very deep debloat
2. Google Apps Removed while still maintaining SafetyNet
3. Latest @engine95 Kernel with Enforcing and far more superior RAM Management
4. Updated SoundAlive with slightly modified Volume Increases
5. Every App has been replaced by the lightest equivalent (For e.g, for the Music App, I checked RAM management of Google Play Music and Eleven Music (Cyangogenmod) and found that Eleven Music used 50 MB of RAM lesser than GPM, so I used that. This should give you an idea of how much research and time it took to find the lightest variant of most stock apps)
6. S8 Camera UI with FHD 60FPS,Tracking AF and Standard Improved Autofocus. Other than these improvements, the camera app was debloated as well, and any useless modes were terminated and rooted out.
7. Completely De-knoxed
8. Magisk Pre-Installed
9. Most Extra RAM and Battery Consuming features have been terminated
10. Device Maintenance switched out for Files GO and SystemUI Tuner (To view battery stats, pull down quick settings (notification panel), click on the top right corner (three dots),button order and place the battery icon and storage icon into the quick settings panel.
11. Mtweaks 13.0 Installed for better kernel control, including GPU control.
12. AOSP Sounds instead of Sammy Sounds.
13. Few build prop tweaks for minor performance gains.
Bugs:
Music will crash on first boot
Do not update Magisk, its 17.1 and has to stay that way to work! New versions of Magisk aren't compatible with out current kernel and will just kill boot!
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Wipe DATA,SYSTEM,DALVIK CACHE and CACHE
2. Flash The ROM
3. Realize you enjoy the ROM and hit Thanks :good:
-- NOTE: This ROM is heavily debloated. It's weight alone should classify how much has been removed. Please check comments before installing to see if theres any problems.

Thanks. Just installed it.
First impressions:
Starting with "Music has stopped". Oops.
Upgrading Magisk Manager results in error, because Magisk version lower than v18.0 not supported. You should mention this. So no updated version of Magisk possible here (from 17.1 to 18.1)? Oops
its fast, really fast. Wow
more to follow, will just reinstall everything to get Magisk to work.

Oh yeah, thanks for reminder. OP updated
You should explain why it isn't possible to update to the newest version of Magisk. It isn't so nice installing a new ROM with an old version of root and no chance to fix this.
Update:
Removed the ROM. Titanium Backup crashes immediately. So unusable for me.

He explained why...upgraded versions of magisk are not compatible with the custom kernel he used inside the rom. Possibly if the kernel gets some updates we'll get magisk updated support too.
Btw idk why Titanium crashes...will test tonight if happens with me too. Dumb tought: maybe it uses some gapp related services to work and then it crashes because thei're missing? That sound stupid i know...
For the Dev:
It's possible to install gapps (bare minimum as play store and play services) or MicroGapps in this rom? Just in case i wont rely on Fdroid or other thirdy part stores. Thank you

Btw idk why Titanium crashes...will test tonight if happens with me too. Dumb tought: maybe it uses some gapp related services to work and then it crashes because thei're missing? That sound stupid i know...
For the Dev:
It's possible to install gapps (bare minimum as play store and play services) or MicroGapps in this rom? Just in case i wont rely on Fdroid or other thirdy part stores. Thank you

Ok so Titanium backup, is related with the kernel being enforcing. Titanium require permissive which I didn't release due to the many security holes it usually poses. Oh and about Gapps, don't flash.
Updated Magisk 17.3 and up, (18.0, 18.1) compatible kernel is here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79164496&postcount=42
Enjoy
Can't enable any Accessibility Services telling that the text to speech language is not supported and when i tries to force itself to change it to english it restarts.
Thanks
core issue imo is that the calling app dialer does not show up during a call-no call ui (call received but no way to accept it) if there was a way to go back to stock dialer and messages this ROM would have been perfect. too bad all in the past now.
For me, after some finetuning, this is the best, fastest and most stable and compatible custom ROM ever for the SM-T715. Thank you Skulldron!
My finetuning after flashing the ROM (TWRP is clearly a requirement):
1) flash new Kernel v1.4
2) flash Magisk v.21.4 (the last one before Magisk (with v.22.0) became an "App", bundeled with the Magisk Manager )
3) install MagiskManager-v8.0.7.apk (The last separate Version of the Magisk Manager before it became a bundle with Magisk)
4) install newest Open Gapps for Arm 7.0 ("Micro" bundle in my case, because I need Exchange support that seems only to come with GMail) choose the one for your needs if you need: open gapps 7.0 arm
5) install Magisk Module "Google Dialer Framework" via Magisk Manager
6) install Google Phone (The offical Google dialer app shows a "device not supported" message but works fine with the Performante Rom. If you don´t like the error message, try another dialer app)
7) install Google contacts (The offical Google contacts app that works fine with the Performante Rom)
That´s the good and stable working basis installation for me. I do not need any google account and use sources like F-Droid, uptodown or the A**zon appstore for some charged applications i need (like Business Calendar, Mobile Doc Scanner...)
Based on you description I reinstalled this one because all other custom roms result in reboots, looping etc.
- Installed stock Gapps (Micro wasn't even available for 7.0)
- the newest kernel 1.6.1
- can use phone and contacts without warnings and problems
- upgraded to lastest magisk version, get warning about system app etc (seems a known problem right now, so I'll wait). But root works
- Netflix, Prime working, Disney with error 39
- fast!
-------------------------
Very good until now. Have to wait a few days and see if the reboots/boot loops etc are gone.
-------------------------
I'll use it only inhouse (since yesterday we have a Galaxy Tab S7+ as primary tablet, but: I can't use it because my daughert occupies it constantly!). Maybe this old and slim rom will give the S2 a new life.
@photona: Thanks for your post. Without it I never would have tried this one again. Sadly Skulldron was last online some months ago...
@engine95: Thanks for updating the kernel!

Thank you for the tips, after installing opengapps, system webview will be missing, so I have to push a webview (v70.0.3538.80) into /system/app and install it again in the system. Didn't you encounter this issue?

I don't use webview, so: no.
cant believe i haven't tried this before. made this ancient tablet very useable. I wish they still made tablets this size, this thin and light with such good screens. its perfect if you want to read the news or surf social media, want something bigger than your phone but not a monster tablet like most these days
Been using for a couple of days now and it is the best rom by far for everyhting, tried lineage android 10 and 11, both of them make the tab run very hot in games and after a few mins the graphics glitch so bad it is unplayable.
This rom however, the games run great and the tab only gets warm. Also battery usage is superior to all other roms ive tried.
Thank you for your hard work.
Glad to see the link still works, shame this was the last rom ive tried, the last happens to be the best
This is a Magisk module that ports Pixel theme and some Pixel features to Android 10 (it was based on Pixel 4 and it's compatible with all AOSP 10, and close to it, ROMs).
Includes:
Pixel Theme Overlay
Styles & wallpapers <- Added new icon packs: Sam, Victor and Kai (Taken from Pixel 5 Android 11 ROM and adapted to work on stock Android 10)
Google Wallpapers (2019; 2020 & 2020a) -> credits to @Pranav Pandey for his work with Google Pixel/2/3/4/a/5 Live Wallpapers
Markup Google
Settings shortcuts for all Pixel goodies
Google Settings Intelligence
Lawnchair Launcher or Pixel Launcher (LL or PL)
Device Personalization Services
Sound Picker
Sound Amplifier
Live Caption <- New feature
Now Playing <- New feature (unfortunately it doesn't work)
Bonus features:
Lawnchair Launcher or Pixel Launcher as default recents provider
Bottom corners perfectly rounded (no more "pixelized stuff" down there...check how they are now before applying the theme...you'll see that ugliness)
Disabled rounded corners on floating windows (which makes all windows transitions 100x times faster)
Complete immersive gesture navigation with no Pill and reduced bar bellow keyboard (now we don't need Fullscreen Immersive gestures mod anymore)
Removed "WiFi with numbers" icons in order to be able to apply other icon themes without losing consistency
Google Sans applied system wide
Several extra fonts <- Added more fonts on latest version
More accent colors
8 more dark styles besides the default black (which can be managed by Rom Control App that's included on MiA3 Mods Magisk Module)
5 QS Headers styles: Grey; Light grey; Accent colored; "Follow dark mode"; and Transparent (again....use Rom Control App)
New themed boot animation (It's google boot animations but with Android One fading on the beginning)
Downloads:
Typhus_V10_Pixel_LL_for_Android10.zip <- Version with Lawnchair as default recents provider
Typhus_V10_Pixel_PL_for_Android10.zip <- Version with Pixel Launcher as default recents provider
Typhus_auto_dark_mode_and_styles.zip <- Extract the mdr file inside this zip and import it to MacroDroid App. (You need this only for the bootanimation to work. As for the rest (qs headers; dark themes), just use Rom Control...).
Check the video for more details (this video is from the old version....but you can get the overall idea):
-- NOTES --
(These are important, so please read them carefully):
1 - As stated, the default dark version is "Black". If you want to change to other dark version all you need to to is to enable the overlay that you want. To do that you'll need a terminal emulator and run a command like this example for Dark gray (this only needs to be run one time after installing the module): (forget this...use Rom Control...)
To enable the Dark Gray version:
Code:
su
Code:
cmd overlay enable com.android.dark.darkgray && cmd overlay enable com.android.dark.darkgrayExt && killall com.android.systemui
To disable the Dark Gray version:
Code:
su
Code:
cmd overlay disable com.android.dark.darkgray && cmd overlay disable com.android.dark.darkgrayExt && killall com.android.systemui
DO NOT ENABLE ALL AT THE SAME TIME!! If you want to test them, you must first enable one, then check it, disable it and enable the other one.Every time you disable it, it will revert back to the default, which is Black.
2 - If you want, you can use MacroDroid App to help you enabling and or disabling these overlays. (nope...bla bla bla...Rom Control...)
For that, you only need to install the app and, afterwards, you just need to import the macro file I've shared here. You just need to access the macro you want, touch the script action and choose "test action". See the screenshots I've shared HERE for more info.
3 - If you already have Pixel or Lawnchair Launcher(s) installed on your device, please, uninstall them before you install the theme.
4 - If you have Quickswitch installed on your device, please, uninstall it before you install this theme version. You may install it after applying the theme but I don't think you'll need it.
5 - Do not update Google Wallpapers nor Device Personalization Services apps. You shouldn't also install any other version, of these apps, you may find on the Internet. Stick to the versions included in the theme, period!
6 - On the other hand, you should update Sound Picker app since some users reported it failed if not updated.
7- All other apps included on the theme, can be updated without any issues but it's not mandatory.
8 - If you want to use Pixel Launcher version, in order to use all cool features, as they're supposed to work, set your phone language to English US. It's possible to use your phone on another language BUT to avoid issues, please disable the suggestions options on Pixel Launcher settings or just disable Gesture navigation.
9 - Don't forget to give all permissions to all apps included on the theme (Pixel Launcher, Sound Picker, Pixel Live Wallpaper Picker, Device Personalization Services, etc.)
10 - Pixel launcher version has everything working but it's not fully compatible with 3rd party launchers when using gesture navigation. The gestures work but you're not able to use the swipe on the navbar to change between apps nor the Clear all button.
11 - On the other hand, Lawnchair version has that feature, but it does not allow you to do searches on the recents screen. Meaning, Lawnchair version does not "talk" with Device personalization Services.
12 - Regarding the themed boot animation, I recommend you to create a backup of your current bootanimation.zip file (just rename it to bootanimation_BKP.zip or something like that, the original file is on /system/media/), before using the "Auto Dark Based On Daylight" macro. If you don't do that, you will lose it!
Cheers and enjoy!
Dark Theme Screenshots
Decided to share these so you may properly check the differences (thought that maybe, in the video, they weren't that noticeable)...

The first ones are so freakin' beautiful. If it wasn't for the buggy A10, I'd be flashing A10 stock immediately and use this theme.
Also, could you possibly add a Network Indicator somehow on stock?
I really like that feature.
Thank you, preliminary!
I'm on stock A10 and I don't face any bugs that makes me want to change ROM to be honest.
As for the network indicators...I don't how to implement that....but I can try to look for it.
And by the way, the last one (Google Grey) is awesome as well since it matches all Google apps dark theme style. It fits perfectly with all Google apps. For instance, I don't quite enjoy being on settings and then access Google settings and see the background color change, that's why I've created this version.
Cheers!
OP has been updated with a new version that fixes all bugs regarding lock screen security and, now, the module is a 3 in 1.
Cheers!

Decided to share some Macrodroid screenshots in order to help, those who never used this, to work it with properly.

Oh right....forgot to talk about that (gonna add this into the OP....).
After downloading the zip you must extract it then you just have to import the Typhus_Pixel.mdr file into Macrodroid.

Yes, I've shared 2 zips on the OP...one is the module ("Typhus_Pixel_for_Android10.zip" to be installed on Magisk) and the other one ("Typhus_Pixel_macro.zip") is a zip file that has to be extracted in order to get the mdr file.
That mdr file must be saved somewhere on your device (internal memory or SD Card).
To import it you only have to open Macrodroid app an touch on the "Export/Import" icon. Then touch the "Storage" button on the "Import" section and choose the mdr file I've shared.
Done.
Module zip link on OP has been updated.
The Module had a bug when opening the volume dialog settings shortcut (on Black and Dark Grey overlays).
Now it's a new version.
If you had already download it, please download and install it again (just the module...the macro isn't needed).
Cheers!

Try to see if your location is correct on Macrodroid since the sunset/sunrise trigger needs it to be accurate. Probably if you set your current location again, it will be fixed (try to test the trigger action).
Also, disable battery optimization for the Macrodroid app (on System settings).

I did all of them. My location is right. I deleted and I imported again the mdr file. Nothing. Whenever I test the actions all work right. But I was excepting the auto mode....
Strange...It's working fine here
Please check if Macrodroid has root permissions (check on Magisk).
You're sure the sunset time has already arrived in your country right?
Maybe you need to recreate the macro from the beginning, or leave it activated and wait for sunrise. If it changes back to white theme, then it's ready.
Cheers!

There's nothing to be scared about. The module is working on stock Android 10 ROM.
If you face any issues after flashing the module all you need to do is to boot into TWRP and flash the module zip again.
Since this module is an edited version of Pix3lify module, it follows Pix3lify install/uninstall logic. This means that if the module is already installed, if you flash it again (through Magisk or TWRP) it will uninstall it.
I've run all possible tests, before sharing this module, by running it being completely on stock Android 10 ROM and firmware.
For anyone who may have faced any issues I recommend you, if you want to use this module of course, to completely hard reset your device by flashing stock Android 9 ROM through fastboot or using Mi Flash tool. DO NOT re-lock de bootloader!
After being completely on stock Android 9, flash the 11.0.14 OTA zip using TWRP or wait for the Android 10 full OTA. The OTA zip can also be found HERE.
This was what I've done in order to be on stock Android 10 without any issues. Probably you will need to do it as well, if you're facing issues.
I know there's a fastboot version of Android 10 ROM out here on XDA but, and I mean no disrespect for the ones who made/share it, but since it's not official there could be something wrong with it (or missing), that's why I recommend to use either OTA or OTA zip through TWRP.
Cheers!

Sorry to hear that! I had a hard time getting My Xperia 5 back to stock since i only own a Chromebook actually but managed it some Minutes ago. Means i can continue working on it now.

BETA1 uploading...
https://youtu.be/sFTvncOpHDk
BETA2 coming. Fixed all Bugs on Stock. Optimized a lot under the hood. Added Audio functions such as Monitor Rotation (Channels change on base of the actual rotation state), Google Pixel UI with Black Dark Mode, Audio Recorder, Pixel Launcher, Theme Manager and so on. Hope You will enjoy it! A Video Preview is also incoming!
(PS: Please avoid using the Gesture Navigation since it's broken with the Pixel Launcher. QuickSwitch for Magisk may fix that, or you can try to install a third Launcher from the Play Store. Sorry for that!)
Mindbreaking. I managed to get Google Play System Updates like on the Pixel or Devices with updateable Apex. Device booted Up fine after applying it... What a Finding...
Comes with BETA3
BETA3 released and i am sorry for the missing BETA2! A XZ3 User told me that the uploaded Version on My Website still was BETA1. I fixed that with BETA3 and BETA4 will be coming soon! Enjoy
BETA4 uploading with some fixes and enhancements. Thanks to My Discord Channel and all the nice People keeping Me up! :angel:

I will update the link
Hmm, looks yummy (love the : Faster Performance Without Special Kernel, part !) many thx for your hard work sir, i've flashed a custom rom / kernel, albite boosting performance, the kernel changed my device name to m21 shark.. something, which is inconvenient, cuz i cant re-install some native apps like smarthing..
Do i need to re-flash vanilla rom before i proceed with your rom, or do i just follow your instructions ?
Cheers
Also, a big yesssss to future updates, i dont mind bying you some beers, for them.
some debloated version, would be definitely appreciated. i have the 4gb ram version.
Gone ahead and tried to install, got error bout Digest verification failed.

link is broken
Device: M215F
ROM Version: 3.3
Using this rom from last one week, so far the experience is good. The rom is very smooth and no crashes at all, the rom is full of lot of flagship features which are not part of M21's stock rom. WIFI Calling, Link to Windows, Dual Messenger, AppLock access and other stuff are working perfectly and top of that It comes with the latest security patch which is a great thing. WIFI, and Bluetooth audio is working flawlessly. The UI is smooth and fast as much as stock experience.
Comparing battery backup of this rom with stock is not justice. However, one full recharge gives you upto 24 to 42 hours of good backup, where WIFI was active all the time and use WhatsApp, EMail, Telegram and other texting applications.
The Only thing I was missing in this rom was the Samsung's built-in "Manage App Data" feature but I believe it has been removed by Samsung itself in Android 11. Still, one should definitely give it a try to experience the joy of a good custom rom.
Dear @Flylarb you did a great job!!
hey, can i use this firmware on sm-m215f?
should i unlock oem and enable usb debugging?

No Need To Flash Vanilla Rom Before
Just flash it in recovery (follow instructions)
It have less ram usage a little bit but i will improve performance without debloat too much
Thanks
