[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] jmckeejr:
HyBriD_S_aTe (S8)​

This is a project I've been working on for a while and I decided to share in case anyone wants to use it or has anything to add to make it better. I am not a programmer but dabble in Mods and Tweaks (Google is the best teacher). The Rom is in process, once there is pretty stable version I will have to stop from developing so much, as I'm already in the dog house.

First and foremost, much thanks to all developers here on XDA especially [MENTION=2256297]drewiskee[/MENTION], for his Telenougat Rom which this Rom is meant to resemble somewhat while including some changes for my personal preference. Also thanks to [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION] for the original contributions that made Telenougat possible. As I'm short on time I will add mentions as i think of them.

DISCLAIMER:

Your warranty is now void, nothing can change that so why not try some Roms and Tweaks.
I hold no liability of your device breaks, bricks, burns up, kills you or anyone else. Yada yada blah.

ROM FEATURES:

Based on stock firmware

Added features from S8 system dump (Touchwiz,Bixby,Phone,Calculator,SmartClipEdge,SamsingFlow,Members,Whitepages Called it, Spam detection in settings, Widgets on lockscreen, Reminder, ... really anything that would work)

Su.d support

Init.d Support

Init.d Tweaks, build prop tweaks, CSC tweaks...... you name it

Magisk Root

Hotspot mod

Viper V4A sound mod working out of the box - REMOVED V1.1.0 (this can be added via magisk module)

Reboot menu in notification panel (this based on Telenougat with some edits) - v1.1.8 Themed like s8 power menu

Bixby home page (hide video card for no force closes.)

This includes some personal apps as its a personal Rom so just disable what you don't use - as of v1.1.0 some can be uninstalled via regular uninstall under settings>apps

Mods will be added as I get them to post 2

Center clock hides on lockscreen

I've created a custom Google widget that resembles S8 with some major differences (there's a battery meter around the Google icon, current weather shows instead of "Say OK Google", and the widget changes while charging). - Create widget on home page, choose Zooper 4x1, click on it after placed and select "New Style G bar" (or something else if you prefer)

Knox removed

Deodexed

V1.1.8 - Added flashlight, screen recording, screenshot, download to power menu with options in ROM control

V1.1.8 - Added Quick Launcher to recents with options in ROM control (some require reboot)

V1.1.8 - change color of Quick reboot menu in notification panel in ROM control

v1.1.8 - Trial themes > permanent in ROM control

V1.1.8 - Quickly change the "Set as Default" option in ROM control

V1.1.8 - many other options in ROM control

V1.1.8 - System > Official in About device

V1.1.8 - add Greenify, Rounded corners, Adaway, several others found in ROM control (hidden from launcher)

Built in battery bar or Energy bar in ROM control

More

I tried to go with the most features with keeping function

Some unwanted Sprint bloat removed

APPS INCLUDED

L Speed (this will make the device fly if maxed out and Aggressive Doze saves a ton of battery life)

Energy Bar beta (battery bar at top of status bar).

Alternate File explore option with Root support

Bixby Reminder (shortcut in Bixby home can be added to home screen)

All in One Gestures (customize buttons, swipes, whatever)

PLANNED FOR FUTURE:

Add Flashlight and Recovery to Power Menu

Integrate RomControl (this will take some time, as I am not a programmer by trade I am a flooring installer)

Check for bugs? I'm unable to test everything myself hence the posting of da Rom.

ADD-ONS and MODS:

INSTRUCTIONS:

- Google search "how to flash a custom ROM"

-developer options>OEM unlock must stay ticked from here on out or you will brick

- full wipe recommended (update builds can be dirty. Only if already on Hybrid S8 Rom)

-TWRP Recovery, wipe System, Cache, Data, Delvik Cache.

- Flash, reboot and wait about 10 minutes.

** Wipe System, Cache, and Delvik cache when updating between builds. If issues then do full wipe. **

I will not be dealing with questions that can be answered via Google.

V1.1.8 Final Final FIXED 7/12/17 Most likely my last update, I ordered an S8+ (although now that I have it there's not much difference and I like the feel of the s6 edge plus a little more). Updated items are above in Rom features section.

HyBriD S_aTe V1.1.6 - updated many apps, install non play store apps by default, no signature check (making easier to update system apps), ROM now says "official" in about screen, added reboot recovery to power menu, changed default wallpapers, changed default lock screen wallpaper to "HyBriD ROM" custom paper, included a dark theme to set by Theme store>my themes (changed to default icons instead of theme icons), more changes.

MIRROR v1.1.6

V1.1.3

- Enable stock battery animation, battery in quicksettings, remove couple apps(install from play store free), changed default wallpapers and added s8 wallpapers, enable install non play store apps by default, disable app verification(experimental), everything should be running well and I am going to focus on mods rather than Rom for a while. Any mods can be flashed via recovery or i will be working on magical modules soon.

v1.1.0 -Final (fix hotspot, hopefully fix avatars in messages, floating_features.xml additions, change in user apps method, remove V4A - future mods will be via flash or magisk for stability, updates and more)

V1.0.7 - final

It takes less time to hit the thumbs up "thanks" button than it takes to download my file. I'm not asking for anything else, don't be lazy.
