Feasibility of deodexing MAD nougat ROM ? - JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers

First of all, thanks to the MAD team for providing the community with such mind blowingly awesome rom support. Your dedication is truly inspiring.
I have a question however : would it be feasible to provide a deodexed version of this ROM for those of us using microg ? Tingle can't patch the latest stable version and I haven't been able to deodex it "by hand".
If this would require too much work, please feel free to ignore me. You are doing a lot for us as it is.
Any pointers anyone could give towards a solution would of course be greatly appreciated. I have tried various methods described on these boards without luck.
Sorry to be a bother and thanks again.

I used to de-odex Jiayu.de LP firmware using SuperRs_Kitchen.
I have not tried madOS yet. I actually do not need it and doing so was just for fun proof of concept.
However, it still somewhat strikes me that plenty both /system .odex and dalvik-cache .dex files exist which are almost equal. There sure seems to be redundancy.
e.g.:
/system/app/EasterEgg/oat/arm64/EasterEgg.odex
and
/data/dalvik-cache/arm64/[email protected]@[email protected]@classes.dex
I recall deodexing made a lot of room in /system.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I haven't managed to deodex the nougat ROM via kitchen yet but I'll give it another try.

And it worked! Thanks a lot. Now to get unifiednlp to work...

Hi, I just deodexed the latest Mad-ROM for my S3+ using superr's kitchen. Next I want to patch for signature spoofing with Tingle. The goal is obviously to install microg or at least unifiednlp in order to make commercial apps downloaded with Yalp store fully working.
Did you get unifiednlp to work on MadOS? I read that in order to make it work on Nougat ROMs it must be moved to /system/priv-app/ - anything else, any other obstacles?

It's actually quite straightforward. Simply use nanomod and everything will be fine .

Wow. I did not know about NanoMod before. Thanks for putting me into the right direction. My Jiayu S3 is now running with microG and Yalp store instead of GAPPS/Play store.

Glad to have been able to help. Enjoy being google free .

If you'll unzip the gapps and look at the g.prop file you'll see this is actually a slim gapps (see screenshot).
This is not the first time that @Bobbi lim takes credit for things he didn't do, for example his ROMs optimization which he claim are something unique he invented and he refuse to share is actually an init.d nitro mod which he refused to give credit and when confronted he gets angry...

[ROM][7.1][NOUGAT][TESTING] CyanogenMod14.1-cohaolain [UNOFFICIAL]

Hey guys!
To prevent the other CM14.1 thread from getting too crowded I'll be putting my own builds up here
These builds will be based on the official source except I'll keep adding in new features and fixes before they're officially merged, and I'll be putting in some other small changes along the way if I feel they improve the experience without compromising on anything else
Currently working:
//All battery status indicators are fixed
//Pocket mode
Modifications:
//'Unofficial' tag removed from CyanogenMod version. It just made me squirm with the lack of aesthetic. Of course this is still an unofficial version!
Updated (//): 16.11.03

In my testing I haven't experienced any call echo. And I can't test video chat apps right now, so you'd have to check for that yourself mate, or wait for someone else to let you know here, sorry about that
No problem anyway mate, I'm only doing this on a learning curve. That said, I'm open to suggestions and requests, but they should be submitted without much expectation. This is my first ROM, and I'm pretty new to Android development. I can try my best, but I'm no expert. Although I do love a challenge, I can't make any guarantees
But for now I'm going to try and get Google Assistant working by default. We'll see after that
Great! When I have time I'll definitely give it a try.

Sorry mate, but I don't want to make such drastic changes, particularly ones that most people don't need
I think the setup wizard should stay, and that selinux is fine just the way it is.

Can you include your personal Github sources such as device and kernel tree in the 1st post to actually see what changes you've done so far at the moment?

If somebody could help me with this it'd be appreciated:
When ro.product.model=Pixel XL is added, 'Device model' in settings>about phone changes to Pixel XL, but when it's removed completely, it reverts back to ONEPLUS A300*.
Question is, when building, how can I make it skip checking the build.prop for the device name and just make it select the device name it defaults to when it's not specified in the build.prop, and where is this check located in source?
Thanks,

I think its not possible( maybe I'm wrong in here) to change device model when you're building as it might create errors during build process. You might need to create a separate bash script I believe, for users to change that afterwards while flashing the ROM. Or create an Aroma Installer to give user an option to do that if he/she wants to.

Possibly yeah.
I ran a build that included the two lines to enable Google Assistant, it just ended up discarding the Pixel XL line like it had never been put in there at all.
Google Assistant ran fine for a while, until I cleared Google''s data. Assistant comes up straight after the wipe, but goes back to Now on Tap again afterwards.
Can i install aroma installer open gapps 7.1 on this? If yes how.. I flashed it on this rom but then on booting google services are crashing continuously play store is also not opening.. So some can help plz on this?

Xposed watch thread (Nougat Offical now from Rovo89 10/8/2017)

EDIT 10/9/2017
Finally! I know you've been waiting for official Xposed for Nougat for a long time, and here it is. You'll find the download links in the usual place (see first post). Make sure to also use Xposed Installer 3.1.2 (update is also in first post).
If you'd like to know what exactly you've been waiting for, check out this XDA article. Besides much background information on Xposed and its history, it includes a detailed statement by myself about what you'll get on top of the unofficial versions. You can find that statement right above the "Conclusion" headline, click the box to show it.
Note that I've also released new binaries for Marshmallow and Lollipop, although the changes are very minor. Mostly, they ensure that all releases are in sync.
I'd like to thank @wanam for testing and helping to fix the remaining bugs. He also tested it on the Samsung GS7. Also thanks to XDA for their continued support and for providing the infrastructure. And finally, thanks to you for being patient with me, coming up and implementing the new concept really took a long time (that I didn't always have).

Xposed Framework is one of the most popular Android modifications available as it enables users to install modules that will add specific functionality to their current firmware. This requires a lot of work and is why it takes XDA Senior Recognized Developer rovo89 so long to develop after a new major update of Android is released.
The community has been clamoring for an update that adds compatibility to Android 7.0 Nougat and it now looks like there’s a method.

I searched forum titles here for "xposed" and didn't get any hits.
I'm honestly more looking forward to getting Xposed than I am TWRP.
Not by much, but just a bit. I really, really need some of my modules back asap.
Most of all, root hider. Though that probably won't work with our current root and there are other options anyways.
Still though... Xposed watch for Nougat.
Latest update as of yesterday:
rovo89 on 11/06/2016 said:
Current status for Nougat: Hooks are generally working now. However, they're still unreliable for inlined methods and when JIT is used (which is often the case). I had give a few technical insights here. I'm currently thinking about the different situations that need to be handled and I create unit tests for them. Then I need to fix those which are failing or even crashing the device - ideally without recompiling the whole ROM like in previous versions. Not sure if the latter is possible though.

A couple sad replies in the Xposed forum over the last day....
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed
---------------
[acejavelin]
Xposed is not compatible with Nougat, the truth is it may never be a viable option again due to security changes in Android. The developers have said that Xposed is on it's last legs, the changes in Android and the security are becoming impossible to work around. Remember last year at this time, the developers of Xposed had mostly given up and thrown in the towel and said Xposed was dead with Marshmallow, but they got lucky and found a work around just before completely giving up. They have not as yet found such a exploit to make it work, and if they do it will only be temporary as the next version of Android will probably close it again. They may get it to work with Nougat, or maybe not, either way best bet is to learn to live without it, because it will be gone before too long.
---------------
---------------
[C3C076]
Just to shed more light into this as I found it a bit misleading.
Making xposed compatible with nougat is not about "finding an exploit". It is about extending Android Runtime (ART) by adding additional functionality which is necessary for modules to be able to utilize hooking into runtime execution flow (e.g. to be able to hook on method calls).
Yes, security also plays a role but I wouldn't say it's a major contributor when it comes to Xposed development.
ART evolves and gets complicated over time which requires a developer to find new ways of implementing Xposed extensions. This process takes time and still it does not guarantee solution for full compatibility of xposed as we know it is found.
---------------
Nothing new from Rovo himself since his last post in November on the subject.
Still not looking awesome.
Update from a few days ago...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
Rovo... said:
It seems that more and more people get nervous about whether (and when) there will be Xposed for Nougat or not, so I felt I should say something.
Why does it take that long? Because with every release, I try to ensure that Xposed integrates nicely with the improvements in the new ART version. The step from Lollipop to Marshmallow wasn't huge. It was an evolution, some things even made it possible to integrate Xposed in a more elegant way. On the whole, it was mainly careful porting than rather innovating.
With Nougat, something fundamental has changed. If you're using Nougat already, you'll have noticed that installations are much faster now. That's because APKs aren't compiled immediately (AOT), but start in (slower) interpreting mode. Sounds bad, but they have enabled JIT, which will quickly compile those methods that are used very often. That will restore the well-known and constantly improving performance of native code. Besides that, ART keeps a list of these frequently used methods ("profiling"). When the device is idle, it finally does the AOT compilation, but based on the profiling data. After that, you get the great performance right after starting the app. JIT is still waiting in case the usage patterns change, and I think it will also adjust the profile and improve the AOT compilation.
That results in various different compilation states and more complexity. Besides that, there were many issues in the past caused by Xposed's need to recompile the whole ROM and all apps: It sometimes caused boot loops when the odex files were too heavily pre-optimized, it blocked quite some storage space to store the recompiled files, and I needed to disable some optimizations like inlining and direct pointer calls. I hope that I can make use of the JIT compiler to avoid that in Nougat. If Xposed knew from where a method is called, it could invalidate the callers' compiled code, so that they would temporarily use the interpreter. If they're important enough, JIT will recompile them.
I have already done a lot of research and experiments for this and I'm currently trying to implement this. But as you can imagine, all of that is much effort and can easily take hundreds of hours. That's net (working) time, not real time. If I worked on Xposed 24 hours a day, that might be done within a week or two. But, in the last year or so, my "time for Xposed stuff" was about 5 hours a week, sometimes more and sometimes less. You can do the math yourselves... There are just so many other (non-technical) things that I need or want to do. If you substract the time it took me to build the new installer version, move the repo to a new server and restore compatibility with the Nov 2016 security patches, that's even less time for new stuff.
So yes, I'm still working on Nougat support, whenever my free time allows it, but I don't have any idea when it will be done. Once it's done, you'll know.

I really don't understand this post. If users would like to keep updated they can watch the Xposed thread.
That quote from Rovo even says he will do it when he has free time and feels like it. So it will be awhile.

The community has been clamoring for an update that adds compatibility to Android 7.0 Nougat and it now looks like there’s a method.

Yeah just about to try one of the zips from the xposed general thread
Sent from my Pixel XL using XDA Labs
Awesome, I just got home and read only a blip about it so far while I was stuck in bumper traffic.
Sounds like it needs to be rolled with a ROM though?
You can't just flash it on top?
If it DOES need to be rolled with the ROM, then that might suck.
So many ROM developers HATE xposed. ugh
I sure hope Resurrection Remix will be xposed friendly.
And that the four or five modules I really really miss will get Nougat xposed updates.
Looks like this might be the Nougat Xposed thread?
[XPOSED] [NOUGAT] [WORK] Xposed SDK25 for all arch

It's not started by Rovio though.
And another one.

Yeah I tried both zips but big surprise our borked TWRP is unable to mount system read only properly with the script. Most likely needs to be tweaked for our system/system setup or whatever.

I seem to have got the zips to both install using flashfire but am running into the same issues as some others are but that's to be expected this early on.

Don't think I did get it installed after all. It is good to see there may be hope though. Hopefully our weird recovery hiccups don't screw it up.

Nope, not really available yet.
At least nothing supported or stable.
Per Rovio just a little while ago:
And just to add to my reply above:
Imagine [if] I published my current WIP now. I bet that some people would publish it as their build, without any warnings that it's incomplete and not intended to be used productively.

NVM...... Just read your message thoroughly...
Any sign of a savior from our dual slot no xposed hell? :crying:
Finally! I know you've been waiting for official Xposed for Nougat for a long time, and here it is. You'll find the download links in the usual place (see first post). Make sure to also use Xposed Installer 3.1.2 (update is also in first post).
If you'd like to know what exactly you've been waiting for, check out this XDA article. Besides much background information on Xposed and its history, it includes a detailed statement by myself about what you'll get on top of the unofficial versions. You can find that statement right above the "Conclusion" headline, click the box to show it.
Note that I've also released new binaries for Marshmallow and Lollipop, although the changes are very minor. Mostly, they ensure that all releases are in sync.
I'd like to thank @wanam for testing and helping to fix the remaining bugs. He also tested it on the Samsung GS7. Also thanks to XDA for their continued support and for providing the infrastructure. And finally, thanks to you for being patient with me, coming up and implementing the new concept really took a long time (that I didn't always have).

Not working on Pure Nexus 7.1.2 with Magisk 14.2 for many people. Not complaining by any means, super happy that I have my phone pretty much how I want it with PN and Magisk, just letting others know.
Rovo89 (the Xposed creator) says it works on his Pixel?

Custom ROM options for SM-T377W

Hello fellow XDA users,
My niece's low end Samsung tablet is extremely slow, even after factory resetting the device.
I used to own one of these devices two years ago, but unfortunately the developer of the old custom rom is no longer able to supply the files or anything to do with the custom rom.
What options do I have for this?
Any help is welcome,
Thank you for reading this!
There's saboorROM, which is the one you're talking about, but its not available as you said.
Lineage OS 15.1 is also available for the t377p, but its in beta and most people are reporting bugs for it, so i wouldnt recommend that, alas, you have no other option so here it is:
[UNOFFICIAL][ROM] LineageOS/Go 15.1 for Galaxy Tab E [SM-T377P/SM-T560NU]
LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 8.1 (Oreo), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device. LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project...

Here's TWRP:
[RECOVERY][TWRP]Samsung Tab E - sm-t560/sm-t561/sm-t560nu/sm-t377p - Update 13/4/2016
Unofficial release -TWRP recovery for the TAB E, both Qualcom and Spreadtrum models Update: TWRP now version 3.0.2-1 https://twrp.me/site/update/2016/02/05/twrp-3.0.0-0-released.html...

Flash at your own risk, and make sure to take a twrp backup. I wouldnt recommend flashing the lineage rom tho.. I'd recommend rooting your device and optimising it.

You don't happen to have a copy of SaboorROM do you? The owner no longer does
Thanks for the help btw
no, sadly i dont. maybe try making a new thread and asking in anyone has it. even if they have it installed to their device, they could pull it via a twrp backup and send it to you.
Hey, I just happened to stumble across this thread. I installed saboor rom on my tab sm-t337w quite a while ago and happen to still have the zip file. what would be the best way to share it?

Hello, a question from a tab e t377V model. I am not familiar with android tablets, and have messed with some custom roms for androids long ago.
If my function with the tab doesn't extend beyond video, reading, and occasional web surfing- I would think optimising it is indeed best, as long as it will be much faster than what I have right now. Sorry to mention it, but just having it be as responsive as my ipad will be fine. Is there any steps videos avialable to do what you mentioned properly? Thank you!

optimising it is mainly just removing bloatware, and also possibly a kernel manager to boost performance.

Sounds good. Can you link or let me know where I can find the steps to do this? Thank you.
look for a debloat guide. You can do it via adb, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to find a guide for your device. Anywho, just install a root uninstaller app from the playstore and remove extra bloat (be careful though, as you could accidentally brick your device, take a twrp backup before messing with anything). For the kernel manager, I use smartpack kernel manager from the play store, I've also used performance tweaker and it seems to be alright as well.

Er did some searching around, and as you mentioned, there isn't a clear guide for this tablet. If it is not available for this one, can you refer me to a general debloat guide that might be "the best fit" for the tab e? thanks for your continued help.
