Great! I suspect superuser is for adb function. I haven’t tried to see how useful it is.

Do you’ve energy & time to update to Android security update February / March 2025:

e-2.8-a14-20250310-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvS
e-2.8-a14-20250227-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bvN

@Colors, please let me know

how I can donate you a Red Bull Energy Drink / Sugarfree / Zero / White Edition / Blue Edition / Purple Edition / Spring Edition :baby_bottle: or a Lavazza Espresso Italiano Cremoso :coffee:

No Red Bull please! Aber ich würde gerne einen Kaffee Lavazza Espresso Italiano Cremoso trinken. I’ll do my best aber es wird eine Weile dauern.

Are you sure it is not Version 2.9-a14?

Whether U-2.8 or U-2.9 is not decisive. My aim is to achieve the highest possible Android security level (02/03-2025).

boots & works at first glance except for the App Lounge (which is not the cause of the GSI)

Thank you! It turns out that the power consumption is also slightly lower… but it still needs to be checked. Okay, the superuser version I’ll compile tomorrow. Until then a starry night to all.

App Lounge 2.13.2
sometimes works more, sometimes less, so a bit bumpy, but better than nothing. Let’s hope it gets better again with App Lounge v2.13.5

I have included FDroid as a second option to App Lounge.

It’s your great work @Colors, it’s your CUSTOM GSI :clap:

Thanks for testing. Initially my intention was not to make a custom version. However, the intervention is minimal. But the App Lounge problem persists and I think an alternative is needed. Another problem, I think, is the Gms which apparently consumes a lot of energy. I do not know, maybe it would be an option also a real vanilla version? It must be studied…

To my ears CUSTOM sounds more sympathetic, my eyes read CUSTOM with positive associations. /e/OS GSI VANILLA would also have the advantage that the user can choose whether he wants to use MicroG services or not.

@Colors I’ve had good experiences with other vanilla GSI + CustomROM with MinMicroG-Minimal-UPDATELY-20241211010238 ( 11 Dec 2024 ) = GMS 0.3.5.240913
