What does this rom feature? Well it is based off from the latest G935FXXU2ERG2 (Oreo) base, with all apps removed that can be downloaded threw the playstore, so it is debloated as well. I really like touchwiz as it is on 8.0, that's why I only mode some small modifications to samsungs firmware.
In the future I will add some mods as well, but at the moment I'm confident with the mods I got
You have a question and want to check if it already has been answered? Please check the Q&A Post!
Who should install this rom? All people who like samsungs stock interface with some modifications
Also I'd like to make the super fast experience of the s7 even faster, with even more batterylife, let's see if this can be true
Nobody is allowed to take stuff from my rom without asking me! Thank you.
IF YOU FOLLOW MY STEPS BELOW, YOU WILL MAY LOSE YOUR WARRANTY, KNOX WILL DISPLAY 0x1! I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGED DEVICE!

Rom review (thanks to @shark jungle):
How to install the rom:
For guys who install roms all day:
1. Be sure you got latest TWRP installed, encryption disabled and OEM Unlock ticked
2. Bootloader and modem should be up to date (can also be updated within aroma installer)
3. Flash rom and don't chose magisk in aroma, it messes with the dalvik-cache build on startup
4. In case you want VoLTE and Wifi calling make sure you got your csc installed
For guys who already have some knowledge about android and Roms:
0. Make sure you have a not encrypted device and OEM unlock is enabled in developer settings!!
1. Download the LATESTTWRP recovery(from here: TWRP) and follow the instructions on the TWRP page to get a working recovery (this step is essential!)
2. Download the rom and put it on your external SD card
3. Backup all your things to your external SD card (apps with Titanium Backup for example)
4. It's recommend to update your bootloader to G930FXXU2ERG2 and modem to G930FXXU2ERG2. You can update manually via odin flashing the files from here or update the Bootloader and modem via the aroma installer (only F/FD models can update BL/CP during flashing progress!)
5. If you have to install the bootloader and modem, boot into download mode and flash the bootloader and modem with latest odin using CP and BL tab
6. After you successfully installed your new bootloader and modem, boot your phone to your TWRP recovery
7. Now wipe everything (in TWRP: wipe, format data (keyboard will pop up), type yes, reboot recovery
8. Install the rom and DON'T chose magisk! That is important as it messes up dalvik-cache build on first boot
9. Install your providers/carriers csc
10. Reboot and wait around 10 minute (deodexed roms need longer to boot the first time)
11. Don't interrupt the process of booting the phone, even when it restarts
12. After successfull boot, setup your phone with the initial screens
13. Reboot your phone into TWRP and flash magisk (find it here)
14. After setting up your account etc. go to romcontrol, grant it root access that my default Settings can be applied!
15. Enjoy the new rom version
For guys who are beginner on android:
1. Start your phone, go to settings, about device, software info and hit build.number around 10 times so developer options will show up
2. Open developer options and tick: OEM unlock
3. Shut your phone off
4. You now need a computer, download latest odin
5. You have two possibilites: 1. Update bootloader and modem during aroma installation of the rom (F/FD/W8 model only!). Or 2. Update bootloader and modem via Odin. To update manually via odin, please do following: Download this two files, BL is bootloader and CP is the modem: Choose your correct model version
6. Boot your phone into download mode by pressing: home+volume down+power on
7. Open the downloaded odin on your windows pc and click on BL tab and add the file that name begins with BL (bootloader), same for CP (modem) tab
8. After this, reboot to download mode again
9. Install TWRP (latest one is needed to support new BL's) will be next step, for this, follow all steps provided in this forum: TWRP Thread (booting into download mode: press home+volume down+power on, booting into recovery mode press: home+volume up+power on)
10. When you got TWRP working: We need to disable encryption, for this you should boot into recovery mode (as described above)
11. To get rid of encryption, go to "wipe", format data (keyboard will pop up) then type "yes" and format it, then reboot to recovery
12. After flashing this, hit wipe, full wipe (this will clean all internal memory and your data will be lost!!)
13. You can test if encryption is still enabled, if TWRP shows error about not mounting /data your phone is still encrypted
14. Now you can download the rom onto your PC and then transfer it via usb to your phone
15. It is rom installing time install the rom! One important thing to mention here: don't chose magisk as root. Why? It messes up dalvik-cache on first boot and that will result in a lagging device. We will setup magisk later on.
16. Install your desired CSC right after rom install! That's the best way. You find the link below.
17. After successfully installing the rom and csc hit reboot and you are good to go!
18. After successfull boot, setup your phone with the initial screens
19. After the initial setup, boot into twrp recovery and install the magisk zip. You can download it from here.
20. After flashing the magisk etc. go to romcontrol, grant it root access that my default Settings can be applied!
21. Enjoy the new rom version
22. If you want you can use my csc selection to get your desired csc, if you want that you can grab it here: CSC Selection V2.4.5

Questions and Answers
Basic Questions:
Q: How to get into Download Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume down + power on button until you see the download mode.
Q: How to get into Recovery Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume up + power on button until you see the recovery mode.
Q: My Phone is stuck at boot and doesn't start, what to do??
A: Update your bootloader and modem. Also make sure you have made a fresh install of the rom. Bootloader and Modem can be found in the OP. Another problem can be that you are didn't decrypt your phone. To fix this read below how to disable encryption.
Q: Do I need to update bootloader and modem after every update?
A: It's recommend to update your bootloader and modem everytime there is a new base yes. The developer will tell you if necessary on every rom changelog.
Q: I get verification failed at start up!?!? My phone is broken now?
A: Yes, you have to buy a new phone now. Just kidding You did not disable force encryption in TWRP (how to do so you will find below in how to decrypt your phone).
Q: I get verification FRP LOCK? WHYYYYYY???
A: Very simple answer, you did not enable OEM Unlock in developer options. Now you need to flash full rom with odin again and start from scratch. But don't forget to enable OEM Unlock this time!
Q: Which devices are supported at the moment?
A: Current supported devices are: SM-G930F/FD/K/L/S/W8. Snapdragons are NOT supported
Q: Is this rom working on Snapdragon 820 variants?
A: No, sadly not.
Q: I want to change something in my rom setup, how can I do that?
A: Simply reflash the same rom version without any wipe and than choose the correct things you want.
Q: Some features are not present in this rom, but they are on stock rom, so where are they?
A: In aroma installer you have the option to select bloat you want to install or not, you probably didn't select all package, this is why it's missing now.
Q: After a clean install my phone is overblated with many custom settings. What to do?
A: Open my romcontrol, grant it root permissions and then my default settings will be applied.
Q: Will you add X or Y feature?
A: You can kindly ask in the thread for that, if I like your suggestion I will think about adding it to the rom.
Q: You said you fixed SD card RW but Titanium Backup can't write to external SD card, why???
A: This is because of googles changes concerning SD card, to fix this open Titanium Backup, Menu, Preferences, Backup Folder Location, Storage provider and than hit DocumentProvider Storage and select your SD card. Problem solved
Q: I can't find X and Y mod. Please help
A: I've added many links and useful stuff to this post here. Hope that's what you have been looking for!
Q: I want to have my external storage like an internal as well. Google introduced it with android Marshmallow, but I can't see this option?
A: Just follow this Guide here and you can setup your SD card as normal storage
Q: I got a new strange icon appearing after nougat update. What's that?
A: This is a new advanced calling feature introduced in android nougat. Should make your call quality better or something like this. To hide it please visit following forum: Get rid of RCS icon
Q: I installed Viper or other sound mods, but they won't work, why?
A: You most likely missed to freeze sound alive, if you did this and it's still not working you it's due to the kernel. Stock kernel doesn't support these mods since we need a permissive kernel!
Questions concerning rom updates:
Q: Do I have to do a full wipe for the new version?
A: It is always the best option to make a clean install, otherwise please don't come and report bugs!
Q: But I don't want to make a full wipe when only small stuff changed!
A: For updates using the same bases you can install the rom with a dirty flash. BUT with a new base a clean install is highly recommend!
Q: What steps should I do to update to a new version with a full wipe but keep all data?
A: There are some different ways. One way is to make a backup with Titanium Backup, you can backup all Apps and Preferences there. Make sure to store this backup on external SD card (if you have one). Second way would be to save your data onto a google account or samsung cloud and restore it after a clean install.
Q: I miss an apk after rom update, how can I get it back?
A: Simply reflash rom and select "dirty flash" in aroma + select the app this time in aroma.
Q: My battery life is so bad and performance is very poor after an update!?!?
A: This comes actually not form the rom itself, dirty flash can cause problems even if only some small things have been changed. So simply install it clean again and it will solve your problem.
Q: Performance and battery is very poor even after clean install. What should I do now?
A: I assume you installed Xposed than, some modules can cause batterydrain and performance problems. So try to make a clean install of the rom WITHOUT xposed installed.
Questions about log and logcats:
Q: I got FC's and other Problems with the rom, what to do?
A: Take a logcat for me, developers use to say: without a log, it never happened . A logcat can be grabed with a PC and ADB installed, simply type: adb logcat > log.txt while your phone is connected and the error is happening. Same can be done if you have a terminal installed on your phone. Simply type adb logcat > log.txt and you will have the same output as on the PC.
Q: What kind of logs can I provide to help you?
A: Logcat: This one is for general infos about FC's
DMESG: this is for kernel related things
Last_Kmsg: this can be used after a random reboot
Q: How to get logs?
A: 1. Connect your phone to your pc
2. Make sure you got usb debugging enabled
3. Install Minimal ADB tool
4. After install open it and type: adb logcat > logcat.txt, adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log, adb shell cat proc/last_kmsg kmsg.log
5. Send me the file you got
You can also send me a log created by your phones terminal with the exact same commands!
Questions about RomControl:
Q: None of my romcontrol changes do anything, why are you such a bad dev!?!?
A: The problem is not on my end, you installed stock systemUI (which is STOCK and does not support one single mod). Use another one in aroma instead. The same thing can happen with good lock!
Q: Romcontrol gives FC's to me. HELP!
A: Very simple answer here: wipe data and cache from superman control application. Also make sure storage permissions are given to the romcontrol.
Q: Romcontrol still FC after cleaning data and cache!
A: Make sure you allow storage permission in main settings.
Q: I try to backup my current RomControl setup, but it won't work?
A: It works. Just make sure to enable storage permission in main samsung applicatoin settings. You will find it in internal sdcard under RomControl folder.
Q: I can't restore SuperMan control settings after a clean base update, why?
A: Backup for SuperMan control only works as long as you use the same version of the app, I mostly change very much things in new releases that's why it won't work there.
Q: SystemUI reboot doesn't work in SuperMan settings app, why?
A: Since Nougat update, you need to install busybox in order to get this button working. Without busybox the button will just do nothing.
Q: I enabled weather on lockscreen but I can't see anything...
A: You probably didn't setup or even installed samsungs weather widget. Without it weather on lockscreen won't work too. So reflash the rom with the widget installed this time and set it up.
How to go back to stock:
Q: I like to go back to stock rom, how is this possible?
A: I can provide you here all steps which are needed to go back to a full stock rom.
0. Make a backup and than wipe all partitions in TWRP
1. Go to Sammobile and choose your country
2. Download the file and the attached Odin on sammobile
3. After downloading, put your phone into download mode
4. Make sure drivers are installed and your pc can detect your phone in odin
5. If the box in odin turns blue, add the AP file to AP tab, BL file to BL tab, CP file to CP tab and CSC_HOME to CSC tab
6. Hit start and wait until it is finished.
7. Reboot and you have a stock rom again
Questions about Encryption:
Q: On TWRP there is an error about /data mount, what to do?
A: Your device is encrypted, follow the steps below to get rid of your encryption.
Q: Help, I never had a code and now after installing the rom my phone asks for a password??
A: Your device is still encrypted, on step 0 of my rom instructions it tells you to be sure you're not. So, what do you need to to in case you are still encrypted.
A: HOW TO DISABLE ENCRYPTION:
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Select Wipe
3. Select format data
4. Then you manually need to type "yes" with the keyboard
5. Confirm the wipe (this will remove the encryption)
6. Reboot your recovery
Q: Is there a way to get rid of encryption which is simpler?
A: Not really, you could also wipe data with stock recovery but this is quite a big hassle so above method works better.
Q: And if I want to use this rom with encryption?
A: Normally we can use the stock kernel to encrypt our device, but since the Android 7.0 Nougat update samsung makes a check kernel sides to block deodexed roms from booting. This means that even the stock kernel is build by me to disable knox and tima. So encryption won't work there and you have to encrypt your device after you set up your phone. After that go to settings, security, encrypt device. It may need some additional steps to work...
Questions about CSC/Signal:
Q: Where has the CSC selection gone?
A: To include all csc files, the rom get way to big, so it got it's own thread now, take a look here: CSC installer
Q: I have a weak cellular signal, what can I do against it?
A: Two things: first, install your providers CSC using CSC installer and flash in TWRP or flashing stock CSC with Odin. Second Thing: You can install the modem from your provider, also find your modem on Sammobile and install it with Odin in CP tab.
Q: I don't have all sHealth features, how come?
A: Not all CSCs include this feature. I recommend to use AUT or DBT as it has the best compatibility!
Q: Can I flash MM CSC on N and vis a verse?
A: No, this is clearly not recommend! You can and will face call fc's!
Questions about Xposed:
Q: Does Xposed work yet on Android N 7.0?
A: No it does not! You will end up in a bootloop when you flash it on android N
Q: I selected xposed but now I don't see an app for it?
A: Maybe there went something wrong with installing the app to /data/app from my installer script. But xposed is actually installed only the app is missing, so head over to the download page of xposed app: Material Xposed Thread
Q: I selected xposed but the app shows not active or something else with xposed is not working.
A: This can have 2 reasons:
1. You have installed latest xposed version without installing magisk, magisk is required for most recent xposed version!
2. You used 86.2 xposed (which does not need magisk) but you did not install supersu. Since 86.2 does not use magisk to be systemless it uses supersu instead!
Questions about Magisk:
Q: How can I pass safetynet?
A: 1. Make sure to fully uninstall SuperSU by chainfire
2. Flash most recent 2.4.3 SuperStock Kernel
3. Flash Magisk V12
4. install latest Magisk Manager from playstore
5. Open Magiks Manager, go to settings
6. Enable MagiskHide, systemless hosts and systemless busybox
7. Reboot the phone and check safetynet!
Q: I got out of date binary issue?
A: Since Magisk V11.1 there is no need for phh root anymore. Everything is handled inside the MagiskManager apk!
Q: Where can I configure the root settings in Magisk?
A: Since Magisk V11.1 Magisk uses MagiskSU, you can find it in latest Magisk Manager V4.1
Questions about Snapchat:
Q: Even when I did not use xposed during my setup in rom I can't login to snapchat anymore!
A: Snapchat got updated and now detects even root access on your phone!
Q: What to do to login to snapchat then?
A: Clean install the rom without root and xposed and login to your snapchat, save the app with titanium backup, flash back xposed and root. For the next update of the rom just restore snapchat backup in TB.
Q: Any other possibility?
A: You could enable MagiskHide and check Snapchat inside it so root will be hidden from Snapchat. You will be able to perfectly login without any issues.
Q: I want to discuss this problem a bit deeper. Should I do so?
A: Do that, but this has nothing to do with this rom, so please go ahead and post your experience here on this Snapchat Thread.
Questions about Kernels:
Q: I want to switch kernel, how?
A: Since we have systemless xposed and systemless supersu, we have patches in ramdisk of boot.img. This means you have to reflash Magisk and supersu (or any other zip that changes some stuff in ramdisk partition) after every change of kernel!
Q: Synapse shows no UCI support!
A: Most comon issue is that no busybox is installed. Download the one from here: Latest busybox and flash it in recovery.
Q: I got random reboots, heeelp!
A: This is most likely from a custom kernel, if you face random reboots please check if you have the latest kernel installed or switch back to the stock kernel included in the rom.
Q: My screen is kind of yellow/orange and the touchscreen doesn't work at all!
A: You have chosen the wrong kernel in aroma selection. Reflash the rom without any wipe selecting the right kernel version.
Questions about Root:
Q: I lost root after installing this rom. What to do?
A: All mods (like supersu, phh's root, xposed and magisk) are stored in ramdisk of kernel boot.img. So if you flash this rom, and after this another kernel, simply reflash your preferred root method and it will work again!
Q: I selected phh root but my phone tells me I am not rooted!!
A: There are two possibilities:
1. You have mixed supersu/phh with magisk.
2. You did not install phhs root app from playstore.
Q: I get a warning about binary out of date. Help!
A: That happens on latest Magisk V11.1. Reason: Root has fully moved into Magisk Manager, no additional app required. Uninstall phh or supersu apps and only use magisk!
Q: I want to use su hide on my phone, how to do so?
A: Both below variants are outdated, I recommend to use Magisk with its build in MagiskHide. Check the thread: Magisk Thread
Link to phh's hidesu: Phh's thread
Link to chainfires suhide: Chainfires thread

[ROM][G930F/FD][ALEXNDR] * U8EUE1 * DevBase v7.4 * Encryption support [Jul-10]

Important notes for Developers / Chefs !!!
This ROM is NOT based on any other custom ROM. My work contains many original ideas and innovations that I introduced as the first in the ROM development (see "Changelist" in post #2). Of course, it does not mean that I do not need to thank anyone - there are people who helped / inspired me anyhow (see "Credits").
I will risk the statement that at this moment my "DevBase" is the most tuned and nuanced custom ROM available at XDA Forum
I agree to use any part of my work to create other custom ROMs, but it would be great if you add me to the credits
EDIT: Note related to creating "$ZIPFILE" which contains a file larger than ~4GB (e.g. system.img): the order of adding content to "$ZIPFILE" is very important! META-INF need to be added as the first dir in the archive! Example (my DevBase case):
Code:
zip -r -9 G930FXXU2xxxx_DevBase.zip META-INF options.prop ALEXNDR
It seems that misunderstanding of the above problem is the main reason why many devs give up and do not use my base as a pattern.
Hello
I have decided to create a pure base with my unified installer (should work with many other Samsung devices), which can be a pattern for ROM Chefs (not only for beginners) ROM is initially safe de-bloated (read below what does it exactly mean), but all features are present and works!
ROM can be installed by normal users as well. If you like a little de-bloated ROMs, clean but with all working features - probably there is no better alternative
ROM contains my extended CSC package, which I called G930FAXX (this is a combination of OXX, OXA, OXE, OLB, OJV, OJK + some additional). Final list of available CSC is as follows:
ACR, AFG, AFR, ALE, ARO, ATO, AUT, BGL, BNG, BTC, BTU, BVO, CAC, CAM, CAU, CEL, CHK, CHO, CHP, CHQ, COO, CPW, CYO, DBT, DKR, DRC, ECT, EGY, EON, ETL, EUR, GLB, ILO, INS, INU, ITV, KOR, KSA, LUX, LYS, MAT, MAX, MID, MM1, MRT, MRU, MTZ, MWD, MYM, NEE, NPL, NZC, ORX, PAK, PCL, PCT, PCW, PHE, PHN, PTR, ROM, SEB, SEE, SEK, SER, SIN, SIO, SLI, SLK, SMA, SMG, SKZ, STH, THL, THR, TMC, TPA, TPH, TPL, TRG, TTR, TTT, TUN, TUR, TWO, UPO, UYO, VIM, WTL, XEF, XEH, XEO, XEU, XFA, XFE, XFM, XFU, XID, XME, XSA, XSG, XSP, XTC, XTE, XXV, ZTO
NEW !!! I present you new, unique option: "Keep current CSC", so you can install my DevBase keeping your original CSC even if it is not listed above! Note that in such case this option has some limitations - more informations you can find in related older threads, e.g. HERE
ALEXNDR.G930FXXU8EUE1:
1. Base:
- Odexed (original stock files) + stock kernel
- Multi CSC (list of natively supported CSC as above) (*)
- Removed KNOX related content (useless on rooted phones)
- Rooted systemlessly (Magisk v23.0) (*)
- All original features are present and works (except KNOX related apps)
- Added "App Lock" feature (Settings -> Advanced features)
- No visual changes (100% stock look)
2. CscFeature MOD (enabled some built-in, hidden features):
- Added shutter sound menu in Camera app
- Sending/receiving MMS without data on
- Show SMS/MMS sending time instead of receiving
- Added "Call/Message block" option in Settings
- Added "Show network speed" toggle (Settings -> Display -> Status bar)
- Added "LTE Only" network mode (NOTE: voice calls may not work in this mode)
- 4G/3G network support in any CSC (master/slave SIM, applies to dual SIM variants)
- Call Recording (via "Record" button or "Auto record calls" option)
- Enabled "Recent App Protection" feature
3. Xposed framework & Xposed Installer app [optional] (*)
4. Virtual / physical Safe De-Bloat (more info below) (*)
What does it mean and why is it called "safe"?
- ONLY apps available in stores are removed / skipped in DevBase, so you can easy (re)install any of these app if you like
- ONLY pre-installed system apps are removed / skipped, DevBase installer will never touch any updated app nor app installed manually from a store
- By default virtual Safe De-Bloat is applied with exact same effect as physical (completely skips apps at boot). You can force to delete apps physically but it is recommended only if you really need more space in /system
Thus, the following conclusions can be drawn:
1. If you install my DevBase directly over stock ROM without performing "Wipe data" - in most cases almost all these apps will remain untouched, because almost all apps have been updated already (stored on /data). But then you will be able to remove any useless app using the "Application manager", like any other app. Removed manually app will not appear again until you use my DevBase while updating.
2. If you perform "Wipe data" while installing my DevBase - then all apps listed below will be removed. If you would like to use any of these apps - just install it manually from appropriate store. Installed manually app will not be removed during the next DevBase update.
Removed / skipped apps list:
Excel
Facebook
LinkedIn
OneDrive
PowerPoint
Word
(*) - these options can be controlled by editing options.prop file (you can find such file in ZIP's root directory). Just place modified options.prop file (use e.g. Notepad++ to edit) in the root directory of internal emulated scdard (/data/media/0) or extSdCard (recommended if you plan to format internal emulated sdcard) and then start the installation. More info below:

NEW !!! Starting from DevBase v3.0 there is a new customization method - you can change frequently switched root options or encrypt your device just by renaming installer's ZIP file name (instead of editing options.prop file). Currently supported "strings" in the file name: "noroot", "encrypt", "rescue", "xposed", "CSC_xxxx.zip":
Case 1 (default) - install the ROM with Magisk & MagiskSU as root solution
(just flash ZIP file "as it is")
Case 2 - do not root device (NOTE: you will get unmodified ROM!)
(place "noroot" string anywhere in the ZIP file name, e.g. "G930Fxxx_DevBase_v6.x_noroot.zip")
Regardless of the above root options, starting from DevBase v4.4+, you can also use "encrypt" option (place "encrypt" string anywhere in the ZIP file name, e.g. "G930Fxxx_DevBase_v6.x_encrypt.zip"). All your data will be encrypted "on-the-fly" at next boot after ROM update/reinstall. Wipe data is NOT necessary to use this option. You will NOT lose your data & apps but it is extremely important - do not interrupt encryption process during this "special" boot! Booting can take much longer and you may think it is a bootloop, but it isn't! If you have a large amount of used data - it is recommended to connect your phone to the charger during boot (and open a beer to avoid heart attack while waiting). You do not need to use "encrypt" option again in case of another DevBase update(s) - please read carefully notes below.
In DevBase ROM v4.5+ there is a "rescue" option, which may be especially helpful in case of encrypted device if you experienced bootloop caused by e.g. systemless mod/module/xposed stored on /data (without access to /data from TWRP). In case of bootloop just place "rescue" string anywhere in the ZIP file name, e.g. "G930Fxxx_DevBase_v6.x_rescue.zip" and then (re)install the ROM - should help in case of (probably) all possible bootloop reasons. In addition to the normal (re)installation of the ROM (thus restoring the original /system, kernel, modem, etc.) this option will also force "Core Only Mode" in Magisk and will move all SYSTEMLESS DevBase modifications to /data/devbase/system/.backup, before performing bind mounts, so original files will be used.
In DevBase ROM v4.6+ there is a possibility to force CSC by renaming ZIP file name - this is the only case-sensitive variable which have to be put at the beginning of ZIP file name and must be folloed by "_" (due to the fact that there is a high risk that ZIP file name may contain CSC code accidentally). Example (to force CSC DBT): "DBT_G930Fxxx_DevBase_v6.x.zip"
In DevBase ROM v5.6+ there is "xposed" option which allows you to force Xposed framework installation. It is NOT forced by default - you need to force it manually while installing ROM with Xposed first time, renaming ZIP's file name to e.g. "G930Fxxx_DevBase_v6.x_xposed.zip". Next ROM's updates will detect and apply Xposed profile automatically, unless you wipe /system - then auto detection is not possible.
Notes related to encrypted devices:
How to confirm that your data are encrypted:
1. Go to TWRP and check if it is possible to mount /data. If NOT - all is ok "Failed to mount '/data' (invalid argument)" will be the a frequent message that you need to like in the future
How to update DevBase ROM to a newer version:
1. Copy a newer DevBase ROM to extSdCard or OTG storage (you do NOT need to use "encrypt" option in ZIP file name again, if your device is encrypted already - it just remain encypted)
2. Go to TWRP -> "Install" and flash ZIP file from extSdCard or OTG
3. That's all
The risk of data loss in case of encrypted devices, depending on the ROM scenario:
1. DevBase only: VERY LOW RISK (*)
2. Coming from other custom ROM with encrypted data - MEDIUM RISK (recommended backup)
3. Installing other custom ROM over DevBase - MEDIUM RISK (recommended backup, anyway)
4. Installing pure stock (using Odin) over DevBase (or over any other custom ROM) - VERY HIGH RISK (not recommended!)
(*) There is still a risk to get into a bootloop if you install stuffs like: Xposed framework, incompatible Magisk or Xposed module, incompatible systemless MOD in /data/devbase/system, etc. In case of bootloop just try to use "rescue" option described above
Notes related to EFS backup:
During install, my ROM's installer always performs EFS backup to {storage}/.backup/efs (where {storage} may be /external_sd, /usb-otg, /sdcard - in the preferred order). It is recommended to copy EFS backup occasionally outside the phone and store in safe location (PC, OTG, etc). There are 2 backups - when you first time installed my ROM (efs_backup.tar.gz) and recent, created additionally, just in case (efs_recent.tar.gz). Most useful will be most probably the first one (efs_backup).
You probably will never need these files, but sometimes s**t happens and restoring EFS backup may be the only one way to rescue your device!
When do I need to restore EFS backup?
- lost/invalid IMEI number
- proper IMEI but unable to connect to the network
- connected to the network but unable to make a call and/or transfer data
- unrecoverable bootloop (even after clean DevBase install with default settings)
NOTE: In contrast to many other custom ROMs - my installer uses gzip compression (*.img.gz) to store EFS backup(s). Restore command for your device is stored in txt file in the same directory with EFS backup. If you forgot command - you can read txt file containing proper command @ PC (Notepad) or even directly form TWRP using Terminal's 'cat' command, e.g.:
Code:
cat /external_sd/.backup/efs/efs_backup.txt
NOTE:: Do not panic, read the txt file peacefully and type command exactly as it is in TWRP's Terminal, then tap blue [enter] button. After all - please reboot device. If the problem was EFS related - your device just has been rescued
Installation:
CWM / TWRP recovery (KNOX 0x1) - open file using "Install (Zip)" option and confirm operation. If you want to perform "clean install' - perform "wipe data/factory reset" BEFORE flashing Zip!
Wipe data is NOT required if you are coming from stock ROM (already rooted) or a previous version of my DevBase (if you leave "Keep current CSC" option untouched in /options.prop or if you choose same CSC as you are currently using). In other cases - wipe data is highly recommended!
I do not recommend using any additional "superwipes" or format /system before install my DevBase (my installer cleans your system well enough!).

v7.3 (starting from G930FXXU7ETBD DevBase):
- Fixed bootloop issue in case of Android Q and "noroot" scenario - thanks to @Zackptg5 for the up to date dm-verity disabler
v7.2 (not released for G930F):
- Fixed bootloop issue in case of Android Q and encrypted devices (applies to dirty update)
v7.1 (starting from G930FXXS7ETA8 DevBase):
- Potential fix for "make_ext4fs: not found" error in newer TWRP versions and in result "Failed! Not enough space..." message appears while applying CSC during install (applies to N960x devices)

- Initial support for Android Q / system-as-root devices
v6.0 (starting from G930FXXU3ERL3 DevBase):
- Introduced logging entire installation process (to devbase_install.log file, placed in /data or /cache in case of encrypted devices). These logs may significantly increase the possibility of my help in case of problems with/after installation
- Major imrovements/bugfixes/optimizations related to Android Pie support (e.g. takes care about special SELinux contexts for /odm content, introduced in Pie)
- Removed SuperSU support. Changed allowed "root" variable value in options.prop to true/false (backward compatible with old options.prop file)
- Removed "skipblcp" option - baseband/modem will be always updated, bootloader need to be flashed separately (update is usually not mandatory)
v5.9 (starting from G930FXXU2ERG2 DevBase):
- Changed device detection method to bootloader's prefix (instead of ro.product.*)
- Improved support for applying custom mods automatically at each ROM's install/update, introduced in v5.6 (added support for etc, fonts, media & usr directories in {storage}/devbase/system)
- Added support for custom {storage}/devbase/post-installation.sh script
v5.8 (starting from G930FXXU2EREM DevBase):
- Improved unzip_flash function in the installer to detect properly more flashing errors (e.g. EXT4 partition mismatch)
- Changed /odm flashing method to file based due to potential /odm partition mismatch (applies to carrier branded treble devices)
- Minor optimizations/improvements in the installer (this time mainly to improve installation speed)
- Busybox has been removed from /system/xbin to run properly some banking apps
v5.7 (starting from G930FXXU2ERD5 DevBase):
- Improved/expanded built-in RMM lock prevention (thanks to @jesec for idea of overriding properties via factory.prop)
- OEM unlock status will always be displayed correctly in Developer options (to avoid confusion) with stock kernel included in the DevBase ROM
v5.6 (starting from G930FXXS2DRDC DevBase):
- Added "App Lock" feature (Settings -> Advanced features)
- Added Xposed framework as installation option (it is NOT forced by default - you need to force it manually while installing with Xposed first time, e.g. by "xposed" string in ZIP's file name, but next ROM's updates will detect and apply Xposed profile automatically, unless you wipe /system - then auto detection is not possible)
- Added support for applying custom mods automatically at each ROM's install/update by placing modded apps in {storage}/devbase/system/(priv-)app or placing modded framework files in {storage}/devbase/system/framework (where {storage} may be: /sdcard, /external_sd or /usb-otg)
v5.5 (starting from G930FXXS2DRCC DevBase):
- Added support for flashing optional, CSC related partitions ($OMR, $PRELOAD)
- Added possibility to update recovery (optional, performs update if exists $NAME/images/recovery.img)
- Partition(s) may be wiped only by writing new block's image
- Minor optimizations / improvements in the installer
v5.4 (starting from G930FXXS2DRC3 DevBase):
- Big step forward in DevBase ROM customization ability - almost all current ROM features (hidden up to v5.3) have been moved to options.prop (you will be able to easy add new or remove current feature)
- Return to dm-verity-opt-encrypt boot patcher if necessary (wherever it works well, there are still devices which need "no_verity" function introduced in v5.1)
- Initial support for forcing (changing) CSC in case of devices with /odm as CSC location
- Minor optimizations / improvements in the installer
v5.3 (not released for G930F):
- Improved algorithm of search & change "ro.security.vaultkeeper.feature" property to 0 (/system & /vendor)
v5.2 (not released for G930F):
- Added support for devices with /odm as CSC location
- Added support for flashing $ODM, $VENDOR, $KEYSTORAGE, $DQMDBG images
- Added support for custom debloat list and custom CscFeature list in options.prop
- options.prop file format has been changed to CR/LF (Windows) - more noob-proof solution, user can edit a copy of options.prop file even in Windows Notepad (the installer still supports ANY text format of options.prop file - Win/Unix/MAC)
v5.1 (starting from G930FXXU2DRB7 DevBase):
- Created new "no_verity" function in the installer, compatible with Samsung's Oreo, based on @Chainfire's patch tool (no-verity-opt-encrypt has been removed). In case of Oreo & Magisk as root solution - "no_verity" function will be used as additional support for patching fstab* (as long as Magisk does not do it correctly)
v5.0 (not released for G93xx):
- SYSTEMLESS DevBase has been removed due to the fact, that in case of modern devices/firmwares we need to perform many changes physically in /system anyway, so it loses the sense of use here. If you liked it - you can still install it separately from HERE (it does not need to be re-installed after ROM update as it is installed in /data)
- Added "skipblcp" option to let users skip BL/CP update (additionally it disables auto-reboot when the installer finished work as it is just not necessary then)
- Added "phydebloat" option to let users choose beetween virtual and physical debloat (to get more space in /system)
- Other (minor) optimizations & improvements
v4.6 (starting from G930FXXU2DRAG DevBase):
- Initial support for devices with /system/omc as CSC location
- SYSTEMLESS DevBase updated to v2.0 (see changelog HERE)
- Added possibility to force CSC by renamig ZIP filename. Due to the fact that trere are many different CSC and it is possible that $ZIPNAME may contain a CSC accidentally - to force CSC you need to put CSC in $ZIPNAME at the beginning and CSC must be followed by "_". Example $ZIPNAME (to force CSC DBT): "DBT_G93xFXXU1xxxx_DevBase.zip"
- Added auto efs-backup during install. Installer will create first backup (efs_backup.img.gz) and recent backup (efs_recent.img.gz). The installer will prefer external storage as default backup location (/external_sd or /usb-otg) due to encryption support. MD5 sum and restore command will be stored in efs_backup.txt or efs_recent.txt file
- Other (minor) optimizations & improvements, e.g. added more error messages in case of something went wrong during install
v4.5 (starting from G930FXXU1DQLF DevBase):
- Added new "rescue" option (readable only as string in ZIP file name due to the fact, that we will need this option rarely). It can be a potentially very helpful option in case of bootloop @ encrypted device, caused by a systemless mod/module/xposed stored on /data (without access to /data from TWRP) - more info in post #1
- SYSTEMLESS DevBase updated to v1.14 (see changelog HERE)
v4.4 (starting from G930FXXU1DQLA DevBase):
- Added new "encrypt" option (readable only as string in ZIP file name due to the fact, that we need to do it only once). Now you can easy encrypt all data in your device, just during the ROM upgrade (without data loss).
- SYSTEMLESS DevBase updated to v1.13 (see changelog HERE)
v4.3 (starting from G930FXXS1DQF6 DevBase):
- "root.supersu" & "root.magisk" variables in the options.prop file have been replaced by one "root" variable (dropped possibility to install both - SuperSU & Magisk - due to the fact that Magisk v13+ does not support SuperSU as root solution)
- SYSTEMLESS DevBase updated to v1.9 v1.12 (see changelog HERE)
v4.2 (starting from G930FXXU1DQD7 DevBase):
- Added possibility to add systemlessly NEW apps to /data/devbase/system/(priv-)app (up to 5 apps in "app" & 5 apps in "priv-app"). The only condition is that you need to rename its directories to CustomApp[1...5] (e.g. CustomApp1, CustomApp2, etc..). These apps will remain even if you flash a new DevBase as corresponding dummy directories will exist in future DevBase updates
- In case of DevBase update or re-installation - installer will not remove your custom entries in /data/devbase/system/build.prop and in *.xml files placed in /data/devbase/system/csc
- SYSTEMLESS DevBase updated to v1.6 v1.8 (see changelog HERE)
v4.1 (starting from G930FXXU1DQD2 DevBase):
- Added full Magisk support - MagiskSU is now default root solution (ROM should pass SafetyNet with Magisk Hide enabled in settings)
- Since systemless Xposed does not need to be re-installed every new DevBase I will release (in case of using the same root solution) - it makes no sense to keep it anymore as installation option
- SYSTEMLESS DevBase updated to v1.5 (see changelog HERE)
v4.0 (not released for G93xx):
- A huge step in the systemless direction! DevBase installer now installs pure odexed stock ROM (just slightly debloated), then systemless SuperSU, then systemless DevBase, then (optionally) systemless Xposed
- All Knox related applications are available again (except SecurityLogAgent, to prevent annoying security alerts)
- Fake KNOX 0x0 status (check it in PhoneINFO app) - most of Knox related apps should work again, like in case of untouched KNOX flag
- All mods known from previous DevBase versions (up to v3.x) now are applied systemlessly - all modified files (including modded apps) are placed in /data/devbase/system instead of physical /system partition. Mods section (#4) has been updated to install mods to /data/devbase/system/(priv-)app if systemless DevBase has been detected (otherwise will be installed as usual, to /system)
- Deodex on-the-fly feature has been removed. If you really need deodexed ROM - you can install someone else's deodexed ROM, then systemless DevBase as an overlay
- Init.d support has been removed as it is deprecated (use su.d instead)
v3.8 (not released for G93xx):
- Added hexpatch to root_from function (support for SM-N930x, thanks to @Chainfire)
v3.7 (not released for G93xx):
- Another major improvement/bugfix in deodex_from function (full support for 64 bit OS)
v3.6 (not released for G93xx):
- Major improvement/bugfix in deodex_from function (added "-g" switch to zip command - finally no issues in case of deodexed Android 6.0.1)
v3.5 (not released for G93xx):
- Improved root_from function (Android 5.1+) - added "setprop selinux.reload_policy 1" removal from init.rc (thanks to @Chainfire)
- Fixed bug in new alghoritm for checking whether stock recovery should be installed or not (introduced in v3.4)
- Added new functionality - installer will store a copy of patched stock kernel in /data for those who flashed custom kernel but for some reasons want to revert to the stock kernel (Android 5.1+)
v3.4 (not released for G93xx):
- Completely changed alghoritm for checking whether stock recovery should be installed or not (it applies to FlashFire users). Now it depends on previously used recovery (instead of checking KNOX flag which was not 100% reliable across devices/recoveries)
v3.32 (not released for G93xx):
- Updated set_csc, kcsc_backup, kcsc_restore functions to support more devices
- Updated partition detection algorithm to support more devices
- Fixed path to options.prop file placed in external sdcard in case of updating Marshmallow while using FlashFire
- Minor intaller's optimizations/bugfixes
v3.31 (not released for G93xx):
- Potential fix for reported problems with root (rare cases)
v3.3 (not released for G93xx):
- Improved method of reading options from ZIP file name (previous was directory/path sensitive also)
- Added support to mod_csc function for other than UNIX text format (it's a little ridiculous, but in case of some CSCs - original /system/csc/other.xml file has Windows or MAC text format!)
- Initial support for options.prop file in CRLF text format (DOS/Windows)
v3.21 (not released for G93xx):
- Fixed installer's issue if there is a [space] present in ZIP filename or a directory containing DevBase (see #1728)
v3.2 (not released for G93xx):
- Another improvements in add_initd function (details - see v1.3)
- Improvements in set_perm, set_perm_rec and root_from functions (recovery-independent structure)
- Improvements in deodex_from function related to Android MM
- New get_con function in the main sh script (useful for devs)
- BusyBox updated to 1.22.1 (bionic) [no, this is NOT a mistake!]
- Minor intaller's optimizations/bugfixes
v3.1 (not released for G93xx):
- Significantly improved "add_initd" function in the update-binary shell script. Added support for (probably) all available Samsung's platforms (e.g. Exynos) and all available firmwares (based on Android 4.4+)
- In case of installation with Xposed framework installer checks if Xposed Installer app is present in /data/app and installs it automatically if necessary
- Minor intaller's optimizations/improvements
v3.0 (not released for G93xx):
- Entire installer has been re-written from the scratch! All "magic" moved to update-binary which is a shell script. It opens up new possibilities never possible before!
- Introduced new customization method - you can change most frequently switched options just by renaming installer's ZIP file name. Currently supported "strings" in the file name:
"noroot" (means "do not root"), "deodex", "xposed", "initd" (no other comments are required, I hope..)
- Starting from v3.0 init.d support is disabled by default
v2.3 (not released for G93xx):
- Added option to install suitable Xposed framework in one step while installing DevBase (for maximum comfort). There is a new xframework.sh script - device independent structure and full Android 5.1+/6.0+ support. Backup method is compatible with well known Xposed uninstallers (tested with @wanam's)
v2.2 (not released for G93xx):
- Significantly improved root_supersu.sh script - device independent structure and full Android 5.1+/6.0+ suport including on the fly kernel/ramdisk/sepolicy patching if necessary. SU binaries are still copied to /system as it is the best choice in case of custom ROMs
- Changed order of performed operations in the updater-script due to new root_supersu.sh script advantages
- Installer wipes partitions designated for RAW content (e.g. kernel / recovery image) before writing to them
- Minor additions in dex_injector.sh script related to Android 6.0+
v2.11 (not released for G93xx):
- Fixed some minor installer's issues ("set_perm" function in set_csc.sh did not work correctly while using wildcards in the path (it was exclusively FlashFire issue! no problem with TWRP / CWM). Fortunately - only /system/etc/csc_*.txt were really "affected" - it didn't cause real issues as these files are empty)
v2.1 (not released for G93xx):
- As some people felt a bit disapointed / worried about DevBase v2.0 ROM file size - finally I have decided to debloat stock system.img (in same way as in v1.x => "Safe De-Bloat") and remove option to install all available bloatware. ROM file size has been reduced from about ~2GB to about ~1.6GB. Note for Devs / Chefs: Do not use Windows tools - you need Linux with "selinux" package installed (to handle SELinux contexts) to mount (rw) system.img safely. If you want to add / change any system content this way - remember about proper chown/chmod/chcon
- Added device check during install as flashing directly to EMMC block is potentially more risky for "other" devices. Installer will abort installation if device is not N910F (trlte(xx)). If you want to try this ROM on other N4 devices - you need to remove this check manually from updater-script (it is more conscious procedure)
v2.0 (not released for G93xx):
- Completely new concept of ROM development that makes it easy to build most tuned and nuanced custom ROMs. No more arduous manual analysis or (often) invalid permissions / SELinux contexts taken from a kitchen. The main idea is to flash original, stock /system image as EMMC block (in same way as PC Odin does) instead of extracting ZIP's contents to mounted partition, then setting permissions, then creating symlinks, etc. However, it requires more knowledge related to sh scripts as ALL necessary changes need to be done on the fly, while installing (e.g. by injecting modified classes.dex and/or modified images/xmls to /res/../* into an apk). There are no limits, all depends on your creativity!
- One common ZIP installer for Odexed and Deodexed ROM - you can control it by new "deodexed.rom" entry in options.prop (there is new dex_injector.sh script which can deodex on the fly the whole ROM using previously processed classes.dex files)
- ROM is still Safe De-Bloated by default but removing bloatware during install is not mandatory - you can control it by new "safe.debloat" entry in options.prop (there is new protection included to avoid overfilling /system in case of large size of additional MODs and/or large multi CSC package)
- Major improvements in csc_detect.sh script - it is able to detect previous CSC even in cases of flashing over e.g. CM based ROM and/or previously formatted system partition. However, if detected CSC is NOT included in my multi CSC package, in both mentioned cases it is still not possible to keep detected CSC (as there is no CSC related content to backup / restore)
- Improvements in all sh scripts - additional "metadata" entries in updater-script (related to processed contents) are not required
- Improvements in root_supersu.sh script - it is suitable for 32 and 64 bit OS
- Added full zip support from the command line
v1.x (initial version, further improvements, not released for G93xx):
- Built without using a kitchen. All set_metadata* / symlink entries are result of arduous manual analysis. For more info about the method - see hidden content for Devs / Chefs in THIS thread.
- New customization method without using Aroma (options.prop)
- Many useful scripts for easy installation: CSC applying/autodetection, backup/restore of security files, backup/restore of existing CSC package, XML modding on the fly, root, init.d support
- Many small changes and improvements "in the meantime" which I simply do not remember...
- Safe De-Bloated (see post #1 for details)

Optional MODs
[WORK IN PROGRESS, MODDING HAS LOW PRIORITY]
These modifications I have done personally using (bak)smali tools - these are NOT "borrowed" from other custom ROM, nor from someone else's thread (thanks to @majdinj, @tdunham, @Grouxho & @yash92duster for their excellent modding guides). All ZIP files are TWRP flashable:
>> MODs for SM-G93xF/FD <<
TIP: Are you tired with re-installing your favorite MODs every time you update this ROM? Just take advantage of the new DevBase feature, intruduced in v5.6 (see "Changelog"). It is enough to put your favorite apks and/or jars in /sdcard/devbase/system/(priv-)app (or ../framework) and these MODs will be detected & applied automatically every time you update this ROM. You can also use your /external_sd to store your favorite MODs (it is mandatory if you are using encryption).
Example for "G93xF_DisableHighVolumeWarning.zip" (modded SystemUI.apk):
- unzip SystemUI.apk file from my flashable MOD
- create /sdcard/devbase/system/priv-app/SystemUI directory
- place modded SystemUI.apk in above directory
Next time you will update my ROM - my installer will use modded SystemUI.apk instead of stock app included in my ROM
NOTE: Use this feature consciously and carefully! It may happen that your MOD is not compatible with a newer Samsung's base (especially in case of major Android update)! I will warn you about it, but only in case of MY MODs, I am not able to predict what kind of mods you are using.

Auto call recording and applock
Hi,
Does this rom have auto call recording and app lock?
if not, can you please give a flashable zip in mod section?
I like your pure stock based rom.
I will try today.
Thanks

This ROM contains "SYSTEMLESS DevBase" on-board. See screenshots here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/development/samsung-systemless-devbase-encryption-t3517178
As you can see - built-in Auto Call Recording will be also activated
It does not contain "AppLock" [...] EDIT: You can add it manually and it works well. More info here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72094528&postcount=86

Was my daily driver on S5, glad to see you here in S7 forum.
Wil definitely try the ROM. Good luck!

hi @_alexndr.
I am quite surprised at the performance of the stock kernel.
I've attached benchmark results, with default cpu n gpu settings
is it possible to toggle selinux (permissive) with included kernel?

Not yet.

Ok,thx. Because he wrote;
v4.1 (starting from G930FXXU1DQD2 DevBase):
- Since systemless Xposed does not need to be re-installed every new DevBase I will release (in case of using the same root solution) - it makes no sense to keep it anymore as installation option

battery very good..
4g always on
no battery-saving settings.

I've heard about your rom being the best there is at this moment. Congratulations.
Unfortunately i am on G935F and i and others can't enjoy it.
Will there be a version for G935x users?
Please consider it

Oi, don't work on my mi mix 2,stay in Xiaomi logo
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app

Avoid quoting the OP, we don't want to spend ages scrolling through stuff that's already in post 1

Great! Your recovery seems to b absolutely promising!
(I wish I had learned from the development earlier that would have saved a lot of time )
TwoFour questions:
- is en-/decryption proofed working for MIUI as well as LOS/RR/AOSP/AICP roms based on Android 7.0/7.1/8.0?
- could the theme be deactivated to let it look more stock?
- is touchscreen working for all the above ROM types and versions?
- inline kernel means prebuild? -> is there any possibility to have sources for that kernel and build config? This would help in fine tunig the device/recovery and stay on top in security point of view
If first question could be stated as yes then i can shut down my own research for a good stable recovery and would prefer yours for the community.

OK this makes dev & debugging very hard (... have an equal situation with mi mix that has been given to a friend and thats rarely available for debugging new builds).
Could you give some more information what repos/branches you've used for device-common, vedor-device & vedor-common (and maybe others) that are required to build your twrp-image for chiron?
Thanks mate!

All sources are given in 2nd post.
You'll have to use 7.1 build system with RW recovery sources, clone device tree and build.

This usually happens when you don't add older device-qcom-common repos (for cm13/cm14) with crypt_hw and if you have no vendor files.
Is it possible you have those files&folders on your build environment from older builds or for other devices?

OK build was possible with this but also got stuck while booting - even with other prebuild kernel images.
Maybe there are some config scripts in recovery/root that are showstoppers.
... will have a look to that tomorrow/maybe weekend.

How to install miui OTA updates:
1- Follow this guide [Red Wolf] Install TWRP and root your device without breaking incremental OTA's!
2- Change OTA Survival trigger path from to "META-INF/com/miui_miui_update" to "META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary".
Warning:
Please remember that recovery with password protection isn't still a full protection for your phone. Red Wolf can only prevent unauthorized access to your device from recovery. But your device can be still reinstalled using fastboot or Miflash.

Why should we use this over the other TWRP that you posted?
Also the other twrp is the latest 3.2.2 and this is 3.2.1
What do you recommend to use for Xiaomi.eu and magisk?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It has more features than the standard TWRP.
If you are more fimiliar with TWRP then you should probably go with it. But if you want to test some new things out, go ahead and flash RWRP
Cheers

Thanks for your work. This TWRP works very well. I just could not find the features for not breaking the OTA updates (checked the Red Wolf settings) Are they incorporated into this tWRP (in Redmi yes but this too?) Thanks (maybe a screenshot might help if someone could show me where those settings are)
From the Redmi guide (link in the OP)
"Now click on icon on the top - section with RedWolf specific settings.
Here find and enable this checkbox: "Support OTA Survival trigger package"
(this is what I could not find in this TWRP) even otherwise awesome work!

I have one issue now.
I had this recovery installed before but tried Orange fox.
Now when I installed this recovery again the reboot menu don't work.
Pressing either reboot system, recovery or turn off the phone won't do that.
It just hangs in the process and I have to hold the powerbutton to turn it off.
Can this be fixed?

Migrate - custom ROM migration tool

Very useful application. Now compatible with A11. You can also transfer apps & data from Stock EMUI firmware (of course, only third-party applications, it is logical) .
You will need a "three apks kombo" :
- Basic apk:
